I have to say that it was just recently that I became so obsessed with Daughtry. I have seen them in concert with Nickelback and it wasn't until after the show on 8/9/08 in Indy, when I met the guys, that I realized how great they are. Now after being on this website everyday, sometimes all day, I have seen why they are so amazing! This video is one of the many ways that you guys show who you are and what you stand for. This is why we all love you! What a great role model for everyone in America! Thank you and keep it up!
Right after coming home from working at an orphanage in Malawi, Africa I saw the video. Check out the website for the non profit that helps to fund the orphanage. Its a great (but small) organization trying to do some really big things!
I love how you guys use your videos to make your music mean even more! This gives people another perspective on the song and a better understanding of how fortunate some of us are. I think its great that you are getting involved with charities and giving them the exposure through your video. Keep up the good work!
That's a major part of what I love about you. You are a blessing to everyone and every cause you touch. You are a force for goodness. A role model so desparately needed for our youth. May God bless you more and more. All of you

You summed that up very well! That is what DAUGHTRY brings to all of us and why we just love them so much! And also one of the many reasons I pray they stay the same people they are inside always!

Live, laugh, love with all your heart! And.. Be true to yourself!
It's not just about the quality of the video but about it's heart. You can almost feel the heart of God beating through it and that is real quality. You never forget such videos- they leave a mark on your heart.
Great messages come from this video. I could watch it again and again, just like the others. Where was JP!?

The moment I listened to this song for the first time after the release of the album, I was digging it so much and I fell in love with the heartfelt melody and the lyrics. I was hoping that they would make a music video of it and release it as a single (well almost all of the tracks in their album can all be released and become sure hits!) and it now it came true.
The video is very inspiring, eye-opening to the people today. "What about now.. what about today..." It gives encouragement to all people to act and save the world, reach out to the needy and become better persons and learn to love each other as well as the world we are living in.
Hands down, Daughtry is the best band of the new millennium.
Thanks for visiting Manila! Watching your concert was my best night ever.
I'll be anticipating for the next album and keep up the good work Chris and the band. More power to you all.
Isn't a wonderful feeling to know that you are making a difference. Here is something that you might not realize, or you might take for granted though......Just watching you inspires people. No matter how bad things get, you must know that what you do for people is something special. When things get tough, it is nice to step out of reality and just watch and listen to your music. Thank you all!

That video was amazing! That is one of my favorite Daughtry songs and the video makes it even better! That is a very moving song and video! Thanks Guys! Keep up the great work!!!
I really liked the video cuz it shows the reality that we are all living....we have to be more conscious of the suffering that others are going through...
I like it and it reminds me of a FOB (FallOutBoy) video. It's a good way to get a message and important information to a lot of people. Good Job!

You have just put into song, much of what my wife and I are hoping to accomplish with our new magazine, launching this Spring. http://www.fafmagazine.com/ . We would love to partner with people like yourself, who have learned what it mean to become the change. And we know that many of us, despite our best efforts, can not help because of our own financial situation. It is time that we as America's look past ourselves and see the bigger picture. Working to better the world, while eliminating our own problems--thus being able to do even more.

THAT'S IT!
I laugh at myself because I did not even know what a VMA was at first! I do not watch much TV or the news...but you have caught my interest!
THANK YOU FOR STEPPING UP AND BEING A FORCE FOR CHANGE IN THIS WORLD!
YOU CAN REACH MORE PEOPLE RELEASING ONE VIDEO THAT I CAN DOING MONTHS AND MONTHS OF WORK!
You all are Celebrities and have the power to create change on a UNIVERSAL LEVEL! I WISH MORE WOULD STEP UP AND USE THEIR FAME IN A MORE OF A SELFLESS WAY, AS YOU HAVE.
i'm surprised in all the previous comments this wasn't mentioned....
this totally reminded me of van halen's '' right now'' video, anybody else? but thats good because i loved that one too. great way to get a message to a large audience. rock on daughtry-- see ya in green bay!
I totally agree with you in regard to wanting to cry when I listen to this song.
Ever since I heard the song the first time, it just reminds me of all the "loved and lost" events in my life.
It just goes to show, anyone, what a powerful song this is, and the video produces even more power and awareness.
While watching the video, I keep wondering what I can do on a local basis, and then what can I do, for any of the organizations shown in the video.
Every little bit helps, in regard to a donation.....................................

Thank you for giving back!!

Wow!! Its great to know that you have so much compassion for the world and wanting to help. This reminds me of when "Heal the World" debuted. If enough musicians can come together and make a difference then what is our excuse? The messages were great and make people realize what they have and that they should never take it for granted. What a blessing you've made in helping make the video shows how much you care.
Much Love

Love the video guys!

Not to mention all they other things that they need like safety, medications, education, and LOVE!!!
