Jack Johnson - We're Going To Be Friends Lyrics

I cried 😭

Someone play this is 2x mode

I love it. Thanks for that bit of sunshine

I mainly listen to Slipknot Immolation and $uicideboy$ but this just brings be back

“ we safely walk to school without a sound “
Sadly we can’t do that anymore since kids think it’s cool to harm others with guns

Not in my world. My kids walked or biked to school and back every day.

Reminds me of 2nd grade.
No fat shaming
No racism
No bullying,
Just friends.

😭😭😭

My child hood

Thank you you made my day with this song thank you 😍

loved falling asleep to this album when I was 6

I wanna be a kid again

Coolio video

When I was in kindergarten they played this the first day when we entered the class, I’m now just remembering the memories💜 I’m in eighth grade this year graduating

napoleon dynamite

opening credits boi

when people know this song because of Wonder, but you knew this song WAY long before Wonder even existed

any other nineteen year olds in this innocent section of youtube or jus me ?

This is my school song :(
also i'm graduating this year

I just watch Wonder!!!

im CRYING this song was my favorite ofmgire

Crying in the bathroom at 12:35 am wishing I was 6 yrs old again bye

this song makes you sad no matter what.

My infant school used to play this song on Friday assemblies. I never thought back then that this song would have such an affect on me later on in my life, synesthesia is a terribe thing. Nostalgia is a terrible thing. I miss the days of not having a care for a thing and living in the present moment the way it is when you're a kid. Especially during a time where technology hasn't taken over of our lives - including childhood. I feel like the newer generations will never appreciate their childhood with the influence of social media and getting a goddam phone at the age of 8.
 It makes me so sad, this song is so pure, the imagery that the song is depiciting is an experience that we will never feel again. The tragic reality that during this song being played in my childhood time was frozen, and now - it's just, not frozen. It's moving and the past will never be experienced again. All the physical sensations felt during those days, all the happiness and purity, all the idiosyncrasies of being a child, all the blissful ignorance, never to be experienced again.
I have 2 younger non-identical twin brothers age 4 and a half, they are currently having this experience and it makes me so happy for them. But also sad. I want them to remember this happy feeling forever. But alas, time passes. They are no longer babies with curly hair and chubby faces. They have passed the milestone of scoring their first goals at football and winning their first medals, they have passed their first days at infant school, they have passed the days that their relationships bloomed, the days of them drawing their first pictures and learning their first words. They are now a little older, albeit a few weeks or months, they are still... Older. I hope they never recognise the concept of time passing and live in the moment, not having their childhood ruined and their innocence ruined by social media and the dangerous world out there.
I love my brothers so much
I like to think of this song when they are at school playing in their assemblies
I love my childhood
But i hate the feeling it leaves with each passing day

ดีว่ะชอบๆ

The sound of childhood.

You’re good

half way there

jack just has this way if making songs his own

i think i remember hearing this in kindergarten. im abt to go to high school next year. damn those were some good times

my dad played this song on my first day of school and i cried bro not gonna lie

Damn I remember hearing this in 3rd grade, on pbs. I I’m graduating next year from HS

Is this from wonder? 😆☺️

nice slideshow

Great cover by jack johnson

So many memories since 2nd grade my teacher sung this this to us I'm in 7th grade now I miss 2nd grade 😢😢

Kennedy Saitoti curious George was the og

Omg i still can't believe im in 3rd grade and i am still going to sing this song

I am going to sing this songvin front of all of my school

My 3rd grade teacher would play this in the morning every single day, and by the end of the song we all had to be circled around the class carpet.

I graduated elementry school and this song reminded me all of my 7 years of elementry school

thanks guys.
for these vews

I needed a happy song today - thank you :)

Anyone else get sent here by Spinach?

thx spinach

Who else got sent here by Spinach?

Your Master whos that

love！！

#memory's

I think this guitar and jack whites voice would fit better together

It's funny hearing how this song effects us and then in videos on other comment threads we're tearing each other to pieces and being evil

lack of self awareness and self determination

Napoleon Dynamite anyone?

SFC mr Raccoon was this in Napoleon dynamite? :-\ hmp

at the start yeah

This is a cover though. The white stripes' version (creators of this song) was in the film.

No, this song was in the film.

@Batman the original was in the film, not this version

❤ love this song!~

"We don't notice any time pass, we don't notice anything"

I started bawling because of this

am I the only one who almost cried

I'm more about to cry when I listen the original one

So many memories

Nope 😭

I cried too

I cried we played this song at my baby brother's funeral

Anyone else gonna use this song for gore?

You mean ruining an amazing song with your edgy bullshit?

What do you mean by gore?

I want to see what happens if white stripes and jack Johnson sing this together...

Some studio make it happen!

they did

it makes me so depressed but yet so happy

Jack white and jack johnson versions are incomparable. This version is for extremely young children, basically dumbed down from original which was made to nostalgic and melancholy.

they are the same song just played and sung by different artists

jack jonsons version

that awkward moment when i'm 15 and listening to a song for 5 year olds

it's alright I'm 20 aha

who said this was for 5 year olds?

It’s memories man, just remember

This song brings back memories from when I was little. I remember hearing this song when I was in Wal-Mart and I almost broke down crying. Love this song so much.

Do I like Jack Johnson's or Jack Whites version more?

+Some Random Youtuber Jack Johnson, his voice is so much more smooth.

can't argue with that

+DeadlyMountainPro Nah, Jack Johnson's cover doesn't encompass the sadness that Jack White had with the nostalgia, kind of misses the point of the song. And Jack Johnson didn't have as much rhythm.

+Some Random Youtuber White stripes

Don't ask me, how should I know what you think?

His voice isn't right for the song I feel I much prefer the White stripes one

kindergarten=good times.
College years=the most stressful years of your life.

@Allister Crow lol. Keep practising your piano boetie. You might amount to something one day.

@Diogenes' Lantern That's some salt if I've ever heard it, you're very immature ya know? Even worse if you're an adult.

Also, what the hell does me playing piano have to do with this conversation? You're just trying to exploit anything you possibly can about me because you know you're in the wrong.

Johnny could

Allister Crow why so toxic?

This song is so touching

The only guy who should ever do this song is named Jack. Just not Jack Johnson.

They played this song in a slideshow for graduation and I'm soooo sad!!

Reminds me of preschool <3 love you Montessori <33

I legit thought the beginning was amnesia

OH MY GOD IN THE CD MY MOM BOUGHT FOR KINDERGARTEN MEMORIES CD THING IN KINDERGARTEN WHEN I WAS 5 FOR MEMORIES OF THE YEAR THIS SONG WAS PLAYED IN THE BACKGROUND SO IM CRYING AT THE MOMENT OML NOW ITS ME EXACTLY 10 YEARS LATER IN LOVE WITH WHITE STRIPES AND I REALIZE THEY SANG THIS SONG RIGHT NOW IM CRYING IVE BEEN OBSESSED WITH THIS BAND FOREVER AND NOW THE PUZZLE PIECES COME TOGETHER THROW BACK OF LIFE I AND NOT FUNCTIONING RIGHT.

Bertha Ocegueda it's always a beautiful and special thing when pieces come together

caps lock

The same thing happened to me. I had the cd and everything.

napoleon dynamite

Squadrabbrothers The original White Stripes version was in Napoleon Dynamite but this cover is good.

as much as i love jack johnson. i think i like the white stripes better i just like his voice better.

I disagree only because this song is so much more Jack's style. I t was a curiosity for the White Stripes, it sounds just like a JJ song. Love both versions though

Digitalstrange2 Wait both renditions of this song were made by a Jack, which Jack are we talking about here?

@Scrumptious Beanz trickery involved!

@Diogenes' Lantern
IT'S A WITCH

@Scrumptious Beanz this song is more jack johnson style. But jack white actually has the softer voice, and punk rock style which made the song have more impact.

Worst Video ever.

this doesn't sound right, it just doesn't have the feeling. his voice is great, his guitar playing is great. it just isn't the same. thumbs down, sorry. some songs are too real, and shouldn't be covered.

I didn't notice the time pass either now I do ..............................*hops in time machine* hello pre-k me don't push down timmy tomorrow either

I HATE HOW IT MAKES ME CRY

I LOVE THIS SONG

Matthew Salerno r/Ihadastroke

this song is awesome im not gonna lie

IT'S THE CURIOUS GEORGE xD so much memories!!!

#yoloswag Jack Johnson.

better
swag

Your 0 year old neice? Mmmkay...

This is not jack Johnson song, this is jacks white song.

love it

this is gorgeous ...

Bernardo this one is 4 the linking that keeps on either you know it by brain or heart...4 ever to eternety, loved son

This is Jack White's music though.

Hey everyone, I just made a parody music video of Still Dre with my 0 year old niece Stella! Check it our and give the little gangsta some love!

your awesome

It does add to the song some. Have you seen the alternate version the Stripes did on Conan?

The white stripes are the original artists of the song

I like the white stripes more too, but I think the piano adds quite a bit.

i like the stripes version better. probably because you can feel the emotion when they sing it and this is more or less just an emotionless cover

The only difference is that at that time, you were living each moment like it was your last. And today, you aren't living in the present, you have regrets and worry about your future. You don't take the time to enjoy life like you were doing as a kid :)
