Feeling Alive​H​an​son

Released: October 10, 2016

Songwriter: Zac Hanson Taylor Hanson Isaac Hanson

[Verse 1]
I’ve never been a bleeder
Rarely a compete-r
I’m not the big boss
Always weighing the cost

I’m a man I’m not a ghost
I’m a guest without a host
My story isn’t sterile
Been on both sides of the barrel

I’m not beating my chest
Or claiming I’m the best
But tonight I know what I could be

[Pre-Chorus]
Tonight I won’t stand still
Even if the cannons fire
I’m humble by your side
Tonight I won’t stand still
Even if we don’t survive
I’m humble at your side

And I’m feeling alive

[Chorus]
Lift your hands up high
Reach up to the sky
Let voices sing together
Watch the sound multiply

Lift your hands up high
Reach up to the sky
Let voices sing together
Watch the sound multiply

Hey, and I'm feeling alive

[Verse]
Don’t say that I’m a leader
Don’t call me señorita
Don’t offer me a light
I need someone who can fight

I’m not a champion
I don’t want to be superman
Never stood behind a cause
Or said “hold the applause”

I must confess
I’ve been a man without a quest
But I heard my gut say
It’s your time to play

[Pre-Chorus]
So tonight I won’t stand still
Even if the cannons fire
I’m humble by your side

Tonight I won’t stand still
Even if we don’t survive
I’m humble at your side

[Chorus]
So lift your hands up high
Reach up to the sky
Let voices sing together
Watch the sound multiply

Lift your hands up high
Reach up to the sky
Let voices sing together
Watch the sound multiply

Hey, I'm feeling alive

[Verse 3]
Nobody’s got the answers
So I’m changing my plans because
I’ve fallen on my face
While just standing in place

When it’s all said and done
If we’ve lost or won
I’ll know I am not a faker
I’m a “I know what’s at stake-r”

[Pre-Chorus]
I’ve said
Just about
All I can say
There’s just one act left in this play
And I’m feeling alive

[Chorus]
So lift your hands up high
Reach up to the sky
Let voices sing together
Watch the sound multiply

Lift your hands up high
Reach up to the sky
Let voices sing together
Watch the sound multiply

Lift your hands up high
Reach up to the sky
Let voices sing together
Watch the sound multiply

And I’m feeling alive

​H​an​son

With 20+ years under their belts as a band, brothers Isaac, Taylor, and Zac Hanson have definitely made their mark! Five years building a fanbase as an independent band led to a meteoric rise in 1997 as they released their first commercial single, “MMMBop,” from their debut album Middle of Nowhere. The catchy, bubblegum pop appeal of the song helped make the band a household name.

A long line of hits and studio albums, multiple Grammy nominations and over 16 million album sales worldwide followed.

The band now runs an independent label while maintaining a “coveted connection with their global fanbase.”
