the lyric "i never knew" in this context is so devastatingly sincere... and how she cries it over and over again, almost wailing, is just heartbreaking.
She has written such wonderful and melodic and atmospheric music, it's fantastic. Her lyrics always very poetic, great beats, great melodies, great songwriter.
These are no regular lyrics, I mean, "Got me dressing in my Sunday best, Golden Spires of Light". This girl is so talented and has so many tunes she has not released or has issues with, I wish she would record them some are my very favourites.
This song has me crying now that I've read the lyrics. My best friend Carlos committed suicide 2 years ago. He was so beautiful and always so happy, he was the closest friend I ever had. His suicide was a shock and it still is, I don't understand it. I really love this song, thank you Grimes for making this. You sung what i couldn't find the words for.
I lost a friend the sameway, he talked to me a week before he did it and i asked about my dad killing himself , and i said i forgive him and it was everybody's right , i don't believe that now, but the guilt still haunts me , such a beautiful man with so much to give , R.I.P x x x i miss you and what could of been x x x bless up bigman
Thankyou for sharing ive lost two close friends two suicide and my father too suicide. Its something that leaves an indomitable hole in your life, i was crying all last week to this song, so beautiful and sincere. I will always love claire for giving me that gift xxx hope your feeling a bit better karin, just keep crying thats my advice xxx
"how did that moment pass me by" i really feel those words, my best friend committed suicide a month ago i miss him so much its like the song was made for him
As time goes by, this song more and more makes me think of a female friend of mine that died, about 2 months ago. She was a nice person, dying in her late 20's. i miss her and hanging out with her at work and outside work. The lyrics are meaningful.
I listen to this every time I am sad. My brother's name was David and his girlfriend committed suicide after his death. I wish Grimes would officially make and release this song at some point, it means a lot to me.
@@snailsbo4170 tbh she might not even want to share it with people due to personal reasons too. she doesn't have to release something so personal to her.
hands down one of the best grimes songs imo... still waiting for an official release/ studio version of she’s down (but ofc I also respect her decision not to do it)
These are the right lyrics btw [Verse 1] Thinking up stories in my mind to relax, every single night There are no responsibilities there, everything's alright [Pre-Chorus] Every time I'm down, I dream, I dream of you It's not worth it, though, forgetting everything I know I need my old friend sitting next to me Time is everything, I'm thinking why do you have to be? [Chorus] Where does my heart go when you die How did that moment pass me by, oh How can you look so good and feel the way you do I never knew Oh, I never knew, oh [Verse 2] Got me dressin' in my Sunday-best; golden spires of light Hours pass like they are minutes or less, everything is alright [Pre-Chorus] Every time I'm down, I dream, I dream of you It's not worth it, though, forgetting everything I know (Was it worth it, though, leaving everything you know?) I need my friend is sitting next to me You were everything, I'll help you, why do you have to be? [Chorus] Where does my heart go when you die How did that moment pass me by, oh How can you look so good and feel the way you do I never knew Oh, I never knew [Chorus] Where does my heart go when you die How did that moment pass me by, oh How can you look so good and feel the way you do I never knew Oh, I never knew I never knew
the heart as a manefestation of love between two humans exists in self and causes such beautiful feelings ,in death such love is split ,this realization can cause a broken heart
eric bryant how was your journey with ayahuasca?? Hope you see this!- Im an emerging artist whom also struggles with bipolar.... over the past few years I’ve realized the healing properties of mindfulness and altered stated of consciousness..... I hope you can reach out to me, I’m looking to get in touch with others like-minded people...
He has transmuted to spirit, I hear the words 'Tao king', once you see as many as I have seen exit, you will know they always with us, We stand alone in body but we walk with many in s p i r i t💜🙏
pretty sure new album is on its way! so excited! also, becoming more and more convinced that C/Grimes is Frida Kahlo reincarnated or something like that.
I lost my boyfriend to suicide in 1999 and when I hear this song I think of him for some reason. It is a beautiful song and it brings me peace. I hope you care at all about your audience Grimes . Thank you form grimes og
Yeah when I listened to this song I was wondering what these lyrics were mnt for and then my friend sucided and I guess she took our memories with her...I hope she's in a better place...I can cry to this song and think about her....yeah thanks grimes for this wonderful song..and I bet u didn't know anything...❤❤❤
Wierd, love "DAVID" by GRIMES, especially this version. I bought the BBC "IN THE FLESH" DVD and just received it, watched an episode this morning and recognized the image in the graveyard. Subliminal or what, LOL!.
Like is see thru other eyes in fights some times...like when my ribs got cracked.....chased the guy after...but the spritits in the room and what's fucking rape.....
I think Grimes is my grandma - no evidence only Suspicious resemblence to aaaa R... winning streak - maybe not with choreography but at least she tried - thx for watching - not listening oh duuude

You never know it's a cry silent suicide is the ones tragically who go all the way
A lack of spiritual understanding is always a lack of cosmic friendship.

Ikr.. this song sounded so happy and then i read the lyrics maybe thats the irony of it, or intended... rip
"how did that moment pass me by"
i really feel those words, my best friend committed suicide a month ago i miss him so much its like the song was made for him
this song made me cry and i never cry . Cried like a little bitch and it was amazing
were crying together
It's not bitches who cry, but those who don't!
Grimes Halfaxa Album helped me through a bereavement. I think it must be her voice of an dark angel! I love this song.
No. She isn't a "dark angel"!
As time goes by, this song more and more makes me think of a female friend of mine that died, about 2 months ago. She was a nice person, dying in her late 20's. i miss her and hanging out with her at work and outside work. The lyrics are meaningful.
that sucks man
eric bryant is this real? Please share your empathy... some of us got that heart
This song will always make conveying feelings of mourning easier. At least for a moment.
I listen to this every time I am sad. My brother's name was David and his girlfriend committed suicide after his death. I wish Grimes would officially make and release this song at some point, it means a lot to me.
I wish you the best my mate condoglianze❤️❤️
Tragic..
Grimes had so many so good af unreleased songs :((((
Heartbeats and rasik and this one. Also “Unknown” and a few others that she should’ve released. Idk man this one makes me emotional and heartbeats
How can you look so good and feel the way you do?
I never knew
This is so beautiful and sad
i know everyone including me wants a studio version, but she’s not gonna profit off of her friend’s death.
perhaps she can donate all the money she makes from this song to a suicide prevention/awareness organization
@@snailsbo4170 tbh she might not even want to share it with people due to personal reasons too. she doesn't have to release something so personal to her.
Delete is also about her friend dying from a heroin overdose and that is a Beautiful 💜 Sad video
May our dead friends find their ways through the magnificient astral-sphere! t
Kinda understand why she never released this based on knowing what it is about but it is so beautiful, amazing as always grimes
This is one of the most beautiful songs ever. I really wish it had been released.
Where does my heart go when you die....
Hey, hun!!! Just saw you in the comment section and I had to say "Hi!" lol This track is so beautiful
With the one's you love....
axel usul playing it now again because of you 💕
I was gonna tag you in this lmao!
@@GilbertStone hey!! Hope all is well :)
hands down one of the best grimes songs imo... still waiting for an official release/ studio version of she’s down (but ofc I also respect her decision not to do it)
I know, this song has me crying too! Really awesome melody, but the words are such a sad but lovely touch…
I love this photo, the way the guy is casually sitting on one of the graves... Pretty cool.
It does fit this song pretty good.
feb 2021 and still can’t get over this song
@grimes this rendition is beautiful enough. You can't let a good thing rot in your hands.
I love Grimes
Where are you Claire?
These are the right lyrics btw
[Verse 1]
Thinking up stories in my mind to relax, every single night
There are no responsibilities there, everything's alright
[Pre-Chorus]
Every time I'm down, I dream, I dream of you
It's not worth it, though, forgetting everything I know
I need my old friend sitting next to me
Time is everything, I'm thinking why do you have to be?
[Chorus]
Where does my heart go when you die
How did that moment pass me by, oh
How can you look so good and feel the way you do
I never knew
Oh, I never knew, oh
[Verse 2]
Got me dressin' in my Sunday-best; golden spires of light
Hours pass like they are minutes or less, everything is alright
[Pre-Chorus]
Every time I'm down, I dream, I dream of you
It's not worth it, though, forgetting everything I know
(Was it worth it, though, leaving everything you know?)
I need my friend is sitting next to me
You were everything, I'll help you, why do you have to be?
[Chorus]
Where does my heart go when you die
How did that moment pass me by, oh
How can you look so good and feel the way you do
I never knew
Oh, I never knew
[Chorus]
Where does my heart go when you die
How did that moment pass me by, oh
How can you look so good and feel the way you do
I never knew
Oh, I never knew
I never knew
❤️ her cute Lil voice tho 😍
This song is to me beyond beautiful ❤️
made me cry :(
2:12 sounds like "you were my everything...". I can't make out the rest of the line. So sad, but lovely song.
the heart as a manefestation of love between two humans exists in self and causes such beautiful feelings ,in death such love is split ,this realization can cause a broken heart
A whole mood ✨
Been fighting bipolar since I was 12 - that's like 13 years now and this song makes it that little bit easier ❤️❤️
your not alone over 10yrs for me
eric bryant hope you are still fighting the good fight! It doesn't get any easier but every day we stay alive we get stronger!

Hope you see this!- Im an emerging artist whom also struggles with bipolar.... over the past few years I’ve realized the healing properties of mindfulness and altered stated of consciousness..... I hope you can reach out to me, I’m looking to get in touch with others like-minded people...
Here is another person that struggles with bipolar and loves this song.🥲🙂
I need this and fka twigs song yes yes yes to have an official release
I've had Grimes in my ear and 💜 for over 6 years ...it is my language
this song ;-;
I would like to do a psychological analysis of the people disliking this song and find out what creates people like that.
R.i.p Stewart R.i.p Anthony R.i.p Jenny , allways loved, never forgot 🖤🖤🤍🤍
He has transmuted to spirit, I hear the words 'Tao king', once you see as many as I have seen exit, you will know they always with us, We stand alone in body but we walk with many in s p i r i t💜🙏

I need the studio version but at the same time there Is something about only have a live version.
I'm glad it's unreleased. It's a secret song for her deceased friends and I can relate, I think of my uncle every time I hear it

Wierd, love "DAVID" by GRIMES, especially this version. I bought the BBC "IN THE FLESH" DVD and just received it, watched an episode this morning and recognized the image in the graveyard. Subliminal or what, LOL!.
Best show in the world.
In the Flesh eh? This song always reminded me of my boyfriend all through highschool David Church... is it a church graveyard?
@@Ari-zx3fi Yeah, you should watch In the Flesh, BBC drama it may be on line BBC web site as a box set. It is very good.

Harrison Fitzpatrick Limpert
Amazing video and version of David, though I'm not sure the lyrics are correct.
😍😍😍😍💋💋
I think this is the fetus version of realiti
🙈🦋🔪🐞
:(
I think Grimes is my grandma - no evidence only Suspicious resemblence to aaaa R... winning streak - maybe not with choreography but at least she tried - thx for watching - not listening oh duuude
I personally think the lyrics written here are incorrect.
what's it all about ? xxx.
David fraser Scott a friends suicide.
The Mushroom Maiden yes she does! She is my biggest musical inspiration :)
The Mushroom Maiden I’ve also battled suicide myself - hearing songs like this make me realize you never know what you mean to someone.
These lyrics are not correct
But this song is released. We are listening to it right now and its still effecting our souls and life. And that's what its really about. So beautiful
