Lyrics:
Does he know
Who you are?
Does he laugh,
Just to know
What he has?
Does he know
Not to talk
About your dad?
Does he know when you're sad?
You don't like to be touched,
Let alone kissed
Does he know where your lips begin?
#KeatonHenson #YouDontKnowHowLuckyYouAre #Vevo
Makes me think of all the billions and billions of people who cried alone throughout history with no one to comfort them. :(
your thought made my day
How its like to be loved?
what the fuk is wrong with crying alone
oh god...how sad...
I once heard someone say "you don't know what kind of nights other people have", and your comment made me think of that. I don't think many people live out their lives to have never cried alone without anyone to comfort them. And we go through life never really knowing or necessarily being able to guess who out of the random people we interact with every day will go into a bedroom at night and cry because of all the pain.
It's interesting how a video of a woman staring off into the distance, can be so simple yet so extremely powerful. I kinda wonder what she was thinking about to be able to pull this off, all the emotion she was able to express.
Lost love after its gone....
She was thinking about Joel's death from TLOU 2
She was feeling the guilt of bullying Ben
She was waiting for Phil to come back, so she can burn him with a spoon for throwing her of onto that car on their wedding day.
@@mabeel99 thanks for spoiling that game twist then, bud!
There's sooo much emotion when he says: about your dad.
Unitato Potcorn that line gets me every time
I thoroughly concur - same with 'Do you know your lip shakes when you're mad?'
ursula pebble i feel he’s talking about me..this song and vid just can be anyone i know. However I had an ex drunkenly say some of these things to the new bf. especially “does he know not to talk about your dad? Does he know when your sad you don’t like to be touched let alone kissed..” aaah such a masterpiece
Exactlyy
Your Profil pic is the best :)
She's waiting for someone who won't ever come back.
Chi Nguyen you just read the story of my life.
She’s a mother from the coast of Hastings still waiting for her son who'd promised her that he'd return from a Napoleonic campaign in Brittany that'd been going on for years and halted and won over, but he never comes back, but she's always there no matter how cold and sharp the ocean winds are, gazing into the English Channel looking for a small sailing bark, looking all over everything, at the seas and the skies, facing at all things but the hard truth she can't bear, every day, every week, waiting until she too, like her son, withered and decayed, and her wait is finally over.
Raka Nanda please write this story!
we all are
God that is depressing!
that moment when you want to share this masterpiece with a friend you know will be able to appreciate the depth and meaningfulness of this, and realize you don't have such friends around.
Guilherme Noronha this.
Guilherme Noronha Would you like be my friend ?
Guilherme Noronha trueeeee so trueeee
bitter, Guilherme, but precise...
Guilherme Noronha you said it!
Whoever that woman is, she deserves an Oscar.
Right? She is Sophie Thompson, a British actress, and Emma Thompson's sister. While she had a smaller part, they were both in the Harry Potter movies! :-) Amazing acting in that family it seems.
4 minutes, all mesmerizing
Corley Stanford ikr
*Listen to 'Peacock Affect - I Wrote This In The Dark'*
James Collins You're a known legend on that video
what an actress,give her oscar
Her name is Sophie Thompson, she's Emma Thompson's sister. :)
seriously
+Sarah Merritt (Beth) My god, what a talented family.
I know, right? Her sister is one of my favourite woman in the whole wide world.
absolutely breath taking
I don't even think that she's acting. I think she's crying very real.
+Chris Derungs What's actually really amazing about acting is that there are two different kinds of emotional labor (making your body do what you want it to do on stage). One is external pulling, which is when you fake your emotions and force the tears on psychically, which there is nothing wrong with. But then there's internal pulling, which is when you take personal events in your life to bring the tears on or to make yourself angry (or anything that is needed on stage that you pull out of events in your own life). So sometimes it's fun to sit back and wonder which technique an actor is using on screen when you see them get teary eyed with sadness or red faced with anger.
That’s the thing about acting. When it’s good, it’s real
She is acting and crying very real.
@@cme9885 dude shut up...
She is acting. Forcing yourself to cry is act. Stop being dramatic.
Actually I think that this vid is sort of a blank canvas and you project your personal troubles/heart ache on it. I think that what you see in it says more about you than about the video
This is a fantastic comment
Magda Lena that's probably why I cry so much listening to this
Oh wow. That's deep
Bravo son! I thought that so.
like all sublime art :)
I know Keaton is a legend and all but... crying in front of a camera for four minutes is impressive as fuck. especially given that there was no music when it was being recorded, so she would have just been stood there in silence.
"especially given that there was no music when it was being recorded"
not to detract from her amazing performance AT ALL but there's nothing stopping them from having music while they recorded this video. There's nothing supporting saying that she wasn't listening to this song while they were filming
Oh snap what that's Keaton in drag?
Impromptu Paragraphs it's a kind of an emotion that he feels we should recognize by watching this video. besides, there is so much more than just "crying in front of a camera" in this video, it's on you to imagine the connection with the song, that's why it's art.
it is only my opinion, but i think you could understand better if you see someone else's perspective, cheers
I meant from an acting perspective, I understand that there is more to the video than just that.
i was just saying that she is hella talented.
Impromptu Paragraphs Maybe she has reason to cry.
I'm so happy they chose a woman who isn't super young for this. She's certainly, not old and very beautiful but you can tell her life hasn't been easy. In my opinion (whatever that's worth) It's from point of view of a woman who isn't 18 but not 75 either. Young enough to change her regrets but like someone said earlier, feels stuck at a crossroads. She grieves what could have been. Technically could probably still have it, but at a cost. That's why I think they chose well with this amazing actress.
It makes sense. We face mortality in our 40s(give or take) but still have a long life ahead. Simply beautiful.
Exactly.
Amazing the emotion she was able to convey in one shot. Keaton is brilliant & this video only enhances the beauty of his music.
Shes a British actress , in all sorts
@@puddles5247 She is Emma Thompsons sister Sophie, they are daughters of Phyllida Law.
Does he know who you are?
Does he laugh, just to know
What he has?
Does he know not to talk
About your dad?
Does he know when you're sad?
You don't like to be touched,
Let alone kissed.
Does he know where your lips begin?
Do you know who you are?
Do you laugh, just to think
What I lack?
Do you know your lip shakes
When you're mad?
And do you notice when you're sad?
You don't like to be touched,
Let alone kissed.
Does his love make your head spin?
i love people who post the lyrics
Those lyrics made me cry :'l
It's me right there.
Thank you
@@tachovendounicornio2918 uuugh!!
Damn...
Actress is 'Sophie Thompson' for those wondering.
Thank you
Yeah she played Stella in Eastenders
Yes, but I haven't seen this film. Do you know the title?
kao she’s now in a new netflix series called Feel Good
She's Emma Thompson's sister
you must be a great actress to hold the whole scene like that
You bet. It is a mistery to me how a human being can force himself to cry like that. For me it's like trying to force a sweat...Amazing.
Rui Alexandre when I cut onion, I'm such a great actor :)
Rui Alexandre Real and true acting isn't forcing anything. Acting is feeling. Acting is reacting. (:
@@ruialexandre6197 not necessarily. You just have to really connect with the feeling that is being portrayed. In which then the actor can relate that to something in their life and get emotional from
@@crypandora66 yes and through the connection some actors go crazy because they played to many roles and dont know who they are or are into it too much and go depressed or crazy like their role
this is pure fucking gold.
i couldn't have said better myself
no is isn't. what the fck ar ya doing ? leave us alone . leave alone .
This actress is amazing... I don't know if you guys know this but it is hard to be emotional in front of a camera, and sustain it for so long. I've done a work shop on acting in front of a camera and I can tell you from experience that it is difficult. I'm in awe of this woman.
She looks like Sophie Thompson. Not sure if it actually is her, but from what I've seen she really is a fantastic actress so it wouldn't be surprising if she could pull this off.
R Rnn It's Sophie Thompson and she's a great actress!
How on earth WOULD we know that?
TJ Connell Yeah, sorry I phrased it badly, I meant if you knew that it's hard to be emotional in front of a camera, not if you knew that I had done the acting workshop :') I edited it so it makes more sense. Sorry for the confusion mate :)
***** You're a pain in the ass, you recommend them constantly, fuck off.
This reminds me so much of Jane Eyre, the part where she is alone on the moor and wanting to be with Mr Rochester but knowing that she can't have him. The video is as truly beautiful as the song.
Oh my God ! So true !! It gave me goosebumps!
Spot on! It’s been years since I’ve actually read it but I think of this occasionally when I ponder my own impossible love story...
Yes :(
Omg yesssss
Yes ! I am reading Jane Eyre right now and it made me think of this video so here I am, in a very victorian mood
I´ve lost count of how many times I´ve listened to this song, but I have to choose carefully when I´ll do it, because I always cry while listening to it. It´s like one of the most bittersweet musical experiencies I´ve ever had.
and if you look at the video you have no chance not to cry :(
SpaceWaifuu that's beautiful
@@CaBona i thought that too but i just watched it again and for the first time I didn't cry . perhaps im in a better spot in life, ive been so depressed for years and everytime id listen to this i would bawl but i can honestly say im happy in life and i nearly cried at the end but i wasnt even trying not to cry . still love this and keaton so beautiful yet heartbreaking
@OddBox Gaming I'm a girl dude
Same
It's ridiculous how much emotion can be expressed in a four-minute close-up of a woman desperate for the return of someone who's never coming back.
Absolutely brilliant and heartbreaking at once.
This is really weird, but I used to sing this allot and do my own version of it when I got over this girl. And it was only after that I found out she was adopted and the lyrics "Does he know not to talk about your Dad?" have come back and haunted me.
Exact same line that messed me up, too. People who don't get that, can't be explained. I already posted it so I won't babble on about that line undoing a decade of feelings. I get it. Thanks for sharing, too.
+Peacock Affect I am right there with you boys, stay strong.
+Peacock Affect hey, I LOVE YOU
+Peacock Affect Bro love to you Mr Peacock
+ourWorld Danielle But you just met him in the comments! I can't approve of this marriage, I'm putting my foot down Danielle.
It is like she's waiting on him, but deep down she knows he's not coming back for her. and she keeps his hope for so long but eventually gives up.
Sad and beautiful thing..
This is the probably the most self-defeating track on the whole album. It kills me in almost every way possible.
If anyone is curious the literal meaning of the lyric "Does he know not to talk about your dad?" refers to Keaton's Ex Soko (Who is a musician who wrote a song called "Keaton's Song"). Well either way her father had died and she had a strong bond with him.
that just makes the song that much more powerful in my opinion
Bridger this has just made this song more meaningful to me so thank you for this!
Thank you so much for that.
Bridger listen to her i ve been alone for too long and we might be dead tomorrow
Thank you for sharing this, it adds more to my personal experience
My personal interpretation of the song lyrics and video is that the woman was a widow but is in a new relationship now, however her partner does not truly know her and make her happy. I think her dad may have mistreated her or left her, and she never got over it, which is why she may struggle to trust, be touched and have personal relationships. Also, at the level of sorrow she is at now, romance is almost intolerable and she can not express herself. The man she is with now doesn't know who she truly is and therefore she is herself slowly forgetting and losing who she is. The woman has now become numb to her emotions and lost who she is due to the act she has to constantly put on and being misunderstood. The woman has been in a state of inner loneliness and depression for so long that she does not realise when she is sad or mad because she has become too used to it. The title is what the woman is thinking when she thinks about the peace her ex has found. The woman is crying in an empty field staring into the distance because it is the first time in a while that she has felt 'serene' enough to recognise what has happened to herself and her life. I chose the word 'serene' because it relates to a feeling of peacefulness and an expanse of clear sky, which is what the woman is mesmerized by. The woman is remebering and reminiscing over memories, viewing both the happy and the sad which is why she is crying but smiling at the same time, because she remembers what her life used to be. I think the woman is wearing that outfit because it was probably from a time when women needed to be with a man, or would suffer from poverty or homelessness. Which links to my final point, that the woman breaks down during the line "does his love make your head spin?" because the harsh reality has hit her that she shouldn't be with him, yet she knows she will struggle to survive without him. I'm probably wrong, but that's ok because this is a work of art, and art is down to interpretation.
This is why I study English lit and language
veno mh beautiful interpretation

jess s Thank you
veno mh wow
Patiently waiting for you
Waiting for you to come
To wipe all my tears
To eradicate all my sadness
And free me from all the agony
That has been haunting me everyday
Patiently waiting for you
Waiting for you to come...
I'm not a "crier" but I married a good guy ten years ago. I broke up with THE guy who (as lyrics say) "Not to talk about my dad" "I don't like to be touched" So, now I'm stuck. I have a young child who keeps me going. For that I'm grateful. She's a gift. This song dislodged the feelings I held in for a very long time. I'm married to a guy who cares about a career. Tells me what a POS my dad is when I call him. And could not care less if I want to be touched or kissed. He earns a living. I'm stuck. I'm not old but I'm not 20 anymore either. That's just my personal translation of this song. Not to bore you guys or anything. Just appreciative someone wrote what I couldn't say all this time.
+Absentee Childhood Set yourself free sweetheart. Sometimes the hardest decisions are the ones we need to make the most! You're never alone!
You will be fine and happy and will fulfill all your dreams eventually. Your daughter will prosper with time and make you feel proud of her and she will also be very proud for having such a strong beautiful mother. All the good wishes for you and your daughter..🌸
i'm single.

Who you are?
Does he laugh,
Just to know
What he has?
Does he know
Not to talk
About your dad?
Does he know when you're sad?
You don't like to be touched,

Does he know where your lips begin?

Do you laugh
Just to think
What I like?
Do you know
Your lip shakes
When you're mad?
Do you notice when you're sad?
You don't like to be touched,
Let alone kissed
Does his love make your head spin?
Does his love make your head spin?
Does his love make your head spin?
Something about the dull, dead harmonic at 0:29 that is so perfect. It interrupts the easiness of listening to the intro, so that you have a heightened awareness of the human being behind the guitar. I mean, I know he's a talented musician and composer, but that "missed" note gives you the feeling of being at a children's concert where you're constantly on edge, hoping for every strum or keystroke to be successful. Every "hit" note, then, is more meaningful, because it is attached to a person with the potential for failure as well as success. It opens you up to the sensitive kernel in the middle of every calloused personality, and reminds you that even a "hard" person is really just a scared child. Genius.
+shotinthedark90 now THAT's analysis
Who else cried?
Janai Gadson Everytime...
+Janai Gadson At this song it's just way too hard hold back tears...
+Janai Gadson me :(
+Janai Gadson only song that has legit made me cry
+Janai Gadson ME.
Going through a difficult break up, listening to this while sitting outside, the wind is blowing & I'm drinking hot tea. The cold wind does not give me shivers but this song does. And that's the most emotion I have felt in these past 4 days other than chronic emptiness.
Paloma Galindoo wow...
It's been five years now, I hope you are in a better place in life.
What never ceases to amaze me is how her emotions transition from a sense of hope in the beginning to a sense of complete loss at the end. It's absolutely amazing how accurately shes able to capture what a lot of us feel at some point in our lives. Looking at a situation we know is doomed but as naive as we are try to be hopeful and the more time goes one the more we realise we were right and it was never meant to be.
What I see in her face: she's trying to remind herself of all the good things in her life, things she should be grateful for. She's reminding herself that she's strong and that she'll survive this because she's made it this far. But still, she's getting crushed by the weight of her world. It's the internal battle of trying to keep our head above water while you're chained to a boulder.
Wait, I feel like that got too personal...
Anyone listening to this with me nowadays.
She could be a widow mossing her husband , she could be a mother waiting for her lost child to come back, she could be a woman who never got the love she wanted, loved the way how the spectators get to project their own interpretation of the song and the video .
How, Keaton Henson, HOW. I've searched for and watched every music video of his within the past 12 hours. How does he convey these messages so thoroughly?
I read of a quote of his once
"I think a lot of art is trying to make someone love you"
less is more...definitely, such a simple scene, makes something so special
Rachel Wynder same here. ive been listening and sobbing and listening again. he's pure magic.
Rachel Wynder you is beauty.
This song hits deep in heart. When you feel like you're facing this journey alone..no lover,no good friends.,just a imaginary thoughts and dissapointments but don't care abput them keep going..one day you'll meet the the best person you never thought of..keep going.
and this song is feels like so relatable and making me goosebumps when he says does he know? tysm for this masterpiece.
“Every society honors its live conformists and its dead troublemakers”

Whos that
Some of the best acting ever.
but its a modern day video and she is wearing clothes fashioning past tense putting her into a role. Personal experiences are summoned with emotional memory- an acting process being this character's inner stimulant for the visual pain fitting in with this beaut song.

Lauren Coomber ***** It simply can't be pure acting, its way too powerful x
I just felt my soul in my chest, my god.
It’s interesting that people’s comments , and mine is this beautiful woman finally know what she wants in her life, and not all people do, how lucky is she.
she's waiting on something that's not coming back. . like me. :(
Keaton Henson. you're so incredible. thank you so much for making amazing music. . dont know what i'd do without it. .
she's waiting on something that's not coming back. like me :(
Arent we all ? *sigh*
Diana DiNatale I'd come back to you Diana X
I think she's not waiting for any one, actually she's tired of someone! Well for me, she's tired of her monster and insensitive husband, that doesn't know nothing at all about her, and always try to bring her down, because of her age, apperance... I think the clip just trying to pick up a world of a thousand and thousand women's who just live in misery marriage. When the singer says in the song: You don't like to be touched, Let alone kissed. His was just trying to show us how tired and disgusted of a convenient marriage can be. Well I dont know, the only thing I can be sure is, the clip, the music, the melody, the lady, it's just one of the most beautiful thing I've ever saw in my entire tiny life!
wow; that actually is what it seems like as well. and i agree it is very beautiful!
the line „not to talk about your dad” hits me so hard every time. my family is once again at a point where we just don’t speak about my dad at home, we cant, really, and saying that i’m going to see him always makes me feel guilty, like admitting to something i shouldn’t be doing.
the line delivery is so powerful, it’s like the suffocating, void feeling i feel after seeing him has obtained a voice and is speaking to me.
My God what a moving beautiful song and video! I just want to hug her. I've seen the same look in my mother's eyes so, so many times. It's the look of the realization that there really is nothing left. I've stood and cried with her. My father's a monster. As God as my witness if I ever marry I will NEVER treat my wife as he has treated my mother!!!!

oh god ... as they showed her face i strated crying so much, she reminds me of my mum, my sad mum, who feels so alone and she waiting for someone to come to her life, to save her soul :( love you mommy, wish u all the best
I kissed my (now boyfriend) for the first time to this song. It's funny because I was so distracted I didn't notice the song was playing until later he showed me it. It's a really beautiful song and I'm really glad that it was apart of a really special moment in my life. We didn't know what was going to happen at all and it was funny how taken a back we both were when we kissed because it was an instant, beautiful, connection.
To the person who read this,
It’s been hard for you, I know, and it makes me sad that you don’t see yourself in the way I see you. Sometimes they are things in life that cause us to loose ourselves, and the way you have is so unimaginable painful. I miss your smile, the way your eyes light up the whole room just by the sound of your laughter. I miss the way you accepted the way you look in the mirror without cursing yourself out about how ugly you look. I miss the way you didn’t think of yourself as a failure because everyone makes mistakes, we all have flaws and we all aren’t perfect. It’s painful to see that no one around you seems to see the pain trough your eyes, but, stranger, I do, I see how heavy your heart is and how comforting the sadness for you might be, how afraid your heart is of happiness because it disappears in the end, right? You don’t know how much impact you have in this world and it’s sad to see that your demons fight against you and want to take over you. Because you do make change, it’s something so simple and little that brightens up someone’s whole world, it can be a small smile from your lips, the way you look at things you’re passionate about, the way you make yourself eat even though it’s been hard for you lately, the way you zoom out and go in your own world, you brighten up my world by reading this, it means a lot to me that you’re here, existing, but I don’t want you to just exist, you deserve to feel alive. You deserve to get up in the morning and feel good about yourself. You deserve to feel something- to feel every damn second alive in this lifetime. It’s heartbreaking that you think you’re not capable of being loved, because you are, I love you trough all my words and I hope you let it happen in your heart. Love is scary, I know, maybe you heart had been broken once and since then you wanted to be rather numb than feel ever again, it hurts me how you punish yourself, does it not deserve love? Because YOU DO deserve love, please forgive yourself, it’s not your fault that the demons want to take over your beautiful heart. You’re not a bad person for distancing yourself from others, but you deserve someone to talk to, you deserve someone to listen. I am listening, you can tell me what’s wrong. It’s everything, isn’t it? There’s something pulling your heartstrings on the ground and no one seems to understand how misunderstood you feel, it’s heartbreaking to know that I am behind the screen and can’t give you a hug, that’s why I will give you a big warm virtual hug and send you lots of love :). You matter. You are worthy. You are loved. You deserve good things. You deserve someone to listen. You deserve to eat and drink. You deserve to feel good and alive. You deserve to smile. You deserve a hug. You deserve to be all the things you want to be, because you deserve to have and feel good things happening to you and have a fulfilled life. I know I might not know you personally but I care about you so much, I write this because I want you to stay here with me, I want you to hold on a little longer because you matter so much to me, because I will not let you give up on yourself. I want you to see that you should not give up on yourself because you DESERVE GOOD THINGS. I want you to look back on the time when you were a kid, you didn’t give up when you tried to swim for the first time, you didn’t give up when you tired to walk for the first time and fell, you never gave up on yourself, you always kept on pushing forwards, so why can’t you now? I know it’s tiring, your mentally tired, but dont your younger self deserve good things? look back at your eyes that used to be full of hope, look back on those dreams. Don’t let yourself fall, you deserve better. We will both fight, I will fight for you. I won’t let those demons get to you. You can hold on to me, I won’t let you down :). Whenever you feel lonely, then look at the sky, I always look at it and think about you. Yes, you, because it makes me happy that there’s someone looking right back, maybe we can’t see each other but I can feel your presence here with me and that’s enough for me, because I am glad your heart is beating and you’re still fighting. You’re so much stronger thank you think, you didn’t leave your spot on this earth even if you wanted to, you belong here, even though it doesn’t feel like it, when you don’t feel like belonging than build your own home here, put all your love in it and dreams. Think of you as a star when you feel alone, you shine because your heart is good, no matter what mistake you made, no matter about the past you had, you’re one of the stars that shine bright in the universe because you’re heart is beautiful, that’s why the demons in your mind wants to have it. As one of the stars you see others stars, maybe they have felt the same way as you do at some point in there life, but they lighten up the universe with each other’s presence. You’re a star for me, maybe you don’t see it yourself but I can see it, you’re beautiful from inside and out, your body is beautiful the way it is. You make me happy by reading this, you make me feel something by your presence and when you can make me feel that way than you also make other people feel that way about you too. I hope you stay for yourself and don’t let your story get written by others but by yourself, it’s your story not theirs. As you can see, I say a lot of “I hope” because I have hope for you even if you don’t have it for yourself, I see hope in you even though you might want to give up. That’s why I hope you won’t see the world in darkness and will see it colorful again, I hope I will give you a glimpse of hope and make the world you see a bit colorful for today. My favorite color is yellow, and I hope the next time you see the color yellow you will think about my words. If someone left you than don’t blame yourself, don’t think you weren’t enough, don’t lower yourself for someone who couldn’t see the awesomeness in you. If you lost someone I am so sorry for your loss, they want you happy, I hope you don’t feel guilty or regret because you were there, you spend enough time with them, they want you to be happy. They are in a good and safe place now. If someone broke your heart than I am so sorry that they couldn’t see the way you look so beautiful because of the heart you have. Anyone who gets to be with you, doesn’t know how fucking lucky he/ she/ they is :). If you aren’t accepted at home or in general than I am so sorry that you have to deal with someone/ something you shouldn’t be ashamed of, I accept you and support you, I accept you as a human being no matter what race, religion, nationality, skin color, or sexuality you have. You’re safe here with me :). You’re not useless, you’re not a burden to anyone. You’re not a problem, you’re human and your feelings are valid. You’re not being dramatic. Please don’t starve yourself, you deserve food and to drink, I know it’s hard. It hurts to see that you’re in so much pain :( you deserve so much man, don’t let your emotions control you. Don’t let them get the best of you. I am sorry no one is noticing, I wish /hope I could take your pain away for today or even for a moment while you’re reading this. If no one told you, I am so proud of you, you’re reading this and it’s enough for me to be proud of you because you’re here and that’s all that matters to me. If it’s night for you, go to sleep, I know it’s hard to fall asleep right now but you deserve a good sleep. If you have nightmares, please, don’t let them fight you. If it’s day for you, don’t start it by such sad music, I know it’s impossible to have a good day with such mindset but take baby steps, start by drinking two cups of water everyday in the morning and so on.. You will start building little healthy habits. If it’s evening for you, you’re probably overwhelmed and stressed, I want you to know it’s okay to feel the way you feel. You don’t need to be scared, of course you’re overwhelmed or stressed, I mean who wouldn’t? But it’s important to know that when you feel that way you should do a little self care, such as taking a bath for example? You deserve to feel at ease and relaxed.
And if you are somewhere in between I hope you know that you’re so strong for breathing despite the pain, I know you will make it :) I believe in you. All I want for you is to stay here, I really mean all my words, even if there is a lot of unsaid things I want to tell u and my text is getting longer and longer,I want you here.
I hope one day your smile will become a genuine one where you don’t need to fake it anymore, because I can’t say this enough, you deserve a good smile and to feel alive. You’re worth more than every fucking cent in this world.
You can let go for today, I got you, you can cry your heart out as much as you want, but don’t let it tear you down and let your emotions control you by giving up. Crying is not weakness. If you still feel alone I dedicate you a song as your friend.
“Dusk till Dawn- Zayn feat. Sia (I prefer the slow version)” I hope you can think of me and will remind yourself of my words, I will for sure think of you.
In case no one told you and you’re unsure yourself, you’re a good person and I am so happy you’re here.
I hope this is enough to stay today, tomorrow will be a new day, a new start, let go now. Enough with beating yourself up for today, okay?
Life for those who couldn’t, smile for those who forgot what a genuine smile is, love like there’s no other, hug like its your last one.
If you read all of it, until tomorrow my friend :)
have a good day and great years.
I love you so much and am so proud of you, I hope you will remember my words- becho, the stranger that cares more about you than anything :)))
May God bless you and whoever reads this
Thank you so much :) I hope you also feel this way about yourself! Have a good day, stranger! :)
🥺🌻
this video is an actual representation of realizing something is over. you deny that it's even real, then you slowly realize it's true and the feeling of absence slowly creeps up on you until you're in complete tears
I would like to give a serious shout out to the woman in this video because to maintain such raw emotion for that long while also having a progression from keeping it together well to breaking a little to giving it all out at the end, plus keeping it interesting and never breaking character, as well as other things, is SO SO hard. It was a beautiful video and a beautiful song. Wonderful job.
so simple and yet it's so moving and sad.
sometimes, at moments like these, ambiguity and vagueness exceeds detail
I was waiting for this song to explode, but it stayed true to the lyrics by just remaining as silent as it could be. Those are the emotions this song talk about I think. Trying to say something but at the end you keep it to yourself. Beautiful.
I only knew Keaton's 'You' for a long time. I have just this hour discovered this and somehow it surpasses even the masterpiece of 'You'. He simply does not hold back. You can hear the emotion, it is REAL emotion. 'Does he know not to talk about your Dad?' 'Do you know who you are?' 'Do you know that your lip shakes when you're mad?' This evokes in me the deepest-rooted of my insecurities, and the thought of the girl who wanders London who will one day end up being mine, neither of us yet knowing it, and then I'll fuck it up like I always do. She'll get with a real man who can handle his anxieties and think of me fondly but with only a pleasant nostalgia, not a deeper yearning. Keaton is a beautiful human being and I wish to someday bump into him on the leafy streets of London.
This song will find you when you need it the most ❤
Henson's work to me can only be described as 'beautifully tragic'. His lyrics hold the kind of sorrow in them that makes, for example, this particular song, engage you in life's faults. The woman here is living this state of affliction that is gloriously anguishing. It represents that one state of oblivion in which everyone so dearly tries to avoid, she not only believes this other person does not know who she is, but she, herself; she does not truly know her own personage, her own soul. Her standing alone in such a vast space symbolizes the seclusion and loneliness that is created with a life lived with no love of oneself or others. Love is selfish, but once found, it is the most gratifying thing of all.
well said :)
Thank you :D
:)
That is a possible interpretation but it's also a great example of how art critics will often create a lot from things which aren't necessarily there.
euheide I agree euheide :)
there must be some deep things going through her mind to cry four minutes and dont stop
This song is beyond devastating. It's so sorrowful and heartbreaking, yet beautiful. And such a great, simple and effective music video. It's been such a comfort to me during this particular period of terrible depression, loneliness and anxiety that I'm currently going through...along with the works of Mark Kozelek and Ali Murray - two incredible songwriters that I'd highly recommend you check out if you like this kind of melancholic loner music.
One has departed. One is left behind. Her love breaks her heart. Her love binds her heart and holds it whole. Any other details are trivial. This thing is what you have seen.
I really a appreciate the minimalistic style of his music videos. It focuses on the music and lyrics rather than how some other videos are like watching a movie. This is how music videos are supposed be,all about the music. I feel like he portrays the story in his lyrics but shows emotions through the actors faces and actions. Its really beautiful.
WOW!!!! Sophie Thompson’s performance is sublime.💕💕
Absolutely beautiful xxxx
I know I'm not the only one who can relate to this song..
But sometimes it feels like it is my unspoken words reaching the surface to cry..
I had a dream come true once, and it kissed my lips..
And now that dream belongs to someone else...
I'm happy for them, I really am.. I just wish I could be that lucky.. Again...
Erik Ahl YES! i know this feeling!
I liked your profile picture so much. It can be weird to hear that, but its the only true. Is it a clown?
@@thiagoandrade2540 Oh wow, thank you! It is actually a portrait of me in the style of Tove Jansson that I got from a friend. I'm glad you like it.
Those are the words of a wise man. I'm not a romantic myself, I'm more on the realist side but I still find meaning and sometimes even joy out of romanticism. I feel like only an artist could ever define what love is.
@@phovius2280 do u think that first love can be forgoten someday
Sophie Thompson deserves much more recognition
... beautiful song!! love this
WHO IS THIS ACTRESS THIS IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING SHE LOOKS VERY SAD AND ITS MAKING ME SAD THIS WOMAN DESERVES AN AWARD
its like she staring into the deepest of despair and when she falls to her knees it is because there is no where else to go.
It hurts when you left your partner. It is kind of person's death which you loved and who loved you
After 11 years this masterpiece came to me
whoever reading this: u have a very good taste in music
I was searching through my subscribers list and i've stumbled upon this profile. Out of curiosity I clicked on the profile and coincidentally found this gem again. I remember that I used to play it on repeat when I was younger and how touching this video was, this women gave me the same feeling that I used to feel back then. I cant believe how fast 10 years have passed by.
One of the more subtle and profound things about this video is the camera movement. It starts focused on her wringing her hands, conveying tension. Then the camera moves away, slow and continuous... making the scene more distant, more empty, and more lonely with each moment.
You should be able to like a video every time you watch/listen to it. If we were, this and most of Keaton's likes would explode exponentially.
I see all the different comments on here about what the song is trying to say. The most beautiful thing about art is that the meaning is yours to find for yourself. Everyones perception is different so everyones version will be different but true to them. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
Sobbed when I first heard this few years ago. Sobbed again. Everything about this is art
If you're alone, truly alone take time to focus on what can be. Not what could have.
kills me every single time.
These are the kinds of emotions you can't put into words
This song reminds me of my mother and father's relationship. She has grown apart from him, but I can't imagine either of them growing old with anyone else but each other. And when I picture her ever falling in love with someone else, that man will never love her like my dad did. Every lyric fits perfectly with how my father would feel if she found someone new...
Mak Attack I don't think you can dedicate a song you haven't written/performed to anyone. Write your parents a damn song ya slack fuck.
Poo crumbleking Thank you :) have a nice day!
The moment she fell on her knees... my heart fell to the bottom of the well.
Oscar to the person who had this idea to make the camera move that way. Very expressing.
UA-cam just got me here and I can't stop listening and watching.
I can't help but cry when I watch this video. She is incredible.
I cry every time. I come here to watch the beautiful performance of both Keaton and this woman. This is something absolutely worth crying to.
I didn't feel lucky until God told me he'd always be with me. He is for you.
Love how everyone here seems to actually get this song and appreciates it(:
I feel like my life is slipping away, and everytime this plays i can only cry harder
This song used to remind me of my ex. And while I'm not 100% over her, things have gotten so much better since she stepped out of my life for her ex. I feel happier. I feel genuinely like a good person. Sometimes we over look all the bad things in a person and we keep them in our lives because we feel like they're our oxygen and that we won't survive without them. But in the long run, despite all the pain that cutting them off is going to put you through, you need to do it in order to you to truly be happy.
It feels like she’s a woman from early 1900s or late 1800s. Her lover has gone to war and either she he got the message of his demise or is just waiting endlessly for his return.
In both the cases the song and the acting settles like honey in a jar at the bottom of my heart
He doesn't know anything. He just doesn't care about me. But I care and worry about him constantly. I know a lot about him. I even know who he cares deeply. And I don't wanna carry this feeling anymore.
this video is unbearable.
So simple but yet so beautiful.
shit... the lyrics of this really got me
She crushes my soul with those tears
This music helps me to evade from this life.
Im bedridden 23/7 since 2 years and an half with the most painful disease ever known to humankind..more painful than cancer pain, fibromialgia, labor, more painful than getting amputated of a finger without any medication. There's no cure at all. I cant walk since that long. I cant put my feet on the ground. Wheelchair bounded. Also had a machine feeding me through a tube in my belly for 3 years night and day just before that. I had 12 pancreatitis and almost died every time. It started when I turned 16 yo. In a year, I had to stay 8 months at the hospital. Im 30. Im still living with my mom. Also had a toxic and very abusive relationship that lasted 3 years with a guy. Well, he broke up with me for my birthday..he used to laugh when I cried sometimes. Careless and mean.I got an injury to left arm and i cant move at all. I can only type with one hand in bed bed under my blankets.. my dad is going in a desintox center and i have no new from him i never see him either he doesnt call nor come and see me. I will probably have to get amputated soon. I can never work or study again. Doctors said i wont walk and the disease will spread in my whole body. I have around 55 pills to take in a day...I still suffer alot. I just sleep and cant go outside. I have no friends and nobody care. My doctor dropped the case since theres nothing to do. The only person who could understand me was a good friend but he died... and sometimes i dont have enough money and I just cant eat....have crutches since 2 years but cant use them since 2 weeks because of my injuried arm. I also had to get a surgery not long ago for another thing. I cant cook, cant wash dishes or my clothes and cant go out of the house without help its only my mom who helps i habe nobosy else. And its always painful and hard so. CRPS aka suicide disease because many people commit suicide with that amount of pain and no hope of recovering. I try to not give up.
Thanks for reading ❤
This song shakes me to the core every time I hear it. I love reading the comments of people who view the lyrics and video as subjective and I agree. But I’ve always felt so closed off from love because of my dad’s death. I’ve felt like no one has ever known me as he did and no one ever will. This song moves me everytime I hear that “about your dad” line. I wish he was still here but I thank the universe that I have Keaton Henson’s music: so beautiful and important.
Even though its sad, I want Keaton to know he's finally made me FEEL again! Wow. Music today that actually makes me feel... Thats rare. So even though what it makes me feel is sad, Im GLAD it makes me finally feel something again.
Back 3 years later. Brought me tears.
imagine youre a homesteader. it's the later half of the 1800s and youre in a strange place. a dangerous place. and you don't know anyone. its just you and your family and you packed up everything you have to move west. and youre standing on the hills that will be your familys home for years to come. and youre scared. and youre helpless. but youre hopeful. and you have faith in your future.
imagine.
imagine experiencing something you will never know but so many thousands experienced.
This lovely actress was in Persuasion (1995)!! The best adaption lol. Love her! You go Sophie Thompson!
Я впервые после стольких лет под впечатлением от песен и музыки, давно искал в себе силы послушать что-то новое для себя. И вот - прекрасный исполнитель))))))
I've never stared so intently at a music video before. In those four minutes, nothing mattered but what was before me, and what I was listening to
She reminded me, of myself.
I had the same look and feeling when I seen my mom casket go down into the ground.
I found myself alone, while everybody left. I couldn't bare myself to leave her.
I haven't seen her, because I'm afriad I won't leave her side. Even if she just bones by now.. I want our bones to touch, I miss her love.. mom, I miss you 🥺😭
those eyes man
Love this actress! Her name is Sophie Thompson.
The lady who gives such a poignant performance in this film is Sophie Thompson. She has starred in the comedy show The Detectorists and has also been in EastEnders and Coronation Street, as well as being an award winning star of the theatre too. What an amazing actress.
You don't know what you have, until it's gone. That is the realest thing i've ever heard and this song, i feel, is signifying that.
this song is insanely beautiful but can we just talk about this actress, shes incredible, every word that was said she portrayed amazingly.
