It's almost a point of anguish to me that no one I know can feel the emotional beauty that I get from his music. Ever since Close to Paradise I've been asking the same thing - how is this artist not recognised worldwide? But of course, tastes differ and all that. It's just hard to sit with so much passion and not be able to share it fully with people you know :/ hence I find myself now replying to a random comment... but it does lessen my anguish a little bit to know I'm not the only one who adores him :)
Don't worry. From what I know, he has a beautiful career, acclaimed and touring almost everywhere in the world. This is truly a great artist. Cheers, from Montreal, Canada.
I went to see Patrick performing 5 days ago ( Joliette, near from Montreal) . My third time, always amazing... This song, as Patrick explained, means that we have to embrace the emptiness inside of us because this is what drives us to create, to go forward.
I’m deeply grateful that my dad raised me on Patrick Watson. He painted me a lense to get through life on, he pathed a way for me to understand the art of music and composition in its truest form which made me a better instrumentalist, and that’s why my standards as a musician are so high. No one can beat this dude.
It is also your merit (or luck) that you, being just a child, were open to this music. Many children do not get into the music that adults are trying to discover for them. But you had a hole the size of musical touch that fits in Patrick's arms as much.
@@pedroj.martia.3054 Gracias! I just heard the song today on Spotify, but I knew I'd heard the incredible melody before. Watson does a great job in his version. What a melody.
I put this song when ever i m having an anxiety attack and it really helps me SOO much . If i could listen to one song for my whole life it will be melody noir . It s been playing in my mind for the past 2 weeks
camila aparicio He actually did give credit to Simón Díaz on his twitter and Bettsimar Díaz (Simon's daughter) liked. Because I actually was worried at first. But this is actually an homage to Tio Simón❤ Patrick said it is one of the most beautiful melodies he has heard in his life :)
Cuando lo escuche dije... nooo este ritmo, es americano, y me suena demasiado familiar, lo debe haber robado el cantante, pero bueno con lo que dices (que dió credito) me quedo tranquila y me parece lindo trabajo el que hizo patrick👍🏻
The most beautiful thing is not just this tribute to Simón Díaz, but the fact that he even has references to venezuelan national dancers with the traditional costumes, las bailarinas de danza nacionalista. So unique. ‘’Ser un buen venezolano, no es solamente haber nacido en esta tierra. Es respetarla, abrazarla y es quererla. Y es el orgullo que se siente de tenerla. ’’ Simón Díaz.
“This song was inspired by an incredible singer from Venezuela, Simon Diaz. I was so inspired by his music I had to write a tune,” explains Watson. “It’s a love song dedicated to the hole inside of you.” The video was shot in Montreal and was “inspired by an amazing film called ‘I am Cuba’,” adds Watson. “I wanted to make a sensual but surreal dance video, where the main character slowly gets eaten by a void, embodied by the other dancers. The dancers are a wonderful Colombian dance troupe who bring a mix of classical and modern elements to the piece. I hope you enjoy.”
@@julianimation1785 The joropo is a traditional dance of both Venezuela and Colombia, with sub-regional types, covering almost the entire Venezuelan territory and at least a quarter of the Colombian territory. Perhaps Patrick was inspired by the Colombian dance, but this is strange, considering that Simón Díaz's llanera music was always an ode to the Venezuelan dance of his own country. Although there is always discussion about who owns this beautiful dance, it is actually a heritage of both countries, hurray for that.
this song is so unique to me, gets me everytime. in a week my dear boyfriend moves to another country. i have loved this song for a really long time and at the beginning of our relationship (he knew that i loved this song) one night we went to one of our first dates and he surprised me with a picnic by the sea with this song playing. and i couldn't find anything to say because i really valued this song. i just cried and kissed him. now it has been two years and we are getting into a long distance relationship. it is hard but when i listen to this it softens my heart.
Lyrics : [Verse 1] Tell me where the wind is blowing 'Cause that's where the music's going You are my big dark blue And I wanna swim all around you You are the sweetest melody I never sung [Verse 2] I feel like I know you but you're just a ghost to me But when I sit beside your shadow somehow it comforts me You are the sweetest melody I never sung [Chorus] You are the island of love my remedy to rescue me You are the breeze of a song that carries me You are the sweetest melody I never sung La la la la la [Verse 4] I've got a hole the size of your touch that fits in your arms as much And when I try to fill it up the hole gets bigger every time You are the sweetest melody I never sung You are the sweetest melody I never sung [Chorus] You are the island of love my remedy to rescue me You are the breeze of a song that carries me You are the sweetest melody I never sung [Verse 5] Corta corta mi luna mi luna ya Esta melodia que es la misma que...

You pretty much nailed it! That's impressive to me, since I have a lot of trouble hearing what he sings... Maybe because English isn't my native language. But anyway, Mr Watson actually posted the lyrics on his facebook page on July 18. I'll paste the whole thing here: Tell me where the wind is blowing cause that’s where the music’s going You are my big dark blue and I want to swim all around you You are the sweetest melody I never sung I feel like I know you but you’re just a ghost to me And when I sit beside your shadow somehow it comforts me You are the sweetest melody I never sung You are the island of love my remedy to rescue me You are a breeze of a song that carries me You are the sweetest melody I never sung I’ve got a hole the size of your touch that fits in your arms this much And when I try to fill it up the hole gets bigger every time You are the sweetest melody I never sung You are my island of love my remedy to rescue me You are a breeze of a song that carries me You are the sweetest melody I never sung Canta canta mi luna mi luna llena Esta melodia es el abismo adentro de mi El abismo adentro de mi Mi luna mi luna llena
yeah I listened the similarities in the melody right away. Check tonada de la luna llena, if it was not a direct inspiration I would be surprised (of course here the chorus and many other things are different so I am not suggestin plagiarism or anything).
Sublime! Es la perfecta fusión entre melodías folklóricas latinoamericanas y música contemporánea, aunque con una nostalgia más intensa. Los arreglos y la musicalización son magistrales. Bravísimo!
Since I've heard this song, I felt In love with your music. Now, I'm a fan of your album.i downloaded your songs and always played it on my phone where ever I go, especially this one. RIP to my replay button 😊😍😍😍 -love from PHILIPPINES 🇵🇭

This sounds sooo Patrick Watson. I fell in love with his music ever since I heard 'Quiet Crowd' by mere accident. His music is probably composed by him somewhere on the Moon and then mixed in a studio on one of the rings of Saturn before being shipped to the earth by some inter-dimensional werewolf.
I consider that you represent a new step in musical evolution, you are a real artist for a new world and I feel impresed that you made such homage to one of our greatest artists of all times, Simón Díaz. Thanks a lot Mr. Watson!
I can’t believe I found Your Music only today !?! Seriously you are such a gift into my Precious Life ! Your music is pure Art ! Divine Love and everything I ever wanted !! Thank you so much for your Talent , for your Soulful expression through Music !!! 💫💫🎆🎆🎆🎶🎶❤️👏👏
Sentada em um carro,em silêncio olhando a tarde chuvosa ,pela janela,mas minha alma está dançado imersa na beleza dos acordes e melodias e hipnotizada pela doçura desta voz....obrigada !
This musician is simply on another level. And how the entire world doesn’t know of him is a mystery to me.
jzoom45 Finland loves him, at least some people here🐰

Don't worry. From what I know, he has a beautiful career, acclaimed and touring almost everywhere in the world. This is truly a great artist. Cheers, from Montreal, Canada.
one of my most personal favorites, together with Thomas Feiner. Too Bad Many people don't know these two
this song reminds me of memories i don’t have
sehnsucht
cause you re a BOT
I thought the same like 1 month ago, I didn't know how to say it haha
Your past life perhaps
❤❤❤
Patrick Watson merece más reconocimiento, su música es arte.
THISS
total
Totalment.
Totalment!!!
Más reconocimiento merece la canción original de esta pieza
This is a version of the song "Tonada de Luna Llena", written and performed by the Venezuelan master Simón Diaz. Amazing and beautiful!
Estaba buscando éste comentario!, yo había escuchado el cover que hizo Natalia Lafourcade y la canción es preciosa
WOOOOOOOOOOW soy fan de ambas canciones desde hace mucho tiempo y no lo había notado! GRACIAS!!!
Pensé exactamente lo mismo, me llegó la voz de simón a la mente
There's also a cover from Caetano Veloso and Gilberto Gil
Check the original song out ua-cam.com/video/aJ5hf5aYiaU/v-deo.html
This song is a masterpiece. His voice brings music to another level.

Reminds me a little of Nick Drake although no one compares to the latter really- a genius gone too soon.
I never hear such shit before... except from drake and lil Wayne ,they should meet each other .
The original is even more special 🖤
@@pedroj.martia.3054 Gracias! I just heard the song today on Spotify, but I knew I'd heard the incredible melody before. Watson does a great job in his version. What a melody.
This song and the video are like a sweet dream,seen through your eyelashes...half reality half fantasy...
Love from Istanbul! ❣️
I live for patrick's music ! Just incredible

Just discovered Patrick Watson. Don’t know how I missed him! I used to be an avid Jeff Buckley fan and saw him live twice. This is just beautiful ❤️
More and more people need to hear this song! Cant believe it still doesnt have millions of views (October 2019)
this song is so unique to me, gets me everytime. in a week my dear boyfriend moves to another country. i have loved this song for a really long time and at the beginning of our relationship (he knew that i loved this song) one night we went to one of our first dates and he surprised me with a picnic by the sea with this song playing. and i couldn't find anything to say because i really valued this song. i just cried and kissed him. now it has been two years and we are getting into a long distance relationship. it is hard but when i listen to this it softens my heart.
Another classic from these very talented musicians.
Lyrics :
[Verse 1]
Tell me where the wind is blowing
'Cause that's where the music's going
You are my big dark blue
And I wanna swim all around you
You are the sweetest melody
I never sung
[Verse 2]
I feel like I know you but you're just a ghost to me
But when I sit beside your shadow somehow it comforts me
You are the sweetest melody
I never sung
[Chorus]
You are the island of love my remedy to rescue me
You are the breeze of a song that carries me
You are the sweetest melody
I never sung
La la la la la
[Verse 4]
I've got a hole the size of your touch that fits in your arms as much
And when I try to fill it up the hole gets bigger every time
You are the sweetest melody
I never sung
You are the sweetest melody
I never sung
[Chorus]
You are the island of love my remedy to rescue me
You are the breeze of a song that carries me
You are the sweetest melody
I never sung
[Verse 5]
Corta corta mi luna mi luna ya
Esta melodia que es la misma que...
A la misma que...

Mi Luna mi Luna llena.
Luna Tic's edit is right
Pateick watson build home
This song transports me to a place I'd like to go to, touches my soul. I get emotional each time I hear its first few notes.
It's not music, it's a work of art
So beautiful 🌸🌸
What a wonderful surprise to listen echoes of Simón Díaz's tonadas. He was one of the most representative compositor of Venezuelan music.
yeah I listened the similarities in the melody right away. Check tonada de la luna llena, if it was not a direct inspiration I would be surprised (of course here the chorus and many other things are different so I am not suggestin plagiarism or anything).
Neither me...
Lo mismo pensé! :)
OMG! Tengo días escuchando está canción pensando en que me recuerda a tonada de luna llena!
I'm lying in bed with bad pain, but music gives me goosebumps and brings me back to life🕊️
Eine wirklich wunderschöne ,sanfte Stimme!! Dann noch die Musik dazu---Bravo!😊
Sublime! Es la perfecta fusión entre melodías folklóricas latinoamericanas y música contemporánea, aunque con una nostalgia más intensa. Los arreglos y la musicalización son magistrales. Bravísimo!
Gonna protect this song always. It’s too precious
Patrick Watson!
You're the Man!!! 👏
my body is full of a perfect feeling every time i listen this song
My daughter and her voice has been my sweetest melodie. I miss her so much. 🥺

This deep lyrics are sliding through my soul
Thank you BBC Radio 6 for bringing me here. Fantastic song
this is the moment where artist must share this emotion just because it can explode inside himself.
The melody at 1:03 makes the world feel like a better place
Wunderschön gesungen!
Just heard this guy on CBC and I was like what I’ve never heard of him. He’s absolutely amazing.
La musique de Patrick fait rêver❤
Such a BEAUTIFUL melody and voice
