So, this is probably the most controversial songs GC has ever done.. and yet it's one of the most influential.. To me, along with a lot of gc fans, this is the song that means the most. Well for me it certainly does.
i've gone through a hell of a lot of sh!t in my life... and I'm only just coming up 20.. I've gone through periods where I don't feel old enough or responsible enough to deal with certain situations and yet I've had to... I've felt like I've just had enough and I've felt amazingly happy. Emotions are a weird thing, and for me this song triggers a lot of emotion...
I know what it feels like to just want to get away from everything and end it all..
I know what it feels like to be 'left behind' and to be 'still here'..
To me this song is so positive, I know any time that I am feeling down about something, that I want to give in, that listening to this song will make me see sense, as it's time for me, no-one is really telling me what to do, or how I should feel, it's me. That things do get better and it is worth not giving up, not necessarily on life but on certain things... Be it a career or anything... that with enough perseverance things can work out...
Rip me about this if you will, I just felt I had to mention this song on here, as I've been feeling a bit down recently and listening to this has given me the drive to carry on :-)
What do you all think of this song?
So true... it'd a timeless song... although I agree with Pirate Steph that in some ways march on is the new hold on.. but it is less controversial... march on is clearly a song about looking forward and getting through, its not quite as dark as hold on... but still, totally agree. :)
