Despite randomly saying "Baz Lurhmann" like a vocal tic, I have no idea who he is. I've looked it up multiple times.

Guy drops a mean quote tho.

It's hard to know who exactly to attribute the quote to, but it's based on this, song? Speech? Something. If you haven't heard it before, I highly, highly recommend giving it a listen, especially if you are younger. It's sonething I think everyone deserves to hear before they make their way in the world, and still offers good advice if you're already in it but feeling lost.

"Everybody's Free (To Wear Sunscreen)" is a 1999 spoken-word hit by Australian filmmaker Baz Luhrmann, featuring Lee Perry reciting life advice over a remixed track. Based on a 1997 Chicago Tribune column by Mary Schmich, the song offers nostalgic, philosophical advice on life, aging, and happiness, famously advising to always wear sunscreen.
