    Ellie X

  44. Oh I love this song! It is all so true, and sparked a long discussion once between my boyfriend and I on a car journey from London to Southend. We talked about getting on with siblings no matter how much they annoy you, and the importance of family.

    Chin up and keep smiling :)

  84. I love this post as the song means so much to me! I listened to it all the time after my grandad died and it helped me move on and accept everything. Whenever I'm going through a tough time in my life I listen to it. I hope you feel better soon :)

  85. I can definitely sympathize with you on that! It's hard to be positive when it feels like the odds are against you. Keep your head up, everything will work itself out!

  89. Love that picture of you! I agree with Emzoo that your eyes look amazing!
    That is one of my favourite songs. It's so thought provoking. I was thinking of posting it on my blog the other day because I came across it again after a long time.

  90. Natalie

    Never heard this before and it made me cry. Very inspiring and helpful. It's such a good video and the words mean a lot, and I think sometimes you forget most of it but when you watch it again, you seem to take it all in more. It's the first time I've ever seen this, but I now know what to do when I don't feel great. Hope you're feeling better, Zoe! Much Love xxxx

  96. Chels

    thanks for inspiring a blog that's all my own :)

  97. Hi Zoe! I love your blog and I have a question! I'm turning 21 soon and I feel like I should start taking better care of my skin. I currently don't have an overnight regime and I am curious what yours is? Do you use an eye cream? What would you recommend a good overnight regime for your face be?
    Thanks!
    Diana :)

    Always loved this song! Hope things are looking up for you! xx

  117. I love this song. It is so feel good. It came out soon after I joined secondary school so takes me back. But rediscovered it last year on a roadtrip round Mexico. So really does bring me some (Caribbean) sunshine! You look gorgeous as ever Zoe. x

  119. Love that top picture of you! Sent you an e-mail about sponsoring, but haven't heard back? Just wanting to make sure you got it :) I even bribed you with POP TARTS in it… just sayin'

  120. LOVE the first photo of you in this post :) I sent you an e-mail awhile back about sponsoring, and was wondering if you got it?! I am sure you get bogged down with e-mails… but I did bribe you with pop tarts… just sayin'

  123. BRILLIANT song! :) I hope you no longer have those down in the dumps days! WE MISS YOU BLOGGING AND YOUTUBING! >___< You're such an inspiration to me, I've started my own blog:

  125. Hello Zoella,

    I just wanted to tell you that you are adorable, funny and an amazing blogger/youtuber (even though you don't post too many posts or videos). Each week if you haven't really uploaded a video I go back and watch all the previous ones that I enjoyed thoroughly. Your blog is like the kind of blog that I type into the address bar to check and see if you've posted and maybe I haven't received it on my e-mail. You're a true inspiration to me, I started a blog because I saw how much you've enjoyed blogging and it got me into blogging. I just recently started a blog, I'm not the kind of person who would send you just a link because I think it's rude. Your blog helps me understand what products I should and should not buy, and your videos just make me laugh my ass out. I have seen all of your youtube videos, yes all 55 multiple times (no I'm not a stalker) I just love you and Louise so much. Thank you for all the entertainment you've provided me with, even though it was unknowingly.

  141. Sophie

    Gosh, didn't think a youtube video would make me cry. I hate the thought of getting old, being lonely, and having no siblings to lean on. As soon as it said about getting to know your parents because you don't know how long they'll be around, I was blubbering like a little kid. xx

  142. Zoee_x

    Love this!!! x

  143. Oooh I was welling up then, such an ispiring video! :) Thanks for sharing xx

    XOXO <3

  151. I love this, I have the lyrics pinned on my bedroom wall just to keep me on the right track!! xx

  154. My dad showed me and my sisters this song when we were younger when time's were getting tough. It taught me a lot especially to let moments happen and not to worry. It's a song that will stick with me forever and always bring me back to a calm place rather then panicking. At least I know that it's okay to change my mind about the path I want to take and it's changed several times already :)

  157. You're an inspiration..truly <3
