Anyone in 2024?

I was 45 when this came out. Little did I know the chilling accuracy of these words, "I'm 45 for a moment, the sea is high and I'm heading into a crisis." My crisis was breast cancer. I'm 63 for a moment and looking back with gratitude on these last 17 breast-cancer-free years. Each day, each breath is a gift.

I’m 60 years old. I can’t listen to this song without crying. Ever. Life is so fast and fleeting….

This song always hits me.. My father was 99 when this came out.. he lived to be a glorious 106!! and when I would ask him, of course he said it went fast.. the 70 yrs I had with him went fast enough.. now my granddaughters ask me.. and I say it's going too fast..All we have is what the Lord gives us.. live faithful and true to Him..

My son committed suicide at 15, this song makes me wish at 15, he would have known there was still time for him , miss you forever Matt

I was 25 when this song came out and I thought I was invincible. Now I'm 42. Savor every moment, kids. It all passes so quickly. Don't fall into routine. Challenge yourselves. And most importantly, don't be afraid to love.

My son passed from suicide almost a year ago. How my heart grieves for his goodnes. Such an amazing man, tortured with demons and addiction. Cherish your loved ones

I am 76 years old. My husband - my Love - passed in 2018. This song was one of his favorites and mine. On trips we listened and sang along with this song many times. It lifted our hearts and reminded us of the numbers already lived and the numbers to come.

Two weeks shy of 70. Still with the love of my life. Still this song makes me weep.

About to turn 63. I lost my wife of 34 years, treasure of my life, a bit over 4 years ago. This video always results in me bawling like a baby. CHERISH YOUR LOVED ONES! EVERY SECOND!!

This song reminds me......I married my husband in 1968. We were married almost 48 yrs when he died in 2016. 😢 Wow! Time went by so fast. Hard to believe. He was such a wonderful person and loved by so many. Spent his life helping others. Miss him so much ❤

My son was born the year this came out. He’s 20 now. I was 31. Now I’m 51. He’s in college. I’m still a teacher. Older but still have the heart of the 30 year old. I have Lupus now and cancer slowed me down. But I’m here.

The older you get the more relevant you realize this song is 🎼.

52 years old now. Married my high school sweetheart. Kids are grown and married or engaged. Life goes by quickly. Cherish every moment you have. There is no such thing as wasted time with the ones we love.

I heard this song tonight played for a friend who was celebrating her 90th birthday. Just wanted to say that my wife and I were married at 18 and 17, and we're now 71 and 70, and still married to each other. We lost a daughter six years ago to breast cancer at age 41. Never take time for granted; it passes too quickly. Love the people in your life while you can. I would also add that our faith in Jesus has carried us through many storms of life. Blessings to you all.

I turned 70 this year and I still hope to meet the love if my life because I don’t think I have yet. I don’t feel young - but I also don’t know why I’m supposed to feel old. I’m not waiting though, doing insane travelling on my own. I don’t want more regrets. I don’t wait for companions or approval. Within my modest means I’m living a big life. I’m blessed.

once a wise man said, "Finding old music you used to love is like getting back in touch with an old friend."

This song played almost incessantly as I drove over warm and beautiful mountain roads with my youngest son Daniel in the car. We both loved the song. Daniel only got 12 1/2 years. He died of sudden arrhythmic death syndrome suddenly in 2008. He truly deserved a hundred years. I can't hear the song without seeing his smile and feeling the warm breeze of those days. Thank you.

If you can somehow make it through the song without crying, reading the comments will start the tears flowing. With every passing year, this song becomes richer, and deeper in meaning. I can't believe I'll be 60 next year. I lost my father last year, man that was hard. So many good people gone over the past twenty years. But at the same time, I'm blessed with two beautiful boys and maybe I'll have grandchildren in a few years...still so much to look forward to. Not really sure how many more 'moments' I'll get. I'll be happy with 40 more healthy ones. Time to meet my grandkids, time to deepen my friendships, time to accomplish a few more of my writing goals. And maybe time for Paris...somehow never found the time to go there.

When a song makes you think, reflect, and feel - you're listening to a masterpiece.

It hits you harder every year you come back to revisit this song.

I love how this song simultaneously makes you feel old and young at exactly the same time.

My Dad passed away at 93 and I had this played with a video of his life at his memorial service. I don't think there was a dry in the chapel. Still hard for me to listen to without tearing up. Thanks for such a powerful song.

I was in my 40’s when this came out. I’m 70 now. I still think this song is profound.

Danced with my wife to this song at our wedding in 2004. 15 years and 3 kids later, we still find time to dance when we hear this song.

Don't ever rush to grow up. Have fun while u can, get dirty, scrap a knee, and get into trouble....just enjoy ur life and enrich others with ur radiating light

Heard it in a store two days, and listened to it about 50 times since then. Lots of crying and thoughts of being 15, when my mom, dad, and grandma were still alive. I heard it On April 27th, which happened to be the day Mom went to Heaven 34 years ago, Now at 71, I still miss her like crazy. She only got to be a grandma for one year, but knew we were expecting our second child when the Lord called her. And we named our third child, our daughter after my Grandma and Mom, the two kindest, sweetest, and strongest ladies God ever made. I will continue playing this and cry each time. Young people, don't waste a minute, as this old timer wasted more than I care to remember. Enjoy each day the Good Lord gives you.

Man. I first heard this when I was 15. I'm 30 now, 3 kids, wife. If I only knew back then how accurate this song is. Really makes me feel like I haven't done enough in this life and I need to start. Man this song hits hard.

I just turned 58. I'm an old guy now. Lost my Dad two years ago and he always said "son, take it all in because it passes so fast." Man was he right. I look in the mirror sometimes and wonder who that person is staring back at me. I feel like 2020 passed in the blink of an eye!

Rest in peace grandpa, you lived 100 incredible years, overcame so much, served in WW II, built your family, and will forever be my hero.

For someone at the age of 28 who's been through quite a lot of shit, I've been bawling my eyes like a kid each time revisiting this masterpiece. Still beautiful like the first time I came across it.

You find this song stunning from day one, but as you get older the lyrics become more beautiful and they make more sense to you. Just one of the most beautiful songs ever.

Going into my senior year of high school in the fall and I'm really not ready to grow up. Times flies when you let it. Cherish your childhood. You might just let it pass you by

My son 22 yrs old passed away 18 months ago. He had so much time left here on this earth to grow and be able to have a family . I miss you so much son but we will be celebrating our 99 yrs soon. I love you.

Metal head here - guys's guy, tattoos. This song crushes me to tears. Enjoy yourself. It's later than you think.

How someone so young could write a song like this that speaks to all who hear it. Amazing!

I am 63. Emergency spinal surgery, then Stage 4A Ductal Prostate Cancer, then Brain Tumor. I only have the time I have. Life is good...

I was 22 for a moment when this song came out. I'm 39 for a moment, realizing how true his message is. It all passes by so quick and you wonder what you did with it. Don't waste your life.

I work in a nursing home and one of my patients is 100. Everyday I see her she reminds me of this song and the fact that every single day is a gift and never take your time for granted.

My daughter's sings this song every year on Father's day. We saw 5 for fighting here in Billings Montana together when she was 13. We also got to meet him and took pictures❤

We played this song at my grandma's memorial, she was 3 weeks into her 99th year, she was "99 for a moment." No matter how many times I hear this song I cry. It's all the beauty and all all the loss of life together.

I’m 48 and the pandemic made me and my wife lost our jobs.. but we still have each other for a hundred years...

One of those songs you can't sing without crying. Beautiful lyrics.

This was one of my mothers favorite songs. She just passed away saturday at the age of 61. I wish i had 39 more years with her.

I was 11 when this song came out in 2003. I'm now 28, a decade passing since I graduated high school. I'm blown away by how slow and fast time seems to fly by at the same time.

when are we going to have this kind of music again?

I'm 15 for a moment Caught in between ten and 20 And I'm just dreaming Counting the ways to where you are I'm 22 for a moment And she feels better than ever And we're on fire Making our way back from Mars 15, there's still time for you Time to buy and time to lose 15, there's never a wish better than this When you've only got a hundred years to live I'm 33 for a moment I'm still the man, but you see I'm a "they" A kid on the way, babe A family on my mind I'm 45 for a moment The sea is high And I'm heading into a crisis Chasing the years of my life 15, there's still time for you Time to buy and time to lose yourself within a morning star 15, I'm alright with you 15, there's never a wish better than this When you've only got a hundred years to live Half time goes by, suddenly you're wise Another blink of an eye, 67 is gone The sun is getting high We're moving on I'm 99 for a moment And dying for just another moment And I'm just dreaming Counting the ways to where you are 15, there's still time for you 22, I feel her too 33, you're on your way Every day's a new day Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh 15, there's still time for you Time to buy and time to choose Hey, 15, there's never a wish better than this When you've only got a hundred years to live

listening at 15 years old, good to know there's still time for me... wonder how this will hit later in the future

I was 15 when this song came out, had my first love/worst heartbreak at 22, now I'm 33 married with a kid on the way. This song feels like the anthem of my life.

I remember being 12yrs old wanting to grow up. Now I'm 50yrs old both parents passed away, grandparents gone. Makes me wish I was 12yrs old again, surrounded by them without a care. Playing baseball in the back yard, drinking out of the hose and riding my bike to the lake. It sure goes by quickly!

Yesterday, it seemed like I was twenty. Today I am weeks from being sixty. Life is fleeting, so cherish every moment you have.

If there is any song that should be played at a high school or a college graduation this is the song.

Amazing how he was able to sing all that without bawling. Heard this today on the radio while receiving radiation for a cancer diagnosis, while my mother states away recieves radiation too (as we were diagnosed at the same time). It was hard to remain still, to say the least. I'm grateful for everything I still have, including the time I have now with her. Don't let the years slip past you. I 🤍 you mom, and I'll see you soon. Let's aim for 100.

I heard this on the way to the hospital when I was on my way to deliver my son a month before I turned 22. I gave birth to him on 07/20/04. Tomorrow he'll be celebrating his 18th birthday. Next month I'll be turning 40. This song brings back so many beautiful memories & moments for me. Thank you!🥰

The first time I heard this song, my 8th grade teacher showed the class this song. She encouraged us to work hard, live our lives, and love the people there for us because life passes by quick. That felt like yesterday. I can’t believe I’m 24 years old now! I can’t even remember her name. But I thank her for showing this song and all of her beautiful words of advice. Bless her wherever she is. Remember to live each year for you and with love!! Theses years truly are just a moment.

Dude wrote a timeless song

i'm 682340 years old and this hits right in the feels

I'm 64..... How I wish I could turn back time and enjoy the good times longer and make different choices... but life has been good.

I'm 23 and this song has been with me practically my whole life. Loved it as a kid but it has a whole new meaning as a young adult

I was 18 when this song came out, now I'm 37 married with child. Everytime I fall into a routine, I listen to this song and I wake up and remember my adventurous days almost 20 years ago. So guys enjoy your energy while you're still young or life will pass you by without you realizing you're almost 60. Lol.

Wow, still a masterpiece! It hits different at 42 than it did at 24

I was 15 when this song came out. I've been using it to track where my life is headed and how far i've come. I'm 32 now and doing my best to live life to the fullest and savor every moment. I'm getting married with a family on my mind. Hopefully I'll make it all the way to 99. If I do, I'm leaving another comment here.

I was 5 years old when this song came out. I didn’t hear it again after that until I was 15 and it hit hard for me then. Now I’m 25 and I came back to this song at my hardest times. I lost my best friend to OD when she was just 21. Time really flies so fast. Cherish all the memories. Big or small. Because I’m a blink of an eye it can all be taken away.

There are songs like this that make you know there are some angels that were sent here on earth to share their voice. It is so great.

I'm almost to 67, and I know it will be gone quickly. I can still "feel" 15, and 22, and 33, and 45, and half time at 50. It's a mural, isn't it? So thankful that my true eternity with Jesus awaits after this earthly life. God is good.

This song makes you realize if you follow a life of comfortable routine, years will fly by and you will question what have you done with your time? Live your life to the fullest! I am learning at 25 (almost 26) how fast time flew by when I didn’t pay attention and got comfortable doing the same thing over and over. My parents warned me the older you get, the faster time flies by and they were not kidding!

I was 57 male when diagnosed with breast cancer. Underwent mastectomy and just finished chemo. Everyday’s a new day, thankful for His provisions. Still fighting and enjoying life one day at a time despite approaching senior years.

This makes me reflect in so many ways. You’re never going to stop aging and death is inevitable. But did you do right, make the best life and love decisions? There’s always going to be regrets. I tear up at this song because there’s no going back. You have to try to be happy with the life and years you’ve been given.

I’m 75 so I’m 3/4s there. Still a lot to do and see. Don’t sweat the small stuff. If you’ve got your health , you’ve got everything. Take care of yourselves and adopt a healthy lifestyle and you’ll make it! Thank God for every day because every day is not promised.

I remember listening to this song in the car as a 10 year old with my dad in 2006 when my grandfather passed. Now it's 2021 and I'm 25 listening to this a year after my dad passed, Time really does fly. Really miss you Dad

When you lose someone you loved & looked up to, it hits so much harder In a very bitter sweet way ❤️

Love this song. We are 70 and just had our 46th anniversary. It sure did go by quickly.

Haha I remember being 19 looking out over the ocean wondering what life would bring.......here I am 56 now, two brothers, a sister and my mom are gone now, buried in Hawaii and resting in peace, yep it goes fast man, real fast......try to make good choices and love your family.🤙👍🏝

I was 34 weeks pregnant with my first and only child, my son. I had cardioversion and was hospitalized to be monitored. The nurses played this song throughout the night. They apologized, I said absolutely none needed. This next month my boy will be 18. Life flashes in the blink of an eye. Experiences, relationships, family, and my baby boy has grown into a man. Hold every moment close, and just smile whenever possible. Love like crazy.

ONE OF THE BEST SONGS EVER❤

Every time I come here I’m older I’m 45 for a moment reflecting on 15

At 61, I feel the years slipping away from me. This song brings a tear to my eye.

This song has made me cry since I first learned the words to it. I'm 41 now.. don't want to get any older.

Back in 2009 i was 37, now in 2023 i'll be 51 in August and this song still sounds as good as it did back then.

My wife was 15 when we started dating. She will be 68 tomorrow…. We are married 46 years When ever I hear this song, I tear up As we only have 100 years to live

I've loved this song since it came out. I'm 71 and it always has resonated with me.

Ah this takes me back to simpler years

Heard the words "... or we can find hospice for you" and thought of this song, as I've loved it for years. Savor every little bite of life you get.

I remember when this song released and I was in the "I'm 33 for a moment" lyric; now I'm between the 45 and 67 range.Damn! In fact, The sun is getting high We're moving on. Love this song.

This song is sad and beautiful at the same time.

I'm 19 now. After 10 years hope someone will hit the like so I can remember this moment I'm typing this down. Love this song. To my future self you've been through a lot and take time to breath in and just LIVE❤️ This is me admiring my older self🥺 Fingtingggg✊

He always has that element of melancholy in his music!!! It tears at your heart. At 71 the song resonates.

My grandparents are 91 and 94 years old, they’ve been married for over 70 years. My grandma passed away this week and and my grandfather has dementia. Listening to this song, thinking about him and their marriage, is making me sob. He loved her so much and he can’t even understand why she’s gone. And now I’m dreading the day I might lose my partner in old age. Time passes so quickly and you don’t even realise it. We need to start appreciating every single moment we can with our loved ones more, even the bad times.

This song makes me cry every time thinking how fast time flies how quickly life passes us by and current moments becomes distant memories. Things change people change and we try to hold onto time but is slips out of our hands like sand in the wind😢

Started listening to this song when I was fifteen. The day before my 16th birthday. Turning 23 tomorrow so, out of tradition, I had to watch the song. Next comment from me: 13 June 2031. Thanks for making this the most important tradition in my life. Reminds me to appreciate my time here on earth. I want to be 99 and dying for just another moment...

I'm 44 and my father just died on September 19, 2023 at 66. Stage 4 cancer. Please, don't give up. My father lived a rough life as a younger man. But he fixed it as he got older. YOU CAN TOO. The living world is NEVER too late. Whether you have 15 or 100 years to live, you can do it. You can turn it all around. You can have everything you want, everything you need. So please, while you're alive, NEVER believe it's too late. Start NOW. RIP Dad, I love you forever. Until Valhalla.

A masterpiece. A reminder of our lives and how we lived.❤

I am 46 years old, I feel/act much younger than my age and I don't plan on growing up anytime soon! What I've learned in my 46 years is that life is what you make it, it sucks for everyone at one time or another but you are in control of your own life. Don't count on anyone else to make you happy do it yourself......live the life you want not the one you think other people want you to live. If you fail at something, try it again....we all look back and say I should have done it different, that's part of life. I realized about 5 years ago that I don't get a "do over" or a "next time" it's just this time and even with the things I failed at accomplishing I will never regret any part of my life enough to wish it never happened! My greatest accomplishments are my 2 kids, no matter what I did or didn't do right in life they are what matters most!! So smile, tomorrow is a new day!

1990s-early (early!) 2000s was such a great time for music

Played this at my dad's funeral. I knew he was finally back with my mom... 😭😭😭

Found myself listening to this song at exactly 15 years old now I’m 23.I always refer back to this song when i go into sensory overload or just frustrated with life.With everything that has happened since then in the past 8 years-graduation,COVID 19 pandemic,grief etc I’m glad to have discovered this song truly! When I’m having a good or bad time this song helps me appreciate life even more. Time goes by so fast and just before you know it “Half time goes by, suddenly you're wise.Another blink of an eye, 67 is gone….And dying for just another moment”. Forever grateful for everyday in the land of the living while I’m healthy and young.

I'm 81. Every time I hear this song I think about writing a few more verses for it. 75 is such a monumental age. They say that if you live to be 75 you have at least 10 more years. I say yikes - is that all? I'm shooting for "a hundred".

This song reminds me that I might have wasted some of my 80 years when I was careless with my life. We think we will never grow old but my teenage years were just yesterday. I remember my first kiss and how wonderful it tasted. Spend your years wisely, love a lot, be kind and generous because your life will pass like a flash a light and leave only memories of not only the good, but the bad things you had rather forget.

I was 15 when this came out, 33 now and this song popped in my head. I have this thing when a song comes in my head, i have to listen to it. I take it as a sign. Every time the music takes me to a place in time of my life i wish i could relive. This song makes me cry and think of how tomorrow isn't promised to any of us. Some ppl don't nake it to 15 or 33. Im just grateful and thankful to have had achance to listen and really understand the wisdom of this song❤

At 70 years old this song brings a tear to my eye every time I hear it. Savor every moment…make a new memory every day….tell everyone you love how much you love them every chance you get. Life goes by and there are no do overs.
