I heard this song featured on 911 lone star and I was like gotta Google this and really get the meaning of it. It was so much emotion in the deep grizzly voice with that heavy guitar pluck. Not even into this type of music but that amen was resounding.....A+ for this song
I honestly feel that this song will stand the test of time in the same way as Jeff Buckley's version of Hallelujah. The emotion that builds throughout the song is mesmerising and engulfs you in the song and feeling. An incredibly sad song that really makes you feel the music, utterly stunning. Thank you for gracing us with such a beautiful sound.
Came here from 9 11 lone star. I'm listening to this song and crying about my grandma and it's so insane cuz she is still alive. No one has ever loved me the way she did and does. I love her. I have mourned her a dozen times and she is still alive. Really don't know how to bear it when it becomes real. This song really cuts in deep. Very deep. Now...I will try and wipe my tears and watch some more.
i lost my dad 5 months ago. im only 19, and im not sure how to navigate the world without his advice. i miss him everyday, but this song always makes me feel like hes around, watching over me.
Lord I know the feeling, sometimes you'd go to Mom for advice but when you do it's just so different than what you're used to and then you hesitate and now you put so much thought in your decisions and it's just so lonely. Because I was so much closer to my Dad, and I'm guessing you were too? So all I can say is it'll be okay, maybe not soon, but eventually.
I understand you too! I am missing my mom a lot today and came across this song a few minutes ago. It hurts feeling the loss. Even though she passed a year ago it hurts just as bad as the day she died sometimes.
This song is so unbelievably beautiful and never fails to make me feel calm and at the same time, as though I'm two seconds away from breaking. Beautiful. The pain in his voice gets me every single time.
Saw them perform live in Austin TX a week ago and Joe performed this live. He said he didn’t like performing this song live, but he does it because he wrote the song for his grandfather, who passed away while he was on tour a couple of years ago. His live performance of Amen was of the most moving musical performances I’ve ever seen. Truly beautiful song & amazing band.
This song is so powerful. But when I heard this live I literally bald my eyes out. It was in this very small venue and everyone was just silent. So moving and emotional. Thanks for making this version!!
You guys, this is a reverent and spiritual experience in concert..he shared the story of this song and everyone in the audience was quiet and respectful. It was literally so beautiful.
@@lndiho he had lost his grandfather who he was very very close with. He just said how he’d put his thoughts about him being gone into a song and then started to play. It was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
Thank you for crafting and wielding your sorrow into this masterpiece so each of us that have felt all encompassing grief have a way to put words to this feeling. Listened to this on repeat for MONTHS after a family member’s suicide. May all those we love no longer with us live on through our remembrance.
This song is asking honest questions to a God he's not sure is there. I've been there and He answered. Perhaps that wasn't the writer's intended meaning, but that is what it said to me.
And are those real angels in the magazines? Oh, is there a heaven? You'd know now you've been Are those real stars that hang in the sky? Or are they man made? A trick of the light? Amen, Amen Amen And is there a God up there? 'So, where does he hide? 'Cause the devil is raging inside my mind And is there a moment where it all makes sense? When saying goodbye, doesn't feel like the end? Amen, Amen Amen Sometimes I can't help blaming you For leaving me here, what am I supposed to do? There's plenty of women, there's drink and there's drugs But we both know that won't be enough 'Cause I see you in the daytime, and I hear you at night There's a pale imitation burnt in my eyes I don't want to be here, I don't know what to do Sometimes I'd rather be dead, at least then I'm with you Amen, Amen Amen, Amen Amen, Amen Amen, Amen Amen
The cherry on top for me is the genuine approach to perform this. It’s all in one take from one angle. None of that horrible lip-syncing or anything. This song gets me into tears every time.
I've loved this song a long time, but my dad was just diagnosed with an aggressive firm of cancer. He my best friend, and I'm lost. Thank you for this beautiful song that captures so much of this pain
Ho conosciuto questa canzone per caso, poi ho iniziato a sentirla e risentirla, il fatto che mi accomuna al cantante è che lui fece questa canzone per il nonno appena morto e inizialmente non voleva pubblicarla. Io non avrò fatto una canzone, ma tutto quello che dice mi si addice a pennello. Mio nonno se n’è andato un anno fa, ma ancora oggi ho delle ricadute, mi fa male; ho perso una tra le persone più importanti della mia vita e non l’ho potuta neanche salutare. E questo mi brucia e mi logora piano piano dall’interno.
I cry every time i hear this. I cried when it was first released, i cried when i heard it live the other night, I cried when i heard the backstory, I’m crying now. Its so powerful, so full of emotion and power. It’s one of the most important songs to me and i don’t think it will ever stop being so important.
I lost my twin brother at 28 seven months ago and this song is exactly my feeling. Miss ya and always love you bro. I wish I didn’t have to carry on without you
Lost my dad 7 years ago and have never been able to handle the grief since I was so young when he died. Listening to these lyrics give me comfort knowing that I can be sad.
Perfect! I agree with comment about the likeness to Jeff Buckley. Not so much in the similarity of the song, but in voice and ability to invoke emotion. A tone of Thom Yorke as well. A masterpiece!
So emotional, so beautiful and raw. Seeing this live was stunning, everyone was holding their breath and just listening to this. I remember having goosebumps throughout the whole song and being teary-eyed. It really was quite a moment.
It boggles me to no end that this only has 102k views and 4k likes, are people insane? Did 98k people fall into comas mid song? Because that's the only way to justify not giving this a like.
Wow many times have I had that conversation saying and meaning those exact words....very powerfully shared. I do not how many times I say to God what did I do, I know I must have really messed up to be stuck in this life. "Got the life"
This... this is absolutely wonderful 💓💫💓💎🌟 truly and deeply wonderful... I am literally in tears now, loving it to my core !!! 💓💎💓💎💓 This.. represents one of the true diamonds of life... may God bless your talent and strengthen your spirit 💓 so that you'll keep delighting the world with your wonderful melodies ✨💫✨💎🌟
BROTHER I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO DO WHAT YOU JUST DID! Read if you feel this song as much as I do: I am a middle-class family raised teenager, who spends most of his time dreaming about sounds, and tones, and a guitar that I cannot afford. This song is so relatable as I can actually hear and see myself doing the exact same! You're doing what I love the most, present. I love this song so much I have chills. Thank you for this moment. 🥰 P.S. Excuse my English, it is not my first language. Lots of love to the reader 🥰
I love artists/songs/ music that you can see/ feel (on every level) the core of this beautifully beloved Earth, crack wide open… while connected to the celestial realms via heart cadency. What tears at the core, beams to the sky. #strikesAChord basically
I feel everyone needs a hug after hearing this song.

Bring it in.

Idk why, but every single song from Amber Run give me peace and good feelings
Perfect .
Wtf?
This song never fails to make me emotional.
Came here from 9 11 lone star. I'm listening to this song and crying about my grandma and it's so insane cuz she is still alive. No one has ever loved me the way she did and does. I love her. I have mourned her a dozen times and she is still alive. Really don't know how to bear it when it becomes real. This song really cuts in deep. Very deep.

You will make it. You're not alone
Stay strong, same predicament

Sorry to hear that. The pain you must feel is unfathomable. Stay strong

faceless awesome stay strong, you are loved ❤️ I’m thankful amber run connects us with such beautiful songs
I know the feeling... that's the part that touches me most...
😭

I love this song. My mom passed this year and I'm struggling so hard..
Sorry to hear, hugs
@@brandonjohn5130 thank you so much

9-1-1 lone star S3 E8 brought me here ❣️.
We will ALWAYS love you Gwyn 😭💔
This song is so powerful. But when I heard this live I literally bald my eyes out. It was in this very small venue and everyone was just silent. So moving and emotional. Thanks for making this version!!
Lone Star 911 bought me here and I am so thankful it did.. Beautiful voice, song and lyrics.. 2022
You guys, this is a reverent and spiritual experience in concert..he shared the story of this song and everyone in the audience was quiet and respectful. It was literally so beautiful.
Can you please share the story? I'm sending this to a friend who suffered a great loss. That's what it means to me - about loss and questioning God
@@lndiho he had lost his grandfather who he was very very close with. He just said how he’d put his thoughts about him being gone into a song and then started to play. It was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
I don't wanna be here , I don't know what to do sometimes I'd rather be dead, at least then I'm with you....
I felt that. Miss my Grandma 🙁
forgot about this song for a few years and rediscovering it an old playlist just now god im glad, this song is beautiful
Thank you for crafting and wielding your sorrow into this masterpiece so each of us that have felt all encompassing grief have a way to put words to this feeling. Listened to this on repeat for MONTHS after a family member’s suicide. May all those we love no longer with us live on through our remembrance.
I am not religious but this made me cry..
The entire theater silent..... Joe rang proud and loud. Such a special song for him. Amen!
This song is asking honest questions to a God he's not sure is there. I've been there and He answered. Perhaps that wasn't the writer's intended meaning, but that is what it said to me.
His VOICE!! My GOD! Even if the lyrics weren't enough to bring me to tears that voice would...wow.
I need this version to be on spotify. I love the rawness of his voice and the feel of his emotions. It's so good.
It's on Spotify now
I saw this song live the other week, brought a tear to my eye as he said it was for his grandad who passed away a year and a half ago
Last year in concert he began the song saying "This is the song I wish I sang at my grandfather's funeral" or something like that. Hits hard my guy.
Funnily enough, it's the song I wish I had sang at my brother's funeral.
I would have sung it if I had known it had existed by then.
Exact same reaction when I saw them in Toronto, absolutely breathtaking.
my favorite song, it just hits me so hard every time.
One of the most beautiful songs ever written
Wahnsinn!! So ergreifend, so echt. Du berührst unser Herz und sprichst Emotionen an, die wir brauchen. Danke
And are those real angels in the magazines?
Oh, is there a heaven? You'd know now you've been
Are those real stars that hang in the sky?
Or are they man made? A trick of the light?
Amen, Amen
Amen
And is there a God up there? 'So, where does he hide?
'Cause the devil is raging inside my mind
And is there a moment where it all makes sense?
When saying goodbye, doesn't feel like the end?
Amen, Amen
Amen
Sometimes I can't help blaming you
For leaving me here, what am I supposed to do?
There's plenty of women, there's drink and there's drugs
But we both know that won't be enough
'Cause I see you in the daytime, and I hear you at night
There's a pale imitation burnt in my eyes
I don't want to be here, I don't know what to do
Sometimes I'd rather be dead, at least then I'm with you
Amen, Amen
Amen, Amen
Amen, Amen
Amen, Amen
Amen
Absolutely amazing how someone can put such words in a way that touch your heart and speak emotions you have been searching for.
Thanks to 911- Lone star, I found this song! ❤️
The cherry on top for me is the genuine approach to perform this. It’s all in one take from one angle. None of that horrible lip-syncing or anything. This song gets me into tears every time.
Tears every time . 😢
I've loved this song a long time, but my dad was just diagnosed with an aggressive firm of cancer. He my best friend, and I'm lost. Thank you for this beautiful song that captures so much of this pain
If I have to go to Colorado to see Amber Live I will. His voice is everything ❤
Do it. The Bluebird is a magical place. P.s. it's a smaller venue, so it feels like you are hearing an intimate concert.
This song gives me goosebumps every time he sings "sometimes I'd rather be dead at least then I'll be with you amen"

This pulls on heart strings….God fills our hearts with Love to feel… powerful
Rip dad until we meet again
I cry every time i hear this. I cried when it was first released, i cried when i heard it live the other night, I cried when i heard the backstory, I’m crying now. Its so powerful, so full of emotion and power. It’s one of the most important songs to me and i don’t think it will ever stop being so important.
I haven't found any other song that so completely sums up how losing my husband feels.
This is the new Hallelujah of the new age. What a song wow!
I lost my twin brother at 28 seven months ago and this song is exactly my feeling. Miss ya and always love you bro. I wish I didn’t have to carry on without you
This is the only one of your songs that makes me cry every time😢 it’s really beautiful💞💖
Had to Google after I heard this on 911 lonestar. From 2:00 min on... could loop dat over and over. That Amen at the end is amazing.
I physically feel pain hearing this... tragically beautiful......💔
OUTSTANDING!!
My aunt passed away recently, and I feel this more now than ever. Thank you for your music.
I miss you, Carla.
Lost my dad 7 years ago and have never been able to handle the grief since I was so young when he died. Listening to these lyrics give me comfort knowing that I can be sad.
I just lost my grandfather tonight...
I'm so sorry ❤
Omgosh!! I felt this song!!
One of my favorite bands, your music is so fluid and calming!!! Thank you Amber Run!!! You have helped me get through so much!!!
I love this song. The guitar is so beautiful
he breaks me everytime he screams amen ;w;
Perfect! I agree with comment about the likeness to Jeff Buckley. Not so much in the similarity of the song, but in voice and ability to invoke emotion. A tone of Thom Yorke as well. A masterpiece!
Wow. I just heard this song for the first time, I'm lost for words....... Simply beautiful.
So emotional, so beautiful and raw. Seeing this live was stunning, everyone was holding their breath and just listening to this. I remember having goosebumps throughout the whole song and being teary-eyed. It really was quite a moment.
i love this angel
This song is a masterpiece
It boggles me to no end that this only has 102k views and 4k likes, are people insane? Did 98k people fall into comas mid song? Because that's the only way to justify not giving this a like.
Love it, such an emotional song. I love how much passion and emotion you put into each of your songs. One of my favourite bands.
One of the most powerful songs by Amber Run. Great choice on guitar.
Much better than the over produced version....great stuff...raw and cutting !
Wow many times have I had that conversation saying and meaning those exact words....very powerfully shared.
…art- pure art
🖤 one of my absolute favorites.
Wow many times have I had that conversation saying and meaning those exact words....very powerfully shared. I do not how many times I say to God what did I do, I know I must have really messed up to be stuck in this life. "Got the life"
So powerful, soulful lyrics and haunting music. One of my favourite songs.
Jesus loves you without judging you.
Tears every time I listen...
Every single time I hear this song It reminds me of a girl i used to be in love with. 😢

I love this!! Can't wait to see y'all in Dallas.😊😍❤Im so ready!!
The best song I've heard in my entire life until now!!
I just lost the love of my life. I'm destroyed. So I really relate to sometimes wanting to be dead so at least I'd be with him
Interesting, sad, cool, and good song and vid.
Dear God that was beautiful
Beautiful song and amazing voice
Thanks for your music, I hope to meet you once in my life.
Essa banda me trás tantas lembranças de 2017, último ano do ensino médio, aquele amor temporário, mas tão intenso... Saudades dela..
Heard this live last night and was definitely tearing up ♥️
This is one of my favorite songs ever and I love this version of it so much
This song ALWAYS gets me
How is it that this manages to make a perfect song even more perfect?
I've been waiting for a live version of this song for so long... Thank you!!!
This song feels like a warm cup of tea
im giving you 2 more months. Then this is going to be a hit. the song is awsome just keep doing what your doing
Que linda melodía 🎶 y una buena letra de vida y amores que ya no fueron.
