my brother Daniel died almost 40years ago he was older than me and I can remember everything he was a loving brother he was only 15 years old when police and soldiers murdered him. I miss him so much I always listen to this song and cry.😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 when I first hear this song I was shock. 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 thank you mr Elton John 🙏 ❤😭😭😭😭
My name is Daniel, I joined the Air Force in 1974 (age 19) and was assigned in Spain in 1978, where I met and married my wife; 42 years later we’re still married. What makes this song so special, are the friends I left behind and how much they meant to me. Yes, I travel to Spain often and it’s the best place I’ve ever seen.
@@jacel987 Thank you .... there is also a very beautiful song, Italian, entitled "Daniela" .... if you know a female person you can dedicate this song .... the name of the Italian singer is Christian ... I know a lot of music, I can say that Italian music remains the most beautiful in the world ...ua-cam.com/video/bBo7BF-dkbo/v-deo.html
My 38 yr old son just passed... he struggled with depression, bipolar2 & alcoholism - which led to cirrhosis. He gave up his battle 4 wks ago. He loved this song. ❤
@@danielwillis8167 I'm happy for you... prayers going out for you & gratitude for your blessings. I know he's no longer struggling...now the pain is only with those of us that are left here without him - but we'll be reunited one day.😌 Take care of yourself. 🙏 ❤️
My brother Daniel had a blood cancer and gets his treatment but he loss his battle and passed away on Christmas eve of 1983.. on the night before he was taken to the intensive care unit in the hospital, he kept whistling this song and asked my dad to sing with him.. I was in the other room can't bare to be in the room with him as he was asking how was Spain for travelling someday with him.. I know he's in a better place now.. we miss you big guy, always 💙❤
My son Daniel passed away 11/20/2021 and a friend of him played this song with a video of them two having fun, tears don't stop 😭 I miss you so much Son!
I lost my brother Daniel to cancer he was 23 and fought heavily. everytime I hear this song i immediately start to cry .. I love this song so much . I could give up a million things just to hear my brother voice again 💯💪
My father's name was Daniel. I can hardly listen to this song without tears. My father Daniel was the love of my life, never be another man quite like him.
Today I came to listen to this song because I miss my very smart & quiet brother George who passed away after a 1 week illness. He had just married, and left a wife and a 3mths old son Continue to. RIP Bro.
Chained Photography by Karen I'm sorry for your loss. I'm glad that this song will help you remember him, because it has always been one of my favourites. He's in a better place now.
My son Daniel died at birth. I wonder about the life he could have lived for 70 plus years like most people. I love this song but it's hard to listen too. I kept a candle lit for him for years, but eventually tried to move on. It was getting overwhelming. The mother still refuses to even say his name or talk about him. But it made me cherish my other son more, my god his life is so valuable to me.
Still a good song. The song is about the song writer's brother coming back from the Vietnam war with PTSD and not being able to live in his hometown with people always reminding him of the war. His brother left to start a new life in Spain, hoping to leave the ghosts of war behind.
Your exactly right..I listened to this song a million times before I learned the meaning. As a vietnam vet I can relate..Also had a best friend named Daniel who was found in his apartment dead from apparent heart attack.
God bless you for living through a horrible time in America's life. My cousin served in Nam and to this day will not discuss his experiences. The American people owe you and all the others who served a sincere apology and then a heartfelt thank you.
The song hits the heart my name is Nina I always comment on certain songs and I'm here to say to you stay in Courage they usually say here today gone tomorrow it's here a second going to second hold on to your loved ones friends and family all over you never know when we're going to leave here God bless you take care
Love this song so much! It's one of those songs that just gets to you instantly once you hear the first couple of notes. Can't get enough of this masterpiece! Thank you Elton and Bernie! :)
I think we all have a Daniel, although perhaps by a different name, whose mention makes the pain of the loss almost unbearable. Thank you, Sir Elton, for putting into words and beautiful music what most of us can't bear to speak.
My brother passed away almost 4 years ago, this song makes me feel like he's near, he was in the Marines and came home with ptsd, he was the most wonderful man I've ever had the pleasure of growing up with, he had a terrible life as a child, the Marines gave him meaning in his life but he died at age 39 of a massive heart attack, he was a role model for my son, my son is severely autistic but my bro got through to him, since his death my son still asks "Uncle Jo Jo please" I miss him more than any words could ever describe, he was one of a kind, I'd like to say thank you to my wonderful brother for his unconditional love to his family and everyone who had the pleasure of knowing him and thank u to all of our men and women who are in the armed forces, you are ALL MY HERO'S!!!!! LOVE YOU MY BROTHER WHO WAS ALSO A FATHER, UNCLE, FRIEND AND A AMAZING PERSON, who would give his last penny, shirt off his back to those in need!!!!! 💜💜💜💜💜💜
Stay strong and be encouraged I feel the same way I don't have a Daniel but it's other love lost especially in the world I would put this song to all the military people who have passed and going to soon that's what I think your song is about someone was in the military I'm just passed away so many ways that people are leaving here suicide and tends to be one of the biggest especially when it comes down to celebrities silk may God bless you and please stay encouraged the song makes me cry everytime I hear it
I'm so sorry for your lost I'm just someone who always listens to this song also do is know Daniel in my family but I pray that in your well-being and this song always hits my heart God bless you brother and your brother Daniel and your sisters always have the song in your heart because it matters it has a lot of feelings I'm so glad that he made the song it makes me think of other family members who was Gone Too Soon God bless you
My Grandpa’s named Daniel. He passed away almost 2 years ago. I still miss him sometimes. This song always makes me feel close to him. RIP Grandpa. Miss you. Hope you’re doing great up there. 👼
After the loss of my dad this year I have no immediate family left. This song just brings out soo much emotion. I Thank the LORD for his strength because I don't know where I would be now.
So sorry for your loss, Pat. God will always be by your side, you are never completely alone even though it seems like it. Just continue leaning on Him and someone will come along to bring some happiness to you. My only son is named Daniel, we are close and when he was in Bosnia and later in Iraq this song was always playing in the back of my mind. I never stopped worrying about him and now he's out of the military and in his mid=50's I still worry about him. Moms are silly that way, I guess. All the best to you and hope your will find some joy and happiness during the hard time for so many called Christmas.
@@loisaustin6200 Thank you Lois. If only everyone on the internet was as kind hearted to each other . I am a believer in the LORD JESUS and I have some wonderful friends from my church who have invited me to spend Thanksgiving and Christmas with them. Thank you again Lois. Enjoy the time you have with your son and family. May God keep you close and close to him .
My father, Daniel passed away 19 years ago today (3/30/03) at the young age of just 41. I miss him every single day. I love you daddy ❤️ always will be your baby girl 🙏❤️❤️
I was nine when my Uncle Dan passed away so I don't have a lot of memories, but I know all the stories my mother would share with me about her brother and they all come rushing back to me whenever I hear this song. I miss you, Uncle Dan, and can't wait to see you again when the Lord comes to take me home.
Just lost my brother Guilherme (37 year old), last week,(04/07/2017) this pain is killing me. I know this pain will never go away, but I'm sure he is always in our heart. Now he is a star in the face of the sky watching us.
My name is Nina I just read your comment please stay encouraged this song breaks me down also like I keep saying in the comments John Lennon of The Beatles imagine all the people and Michael Jackson song Gone Too Soon death is all around us and normally is here today gone tomorrow it's here a second going a second so grab and hold on to your loved ones tell him you love him cuz we never know when we going to leave here God bless you and may God keep you and keep us all may he rest in his bosom
Having a son named Daniel myself, this beautiful song really stirs up some deep emotions. I cannot listen to it without tears flowing, and might add that the other song that brings on the emotions every time I hear it is "Danny Boy."
Elton is so talented. Singing, writing etc and all his songs tell a story. He is amazing and at another level. When his kids grow up and begin to realize who their father is the will be very very proud.
I’ve heard this song so many times but never paid attention. My father Daniel passed on January 16, 2009, at 46 years old, and this song just brought me to tears. I am named after him. I love you dad and miss you so much ❤️
I was a junior in high school when this song came out and just listening to it, takes me back to a beautiful time in life. Thank you Elton John. You make life beautiful now as it was then, just by listening to your voice and your piano playing and your songs. My wish is to see you in person. Love you always. A Fan, First and Forever.
My brother's name is Ronald. This song always makes me think of him. He travelled a lot in the Air Force and Army. He was 10 years older than me. He passed 7/10/2016. I miss him so much!
I listen to this song when I miss my brother who is still alive, I feel sad because he lives far away and I don't talk to him much... Then I read this.... I feel fucking horrible, I am so sorry. Please accept my deepest condolences from the bottom of my heart mate.
Listening to the American Top 40 and the a long distance dedication of a sister to her brother Daniel who never came back from Vietnam brought tears to my eyes..
My cousin Daniel died on the 5th of January thay played this at his funeral today god it bought back some memory's he will by missed by all this who knew and loved him
I just returned my friend Daniels call from earlier today. This song always reminded me of him when I first left my home many yrs. ago. Now I can talk to Daniel when I want because I now have his # again. So very happy he called.
This reminds of miy cousin Tanya, her parents and her moved to Canada and Tanya and me were never apart until that point. Cousins that may as well have been brother and sister. We have only seen each other once in the last 37yrs since but we mean the world to each other. We can't afford the travel costs but our bond will never be broken.
I love this song. I just read some of the comments and now I am crying. I am so sorry for all you people who lost sons husbands brothers and friends called Daniel. I lost contact with my best friend Daniel after moving to another country. well to be honest it happend some time before that. So I feel like I am Daniel even though its his name :)
My mum named my brother after this song, he hasn't died like the other Daniel's on here, heavenly father bless their souls..... but i miss him as much! Living in different countries and stupid control lockdown laws keeping me from seeing him..... his 40th on the 28th of this month. I miss you so much, hopefully see you soon big bro! Xxx
my brother died just two weeks ago. As a child I idolized him. His name was Jerry not Daniel and I have always loved this song. I never thought it would become so intensely personal. The song gives me a lot of comfort. He was at one with a Golden angel glowing all around him when I saw him last. This morning the angel told me Jerry has his hearing back and is playing music in an Angel Band.
It was great and inspiring to read many of the comments and how one song has touched somany lives. I say music is a universal language. I too have lost my mom and my sister.
This song has so much meaning. My sons name was Jordan, he passed 8 years ago shortly after turning 22. His only brother, Cody has struggled and now plays his guitar and sings, because of him♥️
It's so sad, your loss is terrible tragedy. Losing a child is the worst thing that can happen to parents. I hope you are doing well and wish everything best for you and your family.
"Lord, I miss Daniel..." my precious, 16 year old, only son. I miss you so Daniel Drake 💔 05/31/2000 - 10/10/ 2016. Until we meet again Sweet not an hour goes bye that I don't think of you.
Yeah. Know what you mean. This song always reminded me of my older brother when he was alive. Now he is gone 15 years and this song just makes the tears flow.
Yes everytime am.listening to this song .am .always teary eyes because I remember the love of my life who married with another woman So heartbreaking💔 I miss him so much❤️❤️❤️😥😥😥
My Brother Danny lost his battle for cancer in 1999 at the young age of 31.. thank you for this song Elton john..it helps me cry the tears i have tried to cry for years... and to all you others who have love your Danny.. I think of you also....RIP DANNY BOY.
My Brother Daniel passed away 23 yrs ago. Today is his Birthday. Still... "Oh God I miss Daniel, lord I miss him so much" I am thankful for my time with him, and for this beautiful song that reminds me so much of him, and sums it all up in a couple lines. He was older than me.... I miss Daniel so much... Another year closer My brother.
wow, all these comments are making me cry. my heart goes out to everyone who's lost a loved one (named daniel or not). can't imagine going through something like losing your son or sibling etc. i love you all and i wish you all the best
Yes it always seems to make me cry it's like the song that John Lennon sing imagine imagine all the people you know the Beatles John Lenin that song makes me cry to God bless you all and may the Lord help us all we've missed so much of our family members going to soon even when it comes to that song by Michael Jackson going to soon look around us I'm not trying to preach but look around us and what's happening in our family and everywhere else even when it comes to here a second going to Second just like that God bless you and have a blessed evening
My Grandmother passed away when this song came out...i was 4yrs old&this song came on the radio as we sent My Mum off 2Glasgow, Scotland 4Her Mum's funeral😥 i couldn't ask 4a better Memory than this song💜💜💜
Just came across this song. I love a man named Daniel but distance has been our problem. We met in Ireland by chance (he lives in Spain but was in Ireland for a funeral), then we crossed paths again in Los Angeles (turns out his father lives 30 mins from me). He left back to Spain and later I found a program that allowed me to teach English in Spain. I moved to Spain for him but we still haven’t managed to close the gap. He recently moved on. Doesn’t seem like I’ll have a job this year, so I’m sure I’ll have to pack my bags and go home. Coming across this song.. not sure if it’s the world giving me closure or the world telling me to let go until we meet again. I just know it’s him, I’ve always felt it.
It's actually a tribute song to Viet Nam Vets based on a friend that lost his eyesight in Viet Nam. The whole story is on another you tube video with Rosie O'Donnell, I think.
When this song was released in 1973 I was 7 years old, and I had a friend the same age named Daniel. This song always reminded me of him all those years ago. Unfortunetly he died 3 years ago at the age of 47 from complications brought on by diabetes. At one point he was my step-brother, and we have known each other for 42 years. I had not seen him since 1989, or any of my step-brothers and sisters. I found one of his sisters on Facebook, and arranged to visit them last year after not seeing them for 25 years. As I visited them I found out through them that he had passed away, and also his other sister who died 10 years ago from the same complications. I miss him very much, and wish he was still around so I can talk to him. Daniel you are missed very much by your Mom Rita, Joe, Gloria, and Richard. and myself. You will always and forever remember you in our hearts. You in God's hands now and maybe some day we will see you again my brother.
Love this song. As a Vietnam vet I felt the same way about trying to outrun the nightmares of war. Can't be done so I just deal with it. Never talk about it to anyone, most don't care anyway.
My older brother Daniel passed away a little over a year ago. He committed suicide. This song is AMAZING. Brings tears to my eyes when I hear it...and goosebumps. I love you Dan.
He loves you too 💘 Imma 3 x suicide survivor and quadrapelegic vegetable without any motor skill functions left over from my hanging and coma. Love your life 🧬 and you will see your brother again 🙏❤️ Peace love and blessings to you and yours 🙏 Daniel
My dads name was Daniel. He died May 25th 2012. Miss him so so much. Named my son after him! My glorious toddler. This song is special. Just fir the name and nostalgic tune my dad liked. 🙏❤️
When this song was a hit, I was 13. My mare, me heart horse, suffered a difficult delivery and her beautiful foal Daniel never drew a breath. God bless everyone who has lost a Daniel.
Brenlee Lewallen. I have always felt the grief in this song and I heard it from the day of its release. Suicide is hard to embrace and it is possible that your heart still aches. As it should. It is hard to imagine a greater tragedy Namaste
My name is Nina and I'm just here to say stay encouraged I see all the comments about the song and it does hit home and hit you right in the heart I asked that the Lord strengthens you where you are weak build you up where you been torn down look around so many family members being taken passed away they say here today gone tomorrow is here a second going a second in the twinkling of an eye eye the snap of a finger may God bless us and may the Lord keep us the song saddens me and makes me cry also like John Lennon song Imagine Michael Jackson song going to soon I pray your strength although I'm a stranger what I comment on some things and songs and I just asked the Lord to bless you and continue that's why we need to hold our children our family take if we don't see him everyday when we see him just hug him and tell him you love him you never know when we're going to leave here have a blessed evening
Daniel, my friend, you passed away suddenly Sept. of '09. Everyone else called you Danny, but you were always Daniel to me. I think of you often and hope you are in a happier place.
My big brother Danny (Daniel) passed away on November 18...9 days before my eighth birthday. I miss him to this day and I’m 14. This song is so powerful for me and holds the most special place in my heart.
PTSD keeps me up most nights and for some reason this song makes me feel better..sorry for all the Daniels lost as I lost one also..Just a best friend but still?? Love the song after I found out the meaning..VIETNAM VETS THANKS FROM A BROTHER.
No matter what they did in their life that's still a soul whatever he turn to and he still shall see the Lord I'm just someone who be on UA-cam my name is Nina I'm just giving a spin-off of how everyone is commenting the song makes me cry and thinks of the loved ones that we are lost and it's happening all around us every day especially with our military men and women it's just like the song that John Lennon sings imagine you know imagine all the people I don't know too much about that song but I know that makes me cry just like Michael Jackson's song Gone Too Soon yes I pray your strength be encouraged God bless you
I have an older sister named Kenisha who is 16 this year and she is doing a School Year Abroad program in Zaragoza, Spain and after we left the airport, this song was playing in the car now I play it every time I miss her
It really hits the heart doesn't it I'm just here to say stay in Courage my name is Nina I normally comment on songs may the Lord keep us in may the Lord bless us
My brother Daniel passed away 30 years ago, still missing him and while crying on his birthday this song came up on the radio. What a gift.
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😰😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😥😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😓 it's hard 😭😭😭

My brother Daniel passed away 2 days ago. Have always loved this song.
My father used to play this song every morning but he died some years back and I miss him so much.
To my big brother I lost in 2015. I’ve loved this song for years. I dedicate this to him. I miss him
Still a good song. The song is about the song writer's brother coming back from the Vietnam war with PTSD and not being able to live in his hometown with people always reminding him of the war. His brother left to start a new life in Spain, hoping to leave the ghosts of war behind.
patrick orourke pretty hard to be the same, actually imposible after you have been and seen so much...
Your exactly right..I listened to this song a million times before I learned the meaning. As a vietnam vet I can relate..Also had a best friend named Daniel who was found in his apartment dead from apparent heart attack.
Wow, have always wondered what it meant
God bless you for living through a horrible time in America's life. My cousin served in Nam and to this day will not discuss his experiences. The American people owe you and all the others who served a sincere apology and then a heartfelt thank you.
Thanks. I wondered what this song was about.
My brother Daniel passed away last year, I can’t believe I’ve only just discovered this song now, it’s such a beautiful song

Stay strong mate, your brother will always be with you and you'll always will be with him. Here, and when you guys meet again.
A close older friend of mine, introduced me to this song on my birthday a few years ago. I cried like a kid.
Listen to the fuel version
My brother loved this song, when he passed, I requested this song at his funeral. I remember him with tears in my eyes, whenever I hear it.

All the best to you and hope your will find some joy and happiness during the hard time for so many called Christmas.
@@loisaustin6200 Thank you Lois. If only everyone on the internet was as kind hearted to each other .
I am a believer in the LORD JESUS and I have some wonderful friends from my church who have invited me to spend Thanksgiving and Christmas with them.
Thank you again Lois. Enjoy the time you have with your son and family. May God keep you close and close to him .
hoping one day when I pass away someone will listen to this song and remember all about me.
My father, Daniel passed away 19 years ago today (3/30/03) at the young age of just 41. I miss him every single day. I love you daddy ❤️ always will be your baby girl 🙏❤️❤️
I was nine when my Uncle Dan passed away so I don't have a lot of memories, but I know all the stories my mother would share with me about her brother and they all come rushing back to me whenever I hear this song. I miss you, Uncle Dan, and can't wait to see you again when the Lord comes to take me home.
I don't know any Daniels but y'all make me cry.
Just lost my brother Guilherme (37 year old), last week,(04/07/2017) this pain is killing me. I know this pain will never go away, but I'm sure he is always in our heart. Now he is a star in the face of the sky watching us.
Kathleen Magalhaes 💙✝️❣️🙏🏻
So sorry
Sorry kathleen
My name is Nina I just read your comment please stay encouraged this song breaks me down also like I keep saying in the comments John Lennon of The Beatles imagine all the people and Michael Jackson song Gone Too Soon death is all around us and normally is here today gone tomorrow it's here a second going a second so grab and hold on to your loved ones tell him you love him cuz we never know when we going to leave here God bless you and may God keep you and keep us all may he rest in his bosom
Having a son named Daniel myself, this beautiful song really stirs up some deep emotions. I cannot listen to it without tears flowing, and might add that the other song that brings on the emotions every time I hear it is "Danny Boy."
Elton is so talented. Singing, writing etc and all his songs tell a story. He is amazing and at another level. When his kids grow up and begin to realize who their father is the will be very very proud.
Thank God for the 70's .... anyone who didn't experience life back then missed one of the best times in history.
I just heard this from our neighbor, and I love it. Nice Music.
I’ve heard this song so many times but never paid attention. My father Daniel passed on January 16, 2009, at 46 years old, and this song just brought me to tears. I am named after him. I love you dad and miss you so much ❤️
I was a junior in high school when this song came out and just listening to it, takes me back to a beautiful time in life. Thank you Elton John. You make life beautiful now as it was then, just by listening to your voice and your piano playing and your songs. My wish is to see you in person. Love you always. A Fan, First and Forever.
This is one of the first songs I loved from Elton John when I was growing up.
My brother's name is Ronald. This song always makes me think of him. He travelled a lot in the Air Force and Army. He was 10 years older than me. He passed 7/10/2016. I miss him so much!
Tonight I am missing my Son Daniel 1982-2012
Sorry to hear it. Good luck to you
I´m so sorry...
I listen to this song when I miss my brother who is still alive, I feel sad because he lives far away and I don't talk to him much... Then I read this.... I feel fucking horrible, I am so sorry. Please accept my deepest condolences from the bottom of my heart mate.
I'm so sorry about your loss of your son. Outliving your child is a terrible thing, It happened to me also. I wish you peace.
Listening to the American Top 40 and the a long distance dedication of a sister to her brother Daniel who never came back from Vietnam brought tears to my eyes..
My son's name was Caden, but this song still hits just as hard. 12/25/14-04/29/15
My cousin Daniel died on the 5th of January thay played this at his funeral today god it bought back some memory's he will by missed by all this who knew and loved him
I just returned my friend Daniels call from earlier today. This song always reminded me of him when I first left my home many yrs. ago. Now I can talk to Daniel when I want because I now have his # again. So very happy he called.
This reminds of miy cousin Tanya, her parents and her moved to Canada and Tanya and me were never apart until that point. Cousins that may as well have been brother and sister. We have only seen each other once in the last 37yrs since but we mean the world to each other. We can't afford the travel costs but our bond will never be broken.
I never thought I'd get over the sight of seeing my mother take her life. And then I listened to this song. Life is life.
Much love.
my husband is daniel also he is 48 yrs old and still listening to this song he truly love this so much❤️
I love this song. I just read some of the comments and now I am crying. I am so sorry for all you people who lost sons husbands brothers and friends called Daniel. I lost contact with my best friend Daniel after moving to another country. well to be honest it happend some time before that. So I feel like I am Daniel even though its his name :)
Ulrich Enevoldsen this happened to me 😭😭
Comments here are very old. April 2021. Still listening. Hope this song never dies.
I think this was the first Elton I heard on the radio. It's one of my favorite Elton hits.
My mum named my brother after this song, he hasn't died like the other Daniel's on here, heavenly father bless their souls..... but i miss him as much!
Living in different countries and stupid control lockdown laws keeping me from seeing him..... his 40th on the 28th of this month. I miss you so much, hopefully see you soon big bro! Xxx
my brother died just two weeks ago. As a child I idolized him. His name was Jerry not Daniel and I have always loved this song. I never thought it would become so intensely personal. The song gives me a lot of comfort. He was at one with a Golden angel glowing all around him when I saw him last. This morning the angel told me Jerry has his hearing back and is playing music in an Angel Band.
So sorry for your loss
It was great and inspiring to read many of the comments and how one song has touched somany lives. I say music is a universal language. I too have lost my mom and my sister.
This song has so much meaning. My sons name was Jordan, he passed 8 years ago shortly after turning 22. His only brother, Cody has struggled and now plays his guitar and sings, because of him♥️
I miss him so much my son Daniel who left us in 2013, rest in peace my beautiful boy who was only 5 love mummy xxx
It's so sad, your loss is terrible tragedy. Losing a child is the worst thing that can happen to parents. I hope you are doing well and wish everything best for you and your family.
@@babybabe7917 Thank you so much for your kind words x
❤️

You will see him again one day.
"Lord, I miss Daniel..." my precious, 16 year old, only son. I miss you so Daniel Drake 💔 05/31/2000 - 10/10/ 2016. Until we meet again Sweet not an hour goes bye that I don't think of you.

Do you still feel the pain of the scars that won't heal. That is when I lose my shit every time. Water works.
@@nadiamaria3003 you are sweet.
@@nadiamaria3003 Portuguese?
Yeah. Know what you mean. This song always reminded me of my older brother when he was alive. Now he is gone 15 years and this song just makes the tears flow.

I dedicate this song to my Brother Daniel who passed away on February 11, 2018. He was the heart and soul of our Family.

My Brother Daniel passed away 23 yrs ago. Today is his Birthday.
Still... "Oh God I miss Daniel, lord I miss him so much"
I am thankful for my time with him, and for this beautiful song that reminds me so much of him, and sums it all up in a couple lines.
He was older than me....
I miss Daniel so much...

Yeah really. I have fails in life that this song reminds me of. I hate it!

This song reminds me of my brother Daniel. We live a ocean apart. I'm so sorry for your loss. ❤💙💜
Song saddens me,and I dont even know a Daniel.Great song.
But you can plug in any name
I don't either but loved this song first time I heard it
This song made me cry before
My Grandmother passed away when this song came out...i was 4yrs old&this song came on the radio as we sent My Mum off 2Glasgow, Scotland 4Her Mum's funeral😥 i couldn't ask 4a better Memory than this song💜💜💜
My heart goes out to all those that lost a Daniel.
Thanks
But I’m not dead yet
I just lost another family member to suicide a few days ago. His name was Tommy
We just did 3rd November 2023. Has not laid him to rest yet. It's heart breaking. But I believe in a Resurrection.
Just came across this song. I love a man named Daniel but distance has been our problem. We met in Ireland by chance (he lives in Spain but was in Ireland for a funeral), then we crossed paths again in Los Angeles (turns out his father lives 30 mins from me). He left back to Spain and later I found a program that allowed me to teach English in Spain. I moved to Spain for him but we still haven’t managed to close the gap. He recently moved on. Doesn’t seem like I’ll have a job this year, so I’m sure I’ll have to pack my bags and go home. Coming across this song.. not sure if it’s the world giving me closure or the world telling me to let go until we meet again. I just know it’s him, I’ve always felt it.
I sing the chorus to this song to my son Daniel to this day because although he’s grown, he is my youngest and still my baby.
I just lost my brother Daniel. I miss him so much already. He's with God now. I hope to see him again someday. I love you brother.
Makes me think of my brother Daniel who drowned just age 5.He's my Angel 💙💔
😢💔
🥺
God bless your brother 😥
😞 😨
Although this song is about someone named Daniel, when I listen to it I remember my brother whom died a year ago his name was Armando.
It's actually a tribute song to Viet Nam Vets based on a friend that lost his eyesight in Viet Nam. The whole story is on another you tube video with Rosie O'Donnell, I think.
what is the title of this movie?
When this song was released in 1973 I was 7 years old, and I had a friend the same age named Daniel. This song always reminded me of him all those years ago. Unfortunetly he died 3 years ago at the age of 47 from complications brought on by diabetes. At one point he was my step-brother, and we have known each other for 42 years.
I had not seen him since 1989, or any of my step-brothers and sisters. I found one of his sisters on Facebook, and arranged to visit them last year after not seeing them for 25 years. As I visited them I found out through them that he had passed away, and also his other sister who died 10 years ago from the same complications.
I miss him very much, and wish he was still around so I can talk to him. Daniel you are missed very much by your Mom Rita, Joe, Gloria, and Richard. and myself. You will always and forever remember you in our hearts. You in God's hands now and maybe some day we will see you again my brother.
Rey
Dawn Maria Reyes yes
I feel teary hearing "Daniel" circa 1973 it was a hit in England. I was 18 and had my first trip to Spain,. Calella de la Costa for a whole week!
One of many great songs from Sir Elton John..
bro u old
Love this song. As a Vietnam vet I felt the same way about trying to outrun the nightmares of war. Can't be done so I just deal with it. Never talk about it to anyone, most don't care anyway.
I'm a vet. You can't talk to a civilian about what we've seen and done in war. They'd never understand!
❣
My older brother Daniel passed away a little over a year ago. He committed suicide. This song is AMAZING. Brings tears to my eyes when I hear it...and goosebumps. I love you Dan.
I'm so sorry 😢
He loves you too 💘
Imma 3 x suicide survivor and quadrapelegic vegetable without any motor skill functions left over from my hanging and coma. Love your life 🧬 and you will see your brother again 🙏❤️
Peace love and blessings to you and yours 🙏 Daniel
My dads name was Daniel. He died May 25th 2012. Miss him so so much. Named my son after him! My glorious toddler. This song is special. Just fir the name and nostalgic tune my dad liked. 🙏❤️
When this song was a hit, I was 13. My mare, me heart horse, suffered a difficult delivery and her beautiful foal Daniel never drew a breath. God bless everyone who has lost a Daniel.
Thanks for the lyrics! Can’t get enough of this song! Gets me through rough times.
R.I.P uncle Daniel, i miss you more than anything rightnow, why did you have to take your life. I love you so so much ❤ Brenlee. 1985-2016
I miss
Wow
Very sad😢😭😢
Brenlee Lewallen. I have always felt the grief in this song and I heard it from the day of its release. Suicide is hard to embrace and it is possible that your heart still aches. As it should. It is hard to imagine a greater tragedy
Namaste
I'm so sorry for ur uncle
one of the greatest songs ever written
That was my brother song - he passed in 1997 my twin. I miss him.
My name is Nina and I'm just here to say stay encouraged I see all the comments about the song and it does hit home and hit you right in the heart I asked that the Lord strengthens you where you are weak build you up where you been torn down look around so many family members being taken passed away they say here today gone tomorrow is here a second going a second in the twinkling of an eye eye the snap of a finger may God bless us and may the Lord keep us the song saddens me and makes me cry also like John Lennon song Imagine Michael Jackson song going to soon I pray your strength although I'm a stranger what I comment on some things and songs and I just asked the Lord to bless you and continue that's why we need to hold our children our family take if we don't see him everyday when we see him just hug him and tell him you love him you never know when we're going to leave here have a blessed evening
Strengh brother! You'll see him again..phisical death is not the end..its just the beggining..i ve had open heart surgery and i can tell you that
So sorry....god bless
so sad😥😥😥
P 000000p
Today is the anniversary of my brother Daniel s passing. I love and miss my little brother so very much. Xxx Ooo
Daniel, my friend, you passed away suddenly Sept. of '09. Everyone else called you Danny, but you were always Daniel to me. I think of you often and hope you are in a happier place.
This song is just soo beautiful! The lyrics, singing by Elton. It comes from the heart, and talks about the relationship between 2 brothers
My big brother Danny (Daniel) passed away on November 18...9 days before my eighth birthday. I miss him to this day and I’m 14. This song is so powerful for me and holds the most special place in my heart.
This was my best friends song. Miss u Sherm.
PTSD keeps me up most nights and for some reason this song makes me feel better..sorry for all the Daniels lost as I lost one also..Just a best friend but still?? Love the song after I found out the meaning..VIETNAM VETS THANKS FROM A BROTHER.
Nice
My name is Daniel, even though I'm not dead(obv), it made me cry to read all the comments of the death of the Daniels
Tough life out here for us Daniels
What a beautiful song. I never get tired listening to this song
Daniel is the name of a good friend I had in High school. He turned to a life of crime. Sadly I miss the friend I had before the fall.
Are u sure
GER : i knew one guy his name daniel he also turned to a life of crime....a big crime....
No matter what they did in their life that's still a soul whatever he turn to and he still shall see the Lord I'm just someone who be on UA-cam my name is Nina I'm just giving a spin-off of how everyone is commenting the song makes me cry and thinks of the loved ones that we are lost and it's happening all around us every day especially with our military men and women it's just like the song that John Lennon sings imagine you know imagine all the people I don't know too much about that song but I know that makes me cry just like Michael Jackson's song Gone Too Soon yes I pray your strength be encouraged God bless you
💔💔💔
Daniel teesdale?
I don't know a Daniel but, this one always makes the tears fall
My brother was Dennis, but he suffered and died at age 51, 14 years ago. This song always made me think of him even when he was alive.
I have an older sister named Kenisha who is 16 this year and she is doing a School Year Abroad program in Zaragoza, Spain and after we left the airport, this song was playing in the car now I play it every time I miss her
It really hits the heart doesn't it I'm just here to say stay in Courage my name is Nina I normally comment on songs may the Lord keep us in may the Lord bless us
Daniel my oldest brother just passed. Tears listening to this song. God i miss him so much.
Just lost one he was yonger than me older than the younger ones. Heart breaking. 3rd November 2023
