I love this song, and I never really thought about the lyrics until I heard Gavin sing it. As I listened to it for the hundredth time tonight, I realized that it's about not being afraid of death, not having that fear of losing who you love if there is no afterlife. Because even if there is nothing after we die, we still had the memories we made during life, and that will ensure that you are forever entwined with the one you love.
Damn, makes me think of my grandparents. Grandfather died 9 months after my grandmother. And the night before he died he said don't be sad about what happens tonight, and that he was goin to dance with Sara in glory.
The most beautiful interpreter of songs that I have ever come across.He gets right inside the meaning of the song and plucks at a persons heart-strings.
I've been singing for a long time now, and I'm constantly listening to and making music and I have never ever ever cried cos of a song or a voice. But you sir, you just made me cry. Unbelievable.
I find my self coming back to this song every so often. The first time I heard your cover more than a decade, I fell in love with it. Now, so many years later it continues to offer me comfort in this lost world. I've lost so much since then, but this song helps me to carry on in hope that God will grant me reprieve and happiness.
I love this song so much. I love to sing it. My boyfriend is in the Army and he is deploying overseas pretty soon. I sing this song to him all the time. I saw this and almost cried.
Thank you for this. My cousin just passed away yesterday at eighteen years old before having even as much as experienced a first real relationship. It just knocked the wind out of me and happiness out of my day. While they aren't back and don't know if they ever will, thank you for this song. Its making catharsis far easier.
I will always maintain that this is one of the very best cover videos on youtube: great production quality, beautiful arrangement, and one of the most moving performances I've ever seen. Really well done, and thank you for sharing this wonderful video with us,
I sang this version of the song my sophomore year of high school for a school recital. Now 6 years later, it's my and my boyfriend's song about our love. Amazing ❤
The song made me cry - just because it's so beautiful. And so true. I'm listening to it for weeks now, since a very good friend got the diagnosis that he'll die, soon. Best Death Cab cover on UA-cam.
This song reminds me so much of my great-grandparents who passed away two years ago. They were married for 68 years. My great-grandfather passed away on October 25 at the age of 92. My great-grandmother (who had severe Alzheimers) passed away exactly 5 days later at the age of 93. I had taken a picture just a months before and I snapped it as soon as she said (while looking up at him) "I'd follow you anywhere" and she did exactly that.
This Song Made Me Cry Today Because I Could Imagine Playing This Song In The Last Few Moments That I Have With My Husband And We'll Kiss Each Other One Last Time Before We Sky Dive To Our Death Together.. When We're Like 98 Or Something..
I fell in love with this version when my husband (fiance' at the time. We married last Sunday.) deployed. He often leaves for random periods of time because he is a pilot, and this time is no different. I sit alone again, remembering through your incredible voice that I'm with him, if not physically, than my spirit and heart follows him wherever he may be. Thank you for sharing your incredible talent. I won't even listen to the original anymore. This brings me to happy tears every time.
Yesterday a senior girl from my high school that went missing Monday, was found dead in a pond. I feel this song and the way Gavin sings it really expresses the grief in my town. She was a beautiful girl, well loved by all of her friends and family. I did not personally know her, but tragic events like this really hit home. She was too young, and had so much promise. It's such a shame to see her go. We still don't know if it was suicide or not, but either way, she's in heaven now. Sarah Townsen
Hey Gavin, I felt asleep during this video, not because it was bad, but because you melted my heart, you seriously have a voice of angel. And you piano playing, glorious. Truly beautiful !
I was in a bubbly mood until I heard this. I teared up. No... It did not make me sad or upset. It was just touching and so beautiful. Now I just want to drown myself in such soulful sincere music. Continue creating such amazing music. Truly talented.
I´m a guy who plays and loves rock music and I usually prefer the originals but... This version made me cry. You´re so into what you do. You mean what you sing. You´re voice gives hope, it gives you comfort and at the same time makes you feel sad and makes you think of someone you lost or who means the world to you. You own this song!
i just fell in love. with his voice and everything about this. i love that you put this on piano! it just makes it that much better. and more special for some reason.
your voice makes me want to cry. i mean.. its so soft and whispery and beautiful and there is so. much. artistry in just your voice alone.. i dton even know how to explain it.
This actually made me cry. He puts so much emotion into it. Dear haterz. I dont mind that you have your opinion. but honestly, how many of you can do that?
okay so this incredible thing happened..... I clicked play, and was surfing in other internet windows, and it played, six times on loop..... by itself...... a MIRACLE I say, MIRACLE.
That's really sad. I never said goodbye to someone the way I wanted to.. But listening to music like this and thinking of her is my way of saying goodbye. And it's alright to cry.
OMG. I love this song. Downright love it. This is absolutely amazing~one of my favorite songs ever. Shoot. It even made me cry, a song can't get any better!
@GavinMikhail After hearing this and your song "God In This Moment" I decided to learn piano. I've played guitar for a few years, but you inspired to really pursue music. You made me know that music was going to be my life. Now I'm currently learning piano, ukulele, and upright bass. Thank you so much for you music. Yours Truly, Brady
I just came back from the veterinarian after putting my guinea pig to sleep... She had a large tumor on her cheek and was suffering.. I am literally crying and shaking as I type. I sang this song to her as the sedative was getting to her.. before she fell asleep. The last thing she heard from me was my staggered voice as I finished the chorus. This song is so gorgeous in every way.. You made it all the more emotional and beautiful in all ways You truly are gifted.. Thank you.. *features*
I am usually not a big fan of covers (especially songs that are quite personal to me) I have to be honest but this, this I fell in love with. Beautiful.
I would Like to thank you for posting these covers that sound so pure. I enjoy how much of your heart you pour into it and make it personal. It is good to see people like you in the world.
You are one of those people who can sing softly and still show what an amazing voice you have. From my own experience of your cover and (I assume) everyone else's comments you are truly moving. You showed a whole new side of Ben's song, a peaceful yet full of profound emotion side. You gave a whole new meaning to the song and it takes a very deep emotional understanding of music to do that. I'm now looking up and watching all of your videos and most definitely enjoying them
This is the only version of this song that I've heard That's made me want to cry when I listen to it, it's so beautiful thank you so much for sharing this with the world!
WoW, what a beautiful song,heard the original at the end of Nikita an hr ago and had to search the lyrics,came to this,mind blown,heart broken,eyes wet. Captures it perfect
I must have listened to five other bands cover this song , no one favorite over the others. Just liked the song and enjoyed the different styles of each band.But when I heard Gavin's version it did something I totally wasn't expecting,huge tears swelled up and streamed down my face...What the hell just happened to me ? I don't know what to think ..Great voice!
The best cover ever! I don't want to say that cause I think that I'll be hated for a lot of people... But I have to say that I love this more than the original. Kisses from México
I love this song. Its probably my favorite ever since my boyfriend told me to listen to it. Its reminded me of my dear pets, who I miss so much. They are still alive, but so far away from me. I get emotional whenever the lyrics "there's nothing to cry about, cause we'll hold each other soon" play, I always start crying.
You have a FANTASTIC VOICE. I am SOOOOOO going to learn this on Piano. you're so inspiring Gavin. Between your voice and the piano and..... your passion and soul, I melt!!! Keep sharing your talent. It'll change lives. I know it's already changing my perspective on life.... Just from hearing your covers! God Bless.
I love this song, and I never really thought about the lyrics until I heard Gavin sing it.

Love the way you think ❤
11 years later, and I still love this song more than the original.❤

That is beautiful
That gives me chills in a good way

this soothingly hurts deep down to my veins and bones.
Beautiful crooning voice! This adaption makes me cry... I can see it playing during a tender moment on a movie...
The way you play this song, is incredible.
The most beautiful interpreter of songs that I have ever come across.He gets right inside the meaning of the song and plucks at a persons heart-strings.

I agree
He is singing LOVE to that microphone. If you say you're not tearing up a bit, YOU'RE LIEING!!!

The Death Of Spiderman
I am blown away by how much more powerful this cover is compared to the original. Simply extraordinary.
better than the original I think :)
Still my favourite cover. I’ve been singing this version a lot recently and I’m glad I was able to see the video is still up ❤

this is so beautiful .. it manages to make me think of all the lowest moments of my life and all the happiest at the same time.
There're only a few artists who touched my heart with their music. But you're definitely one of this!

Captivating. Beautiful. Moving. And I'm otherwise speechless.
This is so beautiful, the sound of his voice makes me want to cry.
