    If you notice the family meal scene, her grandma spills food on herself, and gets up to change clothes. Moments later, Nova points at Grandma's seat and asks where she is. That's when Tom goes to check and comes back in a panic, cause she's gone, which is when she joins her Grandpa "behind the window". I know Nova has said it's about her family and her grandma had died unexpectedly after the song was written, but before the video came out. So yeah, it's super personal for her, and just a freaking beautiful song! #HOG4life 💙

      @Valhalla Pyre Absolutely! I put "behind the window" in quotes, as I feel it's a metaphor for people in heaven watching over us. 💙

      I saw a follow up on this video explaining it ny Nova on a fb live and her Grandmother had Parkinsons and passed away from it so had been after this video. Yes, it is about her parents and all true.

    I cried the first time I heard this. She admitted the song is about her family. The second half is all about her grandma who died only 2 days before this was released and didn’t get to hear it.

    Those two are just beyond a power couple because they both give their all in their music. It's not about anything but being true to themselves because they are just fucking awesome!!!!!

    "There's more to you than the wars you lose." First time I've heard this song and I'm glad you paused it there. I needed to take a breath!
    I think you're not human if you're not misty-eyed by the end of this one. Oh man, the heart that went into this!!!

    She wrote this song about her family. A few days later her grandmother passed away from a heart attack. They filmed the video right away. She held on to this one for about a year.

    I’ve heard the song & watched video countless times and it still makes me cry. I think so many of us can relate to atleast one scenario she talks about, that we can relate to it in some form.

  • @janadean2103

    I feel the beginning of the song allot of us can relate to atleast I can since I grew up with a learning disability was put in many special education classes when really all I needed was a clearer explanation on how to do such and such.

    @lotemylife3006 3 роки тому

    I feel that. In the last 6 months, both of my uncles died kind of unexpected. I mean, one of them had cancer but we expected him to have about half a year more and he died in bed while his wife was showering. My other uncle died two weeks ago while cooking and was found dead in his flat three fays later... Nova and Tom are just so talented

    My youngest son was born with a broken chromosome and every disability you can think of. He was a Beautiful soul,and died at the age of 13,,12 1/2 years longer than Dr's gave him. And I now care for my 91 yr old mom with Alzheimers.....this song really hits home.........I feel like I have a LOT of f*ck to prove to my other 4 chidren, but I did my best.....😪

    As a young man I was scared to have kids.. At 33 I had my son... He is now 14. Sure there are things you lose having a child but you soon learn those things aren't so important. And you gain literally everything from having a child. When I see this video you can tell she understands the parent aspect what he lost gained and how much a parent will do for their kid. I am now 48 lost all my grandparent but 1. This song reminds me of my grandpa barnes out of no where passing away me racing from California to Florida and missing him pass away by 8 hours. Somehow I knew while on the plane he was watching me so when I got in the car with my dad he said I have bad news and I said I know

    Damn. It’s been a few weeks since I’ve seen this video and it still brings a tear to my eye. The pain of loss is clear on her face and I sympathize with her having lost my dad a few months ago. It’s something you never really get over.
