    This song makes me sad, but also gives me a sensation of comfort at the same time

      Seems to be speaking to the sense of betrayal endured and overcome after catching a lover cheating...
      Take a picture of it... grow through it... and find strength in your legacy of faith to live on... move on.

    God I need to talk to someone about how GOOD this is... It makes me feel so alone, especially at 3 AM while thinking about life and reading some great books... There's no way to explain what I'm feeling right now.

      can you give me a book title ?

    • @Whateverable111
      @Whateverable111 9 років тому +5

      Looking for Alaska and Paper Towns by John Green (believe me I hate the clichés but I read them before they got famous) and maybe Innocence by Dean Koontz or The Color Midnight Made by Andrew Winer ;)

    • @melinakit1765
      @melinakit1765 9 років тому +1

      thank you :) i'll try to read all three of them

      this is just how I feel right now, you've nailed it. strange that a song as amazing as this can make you feel so alone isn't it

      Music does so weird things to me and even when it makes me sad I love it.
      I'm okay with everyone having their own taste of music but I just can't imagine someone disliking this song...

    I found my old iPod the other day. I haven't used it in about three years and when I began listening to an old playlist, I rediscovered this song. I'm so annoyed with myself for forgetting this song but on the other hand I'm so happy I discovered it again. Listening to it is like taking a trip down memory lane, like looking at a picture from the past.

    I used to listen to this album when I drove to and from work as an accountant apprentice... it was with the help of this man and his music which drove me to quit my job and follow my heart and study to become a filmmaker. Best decision I've ever made. Thanks Benjo.

    can't believe this doesn't have 1 million views..I never listen to mainstream music on UA-cam and all those popular singers whom I won't even mention have already more than 20 million views. Well , let's hope there's still conscious people around the world who recognize the human race is going down..In every sense of the word.

    saw him last night, best gig of my life, hes such a genuine guy he met me after and i told him how amazing he was and hugged him, he sung without a mic and everybody was silent, ah it was perfect, imagine this live.

  • @rob197982
    @rob197982 14 років тому +4

    such a beautiful song. Brings tears to my eyes everytime i hear it. Everyone keeps banging on about how great Adele's "someone like you" is but i think this is by far the best new release out there at the moment.

    Just been scrolling through Instagram reels as I chilled in my bed. One of your tour adverts came up and it immediately triggered memories as well as happy and sad times for me. I can’t believe I forgot you. Man, this song was, is and will always be beautiful. I found emotion in myself that’s been stifled and forgotten for a long time. Thank you.
