Lyrics
Listen as your day unfolds
Challenge what the future holds
Try and keep your head up to the sky
Lovers, they may 'cause you tears
Go ahead release your fears
Stand up and be counted
Don't be ashamed to cry
You gotta be
You gotta be bad, you gotta be bold
You gotta be wiser, you gotta be hard
You gotta be tough, you gotta be stronger
You gotta be cool, you gotta be calm
You gotta stay together
All I know, all I know, love will save the day
Herald what your mother said
Readin' the books your father read
Try to solve the puzzles in your own sweet time
Some may have more cash than you
Others take a different view
My oh my heh, hey...
You gotta be
You gotta be bad, you gotta be bold
You gotta be wiser, you gotta be hard
You gotta be tough, you gotta be stronger
Don't ask no questions, it goes on without you
Leaving you behind if you can't stand the pace
The world keeps on spinning
You can't stop it, if you try to
This time it's danger staring you in the face
Oh oh oh
Remember
Listen as your day unfolds
Challenge what the future holds
Try and keep your head up to the sky
Lovers, they may cause you tears
Go ahead release your fears
My oh my heh, hey, hey
You gotta be
You gotta be bad, you gotta be bold
You gotta be wiser, you gotta be hard
You gotta be tough, you gotta be stronger
This song feels like a genuine hug from someone who wants you to be okay

The 90's wasn't a decade. It was an emotion.
👏🔥
Yes.
Couldn't have phrased it any better. The 90's just FELT real.
Underrated comment gentleman. ")
I agree with you. Where is the music now? I don't know. How can you not be empowered every day when you are listening to this while going to work ?
We were so happy in the 90's but we weren't aware of it
People tend to get only aware of something being good if they don't have it anymore.
Never truer words spoken.
So true.
We were sad about different things, but time makes you remember the good times more.
Power of nostalgia
When I’m feeling depressed this track uplifts me 🔥🔥
❤❤❤❤❤
Me too. I struggle with depression for years and my negative thoughts about things but I gotta listen to positive things like this to keep my sanity and focus.
Me too
Same here❤
real
Mom passed away when I was 9. We used to sing this in the car. I’m 35 now. I can still here her singing.
... and she'll always be there, singing this song with you.
Oh my 💜 I don't know you and I love you. Your Mom will always be with you and she's smiling down at her baby. 💜
May she rest in peace. Take care of yourself.
Keep smiling baby. Mom is right there by your side 🥰🥰
She most have been a wonderful lady with good taste in music. God bless you.
This song brings alot of nostalgia. My Mum used to play this song to me when I was 7 back in the 90s. Am in my 30s now. Rest in Peace Mum.
Rest in peace to your mum, and mine as well! ❤️
Rest In Peace, my mom did the same I always think of her when I hear this
I can so relate..I.listened to this song under 10..in the 90's. I'm in my 30's too..Nolstagic feelings 🤔😢
Awwww, all the best
Same bruh.
People don't understand how much of a powerful impact music like this has on kids!! I come from a crazy family in Africa and suffered from depression from a very young age...i can remember when I was around 8 how nice this song would make me feel...cause it was positive and such good advice, something I lacked getting as a child. I disowned my whole family and now stay I'm the USA and have a family of my own. Im now 30 and still looooove this song so much wish Des'ree knew how far her beautiful song brought me❤
I feel the exact same way
genuinely happy for you ❤
We definitely need more music like this today, the world would be a better place
That’s so awesome. Where in Africa did you grow up?
Отрёкся от своей семьи??? Я надеюсь, что это ошибка перевода?
Is there anyone here in 2024?
Yup
Me.
👍🏽
off corse
We here ❤
My girlfriend loved this song so much.
May she rest in peace ❤
*This song is a shout out to people who* *left toxic relationships, bullied, came* *out of depression, survived any form* *of cancer, harmful addictions and for those that was* *mentally or sexually* *abused. Shout out to those incredibly* *resilient individuals who have had to* *rely on their automobiles for shelter.* *Also a shout out to people in loving* *marriages that's still going strong*

Touched. Thanks for that. 💓
Dancing my way to a new me
my dad pass away last year
move sky I genuinely feel so sorry on your behalf. That is very sad.
I’m sure it probably has to be one of the hardest things you’ve ever had to handle. I hope you’re able to one day come to terms with that in your own way and find yourself in your new life without his being a part of it. So many hundreds of thousands of people are out there going through feeling similar to yours. Sometimes it helps me to remember that at the hardest times in my life, I’m not the only person who is feeling what I feel. You know? It can help to remember that you’re not alone.
Sending you my best wishes and hopes for you and everyone who was left behind after his passing, from one human to another. 💕
This song unites us all.
@@movesky6696 im so sorry :( try to speak to him every day it will help you after a short time. You will fell like a speaking for real. Stay stronger and find your true love . i believe in You :)
I feel like this song would heal some souls if played today...
Great comment. This has a super chill vibe
It has healed my soul in some ways.
It is. :-)
Agreed. That's why I took a second to share it on Facebook.❤
Probably would ....even if one soul is saved ...then it's all been worth it
Difference between the 90's and today...43yrs old here. We need to reflect, and give hope to the younger generation
Am 46 and just for your information, its tricky to change our kids... Things gone crazie too fast...
24 here, and absolutely!
This song hit hard when I was child but my god when you get old and realize how great this song really is!
Facts
Agreed

Yup there’s a few songs I like that really get ur attention

She's such an underrated artist. The entire album was feel good music.
Sure was.
Her voice is beautiful such a amazing talent
Especially the line about eating toast watching the evening news
I couldn't agree more!
I’m gonna listen to the album. 🥰
My mom loved this song so much. She passed in 2005, from cancer. Hearing this reminds me of her strength and courage despite what she was facing. I hope to be a fraction of the person she was. Love you mama.
My Condolences..
Im sorry for the loss of your mom. My mom passed away January 3,1998 from breast cancer and I was only 12 at the time and I never stop thinking about her and I even named my oldest daughter after her
Rest in peace.
Sending love ❤ music will keep you moving forward!
And she loves you just the same❤😊
This song helped me when everything was confusing as a little girl. Now almost 2 decades later and I'm needing it again and I'm truly grateful.
me too girl!
Felt those words... we gotta be strong
Keep your chin up. Be strong, have faith, believe in YOU, and never lose hope. I know you will be ok. Sending positive vibes your way. Btw, I too related to this as a youngster, and I still feel it's lyrics in my heart today. Love ya, sis..💛🙏🏻🤝🏻
I come back to this one again and again. It truly is uplifting. We need more of that.
@@sadiek8785 you still been a little girl then this music helps you nowadays.
I'm a very strong woman. Went through one of the TOUGHEST time in my life about a decade ago and this song saved my life.
Updated:
No words can describe how beautiful and incredible amazing you all are. How could there be any thought to the amount of love shown here. The feeling is exuberantly beautiful. Thank you. Happy New Year 2021!
I’m glad you’re still here kicking ass

I love it.
Im happy for you. Stay strong ❤
My husband sang this to me as I was in labor pushing my hardest. He's a big manly Marine and this caught me off guard. One of my happiest memories in life.
La magia de la música que te transporta a épocas, está canción hace parte de la adolescencia de los 90's en Cali aquellos que escuchaban otra alternativa a la salsa y que además iban a discotecas como barbarelas, The factory la época en qué el parche era en el andén con los amigos
That's so cute 🥺
I already like your husband!
Awww I want one those too
You have a gem 💎
This morning, this song just started playing in my soul, and it wasn't a mind thing if that makes sense. Reading some of these comments makes me realise the power of music. I'm now praying 🙏 this over my kids 2 who are stressed about studies in University 2 who have different struggles. God says great will be your children's peace Isaiah 54 v 13 -15
I wish your children every success xxxx
I feel like this song saved a lot of people's lives
IT ABSOLUTELY SAVED MINE 17 YEARS SOBER AMEN
It did
Absolutely and it opened the door for a new romance and marriage when my girlfriend happened to walk into the living room while I was singing with Des ree video with my bass guitar in hand. I happen to glance to my life, at my then girlfriend & she rocked the same moves. Sang in harmony with the video and added her cultural Latin moves.
What?!!!, It looks like I was getting married again! Amore Siempre mi amore ♥
Agreed 💯
🤗🤗🤗🥰🍀🥰🍀
Songs like this were the reason the 80s and 90s seemed so peaceful. There was hope and positivity in the air... I wish we could have continued to build on that positivity.
Show off culture ruined everything
Edward Fields - Those days when as a people we were not too sensitive, we accept our faults & take responsibility.
We should get them back
You hit the nail on the head!
couldn't agree more!!
The world needs this song more than ever right now.
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Yes! 💝🌍💝
I was thinking that too.

Pure groovy sound. That’s Art: Universal. Anytime, anyplace the words happen to be right. Got to be good.
I'm 35, and a white male. This song uplifts me through my depression that I'll never find anyone in this cold world. Thank you for this one.
U will find someone... wait... there is good people. I am waiting too... but I dont feel it like a necesity I just want to travel
La vie trouve toujours son chemin
Find Jesus first to find out what real love looks like, everything else will fall in line.
Can I please give you some advise, from the heart? I know how you feel but the moment you stop focussing on finding a suitable partner, and focus on different things, like...anything you're good at, like painting or learning something new or paragliding for all I care. The minute you don't care anymore how other people perceive you, you'll meet someone.
It happened to me that way, twice. Somehow people have a "nose" for someone that looks too hard.
@@Therapist75002 How on earth do I love a man that I don't know, that I've never even met and who's dead for 2000 years?
I'm sure he was a nice guy and all. But that's a bit too much to ask.
If ever there was a song that embodies motherly wisdom and love, it is this one.
I love your way with wording , its a beautiful way to describe this song. You put into words what i couldnt. Thank you .🎯❤
Amen to that.

My third grade teacher used to play this for us everyday coming to class. Had no idea how much she tried to motivate us to believe in ourselves.
Yes!!.my daughter is graduating college and this is her walking in song!! 2024 when everyone thought she couldn't do she still standing and with high honors!!
CONGRATULATIONS🎉🎉🎉🎈🎈🎈
Hlvohiui😅😅😊😊😊😮😂😂😂😂😊😅😅😮😮😢😢😢😂😂❤❤❤🎉
Congratulations Mommy🎉❤ I also have a 15 year old daughter, I'm also gonna use this song when she graduates university and high school
When women in music were still allowed to be older, elegant, thoughtful and not selling sex.
2019 still rocking this queen
Yes!! The song has s such quality that you don't need to be distracted!
Really? Oh come on, she's 25-26 here. Can't believe you're that obtuse.
i gotta be honest. She is pretty damn sexy!
Mc LBJ shes a very young woman in this music video. I think its that she comes across as "mature" because she is dressed and carries herself as a grownup (which she is). Now we have women in their mid twenties dressing and acting like teenie boopers.
absolutely you are x
I forgot about this song. I'm convinced it's God's message to me because it came right on time. I so needed to hear these words. 💕

My dad, in his Indian accent, would sing this song to me in the car!
🤣 As a fellow Asian, this made me howl. Your dad sounds great
Music knows no colour xx ❤️ go dad
Beautiful ❤️

He sounds like a wonderful man. I lost my dad three years ago and I’m still struggling to work out who or what I am having spent a long time as his carer. Dad’s who sing to their kids are a very special dad. Here’s to all the special dads 💛
May 2024. Amazing memories here. As an English teacher in China, I had teenage Chinese kids singing this in class in 2006. Hoping there is a whole generation of Chinese kids in Hainan trying to be hard tough and stronger. And cool and staying together.
Positivity and uplifting music. Had no idea as a kid back then how time would fly and things would never be the same.
@æspa winter fanboy not bad at all.
Riiiiiiigggght lol

Yup my youngest wants to be a grown up so bad I’m like enjoy being young Bc wen u hit 18 or even 21 time is gonna fly by
@@jerrysouthside8597 yes indeed it does. As the saying goes I wish what I know now I knew when I was younger. Blessings and stay safe.
The 90's had the best and most quality singers.
100% pure talent.
And not auto tune 😭
Yes it does
almost super 70s # 1
@exotic right!
Not even close to the 70's. Marvin Gaye, Curtis Mayfield, Issac Hayes, Spinners, Ojays, Con Funk Shun, Rose Royce, Earth Wind & Fire, Heatwave, The Jones Girls, Sister Sledge, Lakeside, Chic, Chicago, ToTo, Bobby Caldwell, Roy Ayers-Everybody Loves The Sunshine, Hall & Oates, The Emotions, Lenny Williams, Patrice Rushen, Rufus & Chaka Khan, Teddy Pendergrass & Stephanie Mills. I could name thousands more on the R&B and Soft Rock Side, Micheal McDonald & The Doobie Brothers, Carly Simon, The Carpenters. Smdh. And these Artists wrote, produced ans sang and played instruments. Where are most of the 90's Artist now, most of them are retired. While the 70's Artists played til death are still performing like Pattie Labelle, Phil Collins, Gladys Knight and James Taylor, Phillip Bailey
Too bad she's not making music nowadays. Unlike most of the stuff we hear nowadays, she's actually giving out good advice.

What are you talking about, I heard a song from Eminem just the other day about beating the shit outta bitches and stuffing them in the trunks of cars, best advices evar!

In 1995 after a tearful goodbye to my mom this song was playing on the radio as I pulled away from my house. I was flying halfway around the world to follow my heart. So this song has a very special place in my heart!
How did it turn out?
Juli Jones sorry for your loss
I am sorry for your loss. Believe me I listened to a lot of inspiration music when my mother passed away in 2016. Because it does help
I need to do what u did... I need to find my path
Great. Spent 5 years living in another country. Made lifelong friends. @@lisadean619
I got out of a relationship with a narcissist, I'm pushing everyone away... I'm scared of the world. This song gives me strength!

I recently lost both of my grandparents, all within the span of a month. They were sunshine to me. My grief at this time is immeasurable but this song gives me courage. It feels like they're speaking to me through the lyrics.
sorry for your loss 💕 so heartwarming to hear this song spoke to you.
@@glosariodawson7028 Thank you. The song brings me much needed healing and courage :)

@@alionesscanroar623 Thanks so much for the kind words. Stay safe.
They must’ve really loved each other. When the first died, it broke the other’s heart. My Condolences. 😔
Remembering my granddaughter 's kindergartener class singing this as their exit song preparing for 1st grade. How empowering long before I knew what empowering meant.
Ernestine Morrison I still dont
My kindergarten graduation too!
My 6th grade graduation :)
I song this in kinder too😱
You can’t help but the feel the energy and intention with which this song was written ❤️ It was written to inspire, move and empower and years later it still continues to punch you in your soul

I love how some women can express themselves with just their hands. She is so underrated.
Not just a fantastic voice, she's just flat out STUNNING

Yes!
She is pretty. I think this is my first time seeing her.
She’s gorgeous!!! Beautiful song, definitely makes me nostalgic… the 90s, what a time to be a kid!!!

Keeping you in prayer.
You're more than your depression, may god continue to give you the strength to keep pushing on!
It's like affirmation songs ya

Good Morning 💋
It's impossible to listen to this song and not feel uplifted.
🔝🔝🔝
I've never heard so many truths in one song before 😭....
Bet Justin Timberlake or Pharrell Williams would have thought of this?
You made me go bk and listen once more.
My dad would always sing this song to me. He passed in 2015 💕
This song is forever helping me with my anxiety!
Me too GAD sucks. This song pulls the worst panic attacks away.
Jenny Bravo 😊💜
Im with you there keep going moving is key
SAME GURL SAME
My daughter has anxiety
while the 80s was about great party pop hits and rock ballads, the 90s was about emotion
80's were the best
80s was full of emotions child. Some of the best love songs
PERFECT synopsis
The way I see it, the 80s were all about singles while the 90s were all about musical albums.
Everybody had their own decade that made them feel different but mine is definitely 90s because it brings back those memories
Oh the 90's, hands down the best era to be a child.
thanks and it was lol blessings to u!
I agree a million times!!!!!!!!!
agreed 100%
I absolutely agree
I can say yes but I was a kid in the 80s so I was a preteen nineties. The '90s has some good music I just I'm a little more partial to the '80s but I don't disagree with you!
They dont shoot videos like this anymore, omg! so creative. The producer is sooo ahead of his time, my God!😢❤
I’m literally crying rn. I haven’t heard this song in years and my mum raised me on old school songs. She didn’t pass away but I finally realise what the lyrics mean😌💕
Simply one of the greatest, most motivating and genuinely beneficial songs I've ever heard. A timeless classic. This single alone is sufficient for Desree's fame and legacy.
100% true... Well said about it... ♥️
We hope to immortalize this song by using it to honor a apparition of the Virgin Mary seen by over one million people at Clearwater Florida
on the large windows of Seminole Indian office building as a lady rainbow 🌈 with a brown face.
You Got That Shit Right
HELL YEAH
Songs like this is why I'm so thankful for being a 80's baby. Kids of today do not have music like this to keep them positive through tough times.
well said!
I totally agree
damn the 80s and early 90s had a ton of positive songs. seems like its only gotten more nihilistic, purposeless since
@@jaykong1128 AI computers write the music now, it lacks soul
Music was falling off in quality way before AI@@kris78787
Natural beauty was so cool in the 80s and 90’s!

Remember hearing this on the radio everyday in the 90's early 2000's.😊
Time flies, but you gotta be wiser.
Ye
Well said.
It's OUR fault why this type of music isn't promoted. It can be brought back, WE just have to do it.
Not really. When it comes to pop culture, including music, trends are decided by a handful of people, like producers and executives (the latter were, previously, mainly from record labels, but nowadays from online library services like spotify or deezer). During the time of concentrated means of recording (prior to the internet, that is, the time of big record labels) the sheer volume of promotion on radios was the deciding factor of what became popular. Nowaday anyone can record and publish their work online, but to get acknowledged by the masses most rely on either popular playlists on spotify etc., or going viral through short videos that take a few viral worthy secs of songs. In the end, safe for a few exceptions, what gets promoted is decided by small groups of people, it has always been. Individuals can have different preferences and demand different things, but there isn't any cohesion in society to form a significant movement that can actually cause any influence in what gets promoted.
How right you are!
The music we consume now is kind of prove of decline of this society ..
What would the world do without WAP 😂😂😂
We need somebody to explode on the scene and completely change music and culture. They only come around once a generation.
I'm 26 years old right now. Will be 27 in a couple of weeks. If you're around my age, you probably remember hearing this song a lot on PBS Kids/WTTW (Channel 11 in Chicago) every morning around the time that Sesame Street, Barney, Arthur, etc. was coming on back in the 90's and early 2000's. This song as well as the version of Somewhere Over The Rainbow by Iz Kamakawiwo'ole made PBS Kids lit asf. LBVS
Derrick Jackson reading rainbow?? Haha my childhood! Dont forget Wishbone! I was born in 91.
Less Is More Oh yes. Wishbone was one of my favorite shows.
I'm same age as u, from Yugoslavia so I grew up to 90s music like Let's Get Loud, I Got The Power, Smoth Operator ...
@@lessismore8533 me too. i was born in '91. meaningful time indeed
Derrick Jackson I know you commented this two whole months ago, but just want to let you know reading this comment made me shed a tear. I’m a few years younger than you, but am in my twenties, I was born and partially raised in Chicago. Channel 11, is where I first heard this song. Same with the Over the Rainbow. I remember the programming block with Arthur, Wishbone, Between the Lions, etc. And it really takes me to a state of serenity, of a child’s imagination. A colorful place I guess. It’s three in the morning and I don’t live in Chicago anymore, haven’t for 13 years, but that is by far one of my most beautiful memories in an otherwise sort of strange childhood. Thank you so much for this comment.
This is one of my healing songs
As a preteen listening to this track in my bedroom I never thought those catchy lyrics would be so meaningful in my adult life I love this era ✨
Preach
Absolutely
I haven’t heard this song in over 20 years. I’m 30 and this just takes me back. I miss this type of music.
im a '93 baby and i remember listening and loving this song, and i still do!!! it is encouraging, comforting, and uplifting song!!! this is such a good song, i tear up every time i listen to this song!!! she has a beautiful, calming voice!!! love the message!!
same
She's beautiful, elegant and powerful. Take me back to the 90's!
I am 32 years of age and I first heard this song in late 1999 or when I started 2nd grade. My 2nd grade teacher played this song from time to time.

To add perspective to the reality of just how fast tine truly does go, in 1999, I was in my freshman year in college. This song came out around 1993-1994 between my 7th and 8th grade years in middle school. I am 44 right now.
The CD had only come out a few years prior so we were still operating largely on the cassette tape. I remember keeping a blank tape in my tape recorder, queued up so I wouldn't miss the first few seconds of the song. If I wasn't near my recorder, I'd miss sobe. But I made every effort to record this song the moment the radio DJ announced it would be on the next set. I still have that cassette tape packed away sonewhere in a box. Comically, I have no equipment to play the tape today.
STILL Encourages Me in 2020.., who’s with me?❤️🌞
Here today, October 1, 2020 🙏🏽✨💖
Whoop whoop!

Yasss!!!
I am an Indian and now lives in India but 28 years ago, when I visited USA for the first time, I listened this song "You Gotta be" on way to home from Airport in a cab radio and since then it's my inspiration to do the things. Whenever I feel loenly or nervous, I surely listen this song that gives me energy to do the things.
🙏
Sending you love wherever you may find yourself in this big but oh so small world ❤
This song got me through the 90s.
That's how beautiful my childhood was, the music was great, therapeutic, and building.
Such a beautiful woman.. Such a beautiful song...
icebluelu 👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👌
This song always helped me when I was really little. We went on a lot of road trips and my parents fought everywhere all the time. It would always play at the perfect moment when they'd stop fighting and be in a sad bitter silence. Her voice was like a hug when I needed it.
That is beautiful...I'm sure God sent those hugs. Wish I could hug you right now. Thank you for sharing that 😊
Omg thank you for sharing, that's a really beautiful bittersweet story
Stonedallday, sending u mad love, so glad this song helped you man. Stay mega strong🌸🌸🌸🌸
As a DV survivor of 13 years this song is very uplifting for me ❤stay strong !
Its shocking to witness so many dislikes on a song that delivers meaningful msg.There's nothing really to hate about this song.Hard to believe it's 90s,sounds like it was made today.
+Raisa Cherry probably the modern day kids who cant accept the fact that modern music SUCKS!!!
Raisa Cherry: Indeed!...And that's an issue for debate...from a few years back and up until now, I've been noticing the same trend here on RUclips, in many videos!...Why is that for?!...It sure is a bit awkward, regarding the fact that these are definitely superior songs to the average shity music we are obliged to listen to nowadays!...
M Sanne so true!!!
+dai suke Nice 2 meet u :)
+dai suke I m also hurt a lil cuz some1 called me bad name.But ignored it.
This song came out in 1994. This song was played on Top 40 radio stations until 2003. The staying power of this song can't be denied.
Heard it in a cookie shop a few days ago. Mad staying power
Just curious, what is your profile picture?
