Lost my bruv back in 2016 to bi polar, played this at the funeral as we were both massive fans of the film and cry everytime I've watched it since. Took on a whole new meaning
I have always dedicated this song in my mind to my younger brother who died of cancer. Sleep in peace brother. And I will live a little for the sake of my children, I so want to see them grow up, get married and give my wife and me grandchildren. then I will definitely come to you. And we will play as in childhood. And our parents will hug us. I will come.
18 years and counting since I lost my baby brother. I will live this life to make him proud and then I too will join him with the hug that had to wait too long. ♥️ Sending you a hug.
this is such a sweet thought i hope for myself too… i lost my eldest brother 3 years ago now. i hope we get to see him again. life isn’t the same without him.
Almost 5 months since my father passed.. this song brings me back to that 2 month time of him getting severely ill and a cancer diagnosis and passing within a week after they estimated 4 to 6 months.. this song is beautiful and makes me ball instantly. It describes the situation perfectly.. I miss you dad.❤
Yes. My father passed away 2 weeks ago after a 45 day battle in the hospitals and deciding to let go. We sat with him as he drifted away. This song showed up in my Facebook feed that same day, I had never heard it before
The older I get, the more I relate to The National. There is a lot of music out there about experiencing heartbreak for the first or most intense time, but The National really captures the "ah fuck, here we go again" feeling you get when this isn't your first rodeo. They convey better than anyone the overwhelming feeling of resignation that comes with feeling like absolute dogshit as an adult. They don't write about intense new emotions; they write about intense, *familiar* emotions. They don't hurt any less, but they do hurt differently. It's music for sad dads, not angsty teens.
After 13 years together we separated for 10 months. He committed suicide. It's been 3 years, and I listen to this weekly. Reminds me of my love. I miss you, and forever will love you my Noely.
Met a girl who was absolutely amazing. We found each other on a work trip. We were from different states and different backgrounds. I ended up spending two nights with her in November.... We were completely on the same page with everything, we had a blast in so many ways. Crazy how fast things progressed. We hung out the third night we were together, but it seemed as if things had changed, she didn't seem as close. I did not spend the night with her and we went our separate ways without an explanation... I put a note under her hotel door that night... thinking that would be the last time I spoke to her or saw her.... My mind raced that next day.... I thought of her slipping away as I took a plane back home, wondering what the heck happened. Two days later I got a sweet message from her and she is now driving to meet me...... I don't want to lose her....
@@christinefinn9900 We met up and spent the day together.... it was really nice. We still are friends and talk. Just realize that we are too far away for anything of substance to take hold.... so I search for the love of my life.
To everyone that also suffers with the pain of losing their Mom or Dad, I love you. Wouldn't wish this pain on anyone, it'll be 4 years already come January. Feels like just yesterday. Rest in Paradise to all our Mom & Dad's or any loved one's for that matter.
Both my parents are gone mom passed two years ago dad 14 and never a day passes I don't think of them but I know they are somehow still with me they are everything now and i truly believe they are still together in spirit because there love was as one and you always felt it there love was real and true and I truly know meant to be together and I was blessed to have had that experience of seeing and feeling that love
many years have passed I never get tired of listening to this song. "About today", contained in the "Cherry Three" EP, is the Trojan horse to immerse yourself in listening to The National. "About Today" already contains all of The Alligator, the musical touch of the band, the spiritual one, the restlessness, the heart.
Today You were far away And I didn't ask you why What could I say I was far away You just walked away And I just watched you What could I say How close am I to losing you? Tonight You just close your eyes And I just watch you slip away How close am I to losing you? Hey, are you awake? Yeah, I'm right here. Well can I ask you about today? How close am I to losing you?
Was at the show yesterday, enjoying every minute. Matt ended the set with this one, one of my faves. Dying love, etc. Then I burst out in tears, realizing how it's spot on for my situation, taking care of my loving but selfish mom, as an only child. She was always irresponsible -- strained but fusional relationship -- I left at 15. She now has precocious dementia and is leaving so friggin' slowly. I do have my kids to care for but I sacrifice my every day for her, sometimes with frustration and anger, despite the love. There are days where I argue with her to get closure, even if it doesn't make any sense at all. Then I go and cut myself away from all unresolved feelings, because it's too late, pointless. Now emptying her house on my own. I ought to put her in a home next week. Brings up mixed feelings and I remain cold-headed to make it through. Unexpectedly, The National played the song yesterday and I just surrendered. All we ever had was each other.
@@Unherist that is so nice of you, coming from a stranger. i am not one to comment anything on the Web, not a social media person at all. but I felt I had to share cause I can only find meaning in this song and Sufjan Stevens' ones. although I have lots of friends and am of good company, i am hurting like hell and I feel guilty about it while there is so much more suffering to take care of in the world. i feel like i don't belong. hits me too hard. thanks for taking the time. makes me a bit more hopeful for humanity :-)
@melmarin-x6i I guess it's pointless for me to say that you shouldn't feel guilty, because I'm sure you know it deep down and yet the feeling is still there. But I think it is of the utmost importance to focus on ourselves when we're struggling with whatever life throws at us. Also I myself am learning to keep faith in humanity. I especially love reading comments under songs like this one, Sigur Ros' or Tool's (my two favorite bands). These places are filled with people sharing their experiences (good or bad) and people responding with sensitivity and care. It is really lovely to see and it does make you believe in the beauty of what we all are, collectively.
"This is the sunset of a relationship. This is when love is a dying flame. This is when a man cares so much about a girl, that he lets her walk away. Though he asks about her day, he knows the inevitable and wonders when that day will come when the sun will sink behind the mountain and go to bed alone. We've all been this man, where the woman simply doesnt understand how much we care, nor understand that our life, is her life. In the end, no kindling will restart that flame and you're left to watch her backside disappear into the dying warmth of the evening sun. All this because a man loves a woman."
this reminds me of losing my best friend in Iraq. I'll never forget the message that went across my screen in my vehicle even though I wasn't in the unit anymore. "Moon died today, I'm so sorry." I never got to tell my brother how I felt. I miss him always around Christmas season. RIP SSGJaeSikMoon.
I looked him up and found an account of him on fallen heroes project. You and your comrades lost a great one. I’m sad for you and I wish you well. I salute you.
Sorry to hear of the loss. 2006 was a bad time in Iraq, midway through the war it got so much worse than when it began. Many many many teenagers were KIA.
Today the love of my life broke up with me and the pain I feel is unbearable. I'm listening to this song on repeat and I never cried with so much sadness and hopelessness. It was the greatest love, deepest, full of tenderness, beautiful and I ruined it.
I wish you the best, time like these will fade and while it might not seem that way they will. I came back here today because I rememberd listening to this song when I had my breakup. Again, I wish you the best and I hope you can believe me when I say that there is always sunshine after rain :)
I’m so sorry. I have been there with this song back in 2013. I’m now married to him. I’m not saying that will be your story but know that your story is not over and you will find love again, even better than before ❤
This song is absolutely stunning and beautiful. Listening to it for years. I can only imagine the 354 thumbs down are people being disasspointed that this was too short. No worries there is a 7-8 minutes version as well, go ahead and enjoy it! I saw them playiing live about 8 times and feel blessed that I witnessed this song 1 of those 8 times. They are my favorite band in the world along with Sigur Ros.
I miss you more than anything you could ever imagine Mom. Apart of me died with you, you were my best friend and the only person to never give up on me no matter what wrongs I did.
Just all the music in Warrior was chosen accordingly! Every scene had its perfect drum beat/classical or ambient notes to portray what was happening. Very, VERY emotional film, I highly recommend it, it is very unappreciated.
My mother had neurosurgery in the last week to remove as much of a malignant brain tumor as possible. It was successful in that it will give her a little more time but sadly incurable. I have been taking solace when I can get time alone in music but this song in particular devastate me each and every time. I feel like I am watching my mother slip away in front of my eyes never knowing how close I am to losing her. Some days she is great and we talk for hours but others she feels extremely far away and I can't ask why. Hopefully she will get better and we will have some happy times to come but my heart currently feels like it is shattering each time I wake in the morning and realise this isn't all a nightmare. Hey Are you awake? Yeah, I'm right here Well, can I ask you About today?
+John12050 animo....mucho animo e intenta disfrutarla todo lo posible intenta dejar todo el maximo tiempo que puedas para estar con ella...pasear....tomar helado esas cosas mirala a los ojos y disfruta de su mirada.Y cuando ya no este a tu lado haz lo que eya a querido para ti,que disfrutes de la vida.Un Saludo y un Abrazo
my man almost died 6 months ago. he said when everyone was gone he d listen to this song and think ab his daughter and his family. wow. just wow. this song will always make me shed a bittersweet tear. he got his transplant and is still very much alive. but if i do ever have to say goodbye this song will b my medicine. so beautifully written and thought out.
You know, I kinda visited your country not only because it's beautiful, but also because I knew you where there. I really didn't expect you to tell me that we should meet, but you did. Even after 2 years of knowing that everything ended I still imagined that moment, and man, waiting 2 years just to see you for 2 hours it's not a good deal. And yeah I pretended that I was feeling great, because I was doing great, but if I stopped talking it's because I had a knot in my throat and you touched something that I thought I forgot, you were so far away that day , so far away , and you were next to me. Those 20.000 kilometers where nothing compared to what I felt that day, you slipping through my fingers, that despair that I didn't want to feel, that you don't deserve from me. And when we said goodbye you didn't turn back to see me for one last time. I know that, because I did, and that's what hurt me the most.
Just heard this wonderfully sad and emotional song for the first time - at the end of an episode of The Affair, Season 4. Wow! Just wow! So hard not to cry. But in the end why shouldn't I? Happy that I haven't got a reason to - apart from this song making me feel like I had one. And that's worth some happy-sad tears, isn't it?
Listening to this, driving through the Negev - sometimes not taking any pictures of the perfect trees or the clear sky just to make a memory, I’ll always remember that trip. What a beautiful moment.
high school... man what a journey it was. The ups and the downs. The people you see on a daily basis, how different it feels to not see them at all now. What a bittersweet feeling it is. '16.
i look in a mirror and all i see is me, there's an empty space where you once stood... i would have stopped you if i could, but you were already home when you left me alone.. i can't write very well i can't capture the beauty to personify your grace word by word space by space.. but every single day ill miss see your face in this mirror.. and these words all smeared all i have left to say is spend every moment like its your last because you don't wanna be like me walking on shards of glass that once resembled a beautiful past.
I always felt like it was the end of a relationship until I lost my 101 year old grandpa who raised me. It’s so hard to watch the people you love pass slowly on hospice. All the physical words “far away” are more of the sense of emotionally. I am so sorry for your loss.
@@sherrynewington1120 I had heard it before and it felt different than a relationship sense and then my dad got the diagnosis out of nowhere and added so fast and this song lined up and made so much sense for the hospice end of life situation..
@@loganbarber3261I am so sorry your Dad got sick so fast. Cancer is terrible. I have been listening to it everyday since the new perspective. Hope you are able to find some closure. Grief is something I think we carry the rest of our lives. Lots of love to you, friend
@@sherrynewington1120 it's been tough.. also going through a divorce since January when he left. Grief is lifelong I agree. I lost my mom at 6 week old. Because of a doctor.. I lost my brother when I was 15 he was 24. I lost my grandparents all by 11. I also lost 3 of my mom's siblings my favorite aunt who was very much my 2nd mom when. I was 12 and my favorite uncle and my other uncle at like 26 and 29. It's rough. Grief is terrible but music and friends & family can help.
This sorrow pain and guilt I feel. Lost my sonshine… my baby to fucking drugs. Knew it was happening and didn’t get him locked up… let him go. The guilt will NEVER leave my soul. I failed him in the deepest and most harsh way. To continue life without him requires daily pain and inevitable Nasty Palatable Loss. Rest well my son. You’re missed by way too many. Forever love, Mama Watching “The East” great movie, hard song that had NOTHING to do with the feel of the movie. Was close to losing him, didn’t know how close. Regret fucking sucks.
Today You were far away And I Didn't ask you why What could I say I was far away You just walked away And I just watched you What could I say How close am I To losin' you Tonight You just close your eyes And I just watch you Slip away How close am I To losin' you Hey ... are you awake Yeah, I'm right here But can I ask you About today How close am I To losin' you How close am I To losin' ...
@@burpie3258 it was. He lost his connection to his father and brother at young age. Then lost his mother and his faith in god Then he lost a friend in friendly fire and lost his connection to the country he served After so many losses he only need it to be loved, and losing the match was the best loss cause he gain his brother's love
I never saw this until now.. I did tell him. We had a strained relationship because of things he never explained and I helda grudge and anger until a week or so before he passed.. once a family friend explained what really happened when I was 3. I balled and I apologized to him when he was somewhat with it and he accepted it and told me it was okay honey. 😢😢😢 I really miss him. I'm a orphan my mom died when I was 6 weeks old.
Well, we’re breaking up with my husband rn. And he was listening this couple minutes ago… he said this song made him more sad.. Breaking up while loving each other like crazy is breaking my heart. Saddest thing in my life
@@Rick-hp6fu ours is due to his alcohol usage. Can’t even compare with yours 😪 i’m so sorry to hear that… be stronge please, there’s a reason for everything you live. God bless! 🙏🏼
@@Macck.fitz.22 Thank you. I stay strong for our daughters' sake. I hope your husband can get the help he needs and you both come out of this stronger. God bless you both
I lost not only the love of my life but also my best friend and didn’t think anything of it at the time. Now two years down the road and 8-9 girls later I realize how special she was. I’m glad she got married and has 2 kids but I always think what if I had just apologized and didn’t take her for granted cause I have not yet found a girl even close to her. She was funny she always played tricks on me except when she dosed my red Bull with lsd as a joke cause I had done something similar to her a few weeks before with ghb but there is always going to be that one that we all take as someone who we don’t think is something special and can be disregarded because of our egos then I go out with these hump and dump girls that I could careless about and just wish I had crumbled my ego during a simple argument and had her in my bed right now. Our black lab died that I kept in the break up a few months back and it took all that time for me to realize his death was a realization of us actually being done forever.
I had to search this song thinking I lost the love of my life, I forgave many times tried my best everyday to give my family everything they deserve but now I know I dint lost but she did.
Lost my bruv back in 2016 to bi polar, played this at the funeral as we were both massive fans of the film and cry everytime I've watched it since. Took on a whole new meaning

my man almost died 6 months ago. he said when everyone was gone he d listen to this song and think ab his daughter and his family. wow. just wow. this song will always make me shed a bittersweet tear. he got his transplant and is still very much alive. but if i do ever have to say goodbye this song will b my medicine. so beautifully written and thought out.
+John12050 I hope things picked up mate, you've both had a very hard time.

One of the best scenes ever had this play at someone's funeral who I adored we used to watch this film all the time rip stevie D 💔
You know, I kinda visited your country not only because it's beautiful, but also because I knew you where there. I really didn't expect you to tell me that we should meet, but you did. Even after 2 years of knowing that everything ended I still imagined that moment, and man, waiting 2 years just to see you for 2 hours it's not a good deal.
And yeah I pretended that I was feeling great, because I was doing great, but if I stopped talking it's because I had a knot in my throat and you touched something that I thought I forgot, you were so far away that day , so far away , and you were next to me. Those 20.000 kilometers where nothing compared to what I felt that day, you slipping through my fingers, that despair that I didn't want to feel, that you don't deserve from me.
And when we said goodbye you didn't turn back to see me for one last time. I know that, because I did, and that's what hurt me the most.
😭😭😭😭So powerful! I burst into sobbing! Immediately!
Just heard this wonderfully sad and emotional song for the first time - at the end of an episode of The Affair, Season 4.
Wow! Just wow! So hard not to cry. But in the end why shouldn't I? Happy that I haven't got a reason to - apart from this song making me feel like I had one. And that's worth some happy-sad tears, isn't it?
Listening to this, driving through the Negev - sometimes not taking any pictures of the perfect trees or the clear sky just to make a memory, I’ll always remember that trip. What a beautiful moment.
I'M SORRY TOMMY! I'M SORRY. Just tap Tommy. Just tap.
Is this from something?
+blushy Thank you very much! ^-^
Bob Freeman love tht movie dont kno why more dont
Bob Freeman 😭😭😭😭😭😭😢
Bob Freeman am i the only one who cried?
Always makes me think about family trouble, but reminds me to keep trying to make things work. Never give up on fam
Omg this song absolutely breaks my heart I can’t stop crying when I listen to it…..amazing song!!
high school... man what a journey it was. The ups and the downs. The people you see on a daily basis, how different it feels to not see them at all now. What a bittersweet feeling it is. '16.
This song makes me think about my sister. Wait for me in heaven pay
This song is sad yet beautiful. I have felt all of these emotions
i look in a mirror and all i see is me, there's an empty space where you once stood...
i would have stopped you if i could, but you were already home when you left me alone..
i can't write very well i can't capture the beauty to personify your grace word by word space by space..
but every single day ill miss see your face in this mirror.. and these words all smeared all i have left to say is spend every moment like its your last because you don't wanna be like me walking on shards of glass that once resembled a beautiful past.
Can I ask you about today?
Here we go again ! A great song for me to totally obsess over!
Very inspiring,I can't imagen having to fight my brother,by far one of my favorite fight movies...
It’s something about this song that brings the sadness moments in life I don’t have a lot I just can tell
This song just hits.
Beautiful song!
Literally sitting on the porch smoking.. ironically my father's inside almost gone from esophageal cancer and on hospice care.. this song hits.
I always felt like it was the end of a relationship until I lost my 101 year old grandpa who raised me. It’s so hard to watch the people you love pass slowly on hospice. All the physical words “far away” are more of the sense of emotionally. I am so sorry for your loss.
@@sherrynewington1120 I had heard it before and it felt different than a relationship sense and then my dad got the diagnosis out of nowhere and added so fast and this song lined up and made so much sense for the hospice end of life situation..
@@sherrynewington1120 also tha k you, I'm sorry for your loss as well.
@@loganbarber3261I am so sorry your Dad got sick so fast. Cancer is terrible. I have been listening to it everyday since the new perspective. Hope you are able to find some closure. Grief is something I think we carry the rest of our lives. Lots of love to you, friend
@@sherrynewington1120 it's been tough.. also going through a divorce since January when he left. Grief is lifelong I agree. I lost my mom at 6 week old. Because of a doctor.. I lost my brother when I was 15 he was 24. I lost my grandparents all by 11. I also lost 3 of my mom's siblings my favorite aunt who was very much my 2nd mom when. I was 12 and my favorite uncle and my other uncle at like 26 and 29. It's rough. Grief is terrible but music and friends & family can help.
This song makes me think to myself about how far I have lost myself. Not anyone. Just me as a person
I miss you baby, and I wish I'd known just close I was to losing you. I'm so sorry....
we share the same pain
This sorrow pain and guilt I feel. Lost my sonshine… my baby to fucking drugs. Knew it was happening and didn’t get him locked up… let him go. The guilt will NEVER leave my soul. I failed him in the deepest and most harsh way. To continue life without him requires daily pain and inevitable Nasty Palatable Loss. Rest well my son. You’re missed by way too many. Forever love, Mama
Watching “The East” great movie, hard song that had NOTHING to do with the feel of the movie. Was close to losing him, didn’t know how close. Regret fucking sucks.
How can I Not love* this...? Heard on the film 'The East', with Alexander Skaarsgard & Ellen Page.
Why do we want love? It can cause more pain for us than anything else in this world. And yet we still want it. The mind boggles ...
Exactly why I steer away from relationships!
I’ve never felt so free.
2 years and counting! Lol
One of my fav songs! wow.
Today
You were far away
And I
Didn't ask you why
What could I say
I was far away
You just walked away
And I just watched you
What could I say
How close am I
To losin' you
Tonight
You just close your eyes
And I just watch you
Slip away
How close am I
To losin' you
Hey ... are you awake
Yeah, I'm right here
But can I ask you
About today
How close am I
To losin' you
How close am I
To losin' ...
Thanks for the 60fps.
+NeoCranium I couldn't have enjoyed the album art without it
Would have enjoyed it so much more in 4K!
OMG this! funny
This i s what i put up with
Why do you need to see An Album cover in 60fps again?
“I’m sorry Tommy! I’m sorry… Tap out Tom! It’s OK! It’s OK! I Love You! I Love You Tommy!“
?
@@juliustuomikangas1352 warrior - a pretty good movie. This song plays in the final scene.
He only tapped after Brendan said he loved him 😭 Maybe that's all Tommy needed...
@@burpie3258 it was. He lost his connection to his father and brother at young age. Then lost his mother and his faith in god
Then he lost a friend in friendly fire and lost his connection to the country he served
After so many losses he only need it to be loved, and losing the match was the best loss cause he gain his brother's love
She was the love I wanted but could never have.
Too late in life I found her &
too soon she left me…🪦 🥀
This song reminds me of my twin.... if you see this Joey I Love you ❤️
Great music!
This is sad. I am sad.
Its okay to cry.
Honey I cry too, you better believe it.
Hm.
😂😂 you just described my experience
Sophie Livingston ♥️
I don't want to share this with someone who won't end up marrying me.
Literally cried at this song.
This song reminds me of the situation I'm going through.. losing my father slowly. 😢
My father was never there for me. Tell your daddy how he has always been there for you...
I never saw this until now.. I did tell him. We had a strained relationship because of things he never explained and I helda grudge and anger until a week or so before he passed.. once a family friend explained what really happened when I was 3. I balled and I apologized to him when he was somewhat with it and he accepted it and told me it was okay honey. 😢😢😢 I really miss him. I'm a orphan my mom died when I was 6 weeks old.
Lovely song
Damn, this cuts deep.
This song was in the Affair on Showtime season 4 ep 5. Beautiful song.
What a tune 😢
the tears are real
When you have that moment of ..:"would have ... should have ... could have" as you see it ending and unable to stop it.
Bring on The Path season 2 ahhhhh I can't wait!
Stay strong kings 👑👑👑
Love this, would love to hear jonny cash sing this
Hey, are you awake?
Yeah, I'm right here
Can I ask you about today?
How close am I to losing you?
It's all in your head, mate.
Well, we’re breaking up with my husband rn. And he was listening this couple minutes ago… he said this song made him more sad.. Breaking up while loving each other like crazy is breaking my heart. Saddest thing in my life
@@Rick-hp6fu ours is due to his alcohol usage. Can’t even compare with yours 😪 i’m so sorry to hear that… be stronge please, there’s a reason for everything you live. God bless! 🙏🏼
@@Macck.fitz.22 Thank you. I stay strong for our daughters' sake. I hope your husband can get the help he needs and you both come out of this stronger. God bless you both
@@Rick-hp6fu reach me out on some social media i’d like to listen to you. Pain gets less when you share with someone
@@Macck.fitz.22 I'd like that. But I don't have any social media. I can set up an account. What are you on?
@@Rick-hp6fu Instagram
I lost not only the love of my life but also my best friend and didn’t think anything of it at the time. Now two years down the road and 8-9 girls later I realize how special she was. I’m glad she got married and has 2 kids but I always think what if I had just apologized and didn’t take her for granted cause I have not yet found a girl even close to her. She was funny she always played tricks on me except when she dosed my red Bull with lsd as a joke cause I had done something similar to her a few weeks before with ghb but there is always going to be that one that we all take as someone who we don’t think is something special and can be disregarded because of our egos then I go out with these hump and dump girls that I could careless about and just wish I had crumbled my ego during a simple argument and had her in my bed right now. Our black lab died that I kept in the break up a few months back and it took all that time for me to realize his death was a realization of us actually being done forever.
Love this. My favourite
Found this band through The Midy Project and I love them!
its okay tommy, its okay .... tommy .. I love you tommy
I found this song in the movie called warrior. This movie made me cry
Essa música é incrível
A really nice song - sad but nice --
This song has a really sad vibe to it but somehow puts a smile on my face
- (who’s here from warrior)
I MISS MY EX AND THIS SONG BRINGS BACK MEMORIES

The beautiful sad desperation in this simple layered and delicate masterpiece. Music at it's finest emotive power. Well done The National.
