LYRICS
"I'm walking with Sophie tonight
She lives in the air that I breathe
I can't get it out of my mind
how you were left to bleed
Was it how you dressed
or how you act
I can't believe
how they could act so violently
without regret
well, we will not forget
We are the others
we are the cast-outs
we're the outsiders
but you can't hide us
we are the others
black-eyed and battered
you're not out there on your own
If you feel mistreated
torn and cheated
you are not alone
we are the others
As simple as air in your lungs
as simple as words on your lips
And no one should take that away
no one should argue this
Now with our heads up high
we'll carry on
and carry out
that we won't let them get us down
or wear us out
'cause we are not alone
We are the others
we are the cast-outs
we're the outsiders
but you can't hide us
we are the others
we are the cast-outs
you're not out there on your own
If you feel mistreated
torn and cheated
you are not alone
we are the others
Normal is not the norm
It's just a uniform
(we are the others)
Forget about the norm
(we're the outsiders)
Take off your uniform
(we are the others)
We are all beautiful
We are the others"

I think it's worth mentioning that Sophie Lancaster stood in front of her boyfriend and took most of the beating, so her boyfriend survived. Now she lives on in in this beautiful song drawing attention to things like this. If you ask me, that's worth a seat in Valhalla. Her death certainly wasn't in vain. I usually only say that about particularly accomplished war veterans. Huge respect to Lancaster, huge respect to this band.
What happened
@@filmzen281 She got beat to death, basically just for being goth
Sophie and her boyfriend Rob were targeted by teens for their looks. Rob was the first to be attacked by all five boys. To the point he was badly bleeding and unconscious Sophie managed to get in between. She cradled him on her lap screaming out to witnesses for help. Then two of the boys Ryan Herbert and Brendan Harris turned on her. She was repeatedly kicked in the head and body. She also had her face stamped and jumped on multiple times. When they were done they fled leaving Sophie and Rob on the floor unresponsive and bleeding. Witnesses soon found them and called for ambulances. When the paramedics did arrive they at first couldn’t tell who was the male and who was the female. Because of the amount of bleeding swelling and bruising on their faces. They were sent to hospital in deep comas and placed on life support. Fortunately Robert showed signs of improvement and eventually woke up. But Sophie’s injuries were far to severe she was brain damaged. So as a result her life support machine was turned off and she died.
That's horrible😮😢
I am 70 and don't conform, I am not the norm. At the time of Spohies' death my son was a goth, they tried to bully him too. Bright Blessings to Sophie's family.
RIP sophie lancaster never forgotten and always remembered this song serves your memory justice
I think of her every time I listen to this song. Her memory lives on forever
I agree it does
Nobody is alone. There is always someone who loves you.
That is the point of the song.
This is still one of the most powerful songs that is completely and 100% inclusive. Black, White, Nerd, Outcast, Goth..... doesn't matter. We are all one.
When are we ALL going to get past the judgement? And before you think that you don't judge anyone.... when was the last time you used the name Karen in a joke?
When was the last time you sneered at someone wearing a Trump hat? When was the last time you looked down on someone wearing a Biden/Kamala shirt?
We are all human, we all make mistakes. We should never be defined by our mistakes. We also all grow.....
You are so correct. Your comment caused me to reevaluate my thoughts and I'm wiping away tears right now. Thank you kindly
American politics have put us on the cusp of a civil war. It is coming, in some form or another. But as far as wearing a Trump hat, I put that in the same category as wearing a swastika armband.
They are the enemy. Always.
@@jamesbuchanan4414 you missed the point entirely...
Get real, bimbo! 😂 It's a song! The world is full of judgment and prejudice...you know why? Because it's an evolutionary instinct to discriminate and to form clear group identity. You can't treat the world world as your friends, my little angel 😇😂😂😂
The most three hugging hippie, discriminates as well!
I think that's a good bit too generalizing. Yes, we all are human and make mistakes and (tend to) grow. But _in order to grow,_ we need to know that we made a mistake. We very rarely notice on our own, we need others to point those mistakes out in some way or another. Can we all be more kind in how we point those mistakes out? Yeah, definitely. But we must not stop judging, or we'll lose our ability as a group/society/species to _learn_ from our mistakes and grow.
Rest in Peace Sylvia Lancaster (Sophie's mum) who put every ounce of her time and energy in getting some justice for her daughter and making sure we never forget her name through The Sophie Lancaster foundation
Oh this breaks my heart to hear! May she rip beautiful woman
She's die too?????????? Someone explain me please
Oh no! Just watch all the documentaries on Sophie. This is tragic . 😥
What a great song, I love it! I put it into my "Shellshocked Radio - Recommendations" List: ua-cam.com/video/Ib1Fiy2eNZw/v-deo.html Very well done!
@@freyatilly Idk if this song deserved to be in the HD version of DB Budokai AF but who cares??? This might be inspirational in a fanmade alternate timeline of Dragon Ball that has a shitload of despair and darkness
About 7 1/2 years later and this song still gives me goosebumps. This was the first Delain song I ever heard (while watching this video) and I've been a fan ever since. I saw them open up for Nightwish a few years ago and they were fantastic.
They were the opening show when I went for a Nightwish concert. They did a great job. My favorite part is when Tony Kakko came out on stage brushing his teeth.
OMG I've just discovered them. So amazing! Up there with nightwish, within temptation and lacuna coil ❤️❤️❤️❤️
@@DavidsonMott were Sonata Arctica there too? I remember seeing delain support them at a show once
The version of last drop falls with Charlotte on vocals is great
@@Kanbei11 Yes, indeed they were there as well. Delain started first followed by Sonata Arctica then Nightwish.
@@DavidsonMott I saw right before the end of Delain and begin of pandemic a full show of them. The first time and it was even the last chance. I had a lucky timing :)
Hello from 2024. May this song forever be immortalised ❤️
1:58 gets me every time. RIP Sophie and as always kudos to Delain for keeping her memory alive.
+Mark McKeown This song gives me chills even today Respect to them for writing this song.
I know what you mean, I was 17 when Sophie's murder happened, it still saddens and angers me that some are so narrow minded and intolerant as much now as it did then
I know what you mean, I mean this song struck me so much I got the line "Normal is not the norm, it's just a uniform" as a tattoo as a constant reminder of why we shouldn't let what others say/think define us
Awesome comment, Mark. Thank you.
Zankku Zann, dude, hate and intolerance is what got us here. We don't need to destroy anything. Rise above and improve your surroundings. It doesn't make a difference if they kill us or we kill them. Change comes from breaking the cycle.
Sophie Lancaster. Damn. It's been 12 years and I'm still angry and sad about her murder. I hope I always will be angry with people discriminated and victimised just because they differ from conventional social norms. Love that Delain played tribute to her here.
11 years ago today.
We miss you Sophie, and we won't forget.
Rest in Peace...
Always think that this is a beautiful tribute to Sophie Lancaster. Touch of class from an underrated band. Thinking of Sophie today, it may be 12 years since your brutal and cruel death, but you're still on people's minds.
\m/b Rock on in the great beyond, Sophie. And thanks to Delain for the beautiful tribute. d\m/
I've said this many times before. But it is true. Hatred to others is bad. But we wouldn't hate upon others if we would just ask what other people feel like. These days if we don't fit into a certain area of other peoples perspective on life then they hate us. This is what was the main reason of why Sophie is gone. She and her boyfriend didn't fit into someone's liking and thus were attacked, but Sophie made a powerful sacrifice, she protected the one she loved at the cost of her own life. Thus is why she is my hero. This is what I say after I tell others of her and her story. "I am Kiba Spirit Walker, I am autistic and ADHD, I am Sophie, and I am proud of who I am no matter what anyone thinks or says about me."
I just looked up Sophie Lancaster (the woman this song is dedicated to and about). OMG - I never knew the story. I commend Delain and Charlotte for being so passionate about it. What happened to Sophie was a tragedy. :( I have HUGE respect for Delain. All their songs are so relevant. Their lyrics always tell a story. I LOVE this band.
Charlotte read about this case in an article a few years after the incident. She wrote the song but did not want to release it without consent of her parents so she contacted the Sophie Lancaster foundation. It is pure luck that the person who answered the call was a huge Delain fan who had just been to one of their UK concerts a couple of days earlier. Her parents are in the clip holding up photo in the first part of the clip.
This band is SO underrated...
+EvanesEmperor Agreed.
Half-Blind Asian Did you get to meet them by chance?
Half-Blind Asian
That's weird. They usually come out and meet the fans after the show. I'm actually fortunate enough to know them personally.
+Half-Blind Asian Same here. I saw them about two weeks ago in Colorado Springs. Unfortunately I live in North Platte, NE...so with a 5 hour drive in front of me I had to leave before the end.
Sadly, that is so true.
It felt like a dagger going through my heart after I heard about Sophie's death a few years ago. I will never forget about her bravery.
Rest In Peace, an angel too soon.
I'm a grown 51 yr old man W 4 kids, 280 lbs, and I cry every time I hear this song. We'll always love you Sophie. You and every individual like you are in air that I breathe. Thank you Delain! Can't wait to see you here in KC. I will be a mess when you perform this song!
+Johnny Bender I came really close to crying when I heard this song live when they were in Michigan. Oh hell I came close to crying during all there songs. There songs are the story book of my life. Love the hell out of Delain. I can listen to ever song of there's and never pass one up.
+Epica124 I couldn't agree more! Lovely band
I had heard the song before, but never paid attention to the lyrics and never realised before what it was about.
I now watched this video for the first time and I can't strop watching it again and again. The moment that guy holds up that "Asperger" sign I burst in tears. Seeing that sign associated with Charlotte singing "you are not alone" means the world to me.
I just had the worst day at work and I felt so alone. No one knows I've got Asperger's, what's the point telling them? They don't even know what it actually means. They'll still think I'm lazy, too sensitive, too weak and incompetent. I've heard a colleague use the word "autistic" as an insult before... I know in what sort of place I am.
Thank you Delain. And thank you the Sophie Lancaster Foundation
LancelotGraal sorry for what you're going through. Keep strong my friend ❤️ and seek some help from those around you. Friends, family, therapists,... you
Yes!
I hope you're in a better work environment now. You shouldn't have to hide yourself (shouldn't have to emphasise it either, if you don't want to, of course!). I hope you have found people to respect who you are. xx
@@Rietu Hi! Thanks so much for your support! I am indeed in a much better work environment nowadays! I'm also learning to ignore and avoid close-minded people who won't accept my difference :) I feel much better these days! I know I'm not alone
I find it funny that this song about being comfortable being not-the-norm is drawing fire for being not-normal-metal.
I don't care about the style, I love this song. It resonates so strongly.
I teach art with a lot of the "others" kids! I watch as jocks, admin,parents,and society mistreats them! We even have bullying assembles, but nothing is ever done! This song sings to that danger when its carried to its extreme! I LOVE THIS SONG! Geddy Lee would be proud
I cry every time. RIP Sophie.
For me as high sensitive and possibly Asperger, feeling different all the time, this song and video are really special. When I feel like an outsider, sad or someone told me I'm strange, it really helps me to listen to this song and watch the video. It makes me realise I'm not the only "different" in the world, and I don't have to feel sad because of it. Everyone is different, being the same is just a uniform. I'm not alone...
We will never forget. RIP Sophie.
#WeAreTheOthers
Una gran canción, todo un himno al respeto y la integración, impresionante.
Ah, y Sharon Den Adel en 1:07
Robert Westerholt as well
1:50 George Oosthoek, who also many times sing with Sharon (eg. "Other half of me" and "Candles").
Cual integracion si todos son blancos europeos
In this world, if you are different or act different you are judged by others. It's not fair to hide or pretend to be someone else. Tonight I am walking with Sophie!
Ok
I heard about Sophie just today. I was too small when it happened. And now, when i hear this song i remember her. Every time Charlotte smiles, it makes me smile. I hope it makes Sophie smile too. She may be looking down to us and smiling.
I read About Sophie after hearing this song, because i didn’t know about her. I cried so hard after Reading what happend to her r.i.p. Beautyful sophie. I myself get bullied with My scars and people never understand me because of My 13 mental disorders. When i hear this song it feels like i’m not the only one thank you so much
So I do I when I hear this song it bother me... Sadness..
As a parent of two teens...such a great message.
R.I.P Sophie.🌹🖤💜💐
Rest in peace Sylvia we’ll never forget you hope you are reunited with your baby girl once again💜
This song really spoke to me. I'm 24 and I suffer from chronic pain and I'm now so bad that I require a walker when shopping. I've also suffered from mental illness for most of my life stemming from child abuse. We Are The Others is so uplifing regardless of what mood I'm in.
I love this song.
I wish this song existed when I was younger and growing up.
It is so uplifting.
I have only known about Delain for about six years, but I love their music, and listen to it regularly.
This touches my soul. WE WON"T FORGET!
Beautiful song!! What happened to Sophie was despicable and really opens your eyes to how horrible some people in this world are. But this song reminds us that for every horrible person there are more good people. Brave of her mother to go to schools and do assemblies, educating kids about what happened and I was sad to not see that assembly, but my brother saw it. My whole family have been victims of bullying, my mum most of all, and to see someone making a song in memory of someone who died as a result of bullying of the worst kind, it really restores your faith in humanity. RIP Sophie Lancaster xx
I had suffered from depression since middle school, and I'm now 32. I have LIVED with it, not suffered from it, since shortly after my now 13yr old daughter - the most important thing in this universe to me - was born. She suffers from it, and is beginning to learn to live with it using the same methods she's been seeing me use her whole life. Seeing her dance across the house and sing this song out loud with joy and her heart in her beautiful voice makes my own heart sing just as fully. Thank-you, Delain, though I know those two words aren't enough.
I always play this at least four times. I don't think I'll ever tire of it.
Beautiful song. Too often people are discriminated against the most stupid reason. 've Seen it happen. I've been morbidly obese, weighing on my 27th 136kg and was therefore often called names in the street. People look too much at the latest. Now I've got a normal weight after reducing my stomach (gastric sleeve) surgery 1,5 years ago, I'm suddenly be treated normally by strangers when I walk on the street. It's not supposed to go. Everyone should just respect each other no matter what people look like.
Here again to pay my respect to Sophie and to never let this horrible tragedy be forgotten. #weirdomosherfreak #iamsophie #stampoutprejudicehateintolerenceeverywhere
Honestly I've heard very little about Sophie Lancaster for some time, but discovering this song only today makes me happy... RIP Sophie, no matter what people thought and still do, you were a beautiful soul.
The ballad version is so much better, it deserves it's own official video.
Is it just me that thinks that the bass player has unlimited levels of badass?
This genuinely brought tears to my eyes
I'm so doing something like this with Legends of the Fallen
Amazing song! How could I miss this before, wow! RIP Sophie.
Delain is my favorite band, they are so underrated it makes me sad as i doubt ill ever get to see them live.
Every time I hear of this song, still feel touched.
Not just becoz the music, is it based on what happened.
We are all Sophie.
Don't know how I landed here. But this is so awesome, why haven't I found this earlier?
I'm here after watching the "murdered for being different" movie. Heartbreaking...
This song is incredible, and having heard it live recently only makes it better. Delain rules, and I'm so glad they got to tour in the US!
To those of you out there getting bullied, stay strong. You'll grow from it. Don't take it out on yourself. Challenges in life are how you grow stronger. You just need to believe that instead of letting it tear you down. Think if every insult as a hammer pounding on a hot chunk of metal. May not look like much but in the future you'll have a pretty sick sword or battle axe.
Can't get enough of this one; loved seeing Sharon & Robert from WT♥ Excellent, Meaningful♥♥♥♥♥
saw them opening for sonata arctica in Montreal last september..they are awesome live and very generous with the fans...must see
Love this song. When I heard this for the first time I was breakdown. Because reminded me that I was bullied because I was more quiet, and because of it I am still struggling with low confidence. This song helped me a lot accepting myself and not to hate myself. The singer, Charlotte Wessles is also beautiful :) :)
thank you delain, i love this song.I am an asperger myself
1:02 : are that Sharon and Robert from Within Temptation?
+Andreas Röger Yep
That they are.
First time seeing the video, and I saw the same exact thing... Low and behold, you and other people caught it and said something first. :)
no :)
+Menace Of Verinity yep they are
This is one of the most beautiful and meaningful songs I have ever come across. It perfectly describes the isolation one has in a 'group' that may different from the norm.....
Since early youth, I've always been an outcast. This song pulls very personal heart strings.
The tragedy this song was written about is devastating, but also not surprising. It is often the "normally" dressed that engage in criminally psychotic behavior.
1:03 OMG ROBERT AND SHARON!!!!!!!!!!
Рад, что из Нидерландов выходят таланты. Отличная группа.
Жаль в Латвию не приезжают.
Today is the 6th year anniversary death of Sophie. Its so upsetting when time goes so fast cos the pain of a life cut short is so not a scar that never heals. Thoughts go to the victims of any one who has ever lost anyone too short when they didn't need to. This song is good to remind us all to stand strong and not to give into pear pressure when there are dark times were we feel we need to!
Просто приятно слышать ❤❤❤
JUST FINDING OUT HOW SAD A STORY THIS IS - AND I THINK OF HOW PEEPS ARE WALKING AROUND HERE IN THE STATES - ONE FOOT FORWARD TWO BACK - SAD ... BUT THERE IS LIGHT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL - CAUSE YOU CAN NOT STOP CHANGE .
what you mean? can not stop change? the great reset? sustainable goals? or the 5th dimension?
aquarius new vibrations new energy coming together idk
--- what about just a miracle for the world for me that would b so very welcome
This song is so empowering.
The people who treated Sophie like garbage really had great power but never used it responsibly. The whole world will still love you 3000 Sophie
I could've used this song back in middle school. Beautiful still. Love Delain, saw then twice already. And I totally have a crush on Charlotte Wessels.
Love this song. It is special to me cause I am one of the others. Diagnosed with high functioning Autsim at age 6 along with Bipolar Disorder I have few friends and many enemies. This song may be about
We're all walking with Sophie.
I love the standins, at 1:05 you can see Within Temptation. Great artist, great song, great video.
just seen it right now, wanted to comment it too XD
dankjewel delain. 1 van de beste nederlandse bands ♥
1:02 Sharon and Robert Westerholt,
1:50 George Oosthoek, who also many times sing with Sharon (eg. "Other half of me" and "Candles").
Wonderful song! Wonderful Band! I get choked up every time I hear it. Bless Sophie!
I wish you were around when I was in grade school. Being selected for torment based on race was popular then as it is now. Except that it was generally accept among the adults and school teachers. We were without a voice.
RIP Sophie 😢😭
There's the sensible part of me bowing her head in honour of Sophie.
And then there's the part of me that's yelling at the sensible part. She's saying "IMAGINE ALL THE PAPER CUTS THEY HAD BEFORE THE VIDEO WAS FINALISED. IMAGINE HOW MUCH PAIN THEY PUT THEMSELVES THROUGH SO YOU COULD BOW YOUR HEAD IN MEMORY"
That part of me is the Camelot of my mind.
We are the others ♥ One more year Sophie ♥
Love to everyone
I love the message :) I hate that Sophie had to deal with that. As a goth it sucks that our guards have to be up all the time. But this song is just another piece of evidence that judgement and prejudice still exist in many forms so we have to do our best to protect our individuality :)
I still love this song in 2020!!! 😍😍❤❤👍👍
so happy they support Sabaton in 2015. hope they play this, and cant f*king wait
my prediction is will be headlining everywhere after next album. excellent band with amazing front female performing. Loved in USA
Was that Sharon and Robert from Within Temptation?
Yes, i think they are asked for the clip by Martijn Westerholt. Martijn is the brother of former bandmate Robert from Within Temtation and Martijn was years ago, band member of Within Temptation, but had to stop because he got mononucleosis. When he recovered, he started the band Delain.
AMO ESTA CANCIÓN!! es como un himno para mí, la tengo con tanto sentimiento y pasión en mi corazón, está tatuada en él
Thank you for mentioning disabilities as part of bullying. Most people ignore those folks. It was open season on those folks when I grew up. I'm a bit ADD so needless to say I had a fun childhood.
This is an amazing song, and I think the ballade version is even superior
1:02 is that Sharon Den Adel? Because she kinda looks like her.
Yes thats her. Delain is also from The Netherlands!
Pieter Post
Wow, there were lots of comments about this, I kinda feel stupid for not looking them before. Thank you :)
ZeroHBR Haha no problem! You dont have to feel stupid, there arent stupid questions ;). Glad i could help!
ZeroHBR Oh damn and that guy looks like Robert too
ZeroHBR I've seen this video like a thousand times, and I've only just realised that as well. :)
nice job!
I love them, I went to a Nightwish concert years ago and got the pleasant surprise of them opening for them. That night i discovered another great group
Edit: changed from to for, auto correct doesn't know what it's talking about half the time
This awesome music should be hitting 100,000,000 and more very soon!!! :D
Dutch glory all the way!
~Dutchies~
01:06 Sharon Den Adel XDD♥
R.I.P. Sylvia Lancaster, Sophie’s mother.Never be forgotten.
It's so great that a group of artists think about this subject, it's so rarely today, and a few person know that it's a very serious cause...
The case of Sophie should NEVER happened, but the society thinks different, and if you're not like every one, you're persecuted, ashamed, humiliated and so many bad things I don't want to remember...Lucky persons know how to defend themselves but others, not always, they need help, support and a very strong moral.
Let us doing all we want to do, the society can't forbid us to be ourself in any case in the world.
So, thank you Delain to do a song to talk about this, and I hope that the lyrics will make reflect the listeners and changed a few the (stupid) mentalities who the majority have.
i just saw "Sharon Den Adel" of "Within Temptation" at 01:05 ............ \m/
Yeah and Robert as well
And isn't that George Oosthoek, the grunter who has done work with for example Delain at 0:02
Martijn was a member of within temptation until some health reasons caused him to leave the band. I'm not surprised he asked Sharon and Robert to participate in the video.
***** sharon was also featured in no compliance by delian so they sem to work together from time to time
***** He wasn't only a member of within temptation, he's also the brother of Robert Westerholt, the guitarist of Within Temptation.
i like this song!and voice!and this music!
this song send a very important message
Today is Sophie's 35th birthday
EDIT 24/08/23: Today marks 16 years since Sophie's death. Rest in peace, I'm sorry you're not here now.
We are the others.
Sharon Den Adel at 1:07.
I feeling crap today, this has cheered me up, thanks Delain.
Just found out about Delain thanks to Pandora playing one of their songs on my Avantasia station, instant fan!
+CloudchaserShaconag same here, they played this song on my Emilie Autumn station and it just resonates so much.
Almost every day someone will ask me what my S.O.P.H.I.E. bracelet stands for, and when I tell them her story, they can't believe it happened. Awareness will help change things.
Goth Day, remembering her ❤️
sad but so good
