The Band Perry - If I Die Young (Official Music Video)

Show me guys, is there anyone listening in 2024 ?

If this song isn’t played at my funeral I’m not going

My brother died during the 2024 eclipse. It was unexpected- he was 43. This song has gotten me through this week. Yesterday as I held him at his viewing and stroked his face one last time- I sang this to him to the best of my ability. I love you Isiah, my big brother always 💔

This was played at my forever 10yr old daughters funeral. ❤ never gets easier.

My mom avoided this song so much after my brother passed. Like she wouldn’t listen to any radio for months. One day when she was cleaning in the kitchen it was raining outside and she decided to turn the radio on. This is the first single she heard, after avoiding music all together to not listen to this song the one time she turns the radio on this is what she hears. From what she said the rained cleared for a few minutes and there was a rainbow outside. This used to be my favorite song before and now I love it but it makes me cry. He would’ve been 16 this month, I miss my best friend.

Naya sang this for Cory Who knew people were going to sing this song for her... We miss you Naya💔

If I die young, bury me in satin Lay me down on a bed of roses Sink me in the river at dawn Send me away with the words of a love song Oh-oh, oh-oh Lord, make me a rainbow, I'll shine down on my mother She'll know I'm safe with you when she stands under my colors Oh, and life ain't always what you think it ought to be, no Ain't even gray, but she buries her baby The sharp knife of a short life Well, I've had just enough time If I die young, bury me in satin Lay me down on a bed of roses Sink me in the river at dawn Send me away with the words of a love song The sharp knife of a short life Well, I've had just enough time And I'll be wearing white when I come into your kingdom I'm as green as the ring on my little cold finger I've never known the lovin' of a man But it sure felt nice when he was holding my hand There's a boy here in town, says he'll love me forever Who would have thought forever could be severed by The sharp knife of a short life Well, I've had just enough time So put on your best, boys, and I'll wear my pearls What I never did is done A penny for my thoughts, oh no, I'll sell 'em for a dollar They're worth so much more after I'm a goner And maybe then you'll hear the words I've been singin' Funny when you're dead, how people start listenin' If I die young, bury me in satin Lay me down on a bed of roses Sink me in the river at dawn Send me away with the words of a love song Oh-oh, (oh-oh) The ballad of a dove Go with peace and love Gather up your tears, keep 'em in your pocket Save 'em for a time when you're really gonna need 'em, oh The sharp knife of a short life Well, I've had just enough time So put on your best, boys, and I'll wear my pearls

My mom died of cancer when I was 7 I’m 16 now she was in her 20”s this was one of her favorite songs

I really like everything about this song and video. Best line: 'Funny when you're dead how people start listening".

My sister was murdered at age 23...thirty seven years ago. I still feel the sharp knife of her short life. RIP Linda, you will always be my big Sister, love Mike.

Im a nigga from the hood who mostly listen to rap but this song has a special place in my heart!! is there anyone listening in 2024 ?

I miss my mother so much! I buried her with my own hands. Looking forward to reunite with her one day after all this. Can't wait to hug her! I miss you so much Ami.

I can't believe this I'm crying. Naya's disappearance has done something to me, it caused me to grieve, something I've never done, well, I have done but I never fully grasped the full meaning of. I can't imagine her son, wondering when his mom will come home. We all are heartbroken and I hope they at least find her body, to bring closure to you, me, her fans, friends, family, and her little boy.😢 Update: They found Naya's body, and sadly she did not survive. I hope her son knows how much she wanted to be there. RIP NAYA YOU WILL ALWAYS BE APART OF US GLEEKS😚 NEWS: AS 2020 WAS CALMING DOWN WE HAVE MORE BAD NEWS, CHADWICK BOSEMAN DIED DUE TO CANCER AND WE WOULD MISS HIM. ANOTHER LIFE TAKEN TO SOON.😭 WE WILL MISS YOU KING. WAKANDA FOREVER!!!!!!!

RIP Naya Rivera, she sacrificed her life and her strength for her 4 year old son, Josey. If you tell me that isn't love, then I don't know what is. Edit: 2 years have passed, and its still really not the same without her. My prayers to Josey, her friends, and her family.

My terminally ill son just sent me this. My heart just broke a little more. Yes my dear boy, no words needed. I’ll make sure this is played.

Today marks 11 years since my son jayson sored to heaven..i just found myself here..happy heavenly birthday, jayson..he would be 11years today❤

I wrote this song on a paper and gave it to my mom saying when I die to open it. I have had cancer for 3 years I’m 12 years old I want to experience life but I may not be able to

This was my suicide song way back 2017. I always planned out how I will do my suicide. How I will write my suicide notes, and how will I slowly give my things to my loved ones. Since 2017, suicide thoughts never leave me. I have been battling with multiple mental illnesses. But hey, I came back here because I'm slowly but surely winning my silent battles. Months of medications and therapies are helping me to love life again. To you who's still struggling, be strong my fella. Life is tough but you're so much stronger. I know you can win your battles, too. <3

My daughter passed away 10 years ago. This is the first time I've listened to it since. Can't stop crying

My sister died a year ago we grew up listening to this song. If I would’ve had the power to play a song at her funeral, it would’ve been this one. Rip my love
