My sister played this song in the car the last time that I'd ever see her. Your work has been a source of comfort for me in the hardest of times. God bless you, Johnny Flynn.
I'm so sorry for your loss WuCurdy, that was a beautiful parting song, even though you didn't know it at the time. I lost my brother to drowning, I can picture he and I singing this, he was an avid fisherman & a powerful singer. Wishing you comfort & solace.
Lyrics: All that I have is a river The river is always my home Lord, take me away For I just cannot stay Or I'll sink in my skin and my bones The water sustains me without even trying The water can't drown me, I'm done With my dying Please help me build a small boat One that'll ride on the flow Where the river runs deep And the larger fish creep I'm glad of what keeps me afloat The water sustains me without even trying The water can't drown me, I'm done With my dying Now deeper the water I sail And faster the current I'm in That each night brings the stars And the song in my heart Is a tune for the journeyman's tale The water sustains me without even trying The water can't drown me, I'm done With my dying Now the land that I knew is a dream And the line on the distance grows faint So wide is my river The horizon a sliver The artist has run out of paint Where the blue of the sea meets the sky And the big yellow sun leads me home I'm everywhere now The way is a vow To the wind of each breath by and by The water sustains me without even trying The water can't drown me, I'm done With my dying
I dont think I've ever heard a more beautiful pairing of voice talent. Johnny's voice seems very grounded, while Laura's is more whimsical. They compliment each other perfectly.
I saw Johnny Flyn at new adaptation of Emma, and thought what a brilliant actor and singer, why I have not heard of him? I immediately started to watch all his movies and listen to all his songs. He is brilliant.
I came here to find his music after hearing him in Emma as well. I knew when I heard him sing in the movie, with that voice and range he just HAD to be a musician 🎸 So beautiful, haunting at times, bit jaunty at others - but seriously just damn good!!! 👌 Forever a fan of JF now.
This is so beautiful and your voices blend perfectly. It's taken me 13 years to find this song. Why isn't music as good as this not played on the radio? Thank goodness for UA-cam where we can find the music we love and listen to it.
My brother drowned nearly 3 years ago and listening this song filling my eyes with tears and my heart with grief, that's why this beautiful song has a very special meaning for me. 🌿
I'm so sorry for your loss. I relate to it for the same reason, my brother drowned in 2003. This song brings me comfort. Wishing you consolation, comfort & peace in your broken heart. May our 2 bros R.I.P.
@@qdee6250 I am sorry for your loss too. And seeing how we can relate to each other makes me feel like I am not lonely and it gives the comfort that you wish :)
What a romantic song ! I'm 47 man. French. Carpenter (dumb working class). But that's the first thought that came to my mind : How romantic is this song ! Aren't they so beautiful, so pure ! I am falling in love for Laura Marling…and for Johnny Flynn too !
All that I have is a river The river is always my home Lord, take me away For I just cannot stay Or I'll sink in my skin and my bones The water sustains me without even trying The water can't drown me, I'm done With my dying Please help me build a small boat One that'll ride on the flow Where the river runs deep And the larger fish creep I'm glad of what keeps me afloat The water sustains me without even trying The water can't drown me, I'm done With my dying Now deeper the water I sail And faster the current I'm in That each night brings the stars And the song in my heart Is a tune for the journeyman's tale The water sustains me without even trying The water can't drown me, I'm done With my dying Now the land that I knew is a dream And the line on the distance grows faint So wide is my river The horizon a sliver The artist has run out of paint Where the blue of the sea meets the sky And the big yellow sun leads me home I'm everywhere now The way is a vow To the wind of each breath by and by The water sustains me without even trying The water can't drown me, I'm done With my dying
The Screen Time because, contrary to what the media would have us believe, people are basically pretty nice, and like to show their gratitude that someone has gone to the effort of transcribing the lyrics.
This song has been a great support for me in the past 4 months. It has such a wise old soul, it's hard to imagine it's been around for such a short period of time. Thank you Johnny, best wishes from Ukraine.
Why do we not hear more of this kind of stuff in the mainstream charts, and therefore on the radios etc? These two have got more natural raw talent than pretty much everyone currently in the so called top 100 charts combined!
...I agree. Pandora's Box when trying to fathom the actions of the music industry...I think we know the main factors at play though. Very sad that the most open-minded & appreciative music lovers have to forage for beautiful creations like this though.....but maybe that ultimately adds even more to its beauty once found.
I found this song by watching a sweet knitted frog frolicking by a creek on tiktok and now I'm a fan. What a breathtakingly sad, hopeful, beautiful song! It has the sound and the soul of a pre-war song -- in fact, I was expecting to find an artist who died decades ago.
I can't explain what just happened to me with this song. I heard it for the first time and found myself singing along with it like I had sung it many times before. It felt so familiar and so necessary right now as if my heart had cried out for it to be written.
Just discovering this song, love it so much. Something as simple as a song can set the world right for a little while, thank you. One of the greatest folk songs ever to be written right here folks.
I'm just hearing this for the first time, too, and I so agree with your comments. It does seem this music can just wash over you and bring things into perspective for a moment.
there something about scars and imperfections that makes a person look so human, his scars makes him look real and that hes not invincible. such a lovely human being.
Currently listening to this in lockdown, it's so beautiful.... And it helps me sleep at night right now :) I'm grateful because I have my family and a roof over my head but at the same time I miss my friends so much. The days seem to just be merging into one big day, hopefully this is all over soon. Sending love and prayers to everyone
The HUMAN SPIRIT is like Water.Evil is trying to plug a spout with a single stubborn inhuman hand and WATER burrows many more places to emerge from the ground up.
This song is a mystery for me, I came upon it while walking in the Camino of Santiago. A couple of enthusiastic girls sang it and played it in a ukulele as they walked. It felt right to be singing this tune while examining nature and oneself. Water isn't being created, nor destroyed, only transformed. The idea of change was hope while walking. To all of you out there, "Buen Camino!"
My dad was a hydrogeologist (water scientist) and his last word was "water" (he was thirsty in hospice - you can't give water to the dying I learned...) This is beautiful. Water forever remains a sign from my father's spirit self. He was very, very difficult (okay violent) in real life but now that he's crossed over he's transformed into love, and the water flows. Thank you for this video!
Beautiful thanks for sharing so your a medium or just believe that?? I do that they heal but as I said to my spouse this morning most bad people domt go to heaven so if he was bad and violent he musta been good most of his life and or something special either way I'm glad u feel more love from him and that you've both healed
@@Selfemployedmildautisticperfor i just believe this. :) he was in pain most of his life, that's what i believe. "hurt people hurt people." i'm working to end the cycle of rageaholism, and other "isms".
I fell in love with him at "Emma" and started googling about him. This song is the first videos of him that I watched after Emma, and I fall in love with him again everytime I listen to this song.
Going through a rough time, family and life. Just been listening to this over and over. Here is to life. Remember it keeps flowing. No matter what. Thank you for this and I hope to see more!

Interesting he's playing a doblo for an English 'folk' song. just goes to show you that British (including Irish) folk songs and Bluegrass are one and the same.
Y'all's rendition of this song gives me so much peace. I'm listening to it now right before an audition to help center myself. Thank you for sharing your gifts with the rest of us.
I listen to this when I want to remember someone who was supposed to be a friend, but ended up being an accessory to the end of a marriage. To anyone reading this, live life selflessly, and you will live without regret. It doesn’t have to be more complicated than that.
Thank you. Betrayal happens only with those you know and it is devastating. I’ve been there (under the similar circumstances you mention). Your words of wisdom for living well resonate; it’s been my strategy all along. Sometimes bad things happen and the lessons about them and you, too, can create much sadness and despair AND growth. I’m 7 years out now and working to balance cynicism with hope.
HetLevenuiteenDa That's interesting, I didn't know that. The film is so understated you feel like you're going through everything with her - and with all those fantastic images of Paris and Loire it's just perfect. The song "Little Ticks of Time" was a great addition too.
Ten years later and Laura Marling has become one of the iconic artists of the current time. Her latest album 'Song for Our Daughter' is beautiful and is on my repeat play list. Superb!
Brought here by French movie, "Goodbye, First Love"... (A profound MASTERPIECE)... AND I HAD TO GOOGLE THIS!!!!! WOWOOOWW I AM GOING TO PAINT TO THIS SONG.. IT MOVES ME THAT MUCH...
I'm ten years too late and am totally captivated by this song.
Katerina Pich me too.
Never too late to love a song
It will be with you for the next ten years. :)
Me too, it makes me so happy
No man, you arrived right on time. But I concur this is totally, a captivating perfomance.
13 years late to the party but glad to be here. Thanks Detectorists.
All of us are late to Beethoven!
🥲
Been listening to this for years.. Maybe me feel grateful and happy... 😊
I heard it live in Manchester ❤
Lovely song, and love Detectorists!
My sister played this song in the car the last time that I'd ever see her. Your work has been a source of comfort for me in the hardest of times. God bless you, Johnny Flynn.
WuCurdy what do you mean last time you'd see her?
I guess the poor lass has left this world.
Johnny Flynn has another song called "Raising the Dead". Hope it comforts you too.
I'm so sorry for your loss WuCurdy, that was a beautiful parting song, even though you didn't know it at the time.
I lost my brother to drowning, I can picture he and I singing this, he was an avid fisherman & a powerful singer.
Wishing you comfort & solace.
By far the most beautiful piece I've heard in years. Johnny, Laura, I think I'm gonna fall in love with you both. This simply can't be unheard.
Lyrics:
All that I have is a river
The river is always my home
Lord, take me away
For I just cannot stay
Or I'll sink in my skin and my bones
The water sustains me without even trying
The water can't drown me, I'm done
With my dying
Please help me build a small boat
One that'll ride on the flow
Where the river runs deep
And the larger fish creep
I'm glad of what keeps me afloat
The water sustains me without even trying
The water can't drown me, I'm done
With my dying
Now deeper the water I sail
And faster the current I'm in
That each night brings the stars
And the song in my heart
Is a tune for the journeyman's tale
The water sustains me without even trying
The water can't drown me, I'm done
With my dying
Now the land that I knew is a dream
And the line on the distance grows faint
So wide is my river
The horizon a sliver
The artist has run out of paint
Where the blue of the sea meets the sky
And the big yellow sun leads me home
I'm everywhere now
The way is a vow
To the wind of each breath by and by
The water sustains me without even trying
The water can't drown me, I'm done
With my dying
❤
Thank you
Their voices compliment each other so well. I want to curl up in a ball at their feet and listen to them forever.
and i want to curl up right beside you and laugh for an eternity longer

@@neneyg4041 the end credits played his song my queen bee
I found him through 'Detectorists' a short series by Mackenzie Crook (of Office fame).
Totally agree! I knew nothing about him before Emma. I hope that he becomes more famous in Brazil.
This is one of the most beautiful songs I've ever listened to and I'm 50 years old. So, thank you for so much.
This is my favourite song
if humanity exists anymore, in this geocide world of greed and war....then it lives in music and poetry
This is so beautiful and your voices blend perfectly. It's taken me 13 years to find this song. Why isn't music as good as this not played on the radio? Thank goodness for UA-cam where we can find the music we love and listen to it.
Bloody Hell, who are these people?! I thought I’d never hear good folk music again, outside of ‘60’s folk rock. This is wonderful!
I hope you've since dived into Laura Marling's discography, because there is a lot more of that and a whole lot more in general.
Listen to a band called this is the kit. They are a really good folk band imo

Completely agree!
me too!
He is absolutely gorgeous
So is she
That scar under his eye...he’s dreamy for sure

It is rare that i admire the beauty of another man but he is just archetypal.

Don't put yourself down
carpenters are the best kind of people
In the USA a good carpenter is rare and I view them as artist
Working class, honest sweat, calloused hands are all good. After all, Jesus did the same and it didn't hurt his reputation.😊
The Working class is not dumb,comrade.

Oh man, this is what I think virtually every day. It's so refreshing to hear you say the same
The good stuff like this never makes the charts
Because this stuff is very, very special, And it is reserved for special people
The reason is that the song has content. Chart music is vacuous.

The most beautiful song, exquisitely performed. Your music should be streaming to the world right now, Johnny, a ray of sunlight in these dark times.
Interesting he's playing a doblo for an English 'folk' song. just goes to show you that British (including Irish) folk songs and Bluegrass are one and the same.
this song is so calming. always good when music makes you feel something.
Their voices and the guitar = TRIPLE PERFECT ! ! !
10 years too late but I am here crying in awe of such a beautiful song
It is inevitable and necessary to come back here sometimes ♥️
So old and still one of my favourites. I wish they would have done more together...
the combination of their voices is absolutely sublime
I've been a Marling fan since day one, but this duet is a wonderful revelation to me. Exquisite!!!
This is the song that has come into my mind as I mourn all those poor souls who drowned in the Mediterranean last week.
The most beautiful song. I keep this song close to my heart.
It's funny, I like the simplicity of this performance much more than the actual album version. I feel like here the lyrics resonate so much more.
Totally agree.
Yes. It's raw & real...& ripe.

Beautiful harmony's & it's just great
I shall play this song again and again
can't stop coming back to this vid, can see 'im not alone

I love it. I could listen again and again...
So natural, so beautiful, out of the heart.. right into my heart.
This song actually brought me a tear... my mom passed away and I picture her feeling like this song... It a a beautiful song sung by beautiful people
I'm sorry. She's still here in you. Stay strong.
Johnny looks and is so much like my dad. Come back here just to watch him sing feels like a lullaby.
Beautiful absolutely gorgeous well done its a masterpiece ❤
I remember watching this when it seemed to only have a few thousand views for a while, nice to see it's not been hidden. Lovely song.

Just saw the interview for his new film 'One Life' looks amazing... what a talent
This song means so much to me, I could cry!
Just found Johnny Flynn - and love the material he sings. Seriously beautiful.
Beauty can be so simple. Two voices, one guitar, that's all.
What a splendid duet. Timeless.
This is just excellent. English people are very very very strong and exceptional. Yes.
Played this for my pups burial this morning.
Thank you jonny and Laura ❤
Sorry for your loss.
This song will never die
I listen to this when I want to remember someone who was supposed to be a friend, but ended up being an accessory to the end of a marriage.
To anyone reading this, live life selflessly, and you will live without regret. It doesn’t have to be more complicated than that.
Thank you.
Betrayal happens only with those you know and it is devastating. I’ve been there (under the similar circumstances you mention).
Your words of wisdom for living well resonate; it’s been my strategy all along. Sometimes bad things happen and the lessons about them and you, too, can create much sadness and despair AND growth.
I’m 7 years out now and working to balance cynicism with hope.
This is one of the most beautiful songs ever sung...love it
A Master piece of lyric songs. I love it so much from the first day is was lounched
Absolutely brilliant!
I heard this near the end of a lovely French film - beautiful song, perfect lyrics.
Hey - what movie was it?
Makeda Caban-Chastas Un Amour de Jeunesse (Goodbye First Love)
Jilly Funnell that one became one of my fav movies ever :( they even used Violeta Parra in the soundtrack. Great film! Such a sad story
HetLevenuiteenDa That's interesting, I didn't know that. The film is so understated you feel like you're going through everything with her - and with all those fantastic images of Paris and Loire it's just perfect. The song "Little Ticks of Time" was a great addition too.
HetLevenuiteenDa oh! I'll have to check it then! thanks
It's soothing. It makes me feel childlike and sleepy. I like it very much.
Ten years later and Laura Marling has become one of the iconic artists of the current time. Her latest album 'Song for Our Daughter' is beautiful and is on my repeat play list. Superb!
this is one song I'll carry to the rest of my life.
Brought here by French movie, "Goodbye, First Love"... (A profound MASTERPIECE)... AND I HAD TO GOOGLE THIS!!!!! WOWOOOWW
I AM GOING TO PAINT TO THIS SONG.. IT MOVES ME THAT MUCH...
