His music is the kind you listen to when you’re madly in love or have your heart totally broken….
totally broken.....just thinking of her beautifle smile, and when she playd this song the first time
Yep, and the song has different meanings and emotions depending on which you're listening to it
The way he says "But I still get to see your face, right? And that's like nothing they can take, right?" breaks my poor little heart every time 😌💙
See I don't think he's asking... I think he's sort of exclaiming it... " I still get to see your face right! And that's like nothing they can take right! " but that's the beautiful thing about music, it's open to interpretation.
One song in, and it's a song I've heard a million times.... But this version just gave me the UGLY cries.
This was one of my favourite songs before the album came out, my word, this version just smashes it. Amazing.
Dermot saved me when I was at my lowest of lows. When I was below empty. His voice , you can feel all his emotions through every word he sings. ❤️
I can easily with the effect that Dermot is capable of impacting into the darkness. His gig is truly an evening I will NOT forget 💜💙🧡❤️. His music led me on my journey back from the edge and the love of 2 fantastic friends who arranged and came along. Dermot Kennedy, I can say that your music saved me 🙏. This song & OUTNUMBERED. Thank you for the music, your vibe, and your dedication to staying true to your sound. ❤❤
Interesting fact, this song doesn't have a chorus, nor a repeated verse ... show how good Dermot is at songwriting
It's not intentional, I think. It's instinct at first then elaborated and evolved like many of his early songs.
This is the best accidental thing I've ever come across. His voice is so beautiful and Raw with emotion
this guy makes me cry ...but i cannot stop listening to him ...it is a beautiful pain
This album is a work of art. I’m constantly in awe of his talent.
From the first acoustic version to this masterpiece of a version, Dermot is killing me with every single thing he releases.
This song will mean more to me than you will ever know. I heard for the first time it today randomly and since I've been home, I have listened to it on repeat for several hours crying so hard that I felt physical pain in my soul. Every word takes me somewhere and heals pain inside me that I didn't even realize I was still holding on to. This has been one of the most spiritual moments I've ever experienced and your song gave that to me. With all of my gratitude and sincerity, thank you for giving this to the world.
“let’s not crack and break and part ways” hits my soul, the feelings Dermot can bring to the surface is so beautifully melancholic 🤍
[Verse 1]
When love was found
I kept my hope just like I'd hoped to
Then sang to the sea for feelings deep blue
And coming down
And we've had problems that we've grown through
But I bet you dream of what you could do
[Verse 2]
At seventeen, I was alright
Was like nothing I could feel inside
And wishing you were here tonight is like holding on
But I still get to see your face, right?
And that's like nothing they can take, right?
So there won't be no feeling in the firelight
Hoping this'll be right
Time to show your worth, child
[Verse 3]
I remember when her heart broke over stubborn shit
That's no way to be living, kid
The angel of death is ruthless
And I'm always thinking summertime with the bikes out
Pushing our luck, getting wiped out
Days with nothing but laughing loud
Underneath my coat, won't you tap my shoulder, hold my hand?
Nights with nothing but dark in there
You could be my armour then
[Verse 4]
Island smiles and cardigans
The nights that we've been drinking in
We're here to help you kill all of this hurt that you've been harboring
Confessions should be better planned
Alone, that night, I'm surely damned
Run away, I'll understand
What's important is this evening I will not forget
Purple, blue, orange, red
These colors of feeling, give me love, I'll put my heart in it
And I think about it all the time
Lights went out, you were fine
You kinda struggle not to shine
[Bridge]
I still love you, though
I still love you, though
I still love you always
So hold me when I'm home, keep the evenings long
Crack and break and part ways
I still love you, though
I still love you, though
I still love you always
So hold me when I'm home, keep the evenings long
Let's not crack and break and part ways
[Outro]
And I wonder if I could let her down
It's for real, it's for real
It's for real, it's for real
Do you hear that deep and haunting voice in the background of this version? Such a chilling sound.
Thought I was going crazy. It actually gave me the creeps... But still think it’s an amazing song!
This song speaks to my soul. 5 years later and I still get chills when I hear it. I always come for a listen when I’m looking inward ❤
Im still here and it's 2023. Dermot is timeless. He feeds the soul.
I’m just not sure I will ever fully grasp how your music hits me so deep. This song I can feel deep in my chest. I immediately start crying and get shivers down my legs. THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR SOUL WITH US!!! *WE ARE NOT WORTHY*
Hits that core and the tears just start gushing right in that last verse for me.. I miss her badly :(
I had the honor of seeing Dermot live in concert and it was the greatest thing ever. His voice is very moving and he is very talented .
When love was found
I kept my hope just like I'd hoped to
Then sang to the sea for feelings deep blue
And coming down
And we've had problems that we've grown through
But I bet you dream of what you could do

And wishing you were here tonight is like holding on

And I wonder if I could let her down
It's for real, it's for real
It's for real, it's for real
To be able to put such deep hidden feelings into words and echo our very emotions from the core of our souls that is What Dermont did and I don't think I'll ever be able to get over his music
Yes yes yes that undercover dark trap beat n sound. Man it adds a whole new level for sure. 👑👑👑
Reminds me of a past relationship, heartbreaking, some love can never be broken even when your apart no matter what has happened , makes my heart break every time I listen to this song I feel every word , amazing lyrics .
The raw emotion , and the lyrics..
The sound at 1:54 was everything, the lyrics and production in this are inspirational.
This song was My heroin withdrawal nightmare. It played over and over in my head as I detoxed ... Heroin free now
This song n his voice literally vibrates my soul!! There is no one else like him. This album is beautiful n deliciously written!! Congratulations Dermot!! I so want him to have all the success in the world yet I want him all to ourselves in this almost secret society lol. Sending love from Las Vegas👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🔥🔥🔥🔥❤️❤️❤️🤗🤗🤗🤗
This song has actually changed my life
Heard him years ago thanks to Spotify's discover weekly playlist. His music came in at the perfect time in my life. Been a fan ever since and so lucky to see him live in Glasgow
2:13 is definitely the best Part of the amazing song
Jesus Christ I could not listen to this song for 2 years and come back to it and it’ll kill me every damn time
I found you in 2015 when I came across the Killer was a Coward. The voice you have is so unique and beautiful. I’m so happy the album is finally here!!!
This guy has a true voice and Sings with passion and feeling!
The way he sang confessions should be better planned still gives me chills
This man is amazing a lyrical genius do you guys see he is rhyming 5 syllables impossible
I love this, I love this, this song have a special effect on me. So powerful and magical. I'm ecstatic!
Hearing this in 2015...
And now he's going to as an upcoming singer.
Omg
🔥 The intensity on this entire album..... can't get enough.
The passion in his voice gives me chills😳🔥🔥
The album isn’t loading on Spotify. But this is so crisp and beautiful. Congratulations Dermot. Thank you for singing to my soul.
Man, my wife and are going through a separation and I don't think I've ever felt like a song was just for me as much as this does. Every word, note, and emotion resonates so deeply.
*Edit* I appreciate the love. It's been a long road, but I can honestly say that I'm coming out of all of this as a better person. My relationship with my wife isn't defined right now , and it's possible it could end in divorce for sure, but we're still friends (might as well be, we share kids and this doesn't need to turn nasty). Anyway, just thought I'd echo some thoughts I've heard and let everyone know that you can come out of trials on top, as a better person.
Thank you
Sorry to hear your going through a difficult time. I wish you nothing but happiness and better times ahead. Stay strong and move forward.
Very difficult time for you friend.
Been there and bought the t shirt.
I promise you that things will get easier.
You posted this 2 months ago, I hope things have gotten better friend
Most beautiful song I’ve ever heard
This is one of my favorite from him
The angel of death is ruthless. It really is. The angel of death doesn’t care who it takes. It doesn’t care about saying goodbye.
So beautiful, Dermot you have a heavenly soul, no words can describe how i feel, if only my Mom was still here she'd definitely love your Voice, 🙏😇👌
This man. I never thought i would have a favorite artist. I never thought someone can be saying what’s in my mind. Thank you
One of the best songs ever written.
What a voice he has I lost my dad on 05/08/20 this just reminds me of him I don't know why I just love it 😇💫❤❤ your amazing ❤
I lost my dad last September and it reminds me of him too. I thought I was the only person - it’s a lLove song through and through.
I jus lost my dad. And I can’t help but keep this on replay. He was my best friend I’ll mourn for all the years I’ll never get to spend with him. But the memories we made I’ll always cherish 🖤 I love you Dad
Has to be one of the greatest songs ever written
OMG i just wanna cry when i listen to this beautiful song and beautiful voice😭😭❤❤
Throughout the album you can tell he uses some techniques and effects similar to Bon Iver and it’s amazing. Whole album is a masterpiece

This was the first song of his I ever heard a few years ago and to hear it come full circle from first single to first album is making me emotional

I lost my sister in a car accident 30yrs ago and this song make me cry every time
Bro every release of this song is better than the last I can’t and they’re all so good 😩❤️❤️
I love this song. I can't help but visualize myself right there with him, hanging out having fun, and everything so perfect. I will see him before my time is up here. ❤️🔥💎⚓️
Every so often I stumble across a song that brings me back to that place across from someone I should have never walked away from and it feels like I am burning all over again. Time is not always kind and I am never truly ready to listen to this song it seems.
When love was found
I kept my hope just like I'd hoped to

And we've had problems that we've grown through

But I still get to see your face, right?
And that's like nothing they can take, right?
So there won't be no feeling in the firelight, hoping this'll be right

I still love you, though

I still love you always

Keep the evenings long
Let's not crack and break and part ways
And I wonder if I could let her down
It's for real, it's for real
It's for real, it's for real
NOTHING ➖beats beauty ‼And 🥰this song is beautiful from start to finish ‼❗
An evening we will not forget is an evening with surprises in good senses. Its good to have great evenings, and days where everything went well and there is no trouble. This doesnt happen very often. Spirituality is like an evening, with surprises, and at the end of that day, we never forget what we went through, and triumphs we experienced in faith.
..when your heart needs to heal.. and you listen to this masterpiece.. damn, that hits hard. "And I wonder if I can let it down.." got me so badly. Makes me cry, but I still love it. Thanks!
@Official dermot kennedy thank you! Of course I will, I truly love your work.. 🤗
A true Legend who needs more attention.. this guy needs more follower.. please!! He is Best of best ! GOD LIKE !
So many emotions in this song.
February 25th my life will change forever when I get to see this magical creature perform live.
Everytime I listen to this song which is pretty much daily it reminders me so much of my fiancé that passed away. The angel of death is ruthless.
This is really the best song from Dermot Kennedy. He was in it deep.
Always will be ❤
Just heard him perform live and it was magical!!!
Best album ever. Make playlist of album. Then new playlist for the acoustic tracks. Equals priceless!
Hope he will come to Denmark, I would love to hear the songs live, 😱
Give me love, I'll put my heart in it
And I think about it all the time
Lights went out, you were fine
You kinda struggle not to shine
Just beautiful written, and the deep voice in the background 😱 really love this song
Dreams blossom in time
'I wonder if I can let he down'

Hi, Dermot, me and my girlfriend went to your live concert tonight at Indianapolis, it was wonderful, thank you and we love your voice so so so much. 8/15/2021, tonight is “ An evening that I will not forget”
Absolutely amazing. .chills. .thanku. .love an god bless x
"this evening I will not forget" gets me everrrryyytimmeeee
Thankyou for being so strong honest and kind
Normalmente escribo en inglés mis comentarios, pero ya no más. Soy de México y tengo aproximadamente un año y medio escuchado a Dermont, es uno de los mejores artistas en muchos aspectos y que en un país donde el reggaeton predomina es difícil encontrar. Espero de todo corazón que en Latinoamérica se pueda dar a conocer más y que tenga la dicha (yo) de que algún día pueda hacer una gira por México.
Thank you Dermont, for so much, for you music and for being such a wonderful artist ❤️
did you guys hear the part from 0:00 to 4:11, that part was amazing
ItsYoBoi DepressedHoe and that 4:12?? ALL KILLIN IT
My favourite part no doubt!!!
Miriam Ramieri facebook name ma'am. You mind?
@@chelsea_rae no that part was just okay
Take my upvote you sonofa gun
