Oh my 😢 as someone who spent almost twenty years trying to have a child and never succeeded, this absolutely broke me. Beautiful, thank you.
😔🫂❤
I wanted to keep a baby conceived but couldn't. The pain never leaves. I'd worked with kids in care to somehow try save others
Since 2006 my brother introduce me to James Blunt up untill now you are still singing a reality song, a true song. I salute, you are talented.
🫂
Same. Been there, done that (or never done actually...)
This just finished me off. Absolutely beautiful. Sending love to everyone struggling with baby loss or childlessness.
Finally the old James back with a beautiful song. Not the drum tuc tuc song but the old good guitar and James. Thank you and welcome back.
Honestly he's too good for the charts isn't he. Always number one in my eyes.
And as someone who experienced a pregnancy loss this is even more powerful.
Sublime as always. Loved it ❤
I never thought another song would come along that could make me cry like Monsters. This is so beautifully written and performed.
My wife and daughters have lost a combined 8 pregnancies. I was always the stoic supportive one. I've never cried over them until now. Now I cry for these beautiful women in my life. James Blunt can express things so powerfully and beautifully.
I'm so sorry for your losses and I'm happy for your wife and daughters to have such a powerful man in their lives. I'm glad you could finally cry, we, men, we also sometimes need to cry.
💔🙏💔🙏
You’re an amazing man. Please remember you don’t always have to be strong. You are human.
@@claireymac2666 Thank you.
Beautiful song, James. If it is based on personal experience, my condolences to you and your wife.
That's what I want to say to Mr. James ... And his wife.. May God bless them
James Blunt has a son. It's a beautiful song but with a fictional story, when it comes to Mr Blunt.
@@jcvax2939 James Blunt has 2 sons, but that doesn't necessarily mean that his wife only had 2 pregnancies.
And he obviously sang about a girl that never was😢
So sad 🙏🏿 💔
James Blunt is one of the most underrated singer and song writer, this song is more moving than “Monsters”. The words tell you a story of heartbreak to write a song so personal, I have tears running down my face listening to this song. Just amazing 🌹♥️🌹
Loved Monsters, but this is my second favorite song now😭
@debbiecook3964. He is a really talented artist, how long have you been a fan of his?
@@Jason_nolan223 my husband and I have been fans for 20 years, right from the start of his career and seen 14 times in concert.
@@debbiecook3964 that’s nice am from turkey by the way what about you? Just making conversation no intentions on wooing you lol
O
And to think some people say they don't make good music any longer. Seems like pain and challenges evokes the true genius in a artist. What a beautiful, beautiful magical tragic, heartfelt song. ❤
That's why I Love JB..👌
I share your thought
I think this is one of the most beautiful songs in the history of music. 🙏
I agree.
My best friend just lost her 3 year old daughter last month after a 20 month battle with cancer. This song makes me cry every time, so sad so beautiful. The chorus really hits home, Tori is now dancing somewhere with her blond hair. Thanks for always writing lovely, emotional music!
Pozdrawiamy z Gdynia Marina, kto słucha w 2023 ❤️
Thanks for using your platform to help people
James blunt to the world
🇰🇪 loves you
From someone who is currently living this reality after losing our beautiful twin girls in June of this year the words in this song hit so close to home and sums up perfectly our thoughts.
May God give you the necessary strength, sufficient spiritual peace and the exact light to go through that unquantifiable pain and be able to overcome the emptiness and sadness. Every word that exists is useless and there is no balm that calms the restlessness, the pain and the sarrow. I know that. Nothing in this world can fill that void either, but although I don't know you, I wish you to obtain strength from where there is none and that love covers you to be able to face misfortune. May the light bless you.
There are no words to express the pain and sorrow. This song touched my heart. I hope that you find peace in your heart and soul. The journey’s a difficult one, but you will not ever be alone. I joined the family of bereaved parents in 1984, and then lost my 20 year old daughter in 1998. On the darkest days, reach out, there are so many who are going through this grief and loss. An online support group saved my life and what little sanity I have left. God bless you❤ Brenda
No words to come close to the physical pain of loss. With love from someone who knows.
❤
I’m so sorry x
James blunt is just different..His music is not defined by chartbusters, collections, rankings etc.
It's a different world, different dimension that is so far in memory, yet so close to the human soul.
Just breathtaking...Monsters previously, & now this .. ❤
My heart is totally heartbroken 💔 hearing your beautiful voice singing so eloquently about our little girl who also didn’t make it. 😢
🙏💔🙏💔
Didn't expect to be crying at midday. This hits deep
Three years ago today we announced a pregnancy that didn’t last. This song randomly came up on my playlist. Thank you for giving voice to that grief, the dream, the reality of a partner helping someone through that grief. It helps to continue to destigmatize these types of conversations. ❤❤❤
I love this song. We were adopting a baby girl from India, we named her and they canceled it. A year later that baby came from Korea and as broken hearted as I was when we lost the first one I knew we got the right one.
James you have two sons so this could be from your experience. We had 3 children first and we had to sell our home to complete our family. There is no difference where a baby comes from and you would not have had to sell your home. Trust me, we helped raise 50 of them.
Oh my heart 💔. It’s been over 20 years, and I still think about her…..maybe she is somewhere dancing with her blonde hair. 😢
😔🫂❤️
💔🙏😢
You are strong. And whenever you feel low, you can cry. It'll be alright. Now James Blunt himself understands you. This song is a true blessing.
Hugx 😢
@@AmandJb ..thank-you 🥹
Ugh James. This is the first time I thought of you as a grief-singer-counsellor. So helpful for those who have such full hearts that need to spill over, and a musical shoulder to lean on.
Just heard this on the radio. We lost our daughter this July. She had blond hair blue eyes. Winnie I know you are in a better place now away from the pain and suffering. One day we'll be together again. Mr Blunt.... Thank you for this beautiful song ❤
My heart breaks for you I've lost a daughter and son Yr half apart a lot older than your angel life is so cruel x
@@BrendaDrumm I'm sorry for your loss, Only someone who has experienced such grief can understand the feeling. I'm lucky enough to have to older sons. They keep me busy and on my toes. My daughter passed away in my arms, Now she's in the arms of the angels.
What a song. This will live for ever. She lives on.
♥️thanks for coming in this world.
James Blunt is one of the most underrated singers and song writers. Deserves to be up there with Ed Sheeran.
Yes. I dont understand why
I'm a single mom and often I'd wish i never had a child cause this isn't what i hoped for but after i almost lost her,I realised that I really loved my baby and that it's okay to be a young single mom. Life changed for the better and music like this make everything moments worth a while ❤ thank you 💞💞💞
Bless you Silve! 😊
@@fabianolcthank you ❤
James thank you, I lost my beautiful girl last year extremly grateful for my gift of a daughter dying way too soon with so much more to give reminded of her childhood years dancing with blonde hair and red ribbons now its just tears on my shoulder cause i lost my best friend.
This song is way better than all the top 10 billboard songs
This song!!! I lost 6 pregnancies. This speaks right to my broken heart. ❤️
I'm sorry for your losses. ((hugs))
😔🫂❤️
Hugx
💔🙏💔🙏
Thank you for this special Song. For me it was the boy that never was.... Only for 5 Month inside me. Never saw my little boy the sunlight . This year it is 30 Years ago. I have born and lost my little Mario. Think all Mamas and Daddys think like me today , when I hear this song.
When They are parents of a - Sternenkind - . Since 1993 I can say I am Mother of two Children. But only my Daugther is alive. Thank you so much. This song touch so deep my heart.
😔🫂❤️

He has a impeccable talent for turning a grown man into a crying mess.keep up the good work buddy👍
Lol perfect way to explain it
To my baby girl, we Lost Her in April at 18 weeks pregnant❤️❤️
Ive had numerous miscarriages and one at 7 months a girl named Lily,i hope she's dancing somewhere x thank you this song has made me smile through my tears x
This song touched me I loss my first baby on 3rd may 2020 and this really touched my heart word describe everything what I’ve been threw and it was in first year off lockdown it didn’t help that either yes I use blame myself when I know it not my fault and I was In hospital I remembered what hospital said when I had my first ever scan they said everything is fine it wasn’t I had a appointment in few weeks later they asked if your baby dad there and I said he was out waiting for me they asked me if he come in for min they sat both off. Together said to both off you sorry your having a ectopic pregnancy 😢 then they said your going too have it removed I never ever felt pain I was crying I wouldn’t stop I was all alone in hospital on my own scared then I said it over now actually what this song says thank you to James blunt making this songs for mothers and fathers who have loss there babies x
This song kills me! We lost our first babygirl while I was at the 6th month pregnangy in 2018. We love JB since 2008...and cause of his music I met my husband... so in a few simple words you open a world of pain... this words are so true
I am so sorry if James and his spouse went through this loss. I went through it twice, before finally having my two kids and you never quite get over this type of loss. I remember those two babies all the time, so in a way, they ARE, vs never was. My heart goes out to folks who have experienced losing a child through miscarriage, you are NOT to blame ❤ 💔 😢
LYRICS:
Darling I
Know we talked about it one too many times
How there was something missing in our lives
A little life
So we tried
It was more than just a twinkle in your eye
But some things you just don't get to decide
At least we tried
The first casualty of life is the plan
When I look back I'm not even sure that
We were thinking
Somewhere
She's probably dancing with her blonde hair
Falling like ribbons on her shoulders
Just like we always saw
Bright eyes
Spinning in circles in the sunlight
Darling we tried but now it's over
We had it all and then we lost
The girl that never was
If I could say
A million words to take away the pain
What kills me is you trying to take the blame
You're not to blame
I'll never say I told you so
But sad I've thought the words
Tried drowning you in happiness
I only make it worse
We never should've picked a name
'Cause now she has a face
And now no matter what we do
No one will take her place
Somewhere
She's probably dancing with her blonde hair
Falling like ribbons on her shoulders
Just like we always saw
Bright eyes
Spinning in circles in the sunlight
Darling we tried but now it's over
We had it all and then we lost
The girl that never was
I know we'll never know you
I know we'll never hold you
I never got to show you
My love
'Cause somewhere
You're probably dancing with your blonde hair
Falling like ribbons on your shoulders
Just like we always saw
Bright eyes
Spinning in circles in the sunlight
Darling we tried but now it's over
We had it all and then we lost
The girl that never was
Listen to my song "I'll Be Me"

simply hauntingly beautiful, everything about a child never born. Thank you very much.
The best comeback song since "Carry You Home".
We lost our first child, our little boy in the NICU last year. This song really touched me today❤️ I love imagining who he would have become.
What a beautiful song, it touched my heart because my daughter was born dead and it hurts me every day of my life 😔 Her name is Inés Jacinta. Thank you James for caressing my soul ❤
❤
Inés Jacinta♡, what a beautiful name! Now in Heaven you have a little angel. May Inés Jacinta send you all her light every day of your life, until the same light of providence allows you to reunite with Jacinta again and be together forever.
@@SkullORStone thank you so much for your beautiful words! 🥰 I know that she always will wait for me in heaven! 😇 Kisses for you! 💖
@@fiorellaparodi8814 💞
Your song hits my heart hard. My wish always was to become a mother. But there was never a way to it. So this song is a reflection of my feelings/thoughts ...hope I find the right words to express. The video with the empty, quiet house is heartbreaking. But anyway thank you James Blunt for the sweet, bittersweet melody...I'm humming it in my empty house and I find some comfort in it. Thank you.❤
Enjoy your day all the beautiful soul 😊❤
I have two wonderful boys, very proud of what they have become….so…why arm I crying?
This song should be on the top 40 !!!!
James can absolutely bring me to tears with his music. I had my two daughters, but the second was never supposed to be, so she was a miracle for me. I can understand this song so much, it hurts even after 45 years.
As someone who had a miscarriage last month this has really hit me hard. What a beautiful song and so relatable to so many heartbroken parents. ❤
😢I had 4 miscarriages you learn to live with the pain
💔🙏💔🙏
Another great great song for James Blunt, had to be James, amazing!!
I swear they make these songs to make people sob. This didn't even happen to me and it broke me.
Oh my memories I had buried resurfaced tonight watching him on the one show. I lost 10 but was eventually blessed with two sons. The pain of loss has never left😢
Wow beautiful song so special as it falls on the month of my baby girls due date she would be 12 this year not a day goes by that we don't think of her .
God needed her more 💞
That's heartbreakingly beautiful. I am too young to have lived that, but as a woman with 30 percent of chances of being infertile (thanks to endometriosis), it just makes me break into tears. Also, if you wrote it, it's for a reason. You are so strong. And to anyone going through this, remember that you are strong. And like James said, you're not to blame. You'll never be the one to blame.
You are strong and im sure your comment will help many others with same problem! Life is very unfair sometimes, luckily theres many small little beautiful things that makes it worth it.
Everything will be fine. Children come when the time is right for this.
@@user-bf6iv9yk7c its not that easy with endometriosis. Don't be naive. Nothing is fine when youre suffering from this disease.
Sad but true ❤
Everytime I hear your music I wonder How do you do this? How do you find the exactly words to describe a real situation and deeply touch everyones heart ♥? James Your Are Divine, a Live Legend, Unique!
Another one, like Monsters, that packs a punch & hits home for so many! Thank you for always putting beautiful lyrics and melodies to the parts of life we can barely express! Beautiful, James! Thank you!
And if it's based on your own personal loss, deepest sympathies!!❤
And I think of your father often, and hope he's doing well! ❤
Wishing all good things for you & your own little family! ❤
I believe we will hold those precious sweet gifts from God in the life to come. Love you all
James this song is full of emotions and touches my heart, it's beautiful. This describes exactly how I felt when I carried my child under my heart for nine months and then gave birth to him stillborn. Then the world fell apart for me, but life went on and it now shines in the sky.😢👶🫶🙏😭♥️
It's so wonderful how James can make his experience into great lyrics and sing a beautiful song
In this song James Blunt talks about an unborn daughter and he does it in his usual way: touching the deepest emotions... when he says
"She's probably dancing with her blonde hair
Falling like ribbons on her shoulders..."
I feel tears in my eyes because I know what means, I know what it means when you no longer listen to her little beating heart...💔💔💔
Never heard this song before. Wow! Praying for the broken hearts of all who are forever broken from losing a Baby/child. It is something that you never forget…you just accept and move on.
Your song moves me 😢 the girl that never was, dreamed years about her I never met, though am So Thankful I was blessed with my three boys 🥰
This hit home. I lost our only son before birth. If he would have lived Sean would be 46. I could not have anymore. I was blessed with 2 girls and I'm grateful but that one part of you. What would have been.....
😢it's a sad song thanks to remember on all baby's women lost.its going though to my heart I lost too and I know that it's hard because we never forget and it's a really beautiful song to express it .thanks now I will more me imagine how the both are dancing somewhere
😔🫂❤️
This song breaks my heart for you 💔 😢 this is a beautiful song god bless you 🙏
25 Jahre ist es, dass ich meine Tochter zu früh und tot geboren habe. Am 27.10. Und jetzt kommt dieses Lied. Alles hat seine Zeit. Das Leben ist endlich, Erinnerungen und die Liebe bleiben für immer. Danke für dieses Lied.❤
Got two daughters 10 and 2 but in between my wife passed through 3 miscarriage. Wat a painful time we nearly lost hope for the last one but god got a plan for us. OBEY AND WITNESS. Love is all that helped us to live once more after each episode.
❤🙏🏿
Thank you, James Blunt. Thank you .
😢this one makes me cry … had nine miscarriages. It’s such a beautiful song but with such underlaying pain in it! James blunt is the master of songs with a soul ❤❤
Oh much love to you ❤🪽 I just had a miscarriage and can’t even imagine what it must feel to go through nine of them💫😢 they have each other in heaven🙏🏻✨
@@lenita1103 oh I am so so so sorry that you had to go trough that 😭 I feel sorry for you ! So much love to you ! ❤️🙏 keep up the faith. And take your time to grieve. Because this is a huge loss 🤍 your angel baby is in heaven now. Hopefully playing with mine 🙏 take care 🫂
He's in a league of his own. Absolutely love this fella. Hope we can catch one of the gigs.
James Blunt is the best! Forever! ❤
Oh wow. Hits my heart like a freight train. I carried a baby girl for 6 months and then lost her. All my other babies are blondes. I am sure she was too 😭. The way he described the child in his song, my heart just melted.
❤🪽💫 much love to you
Such a beautiful song. Made me cry and remember my baby girl I lost 5 months ago at 37weeks and 2days 😭😭😭
This is beyond sad. God bless all that have gone through this 🩷
If you believe in god nonsense then it would have been god that killed the unborn child, so people then need to thank him and ask for his blessing, starting to see how ridiculous religion is yet ?
This song has a special sense for me. I am childfree in general. But there was someone I loved that much that I simply wouldn't mind at all to have a part of him in a child.
And he, the only man I ever wanted to have a child with, died. And yeah, we were both blond, so even this matches the song...
And in general, looks like this album will be a message from my true love, so far all the songs are matching what happened to us... just realised it today. Waiting to see the next songs...
Dear Lord, this song was gut wrenching and brought tears to my eyes. My heart goes out to all who have experienced the grief of such a tragedy.
James Blunt is the type of singer/songwriter that can take a song beyond its expectations and he also has a voice that you not only hear but you can feel at the same time, he can sing with raw emotion without any fault in the lyrics and her approach to modern music is also addictive with every beat. James can be described as an artist that is both original yet unique and in my opinion that is a hard thing to find in todays music industry. So if you like music that will fill your heart and mind with joy and pure bliss i recommend this singer as a must see performance!!
james blunt is the one of the best storyteller-singer of our generation!!!
Just lost a baby two months (miscarriage) ago 💫🪽this song came at the perfect moment and really touches my heart. Thank you for finding the melody to my feelings 🫶🏻
Adoption will heal the pain. I know it for sure, I'm living it since 2015. It's pure magic, she's the best choice we ever made... Be open minded and try !
The week of what should have been my wife and I’s due date for our daughter, this just hits different, love to anyone who’s had to deal with this too.
Forever my three angel babies. Who knows who you could have been. Mama loves you whoever and wherever you are my little loves.
This song should be on the radio !!
Thank you for sharing, much love and prayers.
😪I cried so hard, I lost my little girl when I was 4,5 months pregnant.....
This song resonates so much with me. My little daughter stillborn 4 years ago. Baby Sofie 🩷 never forgotten 23.06.19 the day my life changed forever 😪
I don't have children but this is such a touching song and I'm sure it helps in a tiny way people who have lost theirs. Beautiful thoughtful song ♥️
My baby girl would have been 8 years old this month. I had 2 bad miscarriages. I know my second baby was a girl.
@@hellzkittehn5699❤❤
James Blunt new song that's exactly what i needed today & it's beautiful as always ! ❤🥺
Beautiful song for all the families that have lost a baby 😢
I have just find out this, TODAY! I am glad and of course it's a beautiful song. Especially my sister lost her supposed to be firstborn a couple months ago. Her name was Ohara Clare. I am missing a niece that I never got a chance to love and I just hope my sister and her husband don't take it hard as things happen when we least expected it. Play and sleep peacefully, baby Ohara.
This makes me feel something I shouldn’t lmao. Ruined my day but pleased my ears😭
The words broke me at the same time as putting me back together. The highs, the lows and then the acceptance that it's not going to happen. I love that image of the girl... that never was x
Hello James 🤗🥰!
When I realized what utterly terrible and painful times you, as a family in whole, were forced to experience, I couldn’t help thinking about what you all must have gone through 🥺😔!
I am deeply touched and moved by the way you were able to put all your feelings and emotions into this beautiful song!
What a powerful, incomparable and incredibly beautiful and courageous way of grasping the grief over such an incredible loss in words and music, which is not even remotely comprehensible to us outsiders! May your family regain all strength and confidence and keep the memories of it in eternally vivid memory!
An admirer of your fabulous artistry from Germany 🤗🥰😍!

Hey, nice to meet you am a lover of music 🎼 I was going through the comment section when I ran into your profile. Just wondering if your hair is natural?🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
I want to go home and hug my daughter after hearing this.
I can sing the boy that never was ... dream was to have a table full with kids ... after 12 years of trying I gave up and got my girl / my soulmate 🥰
JB always hit on another level. Old is gold.
I spent twelve years with her now she belongs someone.❤
