Lyrics:
There was a guy at my school when I was in high school
We'd ride side by side in the morning on our bicycles
Never even spoken or faced each other
But on the last hill we'd race each other
When we reached the racks we'd each go our own way
I wasn't in his classes, I didn't know his name
When we finally got to speak he just stared at his feet
And mumbled a sentence that ended with 'James'
I was young and caught in the crowd
I didn't know then what I know now
I was dumb, and I was proud
And I'm sorry
If I could go back do it again
I'd be someone you could call friend
Please, please believe that I'm sorry
I'm from Australia and we were shown this song in primary school for anti bullying not that it changed anything. Still one of my favorite songs.
Same lol I live in Australia and we did the same thing
Same victoria
sameee
90% of the views are from teachers showing this in class
So true
Hahah Yes our teacher showed us that in english class
Me today #Germany
True!
OMG yes 😂
all aussie kids remember our teachers showing us this song when bullying was becoming a more open topic
im just here because i have to watch this for a pdhpe assignment!
@@qwertyuiop8766 wth same mines today, what school do you go to if you don’t mind me asking?
OMG YES
lol what no??
My teacher just showed me on Wednesday
50% of the views: teachers showing this in class
25% of the views: people coming here to say they were shown this in class
25% of the views: me having this on loop
the secret 1% that had this play when they were little for so long that they came just to reminisce.
How about people who genuinely like the song?
Haaa.
So true
what they play this at schools??
I remembre it as a pop song from the radio that my sister always play
@@BananaBug all Aussie schools played this as an anti bullying thing
I remember my teacher showing us this 10 years ago in grade 5. Underrated singer and song.
Who else was shown this in school
Me, it was for Music then we had to watch it again for a Bully Presentation. I can see why but why 2 times in a row?
+Cara Mcloughlin ME
+Cara Mcloughlin holy fuck yes!!
+Cara Mcloughlin wrote a test over the stylistic devices in the song xD
***** same
Our health teacher showed us this earlier this year when we were studying bullying :)

I've been searching for this song for 15 years. I'm glad I finally found it.
Same here!
.. it was released 14 years ago?
This is one of those songs that really resonates whether you were the bully or the bullied.
I swear Australian singers do not get enough international attention. Kate Miller-Heidke, Matt Corby and Lisa Mitchell should all be heaps famous by now!
Ye
Well I thought it was Lilly Allen so you're right
The dislikes are just science teachers upset about how she didn’t wear her safety glasses in the lab💀
That’s the best comment ever
Bahaha
💀💀💀💀
The science teacher not yelling at her because she’s not wearing safety glasses
PPE am I right
I'm in highschool. There's a boy in my year level, who I don't have classes with. He doesn't have a lot of friends, he gets bullied a lot, and has a pretty rough life at home. I always say hi to him in the halls and talk to him when I see him, because I know what it's like to be hated by lots of people for no good reason. It's difficult to stand up to my friends when they call him creepy and weird behind his back, but I do try.
This song is really inspiring for me
Do what you can to make everyone feel special. HS sucks. People are just mean for no reason. It is not like that in college at all. I don't know why it's so different. But I hope he sees that you are a nice person. :)
Yeh keep standing up for him, everyone in highschool turn to such bitches argh i wish i could just fast forward my life until it gets good.
You're wonderful Alana :)
Gems St Thank you! :)
he must be so inspired when royalty says "HI" So what do you say to you friends ( bullies) when they call him weird, "HI" doesn't quite cut it Princess, ACTIONS speak louder than UA-cam QUOTES
Should be wearing protective glasses.
+Angel Mcfadden Not the first thing most people are going to note about this video but nevertheless a very valid point. Your attention to detail is commendable, well done!
you have good eyes, my friend.
She also shouldn't be dancing and singing in a experimental area (aka lab)
Safety isn't a joke

I remember 10 years ago I sung this song in primary school in Australia 🇦🇺 one of my strongest memories
who else almost cries when listening
I actually cry
The end is sad
@@mayonaizs8238 me 2
This song sounds so much sadder than it actually is
Almost 😢
I first heard this 15 years ago and never knew what it was really about, I was just vibing to it.
Now I have finally found this song, after having it in the back of my head for so long and it's still just as beautiful as it was. Deeper even, now that I know the meaning.
When I was in primary school (I'm in high school now) our school showed us this song. At the time we nomen saying it sucked but I only recently realised we just didn't understand it because we were too immature.
I'm in high school now and this song definitely affects how I look at the people who have few friends.
1 day I saw some kid getting pushed around by some known school bullies. I learn boxing, have been for 4 years, and I feel comfortable having a fight.
I saw the kid was trying to stand up for himself but coudnt so I helped out. I walked up said leave him alone, they started a fight, but it was quickly over after I badly hurt 1 of them.
I'm not friends with the kid I stood up for, but he, and pretty much everyone else looks at me differently now, and no one picks on that kid anymore.
The morale of the story is stand up for the little guy. People will realise your a good guy, or girl, for doing so.
1st paragraph: nomed , I mean joked
Matt Mushan You know you can edit the original by clicking on the (v) in the top right corner, right..?
+Matt Mushan your a kind guy sticking up for the fragile one good work mate wish people at my school we like that
Should learn hapkido
she looks like Luna Lovegood
yassss she does omg!!
Alexandra - yasss I was about to say that!!
Alexandra - yeah she dose
Where my HP fans at??
Alexandra - Ong she does lol
I've been looking for this fucking song for like 6 years can't believe I FOUND IT RIHHT AT THIS MOMENT ON A SATURDAY NIGHT AT 11:30 AT NIGHT EXACTLY OH MY GOD IM ACTUALLY HYSTERICAL
Check out her song ‘The Last Day On Earth’
And then look up her other songs: Make it last, Sarah, I’ll Change your mind, I’ll Ride This feeling, Words, Can’t shake it, The Devil wears a Suit, The tiger inside will eat the child, Facebook song, One thing I know. She has pretty more. :)

2:50 When you step on a piece of lego
truueeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
hahahahahaha
This song reminds me of my high school days.
If I could rewind back time, I would have done more to stand up for those who could not stand up for themselves.
Still listening in 2023! Brings back such nostalgia for me 😊
Being a friend to all walks of life... Makes a big difference in everybody's life.
I often cry whilst listening to this song. Because when I started high school I was caught in the crowd. I wanted to be cool. I was mean to people. I regret it so much. When I realized who I was becoming I stopped hanging out with that crowd. I started to be bullied by them. I spent my year being called fat, ugly, fish lips, an array of nasty names and being hit, pushed around, having things thrown at me, and hating myself. It’s led on to some horrible problems a few years later even after moving schools the words are always in my mind.
hi kid don't let it get to you been there and now over it there just miss under stood kids they will suffer later in life when they have kids who are bullied and then remember what they did carma comes round
You are not those awful words bastards say you are. You are much better than them because you realised what you were doing is wrong. you should be proud of yourself and not let those words get to you. love who you are
cop it flop
Just forget about these memories, like a bad dream
There is a lot of shit in life .....
get recked
my ex girlfriend showed me this song when we were together, she loved it so much she cried when she showed me. I can remember cuddling her and telling her its okay. Now we arent together and she's with someone else. This song came on the radio today and it made me cry. so much.
Keep your head up high king
Your girlfriend had bad music taste tbh
My class listened to this song today in class and i burst into tears!!!!!
This is beautiful. This is why you should always strive to be friend to anyone in need. We cannot sit by by and let someone slip through the cracks in society.
I WAS SHOWN THIS AT SCHOOL!
OMG anyone else
👇🏻
yessss
watching rn bc of school

This is the queen off the masked singer Australia 100%
Bro does this song make you cry
passed by you?
@@johnjackson2863 huh confused
@@MegwaMoana yes all the time
Only found out about this song because of Eurovision and I live in Brisbane wow what an amazing artist, even if she doesn’t win Eurovision she will be remembered forever
David Cheyne Brisbane Australia?
I live in Brisbane as well man in back in primary I would listen to this song cuz we had to sing it during primary
@David Cheyne I live in Brisbane too mate, but was shown this song in primary school
the tears are flowing
My great aunt used to always play this in her car. Some of my best memories were with her. Miss her. Can’t wait till Covid is over so I can see her and my other relatives again.
💚💚💚💚
Luv dis too

Much love mek
mum taught kate piano 5 doors down from school in the nineties. she was a year above me but i was mates with her little brother david . good memories .
OMGoodness, this made me cry..
Yes, I was one of the people who was shown this in school. Kate was on the masked singer recently just before I found this song again and she seems so young here, but then 11 years later, she anonymously sang as the queen. She's come really far; I'm proud of her :)
I was like James in high school. It's scary how much I can relate to this song. School was tough for me, but I've grown and forgiven the people who bullied me.
Sometimes we can get caught in the crowd ❤
now james is the hardest smartest most successful dude that was produced from that crowd..the bullys now work for him and do as he bids them..cuz even if james was socially awkward then he knew knowledge is power and he waited and gathered knowledge until he had enough to weld it as a sword to protect himself and subdue ememys...but james never forgot the feeling of cruelty and is now a fair and just man
For those that are in High School, hang in there. I was called skinny, pimple face, alien, weak. But you just have to ignore them and stick with friends who will uphold you. It gets better trust me :)
***** hang in there bud, you'll find the right friend at the right time :)
Mealea Rowlands It will also get better for the Starks ;)

Good on you mate, the worst thing to do is give up.
macmac mackoy guess what I was bullied my self so who cares what they say so your right !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Why 125 dislikes? She is a people, who say sorry. She is a role model for stop bullying. It too bad guys. She has my respect.
I agree❤️
+Jamareku I concur
she has my support to. I love this song so much
Her voice is fucking awful, that's why. The message is great, but her voice is Kate Bush level irritating.
i agree heavily but, grammar?
Look at all the butterflies in the music video🦋
her: singing a serious sad song about real life things that actually happen
Also her: smiling and swaying with the butterflies as if she's singing a happy song
There was a guy at my school when I was in high school
We'd ride side by side in the morning on our bicycles
Never even spoken or faced each other
But on the last hill we'd race each other
When we reached the racks we'd each go our own way
I wasn't in his classes, I didn't know his name
When we finally got to speak he just stared at his feet
And mumbled a sentence that ended with 'James'
I was young and caught in the crowd
I didn't know then what I know now
I was dumb, and I was proud
And I'm sorry
If I could go back do it again
I'd be someone you could call friend
Please please believe that I'm sorry
Well he was quite a big guy, kinda shy and quiet
When the kids called him weird he didn't try to deny it
Every lunchtime he'd spend walking by himself
Round the boundary of the grounds til he heard the bell
Well one day I found him, joined him on his walk
We were silent for a while until we started to talk
I told him my family were fighting in court
He said his step-dad and him always fought
We talked about music, he was into punk
Told me all the bands that I liked were junk
I said I'd never heard the songs the sex pistols sang
I laughed back at him and then the bell rang
I was young and caught in the crowd
I didn't know then what I know now
I was dumb, and I was proud
And I'm sorry
If I could go back do it again
I'd be someone you could call friend
Please please believe that I'm sorry
It was after school in the afternoon
The corridors were crowded as we came out of the rooms
Three guys I knew pushed him into the cement
Threw away his bag and said he had no friends
He yelled that he did and he looked around
Tried getting up but they pushed him on down
That's when he saw me, called out my name
And I turned my back, and just walked away
Yeah I turned my back, and just walked away
I was young and caught in the crowd
I didn't know then what I know now
I was dumb, and I was proud
And I'm sorry
If I could go back, do it again
I'd be someone you could call friend
Please please, believe that I'm sorry.
Ooh thanks now i can sing along
I hope James has heard this song
This tune really hits home. Thankyou Kate Miller Heidke. I was legit the same James she sings of however played a guitar around the school & now evolved into Jimmy like many. Whenever this song plays it may take on a life of its own in me. Interesting imagery. Tough, bold, character building, personal & melodic. Great job making your name known through drum media so that one day i may hear this complex gift. Its rare to hear acknowledgement in a song. Well made film clip direction. He is just one Jame
🦅
I heard this song over the speaker at work today and it opened the memory of listening to it in primary school (mind you, I have graduated high school now). I was a bit shook because I had completely forgotten its existence
This song, wow. I was a major asshole when I was little. Hell, I was one of the major bullies in my Junior High. This song brought everything back, the mistakes I made and now live by. Long live Kate Miller-Heidke!
So tell me, what is it that you did that suddenly made YOU a master of the universe
Chip's Challenge
The song is a first-person account by a passive observer towards bullying and the regret they experience later in life. In speaking with The Feed's Patrick Abboud about the song's origins Kate revealed that “I was never the bully but I was definitely bullied and I also saw other people being bullied, and didn't have the courage to step in and then later regretted it.”
🦧
My Principal showed this on Parade and as soon as I came home I started to listen to it, I am literally obsessed with this song
Makes me cry
A reminder to all you people out there that have been or are being bullied. Stand Up For Yourself. I know it may be easier said than done, but it really is true that people on pick those who they view as weak. Stand up for yourself, and they will forget about you.
I wasn't a pretty girl, I didn't know my father at the time, my mother did not care for me, I always had headlice, had a bowl cut, wore shoes with holes in them, stained shirts and much more. I was like the Kenny (Southpark) of my friends.
So I know if it weren't for the fact that I had a tribe of brothers, 9 to be exact, I too would have been bullied.
But this just goes to show that bullies are not tough at all.
I am in 5th grade and allready fell like I want to go crawl in a hole and die I get called fat,ugly,stupid,and some really bad cus words I feel so alone some times
Audra McNair That sucks! :( The people who call you those things are the ones with the problem. You're fine, sweetie. Take pride in not being one of them because they're all followers and you can be different and more interesting then them.
This is a reason I'm proud to be Australian
God lol same
God this was in Australia
This is shitty i was forced to watch this
my dad worked with his dad.
Almond.Milk.Is.Gross
Why cause people bully (jk I’m Aussie)
I wonder what happened to James
+Natalie Faulkner Died. Pretty badly. Ants, lots of them.
+Frankie Lake Hate it when that happens.
Kate Miller Heidke is James. She said she flipped the roles and decided to sing it from the opposite perspective because it made for a more compelling narative.
+Archavious woah mind blown
+Archavious I read it was a hyperthetical song about bullying. She went to an all girls school in Corinda. Dont quote me because its a cool as song...... she's an awesome chick. Love her music
I hope "James" saw this Video. Around 2013 i was able to visit a concert of KMH at Gold Coast..very cool Greetings from germany . Andy
One of our Nation's treasures, KMH.
I haven't heard this song since it came out, and ever since I have been looking for. And looking for it. And al I could remember of it, was 'I'm sorry' I found it!
Do you remember her song "The Last Day On Earth". If not check it out.
Same. The satisfaction can not be written in a comment.
I only heard this 2 days ago for the first time. it made me cry .. I hated being bullied. it affected me for a VERY long time. my best friend became my best friend cause she beat me up and I was still nice to her. she stuck up for me after that even though she was in the very popular crowd and I was the one that would sit with long hair around me like a 'shield' as I slumped in my chair trying not to be noticed. when I was 12 or 13 I started to 'come out of my shell' when we moved to the country
damn
this is so sad....... makes me still tear up, i used to listen to this years and years ago....
They way she said his name and the way she smiled as she spoke about their memories... It seemed like she loved him.... thats what it seems like to me
i know that she probably didnt, but the way she smiles, is the way girls smile at their crush....
This song brings me to tears sometimes.
I was bullied in primary school and high school, i am now in UNI and i have never felt happier. I stood up for myself because no one else did. Now i have friends who stand up for me behind my back and in front of me.
I can relate to this song and im so glad that someone finally wrote a song about this theme, and im glad it was Kate Miller-Heidke...
She didn't love him
Don't be stupid.
i only know this song because we r working on this song in english xD
Sparce TV what's your real mame
same here, what do you think of the meaning of this title?
Sparce TV Same! Because your looking for main idea and messages coz I'm doing the same!
Michael Something OMG SAME
I KING I woah Queensland?
She made the story about "James" up - he doesn't actually exist. She actually wrote this song because she was bullied herself. She wrote the song from the perspective of her own bullies
Really?
No she didn't
She's said in interviews that she was "James" and wrote this song about it.
Someone I know has met her and she said it was a true story
Jade Beasley Someone I know said " What does James say to you now"
13 years...I was only 7 years old when this came out, I adore this song so much😢
I sang this song In school choir in year 5 and it’s one of my biggest memories I love this song
Absolutely brilliant tune!!!! found this completely by accident too... Def one of the best I have picked up this year... !
I love this song! Her voice is sooooooo beautiful
I'm on a bit of a Kate Miller-Heidke binge at the moment and I remember first hearing this song in 2008. I'm blown away that it's been used in schools for anti-bullying education, what a legacy to have left with just one song! All of Kate's songs are so damn good!
This song is so beautiful I am literally crying tears of joy right now.
I can't listen to this or sing along with it without being moved to tears. It's one of the most powerful songs I've heard in a long long time.
Her voice and music are amazing. Glad I moved to Australia for the musical talent. Have all her albums. 😊
I was a bit of a bully at school until I realised the kids I was bullying were just like me so I stuck up for them. This song brings a tear to the eye because it reminds me of them.
Ill be playing this song to my kids as soon as they are old enough to understand the meaning. Bully or victim, it's such a beautiful message and song.
I am loving this song. At first you think it's about a love story but then it turns into something more tragic and bone chilling. It tells a meaningful story with a great melody and she has a beautiful voice
I've loved this song for ages and I personally think it's amazing and very inspirational.
Man...just brings me to tears
Loners never have it easy in school, and this song is appreciated, even if some deserved their ostracism.
love this song very inspirational and I can reflect on things while listening to this beautiful song
ur gay
I’ve had this song in the back of my mind for 11 years because I could never figure out the title of the song. Thankfully someone on r/tipofmytongue helped me find it.
What a unique talent this girl is!
Teacher made us listen to this little did they know everyone had volume boosters
yah kacoot
my fart stink
I can’t wait to go back to school and see somebody by them selves and sit with them.
This makes me cry every time I listen to it😭😭
I thought my teacher was the only one... Love ya Mr. Jones
I remember 11 years ago I was shown this in High School and I came back to this recently.
Such an important message, makes me cry when I think of Dolly Everett. I hope her bullies hear this song and feel some remorse for what they did
2016 and this song still hits me right where the heart is , always will love this song , i remember alot of stuff that happened growing up , Thanks.
this was one of the first songs i’d ever heard on youtube when i first started using it back in 2010-2011. I think it randomly popped up on my recommended feed and then I grew to love it :^(
I was 13 turning 14 at that time, now i’m 23 and i’ll be 24 in 6 months.
Memoriesssss
i love this song!!!!! better sing this on tour in sydney!!! looking forward to seeing you
Love this song so touching. But it took me 12 times to finally kind of understand lyrics :)
Must have had a good life
I love her voice.
love love awesome so true keep it up hun
I love this, I listen to it every day it is such an awesome song.
this song seriously needs more views what
Agreed, but remember its from an Australian Artist/singer/songwriter. So the chances of it getting heaps of views is very minimal. If only the people in the USA take notice.
cleversongokuh Fuck the USA why would we want them to hear our music.
jon3to5 Because 1. Australian music is great 2. The more views Aussie acts get the more money they get from the view count, Kate and Keir wrote this great number shouldn't they earn more money than some crappy singer from America that has a shitty song? 3. So more people can hear more great music and be interested in buying it, helps the aussie songwriters earn a good living 4. So the view count goes up, and again for that to happen the USA has to take notice. 5 So that the more music that is exposed the more there will be music for everyone, more better songs less people complaining about how today's music sucks because they keep hearing the same song or shitty music played on the radio over and over and over again.
No
You see, I am from Germany and I agree, this song needs much more attention. There is always a James and it needs courageous people standing up for the weak
This song is so amazing it bought tears to my eyes 😢😊
Great song Kate...luv the expression session...brilliant thanks
She made this video because she didnt realise when she was younger she thought it wouldnt hurt his feelings dont bully because you might not care about it then but you will look back when your older AND YOU CANT CHANGE IT luv u kate miller 😘❤
At school my friends are considered “one of the popular groups" and we let two boys who were being and had no friends sit with us and people stopped bullying them because every time someone would come over and bully them i would stand up for them
do you want a trophy?
Don't be rude it takes courage your just jealous
This song is so true I got shown this video in health when we were speaking about bullying and I was like this song is so true and it made me cry as well because I could relate to all of it and I live in Australia and that's why I got shown this video and I really like the Song because I can relate
Who else can relate
For those of us who have always been very disappointed that KATE BUSH only ever had that one TRULY GREAT song, be disappointed no more!!! ... Queenslander "KATE MILLER Kate Bush HEIDKE" has one WUTHERING HEIGHTS song after another!!! ... A concert full of similarly mesmerizing songs in her songwriting treasure chest! ... She warbles, she gargles, and at times she sounded like there may well be a dentist chair on stage at her Cairns Esplanade Commonwealth Games Concert! ... Nevertheless, all combining to be one of the most unique female singer songwriters on Earth. Not to mention having written one of the best "school bullying" songs ever written. I had been aware of Kates existence ever since she first emerged as a newly discovered seedling. But now I'm an avid fan. Well done Kate and crew. And well done all of Cairns for this amazing Commonwealth Games Music Festival. No wonder there are a few billionaires moored in town at the moment. The word has obviously spread of Cairns quintessential uniqueness! ... Keep up the good work!
Admittedly this is one of those songs I'll cringe at in public but gladly let myself sob to sleep to along at 4am.
What hurts is that I've been the person who walked away :-(
Polpiv4tifish Did you even get forgiven?
i was waked away from oneday.
I was the guy that had been person who was being bullied
Tomas O Neill lmao
