My mum had a drinking problem, throughout my brothers and my childhoods. Our childhood consisted of trying to cover it up while dad worked away. My older brother was 12 when he walked in to find her fitting because of withdrawal. Dad tried sending her to AA meetings always found her in the pub. I lost my brother in 2018, she got worse with drink after that. In 2019 she took her own life. We will never know if she took her own life intentionally or not. I will never understand how someone could choose alcohol over their own children. This song reminds me of her but it’s bittersweet. If you’ve got a parent with a drinking problem, hang in there because you may not feel it but you are stronger then you know. Even when you feel your alone in this battle you aren’t there’s other kids out there going through similar. We’re rooting for you, I’m rooting for you. You’ve got this.
I had a similar situation. Mom had a huge alcohol problem basically out of nowhere. I was 19 at the time and that was the first I’ve ever experienced that my whole life. She thankfully came out of the right side and has been great ever sense. I can feel this song.
carlo disabatino addiction can do so much damage and leave a lasting impact on kids, but from what you’ve said you appear to be a pretty sound dude. Continue to own it. Be proud of how far you come.
This song makes me cry every time I hear it. I have a "Gloria" in my life whom I love and worry about constantly. I don't know how many times I've asked her "When is enough, enough?" Heart strings tugged man.
Me and my sister were given up for fostering after I was born, because my parents were alcoholics and couldn't look after us. My mom and dad were walking home from a bar, drunk, late one night and my mom ended up losing her footing and fell into a bog drain at the side of the road. She drowned that night. My dad died when I was 12 from lung cancer and other ailments from addiction. I spent a lot of time in the hospital waiting for him to wake up from a coma but he never really did. I'm now 17, and I found this song a couple days ago, and it speaks volumes to me. "no one said enough is enough"
I listened to the Lumineers for the first time traveling the length of Vietnam by train. It is the quintessential travel sound. Great memories and always brings back a nostalgic sense that I always appreciate. Thank you.
I'm still hoping to find someone who can sing The Lumineers' songs with me. This band is a rare type of gem. Being able to sing the lyrics of their songs is a privilege. :)
Funny, I've been puzzling over this line... I don't understand it. Can you explain? I mean I get that the narrator of the song is saying this but...why would the subject (the person the song is about) be lying awake for the narrator? And why would the narrator be hoping that's not the case? And why is this situation so meaningful?
@@deandeck I think it's to say that the narrator is lying awake due to him being worried for Gloria's well-being. They seem to be mentioning Gloria's use of alcohol throughout the song. No one enjoys lying awake b/c of stress or worry for a loved one, hence why he says he prays she doesn't lie awake for him (also). As it's troubling. Wonderful song and very deep story!
@@deandeck Maybe b/c she is an addict, and is aware that it might be affecting her family.. just my two cents.But music can be interpreted in a multitude of ways :)
I first listened to The Lumineers 7 years ago on the way home from my great grandmothers funeral, Ho Hey began playing on the radio and I fell in love with them instantly. They always evoke so many long forgotten memories.
The Lumineers aren't musicians. They are the wish ones who tell the stories of others. They are the ones who believe all is good when there is bad. This isn't music. This is a story.
I think ur wrong. They are musicians because they make my ears feel good, with how they play their instruments, and "kaito", why dont you make some music
I’m lucky to have a mom who is recovering well from alcoholism. I’ve had my own struggles and I’m recovering from my own drug addictions, but damn this song hits home. Reminds me of all the times she was struggling with alcohol and I watched it all
Agree! Like if those memories happened in a past that actually has never existed or sth... i get what you mean... it is difficult to explain, but beautiful, oh so beautiful to feel ✨
How true and this tune is about my best friend, she is sober 20 years now and we are still having fun, she came close to not making it! Just danced to this tune at their concert in Saratoga NY, they rocked!
I was going through a difficult time when this song was out bad times don't always last I'm over that difficult time and you will get over yours too happy new year to all you people in music land
@Evan Snyder but man, the Lumineers have new album, the strunbellas too, foster the people has released 2 songs and there will be more is good enough for me, and if there's music you don't like just ignore it like I do ;)
I had an alchoholic grandma all my life and although she was an alcoholic I cherished every moment we spent together although she wasn't the best to anyone. This song hits me different like no other song. RIP Estella Adame Sanchez ❤
"I would lie awake and pray you don't lie awake for me." Because Gloria is the mom in this story, and she's an alcoholic. And her child is up at night, hoping their mom isn't up (drinking) because of them. Heart-breaking.
this song reminds me of my dad, my entire childhood/life he was a manulipitive, alcoholic, deadbeat dad. he would constantly verbally abuse my mom and i’d always have to comfort her while she was crying and screaming about how horrible he was when i was only 6 years old. i had to comfort her all the way until i was 14 and he eventually died from liver cancer when i was 15. eventually my mom admitted she was always too scared to leave him and i learned that he was also physically abusive
I absolutely love this song. But the most beautiful moment of this video is at 1:49. There are no lyrics, but the subtle, powerful visual is incredibly moving. In this shot alone, you can see the beauty of Gloria peak through with the slightly askew black bar showing a slim window at the happiness she feels with her children. There is no pain, no addiction. Just love. Just a moment of clarity into what's important in life. It's mesmerizing and hauntingly wonderful
Lost my mother to alcohol when I was 14. She pretty much died of organs failure and had hepatitis B, she only drank for ten years...but I guess she had her reasons to stay high always. I'll have this song in my play list now on and will think of her always as it'll play. I miss you mother, hope we'll meet someday....
This song exposed me to the Lumineers. I was driving through the Bay Area from Sacramento, browsing radio stations. I heard this song and saved it to my liked songs on youtube. Over a year later I am listening to it almost every day, and I like it more and more every time.
Thank you Lumineers. Your music is such a MOOD! I also think of My Sister Mrs. King & My Brother Mr. King when I hear this song. My Husband and I can’t wait for our new baby niece/nephew to be born! VIPS FOREVER! 📚❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🤎🖤🤍❤️
I think we all have a Gloria or maybe we are Gloria. I hope the best for you. Hang in there, i am 15 years clean, it hard evey day. Peace to you Josh. And to everyone who lost someone to this disease, addiction is a unkind bitch but it can be beat.
WHO IS GLORIA? Someone's widow? Did she struggle with drug and alcohol addiction? Did she die from this or something else? Was she a single mother? Did she break someone's heart? Was she lost in the shuffle and fell through the cracks of life? I don't know, I might never find out. But I've been dancing around the house singing this song for the past few hours. Laughing, crying, living. Thank you, Lumineers. I can't wait to hear the rest of this album...
ColdAsHe11 this is just a guess, but for some reason I feel like it could be about Any Winehouse. She was a drug addict and drank. But, if she isn’t Gloria who is? Well, I think it could be something that goes with the story of Cleopatra, Ophelia, Angela, etc. I’m hoping a music video comes out and has some sort of explanation. Maybe other songs released would help us know. We may never know, but I hope we do someday.
if anyone ws wondering whats the chord and lyric it is: B E B Gloria, I smell it on your breath B E B Gloria, booze and peppermint G#m F# E B Gloria, no one said enough is enough //Just repeat it Gloria, they found you on the floor Gloria, my hand was tied to yours And, Gloria, did you finally see that enough is enough? Did you know me when I was younger then? I could take the whole world with me I would find myself feelin' alone Heaven, help me now, Heaven, show the way Get me back on my own two feet I would lie awake and pray you don't lie awake for me Oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh Gloria, you crawled up on your cross Gloria, you made us sit and watch Gloria, no one said enough is enough Heaven, help me now (hey, hey), Heaven, show the way (Heaven, show) Get me back on my own two feet I would lie awake and pray you don't lie awake for me Every night away (every night), every day alone (every day) Get me back on my own two feet I would lie awake and pray you don't lie awake for me Oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh Gloria, will you just decide? Gloria, there's easier ways to die Gloria, have you had enough?
Thank you for this song. I lost a cousin to alcoholism a few weeks ago. Family members found him. Other family members struggle with the disease also. It's nice to know that none of us suffer alone with these experiences with the people we love.
Well I can relate to this song.. my mom was a recovering alcoholic, died bang in the middle of the summer holidays, right after we’d been on holiday. Turns out she couldn’t help it and went to the alcohol, which she just couldn’t take. And my dad is nowhere to be, so I’m now living with my grandparents. I feel terribly guilty writing this, but they’re more of my parents than she was. I will always love her and thank her for giving me such a good childhood, but she knew herself, I think. The night before she passed, she wrote a letter, saying that she wanted me to be raised by my grandparents, and they could give me a good life of what she never could.
Amber Louise I’m sorry for your loss and that your dad isn’t around at the moment💗. Also, you shouldn’t feel guilty about feeling like that, as long as you’re getting by and being taken care of❤️.
Eileen Fezza thank you, I really appreciate it 😊 My grandparents are really really lovely people and I’m really grateful to be with them. The loss of my mom will haunt me forever, but one day at a time, I guess. My dad isn’t around since he lost custody of me, which I’m quite glad of to be honest, I never really knew him properly. I’m doing as well as I can ❤️
I'm sure this isn't the first comment like this but I had to say I had my first court date for a dui. I have no record and have been fighting for help for a drug addiction. This song (although I have heard it) after truly listening and researching couldn't have come at a better time to push me to try harder. Just had to thank you for sharing that with the world and for helping me
Can't wait to see them for the 4th time in Manchester this November. I've loved their music for the last 7 years. They remind me of my travels through Europe, the people I've met and the soundtrack of the love of my life, whom I marry next year and just bought our first home together. They are the soundtrack of all my adventures by motorcycle and they make me feel nostalgic for memories I haven't even made yet. The lumineers are simply magical.
Gloria I smell it on your breath Gloria Booze and peppermint Gloria No one said enough is enough Gloria They found you on the floor Gloria My hand was tied to yours Gloria Did you finally see that enough is enough? Did you know me when I was younger then? I could take the whole world with me I would find myself feelin' alone Heaven help me now, heaven show the way Get me back on my own two feet I would lie awake and pray you don't lie awake for me Oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Gloria You crawled up on your porch Gloria You made us sit and watch Gloria No one said enough is enough Heaven help me now, heaven show the way Get me back on my own two feet I would lie awake and pray you don't lie awake for me Every night away, every day alone Get me back on my own two feet I would lie awake and pray you don't lie awake for me Oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Gloria Will you just decide? Gloria There's easier ways to die Gloria Have you had enough?
This song helps me see the lie that I believed for years.. that it was my fault. The many nights I prayed and I still do. We are only in control of our own actions and God loves us enough to have mercy.
@gloriasol8197 Do you like this song? Just heard it for the first time. Not a fan. The other Gloria song I hate is the one by Laura Branigan. But I do like the one by U2,Van Morrison and The Midnight. So it's not all bad.
@gloriasol8197 I just listened to 3 other ' Gloria' songs I had been unaware of. They are " Going Home to Gloria" by Roy Orbison," Spearhead's " Gloria" and GreenDay" Viva la Gloria". The song that influenced my Mother's name choice though was by The Cadillacs. I hope you find plenty of good songs with or without Gloria in them.
I cant help but to think of my mum as I listen to this song. My mom was a great lady, talented ,charismatic, pretty, list goes on. EXCEPT she's a terrible alcoholic. Funny thing is my Grandma, her mom who's also an alcoholic, her name was Gloria. The story's I could tell about my mum and Grandma. It's a rough road
Our Father in heaven, may your name be kept holy. May your Kingdom come soon. May your will be done on earth, as it is in heaven. Give us today the food we need, and forgive us our sins, as we have forgiven those who sin against us. And don’t let us yield to temptation, but rescue us from the evil one. For yours is the kingdom the glory and the power for ever and ever Amen
I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing. John 15:5 KJV
My grandmother's name was Gloria. She died at the beginning of this year. We were close but I was not able to be there for her final days. Thanks, Luminers for making music that evokes all the precious beautiful and clumsy memories I had with her. Abuela te amo por siempre. 🌷
This makes me want to drive on an open road in beautiful Montana.. then stop in a cool mom n pop spot for a great cheeseburger, fries and a coke!! Just my 2 cents
3:05 is so fucking special to me When this song came out in 2019, I was in a really bad place both physically and mentally. Often thinking nothing would get better, losing weight and hair, etc. It was really bad. I was self-destructing in a horrible and reckless way. I lived with my parents at that time. My mom (bless her) tried to put up with me as long as she could. Going out her way. But I was practically an asshole. I gave up on saving my own life and we had many arguments. In one of those arguments, she goes and tells me “what is it that you want? to die? there’s easier ways if you want it! just say it!” afterwards I found this song and it pulled me into self reflection. I spent heavenly hours listening to it. As a coping mechanism I guess. Nowadays, I’m better. I overcame that specific thing that was making me self-destruct. Although still in a shitty place, it isn’t as bad as it was then. And this song, fucking hell, speaks to me in ways I can’t believe.
Here are the full lyrics... Gloria I smell it on your breath Gloria Booze and peppermint Gloria No one said enough is enough Gloria They found you on the floor Gloria My hand was tied to yours Gloria Did you finally see that enough is enough? Did you know me when I was younger then? I could take the whole world with me I would find myself feelin' alone Heaven help me now, heaven show the way Get me back on my own two feet I would lie awake and pray you don't lie awake for me Oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Gloria You crawled up on your cross Gloria You made us sit and watch Gloria No one said enough is enough Heaven help me now, heaven show the way Get me back on my own two feet I would lie awake and pray you don't lie awake for me Every night away, every day alone Get me back on my own two feet I would lie awake and pray you don't lie awake for me Oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Gloria Will you just decide? Gloria There's easier ways to die Gloria Have you had enough?
@@emilygrab1004 yeah, but personally I, and I presume some other people, prefer to see them all in one place so you can look at the next or previous lyric
In the line 'booze and peppermint' the peppermint symbolises mouthwash, which many alcoholics drink, because it leaves a nice scent, making people not realise that they're drunk, but does the trick.
Amazing band! The Lumineers are amazing musicians and singer-songwriters, and it is extremely difficult or impossible to understand why a person would not like them. Honestly, I have not found anyone who doesn't like The Lumineers, even if they don't become one of their favorite bands. Still, there are all kinds of people and musical tastes in this crazy world. We must respect other musical tastes, even if we don't get them. The Lumineers play their instruments beautifully, their voices are raw and soothing, and their lyrics are real-life stories that people can relate to directly or indirectly. Many of their songs make one want to clap and dance; others make you reflect and feel sad, and there’s nothing wrong with it. All kinds of human emotions are covered in their music, which is genuine, honest, and good to many people and me. 🙂
Song is just as simple as ordinary day of our lives. Glory to The Lumineers for sharing a sheer sound among us - it is much better to be grateful for every moment with that kind of songs.

Sucks how are childhood haunts us I'm over my shit but it made me who I am could have been different person but this is me and its ok
Addiction is hard on everyone especially the kids

Man, to me The Lumineers is a synonym of quality, nostalgia and happiness. Can't be more exited about this new material.
You my friend have literally nailed it with that one.
Yes.

.... happiness....? We listening to the same songs?

I want to live a life that feels like The Lumineer’s music sounds
I don’t know. These lyrics are kinda sad.
When you do take me with you
Just like a soundtrack in the film of my life ...
Me too. This music helps me feel so good
Then do it nothing is stopping you . believe in yourself
This song makes me cry every time I hear it. I have a "Gloria" in my life whom I love and worry about constantly. I don't know how many times I've asked her "When is enough, enough?" Heart strings tugged man.

That sounds so beautiful. Their music is definitely the type to make memories to! Glad you had such a wonderful experience, with memories to match :)
Literally the best music to listen too while on the road. Soo excited about the album
That's very odd cause I listened to their albums while travelling Vietnam as well. Thought I had made this comment and forgot about it.

I love that feeling actually
I actually have done this like very recently! This is a perfect analogy for my life at the moment! Thank you for that!
This is not that kind of song, partner. Sorry to say

The Lumineers aren't musicians. They are the wish ones who tell the stories of others. They are the ones who believe all is good when there is bad. This isn't music. This is a story.
Dammmm bro or mam, couldn't have said it better
Fuck me if that isn't poetically beautifully and true!

Whoa - if you have/had a parent, especially a mother, that battled with alcoholism, this song hits you in the gut.

Thank you for this song. My mother is 70 and still an alcoholic. Remarkable that for some people.. enough is never enough.
They write about things other bands are too afraid to talk about! They’re unbelievable both lyrically and the sounds they produce are next-level.

A Perfect Circle literally has an entire album about addiction (Thirteenth Step).
They are trash

"I would lie awake and pray you don't lie awake for me." Because Gloria is the mom in this story, and she's an alcoholic. And her child is up at night, hoping their mom isn't up (drinking) because of them. Heart-breaking.
this song reminds me of my dad, my entire childhood/life he was a manulipitive, alcoholic, deadbeat dad. he would constantly verbally abuse my mom and i’d always have to comfort her while she was crying and screaming about how horrible he was when i was only 6 years old. i had to comfort her all the way until i was 14 and he eventually died from liver cancer when i was 15. eventually my mom admitted she was always too scared to leave him and i learned that he was also physically abusive
You were a parentified child. It's not a child's duty to comfort a parent. It's should be the other way around. Hope you are doing fine now!
Congratulations its ANOTHER girl!
Different names for one girl!
What name will you give ?
Athena.
When they say "Gloria, have you had enough", man, I really felt that.
If the Lumineers did a crime documentary for Netflix this video would be the opening.

I'm so sorry about that... but again I guess we have our own reasons to stay high always...
wishing you the best
You will meet again one day!
This song exposed me to the Lumineers. I was driving through the Bay Area from Sacramento, browsing radio stations. I heard this song and saved it to my liked songs on youtube. Over a year later I am listening to it almost every day, and I like it more and more every time.
Thank you Lumineers. Your music is such a MOOD! I also think of My Sister Mrs. King & My Brother Mr. King when I hear this song. My Husband and I can’t wait for our new baby niece/nephew to be born! VIPS FOREVER! 📚❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🤎🖤🤍❤️
Also this song is dedicated to one of my Favorite Bosses/Mentoras ever. Ms. Gloria. J , A, and I MISS YOU QUEEN! VIPS! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
2016: Ophelia
2017: Angela
Cleopatra
2019: Gloria
Do you know it's all connected?
What other names end with "a"?
Akash how
Heard they're all lesbian sisters
All ex
I have to name my daughters Ophelia, Angela, Cleopatra, and now Gloria I guess.
Chandler Whitchurch Ophelia and Cleopatra are two beautiful names, although you don’t really hear those names today
👏 👏
Jacob Wood she hates the Donna
They convinced me to name my daughter Ophelia.🤷 & I'm not regretting it one bit. ♥️
amanda mizer I would have no regrets either
I think we all have a Gloria or maybe we are Gloria. I hope the best for you. Hang in there, i am 15 years clean, it hard evey day. Peace to you Josh. And to everyone who lost someone to this disease, addiction is a unkind bitch but it can be beat.
*Their songs always make me feel like I'm watching a movie* 💜
I saw them twice in Seattle on a hillside. Once, they walked through the crowd while playing Ophelia.
Love this band.
WHO IS GLORIA?
Someone's widow?
Did she struggle with drug and alcohol addiction? Did she die from this or something else?
Was she a single mother? Did she break someone's heart?
Was she lost in the shuffle and fell through the cracks of life?
I don't know, I might never find out. But I've been dancing around the house singing this song for the past few hours. Laughing, crying, living.
Thank you, Lumineers. I can't wait to hear the rest of this album...
ColdAsHe11 feel u on this
ColdAsHe11 this is just a guess, but for some reason I feel like it could be about Any Winehouse. She was a drug addict and drank. But, if she isn’t Gloria who is? Well, I think it could be something that goes with the story of Cleopatra, Ophelia, Angela, etc. I’m hoping a music video comes out and has some sort of explanation. Maybe other songs released would help us know. We may never know, but I hope we do someday.
Great wonders. I like what you just said. This song is perfect.
I’m with you. I’m getting a sense of addiction and attempting suicide, a mother or aunt.
Are u drunk?
Never stop making music, you're the best band I've ever heard.
if anyone ws wondering whats the chord and lyric it is:
B E B
Gloria, I smell it on your breath
B E B
Gloria, booze and peppermint
G#m F# E B
Gloria, no one said enough is enough
//Just repeat it
Gloria, they found you on the floor
Gloria, my hand was tied to yours
And, Gloria, did you finally see that enough is enough?
Did you know me when I was younger then?
I could take the whole world with me
I would find myself feelin' alone
Heaven, help me now, Heaven, show the way
Get me back on my own two feet
I would lie awake and pray you don't lie awake for me
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh
Gloria, you crawled up on your cross
Gloria, you made us sit and watch
Gloria, no one said enough is enough
Heaven, help me now (hey, hey), Heaven, show the way (Heaven, show)
Get me back on my own two feet
I would lie awake and pray you don't lie awake for me
Every night away (every night), every day alone (every day)
Get me back on my own two feet
I would lie awake and pray you don't lie awake for me
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh
Gloria, will you just decide?
Gloria, there's easier ways to die
Gloria, have you had enough?
Thank you for this song. I lost a cousin to alcoholism a few weeks ago. Family members found him. Other family members struggle with the disease also. It's nice to know that none of us suffer alone with these experiences with the people we love.
I'm a simple man I saw Lumineers, I immediately clicked on it ❤️
To me Gloria is a person struggling with alcoholism, and Gloria is also the alcohol itself to that person.
Well I can relate to this song.. my mom was a recovering alcoholic, died bang in the middle of the summer holidays, right after we’d been on holiday. Turns out she couldn’t help it and went to the alcohol, which she just couldn’t take. And my dad is nowhere to be, so I’m now living with my grandparents.
I feel terribly guilty writing this, but they’re more of my parents than she was. I will always love her and thank her for giving me such a good childhood, but she knew herself, I think. The night before she passed, she wrote a letter, saying that she wanted me to be raised by my grandparents, and they could give me a good life of what she never could.
Amber Louise you don’t have ANY REASON to feel guilty.
😭😭
Amber Louise I’m sorry for your loss and that your dad isn’t around at the moment💗. Also, you shouldn’t feel guilty about feeling like that, as long as you’re getting by and being taken care of❤️.
I know you wrote that a couple months ago but I’m just seeing your comment so I hope you’re doing well🙂
Eileen Fezza thank you, I really appreciate it 😊
My grandparents are really really lovely people and I’m really grateful to be with them. The loss of my mom will haunt me forever, but one day at a time, I guess.
My dad isn’t around since he lost custody of me, which I’m quite glad of to be honest, I never really knew him properly. I’m doing as well as I can ❤️
I'm sure this isn't the first comment like this but I had to say I had my first court date for a dui. I have no record and have been fighting for help for a drug addiction. This song (although I have heard it) after truly listening and researching couldn't have come at a better time to push me to try harder. Just had to thank you for sharing that with the world and for helping me
Can't wait to see them for the 4th time in Manchester this November. I've loved their music for the last 7 years. They remind me of my travels through Europe, the people I've met and the soundtrack of the love of my life, whom I marry next year and just bought our first home together. They are the soundtrack of all my adventures by motorcycle and they make me feel nostalgic for memories I haven't even made yet. The lumineers are simply magical.

This song helps me see the lie that I believed for years.. that it was my fault. The many nights I prayed and I still do. We are only in control of our own actions and God loves us enough to have mercy.
watching this on 2019.
oh wait.. this is from 2019! such good musics that remind me other decades
SAME. Thought this was something i heard in my childhood
I agree
Powerful song, powerful images to accompany.
I was privileged to see them in concert in 2017 and Mumford and Sons in 2015. My 2 favourite bands forever and always.
My name is Gloria.
@gloriasol8197
Do you like this song? Just heard it for the first time. Not a fan. The other Gloria song I hate is the one by Laura Branigan. But I do like the one by U2,Van Morrison and The Midnight. So it's not all bad.
@@gloriastroedecke2717 Oddly enough, I do like this song. I also like the other ones as well. They're catchy
@gloriasol8197
I just listened to 3 other ' Gloria' songs I had been unaware of. They are " Going Home to Gloria" by Roy Orbison," Spearhead's " Gloria" and GreenDay" Viva la Gloria". The song that influenced my Mother's name choice though was by The Cadillacs. I hope you find plenty of good songs with or without Gloria in them.
This tore my heart apart. Losing someone like this, it would do a number on you
I had the amazing opportunity to see them live in a park filled with amazing souls seeking the nostalgia , love and happiness this band exudes ❤️
I cant help but to think of my mum as I listen to this song. My mom was a great lady, talented ,charismatic, pretty, list goes on. EXCEPT she's a terrible alcoholic. Funny thing is my Grandma, her mom who's also an alcoholic, her name was Gloria. The story's I could tell about my mum and Grandma. It's a rough road
Sorry love, I think after the first line in this song the children of alcoholics knew exactly what this song is about.. you are not alone.
Our Father in heaven, may your name be kept holy. May your Kingdom come soon. May your will be done on earth, as it is in heaven. Give us today the food we need, and forgive us our sins, as we have forgiven those who sin against us. And don’t let us yield to temptation, but rescue us from the evil one. For yours is the kingdom the glory and the power for ever and ever Amen
I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.
John 15:5 KJV
Es simplemente hermoso ♥️ ... Hermoso ... Saludos de Puno .. Perú ... La buena Música llega hasta aquí...
Excelentes gustos musicales 🙂🙂
I genuinely fight back tears hearing this song... This is music.
Absolutely incredible artists
My grandmother's name was Gloria. She died at the beginning of this year. We were close but I was not able to be there for her final days. Thanks, Luminers for making music that evokes all the precious beautiful and clumsy memories I had with her. Abuela te amo por siempre. 🌷
This makes me want to drive on an open road in beautiful Montana.. then stop in a cool mom n pop spot for a great cheeseburger, fries and a coke!! Just my 2 cents
Sounds so comfortable
3:05 is so fucking special to me
When this song came out in 2019, I was in a really bad place both physically and mentally. Often thinking nothing would get better, losing weight and hair, etc. It was really bad. I was self-destructing in a horrible and reckless way. I lived with my parents at that time. My mom (bless her) tried to put up with me as long as she could. Going out her way. But I was practically an asshole. I gave up on saving my own life and we had many arguments. In one of those arguments, she goes and tells me “what is it that you want? to die? there’s easier ways if you want it! just say it!” afterwards I found this song and it pulled me into self reflection. I spent heavenly hours listening to it. As a coping mechanism I guess.
Nowadays, I’m better. I overcame that specific thing that was making me self-destruct. Although still in a shitty place, it isn’t as bad as it was then. And this song, fucking hell, speaks to me in ways I can’t believe.
I have an eerily similar story…even the same timeline it’s pretty crazy…glad to see you recovering and hopefully thriving!
Hey there, thank you for sharing your story. I hope you are in a better place now :)

Tom Hill they’re in the video?
@@emilygrab1004 yeah, but personally I, and I presume some other people, prefer to see them all in one place so you can look at the next or previous lyric
Tom Hill ah okay
*you crawled up on your cross
In the line 'booze and peppermint' the peppermint symbolises mouthwash, which many alcoholics drink, because it leaves a nice scent, making people not realise that they're drunk, but does the trick.
Amazing band! The Lumineers are amazing musicians and singer-songwriters, and it is extremely difficult or impossible to understand why a person would not like them. Honestly, I have not found anyone who doesn't like The Lumineers, even if they don't become one of their favorite bands. Still, there are all kinds of people and musical tastes in this crazy world. We must respect other musical tastes, even if we don't get them. The Lumineers play their instruments beautifully, their voices are raw and soothing, and their lyrics are real-life stories that people can relate to directly or indirectly. Many of their songs make one want to clap and dance; others make you reflect and feel sad, and there’s nothing wrong with it. All kinds of human emotions are covered in their music, which is genuine, honest, and good to many people and me. 🙂
Lost both parents to addiction 20 years ago, 6 months apart and every day is a struggle to do better. God bless you all.
Nostalgic video thank you. Brings back loads of memories
They are just so good!! This song and leader of the Landslide just hit me on a different level
the same beautiful energy in this new song,, i’m thankful to called The Lumineers my fav band THANK YOU for THAT
I just like how simple the delivery of the song is ! No mystery just a story meant to be understood. ☺️
their songs make me wanna cry. why is that???
I'm torn between whether I should share this goodness or to keep it to myself because not everyone can see and hear the depth to their songs.
imagine being the main character in each of their song
gloria died of alcoholism .. first i thought it was suicide but not really much difference. Sad story told in an optimistic way
That's interesting and along the lines of what I was thinking. Great Song
It's kind of like a PG Jane Say's
Death by drinking or drugs is suicide. It's self destruction. She drank herself to death 💔
Jessi Marie It’s not suicide if she didn’t do it on purpose to kill herself
You never disappoint me. This song is amazing! Thank you.
Song is just as simple as ordinary day of our lives. Glory to The Lumineers for sharing a sheer sound among us - it is much better to be grateful for every moment with that kind of songs.
Cleopatra, Angela, gloria well done lumineers. The collections makes me so happy that i could literally feel the song
Every song he makes has good meaning to it... I love their music
My dad is an alcoholic, he is sober 3 months!
I’m proud for your dad!
Congratulations!❤🎉
Omg that's amazing 😍 I hope his and your journey are going well ❤
Long live your dad ❤
Saludos desde Perú son únicos cada música me transporta al más haya del universo ❤🇵🇪🇵🇪🇵🇪🇵🇪
Love the 70s pictures on the vid.
Im in love with part. 0:51 Gloria, did you finally see that enough is enough.
This song goes out to everyone who's lives are affected by a Gloria💕
this album reminds me of my life letting go of someone i loved
thanks lumineers for your songs 😃
Was looking for the St. Louis Blues song and discovered this masterpiece in the process
Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.
Galatians 6:2 KJV
Gloria: just when I was missing new music from my favorite band, they lead you by the hand, past the curtains, into my heart
the perfect song to grab a convertible and hit the road on a carefree summer day
So, this is the first time I hear a song with my name and i'm so happy right now
listen the song of the doors or patty smith !
"Heaven help me now, Heaven show the way, Get me back on my own two feet"
Oh so well written. Goodest art of all time, I’m sayin, up there…I’m right to say it. Every night awake…
Ok. I'm crying again.😭 This band is really something that pulls your tears down and then leaves you without wiping it.
