I saw Passenger live in Vancouver of 2016 at the Orpheum, I met Mike outside the side of the venue as he and his band were leaving, I got to shake his hand and tell him how he inspired me to start singing and playing acoustic guitar. I got Mike to sign the back of my ticket, "It was very nice to meet you Adrian, all the best and well wishes. - Mike xoxo". I was 12 when I accidentally discovered Passenger, I'm 25 now, thank you Mike and the band for all that you do. Please, keep it up ❤
Hello !! Here is the slightly terrifying new video for “ a song for the drunk and broken hearted” which is the title track from my new album (which if you missed the announcement - comes out in January and is available to pre-order from www.passengermusic.com ) I’m a massive fan of the recent joker movie and also the batman trilogy and this song felt like the perfect excuse to dress up as a clown and make everybody feel a little bit uncomfortable … (because this year hasn’t been uncomfortable enough ….😅) I really love this song , for me it tries to capture how depressing sitting in a pub and drinking can be when you’re not with the right people or in the wrong frame of mind . I feel like getting drunk just magnifies how you already feel so if you’re miserable to start with its a tough gig . The clowns (other than being scary and weird) represent the idiotic and exhausting expectation that people should "put on a smile" or a "brave face" … even when things are tough . We’re taught to do it from early age and I think its probably the root of a lot of unhappiness …. I went through a rough time whilst writing these songs and my hope is that they resonate with people going through something similar . A huge thank you to my new band ( btw we’re called "clown daddy and the broken hearts” and we’re available for weddings / bah mitzvahs etc….😇) and the incredible team of people that helped bring this video together ! We had so much fun making it . Thank you so much for watching and as ever please share it about if you can ! Loads of love . Mike 🤡 xx

For those who loves to listen with lyrics👇 Sweet Sunday afternoon September’s golden brown Summer always fades too soon Like the laughter of a clown And shadows fill the room Where sorrows come to drown Your hearts a lead balloon As you sink another one down I know it numbs the way you feel Blurs what is right and what is real When there’s no love left you can steal For the joker laughs along And the jesters outsmarted The gambler tries to win back what he’s lost And the sad man sings a song For the drunk and broken hearted And the fool never knows how much it costs Sweet Sunday afternoon And all that can be heard Is an old familiar tune Though you’ve forgotten half the words And sunlight floods the room Like a silent flock of birds And hopes a red balloon Disappearing through the clouds I know it numbs the way you feel Blurs what is right and what is real And there’s no one here to make a deal with For the joker laughs along And the jesters outsmarted The gambler tries to win back what hes lost And the sad man sings a song For the drunk and broken hearted And the fool never knows how much it costs Well the joker laughs along While the jesters outsmarted The gambler never wins back what he’s lost And the sad man sings a song For the drunk and broken hearted And the fool never knows how much it costs Well the fool he never knows how much it costs 🤗🤗🤗🤗
Lyrics: Sweet Sunday afternoon, September's golden brown Summer always fades too soon like the laughter of a clown Shadows fill the room where sorrows come to drown Your heart’s a lead balloon as you sink another one down I know it numbs the way you feel Blurs what is right and what is real There's no love left you can steal For the joker, laughs along As the jesters outsmarted And the gambler tries to win back what he's lost And the sad man sings a song For the drunk and broken-hearted And the fool, he never knows how much it cost The sweet Sunday afternoon and all that can be heard Is an old, familiar tune for you’ve forgotten half the words The sunlight floods the room like a silent flock of birds And hopes a red balloon, disappearing through the clouds I know it numbs the way you feel Blurs what is right and what is real And there's no one here to make a deal with For the joker, laughs along And the jesters outsmarted And the gambler tries to win back what he's lost Oh, and the sad man, he, sings a song For the drunk and broken-hearted And the fool, he never knows how much it cost Yeah, well, the joker, he laughs along As the jesters outsmarted And the gambler tries to win back what he's lost Oh, and the sad man, he, sings a song For the drunk and broken-hearted Oh, and the fool, he never knows how much it cost Well, the fool, he never knows how much it cost
That's because passenger has a depth that goes beyond the obvious I'm down to a place we can all identify with that's the beauty in the Creations passenger puts out just more of the right thing
I discovered your music 8 years ago and there isn’t a day in which your music doens’t bounce of my walls! My dream is to make a music video with you, and I know that day is coming! ❤️
"For the joker, laughs along And the jesters outsmarted And the gambler tries to win back what he's lost Oh, and the sad man, he, sings a song For the drunk and broken-hearted And the fool, he never knows how much it cost" Just love these line
All three videos play together. Song for the drunk and broken hearted. Suzanne. Help me to remember to forget. BRILLIANT. WATCH IN THAT ORDER. Same bar same characters. Its a perfect ensemble.
My late father loved your song "Let Her Go" when it was popular on the radio. Your singer has such a distinct voice. His birthday is coming up in a couple weeks. Then this song came in my recommended tonight. Thanks for the early birthday present for my dad
Literally found this song tonight after downing half a bottle of red wine and literally looking up “songs for the broken-hearted” and this was one of the first ones to pop up!! Been listening to it on repeat for the past half an hour!! What’s more is I’m 25 aha and more or less broken
Here's The lyrics ❤️❤️❤️ Sweet Sunday afternoon September's golden brown Summer always fades too soon Like the laughter of a clown And shadows fill the room Where sorrows come to drown Your heart's a lead balloon As you sink another one down I know it numbs the way you feel Blurs what is right and what is real And there's no love left you can steal For the joker laughs along As the jester's outsmarted And the gambler tries to win back what he's lost And the sad man sings a song For the drunk and broken hearted And the fool, he never knows how much it costs Sweet Sunday afternoon And all that can be heard Is an old familiar tune Though you've forgotten half the words And sunlight floods the room Like a silent flock of birds And hope's a red balloon Disappearing through the clouds I know it numbs the way you feel Blurs what is right and what is real And there's no one here to make a deal with For the joker laughs along And the jester's outsmarted And the gambler tries to win back what he's lost Oh and the sad man he sings a song For the drunk and broken hearted And the fool, he never knows how much it costs Yeah well the joker he laughs along As the jester's outsmarted And the gambler tries to win back what he's lost Oh and the sad man he sings a song For the drunk and broken hearted Oh and the fool, he never knows how much it costs Well the fool, he never knows how much it costs
I used to listen to Passengers songs many years ago- never really got into his songs until I had my heart broken. Now his songs are like painkillers I must have every day!
His songs always gives me two things and those are Realization and Emptiness.. And the line"Summer always fades too soon like a smile of a clown" I really felt ott
I don't know how Passenger music can make you feel melancholy, even sorrow. It makes you question your actions and choices in life yet it remains hopeful. It encourages you to go on with your life and be better version of you..
You see why I'm always coming to listen to ur songs...cus artists like u are the real soul food needed for lifting up those who are broken without hope of being fixed bk. I jst hope pple start to appreciate good things nd listen to Passenger more often.
For 8 years I listen to your songs. And in 8 years I didn't find a single song to not like. You are a blessing from heaven, and I hope only good things will happen to you.
I can relate myself with this song. A lonely drunk joker for the world, but deep inside a depressed soul, like as me who still now looking for a miracle which is actually not possible anymore 😞 time flies too fast.
@@taoufiqbenallah9029 does it really matter? Its about inner peach..you can not get it, whatever your age or how much money do you have in your pocket.
5 years. I have you my youth. Built you up. Cooked, cleaned, massaged you, held you when you fell into that pit of despair, tried to get you to see yourself how I saw you...as a beautiful soul. I did everything. And it still wasn't enough. I told you what would hurt me....you did it perfectly
every time mike comes up with a song it's like he will get inside of you just to reveal the sadness that you did not know you always had ........ true artist......
Are you serious? I would be embarrassed to accept a Grammy these days. Grammy is for the complete trash in our society. Cardi B and Taylor Swifts of the world. Grammy haven't been prestigious since the 90s. Dont make me puke
This warsteiner is for you my brother, there are people in this world who ruin love for the rest of us but then there are people in this world like you who are trying to fix it for the rest of us. Cheers mate! Thank you
Absolutely brilliant! Man alive, this song strikes a nerve. I only got drunk one time in my life, but, unfortunately, it lasted 37 years. Been sober nigh on 15 years, but it does me good to revisit the darker corners of my soul every now and again. Michael, you are among the great lyricist/poet/composers of a lifetime. Your songs paint vivid imagery of emotions that often go unseen. You do so with broad strokes and subtle lines that express what many feel but few can articulate. Fewer still can do so with such masterful eloquence. As always, you’ve thoroughly nailed it with these latest compositions. Thank you. Well done, indeed!
Thanks for your love and support towards my career. i want to use this platform to say a very big thanks to my esteemed viewer and supporter's. I'm glad my music resonate with you. please feel free to mail me: passengermusicofficialmusic@gmail.com
Sad song for a sweet Sunday afternoon. This song must be what it's like when nobody goes to church anymore. You guys should try Sundays in middle America. Might just put a smile on your long faces.
Joker has left but his memory will never go same as u passenger... What a great piece of art u made...fan of u from algeria... Can't wait to clear my mind with this one...peace
Man, you're spoiling my soul. You're here with your incredible music whenever I need you, helping me to get through rough times. Love you for that so much x
If you die tonight, do you know where you're going? Did you know that Jesus Christ is THE Truth, the life and the only way to Heaven? Revelation 20:15 ''Anyone whose name was not found written in the book of life was thrown into the lake of fire.'' Through Jesus Christ, God offers you a FREE gift - forgiveness. All you need to do is repent, turn away from your sins and evil ways, from now on put your faith completely in Jesus Christ and be obedient to Him. Biblical explanation of the Gospel: God doesn’t want anybody in hell, but you must understand why we deserve hell and why those who refuse to live under His authority will go there. He gave us the law (Ten Commandments) not to make us righteous, but rather to show us our sin (Romans 3:20). God gave us free will and since Adam sinned in the garden, sin is the nature of our flesh and we ALL have sinned. (Romans 3:23) The law demands death to those who sin (Romans 6:23). Since we have all sinned, we all deserve hell. Revelation 21:8 says that all liars will go to hell. Yes, even if you have lied once in your life, you are sentenced to hell - that's how high God's standards are of moral perfection because God is holy and righteous, there is not one sin in Him. For someone to be justified before holy God they have to be sinless, that's why everyone need Jesus Christ - for He lived a sinless life, died on the cross and rose from the dead on the third day. None of us are good in God’s eyes, because for God good means moral perfection. We all have broken God’s commandments, we all have sinned in our lives so none of us are good. ‘’For whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles at just one point is guilty of breaking all of it.’’ (James 2:10). Our carnal mind is hostile to God; it does not submit to God's moral law and it never will (Romans 8:7). We hate the thought of God for the same reason a criminal hates a policeman - we know we have sinned against God and are guilty of it and we don't want to be damned. No good works will ever save you. You can't earn salvation by good works, because God will judge us for our sin. Good News is that Jesus Christ lived a perfect, holy, sinless life and He died for our sins according to the Scriptures, He was buried and He was raised from the dead on the third day according to the Scriptures (1 Corinthians 15:3-4) For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.’’ (John 3:16) We aren’t saved by our good works, but only by the grace of God through faith in Christ. ''For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith - and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God - not by works, so that no one can boast. (Ephesians 2:8-9) Jesus said ‘’it is finished’’ (John 19:30) just before He died on the cross, which means He paid the fine for our sins (past, present, future) to be forgiven only IF we repent and trust in Him. This is how you can get saved from sin and hell - repent of your sins and trust in Jesus Christ. Get to know Him by reading God's Word. So if you sinful people know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him.” (Luke 11:13) ''What then? Shall we sin because we are not under law but under grace? Certainly not!'' (Romans 6:15) ''Repent therefore and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out'' (Acts 3:19) Repentance is a turning away from sin and all evil works, and it always results in changed behavior (Luke 3:8). Biblically, a person who repents does not continue willfully in sin. While sorrow from sin is not equivalent to repentance, it is certainly an element of scriptural repentance (2 Corinthians 7:10). Do not play a hypocrite. ''God is light; in Him there is no darkness at all. If we claim to have fellowship with Him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live out the truth.'' (1 John 1:5-6) (John 3:3) Jesus replied, "Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again." If you have repented and have genuine faith in Jesus Christ then you will receive the gift of Holy Spirit and be born-again spiritually. When you believed, you were marked in Him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God’s possession - to the praise of His glory. (Ephesians 1:13-14) Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him. (John 3:36) ''You will know them by their fruits'' (Matthew 7) If you have been truly born-again with the Holy Spirit and He has regenerated your heart, you will desire righteousnes - to do what is good and righteous in God's eyes, to seek God everyday in His Word and prayer, to strengthen your relationship with God. You will no longer desire to willfully continue living in sin but will want to obey God out of your love for Him because of His amazing grace revealed to us through the death and resurrection of His Son. ''Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.'' (2 Corinthians 5:17) ''For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.'' (Eph 2:10) You will have a testimony - of what your life had been before and how has it changed now when you have surrendered it to Lord Jesus Christ. As a declaration and affirmation of your faith in Jesus Christ, get baptised in water because He commanded us to do so. In John 3:5 Jesus answered, “Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the Spirit.'' ''Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit'' (Matthew 28:19) ''Those who accepted his message were baptized, and about three thousand were added to their number that day.'' (Acts 2:41) ''And this water symbolizes the baptism that now saves you also - not the removal of dirt from the body, but the pledge of a clear conscience toward God - through the resurrection of Jesus Christ,'' (1 Peter 3:21) ''We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life.'' (Romans 6:4) ''Having been buried with him in baptism, in which you were also raised with him through your faith in the working of God, who raised him from the dead.'' (Colossians 2:12) Please get right with God and get to know Jesus Christ personally today before it’s too late, because there’s not much time left! "But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.’’ (Mark 13:32) Get to know Christ through God's Word - Bible. At first I recommend reading Gospel of John and book of Romans. God bless you! Jeremiah 29:13 - ''You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.''
How have you perfectly captured the aesthetic of the Joker film and the English bloke pubs and clubs and then managed to meld them together, all to a beautiful song. Truly class
My expectations were high, but holy shit you absolutely killed it ! I didn't expect that high quality of a MV. The music is upbeat yet deeply depressing, the lyrics are on point. The story telling is brilliant, excellent directing. And the acting too (especially Mike) ! omg I'm totally blown away. What a piece !
The world will either look back now or later... but either way the world with love will grow listening to these tunes and cherishing them... We need more people like Michael
Woah! I have no words. My only wish is to meet you someday and thank you for your music. Thank you for keeping good music alive. I generally don't like music now a days. You're one of the artist who is keeping it real Love you from India Sir ❤💯🇮🇳
I love how the tune is in contrast with the lyrics of the song. Something that you can so easily enjoy the tune of, but that if you truly stop to listen to the words hits you with a nostalgic feeling. Btw I'm so excited of this album coming out! 😍
@@apizlmbg1 that's true ahhahah. Makes me think of Caravan as well, even if the music isn't that upbeat. The first time I listened to it - and I didn't know English very well - I had no idea the lyrics were so sad. I thought it was an happy song
Oh my... Just the intro itself caught me. N the first verse. Not even into the chorus yet. I still believe in music for songs like this. Bless u Mike for making real music still in this music's-dead days. Masterpiece !!!!!!
Sweet Sunday afternoon September's golden brown Summer always fades too soon Like the laughter of a clown And shadows fill the room Where sorrows come to drown Your heart's a lead balloon As you sink another one down I know it numbs the way you feel Blurs what is right and what is real And there's no love left you can steal For the joker laughs along As the jester's outsmarted And the gambler tries to win back what he's lost And the sad man sings a song For the drunk and broken hearted And the fool, he never knows how much it costs Sweet Sunday afternoon And all that can be heard Is an old familiar tune Though you've forgotten half the words And sunlight floods the room Like a silent flock of birds And hope's a red balloon Disappearing through the clouds I know it numbs the way you feel Blurs what is right and what is real And there's no one here to make a deal with For the joker laughs along And the jester's outsmarted And the gambler tries to win back what he's lost Oh and the sad man he sings a song For the drunk and broken hearted And the fool, he never knows how much it costs Yeah well the joker he laughs along As the jester's outsmarted And the gambler tries to win back what he's lost Oh and the sad man he sings a song For the drunk and broken hearted Oh and the fool, he never knows how much it costs Well the fool, he never knows how much it costs
My head canon: The woman sitting alone the endscreen is the same woman that appears at the lyric:" I know it numbs the way you feel" 2:43 And is the same person that appears at 1:09 The director is telling a sad story that fits perfectly with the lyrics (Btw that woman looks like Robin from HIMYM)
my Words can't begin to express how much this song has made me remember my past and how true this is in a day to day life. Well done boys. Making us all proud yet again.

*MESSAGE FROM MIKE* Hello !! Here is the slightly terrifying new video for “ a song for the drunk and broken hearted” which is the title track from my new album (which if you missed the announcement - comes out in January and is available to pre-order from passengermusic.com ) I’m a massive fan of the recent joker movie and also the batman trilogy and this song felt like the perfect excuse to dress up as a clown and make everybody feel a little bit uncomfortable … (because this year hasn’t been uncomfortable enough ….😅) I really love this song , for me it tries to capture how depressing sitting in a pub and drinking can be when you’re not with the right people or in the wrong frame of mind . I feel like getting drunk just magnifies how you already feel so if you’re miserable to start with its a tough gig . The clowns (other than being scary and weird) represent the idiotic and exhausting expectation that people should "put on a smile" or a "brave face" … even when things are tough . We’re taught to do it from early age and I think its probably the root of a lot of unhappiness …. I went through a rough time whilst writing these songs and my hope is that they resonate with people going through something similar. A huge thank you to my new band ( btw we’re called "clown daddy and the broken hearts” and we’re available for weddings / bah mitzvahs etc….😇) and the incredible team of people that helped bring this video together ! We had so much fun making it . Thank you so much for watching and as ever please share it about if you can ! Loads of love . Mike 🤡 xx
Hi Mike, Massive joker movie fan myself and I totally agree with the « put on a smile », feels so wrong when you’re asked to do so. Never managed. I’ve been a fan of your music since I came across one of your songs. Thank you Mike, really. Your music brings me so much calm and inner peace. Congrats, this one is excellent! Love, Paulina
Your songs always speak to me one way or another. They either remind me of times I have encountered; or might be going through currently. Other times they help understand another person's perspective, but always, they make me feel. I have every album. What you write comes across as real and I love the integrity you appeared to have kept despite the fame, unlike many who follow this path. Thanks for the lyrics and the music. Can't wait for the album and will be getting the link to the show too. - Angie
Artistically Passenger is a creator of beautiful scenes & songs indeed damn toughest artist in world wide music industry i love his lyrics😍 & admire him so who else?.......🍁
Brilliant !! As always .I love this gentleman's vocal chords. The first time I heard him sing , I was like, who is this guy , with this unique and distinctive ,amazing voice ?? !!!
The quality of this music video is flawless, everything is so eye catching, the scenes in which he seems to be inside a wooden box are honestly breathtaking, I wasn't expecting such an amazing production good work everyone, I LOVE IT. The song is as crude and soothing as you might expect it coming from Mike, and that's what I love about everything he does, his words are really harsh and realistic but his voice makes them bearable and calm, as if he is giving an advice to a really close friend. Thank you for the feelings, Mike.
I love your comments.. How long have you been listening to her songs if you don't mind me asking. I cried my eyes out first time I listened to this song I miss my wife. God I can't wait for the right woman to come I want to be happy again
Just brilliant and one of the few musicians making music with feeling and more than the same three cords.. keep gong, man is real troubadour. Just travels around sets up a place, starts a show no one knows about and somehow thousands of people find out and come in flocks.. unbelievable.. He writes like an old poet trying to teach the world who he is.. love his lyrics because they ALL seem to Matter and aren’t throw away statements..
I saw Passenger live in Vancouver of 2016 at the Orpheum, I met Mike outside the side of the venue as he and his band were leaving, I got to shake his hand and tell him how he inspired me to start singing and playing acoustic guitar. I got Mike to sign the back of my ticket, "It was very nice to meet you Adrian, all the best and well wishes. - Mike xoxo". I was 12 when I accidentally discovered Passenger, I'm 25 now, thank you Mike and the band for all that you do. Please, keep it up ❤

Same. My god, those lyrics ❤
@Helen cocking I hope you're doing well and taking each day one at a time! I understand it's hard sometimes, but hang in there!
For those who loves to listen with lyrics👇
Sweet Sunday afternoon
September’s golden brown
Summer always fades too soon
Like the laughter of a clown
And shadows fill the room
Where sorrows come to drown
Your hearts a lead balloon
As you sink another one down
I know it numbs the way you feel
Blurs what is right and what is real
When there’s no love left you can steal
For the joker laughs along
And the jesters outsmarted
The gambler tries to win back what he’s lost
And the sad man sings a song
For the drunk and broken hearted
And the fool never knows how much it costs
Sweet Sunday afternoon
And all that can be heard
Is an old familiar tune
Though you’ve forgotten half the words
And sunlight floods the room
Like a silent flock of birds
And hopes a red balloon
Disappearing through the clouds
I know it numbs the way you feel
Blurs what is right and what is real
And there’s no one here to make a deal with
For the joker laughs along
And the jesters outsmarted
The gambler tries to win back what hes lost
And the sad man sings a song
For the drunk and broken hearted
And the fool never knows how much it costs
Well the joker laughs along
While the jesters outsmarted
The gambler never wins back what he’s lost
And the sad man sings a song
For the drunk and broken hearted
And the fool never knows how much it costs
Well the fool he never knows how much it costs
🤗🤗🤗🤗
Thank you! Thank you! I was about to go find them and something told me to check the comments first.
Thank you.
Thanks for the lyrics
Uganda is on since 2012 🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬
thanks bro
@Favour Olusola Most Welcome😍

Sweet Sunday afternoon, September's golden brown
Summer always fades too soon like the laughter of a clown
Shadows fill the room where sorrows come to drown
Your heart’s a lead balloon as you sink another one down
I know it numbs the way you feel
Blurs what is right and what is real
There's no love left you can steal
For the joker, laughs along
As the jesters outsmarted
And the gambler tries to win back what he's lost
And the sad man sings a song
For the drunk and broken-hearted
And the fool, he never knows how much it cost
The sweet Sunday afternoon and all that can be heard
Is an old, familiar tune for you’ve forgotten half the words
The sunlight floods the room like a silent flock of birds
And hopes a red balloon, disappearing through the clouds
I know it numbs the way you feel
Blurs what is right and what is real
And there's no one here to make a deal with
For the joker, laughs along
And the jesters outsmarted
And the gambler tries to win back what he's lost
Oh, and the sad man, he, sings a song
For the drunk and broken-hearted
And the fool, he never knows how much it cost
Yeah, well, the joker, he laughs along
As the jesters outsmarted
And the gambler tries to win back what he's lost
Oh, and the sad man, he, sings a song
For the drunk and broken-hearted
Oh, and the fool, he never knows how much it cost
Well, the fool, he never knows how much it cost
U r the Hero world need 😂❤️
@@devduttsingh7411 literally🔥
Golden ticket awarded!
close but for one line "The sad man sings a song for the drunk and broken hearted" otherwise good job
I think another bit is not quite right - I think the words ' As the jester outsmarts it ' should be ' the jester's outsmarted'....
Neither drunk nor broken, yet enjoying!!
😂

Awww, it's sweet of you to point this out. Good on you man 👍
Good man
Others: Joker is cynical
Passenger: Joker is musical
heh! Joker is an instruments of life... in a way,
That's because passenger has a depth that goes beyond the obvious I'm down to a place we can all identify with that's the beauty in the Creations passenger puts out just more of the right thing
Finally, a song I can feel😌
I discovered your music 8 years ago and there isn’t a day in which your music doens’t bounce of my walls! My dream is to make a music video with you, and I know that day is coming! ❤️
Thanks Mike!
@@AuraProds ?
You'll make it man.. cheers!!!
Hey great
We rooting for you fam you will get there
"For the joker, laughs along
And the jesters outsmarted
And the gambler tries to win back what he's lost
Oh, and the sad man, he, sings a song
For the drunk and broken-hearted
And the fool, he never knows how much it cost"
Just love these line
Nice lyrical song...
❤️
Me too
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤❤😮😮😮😮😅😅😅Me too very Thanks 😊😊😊😊
All three videos play together. Song for the drunk and broken hearted. Suzanne. Help me to remember to forget. BRILLIANT. WATCH IN THAT ORDER. Same bar same characters. Its a perfect ensemble.
My late father loved your song "Let Her Go" when it was popular on the radio. Your singer has such a distinct voice. His birthday is coming up in a couple weeks. Then this song came in my recommended tonight. Thanks for the early birthday present for my dad
Wholesome
Deep condolences
that's deep though.
😊🌷🌼🌻
I believe he's at peace..
When you are listening to Passenger, it feels like he is understanding your pain and trying sing to you personally to help you heal your broken heart!
Literally found this song tonight after downing half a bottle of red wine and literally looking up “songs for the broken-hearted” and this was one of the first ones to pop up!! Been listening to it on repeat for the past half an hour!! What’s more is I’m 25 aha and more or less broken
Here's The lyrics ❤️❤️❤️
Sweet Sunday afternoon
September's golden brown
Summer always fades too soon
Like the laughter of a clown
And shadows fill the room
Where sorrows come to drown
Your heart's a lead balloon
As you sink another one down
I know it numbs the way you feel
Blurs what is right and what is real
And there's no love left you can steal
For the joker laughs along
As the jester's outsmarted
And the gambler tries to win back what he's lost
And the sad man sings a song
For the drunk and broken hearted
And the fool, he never knows how much it costs
Sweet Sunday afternoon
And all that can be heard
Is an old familiar tune
Though you've forgotten half the words
And sunlight floods the room
Like a silent flock of birds
And hope's a red balloon
Disappearing through the clouds
I know it numbs the way you feel
Blurs what is right and what is real
And there's no one here to make a deal with
For the joker laughs along
And the jester's outsmarted
And the gambler tries to win back what he's lost
Oh and the sad man he sings a song
For the drunk and broken hearted
And the fool, he never knows how much it costs
Yeah well the joker he laughs along
As the jester's outsmarted
And the gambler tries to win back what he's lost
Oh and the sad man he sings a song
For the drunk and broken hearted
Oh and the fool, he never knows how much it costs
Well the fool, he never knows how much it costs
Thanks 💜
You're an angel
Thanks
Heroe!
Thank you!
I used to listen to Passengers songs many years ago- never really got into his songs until I had my heart broken.
Now his songs are like painkillers I must have every day!
Literally me rn!! And I’m only 25
Can't get enough of this guy. Songs that look into your soul.
His songs always gives me two things and those are Realization and Emptiness..
And the line"Summer always fades too soon like a smile of a clown"
I really felt ott
His lyrics are outstanding and masterpiece.
Each and everyline is meaningful
He is a goddamn poet.

Hello. Could you please tell me what is about this song, I'm learning English, and I cant understand the meaning, thanks
And about the lyrics I don't know if I listen "for the joker love is so long o the joker laughs along or alone" sorry and thanks
@@gabrielestebanfernandezorb4932 it says “The joker laugh along” :)
Although I love your intimate acoustic songs where its just you and a guitar, it's nice to hear you with a full band as well
I think this song combine passenger's past and his older mindset. He needed to go through a lot of moments to write this masterpiece
I don't know how Passenger music can make you feel melancholy, even sorrow. It makes you question your actions and choices in life yet it remains hopeful. It encourages you to go on with your life and be better version of you..
Beautifully put and very true
Everyone has their own favourite offbeat song of a famous artist. As far as passenger goes, this one is my favourite.
Passengers is the train that takes me to the music realm...
i love his voice so much
i HAD TO PUT THE ZOOM MEETING ON PAUSE FOR THIS PREMIERE. tOTALLY WORTH IT.
Best decision made ;)
@@paulkapoor5391 I can already tell this album will blow me away.
@@hab_il no doubt!!
You can clearly tell that's a comment from 2020 😂
This is the most 2020 comment here
You see why I'm always coming to listen to ur songs...cus artists like u are the real soul food needed for lifting up those who are broken without hope of being fixed bk. I jst hope pple start to appreciate good things nd listen to Passenger more often.
I don't think anyone really knows how fuggin brilliant this actually is
For 8 years I listen to your songs. And in 8 years I didn't find a single song to not like. You are a blessing from heaven, and I hope only good things will happen to you.
I can relate myself with this song. A lonely drunk joker for the world, but deep inside a depressed soul, like as me who still now looking for a miracle which is actually not possible anymore 😞 time flies too fast.
@@bikewatcher5428 I think if he could do that, he definitely would have a long time ago...
@@taoufiqbenallah9029 does it really matter? Its about inner peach..you can not get it, whatever your age or how much money do you have in your pocket.
@tangoedupinbooze thanks for your beautiful comment. Hope for the best
@@taoufiqbenallah9029 age shouldn’t really matter!! I’m 25 here and relapsed into alcoholism despite being two years sober
Same here dude!! Same here
Finally, you wrote a song for me Mr Passenger!
Never going to miss any song from Passenger..
Such a soul touching voice.
Thank you for bringing REAL music back to this world.
5 years. I have you my youth.
Built you up. Cooked, cleaned, massaged you, held you when you fell into that pit of despair, tried to get you to see yourself how I saw you...as a beautiful soul. I did everything. And it still wasn't enough.
I told you what would hurt me....you did it perfectly
The gamble was the heart. The currency was love.
"Wanna hear another song, Murray?"

thankss'
Loll
Passenger has came back with a bang with this song eventhough every song of him is an absolute melody.
every time mike comes up with a song it's like he will get inside of you just to reveal the sadness that you did not know you always had
........ true artist......
Passenger just gets better & better. They have a real grasp on the pulse of a divided, sad nation.
Thank you for your love
Get this man a Grammy
Are you serious? I would be embarrassed to accept a Grammy these days. Grammy is for the complete trash in our society. Cardi B and Taylor Swifts of the world. Grammy haven't been prestigious since the 90s. Dont make me puke
@@ryanbowers1519 That's true. But he does deserve some recognition of his talent.
Definitely this song deserve some awards.
I am 20 and still young .. neither i drink nor i am broken .. but i love his voice everytime he sings :)
How beautifully sad and tearfully lovely at the same time.
This warsteiner is for you my brother, there are people in this world who ruin love for the rest of us but then there are people in this world like you who are trying to fix it for the rest of us. Cheers mate! Thank you
Absolutely brilliant! Man alive, this song strikes a nerve. I only got drunk one time in my life, but, unfortunately, it lasted 37 years. Been sober nigh on 15 years, but it does me good to revisit the darker corners of my soul every now and again. Michael, you are among the great lyricist/poet/composers of a lifetime. Your songs paint vivid imagery of emotions that often go unseen. You do so with broad strokes and subtle lines that express what many feel but few can articulate. Fewer still can do so with such masterful eloquence. As always, you’ve thoroughly nailed it with these latest compositions. Thank you. Well done, indeed!
Woah, he is waiting to go on after himself. The song playing in the intro is 'Remember to Forget'! After all, you are your own hardest act to follow
"I used to think that my life was a tragedy, but now I realize, it's a comedy" makes real sense here
Just finished the Manchester gig...Mike you were absolutely phenomenal. I loved ever minute & thank you so much for everything you gave tonight.
Bro you’re a legend . Buhh you already knew that .
I love Passenger.
"A Song For The Drunk And Broken Hearted" is awesome.
I JUST WANNA SEND SOME LOVE TO MIKE, THE TEAM AND EVERY FAN HERE ✨💜☁💛❤❤❤
Thanks for your love and support towards my career. i want to use this platform to say a very big thanks to my esteemed viewer and supporter's. I'm glad my music resonate with you. please feel free to mail me: passengermusicofficialmusic@gmail.com
This song deserves way more than 1.2 million views it has received thus far. As good as anything he has ever done, and that's saying something.
Peace peace peace peace peace peace peace peace....soooooooooooo much peace in his voice❤
Sad song for a sweet Sunday afternoon. This song must be what it's like when nobody goes to church anymore. You guys should try Sundays in middle America. Might just put a smile on your long faces.
Passengers band hits me most.
Love Passengers band from India
Not drunk, but definitely broken. But ya still drunk in love'.

Bruh, that deep.
I think I share the feeling.
Can't agree any more.

Songs come and go, Passenger stays with you. 🖤
It's been 10 years and your music never disappointed me, I even
Man, you're spoiling my soul. You're here with your incredible music whenever I need you, helping me to get through rough times. Love you for that so much x
I love you too ❤️
Hello Lidia how do you feel when listening to this beautiful song?
This guy has a constant vibe that runs through all his songs.♥️♥️♥️
True that!
If you die tonight, do you know where you're going? Did you know that Jesus Christ is THE Truth, the life and the only way to Heaven?
Revelation 20:15 ''Anyone whose name was not found written in the book of life was thrown into the lake of fire.''
Through Jesus Christ, God offers you a FREE gift - forgiveness. All you need to do is repent, turn away from your sins and evil ways,
from now on put your faith completely in Jesus Christ and be obedient to Him.
Biblical explanation of the Gospel:
God doesn’t want anybody in hell, but you must understand why
we deserve hell and why those who refuse to live under His authority will go
there. He gave us the law (Ten Commandments) not to make us righteous, but
rather to show us our sin (Romans 3:20). God gave us free will and since Adam
sinned in the garden, sin is the nature of our flesh and we ALL have sinned. (Romans 3:23)
The law demands death to those who sin (Romans 6:23). Since we have all sinned, we all deserve hell.
Revelation 21:8 says that all liars will go to hell. Yes, even if you have lied once in your life, you are sentenced to hell - that's how
high God's standards are of moral perfection because God is holy and righteous, there is not one sin in Him.
For someone to be justified before holy God they have to be sinless, that's why everyone need Jesus Christ
- for He lived a sinless life, died on the cross and rose from the dead on the third day.
None of us are good in God’s eyes, because for God good means moral perfection. We all
have broken God’s commandments, we all have sinned in our lives so none of us
are good. ‘’For whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles at just one point is
guilty of breaking all of it.’’ (James 2:10). Our carnal mind is hostile to God; it does not submit
to God's moral law and it never will (Romans 8:7). We hate the thought of God for the same reason a criminal
hates a policeman - we know we have sinned against God and are guilty of it and we don't want to be damned.
No good works will ever save you. You can't earn salvation by good works, because God will judge us for our sin.
Good News is that Jesus Christ lived a perfect, holy, sinless life and He died for our sins according to the Scriptures,
He was buried and He was raised from the dead on the third day according to the Scriptures (1 Corinthians 15:3-4)
For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever
believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.’’ (John 3:16)
We aren’t saved by our good works, but only by the grace of God through faith in Christ.
''For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith - and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God -
not by works, so that no one can boast. (Ephesians 2:8-9)
Jesus said ‘’it is finished’’ (John 19:30) just before He died on the cross, which means He paid the fine for our sins
(past, present, future) to be forgiven only IF we repent and trust in Him.
This is how you can get saved from sin and hell - repent of your sins and trust in Jesus Christ. Get to know Him
by reading God's Word.
So if you sinful people know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him.” (Luke 11:13)
''What then? Shall we sin because we are not under law but under grace? Certainly not!'' (Romans 6:15)
''Repent therefore and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out'' (Acts 3:19)
Repentance is a turning away from sin and all evil works, and it always results in changed behavior (Luke 3:8).
Biblically, a person who repents does not continue willfully in sin.
While sorrow from sin is not equivalent to repentance, it is certainly an element of scriptural repentance (2 Corinthians 7:10).
Do not play a hypocrite. ''God is light; in Him there is no darkness at all.
If we claim to have fellowship with Him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live out the truth.'' (1 John 1:5-6)
(John 3:3) Jesus replied, "Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again."
If you have repented and have genuine faith in Jesus Christ then you will receive the gift of Holy Spirit and be born-again spiritually.
When you believed, you were marked in Him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance
until the redemption of those who are God’s possession - to the praise of His glory. (Ephesians 1:13-14)
Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him. (John 3:36)
''You will know them by their fruits'' (Matthew 7)
If you have been truly born-again with the Holy Spirit and He has regenerated your heart, you will desire righteousnes -
to do what is good and righteous in God's eyes, to seek God everyday in His Word and prayer, to strengthen your relationship with God.
You will no longer desire to willfully continue living in sin but will want to obey God out of your love for Him because of His amazing grace
revealed to us through the death and resurrection of His Son.
''Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.'' (2 Corinthians 5:17)
''For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.'' (Eph 2:10)
You will have a testimony - of what your life had been before and how has it changed now when you have surrendered it to Lord Jesus Christ.
As a declaration and affirmation of your faith in Jesus Christ, get baptised in water because He commanded us to do so.
In John 3:5 Jesus answered, “Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the Spirit.''
''Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit'' (Matthew 28:19)
''Those who accepted his message were baptized, and about three thousand were added to their number that day.'' (Acts 2:41)
''And this water symbolizes the baptism that now saves you also - not the removal of dirt from the body,
but the pledge of a clear conscience toward God - through the resurrection of Jesus Christ,'' (1 Peter 3:21)
''We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that,
just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life.'' (Romans 6:4)
''Having been buried with him in baptism, in which you were also raised with him through your faith in the working of God,
who raised him from the dead.'' (Colossians 2:12)
Please get right with God and get to know Jesus Christ personally today before it’s too late, because there’s not much time left!
"But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.’’ (Mark 13:32)
Get to know Christ through God's Word - Bible. At first I recommend reading Gospel of John and book of Romans. God bless you!
Jeremiah 29:13 - ''You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.''
How have you perfectly captured the aesthetic of the Joker film and the English bloke pubs and clubs and then managed to meld them together, all to a beautiful song. Truly class
Passenger is on another league of his own, he is just too good.
& every lyric made by passenger is a gold!🌞☀️☀️☀️.......🍁
I'm so gutted this album leaked months ago. I'm envious of those who can experience this as a wonderful surprise.
My expectations were high, but holy shit you absolutely killed it !
I didn't expect that high quality of a MV.
The music is upbeat yet deeply depressing, the lyrics are on point.
The story telling is brilliant, excellent directing.
And the acting too (especially Mike) ! omg
I'm totally blown away.
What a piece !
A simple quality like honesty can lead to a billion dollar pay day
The world will either look back now or later...
but either way the world with love will grow listening to these tunes and cherishing them...
We need more people like Michael
Woah! I have no words. My only wish is to meet you someday and thank you for your music. Thank you for keeping good music alive. I generally don't like music now a days. You're one of the artist who is keeping it real
Love you from India Sir ❤💯🇮🇳
What a masterpiece you made ♥️
I love how the tune is in contrast with the lyrics of the song. Something that you can so easily enjoy the tune of, but that if you truly stop to listen to the words hits you with a nostalgic feeling.
Btw I'm so excited of this album coming out! 😍
reminds me of Wrong Direction. the lyrics are so goddamn depressing, but the tune is just so stupidly upbeat hahahah
@@apizlmbg1 that's true ahhahah. Makes me think of Caravan as well, even if the music isn't that upbeat. The first time I listened to it - and I didn't know English very well - I had no idea the lyrics were so sad. I thought it was an happy song
Oh my...
Just the intro itself caught me. N the first verse. Not even into the chorus yet.
I still believe in music for songs like this. Bless u Mike for making real music still in this music's-dead days.
Masterpiece !!!!!!
Passenger your one of the kind we appreciate u man thanks 😊

Shukriya paji 👍
This'll hit you hard when everyone is asleep in the car on a road trip, you alone listening to it feeling the cold breeze of a summer night.
My head canon:
The woman sitting alone the endscreen is the same woman that appears at the lyric:" I know it numbs the way you feel" 2:43
And is the same person that appears at 1:09
The director is telling a sad story that fits perfectly with the lyrics
(Btw that woman looks like Robin from HIMYM)
I thought it was her for a second haha!
Jajajaja same here bro
Well, that theory is out the window, the Suzanne MV just came out to debunk my head canon.
Never mind
The day I meet Passenger in person is gonna be one of the highlights of my life.... There's a bond I have with the music that's unreal....
my Words can't begin to express how much this song has made me remember my past and how true this is in a day to day life. Well done boys. Making us all proud yet again.
Admit it, we're the true fans here. The world will discover this masterpiece later...

*MESSAGE FROM MIKE*
Hello !!
Here is the slightly terrifying new video for “ a song for the drunk and broken hearted” which is the title track from my new album (which if you missed the announcement - comes out in January and is available to pre-order from passengermusic.com )
I’m a massive fan of the recent joker movie and also the batman trilogy and this song felt like the perfect excuse to dress up as a clown and make everybody feel a little bit uncomfortable … (because this year hasn’t been uncomfortable enough ….😅)
I really love this song , for me it tries to capture how depressing sitting in a pub and drinking can be when you’re not with the right people or in the wrong frame of mind . I feel like getting drunk just magnifies how you already feel so if you’re miserable to start with its a tough gig .
The clowns (other than being scary and weird) represent the idiotic and exhausting expectation that people should "put on a smile" or a "brave face" … even when things are tough . We’re taught to do it from early age and I think its probably the root of a lot of unhappiness ….
I went through a rough time whilst writing these songs and my hope is that they resonate with people going through something similar.
A huge thank you to my new band ( btw we’re called "clown daddy and the broken hearts” and we’re available for weddings / bah mitzvahs etc….😇) and the incredible team of people that helped bring this video together ! We had so much fun making it .
Thank you so much for watching and as ever please share it about if you can !
Loads of love .
Mike 🤡 xx
Hi Mike,
Massive joker movie fan myself and I totally agree with the « put on a smile », feels so wrong when you’re asked to do so. Never managed.
I’ve been a fan of your music since I came across one of your songs. Thank you Mike, really. Your music brings me so much calm and inner peace.
Congrats, this one is excellent!
Love,
Paulina
Your songs always speak to me one way or another. They either remind me of times I have encountered; or might be going through currently. Other times they help understand another person's perspective, but always, they make me feel. I have every album. What you write comes across as real and I love the integrity you appeared to have kept despite the fame, unlike many who follow this path. Thanks for the lyrics and the music. Can't wait for the album and will be getting the link to the show too. - Angie
Thank you for all you bring to us!
Artistically Passenger is a creator of beautiful scenes & songs indeed damn toughest artist in world wide music industry i love his lyrics😍 & admire him so who else?.......🍁
Brilliant !! As always .I love this gentleman's vocal chords. The first time I heard him sing , I was like, who is this guy , with this unique and distinctive ,amazing voice ?? !!!
So True for Many SOULS WHO STILL HAVE A CHANCE TO HEAL!!! NICE SONG
It's really sad that the views are so less while positions by ariana grande has crossed millions, this song is GOLDDD!!!
He’s not worried I don’t think I know what you mean but it’s their loss ❤️
Song is gold, and so is she
The quality of this music video is flawless, everything is so eye catching, the scenes in which he seems to be inside a wooden box are honestly breathtaking, I wasn't expecting such an amazing production good work everyone, I LOVE IT. The song is as crude and soothing as you might expect it coming from Mike, and that's what I love about everything he does, his words are really harsh and realistic but his voice makes them bearable and calm, as if he is giving an advice to a really close friend. Thank you for the feelings, Mike.
I love your comments.. How long have you been listening to her songs if you don't mind me asking. I cried my eyes out first time I listened to this song I miss my wife. God I can't wait for the right woman to come I want to be happy again
Just amazing ❤️
I love every Song you Sing.
You are Amazing Singer.
Stay Home + Be Safe
I love you so much!
God Bless Y'all.
Just brilliant and one of the few musicians making music with feeling and more than the same three cords.. keep gong, man is real troubadour. Just travels around sets up a place, starts a show no one knows about and somehow thousands of people find out and come in flocks.. unbelievable..
He writes like an old poet trying to teach the world who he is.. love his lyrics because they ALL seem to Matter and aren’t throw away statements..
