Lyrics:
All of these lines across my face
Tell you the story of who I am
So many stories of where I've been
And how I got to where I am
But these stories don't mean anything
When you've got no one to tell them to
It's true... I was made for you
I climbed across the mountain tops
Swam all across the ocean blue
I crossed all the lines and I broke all the rules
But baby I broke them all for you
Because even when I was flat broke
You made me feel like a million bucks
You do and I was made for you
#BrandiCarlilie #TheStory #SingerSongwriter
My beautiful daughter died by suicide in 2014, she was 33. She LOVED you and went to any concert she could to see you. This song was played at her service and it’s so beautiful. Finally we are taking Katie’s ashes to Ireland in September, we will stand on the Cliffs of Moher and let her go. We will play ‘The Story’, and cry. You made her so happy. 💜
My heart aches for you. Blessings on you and your precious daughter.
I'm sorry for your loss.
So sorry for you, no words...Hope you receive great kindness in Ireland
Sending a huge warm hug your way Sheila. May you have eternal peace in your heart.
Peace and love
I listen to this every year on my birthday. I have for the past 10 years. Happy Birthday to me.
missY sterlinG happy birthday.
Happy birthday!!
Happy birthday to you! this is the first time that I listen this song, and it's a beautiful song! enjoy it.
Happy birthday:3
Happy Birthday!
This was mine and my husbands wedding song, he was 42 and died 4 months later to cancer. This will forever be my love song to him
I’m so very sorry.
There are no words. Just so sorry for your loss.
Heartfelt condolences and internet hugs to you.
Love knows no boundaries.
Love can pass from this world
to the world of the deceased and vice versa.
My heart goes out to you I couldn’t imagine loosing my wife
LOVE THIS SONG!!!! I listened to it all through my chemo.. I was 5 months pregnant at the time, and I had a 15 month old at home. I had a 16% chance of survival, but I knew I was made for my babies, and I could never give up....10 years later, I broke all the rules, and I broke them all for those two❤
Bless you!
👏👏👏👏🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥I Celebrate God With And For You.
I don’t know you but you kick ass!! Wishing you the best life where ever you are in the world! 🫡
@@MJPamuru20 thank you 😊

She exudes something magical in her voice, something tragic, something sad, something beautiful! Haunting...weeps for the lonely!
+John Hardesty your comment has absolutely hit the spot, she is unique. Loved it.
+John Hardesty well put !
That would make an awesome album title, 'Something tragic, something sad, something beautiful'. :')
John Hardesty -Oricît de bun ar fi originalul,întotdeauna va aparea un alt artist care il va depasi.
OMJuice! WHY!?
That husk/rasp in her voice at 2:53 forever sends chills down my spine; it's so powerful.
Hey buddy I said that 1st 😂
Oh God yes
Yes ❤
Great talent but a lost soul like a lot of younger generation. I like her and feel sorry for her at the same time.
@@Venetiababy1 In what way is she "a lost soul"? Her career's going great; she's got a wonderful partner and kids; and she looks happy and content when out and about and performing. Her life seems pretty solid.
I just watched her perform this on SNL, and this was my first time hearing it. Blown away! She rocked it! Long live this type of rock.
same here!
check her catalog so many and her amazing collaborations and covers, you will be amazed.
Same. Never heard of Brandi until today. I love her voice.
The SNL performance was a gripping and heartfelt one....and reminded me why I love this song.
same!!
“All of our friends who think I’m blessed, they don’t know my head is a mess…” people dealing with mental health issues can really relate. Great to find a song that puts to words the thoughts you always think
Nobody knows me mental illness is hellish Alison
I think most people feel this way at multiple points in their lives. The other day, a girl I've known for a long time, who makes money, has all the nice things, is organized and type A, told me that her life is a mess and said that i have it all together, so it must be nice. I live with my in laws, struggle with ADHD, and feel like things are falling apart at least twice a week.
🙏🏽🕊️❤️
The breaks in her voice are so uniquely, achingly beautiful and hers and hers alone. No one quite compares, IMO.
I totally agree. Her vocal breaks and little yodels are pure gold. Her voice kind of reminds me of Shelby Lynn sometimes.
@@songbird1307 Yes! And the way she sustains notes…just so, so good. What a gift! Not familiar with Shelby Lynn’s work but it seems I should be, based on your comment. Any recommendations on which song/s to start with?
@@mikamamma I haven't heard Shelby Lynn's music in awhile. She is not a current artist. I had a couple of her CD's in the late 90's. I am not sure if she still records music. She started out as country on the 1st CD that I bought and then went more bluesy on the 2nd CD. She played Johnny Cash's mom in the movie Walk the Line. Literally the only song I remember loving back then of hers is called something like "What About the Love We Made". I loved the soul in her voice. Just talking about this makes me want to explore her music again. 🙂
I hate to feel this way (cuz I love Brandi) but I sometimes feel that her vocal breaks are contrived...not natural.
@@457Deb I get ya…I can feel the same way about certain singers, myself. I don’t feel that way about Brandi, though. It may be because I don’t listen to enough of her songs. To me, the way she so skillfully emotes justifies the aching breaks in her voice and I just love it. But I definitely get how it could affect you (and maybe others) differently.
This song makes me cry uncontrollably, and I don't know why.
me too.
+RuthlessXI I know. I get the same way when I listen to it.
+RuthlessXI I'm wondering the same thing. Tears, trembling lip, the whole bit.
It's funny how music can do that to you. It doesn't necessarily have to be a sad song, just a chord, a word or a sentence that catches your attention. That is what makes music so great. Love it.
RuthlessXI 》》 yes, me too.........
2023 still listening to this masterpiece
2024 ❤
Same 😊
"All of these lines across my face, tell you the story of who I am, so many stories of where I've been and how I got to where I am". These words saved me during many rounds of chemo and radiation. I was diagnosed with breast cancer when I had a kindergartener and a 4th grader. My boys were so young, I told my oncology team, bring it on, I can take it...I just have live long enough to get them through high school. The chemo took it's toll and aged me so much faster than my friends, it was hard to deal with. Now I know the lines across my face tell the story of where I've been. 15 years out and one boy has graduated from college and one who is a Junior...both are thriving and I celebrate life every day. Thank you, Brandi for putting into words, what I could not.
Beautiful ❤️
❤
Thanks for writing this. ♥
❤
Are you still with us?
This song is about as “perfect” as a song can be perfect. Her rasp, her breaks, her soul crushing delivery is everything. ❤❤❤
I cant believe I heard this song for the first time today while driving along the Hudson in the Adirondacks. It broke me and I needed it. So many losses and too many deaths contrasted with meaning barely unfolding and so little joy, it all just builds up to a moment when only something so powerful as these words sung from this voice releases the inexpressible, crushing inner vexation of the soul, and I can breathe again. Even for 5 minutes. It'll have to be enough. Thank you, God.
Dig in further, if this song hit ya…the rest of her music will.
It’s amazing how music can do that to you.
God bless you 🙏
It happened in a similar way for my... I just heard this song this morning, in my ten-minute ride to work... I had to look it up (thanks google for the easy search through the audio).
Well put. Lost my brother and Dad recently, can only listen to BC.
What planet have I been on where I missed this masterpiece? I'm ashamed of myself...... This is SO well done. Her voice..... The most convincing I have ver heard..... I believe EVERY WORD she sang. GD ....
I feel you. I heard it from PBS stories feature.
Same! I must have been on the same planet 😂
Right there with you. Just heard her a few days ago.
Me today!
Me too, just found her after seeing Joni Mitchell Grammy performance.
I am wondering why Brandi isn‘t internationally known and hitting all charts. I am from Austria and just found her on UA-cam because of Grey‘s Anatomy. What a brilliant voice!!!
Well, the song was #1 in Portugal and #3 in Norway. Compare that to pathetic #75 back home in the US... It's a shame mainstream tastes favor talentless ass-shakers.
Same
I found it ten years ago because it was played at the end of the final episode of Anthony Bourdain's show "No Reservations". Funny how that happens, huh?
Hallo Silke, ich kenne und liebe Brandi Carlisle schon seit fast 10 Jahren, kaufe (wirklich) jede CD, gehe auf jedes Konzert in der Region, aber ich verstehe auch nicht warum DIESE Frau nicht erfolgreicher ist. Jeder den ich kenne , egal ob Frau oder Mann...
I kind of forgot about her until the Pink tour announcement just recently
2:53 is one of the biggest audiogasms in history. I wait for this moment every time I hear this version of the song. What a masterful break of the voice. Gives me goosebumps, you feel the raw emotion.
👍👍👍👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️🇨🇭🇨🇭
holy shit, you weren't kidding. chills.
Audiogasms brilliant 😂
Listen to the miley collab you will shit your pants
"Audiogasms." An excellent discription. And yes. I too get a chill.
“These stories don’t mean anything if you’ve got no one to tell them to. I was made for you”... That hits me deep.
I can relate Leslie.
This is truly one of the most beautiful songs ever written, and I cannot imagine any other voice delivering it besides that of Brandi Carlile. It reminds us that we all have a "story," and our stories are typically a mixed bag of joy and pain, but despite our struggles, our stories are what make us who we are. This is song elicits so much emotion and should be celebrated as one of the greatest songs of all time.
You should hear LeAnn Rhimes version. It is outstanding too. Very strong!
@@susansmith4749 or Sara Ramirez
I saw her last night in san antonio and I'm absolutely in love with this song. The way she performed with pink was just something that is beautiful!! She sings from her heart and it resonates. 💓
You're all fucking nuts. This song is PERFECT with her voice; she puts sooo much emotion and feeling into the words, it's all just so wonderful.
you're so right, this song makes me cry a little because of the emotion she puts into her singing :)
you are rigth, i hate pop songs, but this one is wonderful
@@martimribeiro7538 considering it’s not really a pop song.
Goosebumps every time
@@anna27446 yep, it’s a powerful song.
I just discovered Brandi C. tonight at the Grammy's - I can't believe I hadn't heard this amazing talented woman before. New fan and here to stay!
videosabia , I saw her in concert in PA, you won’t regret it. I’m glad she finally got her recognition.
Same here. Love her voice, then Googled her and loved her even more. GO SISTER.
You never watched Grey's Anatomy? It's the theme song!
What can I say is also a really nice song of Brandi C.
videosabia why does it says AIR BALOON LILY ALLEN in the description??
Brandi Carlile is the most underappreciated musician in the world today.
She's won Grammys, that's not exactly under appreciated
She’s been getting her props. But I wouldn’t be sad if she made the status of Elvis, Michael, Prince, etc.
@@davids.2703 "Underappreciated" is not "unappreciated."
You're a real wet blanket, congratulations on making the day a little less pleasant....
I haven't changed my mind.
yip
America's national treasure. ❤ Brandi is not only a brilliant musician, she brings people together like no one else.
Possibly the most beautiful and meaningful lyric ever written and the singing comes totally from the heart.
Anybody else here just for the song itself? She has such a powerful voice.
I remember hearing this many years ago and loved it, then I forgot all about it until I saw the movie 'The Lucky One' and this song played as the credits rolled at the end.... Brilliant.
yup
Me❤🤘❤🥰
Brandi is an authentic piece of talent!
Me. My birthday was Saturday and my sister sent me this. This song fits so many relationships. I LOVE HER MUSIC! SO MUCH TALENT
Anyone still looking for this Nostalgic Song 🦋 its 2024 April 🪄 hope you'll find this again.... 🌷🤍
Lot's of Memories. Such a wonderful Song.... >>> 🦋🦋🦋
How can I have gone all these years never noticing such a beautiful song?
Why the hell am I just hearing this song!? She hits the trifecta. Great lyrics, musical composition and a soul searing delivery. I think I blew a few brain cells yesterday when I heard this song for the first time.
I know it by watching Gray's anatomy and that's was two months ago
The Lucky One with Zac Efron - end of movie - last scene on the boat…. GREAT SONG!!!
Welcome 😊

Me too!

Same for me.
I lost my husband of 26 years on Thanksgiving, and this song really touches on everything he was and did for me, I love it.
❤
Everytime I hear Brandi do The Story...for me it's like hearing it the very first time. I still get the goosebumps. What a treasure she is. ❤
my best friend passed away a few weeks ago.. we met in the bar I had started working at when I moved to NorCal over 7 years ago - it was karaoke night and after she heard me sing, she bee-lined over to me and asked if I knew any Brandi Carlile to sing with her - I immediately said, “The Story” and we tore the roof down that night
..the rest is history 😏
we ended up going to see your show in Oakland later that year and it was one of the best times of my entire life - we sang so many of your songs together throughout the years, you have always been our fav
**if you remember the girl at Kate Wolf Festival with the “I FREAKIN’ ❤️ YOU!” sign several years ago, that was me 😆 I was standing with another one of my girlfriends who passed away named Bri, who also absolutely loved you
Brandi, you’ve been my crutch the past few weeks and I want to say thank you, so very much for your words and beautiful voice; if you ever have a show in Iowa.. I will soooo be there!
rest in peace, Em 😌
I'm so sorry for your loss... but that is an amazing story (no pun intended haha)
Pretty amazing how music can bring people together like that and give them memories that they will never forget. That's special. It's actually my first time hearing this song and I can definitely see why you like her & this song so much!
All the best!
Mm
That a very beautiful story . I am so sorry for your loss
Beyond sorry for your loss. I lost my best friend many years ago, and these kind of memories are the ones to hang on to. Beautiful story. ♥️
Aww bless you❤
I lost my soulmate this past May. There is nothing that makes me ugly cry harder than this song and I love it. When I'm stuck in the numbness of greif, just staring into nothing, I know this song will help me to feel again.
Beautiful reminisance
Take care special one xxx
Lori have you Learned to live with the pain yet?
❤
I loved this song before it became a runaway juggernaut. My mother heard me listening to it one day and she fell head over heels with this song. She would ask me to play it for her so often I felt like she loved it almost more than I did. When she departed from this earth and from my life a future without her seemed impossible. I love to come back here and listen to this like she’s still here sitting beside me. I miss you so bad everyday mom the aching and longing never stops. I feel like I’m only half of myself without you. There will never be anyone else like you. I’m trying to measure up but you set the bar too high for me to reach. I can’t hear this song without thinking of you. At least I did get your good taste in music.
Your mother loved YOU as much as this song.
@@benitocarrillo1471 💯💯💯
Your comment broke My soul brother.
Big hug and blessings from México.
" Because love is stronger than death "
I heard it on a promo for the last season of No Reservations and now I always associate it with Anthony Bourdain
♥️
This song came out when I was in high school. I thought it was a love song. Over a decade later I’m sobbing realizing it is a love song but she’s talking about herself. Her younger self is so proud of who she became and the things she did ❤
That's a cool take on it. But I think it's a love song
The lead guitarist wrote not brandi.
I love the hitch in her voice and how she changes pitches. Great song. I intend to print off the lyrics and present them to my wife in a card for our anniversary.
I bet she loved that you did that! Heart touching and so thoughtful.
I always call it the "sour note" but it is the perfect pitch... I love it too
It’s shit
This song makes me think that when it comes to relationships in general (friends, family, lovers etc.), I believe that every single thing we've every been through has, yes made us who we are today, yet they are NOT FOR US TO KEEP FOR OURSELVES. Our stories are meant to be told! Our hurts, our joys, our sorrows. Even our embarrassment and shame are meant to be told! They are meant for others! You never know if your story is going to help someone is some way! Please don't keep things to yourselves! Be an open book! There is so much joy in telling your story!
+Sarah Hi :3 Best comment. I agree
The truth!!!!
+Sarah Hi :3 wonderful comment :) be like an open book to tell your story :)

love your comment couldn't agree more! ♡
This song is an absolute masterpiece, nuff said and hands down. So much pain and emotion that you can feel in this song, and very relatable.
Truly great song. I listen over and over🔥❤️
Wow just wow this song makes my old 68 year old heart happy ..reminds me God blessed me with my wife..
I have never felt so compelled to comment on a song before. In fact, I never have. The passion and depth of the lyrics and her beautiful voice brought me to tears and shook my soul.
Then you should listen to Mitskii, She’s amazing
Did you make an account just to comment? If so that's adorable
Well stated.
You gotta hear stay gentle
Am here from Masked Singer. What a great song, the Sun's version was awesome.
I'm 21 years old currently, but I've been through a lot during these 21 years of my life and this song helped me a lot to overcome a lot of things. I lost my parents very early and I didn't have nobody for me.I grew up as a lonely child and a misunderstood teenager, and I had to mature a lot, a lot. Today I'm better, but I have a lot of trauma inside me, but thanks to God, and to these lyrics, I managed to overcome a good part of them. So thank you Brandi carlile! ❤️💗 I am from Brazil #❤🇧🇷
Alison from Scotland sends her love❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
@@alisonbeveridge4001 Thank you very much😊
I put this here in hope that after days, weeks, even year - whenever someone likes it I will be reminded of this song.
An absolutely genius idea, happy I can be the first of what is sure to be many to remind you that you have amazing musical tastes...
One of my earliest memories is my mom singing this to me when I was just a toddler. After losing my brother/her son and seeing her overcome her grief and continue to love life without limits I can positively say that this song makes me explode into tears.
This comment just made me burst out into tears! 💔

Everytime I hear her voice crack I get goosebumps. You can hear and see her emotions with this song. I love this song.
10 years later and this is still amazing.
♾️👍
Soo 💕 love
God she put so much feeling into every word like she’s punching you in the heart with every note! ❤️ Just Come back every few months an listen to this again just because it’s that damn good!
She punches you in the heart and squeezes tears from your eyes
Spot On!
All of her music is that good!❤️❤️
You hit it...just like she hits every note. Plus her band is so intense. When she was nominated for the Grammys, she came out of nowhere...ahead of her time and was robbed.
Her voice has the je ne sais quois
Under which rock have I been sleeping all these years?
She is just amazing - well at least I have discovered her music at last!
I discovered her about a month ago. I have become a huge fan!
I just discovered her tonight, thanks to my sister. She’s amazing!!
I found Brandi Carlile years ago because of Grey's Anatomy, & have loved her & this song ever since ... she's an amazing singer & this song is one of my very favorites ever !! 💜💜💜 (especially love the rasp, voice break, & emotion she has around 2:53) ...
Brandi has done other amazing work as well, & is also now part of a female group called Highwomen (a takeoff on the name of the male country supergroup called Highwaymen) ... most recently she has done a new album with Tanya Tucker, both singing with her & co-producing it along with Shooter Jennings ...
I just discovered this song (think I'd vaguely heard it before) and when trying to describe it to my husband, told him "I think it's from 2018" haha. I am hooked!
LOL me too. just discovered her an hour ago and am hooked now haha
This song made me cry. It perfectly catches my state of mind at present and has reminded me of who and what counts in my life !!!
Where have I been? I just saw Brandi perform on The Today Show this morning. And now all of her songs are going on my Spotify ASAP!
This song gets everything right. Her voice, the lyrics, the arrangement... wow.
I’m getting married to my best friend in June!!
I’m literally crying of happiness. This is my song to her 🥰
I'm getting married in June also! I think I want to walk down the isle to this song 🥰congrats!!!
Congratulations!
I hope you had a lovely wedding and a blessed future!
Congratulacions
you couldn't have picked a better song than this one... congratulations
One of the greatest songs ever written......period
Brandi is a poet! I am using "The Joke" to teach middle school students empathy and courage in life skills class. Thank you, Brandi, so inspiring!
One of the best songs ever. Period.
This is one of 'those' songs. It's just very well done and has lots of character within. The tone of Brandi's voice melds perfectly with the melody. I can listen to this again and again and not tire of it. Long live 'The Story'.
We come from two different planets (trust me) but I couldn't have said it better. Speaks to the quality of her music.
STUPIDMEMBER whatever pal
I was alluding to the fact that I'm a 75 y.o., Republican Conservative wasp and I figure you're not. I just thought it funny that someone else would word her response almost identically to the one I was about to post. OK, pal?
STUPIDMEMBER Alrightee then... if you flip your numbers you'll get my age. But shhh... keep that under your hat. My apologies for being glib.
Still . . . . . it was good for me, how about you? ;-)
She is one of my favorite singers. She has such a powerful voice. I could cry listening to her sing. Saw her live and was so blown away. She is as awesome live as she is on her albums.
Anybody can cry nowadays, just messing with you 😊
I just discovered this……I’m floored. Epic song writing, Epic vocal ability, Epic melodic lines, floored!
This caused me to stop where I was and sit down and cry.. 4x and counting.
Same here
I have always rolled my eyes when music fans have praised artists for changing things for them, but I'm 38, gay, and from Wyoming. I get it now. She's changed things. For me.
The holy trinity
❤️
I'm happy for you. You made my day.
C Brilliant comment!
💜Happy for you. Music is transformative.
Wow!!!!!I just heard this song on SNL for the first time and it blew me away. As tears run down my face. Wow!!!!
I love this song! This was mine and my Service dog/Best friend's song. She loved it when I would sing this to her. I sang it more than ever when she was towards the end stage of lymphoma and she needed more comforting. She saved my life so many times. I wish I could've saved hers. 💔
Loveyou 3:45
my god. that scream at 2:53 moves everything that's inside of me. great job Brandi
we def. need more depressed songs from you
How am I just discovering such a talent. My goodness!!! My heart can't take this.
Seriously!! I just found her & I'm mad I didn't know about her all along.
All of these lines across my face
Tell you the story of who I am
So many stories of where I've been
And how I got to where I am
But these stories don't mean anything
When you've got no one to tell them to, it's true
I was made for you
I climbed across the mountaintops
Swam all across the ocean blue
I crossed all the lines and I broke all the rules
But baby, I broke them all for you
Oh, because even when I was flat broke
You made me feel like a million bucks, you do
I was made for you
🎸
You see the smile that's on my mouth
Is hiding the words that don't come out
And all of our friends who think that I'm blessed
They don't know my head is a mess
No, they don't know who I really am
And they don't know what I've been through like you do
And I was made for you
All of these lines across my face
Tell you the story of who I am
So many stories of where I've been
And how I got to where I am
But these stories don't mean anything
When you've got no one to tell them to
It's true, I was made for you
Oh, yeah well it's true, that I was made for you
I’ve just heard this song for the very first time and I loved it. And thank you for posting the lyrics makes it even more wonderful.
❤. Thank you
I always tend to tear up when I read all these messages from other people. All I can say is big hugs to those who need it.
She has such clarity in her voice, and you can literally feel the raw emotion in this song! Incredible! Sensational!
I just saw the Masked Singer 2020, and The Sun (Leann Rimes) sang this song. Loved it!Then I suddenly remembered Sara Ramirez singing this song so beautifully on Grey’s Anatomy. Loved her singing too! So here I am. This song brings meaning to me during these difficult times and in a good way.
Then Dolly's interpretation is on another level of storytelling. Thank you Brandi for these powerful words.
i’m 19 years old and i had this song playing over and over again in my mind growing up, my mom used to sing me it as a kid but as i was too young i didn’t know the name or who sang it… but always had the “i was made for you” and the chorus stuck in my mind.
now, almost 13 years later, i finally discovered the songs name and i can’t tell you how emotional it made me :’)
this song brings back so many memories and trying to hang on to the very few lines i remembered was hard.
but i can finally go back as many times as i want, and sing them over and over again, without being afraid of losing memories anymore.
i hope if feels like a warm hug to you like it does to me.
p.s.: i love how everyone has a good story behind listening to this song.
When I discovered this song, I played it over and over again. So achingly beautiful.
I heard this before and loved it, but not sure where. But when I heard her sing this with Miley for New Years last nite. DAMN!!! Such a great powerful song and lyrics. Hit me hard last night. Blew me away!! Amazing song!
same here!
Same for me...
This song brings back so many memories, good and bad 🥰
Possibly from ‘The Lucky One’ by Nicholas Sparks starring Zac Efron … end of the movie when they are on the boat:)
Greys anatomy? This is deffo going to be my first dance song!!!!
" The Lucky One " movie brings me here... Zac Efron + Taylor Schilling... This song in the end!
Brought me here too, love the movie and this song is absolutely beautiful ❤️
This song has been my song for my husband and I for the last 16 years. We struggled a lot together and I can't imagine sharing that with anyone else. The words of this song describe it perfectly.
Story of my life too many things in my heads they don’t know what’s going on
That's me and my husbsnd of 44 years...only he knows my stories 😥
This song used to come on the radio a lot when I was in drug rehab for the first time in 2007…I’d lie in my bed and just weep the entire time thinking about my wife and 2 year old daughter (she’s 17 now). It’s difficult for me to listen to now.
I relapsed shortly after leaving that place, but I’ve been sober now for almost 8 years.
Happy to hear about your long sobriety! When you have even the slightest thought about going back you have to think about your family and daughter. You will overcome this !

Thank you! I still have days where I struggle, even after these 8 years…but you have to keep one foot in front of the other and you have to flat out refuse to gaze into the rearview for too long 🤘🏼😜 It’s helpful to ‘recall’, but not to ‘dwell’!
Thanks again.
Hope you're still hanging in with us bud.
I’m still here! Doing well.
This reads like the soundtrack of my 20's. Nothing but pain, violence, poverty, solitude, struggle . . . and one tiny bright spot: my baby daughter. She looked at me like I was amazing every single day. I wouldn't go back to those days for any other reason but to give us both a huge hug and tell us it would eventually be at least somewhat okay.
Why did I just discover you now? I'm fascinated!
same here, just a few days ago :)
I’m here for what some people would describe as selfish reasons but my therapist, family, and friends would tell me it is for compassion for myself and the grief of heartbreak, loss, and abandonment. Thank you to Brandi and her Friends and family.
Our wedding song in 2016. The words were carved into a wooden plaque for our fifth (Wood) anniversary. Thank you, Brandi!
Who’s still listening to this in 2019? Love this song and her voice.
:-) I am still listening Tonya.... And wishing you and yours all the Best for a very Nice and Bright day!
Me
And me :)
Amazing!!

I cried when Callie sang this
Nicole Ghost like a Baby!!! :'(
So perfect!

The joke and it wasn't me will grab a tear as well
So hard.
There is a video on UA-cam of the actress who played Callie singing it live. 👍
Saw her with Pink in Pittsburgh. What a beautiful surprise she was. She sang a duet with Pink that was incredible. Definitely a fan of Brandi. Her voice is incredible 😁🫶
First time hearing this singer and I'm completely blown away!!
Straight into my top 10 female singers with a bullet. 😁❤❤❤❤❤
Who's here because this song is awesome?
Me too
I'm here because of the current.
ME!!!
I'm here because of my woman, she shared this song with me 😊
The lucky one brought me here, loved her voice..
Who came here because you’ve always loved Brandi!
This song is a great prayer for me. Thank you for all the feelings of security that are attached to it ❤
Brandi is my favorite female vocalist. Love all the tones in her voice. Love, love, love this song.
Estoy enfermo de Covid, y acabo de perder a mi Papá, mientras tenga fuerza seguiré escuchando música y esta canción es de mis favoritas, tantos recuerdos, tantas historias, tanta fuerza en esa guitarra.
Animo! Espero que todo esté bien
Dios te de fuerzas y recobres animo amigo con su ayuda lo lograras.abrazos
Que o Senhor te de o conforto na perda e esperanças de que dias melhores virão !!!!🇧🇷❤️🇧🇷❤️🇧🇷❤️🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
We see you. We love you.
Both Brandi and Sara's interpretation of this song is beautiful that's all that matters

You truly have no idea sweet girl how much your song means to me. I've played it a thousand times. Thank you!!!
Yes, YES! The pure raw beauty of Brandi’s voice break has to be heard to be fully appreciated!
Her voice is Honesty. I love the emotion. The perfect imperfect voice with an honest soul. Love you Brandi!
Hi carol
This song is bittersweet. Time goes by so fast... I'm depressed now.
I may be a newcomer to Belinda Carlile's music, but I absolutely adore her talent!
Brandi Carlile
We’ve all got our Story - you are amazing and I’ve had a really hard time this past year. End of a long relationship, loss of my job, a move, and anxiety and depression. Your music has been a lifeline- your love of family and your songs have given me hope and I’m seeing you in Boston in October. I’m coming alone but that’s alright- this is a gift to myself. Thank you Brandi Carlile ❤ joanie
I can't wait to meet the person who will give a real meaning to this song.
This person is yourself 🙂 nobody knows you better than yourself
Lucie L My girlfriend just told me that I fit this song for her. Guess I’m blessed, right?
@@bryantorres5856 I tell you, keep her by your side, never let her go.
Please meet Katie Tynes
Me too.... but not holding my breathe!!! Putting my faith in God, who is all I have now 🙏
This is the first song that The Love of My Life sang to me while playing his guitar. He played it for our daughter the second she was born. He is the most amazing man!! I Fall in Love with him everyday as if it was the 1st time. We were truly made for each other :)
Katie Tynes Beautiful story! Congrats on finding each other! 💕
You’re so blessed... not all of find the ‘one’ ❣️
So sweet
Shit, I think I did too.
That is so beautiful!! Your blessed. ❤️
.just saw Brandi on the 2023 Grammies...then soon after heard this on my local radio station WXRT who said it was one of her first songs from several years ago... never heard it before Love It
Such a guttural scream. Brings me to tears everytime.
