    Instead of calling it "depression", it's a song dedicated to all those great people who help us choose paths and makes us believe in ourselves. It is a love song for them. Teachers, parents, friends, our guardians.

And then I cry some more when I think about the people who don't have that support... If you're reading this and you're depressed please know you're not alone and you're not worthless! Don't be afraid to talk to someone about how you're feeling and please remember you're life is important!

    Didn't want to fail myself again
    Running through all the options
    And the endings
    Were rolling out in front of me
    But I couldn't choose a thread to begin
    And I could not love
    'Cause I could not love myself
    Never good enough, no
    That was all I'd tell myself
    And I was not well
    But I could not help myself
    I was giving up on living
    In the morning
    You were leaving
    Travelling south again
    And you said you were not unprepared
    And all the dead ends
    And disappointments
    Were fading from your memory
    Ready for that lonely life to end
    And you gave me love
    When I could not love myself
    And you made me turn
    From the way I saw myself
    And you're patient, love
    And you help me help myself
    And you save me

His favorite songs from the album were "I feel better" and this song. Every time I listen to either song, I cry hysterically, thinking about the many car rides how he would just immerse himself into the songs and sing away, not having any care in the world and being full of joy. The lyrics hurt deep because he has actually saved me. All i have are the memories while i listen to this beautiful album. I love you, Jeremy

    I don't know if you're gonna read this, but I want to share some thoughts. Whenever I hear one-hit wonders, I just get a painful urge to dig deeper, to find more about the artist. And whenever I do, most of the time, I find a treasure trove of good stuff.
    Just think about it; If you make something that is so good that resonates through the world, how can that be by accident? There must be more to the artist than simple luck or happenstance! And these other music videos that are on this channel are a testament to this. It's obvious that you pour your heart and soul into everything you do and every one of them are good.
    I almost never comment, but I just had to put this out here, because I came to respect you and your work so much.

    A true artist in every sense of the word... ART AT IT'S FINEST!!!!
    I believe that it is not important to Gotye how many people his art reaches... but rather, how his art impacts even one heart and soul.
    Thank you Wally, collaborators and crew for ALL the hard work and the resulting beauty that you put out into this troubled world!!!! The Karma will run over the dogma!!!!
    Much Peace and Love! ☮️💙

      in my opinion he's a genius and there's nothing like him quite out there...and for that reason he's a true artist...he doesn't copy nor does he follow easy pop trends to make loads of money....he puts the words and images and music together in a way...that music..."ought" to be...in this modern era.... so many are so caught in the past...he's the future

      Incredibly sad to me that "Someone That You Used To Know" became famous, but not Gotye himself. There's even videos that treat him like "What Happened to the 'Someone You Used to Know' Guy?" Making Mirrors is a great record man. So is Like Drawing Blood

      Iirc the guy doesn't really like the business side of the music industry especially after the headache inducing copyright schmucks that his song "Somebody that I Used to Know" Caused. Long story short he's now making songs with his friends in Australia and left the big scene. He's still active in making music but you just have to dig it up pretty hard

    I commented on this video years ago how Somebody I Used To Know hit home on Kimbra's part was everything I wanted to say to my abusive ex and Save Me was meeting my now husband when I could not love myself and he saved me. Now we've been together almost 11 years and I still revisit this song not just because it's awesome but because it reminds me of how my husband saved me. My ex actually contacted me a couple of weeks ago which set off all my anxieties and once again my husband was there to save me so I will keep coming back to this song because it makes me smile how lucky I am to have a husband who saved me.

    to be honest, i can not listen to this song, can't add it to my favorites on spotify, because it sparks too many emotions at once. it somehow makes me nauseated... anyone else? listened as a kid so the nostalgia. gotyes voice, that freaking voice. the instrumentation. everything about it, i cant explain.

      joeytje50 He's underrated as an artist, not an accomplished musician. I mean just think if some of your best pieces of work were covered up by a pop song that relatively pandered to the masses. The rest of his career is underrated. One hit wonder? Yes. Should he be? no.
