Life Changes

Thomas Rhett’s song Life Changes is an upbeat country song that discusses the changes Rhett has experienced through out his life. This song is incredibly relatable as he sings about how fast time goes by and how you never know how life will change. “Waking up in my college dorm. Yeah, my life, it was pretty normal.” The song opens with Rhett taking listeners back to when he was in college. He describes his life to be pretty average, and has no real future plans. “Majoring in undecided, notebooks full of bad songs I was writing.” He day dreams of writing songs and performing instead of dong classwork and did not picture his music going anywhere. Rhett is a very talented and humbled artist and worked very hard to get to the top of the country charts. One of the most important messages from this song is to not stress too much about the things that are not important in life because years down the road those things won’t matter anymore. Rhett is an example of this because he was worried about his undecided college career but knew that if he worked hard and trusted god he would achieve his dreams.

The video to this song shows Rhett’s life today. He is touring and spending time with his family while smiling and just simply enjoying his life. Rhett is a family man and sings about his two daughters and beloved wife. Life Changes describes the most impactful years of Rhett’s life. He discusses his marriage and how people judged him for settling down so young. In the song he mention that even though he was only twenty-two he has known she was the one since the second grade. One of the cutest moments to the song is when Rhett mentions how him in his wife decided to adopt and then ended up having their own child also. His two little girls are shown in the video many times and clearly mean the world to Rhett. “Ain’t it funny how life changes.” This quote is repeated through out the song and draws attention back to Rhett’s main point. He finds it funny how you go through your different stages in your life and can end up at a point you might not ever imagine yourself at. Life Changes is a great song for understanding the ups and downs of your life and trying to look at life in a positive way because you never know what could happen.
