Thank you for touching my heart. I know that someday things may be like this for my little girl. She goes off to college this year, and time just seems to fly by. Again, thank you.

This was a moving and tender commercial. A girl will always have a soft spot for her daddy...even if he's been gone a long time. I miss you, Daddy.

I can't thank FBL enough for these TV spots. Every time they come on I cry and am reminded about the positive things in life and how important values are.

I have never in my life had a commercial bring me to tears/sobs like this commercial did and it doesn't even matter if it's the 1st or 10th time that I've seen it. So moving. Take each day as if it were your last and don't take anyone for granted. Love you daddy!!

I can honestly say that no other commercial has brought me even close to crying, until I saw this one. This one made me cry and think of how special my dad is to me and to most people. I LOVE YOU DADDY.

This song makes me think of what my daddy will be like when he gets older, and the little girl reminds me of myself. He helped me ride my bike, too, and even though I fell off sometimes, he picked me up every time. My dad is 25 years old and even though I might be ten, I love my dad so much and I'm telling him this - I love you, Daddy and I always will.

I started crying when I saw this commercial. My daddy passed away December 27th. He was battling cancer but passed away very unexpectedly. We played this song at his wake and funeral. He was the most amazing person you would ever meet. He would do anything for just about anyone. Please ALWAYS tell anyone you care about how much you love them because YOU WILL NEVER KNOW when they can slip away from you!

I cannot express how powerful this video is to me. I lost my dad to cancer 12 years ago and remember speaking the title of this spot to him as he was dying of cancer in his hospital bed. He was my hero and my best friend. I wanted him to know it was OK and "You Can Let Go." Thank you for making such a wonderful video with such a touching message.

Thanks for sending me the DVD of the TV Spots. I could listen to it over and over again. The message is great. I will always know that one day I will let go.

Love your TV spots. We need more air time for these types of spots. Great job!

Wow, reality! Don't waste a moment. I lost my father in 2007. Still feel that same feeling at his bedside the night before he past. Just like in the video.

What a great thing for some unselfish person to do; all these ads.
Posted 7 months ago by Robert T from Green Cove Springs, FL

Wow! Another tear-jerker for us daddies who treasure our little girls. To paraphrase Richard Paul Evans in "The Christmas Box"-- This is what it is like to be a parent; To look at my little girl and die a little inside each day. Every year my princesses (11 & 3) are growing up and it's tough to let go. Thanks for the reminder that one day, they are going to have to let go as well and it won't be any easier on them.

This is so right on with the heart I have for my little girl. To hold on to her while she's learning to fly and then loving her enough to let go when she spreads her wings. Beautiful song, Crystal. Your dad must be awesome.

I lost my grandmother to cancer a year ago. This really hit home. Thanks.

My Dad passed away last November at the age of 64. I wasnt ready to let go. I miss him so much and that video really touched my heart.

This is really sweat. I don't know how I'm going to take it when my dad dies. This brought tears to my eyes.
Posted 10 months ago by Noris I. from FL

Right now as I'm writing this the tears are flowing. I've never been moved so greatly by such an ad. It was so heart wrenching. I lost my dad nine years ago and I was with him when he gave up the ghost. Seeing that little girl sharing such a precious time with her dad was so endearing. You really melted my heart with that beautiful piece. Thanks so much.

Hey Crystal, you have a beautiful voice. I love you're songs. I am 10 years old.
Posted 10 months ago by Aleigha Ricardi from Killeen, TX

Thank you for some beautiful moments on TV. My husband always says, "don't that make you feel good" when we see one. To bad the whole world can't be like your ads.
Posted 10 months ago by Rose L. from Illinois

I'm crying right now. This is such an emotional ad. Its simply amazing!
Posted 10 months ago by Marissa B. from St. Louis, MO

Losing my father (being his spoiled little girl) was exactly the way this worked out on your beautiful heartwrenching commercial. We even had to tell him it was okay to let go. I have NEVER seen a more beautiful and touching commercial. You have outdone every commercial there ever was, or ever will be. Simply beautiful!

Is there a way I can get a CD containing the TV spots? would like to share with colleagues as downloading is pretty difficult with our network in Nigeria.
Posted 11 months ago by Steve Adegbola from Nigeria

I saw this TV spot on CNN and it ministered to my spirit. I have two beautiful daughters that I love and now I know I will have to let go one day. I would like to have this audio(mp3) if possible and would also love to be a member of this values for The Foundation for a Better Life.

I believe Crystal Shawanda sings "You Can Let Go."
Posted 11 months ago by Rachel P. from Colorado

Who Sings The "You Can Let Go Daddy"? It sounds like Kippi Brannon.
Posted 11 months ago by Ray T. from Tennessee

As sad as this message is, it is also very comforting. I let go, but will always have the everlasting love in my heart. Thank you.

Beautiful, and a timeless message. This is the one universal fate, and we must stand ready to meet it. Thanks so much!

I lost my Dad 7/13/09. The hardest thing I ever did was to tell him it was okay to let go; but I knew it was what he wanted and needed to hear. Thank you.

Wow, I lost my dad almost 5 years ago. Talk about memories. I think my dad held my hand that tightly and I know he holds my heart forever!
Posted about 1 year ago by Debbie C from Sterling Hieghts, MI

I cry every time I see this ad. My wonderful dad is still very much alive and I dread this day, yet can view it a bit differently now. Great ad.
Posted about 1 year ago by Ruth D. from Tennessee

This is your best spot yet. I can't tell you how I feel during and after this song and story that goes with it. Memories of my Mom when she passed and how we were all there when she let go. Great work and bless you all.
Posted about 1 year ago by Patti L. from Michigan

Oh this is such a touching song / commercial. I lost my sister and my mom in the last 3 yrs. Both were so special and important in my life. Letting go was the hardest thing I've ever had to do. But I'm grateful I was able to spend with them, their last hours of life and tell them how much I loved them and that it was OK for them to go.

This video was the best. My dad died 5 years ago of ALS (Lou Gehrig's Disease). I remember seeing him and telling him he could let go because we were all there.

What a beautiful, beautiful production! The music is touching and the loving looks between the father and daughter are priceless. You've captured love on film.

What an awe-inspiring video. It is amazing how such a short video can have such a moving affect on the heart and mind. The world needs more of this right now. Thanks for all you are doing!

Wow! I can barely see the keys to type. I cannot wait to use this in my leadership class on maintaining personal relationships and what love truly means. Inspiring!

Let go!
Anyone with children can relate to this video. The only things you have in life when it truly matters is your family and your children! Beautiful thank you!
Posted about 1 year ago by Amy M. from Sandy, UT

My grandfather(my dad's dad) died on June 10th of this year, and this song makes me think of, instead of a little girl, my father's relationship with my grandfather. It reminds me of the love they shared, and how my dad told my grandfather that it was ok to let go and be with his wife (my grandmother), and that we'd all be ok. This ad gives me comfort in a time when me and my family need it most. Thank you so much.

My dad died the day after Father's Day. 5 months to the day after my mother died. He was laying in a hospital bed fighting to hang on when I told him to go be with me my mom. This song reminds me of him. I love it
Posted about 1 year ago by Tina M. from Ohio

Having lost my mother recently to cancer at too young an age, this TV spot really brought the tears flowing. I never told my mom it was OK for her to let go, but I know she needed to. I didn't want to let go. I just told her I loved her and those were our last words to each other.

What a powerful ad. I can't remember the last time I was so moved by a song and a video story. You are doing wonderful work.

This video gave me great comfort after 5 years of my father's passing. I was by my father's side when I told him he can let go. It brought back memories of the love we shared and have for each other.

You Can Let Go

In a heartwarming story capturing the life cycle of a daughter and her father we see shared moments remembered through Crystal Shawanda's ballad "You Can Let Go." The value of Everlasting Love is poignantly conveyed in an encouraging message for all ages.
