This song still holds a special place in my life 11 years later ❤️
Every time I’m down, I always come back to this 😭
I am a lesbian and I'm Christian. To the 24 people who disliked this, I am praying for you. Who said God's love is conditional? I do remember hearing "Love your neighbor as yourself" and if you hate your neighbor (aka the LGBT community) you are just hating yourself. Last time I checked, Jesus had two dads and He turned out just fine.
It gets better!
Just to let anyone know whoever watches this video. It does get better! I was bulled since I was 3. It gets better, things will be brighter and no matter what there will always be people around. I was bullied all of Elementary, Middle School, and HS. I even had gatorade bottles halfway filled thrown at me in class. Many times we think we're not strong, we're weak. But people are stretching their arms out for love and support. Know you're never alone! You are beautiful no matter what anyone says.
It's been 11 years since I've heard this song for the first time. I had so many suicide thoughts... I'm so glad I didn't give in... I wouldn't have love, traveled, and met amazing people... So many beautiful moments I had... What a life... A simple, but blessed life. Thank you guy... You have been saving people!!!
It really did get better ! Congratulations to the States ! Marriage equality is here ! Love conquers all !
@Spamac - Sad news from the future, the religious extremists and anti-LGBT are trying their best to force a constitutional amendment to overturn the Supreme Court ruling and explicitly define marriage as only between one man and one woman.
(As well as trying to define transgender individuals out of existence, that only "biological gender" matters.)
They will never win though cause Love conquers all and too many people are now for gay marriage and transgender rights!
Have faith and let’s stand together and never give up!
Been listening to this song ever since it came out... Such an inspirational song!!! Great Job everyone! :)
it still makes me cry every time I watch it. God bless you all
This is amazing for people who are bullied or depressed, not just for LGBT teens
Soooooooooo beautiful
This brought tears to my eyes
First time I have seen the video but the message is clear
What a beautiful reassurance... just beautiful!
I honestly believe that one day, we won't need songs like these. One day, these acts of kindness and beauty that bring tears to our eyes will no longer be necessary. One day, everyone will believe this message. One day, everyone will know that no matter what you are, you can be strong and proud of who you are. I dream of the day when I no longer am so affected by these beautiful social movements because it's just the way things are.
I just showed this video to my 23 month old baby. He loved it. Thank you for making a better world for him and his two moms!
as a 'bullying survivor,' this video gets to me every time
It has been years ago since I was bullied, since I considered suicide.
But this song still gets me crying every time.
This made me cry too. It breaks my heart to think kids are dying because they don't have the support to live their life as God made them. They need to hear that it does get better. What a great song with awesome voices!! Great Video.
as a 57 year old gay man, this song brought tears to my eyes, remembering those days, these days. thanks u have done the world some real good with this.
after hearing this, I do feel better for a long time I really do feel lighter. iv been having the worst couple of months and this reminded me that it will get better and that there is light around the corner I just have to keep getting up X3 thank you so much for posting this
This song/performance is wonderful. I sent the link to my 4 children. I posted it on FB. I purchased ths song on Itunes and I joined the project. To all who gave this video to the world and to every person who has shared a video, THANK YOU!
Oh, I hope everyone who's hurting can see this - thank you, thank you, thank you, for sharing your gifts with us and your powerful message. It does it better!!!!!
All these years later....the message is as important now as it was then. I love Jay Kuo for this.
I'm a 12 year old, straight girl. But I'm bullied. I love this song! It gives me hope! God bless you all! You are ALL PERFECT! GOD LOVES YOU! XOXO
Guys? It gets better. There will ALWAYS be someone who cares about you, whether you know them or not. I love all of you guys.
having worked as a Company Manager for many years and 'retired' to run a B&B in Ashland Oregon, this video reminds me of the giving nature of so many of my friends and family in that previous life I had. Thank you to everyone who participated to make this video...
im not even gay but every time i see all of these people who have come together for a cause like this i cry tears of joy and happiness....so beautiful
Absolutely beautiful! Three years later and it still resonates.
I'm a 20 year old lesbian. I grew up in a small town in Kentucky and I will admit that when I was younger things were really tough. And I did try to commit suicide. I went through a very dark place, but once I was able to see the people around me that loved and supported me everything started to look brighter. I'm proof that it does get better. So keep strong.
Thank you to the Broadway community for reaching out to everyone who is in pain. It does get better. Thanks for this post.
I think everyone in this production - the 26 singers and the songwriters and musicians are all living proof that not only does it get better - it can get amazingly better! Seeing Jacob Clemente (Billy Elliot) singing his butt off with so much compassion is incredible! Blair & Jay et al, , ,a million thumbs up!
So many young voices on a note of hope! We will survive.
one day you will stand before the throne of the most High God, and you will bow!!!
This is truly amazing. To all of those people who feel like there isn't any hope, there is. It does get better. I'm straight, but I've watched friends get bullied and stuck up for them and been a shoulder for them to cry on when they have needed it. There is always someone there for you. Please don't give up. The world IS a better place because you are here.
Every time my faith in humanity needs a little restoring, I watch this. Works every time. :)
This is totally awesome! Thank you from a Mom of a gay son who had my unconditional love from the day he was conceived, the day he was born, the day he "came out" and always. We are the lucky ones!
How could you possibly dislike this?
This goes beyond the homosexual community. It's a symbol of support and humanity to all kids suffering from bullying, no matter what the cause. Not to mention these people's voices are amazing.
I am so grateful for the lack of trolls and hate on this video. My faith in the society and the internet has risen.
Thank-you for an amazing song.
You all are *awesome*!!! My teen daughter has come out, and although I love her dearly, I am concerned about the attitudes so prevalent in society today. I know she is strong, but for her to know that there are others like her out there, going through the same stuff, and that others have walked this road before her and made it-- it makes a world of difference!!!
Powerful - can't stop watching or listening to the song. Thanks Dan Savage for being the catalyst...
This is deeply moving. I hope everyone who is depressed and suffering from discrimination gets to watch this.
I needed to hear this right now. I am from a small area, and I am openly gay and proud. Even still, sometimes I feel very alone. And I need to constantly strive to make things better. Thank you Trevor Project for reminding me that I'm not alone, and that I will find peace!
Watching this just makes me feel better. Thank you.
Thanks to all of the artists who are committed to caring and to those who reach out to find it gets better.
Hi! I'm from Hungary in Europe.
There were in my school bullies. But we found each other and beceame friends. Now the school protects us, after telling our stories to the headteacher.
And this song makes me sure there is a light in the life.
IT GETS BETTER!
Okay, it brought tears to my eyes. Thank you! So this movement cannot stop. As gay and lesbian adults we need to support our little brothers and sisters. We have a mission. Be authentic and in our beauty and power. They need to see us all!
Beautiful. All teens struggle with finding their future and life does get better!
i have listened to like over 50 times in the last two days.... i am in love...
I don't think I've ever cried so much while listening to a song. Thank you for this. :)
You guys make me cry .I felt like my angel were next to me . Blessed u all. Continue your good work. I wish u all success. In the fight. Live ,have hope, never give up.
I couldn't stop crying when I was watching and listening to this. I hope this video helps out anybody who feels they are bullied and alienated cause of who they are. Life does get better
5 years later this still gives me goosebumps. Thank you.
This song it amazing it has given so many people hope...my high school is doing it and it touches me everytime we sing it
Thank you for this beautiful "fight song!!" And believe me, I am SO glad I stuck around!! When I was a kid, there was a month when every night I looked at the bottle of pills in my nightstand drawer, and thought "not tonight." After that month, something happened. I never did understand it. But without actually thinking and deciding, I woke up one day, knowing I was going to LIVE, and IT GOT BETTER!!! Thanks again to all of you and Dan Savage and everyone else who's doing so much to help!!
I personally am so glad you're still with us. I've been in the exact same place as you were back then. I had those thoughts for over a decade. Things have gotten so much better! Keep waking up everyday and fight. Hugs!
best song in the history of songs. has lifted my spirit beyond belief
I love how people come together in so many different ways to show support, well done to the Broadway theatre teams. Stephen
Best song I've ever heard. So much better than so called "talented" people you hear on the radio.
People forget that we're all unique and we all have different things to offer the world. When I was bullied (for many reasons) as a kid, I thought there was something wrong with me. Now I know there was something wrong with THEM. Kudos for putting together a song to give to the rest of the world to give all of us hope, to help us all believe that we're one step closer to the kind of acceptance that stops all the hate. I can only hope I see that change in my own lifetime. THANK YOU, Broadway.
I keep coming back to this song. Not because I was bullied (I was) or happened to be an LB in high school (I was) but because this song reminds me that through the depression I've been dealing with that there is hope and brighter days. I seem to respond better to music, and I think that this song has a wider audience than how it is presented.
im not hay but have been teased my whole life. this song helped me start to heal from all the pain.
This is a facebook status I left after attending my freshman orientation at college:
"Orientation has changed my perspective on life so much. So much, that never throughout these past 18 years would I have been able to believe it to be true. Countless years of pretending to be happy, countless nights of crying in bed- wishing everything were different. Those days are finally over. Life really does get better." I am a living proof that it gets better.
This beautiful song made me cry. Thank you for this touching testament to unity.
Such a beautiful and joyful message! With so much hate and violence in the world, it's almost-spiritual-to see such unapologetic and inspiring love for humankind. It doesn't matter who you are, where you come from, where you've gone or where you're going...this message holds true to people of all faiths, backgrounds and identities. Thank you for this, Broadway!
beautiful song, beautiful words, beautiful people with beautiful hearts, come together for one beautifull purpose, to work beautiful world for beautiful tomorrows....
simply beautiful
I just LOVE theater people.....heart, soul and caring!
Gorgeous voices! Goosebumps from head to toe. Just beautiful.
still amazing song ❤️
Thank you. I didnt know how I was going to make it though this tough time in my life. (Spouse terminal). But day by day, I keep humming this song and listening to it each night before trying to sleep. And it has helped me deal and get into a better place. thank you all.
I also downloaded it already... and haven't stopped listening it all day long!
This video says it all. It should be played in schools across the country. There are not room for bullies.
I heard this song almost a week ago at my theatre group . We all shared our depression stories & our directors played this song & brung us all to tears. This song is so beautiful & what keeps my hope alive .
I love theater people! Theater people are just, in general, very open minded and supportive people. And did anybody else get reminded a bit of "We are the world?"
as president of the SpectrUM at the University of Miami i can guarantee this will be going viral at UM!!! we need to stand together and support each other. it does get better! i promise!
It does get better. I'm still in high school and I can say that.
I was going to take my life in 9th grade. Now I'm entering Senior year and I can't be more thankful that I didn't take my life. Now I have friends, a love, and I'm graduating.
Love is love! When you love someone, how dare anyone make you afraid to show it.
I am so happy that there are people out there who care. I wonder if it really does get better or not.
Unbelieveable! I represent children who are neglected and or abused and have done so for 25 years or more and will until i retire because as a gay man I relate to the feelings of being all alone in the world. You guys are singing fools. Loved it !!!!!
This song and the singers and their purpose is so wonderful. I can't breathe!
i literally cried listening to this song.
Thank You..
I am so blessed to have come across this video. I, as many others, have survived the bullying and the hatred that comes from growing up gay. May all you watch this video feel loved and know they is a way through the pain. IT GETS BETTER..Just fight for your life. I want you to live!
Just a amazing video. I'm 28 years old and from Brazil. If when I was a teenager this type o project already exist it would have been easier to hold on. Congratulations!!!
You don't know how much this video helped me in the process of coming out. It gave me hope, and courage. I cry every time I watch this. I plan to send this video to anyone who I feel needs it.
I love this song and this rendition!! As a therapist who works with all kinds of young kiddos with differences, I wish I could bottle the beauty of this message and give it to each of them.
Profound thanks to each of these talented individuals in sharing....
Lisa
the way u guys sang that song... it really touched my heart.....yeah life does get better...no doubt life sucks sumtimes... but not allways remains the same..
Absolutely Gorgeous, Wish this was going on when I was younger but it makes my heart sore to the heavens to see so many people reaching out to the young'ens of future generations. Thank you for a great video
This is just the Greatest! Thank you all for sharing your talents for this great cause.
Fabulous. Wonderful young voices and a perfect and timely message. Thank you.
One of the most inspirational videos on RUclips! Thanks to all who contributed to this - and for sending the proceeds from the iTunes download to The Trevor Project. It's people like these that are making a difference.
Greetings from a progressive clergyguy from Budapest, Hungary, Central-Europe!:) It is wonderful, what you did! Thank you! _i am so proud all of you!
Lump in my throat. Beautiful artists singing for a terribly important cause. Thanks
Wow, how could someone not like this song?
Bless you all. Thank you for this post. Don't ever take it away.
Fantastic song & singers! I got teary eyed.
Fantastic... listening to this gave me the image of the empty places created by those who never heard the vision of "It Gets Better"... I so hope those empty places are no more!
I plan on sharing this in my English class for our Power of Words unit. This left me speechless and filled me with hope.
Really, really beautiful and inspiring. Thank you to everyone involved, and big hugs and love to everyone touched by this song.
I am in love with the blonde woman with the glasses(totally cute) at the 2:54-2:56!!!
She looks so happy and possitive,she really makes you feel that things will get better!!
Thank you all for sharing this message to everyone!!!! :)
Whenever I feel like the bullies are going to win, I listen to this and feel better. Thank you for showing me that people care
Watching this makes me want to cry.
As I plan to be on Broadway someday, it really touches me when I realize that someday, I can make a difference in someone's life. Great video/song.
Beautiful song sung by beautiful people! Thank you for sharing your talent for this cause.
Over a year later, and this is still the best EVER musical response to the whole bullying phenom.... Thanks!
This was beautiful. To have so many Broadway stars, so many that I look up to, sing this amazing song... wow. I have no words. All I can say is THANK YOU.
One last thing. Orfeh. And Orfeh's descant... my favorite part. LOVE her voice like no other!
