this story line is so true and down to earth. Most pop songs are about happiness or breaking up with your ex, but this song is about a teenage mother trying to bring up her baby and keep him safe whilst she tries to bring a bit of money in by pole dancing and entertaining men at a pub. The dad's not there and she's trying to bring up her child so he can have a nice life unlike hers. It's one of those songs that you have to really listen to the lyrics to actually know what the song's about. It's sad but it has a great tune. My favourite song at the moment.

My wife died one year ago and this lyrics remind me of her, she was a very good mom for my son. Rest in peace Maria Salchichon and thank you.

It’s May 2024 let’s see how many legends are listening to this masterpiece 🫶

Who is watching this in 2017?

I'm a single parent to a six year old... he is my life..the fact that he's father barely cares doesnt bother me, I dont have time to be bothered I'm to busy working hard for a better life for my son its not always easy but Momma gotta do what Momma must do..My son has made me a better person on so many levels I never knew my own strength till I had him Finally a song that celebrates us single momma's

Deadlift workout music right here 💖 *a u t h e n t I c v i e w s* 💖 dun took Clean Bandit oFf 2 da big leagues and for dat I will always be super grate

Who listen in 2024?

I never met my mum because she died while she was giving me birth. When my older sister learned about that she blamed me, she said it was my fault that our mum is dead. We still have our dad who loves us very much but I sometimes believe it is my fault that she is dead. Sometimes I imagine how my life would be if I had a mum. So guys you should love your mum,not everyone is so lucky.

There is three dialect of English; -England -USA -Sean Paul

may 2024 and lets see how many legends are still listening to this song. 👇🏻(not forcing)

We don't look for old songs, We look for old memories Really great song.

The 10k who disliked this video had too much tears that they didnt see where the like button was and tought the dislike button was the like button :D

Its April 2024, let's see how many legends are listening to this incredible song 👇

My mom has survived cancer twice, standing next to me always till the end I just pray she remains next to me, nothing can againts her. My warrior, my heroine... I love her so much ❤

I really do believe that the pole dancing that this mother does as a job in this video also symbolizes all the jobs that mothers have to do that aren't socially acceptable,all the struggle at any point in order to raise their babies(because let's face it,we're always babies to them). My mother is not single but we're talking about mothers in here....she's worked very hard to raise me,she's amazing. "Facing the hard life without no fear Just see and know that you really care 'Cause any obstacle come you well prepared" Shout out to her and all the mothers that are pure miracles themselves and badasses. We freaking love you.

There is a story behind people's actions don't look down on others because you really don't know whats happening in their life. That person working in Mc'Donanlds is on their way to finishing their law degree, or just escaped an abusive relationship and this is the only job they could manage to find to carry themselves. Or maybe that pole dancer has a child to take care of. We don't know so we should treat everyone with respect. Edit: Or you know what, if they are happy with their job, they don't have to be aiming any 'higher'. We respect people, from the get go, no matter what because we are all still humans. ( major thanks to +wildbohemiangirl for reminding that we don't have to have a story to be respected.)

June 2024 Anyone??🔥🔥

After 7 years, I returned to listen to this masterpiece

May 2024 Anyone??❤

Friends who are still listening to this song in 2024, please come forward!! Every time I feel sad or depressed, I unconsciously want to listen to this song

I find this song is especially beautiful because i was dumped in front of an adoption center or whatever when i was only a few month old. And this song is exactly what i believe and hope what was going through my blood mothers mind when she did it. "Your life aint going to be nothing like my life, i'm going to do what i got to do". I ended up in a great family in Iceland and it's all good :) Sorry if this isn't important but i just had to write this here because i've been thinking about this for a while now.

I have little sister,and she is single mom,this songs remind me of her,she's a strong little woman,and my nephew would be a great man one day ♡♡♡♡

They played it at my highschool graduation 🥲 this song really touches my heart, raised by a single parent who wants the best for me.

I’m here on April 1st 2024

Life doesn't come with a manual, its comes with a mother.. !!!

I'm a mother of two, listening to this song made me cry.

I jamming to the song, dancing, humming... then when I saw the lyrics, its about life of a single mother. well ._. kinda feel bad

Can people stop focusing on making fun of Sean Paul and actually talk about the beautiful message this song gives about mothers?

Who is watching this 2024 🚶🏻‍♂️

“NO ONE’S EVER GONNA HURT YOU LOVE, I’M GONNA GIVE YOU ALL MY LOVE. YOU’LL GONNA GROW AND HAVE A GOOD LIFE. I’M GONNA DO WHAT I GOT TO DO” Crying to this song. This reminds me of how strong I become the moment I heard my baby’s first cry. I made an oath to the heavens that I will take good care of her in all ways possible. She made me into somebody that can both protect and support her. I’m sure my young self is proud of what I have become.

Thought that was Sia singing at first. Anyone else? Great song though. 😂😂

It is this type of songs that u cant stop hearing over and over

7 years after and just now I realise the meaning of the lyrics and the video ....

Thanks clean bandit you made my day better

My mom and dad got divorced because my father was really really toxic and did not know how to love at all. I remember when she first told me that he was cheating on her with another woman, and her sad stories of how he always treated her badly. But still, she stands strong and keeps going for me, my brother, my sister, and her OWN life. To all those who come from broken families, whether you are mothers, or hurting children or teenagers, you are warriors. We are all warriors and survivors of a broken family. Fight on for your future!!! Edit: Heyy everyone just clearing up, i did NOT share this comment to lament and complain and share to the whole world about my family situation, I shared this comment for the sole purpose of hopefully giving hope to others who might be in the same situation. I dont know if it applies to everyone, but i know that some people who are hurting and may not have anyone to talk to about what is hurting him/her may relate to my experiences, and they may feel less alone in this fight against the darkness they feel inside.

OMG my mom cried on this song

Anyone in May 2024..✅🔥?

هل من أحد هنا 2024

who is from 2017 febraury

This video make pole dancing look so elegant and beautiful. And the pole dancer is so pretty.

The most beautiful song in the world. This is for all the good mothers who always put their children above everything ❤ I admire you very much.
