Its xmas day I'm drunk and my 2 deerhound dogs are snoring to this music I'm in heaven
Driving home with our two sleeping children in the back of the car, street lights on, steel night sky and this playing softly. Children now grown up with children of their own. Wow, right back in the heart of that sweet memory.
Blimey.
Yes ,ooh those memories, keep in your heart
Beautiful
Wow, that hits a chord. Big memories
too right,beautiful music
Babylon is a great tune but it’s all about Please forgive me, for me. Liked the song and then was on trip to New York in 2003 and it came on in bar and it just felt so familiar and warm whilst I felt so far away from my girlfriend, now wife, in England. Hearing it in 2023 has me a bit of a mess on a slightly drunk Friday night
Who still listen to this in 2021 ? Masterpiece, really.
Have never stopped listening.
Will always be a masterpiece by a talented master of songwriting 👍

@@suespencer1696 me as well love t
Me...and Ed Sheeran apparently. Quotes David Gray as his biggest influence.
Remembering my true love gave this CD to me. I never realized what the words were until I really listened to them.
I missed out on my true love. Please forgive me and my stupidity.
Love these songs but it really hurts me now.
Gifted man lyricist and musician. Soul lifting Yeshua is in your presence.
This was the sound track that saw me through a painful messy expensive divorce. Somehow i got through it battered tired and angry with a life that shat on me.but i came through more wiser.....its funny that the saddest songs gives you a musical hug and lifts your head and hart and soul.......thanks David Gray.if i see you down my local ill buy you a beer.........................and that voice original soulful and expressive , you were blessed by god..................sincere heartfelt love from me.......................Doug
I can't believe I have not heard this song for the first time until about a month ago. It's such a beautiful song. I'm 66 and wished I would have heard this years ago. But, I get to listen to it now with a new appreciation to music.
Perfect! Forgive me IS and always will be magical. David Gray, thank you!
I'm 72 now and about 22 yrs ago in S.F. I had one of only 3 deeply romantic gestures in my life, this one from an Argentinian young man singing and playing this song Babylon for me suddenly outside where I lived. I didn't even know he knew how to play guitar. It was exquisitly wonderful. Never to forget Luciano. Thankyou.
I fell in love with David Gray all on my very own. Very EARLY thirties. It happened to come on the radio. I was hooked. I played it for the man i married & has my twins. We were bith immediate David Gray lifetime fans. Oh how id love to ti see him anytime, then or now. I slways know when its him. Hes wonderful. ✨💗✨🎶✨
I’ve renewed my love for these two songs. I used to play it in the car. In Please Forgive Me there is a line ‘I’ve got half a mind to scream out loud’. My little daughter would scream! She’s 24 now and still remembers these songs. Music so powerful and everlasting. Where are you now David?
It's on Bridget Jones, Brennan Jules and Mark Don Cassie. That's why I got the flu shot in the pub. I guess Neil was trying to block it with Jules. I don't hold grudges after being locked in a hospital room with Cassie Mark Don. Thankfully the panic attacks have stopped now.
Look on his UA-cam channel ❤
2024 in my hot tub. He gets me! So passionate.
It’s 2023. I’m 50 in NJ. Man, this move me. Thank you.
This is what talent is. He sounds just as good as the recordings if not better live. He appears to sing effortlessly and his raspy voice is incredible. What an incredible gift to us all. It's a shame he doesn't get more recognition.
Check out Ben Ottowell of Gomez Fame.
Massively underrated
David Gray Love Abides.

sweet sweet song and your comments are spot on...
David gray reminds us of easier, happier time when the world wasn’t in turmoil and everyone seemed happy. Pre social media
The voice that launched a 1000 ships and lyrics are impecable.
It’s been 24 years and still I will forever love you Tammi Day!! ❤2024♥️
A great song to hear when rolling through Chicago at 2am in a semi.
Saw him live years ago. He blew my mind with his talent. I was expecting mediocre and got brilliance. If you ever get the chance to see him live grab it with both hands
Oh yes this song top notch...end of..tears in my eyes
I only heard of David in 2021, going to see he live in 2022 can't wait
Going to see him on the 31st May👍🏼
Ireland adopted this album. What an artist❤😊
I liked this guy when I was a teen but didn’t realise how good he actually was till I got older wow can’t believe how good he is live 👏🏽
Spot on x
Same here man, guy’s incredible
@Bago Meat Jamie doesn’t always mean James, in this case it doesn’t. I’m not the one on UA-cam looking for gay men, looks like you’re finding it hard to come to terms with your sexuality buddy.
Ditto... Always love his 1.2.3.4
God-Jesus/Christ~ Never forgot you and loves you and very greatful to you . Thankyou so much . Under dyrest is what won this war at the very beginning .
I can’t believe it’s been 20 years! Still so fresh and amazing! Love you David Gray! ❤️
Brilliant singing. Of all the love stories in my years this song Is my love story come tru at 62.
Me too ❤️
THIS!
This is an all time classic. David deserves far more credit than he gets for his beautiful music and lyrrics. This song will love with me forever as it will for millions for whom it was so meaningful at the time it was released. All these years later it still moves me.
This is Album is so Special to me, no words to explain, absolutely heartfelt filled with tears… Beautiful ❤️ in my heart, I can listen to this, him over and over…. He hits Home…
I agree that the album is totally outstanding. It seems like it was so good that he hasn't been able to repeat with another great album. For us/me it's awesome to have these to listen to; I can not hear them too much. So many songs that you hear and like but get tired of - not the songs from "Draw the LIne"/David Gray. So much emotion in the performances and meaningful lyrics; just great!
I felt just like that. Thanks for explaining Stephanie
🥰
One of the greatest artists ever!!!
As much as I love DAVID GREY....no....DG is never one of our great artist ever!.....PLEASE FORGIVE ME XX
Yep I agree he's up there with the greats, each to his own thou
That must mean Ben Howard is god!
The guitar arpeggio outro in Please forgive me gives me goosebumps every time
How is it possible that it only gets better each time I listen? The man is a musical genius. This album will always hold a special place in my heart. ❤️
Just come across this version and couldn't agree more. It's like the bass player is just plucking at my heart strings. Blissful.....
It's such an incrediblely beautiful song in every way imo❤ooohh Babylon.
David gray absolutely ❤️💋🥰💗💘😎🔥😻
To me this is how these songs were created & should always be performed. Singer songwriters are rare, great ones like David are in short supply & amazingly talented.
love the bass player and lead. both awesome and David of course ❤️
Cried seeing him performing this song in Birmingham he lifted the roof.
Incredible album when it came out. Cant believe its been almost 25 years. Where does it go...
I've lost years.
Work takes up a large portion
🙉
That's how I felt about the 25 years of Buffy this year 😢
@@krzykris YOU'VE lost years. I've been in an absolute shit-hole of a "home" for the brain-dead and debilitated for over three years now, with virtually zero chance of EVER getting out of here, Damitol.... :-|
This wonderful musician is actually too good to be popular in the mainstream. He is truly an incredibly rare talent. Thankyou David.
Remembering those special times in my life x
I love David Gray. One of the most underrated Male artists xxxx
I remember him from years ago but he has kind of slipped off my radar. What is he doing now ?
Roofing @@sammyd8860
I can't get enough....
Reminds me of one of the happiest times in my life. Thank you for being the soundtrack David.
Exactly the same for me 😊❤
100% same here 🤙🏻
Yep. Simpler times
Same with me…
Nostalgia
Feels like lightening running through my veins, everytime I look at you
I remember my mother playing White Ladders in the car all the time growing up, this album has stuck with me throughout the years. Now, I play it with my baby in the back seat. I’m taking him to his concert next July. My life truly wouldn’t be what it is, without this soundtrack. It’s time for me to carry on that legacy
Children need to hear good music to keep them grounded when life makes no sense. Good for you and good for your mom.
This man could sing the phone book to me and I would love it
Great contestant his music was still refreshing all those years back and is still so worth the time now !
David Gray pull at your soul and rips your heart , he heightens every emotion known to man and any yet undiscovered . He is a true romantic poet who knows human nature right down to it very core .
May I humbly suggest

Feels like lightning running through my veins every time I look at you !
Just as I read your comment he sang those words🎼✌
What a voice, our David has❤feels like lightning running through my veins.😅
Started listening to him again after a good few years and now that im 10-15 years older you realise how fuckin good this guy is and what a tune can't stop listening to it☺ woooo oooh iiiii
Richie O Sullivan You are right. It’s crazy. He was our age and now it’s 2020.
I was about 30 when he cracked the music industry and just getting out of all the Oasis shit. Best time of my life as a song writer and guitarist. A real eye opener.
Dumbass if you didnt realize how good he was from the start ! , seriously !
scott mcadam dumbass 😂wat age yeh 10
Well said!
what a treasure. love is easy when found from within with true intent.
I still remember the first time I heard Babylon: on the bus in the seventh grade on the way to school. Its been a favorite ever since.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️luv this song just magic
Wow lovely chilli out music great voice great guitar great guys 👏👏👏👏😍👍🎸🍀☘️🇮🇪
I was lucky enough to see David years before the pandemic in San Diego at the SDSU amphitheater. Didn't realize that would be my last live concert at the time, who knew😲 Babylon is the big hit but "Please Forgive Me" is a great song, even better live when they jam out from the middle to the end. David was really feelin it that night and he started going crazy with the head bob. I thought he must need a chiropractor with him on tour to do that every night 😁
Back in the day my prime what I'd give to have these days back a complete legend with so much memory David gray ❤
First act l seen at t in the park absolute legend ❤❤❤
Listened to this album when it came out in a Dublin pub on our honeymoon. It still sounds amazing!
I am so happý lising to your song tanks David from Island💜🙏💙💖
Love you brother to moon and back xxxx can uwe have more pls, you are too good ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Please forgive me really is a masterpiece
White ladder is a masterpiece
I ride a motorcycle a long way in Australia
Imagine how good it is When David Sings Randomly in my Helmet
Thanks Ian
I just love his gravelly voice and his lyrics that cut right to my heart. I will never be able to hear this song without thinking of someone who meant so much to me but who got away. This song brings tears to my eyes. Every. Single. Time. ❤️❤️
Me too totally get it ! Got to see him live absolutely awesome 😍
Same
I hear you
This song is breath taking, the bass gives me chills
Really is he for real ? Or an angel just sent from heaven . Who can be that sweet and lovely. He’s s true to his heart u don’t often see that in men it’s beautiful simply beautiful
I went to see him in Leeds so long ago. Amazing 👏
Music and singers these days are fake and artificial. This here is real emotional and intelligent soul touching.
white ladder....soundtrack to my youth...... timeless
I don’t know how people can stay seated at gigs! Defeats the purpose of being there for me.
Got me through some hard times these two songs ❤
"Babylon" always reminds me of my best friend, Lorraine☮
I am forever grateful for you Matt 🙏💕 You are my Love Story ❤️
Didn’t get this music at the time. Listening to it again in 2021, realise how special it is. Just brilliant.
How very Divine 👑😇🙏🎅🎄🎆⭐
White ladder remains the best album I ever bought, up against Bowie, Fleetwood Mac and Weller, proves what a good record it is IMHO
Agreed🇬🇧
May I humbly make a suggestion??ua-cam.com/video/zHtulo552uQ/v-deo.html
So many memories this man is the ultimate musician love and respect you legend to💗💗💗✌✌👍
Finally got to see David Gray last week in Glasgow 2 yrs after he was meant to play..Best concert I've been to in a long time.. the chat from him was great as well
So proud of david for bearing his soul and sharing it with our nation.
a soundtrack to our narrative.
memories
I saw him 15 times devoted 20 years later magic moments ✨️
I saw him with my mum and dad in Leeds up at the university.
He was soooooo good I will never forget it. My dad passed away 11 years ago.
He loved David 😍
I want someone to feel the way towards me that he feels about the girl he's singing about ❤️
@Bago Meat you chill out! Lol
That nose rub was seamless!
I first seen David on Jools Holland singing Birds without wings and was hooked. A fantastic artist who sings songs that means so much to me and sure many,many more. Thank you Mr Gray. It’s a pleasure listing to your songs
These songs are amazing even after all these years takes me back to wen I first heard them happy times and such an amazing artist with such a fantastic voice don’t think he got the recognition he truly deserves for such great tunes
David is outstanding, how he creates and delivers his brilliant and enthusiastic and sonorous and soulful songs: Brilliant
Went to see him on the 30th May 22 Liverpool (finally after 2year wait because of lockdown) Fantastic night. Babylon my favourite one, he had the arena rocking with this. Definately see him again.
I think he needs to make a comeback on the scene ❤️
I remember listening to this song on the way back up to Scotland having worked in London for 8 weeks in 2003 😍👍
Loved David in the 90's.....still love him now.
very big in Ireland loved and love him
Sometimes you hear an artist, whose words and music just touch your soul. David Gray is one of those musicians. Hope to see him in concert in Nashville in 2021 (show was cancelled in 2020).
Hi Mark. I"ve had his music on repeat for a few days now. Love his music and completely agree with your comment. It touches deep. Can you tell me when he'll be in Nashville?? Would love to see him...
I find myself listen to more and more of his and Ryan Adams music the older I get . One of the greats’
That's was unbelievable ,that song .
"Won't ever have to say goodbye" ❤️❤️ ❤️
I guess an Artist hopes for Longevity. I think he is the personification of that ..... amazing music
Truly outstanding. I can feel the romantic soul in all his songs. David Gray is a timeless individual.
Always a welcomed sound is listening to him. He is amazing.
No substitute for quality....amazing
The song that helped me get out of a toxic relationship! Maybe the opposite of what was intended. But it worked for me!
Possibly the best live performance performed by any artist in the entire history of music
VERY prophetical Daz - to say the least. BTW, I think David is f***ing mint!
He manages to stick out from even the very best of artists. He has something unique. His voice is at a level not even a richter-scale can calculate, his attitude is at a level that re-defines the term "cool", and, basically, he is 2 steps beyond anyone else.
darren1naudi - 'Deep' marra to say the least!
+darren1naudi Calm down,' twas a good performance.
A huge, not "an huge"....but I agree with you.
Matt…………………❤️🎶🧘♀️🦋✌🏾🏄♀️ Thank you for loving me when I’m not likable, when I’m dark, when I’m silent, when I’m self absorbed……..I’m so deeply apologetic for making decisions that are not mine to make………Your apprentice in retirement in La Paz Mexico is gorgeous on you babe. Love and Light Matt 🧘♀️ You are woven within my dreams babe. Please be kind to yourself 🦋 Love, respect, appreciation, and forever your gorgeous soul swims in my breaths each and every moment in my life forever. You I Love Matthew J Holden. You I Love 💕
Never heard of this guy just accidentally come across video on youtube. He is magnificent, beautiful song.
White ladder is a brilliant album, it’s on Spotify 😉
You helped save my life ❤️ I remember when you told us when ur granda came from the North. Was Shields I think. I've had such a bad life. I love listening to you tho. It makes me feel like I'm corrupting the life I knew. Keep it up son✌🏼
this music bring back memories ❤🐕
