This song literally got me through my divorce 5 years ago. Just remarried, got a better job, and have generally been kicking ass since then. Thanks, Frank.
That's how you write a fucking song. Take an idea that's fundamentally human, present it in a way that conveys your voice and your heart but doesn't exclude anyone else's, and say it like you fucking mean it.
Wow. Been struggling since I had a relapse of my depression last year. I lost my flat, been suicidal, been trying to get my life back together. Been having a really rough couple of days, wondering if it's worth it, or if this is going to be my life forever. This song is just what I needed. So unexpectd, but it made things a little brighter, reminded me to be hopeful. I can get better. I know you're never going to read this, but thankyou. I've been avoiding your music lately because it reminds me of my ex, but this song honestly has helped, even if just to remind me to never stop fighting. It may feel like it, but I'm not dead yet.
+xoxsofixox We're going to get through this, I dont know you but I'm in the same boat, I just got out of my depression but I feel it pulling me back every day, one day we'll look back and kick ourselves for being this way!
We’re in this together. Speak up, speak out. Smash the stigma of mental health issues. Be open, be honest. Take care of each other. No one makes it through this thing called life alone.
I lost my brother today after a long while with dialysis. He was 38 I'm 33. But I also found this song today that felt I needed to find. For when I'm done grieving. Great song
Thank you. This song saved me, thank you. My mind went down a dark road and this song started playing and, I can't even explain what happened, it's like I had a sudden realisation of truth, it isn't a miracle cure, I still feel low, but I can reside in this song when I do, I felt like I had purpose and that there was hope, I have listened to it so much ever since, I can't express my gratitude enough, thank you, people like you are saving lives, thank you.
i taught my taste of music was akward. past and used and i found kaerrang radio and now i can enjoy music knowing that other people likes what i like i know your feeling when suddently all your life is thrown in a song Never give up bro !
My mom played this song on the way home from dropping out of college. It really made me feel more secure in my future, because I know I can fight for it to be a good one. Literally teared up during his music because of how much I needed it. Thank you so much.
I was really struggling today. Fucked up at work last night and have been awake spiraling until now. I tried all the strategies in the book. I have no idea how I came across this song, there's no algorithm explanation and it was on Spotify. I usually avoid things like this because im worried about indulging in self loathing. So I have zero idea how the algorithm found this for me. but the universe provided. I was so. Fucking. Done. And for the first time in a long time, something gave me hope. Frank, bro, thank you. You have a new fan. I think this may have just saved a life.
I know it kept me going though some pretty wicked bouts of depression. I still get annoyed at the time one of my friends called his stuff "sad boy music". Dude didn't recognize the underlying thread of hope and the push to climb out of it.
This song is for the people who have nothing to show but the clothes on their backs. It’s for the people with no talents, no beauty, who have been to hell and back and are worse for it. It’s for the people who have no reason to keep going. I have nothing, nothing to show the world but myself and my own two hands, and I’ll be damned if I’m going to let anyone take that away from me. I fought too hard to keep myself, to find myself, and I’m not letting it go. Everything I have I worked for, and so my dignity and happiness is mine to keep. Everyday I try to be a better person than I was the day before
Frank is a lyrical genius, this song definitely shook some rust off of me tonight. Thank you Frank, i don't know of you knew you were gonna help some kid on the internet with a powerful 3 minute song but you did and again thank you
So I started singing this after my last October. I lost a lot of my friends, my ex wife, was hospitalized, and was working the hardest job of my life. It's coming up on my one year anniversary of it all and while scared I sung this again recently at karaoke. My new friends loved it and it helps me get through. I know you probably will not read this Frank, but thank you.
years may have gone by but this song brings me out of almost any dark place when I listen to it. Frank, your music is so uplifting and wonderful and it's changed my life. You're incredible!
I can't even explain what this song means to me. As a Recovery nurse, it hits hard. As a survivar of abuse, it's hits so much harder. My fiance taught me this song and now I teach if to others, because we get better togther.
I listen to this song every day. If I start to slip back this song always brings me back. To say that it’s saved my life is an understatement. It makes me want to strive to actually live and not just survive.
Can't wait to see this live tomorrow. Has to have been nearly ten years since I last saw him. 15 since I last saw MCR. The nostalgia will be flowing through me all night.
As someone who has suffered with depression for 20+ years, survived four suicide attempts, and has children who are showing signs of mental illness this song really touched a chord with me. It reminds me never to give up, even if I'm at my lowest. Thank you Frank for being an awesome songwriter. Your latest album kicks serious ass.
This song came out at a time where I was off of work for 4 months signed off sick with crippling back pain, came back to work and was fired due to being 'unreliable'. If it hadn't been for this song I'm pretty sure I'd have slipped back into the depression that I've suffered from since I was 13. This song is also the reason I'm now in China teaching English and loving every second of my life. If I ever feel shoddy this is the song I put on and it never fails to put me together again.
This song always chokes me up a bit because it reminds me of a time where I needed to get better and I did and I continue to all the time. It helped me dig deep and persevere. Thank you Frank.
This has become my anthem since my subarachnoid hemorrhage and Brain aneurysm surgery last May . Since I learned I died 3 times on the table and again in recovery I thought I was not as I was before , suffered bloody awful anxiety for months but at my worst I put this on and I have to say it REALLY helped . Thank you Frank , music , my family , my friends & especially my husband have brought me back very nearly to exactly who I was before
Thank You Frank Turner. I always go back to this when having silly fights with my GF, and now current Fiancé. Just makes me get thru days and see some fights are just silly and there are far heavier things to worry about
I saw Frank last Friday in Louisville, Kentucky... easily the best live show I've seen. He's way into it and is very passionate about putting on a great show. He played this song too. Everyone really should see this man live.
“Not dead yet…” words that hit me so deeply. I can’t even begin to explain how much this song means to me right now. Thank you, just thank you. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Well let me be first one to say that I didn't expect this. This is one kick ass song. The energy and rawness of this grabs you by the throat and rocks your soul. Nicely done!
The first show I want to go to after all of this is over is a Frank Turner one. Really regret that I've never seen him live, I had tickets in 2018 but didn't go. His music has kept me going through this year, can't think of anyone else who makes such life-affirming music.
Was lucky enough to see Frank Turner tonight in Salisbury, for the second time following on from Reading festival. Was an amazing performance by Frank and the Sleeping Souls and also his support acts, Esme Patterson and Felix Hagan and the Family. They were all so energetic, so entertaining, that as soon as the evening ended, I booked tickests for their Portsmouth date in December!
"Lyric video"?? Nah man. This is a REALLY GOOD music video. Like, really good. Whoever came up with the concept and/or filmed it deserves a big heap of praise. I thought it was super cool. also NEW FRANK TURNER MUSIC YEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAA
HisLordDudeness I would love to have one of those. My dad has held a "not dead yet" party every year for the past few years on the anniversary of his terminal cancer diagnosis and it's become our unofficial family motto. This is already my favorite song by Frank simply because of that personal meaning.
Thanks mate, this will save lives! A Suicide Survivor from last December, I am doing everything I can to make the best of my second chance for me and my loved ones.
Did anyone else expect the album cover from the upcoming album to appear at the very end of the chain? Great video, fantastic song! I can't wait for the album!
If this is what the new album is going to sound like I am definitely going to be buying it when it drops. This guy just can't release a bad song, always feel better when I hear any songs of his. Some of the best lyrics of the modern day and the best feeling music too.
Really an amazing song. It has helped me through a really rough patch in my life and now has a whole new meaning in my life. The fight is truly worth it!
This is so good. It's hopeful, not sugary, drawing it's strength from grit and tenacity as opposed to mindless, unjustifiable optimism. This really spoke to me.
3 Frank Turner songs saved my life this year for real!! This being the song which helped me recover for good. Thank you Frank doesn’t even cover it!! #NOT DEAD YET
I listen to this song every day when I wake to remind me that I have something to live up to and not to give up. It's really helped me and I've only discovered Frank Turner this year but I've already fallen in love with his songs, and that is a great thing because he's absolutely amazing. Thank you so much for being you Frank Turner. Please don't ever stop.
This is officially my song of 2015. I've been through quite a lot mentally and emotionally this year and as Frank says 'I'm trying to get better cause I haven't been my best'
I just lived through the worst week of my life. This song has become my anthem. Thank you Frank. I’ll be in the crowd May 13 at the Stone Pony with my Daughter ( her first Frank Turner show and my 6th) singing along! I can’t wait!
I honestly am tired of Frank not getting an iota of the credit he deserves. I only became a fan of his in recent years which speaks to the testament to that fact. Had he gotten what he deserved we would hear him everyday on the radio and would all be singing The balled of me and my friends.
I keep coming back to this I FUCKING LOVE YOU FRANK (your music will always remind me of the girl that got away, but with a smile on my face...Leanne 😃)
I've only just discovered Frank Turner. I'm surprised he's not more popular here in the US-- his music is so catchy and the lyrics are just wonderful. So many of his songs just seem to hit home for me.
When I feel like Life is overwhelming and getting to be too much, this song gives me the strength to keep pushing through the challenges. Your lyrics are an inspiration man, thank you so much.
When I am at that point of failure, this song reverbs as a battel cry. This album has been in my car for over half a decade now. I love singing along! Megaprops - FT has kept me on the cogent strain of sane more times than I care to admit!
So I'm jamming this at work today (on lunch) and when he peaks out I push my chair away from my desk, across the room, because he's punching me in my reality like Joe Frazier. Dude nails me every time.
This is now turning into my new favourite one of your songs, recovery, next storm, the way I tend to be, reasons not to be and idiot, photosynthesis are still up there
For a while I've been struggling with what...well, what i wouldn't admit is probably depression. It's made things hard, and because of it I'm...I don't have many people I'm close to. I'm not good with asking for help, and this makes me feel like I'm weak- when i want to be strong. This song reminds me that even taking small steps is something, i'm moving forward, I'm not going to lose. My life might be being held together my scraps of tape, but that doesn't mean i can't fix it and move on. I'm not giving up, even if it hurts, even if i get worse, no matter what, I can't. Thank you.
You know there isn't a lot of frank turner lovers out there but I know u guys are and I need to tell u that you have got a good taste in music I love him so much x
music needs ore fank turners..his songs sometimes feel like they're my best friend...i always introduce new people i meet to frank's music. i listen with rap fans, punks, pop fans...he's for everyone... how many more times will this song save my life?
it's 2024. I still listen to this song every now and then to remember myself what I'm worth. Thank you, Frank Turner.
When "I haven't been doing so well" I simply put on some Mr. Frank Turner and cry and smile at the same time. ❤❤
I'm so lucky to have found someone to draw a line across my broken heart
@@steveyjmurray I know what you mean!
❤❤❤
Same.
Frank Turner is aggressively positive, while recognizing the darkness in our lives. A songwriter and storyteller we do not deserve.
O no, we deserve him since we need him ;-)!
im here a year after this song made me believe my life could get better. thank you so much frank turner, this means the world to me
Absolutely
Hope it just keeps getting better, friend.
May you always see the road rising up to meet you. And your enemies, defeated, in the mirror, behind.
This song literally got me through my divorce 5 years ago. Just remarried, got a better job, and have generally been kicking ass since then. Thanks, Frank.
Going through it now and this song is my daily ballad!!
Good job getting better.
That's how you write a fucking song. Take an idea that's fundamentally human, present it in a way that conveys your voice and your heart but doesn't exclude anyone else's, and say it like you fucking mean it.
look up the punk movement in 1977 mate, stiff little fingers, angelic upstarts, sex pistols will give u a start :)
I wrote a few songs like this an I believe it helps inspired from this video I was like hell yes, I'm try that,
This song is so powerful it could save lives. Exactly what I needed to hear right now.
+Semi_Sweet I know exactly what you mean. The whole album is so raw and full of truth. It's a lyrical kick up the arse :)
This song came exactly when I needed it to. And I couldn't help but think... Frank Turner just saved my life xxx
Me too! Job-eliminated from a Fortune 500 company - last day yesterday. ...going back for a second interview at a better company in a few days.
PopsGribs
Go you! Good luck on the interview :)
Thank you!
I always cry when I hear this song. Depression sucks but there's hope. Just stay strong, this too shall pass.
i always cry when listening to it. But we can get better :')
🤘🏼....truer words never spoken!!!
are u still depressed mate? just reaching out after I suffered it last year
@@festihead actually doing much better now. But thanks bruv.

+xoxsofixox I've been avoiding this music 'cause it's usually depressing. But it did the same thing for me.. I feel good.
+xoxsofixox I'm so happy I stumbled upon this song, it really helped me as well.
+xoxsofixox We're going to get through this, I dont know you but I'm in the same boat, I just got out of my depression but I feel it pulling me back every day, one day we'll look back and kick ourselves for being this way!

We’re in this together. Speak up, speak out. Smash the stigma of mental health issues. Be open, be honest. Take care of each other. No one makes it through this thing called life alone.

this song saved my life. Not once, but twice or more. I'm not sure
Frank Turner: King of the Self-Affirmation Song
This song will save lives. It’s catchy, the message is great and it’s true. We’re not dead yet. Always get better and never accept less.
I know it kept me going though some pretty wicked bouts of depression. I still get annoyed at the time one of my friends called his stuff "sad boy music". Dude didn't recognize the underlying thread of hope and the push to climb out of it.

sounds like a song willing to be sung ❤

Hello
years may have gone by but this song brings me out of almost any dark place when I listen to it. Frank, your music is so uplifting and wonderful and it's changed my life. You're incredible!
Might be the best Frank song there is.

I'm pretty sure many of his songs are about being in recovery from drugs and alcohol. I can relate. Almost six months. Miracle, dude. Miracle.
Kay Brown, congrats!! So proud!
I hope you're still well!!
come on, you can do this! stay clean!
I'm 27 months, heroin, and booze free. I hope you're still going strong, too
Hope you're still rocking sobriety.. I'm two years in and this song has always been one of the songs that kept me going..❤️

Thank You Frank Turner. I always go back to this when having silly fights with my GF, and now current Fiancé.
Just makes me get thru days and see some fights are just silly and there are far heavier things to worry about
Congratz! Do you already know when the wedding day takes place?
@@AllTimeAmberx Early Next Year :)
Saw Frank last night in Newcastle. best concert I have been to in 15 years. Guy rocks out.
This song hits so hard in all the best ways possible.
I saw Frank last Friday in Louisville, Kentucky... easily the best live show I've seen. He's way into it and is very passionate about putting on a great show. He played this song too. Everyone really should see this man live.
“Not dead yet…” words that hit me so deeply. I can’t even begin to explain how much this song means to me right now. Thank you, just thank you. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
John Pavlovitz and Frank, thanks for sharing your feelings. I know I'm not alone with my anger
Well let me be first one to say that I didn't expect this. This is one kick ass song. The energy and rawness of this grabs you by the throat and rocks your soul. Nicely done!
This song has really changed my mental direction in times when it was not going the right way.. so thank you for rerouting me in a way 🖤🫶🏼
The first show I want to go to after all of this is over is a Frank Turner one. Really regret that I've never seen him live, I had tickets in 2018 but didn't go. His music has kept me going through this year, can't think of anyone else who makes such life-affirming music.
finally saw him live last night and holy shit i don't think there is a more cathartic song live than this one 😭 thank you, Frank
Was lucky enough to see Frank Turner tonight in Salisbury, for the second time following on from Reading festival. Was an amazing performance by Frank and the Sleeping Souls and also his support acts, Esme Patterson and Felix Hagan and the Family. They were all so energetic, so entertaining, that as soon as the evening ended, I booked tickests for their Portsmouth date in December!
This song gets me through so many 'dark days' I blast this every 'bad day' thank you 🙏
"Lyric video"?? Nah man. This is a REALLY GOOD music video. Like, really good. Whoever came up with the concept and/or filmed it deserves a big heap of praise. I thought it was super cool.
also NEW FRANK TURNER MUSIC YEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAA
You're right. I love the song too, and that's the most important part, but the video is also a brilliant idea, and it's beautifully executed.
Dylan subterranean home sick blues video is where this stems from
I'm sure I'm not the only one praying that that 'Not Dead Yet' T-Shirt will be available for all of us to buy...

This is already my favorite song by Frank simply because of that personal meaning.
Emma Hawkins whereeee ? :O I need one
I don't know :/ It's gone off the store now but it was on there yesterday!
Its back on his store for preorder now!!
Frank Turner doesn't get nearly as much love and attention as he deserves.
let this be the rallying cry for the days to come...
Saw him twice in 24 hours in Atlanta last weekend. Best 2 concerts ever.
modernmennis Only saw him once, but the minute he started playing this song at Shaky Knees I knew I was going to start playing it on repeat
This song is the only thing thats been here for me throughout life
Thanks mate, this will save lives! A Suicide Survivor from last December, I am doing everything I can to make the best of my second chance for me and my loved ones.
I needed this song today more than ever
I hope you are in a better way now
"not dead yet" tattooed on my wrist ^^ as a permanent reminder, always keep going and always get better
This is absolutely beautiful.
Did anyone else expect the album cover from the upcoming album to appear at the very end of the chain? Great video, fantastic song! I can't wait for the album!
Chris W Maybe it did..:P Or at least the name, I'm thinking it may be called 'Not Dead Yet'.
That's not the album cover, it's the cover of his new book "The Road Beneath My Feet" that comes out on Thursday.
Jacob Selsor Already out, not got that cover. It's him on stage.

This is so good. It's hopeful, not sugary, drawing it's strength from grit and tenacity as opposed to mindless, unjustifiable optimism. This really spoke to me.
3 Frank Turner songs saved my life this year for real!! This being the song which helped me recover for good. Thank you Frank doesn’t even cover it!! #NOT DEAD YET
Never stop Frank! You are an engine that inspires. energises and gives people the wings to fly! Thank you for your magnificent music!!
I listen to this song every day when I wake to remind me that I have something to live up to and not to give up. It's really helped me and I've only discovered Frank Turner this year but I've already fallen in love with his songs, and that is a great thing because he's absolutely amazing. Thank you so much for being you Frank Turner. Please don't ever stop.
This is officially my song of 2015. I've been through quite a lot mentally and emotionally this year and as Frank says 'I'm trying to get better cause I haven't been my best'
Frank's still saving us all in 2022- in so many inexpressible ways
Not gonna lie. This song saved my life this month.
Mr Turner Sir, I Salute You Yet Again! Cheers
I just lived through the worst week of my life. This song has become my anthem. Thank you Frank. I’ll be in the crowd May 13 at the Stone Pony with my Daughter ( her first Frank Turner show and my 6th) singing along! I can’t wait!

Brilliant! Another great Frank Turner song. Hurry back to NYC!!
This hit so hard.
This is what music should be.
I've only just discovered Frank Turner. I'm surprised he's not more popular here in the US-- his music is so catchy and the lyrics are just wonderful. So many of his songs just seem to hit home for me.
Got cut apart, died, came back... found new friends, dead love gone, stronger love found.. getting better
When I feel like Life is overwhelming and getting to be too much, this song gives me the strength to keep pushing through the challenges. Your lyrics are an inspiration man, thank you so much.
When I am at that point of failure, this song reverbs as a battel cry. This album has been in my car for over half a decade now. I love singing along!
Megaprops - FT has kept me on the cogent strain of sane more times than I care to admit!
So I'm jamming this at work today (on lunch) and when he peaks out I push my chair away from my desk, across the room, because he's punching me in my reality like Joe Frazier. Dude nails me every time.
This is now turning into my new favourite one of your songs, recovery, next storm, the way I tend to be, reasons not to be and idiot, photosynthesis are still up there
For a while I've been struggling with what...well, what i wouldn't admit is probably depression. It's made things hard, and because of it I'm...I don't have many people I'm close to. I'm not good with asking for help, and this makes me feel like I'm weak- when i want to be strong.
This song reminds me that even taking small steps is something, i'm moving forward, I'm not going to lose. My life might be being held together my scraps of tape, but that doesn't mean i can't fix it and move on. I'm not giving up, even if it hurts, even if i get worse, no matter what, I can't.
Thank you.
Cannot stop listening to this frank turner you are in my opinion a LEGEND, thank you!
