    When my son was about 6, this song was playing while was taking him to school. He started to cry. He was so emotional, I turned around and we went back home and both played hookie. He's 18 now and still remembers that....❤

      @@w5pda And my grandchildren last year, only 4 and 5 years old .
      Told their mommy immediately about this song when they got home after them both being with me, their babysitter, listening to music and us dancing that afternoon.
      Music is an universal language and a good singer can bring us many emotions, not even knowing what the lyrics are about. Grandchildren were not English speaking (now a bit, I'm teaching them) but they felt the emotion in his voice and music.
      Great song, great performance

      I think this version invokes more of a sense of loneliness than when Christina Aguilera is singing alongside him, so I think this version hits emotional harder than the duet.

    Both versions are heartbreaking, but this one feels sadder.
    In the original, when they harmonize, it’s like they’re grieving together.
    But with him, it’s like he’s calling out to the void, to someone who’s gone somewhere where they can’t hear and can’t reply. They can’t say something. They’re both alone.

      True love means giving up or letting go of the person you love if the relationship is not working or it's a one sided love. Also love yourself to find the one true love destined for you. In short your soul mate.

      I'm a Male Pakistani 39 yrs old. I fell in love with a 40 yrs old Male Pakistani. He was in love with me. We were best friends _ only see each other 1 month every year for 3 yrs.
      We were struggling to confront our love for each other. He told me he was looking for a wife so I went dating. I didn't know this whole time - all the Facebook posting in his wall was for me but I was blind cause I believe in direct communication. He walked out of my life
      6 yrs later. I .visit his page for the first time ever . He have a few posting open to the public. One of the posting was this song to me. The other posting stated he hated me si much that he wanted to assault me for having sex with other men. We are muslims so it's a cultural issue.
      I contacted him. I told him I was a rape victim during college. My mother commit suicide when I was 15. And my become paralyzed in my left arm.from a tumor 2 years after he left me without explaining why.
      He would.never tell.me why. He would only respond through meme. So one day, I told him, I have people love me and I don't need him anymore and he destroyed his social media account. His last words was he would contact me when hit 80s years old. I have 40 yrs to wait for that day to arrive.

    Everytime I listen to this song it hits me like a ton of bricks. My mom died a few weeks ago and I couldn't get to her because she lives in Las Vegas and Im in Florida and when I finally got to Vegas they wont allow me to go to the hospital with her because of the shut down due to the covid patients in her ICU ward. She pretended she was ok everytime we video chat with her. She even refuse pain medication and was even getting a little better but as soon as I flew back here in Florida I got the call from my sister and said Mom is gone. I still feel mad and would cry hours ad hours everytime I hear this song . Wow. Its so painful celebrating mothers day without a mother. Hug your parents guys ...hug them tight.

      I'm so sorry for the loss & what the evils did to you & your mom.
      There is no covid, it's all a very long con & scam, & only people who haven't studied the truth are falling for it & continuing to support the evils & the scam. We are in a war, make no mistake about that
      This is what they are doing to people who go into the hospital or in nursing homes, they are forcing them to die alone. The mafia medical industry is very very dangerous & always has been. It's not there to help people heal, only mask the problems or make them sicker. That's another scam that started around the end of the 1800s, but moreso started when the scientists who wanted fame & fortune lied about the germ theory.
      It's all psychological warfare.

    Today i just want to say something to everybody who read actually this,
    I just want to say that yes, sometimes life is harder than we want, sometimes we don't see light, just the darkness sometimes we feel so alone, even if we are surrounded. I know, that someday we just want to cry and disappear.
    But you know what? This is okay.
    Because you are stronger than you think.
    Please, never stop to believe in hope, or positif things,
    Because you know what?
    You.Are.Not.Alone.
    I promise, so i just want that you take a breath, and remember:
    You are alive, and you deserved it.
    I love you.
    Keep smiling.

    I love this song! "Giving up" so often has a bad rap. Listening to this song, I suddenly remembered that up... is higher... There is often pain assosciated with letting go but giving up is not always bad. Giving up can mean that you are ready to surrender that person, place or thing to something higher. And it can also mean you are willing to surrender yourself....
    Thank you for this.

    Sometimes life thrusts us into situations where we are forced to make decisions where the outcome will ultimately leave someone unhappy, whether it be yourself or someone you care about. We are all put in between a rock and a hard place at one point or another, and every once in a while we are forced to let go of someone we love. It's important to appreciate those that we truly care about while they are here, because when they are no longer a part of our lives, it will be too late to realize that we have taken them for granted. For how many of us has it taken losing someone to realize how much they truly mean. Let us all be thankful today, for the people that define our lives, and give meaning to our journey.

    When this song first came out I was going through my first heartbreak. I couldn't listen to this without bursting into tears. It was such an intense feeling. Now that I'm older and happily married (to someone else) and have started a family my past feelings seem so silly. Still this is a beautiful song. If there is anyone out there going through heartbreak, I promise you that time will heal you and you'll look back and laugh some day.❤

      This made me think back to a sad thing that happened to me.
      Back in mid April of 2022, I got invited to my old high school to attend an Easter party hosted by this religious club that I was student president emeritus of. I bet you think that I must have been excited and it sure sounded like a lot of fun, right?
      Not really.
      As soon as I showed up, my former teacher “Mr.X” greeted me & the two of us went up to the party room with some supplies for the party. He then told me that he had to run to the pizza shop so he could collect the pizza for the party. I offered to help him out, but he told me he was fine getting the stuff all on his own.
      So, I stayed back & set up the rest of the supplies, some drinks & food. I had to set up some napkins,, cups, soda, miniature nut free cupcakes, these fancy Italian bonbons called Baci, & even an adorable looking chocolate cake too.
      As I set up, 2 of these boys and Mr.X’s old friend who’s an elderly guitar player came in. They were just hanging around & decided that it was best not to mess with me as I did my stuff.
      Fun fact: Mr.X had cordially invited his pal to come on down to my old high school so he could play his guitar & sing an extra special easter song for the party.
      As soon as “Mr.X” came back from the pizza shop with the pizza, I had finished setting up. I was clearly exhausted, so I sat on a chair in the corner of the room near the door.
      Eventually, lots of kids and teachers showed up; there were even some teachers who I hadn’t bonded with for a long time. They were thrilled to see me and by the fact that I was there, but I wasn’t too excited to see them.
      In due course, the party was getting started & boy, was getting really packed & loud. It was so loud in fact, I couldn't take it!
      I tried doing the whole "If you can hear me, clap once" thing to help Mr.X since he was having trouble with the kids, but it failed. I then got mad & I angrily punched the wall & angrily said "Enough!!!!!!", but that didn’t work either!
      Then I angrily packed up all my stuff & got ready to leave. There was this one gym teacher whom I loathed during my second year of grade 12 named “Mr.Y” & he saw that I was upset. He came up to me & asked "Hey, Felix. Did you at least get some pizza?".
      But I got madder, angrily told him that I was fed up, flipped him the bird & stormed off in anger! I then got off school property without getting any pizza, soda, mini cupcakes, that chocolate cake or even those cute little Baci bonbons either!
      I even missed out on hearing that Mr.X’s friend play his guitar & sing his special easter song!
      In the end, I took the subway, then a bus and had to walk the rest of the way back home.
      When I got home, I went up to my bedroom & changed into some more inconspicuous. Unexpectedly, I started crying & shaking inside my closet.
      I then got a call from my mom (who was in Tuscany for a business trip) & she was asking me if I had a good time at the Easter party.
      I was tempted by my subconscious to lie about it, so I wouldn’t get in trouble.
      But, I had no other choice but to fess up & I wound up telling her the truth, the whole truth & nothing but the truth! In the end, I wound up getting punished badly for what I did & I still am to this day!
      I learned that day facing both the consequences & my angry mom is certainly a lot less painful than getting stuck in a massive chunk of dishonesty! I even learned some other things:
      Coming clean to one’s family members is certainly a lot less painful than getting stuck in a huge chunk of dishonesty. It’s also the best policy, no matter what.
      Never should anyone ever live off a huge chunk of dishonesty. Otherwise they will find themselves in some pretty hot water sooner or later.
      If you lie, all those bits of dishonesty you tell to other people will eventually accumulate, come back to bite & haunt you. And pretty soon, it will obviously end up taking you hostage & enslaving you too.
      After that, I had to apologise to to everybody (including Mr.X’s friend) via email. But even though everyone reassured me that they weren’t offended, mad or even frustrated by my rage that day, I still continue to feel extremely awful even to this very day.
      I can't even go back to that club all because of my rage & thanks to said rage, I got kicked out.
      Of course, Mr.X, the other teachers, Mr.X’s friend, God & even those students who are in the club all hate me now thanks to what I did!
      I was originally invited to that club’s Xmas last year, this & next year’s xmas & easter party. But thanks to what I did, I was cordially uninvited!
      I was still pretty mad back then. So in fury, I wound up posting some nasty comments like "f*** pizza. Pizza is for losers.", “pizza is so f***ing dumb.” & even "stupid kids. They don't need pizza." on my old high school’s website website.
      Eventually, I got busted by both my mom & Mr.X. For my punishment, I got banned from my old high school forever.
      I admit it.
      I had everything, but now I’ve lost it all:
      tonnes of power
      the adoration of others
      lots of biblical knowledge & wisdom
      the chance to have fun
      A cool title
      mr.x’s trust
      The chance to be with Mr.X’s friend
      Visiting my old high school
      the respect of God, Mr.X’s guitar playing friend, the kids of the club & all of those teachers; including Mr.X….
      Enjoyment of food with old teachers & new friends
      On top of that, Mr.X’s friend & I now see each other as bad fits for each other.
      To me, he’s nothing but a crocodile in an alligator’s turf & to him, I am nothing but an alligator within a crocodile’s turf!

    I'll always prefer the original. It has the proper, small, faint, lonely quality that the song was meant to have. This was never meant to be a duet, and I think it actually suffers from twin voices. It loses it's meaning. It's the feelings of one person, the struggle of being left alone, as the other fades away. One singer perfectly captures that feeling in a way two never could.

      This song makes me think back to this club from my old high school that I got kicked out of.
      I arose to the position of student president emeritus,where I had a lot of power.
      But I abused my power once and that resulted in me getting kicked out.

After writing back and forth for a few months, I met a beautiful girl there and we had a chance to meet a few times and talk. We shared a lot interests, talked for hours each time. When I returned home, I guess I said one too many things about how I felt. She stopped writing and I never heard from her again. This song is eerily fitting. I'm so glad I stumbled onto it.

He gave everything he had, more than he should have; put up with so much, bent and twisted himself to make himself fit with his partner… then one day, he realized he couldn’t do it anymore. And he’s mourning the loss of what he tried to have, of what he wished he could have. He still loves his partner, but he can’t go any further on this path. He gives the partner one last chance to say something, anything, to give him hope, and receives… only silence.

    Sometimes... I feel like screaming this out to my friends to get them to notice how much I love them. Especially this one friend... Who I don't feel is close to me. She makes my emotions go on a rollercoaster ride. My other friend might be confused, too... I REALLY feel like singing this to my friend... Or at the very least say it to her. I feel like giving up a lot of the time... Especially because she's been going to counselling A LOT. I want to say something. That I'm giving up. But I won't. I won't give up on her.
    I love her.

      Mitch,
      Just a thought about being a teenager from a guy in his fifties. It isn't your age, because I virtually don't feel any different now then at any other time in my life. What is different is the opportunity that lay before you as opposed to someone my age. So dream big and when I say big I MEAN BIG...and pursue that dream with every ounce of strength you have and then some; don't rest or waste any moments feeling sorry about anything. And remember to cherish every sensation the good, bad and the painful you'll be fine.

You gotta improve every day, you cant just sink to the bottom of the pool and stay there. It's hard, but if you push against the current you can make it to the end.

      Hi Mitch, one thing I can promise you from my own experience is that it will get easier than it has been as a teen. Not right away of course because things can't be that easy apparently, but you start to learn who you are, what is important to you, and what means something to you regardless of others opinions. It does get better and it gets more meaningful. The things you worry about will change, it may still be there in the same intensity but the difference is you learn to know yourself enough to know how to deal with it. With all of that said :) I agree, I had the hardest time when I was a teen, but the best part is that is also when I learned who I was, what I wanted to learn and how I wanted to be better.
      It is not easy and I can tell you there were times I wanted to give up (commenting to Miguel) but you get through it, you have to think about what is important to you and the impact you want to make.
      It does get easier and at 28 I am still learning; I appreciate that.

      makes me think of this club from my old high school I got kicked out of.
      I arose to the position of student president emeritus,where I had a lot of power.
      But I abused my power and that resulted in me getting kicked out.
      You see.... Back in mid April of 2022, I got invited to my old high school to attend an Easter party.
      I bet you all think that I must have been excited and it sure sounded like a lot of fun, right?
      Not really, you guys!
      As soon as I show up, my former teacher “Mr.X” greeted me & the two of us went up to the party room with supplies. He then told me that he had to run & get the pizza from the pizza shop for the party.
      I offered to help out. But, he told me he was fine getting the stuff on his own. So, I stayed back & set up the rest of the stuff & the drinks/food. I had to set up soda, mini cupcakes, fancy Italian bonbons, & even an adorable looking chocolate cake too.
      As I set up, 2 boys and this elderly guitar player came and they were just dillydallying, lollygagging and what not. As I set up, they decided that it was best not to mess with me.
      As soon as the teacher came back from the pizza shop with the pizza, I had finished setting up. I was clearly exhausted. So, I sat in the corner near the door.
      Eventually, lots of kids and teachers showed up; there were even some teachers who I hadn’t bonded with for a long time. They were thrilled I was there, but I wasn’t too excited to see them.
      In due course, the party was getting started & boy, was getting really packed & loud. It was so loud in fact, I couldn't take it!
      I tried doing the whole "If you can hear me, clap once" thing, but it failed.
      I then got mad & I angrily punched the wall & angrily said "Enough!!!!!!"!
      Then I angrily packed up all my stuff and prepared to leave.
      One of the gym teachers I loathed during my second year of grade 12 named “Mr.Y” saw that I was upset, came up to me & asked "Hey, Felix. Did you at least get some pizza?".
      But I got madder, angrily told him that I was fed up, flipped him the bird & stormed off in anger!
      I then exited the room & got off school property without getting any pizza, soda, mini cupcakes, that chocolate cake or even those fancy Italian bonbons.
      The worst part is, I missed out on getting to hear that elderly guitar player play his special easter song!
      In the end, I went home; where I went up to my bed room & started spiritually crying & physically shaking inside my closet. I then got a call from my mom asking me if I had a good time at the Easter party.
      I was tempted by subconscious to lie about it, so I wouldn’t get in trouble.
      But, I had no other choice but to tell her the truth, the whole truth & nothing but the truth!
      In the end, I wound up getting punished badly for what I did & I still am! But, as I learned that day; facing both the consequences & my angry mom was certainly a lot less painful than getting stuck in a big lie!
      Yes, even though I apologized to everyone via email; I still feel awful.
      Now I can't even go back to the club all because I got dishonorably discharged for being pissed off. Of course, the teacher, that musician, God & even the students in the club all hate me now!
      I was originally invited to that club’s Xmas last year & their easter party this year. But since my actions got me dishonorably discharged, I was cordially uninvited because of it! same with this year's xmas party.
      & since I was so mad, I even posted some nasty comments like "🖕🏻pizza. pizza's for losers." & "stupid kids. they don't need pizza" on the school website.

    This song just came out when my husband then now ex husband presented divorce papers to me. I remember crying and crying when this song came on. I didn't know what was going to happen. At the time, my two little boys were 3 years old and 3 months old. I was living states away from my family and friends. I was alone and terrified to be alone raising my two little boys. Well, he wanted to work things out and I really tried but actually the roles has changed. He wishes that he never left me. I am stronger than before. I moved back with my parents. I met a wonderful man who I hope to move by next summer to be closer to. I learned that I can survive without my ex husband and now life is wonderful. Looking back and remembering the sadness that I went through and how this song helped me a little bit to get by during that very dark time in my life. This song will always bring me back though with me sitting in the driveway and wondering how in the world am I going to get through this situation.

    This song hit my heart. Not because of some of some girl but because of God. I've been going to church my whole life but as of last year I've slowly became distant from the religious community. Right now, I think of myself as a closet Atheist but will immediately go back to church if something happened. The bible means nothing to me when there is so much corruption and evil in this world, especially to the kids that are innocent.
    Throughout the year, I hoped God was real. I hoped God would speak to me like he did to many of the biblical figures of the bible. As the days go by, I'm gaining confidence in finally leaving the church for good.

    • @thomassmith1821
      @thomassmith1821 10 років тому +7

      Leave why? You have to understand that God does not allow these things to happen to our innocent children. it is us that does the bad and the horrible things to our own, in this life. He can only guide us to do the right things. Yet we do the wrong. You say you want him to speak to you as he did to those in the bible. I say by me writing this to you know he is. Never lose faith, If you do, you will lose mind. Remember this. Atheist believe in the BIG BANG right.....? well its proven it would be made of dark matter which is a form of energy and energy cant always exist something would have had to put it there. Keep the faith.
