I’ve just lost my mum , she was far too young and beautiful . This is my childhood . My mum cooking us tea and David Gray playing in the kitchen . Her funeral is next Friday and at the moment David Gray is keeping me going through my quiet and sad times 💙 I love you mum xxxxxx
After my dad was diagnosed with a terminal disease, he and I took a special trip into New York City. I bought this album at Virgin Mega Store on that trip.
I am sat here at 6am sleepless in the dark, David, your music found me again. It has instilled hope and awakening in me, I have been going through the hardest, most tiring, confusing times of my life this past 6 months. It has reminded me there is light in the world. Thank you.
There is indeed light in this world. Don’t stop seeking it out. Be the light. And share it with others no matter how dark it may seem in your world. You are loved ❤❤❤
I remember these lyrics! But I remember part of the "Every time I look at you" line cut out in the thirty-second preview of this song that was included in MusicMatch Jukebox when I first listened to it on my HP Pavilion 710 CTO PC in 2002, which I used to have until 2004.
This comment has really stuck with me. Whenever I listen to David Gray, I think about some fellow's father and all the things he might have been thinking.
Found this CD in a car that was wrecked.. hit eject and out came this masterpiece.. that was 2000… still listening to it today.. and loving every minute of it.
This song reminds me of growing up with my Dad, a single parent, how well he done!! and songs like this help me cherish those times that much more. I love you Dad ❤️ every day with you is another happy memory 💕
Dads eh? I can relate. Mine is resting amongst the stars looking down and guiding my everyday. Since 3/3/09. I miss him more than can be expressed here. Enjoy every waking moment with yours. LOVE
@@ladybirdmclean0987 Though I cannot relate to your loss, I can with the love you share. Keep your chin high and whether heaven is real or not, he's close to you and will always be your guiding star ❤️ much love
Thank you for this song, David. I fell in love with my wife to these lyrics about 10 years ago. Every time I hear this song it reminds me of everything about her that makes me a very fortunate man.
@@michaeldempsey2549 hey Micheal! We sure are! She has been my sweet thing ever since the day. I met her. Married now for 13 years together 16 I believe. still a very lucky man!
That’s so so so spot on. I listened to this album on repeat as my brother and I drove through Scotland on a long golf trip. Now I listen and I am back in that car…just he and I again. Laughter and tears at the same time. How I miss him. DG was his favorite artist…just glad we got to see him live a couple of times together. I hope the memories and feelings you get from listening are as happy as the times we had when we did.
The day I wrote this comment, was the first time in many, many years since I listened to it. Managed to listen to it, I should say really. And you know what? It was good. Realised how grateful I am for the memories in spite of how things ended. It helped me become the person I am today. Would be a shame to never listen to this magnificent album ;-)
your comment hit hard with me cos i understood what you mean, but let yourself enjoy the music and if you are overcome then so be it, enjoy the song and your memory's.
severely under rated. Reminds me of the short but severely unforgettable time I had with my dad. He died in 2004 when I was 9. Wait for me I love you so much daddy.
Your comment just made me cry. Thinking of you, friend. My ex-husband took my kids away. I haven’t seen them in years. I play this song and have memories of their childhood when I was a new parent. I can tell you- your father loves you. And is eagerly awaiting the day he gets to see you again.
I've been looking for this song for years... Never remembered more than a couple words from first listening. I broke down crying when I heard it again. Thank you.
this song oh my goodness its amazing, Me and my daughter went to see David in Liverpool and i must say it was the best night ever. fabulous memories for us both. ps i did a little screamimg hahaha
' I got half a mind to scream out loud, i got half a mind to die, so i wont ever have to lose you girl.. wont ever have to say goodbye ' Gets at my soul them lyrics. Love David gray.
Me too! I remember listening to a thirty-second preview for a slightly different version of this song in MusicMatch Jukebox on my HP Pavilion 710 CTO PC (which was my first HP PC) with Windows XP Home Edition on it back in 2002. I never listened to the full-length version of it until I found it here on UA-cam a decade later in 2012. This song does bring back memories, so now I have the actual "White Ladder" album on CD.
I haven't listened to this album in 20 years. It was the only cd I had with me on a very long trip when I was 18 & I listened to it constantly on my walkman, every song over and over. Beautiful album. I still have every song memorized... it's crazy. Takes me right back to where I was when I was 18. Funny how music can do that!
Back when this album came out I was working in a restaurant in Galway, Ireland. My fellow waiting staff played it incessantly. At the time I was young and a music snob and recoiled against anything that was then currently popular. Although for popular modern music I didn't think David Gray was terrible. However, because he was popular I couldn't properly open my ears to what I have over the past few years come to appreciate is one of the best popular music albums of all time. It is an exquisite work of aural beauty. As a lover of Soul music this album just oozes raw emotion. It is perfection.
I used to listen all David gray songs 14 years ago even longer. When your life gets lost and you finally find yourself again 😁💪 anyone going though a bad time i promise you will get that smile back you will be happy again... ♥️ I don't know you but I'm very proud of you. You are amazing no matter your problems or mistakes 😁
For James 😥 I miss you every day! Your death isn't getting easier for me. I listened to everyone else's pain about you as I kept silent and tried be there for them but now it my turn I'm gonna shout it from the rooftops I MISS YOU I LOVE YOU
You certainly ain't on your own, roll back them years and let those great memories come flooding back. Wonderful Wonderful music hey !!! 🙏❤️🏴🇬🇧❤️🙏 Apr twenty four
Great song off a great album, ground breaking musician using a computer, sampler, keyboard. Phil Hartnoll from Orbital gave him a small mixing desk and recommended the Roland Groovebox drum machine and the rest as they say is history.
This album helped me through my Mother's death...and My Aunt Bette's death... I can not express how these songs impacted my life in the most profound way... Humbly, I thank you Mr. David Gray...!
Please forgive me If I act a little strange For I know not what I do Feels like lightning Running through my veins Every time I look at you Every time I look at you Help me out here All my words are falling short And there's so much I want to say Want to tell you just how good it feels When you look at me that way, ah When you look at me that way Throw a stone And watch the ripples flow Moving out across the bay Like a stone I fall into your eyes Deep into that mystery, ah Deep into some mystery I got half a mind To scream out loud I got half a mind to die So I will never have to Lose you girl Won't ever have to say goodbye I won't ever have to lie Won't ever have to say goodbye Whoa I Whoa I Whoa I Please forgive me If I act a little strange For I know not what I do Feels like lightning Running through my veins Every time I look at you Every time I look at you Every time I look at you Every time I look at you
I’ve had the privilege of cooking for this man,absolute legend in my book!! Also we did put his music on in the restaurant as he ate his food,he just sat there smiling at us all 😊
Great beat from the start... bordering on the brilliant...l think my favorite ❤ Thanks for no likes thus far .."feel like screaming out loud....please forgive me..."
We were listening to this album on repeat with my dad during road trips late evening to and from Mazurian Lake district in Poland. Pure Magic - Renault Rapid, old cassette player thanks for memories.
David, you could release this whole album in 2021 and i would still be awesome and beautiful. Timeless beauty, aye? Just, awesome, always. Thank you for not being an accountant.
That's what I'm looking for, songs, albums, cd's that aren't in the top 50 of everybody's playlist, but should be, open head, open your heart, feel the words feel the music
I was working in Ireland, in a bar ( i’m Swedish ). This guy comes in, orders. He talks about working with Simply Red and now he’s involved in a new projekt. He plays a tape and i’m stunned. Even as the drums start. ”This is above and beyond”. This was the song he played. So emotional, ecstatic, so musical and so full of everything. It is like a full theatrical play in a song..
Can't believe there aren't more likes. Still feels like lightning running through my ears everytime I listen... Hoping the white ladder tour happens this summer 🙏
What an opener for an Album. "Please forgive me if I act a little strange, feels like lightning running through my veins every time I look at you". True love I long for.
I remember listening to a thirty-second preview for a slightly different version of this song in MusicMatch Jukebox on my first HP Pavilion PC with Windows XP Home Edition on it back in 2002. I never listened to the full-length version of it until I found it here on UA-cam a decade later in 2012. This song does bring back memories, so I have the actual "White Ladder" CD now. Thank you for uploading this video!
I have epilepsy and untreated panic attacks. Every morning. My panic attacks start and I immediately run into the bathroom run hot water and play this. It's the beginning of me walking myself back.
Truly one of the greatest albums. For me a reminder of a past life and love. Each song a time, place and feeling. And for that an album close to my heart.
Timeless David, to everyone who broke up in 2000, you broke us all again! 20 years later this makes me smile warmly. You are a giant. One of life's enduring tracks. Thank you
I remember my dad coming out of the marines and getting my family a HP computer. I was 8 years old and would play this song while I played Red Faction, and Real War on pc. I remember how hard it was to find it online back then without buying for it haha. Now I'm 29 tomorrow and I dedicated this song to .y best friend who's a single mother and I'm a single father. No songs captures my love better than this. I'm going to marry her one day. Watch. I'll be back.
When this album was released I was travelling around Africa on business… my first day at the office in Nigeria I had just made a cup of tea and was walking back to my office when out of nowhere this beautiful South African girl with jet black hair and the most piercing blue eyes stopped in front of me and smiled… as I looked at her my whole body tingled… felt like lightning running through my veins…this song always takes me back to that day and the fun we had in the weeks to come….
I have just decided to play the album White Ladder.... played it to death when it first came out, OMG.... Still love it & singing & dancing to it. Amazing
When i turned 3, my father gave me an ipod with tons of music he pre-downloaded for me to listen to. This is one of the songs on his playlist. Thank you for making such a memorable song. Il never forget this one.
I bought this cd on the back of Davids cover version of Say Hell Wave Goodbye! I gotta say, it is 1 of the best cd's I've ever bought. Its just full of superb songs and really awesome lryics. Its whatcha might call 'real' music! Thanks DG.
I remember when I was about 3 and I was in my room playing with Lego and other toys and my dad would put this album on and it was this song which I like the most ever since that day
20 years ago we discovered you @ Slane..... I remember the whole crowd just freezing and was like "who's this?" you've been rocking our hearts ever since Dave xx my friend and I saw you lat night in New York dancing your heart out and I felt xo happy for you. Cause you were finally able to give back xx love you with all my great xx whatta man xx
Perfect album Mr. Gray. Absolute genius composition and lyrics. In my top 5 of all time. 2 of your songs from White Ladder were played in my wedding reception in 07'. Never stop writing sir! Thanks!
I lost my fiancee 2months ago. He loved David Grey and I loved him singing to me and shaking his head like David grey does.. played it at his funeral. Special song xxx
David Gray never got the recognition he deserved.
He is one of the best singer songwriters
he did
He did in Ireland from the start
I think he's made his mark
I’ve just lost my mum , she was far too young and beautiful . This is my childhood . My mum cooking us tea and David Gray playing in the kitchen . Her funeral is next Friday and at the moment David Gray is keeping me going through my quiet and sad times 💙 I love you mum xxxxxx
I don't know who you are but stay strong bud and I'm sorry for your loss.
Bradley Sturrock thank you 🙏
I’m so sorry, Peter. I don’t know you either, but I’m here for you. 😢😔
Marissa thank you very much xxxx
Peter Howorth You’re welcome.😔😌xxxooooooo! 🌙✨🌌💙
After my dad was diagnosed with a terminal disease, he and I took a special trip into New York City. I bought this album at Virgin Mega Store on that trip.
One of the best songs of all time. Not even debatable.
The album is desert island material
What if it actually happened to you?
Not heard it for about 16 years now and just listened this morning 29th March 2022 at 10:56am and in tears from how good it is
A great track & a truly GREAT album 🍷😉
It just gives goosebumps never gets old proper old school music.
The hairs on my body refuse to sit for this one!
+Gar C Amen brother
incredible song x
Classic 🎉
I am sat here at 6am sleepless in the dark, David, your music found me again. It has instilled hope and awakening in me, I have been going through the hardest, most tiring, confusing times of my life this past 6 months. It has reminded me there is light in the world. Thank you.
There is indeed light in this world. Don’t stop seeking it out. Be the light. And share it with others no matter how dark it may seem in your world. You are loved ❤❤❤
❤❤

you are spot on Chloe
Me too..... sob....
Me too.
My current fav is "I gotta get a bike and I gotta paint it red"
This album sailed me through a bad jail sentence and brought me out a better person.
Beautiful. God bless.
A nar what y meen kid 👍😉🎶🐬🐬🔊🎧
How brilliant, good for you
Good for you man. We are all masters of our own destiny and all guilty of our own mistakes. Wish you all the best 👍
Beautiful ❤️
I'm an old man now, and this song still makes me tear up. The memories, broken hearts and smiles all flooding back.
❤️🙏
You're only as old as you feel but memories last forever
Me too 😊
I remember been about 10 or 11 and my dad would have this album playing in the car on a long drive home
Very sad this song...
Tom Stewart sounds nice
My dad wood have it blasting after night out house full of his mats getting smashes miss them days love my dad miss him
Arran Wood Damn was the exact same thing for me
This comment has really stuck with me. Whenever I listen to David Gray, I think about some fellow's father and all the things he might have been thinking.

Love this story!
Why does this album make my heart heavy, 20 years after I first fell in love with it?
Same.
His world tour is on at the moment, I was fortunate to see the new show, the best ever......
Oh god me too
This song reminds me of growing up with my Dad, a single parent, how well he done!! and songs like this help me cherish those times that much more. I love you Dad ❤️ every day with you is another happy memory 💕

I will never stop listening to this album.
It worth it. 👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻👍🏻
The importance of the reminder why it means so deeply much...
Sob..... he is a brilliant songwriter.... Never tire of this album...
Same
You will one day. There will come a day - and not in a remote future - when Rachael will cease doing everything.
Thank you for this song, David. I fell in love with my wife to these lyrics about 10 years ago. Every time I hear this song it reminds me of everything about her that makes me a very fortunate man.
Still hope your together after 6 years x
@@michaeldempsey2549 hey Micheal! We sure are! She has been my sweet thing ever since the day. I met her. Married now for 13 years together 16 I believe. still a very lucky man!
If you were 20 when this came out, you're now 40. Holy shit. Where did it all go?
Into love and life and babies and cats and moments traveling to strange new places while playing my own soundtrack.
I was -2 and I can't tell you. But 2000 stuff being oldies now is scary.
Mid 30s now. Better back then.

Hello from Ireland 🇮🇪
I purchased this album in 1999. Listening to it today 22 September 2019 felt as good as it did then. AMAZING FOREVER.
YES :)
I nicked it in 99 off a lovely lady
@@MultiWobble Oh no! I hope she sees this lol
Literally every song is a memory and a feeling. He is one of the greatest singers and songwriters. 25+ years later and this is still a favorite.
Can't listen without tearing up atleast once. One of the most beautiful pieces of music ever written. Criminally underrated.
That’s so so so spot on. I listened to this album on repeat as my brother and I drove through Scotland on a long golf trip. Now I listen and I am back in that car…just he and I again. Laughter and tears at the same time. How I miss him. DG was his favorite artist…just glad we got to see him live a couple of times together. I hope the memories and feelings you get from listening are as happy as the times we had when we did.
@@TanukiSC ❤️❤️
One of the cases where the studio version gets it just right, can't be improved upon. Probably one of the best love songs of all time.
As usual I'm late to the party...... I just truly discovered David Gray this month .....his songs are so beautiful they make me cry
I think i was 11 when this album came out. It's doesn't matter if your late to the party at least you found him.
This album reminds me of better, simpler times... I miss my dad so much, he loved David Gray💔 R.I.P
Not heard in a while ,,wow nearly in tears ,,,no words required
White Ladder makes me revisit places in my memory, that I prefer to leave alone. Yet among the most important times of my life. It's complicated.

I've been looking for this song for years... Never remembered more than a couple words from first listening. I broke down crying when I heard it again. Thank you.
this song oh my goodness its amazing, Me and my daughter went to see David in Liverpool and i must say it was the best night ever. fabulous memories for us both.
ps i did a little screamimg hahaha
the song started and tears starting running down my face, memories of simpler times
' I got half a mind to scream out loud, i got half a mind to die, so i wont ever have to lose you girl.. wont ever have to say goodbye '
Gets at my soul them lyrics. Love David gray.

Listening to this album gives you a hit of nostalgia so big it puts a lump in your throat.
His lyrics and voice will keep me strong through my illness , he is brilliant :)
You're still with us, right?
I haven't listened to this album in 20 years. It was the only cd I had with me on a very long trip when I was 18 & I listened to it constantly on my walkman, every song over and over. Beautiful album. I still have every song memorized... it's crazy. Takes me right back to where I was when I was 18. Funny how music can do that!
Nice story. I find it amazing that we have all these things memorized in your heads. I have a similar thing with a Jack Johnson album
@@mathdavies9546 thank you! That's awesome. There's a couple Jack Johnson songs that do that for me as well. Happy music listening/remembering! ☺️

Hello from Ireland 🇮🇪 😀
I remember I used to hear this song a lot when I was little. It brings back a lot of memories that nearly brings a tear to my eye.
the greatest
Its bring tears to mine
First time I saw my (now) wife of 12 years, it was that "lightning running through my veins."
I used to listen all David gray songs 14 years ago even longer. When your life gets lost and you finally find yourself again 😁💪 anyone going though a bad time i promise you will get that smile back you will be happy again... ♥️ I don't know you but I'm very proud of you. You are amazing no matter your problems or mistakes 😁
I've never gotten tired of hearing this one. Pure and timeless.
The best ever

Magnificent song on an amazing album . I could hardly listen to this album as I find it so emotional. ❤️

I miss you mom. I wish things could have been different so I would not have to miss you so much. You always be in my heart.
Beautiful song about a introspect deep love that can never be stolen from his heart…to die & never say goodbye… sublime
Great song off a great album, ground breaking musician using a computer, sampler, keyboard. Phil Hartnoll from Orbital gave him a small mixing desk and recommended the Roland Groovebox drum machine and the rest as they say is history.
Now this is the album of my youth. God bless the late 90's 😊
This album helped me through my Mother's death...and My Aunt Bette's death... I can not express how these songs impacted my life in the most profound way... Humbly, I thank you Mr. David Gray...!
Please forgive me
If I act a little strange
For I know not what I do
Feels like lightning
Running through my veins
Every time I look at you
Every time I look at you
Help me out here
All my words are falling short
And there's so much I want to say
Want to tell you just how good it feels
When you look at me that way, ah
When you look at me that way
Throw a stone
And watch the ripples flow
Moving out across the bay
Like a stone I fall into your eyes
Deep into that mystery, ah
Deep into some mystery
I got half a mind
To scream out loud
I got half a mind to die
So I will never have to
Lose you girl
Won't ever have to say goodbye
I won't ever have to lie
Won't ever have to say goodbye
Whoa I
Whoa I
Whoa I
Please forgive me
If I act a little strange
For I know not what I do
Feels like lightning
Running through my veins
Every time I look at you
Every time I look at you
Every time I look at you
Every time I look at you
I go out of my way to do the stupidest-things sometimes,when I'm Bored with Life...
Please bring that voice back David
I’ve had the privilege of cooking for this man,absolute legend in my book!! Also we did put his music on in the restaurant as he ate his food,he just sat there smiling at us all 😊
Great beat from the start... bordering on the brilliant...l think my favorite ❤ Thanks for no likes thus far .."feel like screaming out loud....please forgive me..."
21 yrs old, Brighton, no kids or mortgage and the start of mine and my wifes relationship, absouloutly magical times!
We were listening to this album on repeat with my dad during road trips late evening to and from Mazurian Lake district in Poland. Pure Magic - Renault Rapid, old cassette player thanks for memories.
Actually we were mixing this album with Mercury Falling by Sting
David, you could release this whole album in 2021 and i would still be awesome and beautiful. Timeless beauty, aye? Just, awesome, always. Thank you for not being an accountant.
That's what I'm looking for, songs, albums, cd's that aren't in the top 50 of everybody's playlist, but should be, open head, open your heart, feel the words feel the music
That is so true, im so sick of chart music, these ppl they dont even have their own taste, they just listen to what they are fed by the industry
I was working in Ireland, in a bar ( i’m Swedish ).
This guy comes in, orders. He talks about working with Simply Red and now he’s involved in a new projekt.
He plays a tape and i’m stunned.
Even as the drums start.
”This is above and beyond”.
This was the song he played.
So emotional, ecstatic, so musical and so full of everything.
It is like a full theatrical play in a song..
Can't believe there aren't more likes. Still feels like lightning running through my ears everytime I listen... Hoping the white ladder tour happens this summer 🙏
One of the most amazing songs ever. Brings back so many memories 😥🌹❤❤
What a fantastic piece of music….a song with words true and beautiful !
Many memories in this song. I was in my 20s, just finished my college back then. OMG...
One album ive never heard anyone criticising... Incredible natural talent Mr Gray👌
The guitar riff at the end of this song - it's everything.
What an opener for an Album. "Please forgive me if I act a little strange, feels like lightning running through my veins every time I look at you". True love I long for.

Back I'm the day driving around in me xr2 mint m8 😉👍🐬
One of the best songs ever, makes me feel so much
This song got me through labouring on a south London building site. Man, that was a tough gig, glad I got into the BBC 2 years later!
White ladder is the perfect 'Chill' album..... Peaceful music, can't refuse it.
I have epilepsy and untreated panic attacks. Every morning. My panic attacks start and I immediately run into the bathroom run hot water and play this. It's the beginning of me walking myself back.
Truly one of the greatest albums. For me a reminder of a past life and love. Each song a time, place and feeling. And for that an album close to my heart.
SUCH A BEAUTIFUL SONG ❤️🦋
This song brings back so many memories.... and some of these memories make me sad because that’s what they are now... just memories 😢❤️
2019 and still a banging blast from the past. Gotta love it what a tune
This whole CD brought me through some memorial times some great some bad.... David Grey is a genius!!love and respect to all who read this
Like a stone i fall into your eyes deep into that mystery
Timeless David, to everyone who broke up in 2000, you broke us all again! 20 years later this makes me smile warmly. You are a giant. One of life's enduring tracks. Thank
you
the best album ever start to finish

No songs captures my love better than this. I'm going to marry her one day. Watch. I'll be back.
You were amazing and still are buddy ❤
Every time!am sure it'sgood when you look at me!X
When this album was released I was travelling around Africa on business… my first day at the office in Nigeria I had just made a cup of tea and was walking back to my office when out of nowhere this beautiful South African girl with jet black hair and the most piercing blue eyes stopped in front of me and smiled… as I looked at her my whole body tingled… felt like lightning running through my veins…this song always takes me back to that day and the fun we had in the weeks to come….
Masterpiece
This helped me through my parents divorce. It's the theme to better times....
I have just decided to play the album White Ladder.... played it to death when it first came out, OMG.... Still love it & singing & dancing to it. Amazing
One of the best releases!
When i turned 3, my father gave me an ipod with tons of music he pre-downloaded for me to listen to. This is one of the songs on his playlist. Thank you for making such a memorable song. Il never forget this one.
David grey is so underrated but I don't think he would ever top this album. Masterpiece 💞
Not underrated, only by you
I have listened to the white ladder album over the years it's amazing how music can get us through some bad times🙌
Best song he's ever done this.
Heard this in the grocery store today, it's probably been 20 years and it doesn't feel like it's been anything close to that long.
Me too. I was at a Safeway. I agree, it doesn’t
I bought this cd on the back of Davids cover version of Say Hell Wave Goodbye! I gotta say, it is 1 of the best cd's I've ever bought. Its just full of superb songs and really awesome lryics. Its whatcha might call 'real' music! Thanks DG.
I remember when I was about 3 and I was in my room playing with Lego and other toys and my dad would put this album on and it was this song which I like the most ever since that day
exactly the same here... :D time has passed :/ But lego still hurts if you step on one
András Köröspataki Sure does :D
I miss it...
Now you gotta fit the dad role, play this song for someone else, I’m gonna play this song for my future children as well.
I like the sound of it! I hope more people do too, I can't imagine anyone being brought up with nowadays music...
20 years ago we discovered you @ Slane..... I remember the whole crowd just freezing and was like "who's this?" you've been rocking our hearts ever since Dave xx my friend and I saw you lat night in New York dancing your heart out and I felt xo happy for you. Cause you were finally able to give back xx love you with all my great xx whatta man xx
Those chord changes....those lyrics....still so damn good.
Perfect album Mr. Gray. Absolute genius composition and lyrics. In my top 5 of all time. 2 of your songs from White Ladder were played in my wedding reception in 07'. Never stop writing sir! Thanks!
Still one of my favourite albums. Brings back lots of memories, some good, some bad. But still an amazing album.
Probably one of the greatest love songs... Ever
I lost my fiancee 2months ago. He loved David Grey and I loved him singing to me and shaking his head like David grey does.. played it at his funeral. Special song xxx
