I Was Born Video Released.

May 05, 2017 | ZacHanson

If you haven't seen it already, stop what you're doing and check out the lyric video for "I Was Born" that we put up this morning. 

https://youtu.be/8AwFFxA00RQ

This is the first time anyone has heard the full album version of "I Was Born" even though we played it acoustic and electric during our time at SXSW a few weeks back. We wanted to do a simple lyric video to start things off because we feel like the message of this song is so powerful. It is not a new idea, but it is something that is worth repeating.  

Do. Go. Be.

This year we will be going a lot of places, doing the thing we were meant for, and as always, being who we are, unabashedly.  Starting with these simple vistas and moments and people is a way to set the stage for this song, a way to put it in context. We hope you love the song. Please watch it, share it, and let it inspire you.  More soon 

NOTE: "I Was Born" will be released digitally on may 26th.

If this song doesn't become a hit it would be a tragesty.

I love this song, so much meaning in the lyric's and the footage is perfect for the video. It would be awesome if it gets played on radio but it will be great to hear it played on the tour.

So many of the things happening in the video remind me of things that Hanson has done over the years, I think they said it would.

Is this part one of the 5 video's they talked about?

It's perfect; both the lyric video and the timing for such an invigorating song. People need this. The World needs a break, a dose of cheer for a change. Culture has reached peak bleakness.

This day in history, May 6th, (AKA - Hanson Day to us...):

1954:  Medical student, Roger Bannister broke the four-minute-mile during a track meet in Oxford, England, in 3:59.4.

P.S.  Nike should use "I Was Born" in their ads.  #JustDoIt  Just sayin'  ;)

I am obsessed. LOVE this song and loving the video, too! I think I've played it like 20 times already this morning. I just can't get enough of it. I would love to see this simply blow up the airwaves - is that too much to ask?! LoL.
