5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome, truthful, expressive, made you think about life! :), August 10, 1999

By A Customer

It is a great song, that makes people realize that maybe their life isn't as bad as they think. Other people have been through worse stuff. You really think about how everyones lives are so different. And, yet, important. This is the best song!!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars I love everlast!They are the real thing.
Everlast is the real thing. Some might say their lyrics are too raw, but I think if that's what it takes to know what its like, then go for it.

I loved the 2 songs I heard on the radio, but when I bought the CD I was disappointed to find out it's a rap album. It sounds like a drunk man talking for 45 minutes. Read more
