I’m nervous in a completely new way. I want you to feel the song. To feel her through it. I want to take you to that moment on the terrace when she first heard it. To describe to you how it feels to be thrown between hope and despair. I want to place you on my shoulder and have you experience the moment when she calls me on Skype while I’m in the studio. At first, it’s small talk. But by now she is unable to smile, and she says, “I promised to tell you when the day was not far away. I think it's time for you to come home now." I want to convey to you how exasperating undramatic death can be. There is no symphony orchestra or light at the end of the tunnel. It is just a tired, speechless family gathered around the kitchen table playing Yatzy. / Maria Jane Smith
Är nervös på ett helt annat sätt. Vill att ni ska känna låten. Känna henne via den. Vill ta med er till den där stunden på altanen när hon fick höra den. Beskriva hur det känns att kastas mellan hopp och förtvivlan. Vill att ni ska sitta bakom min axel och ta in stunden när hon ringer mig på Skype i studion och först pratar lite allmänt men hur leendet inte orkar längre och hon säger ’Jag lovade att berätta för dig när det inte är så långt kvar, jag tror att det dags att komma hem nu’. Vill förmedla hur provocerande odramatisk döden kan vara. Det är ingen symfoniorkester och ljus i tunneln. Det är en trött familj som inte har några ord kvar som kan trösta längre. Som sitter runt sitt vanliga köksbord och spelar Yatzy. /Maria Jane Smith

► Lyrics
In a couple of weeks
Your hair will fall to the ground
All that silver’n blonde
You saved for so long
And In a couple of months
We’re gonna walk through the doors
Inside the hospital walls
Your verdict will fall
But for now we just keep praying
To a god we try to belive in
And there’s a lot of people saying
That it’s all bout positive thinking
So I make you drink your vitamins
And we try to keep you laughing
Meditation helps
And have you ever felt
Two hands that practice healing?
Ah ah..
Then we cried ah ah ah..
Wanna ease your pain
But what can I say
Wanna play a game?
And we played yatzy
All night long
And Just like with your life
We counted the odds
And the kids where laughing
When we let them win
Please have mercy
Cause they dont know a thing
And we played yatzy
All night long
And just like with your life
We counted the odds
But one thing is certain
It aint your time to go
We just need a full house
And five sixes in a row
And i asked you to tell
Is there something you miss?
Tell me what do you wish
Do you have a bucket list?
You said
You already swam with dolphins
And there’s not anywhere you wanna climb
It aint like missing out on wild things
Is what keeps you up at night
You said all that you want
Are the simpelest things
Just for your body to bare
And to stay with your kids
But for now we just keep praying
To a God we try to belive in
And there’s a lot of people saying
That it’s all bout positive thinking
So i make you drink your vitamins
And we try to keep you laughing
Meditation helps
And have you ever felt
Two hands that practice healing?
Ah ah..
Then we cried ah ah ah..
Wanna ease your pain
But what can I say
Wanna play a game?
And we played yatzy
All night long
And just like with your life
We counted the odds
And the kids where laughing
When we let them win
Please have mercy
Cause they dont know a thing
And we played yatzy
All night long
And I’ve never wished more
Not to write a song
But one thing is certain
It aint your time to go
We just need a full house
And five sixes in a row

Years ago my wife and I played Monopoly Deal in a cancer ward with a beloved friend and her husband. We had so much fun. Sadly she lost the fight at 26. This song unexpectedly came on and reminded me of that time and our loss. Beautiful song. Thanks for sharing it.
I’ve lost count how many times I’ve listed to yatzy , but it makes me cry more and more each time . I feel your pain in your vocals Maria and I can’t begin to imagine how you felt and are still feeling losing your sister . You did her proud as her sister and this song is just the most perfect tribute to her xx

This is music at it's best and purest. This is the reason for music. God bless and thank you for all the brilliant songs.
Please have mercy-they don’t know a thing…
😥
💛 thank you for this song and most heartfelt expressions. May the God of all comfort and love.. be with you…
-2 Corinthians 1:3-7
“…I’ve never wished more not to write a song.”
Amen
It's exactly like that. I still remember having a family hug in the livingroom and watching how the clock just goes on. It just goes on it doesn't stop for noone. We didn't eat for two days. We couldn't. The funeral came way too early. About 300 people attended. It gave me a little happiness seeing that she was loved by so many people.
I'm so sorry for your loss Maria, through this song I understand what a beautiful soul she was and I'm sure she would be so proud of you♥️
Thank you
I'm so sorry for your loss Maria... Hope you and your family are staying strong during this difficult time. I'm sending you all lots of love from Poland
Thank you
I am so sorry for your loss Maria, I am sure it still hurts a great deal, here for my dad who I miss every day and it never gets easier. Thank you for such a beautiful song.
This is heavy. Cant imagine writing this after a sibling has passed.. You guys did a great job, she would be proud.
i’ve never lost anyone to cancer but I tear up every time i listen to this song because I feel so sad for all the victims of this terrible disease. May God bless them and all the families and friends that have. Thanks again for such a beautiful heartfelt song
Guys, I cry with this, I live this situation with my aunt for all the past year, till she left on December, but, I will remember her with the world's love, this song is so beautiful. :')
Thank you. We're sorry for your loss too.
Cancer sucks, and I'm sorry for your loss. Most of the time I think life is too short, but sometimes it reminds me to appreciate the little time we do get to spend together a little more. Even if it's just sitting around the table playing board games. A beautiful song for a beautiful life gone too quickly.
Thank you.
Somehow it's relieving to hear that others are going through that kind of pain too. I lost my sister in december. She was only 25 years old.
I just want to thank you for this beautiful song! 💔 My friend found this video about a week ago and shared it with me because she knew we were going through pretty much the same thing with my stepmother. And now, a week later when the day for the final goodbyes is coming closer all the time, I find this song playing in my head over and over again and it voices my feelings just so well. Even if the pain itself cannot really be eased just now, I can use this song for support and play it to my friends and other relatives when I want to explain my feelings but don't have the energy and words for doing it myself. Just THANK YOU ❤
What a beautiful song the tears come every time
i’ve listened to this song hundreds of times and it still makes me tear up for you and your loss. may you be blessed in every way
no, im not crying, it's just a tears... you're the best!
How fortunate to have shared her soul while you could... a beautiful tribute.
Thank you.
Przepiękna piosenka 😍 Uwielbiam Was słuchać!
The Smith siblings are such strong people. Sending love to them. ❤
I’m so sorry for your loss, my friend knew who Jenna was. And what a beautiful song remember that she is always going to be in your heart♥️🥰🥺I think she is rlly proud of you!❤️❤️❤️

Jesteście wspaniali. Miło was słuchać. IT is wonderful
Otroligt fin och förbannat sorglig låt som berör varje gång jag hör den. Biter t om igenom min hud och stenhjärta..
This is beyond extremly beautiful and so so touching. Im very sorry for your loss and wish you all the best❤
I'm so sorry for you loss! So sad but beautiful and touching song. I can feel your heart when I listen this song.❤
Så vacker och tänkvärd text. Om att vilja stanna i den vardag man känner sig trygg i . Tillsammans med sina barn ♥️När livet sätts på spel är det de små vanliga sakerna man vill stanna i .Något för oss andra att lägga på minnet och vara tacksamma över att kunna . Din syster har en underbart begåvad syster och ni kommer ses igen en dag . Kramar o kärlek till dig Maria ♥️
Oh wow 😭 only discovered you yesterday and this song. Oh so sad and so sorry for your loss
we had this song at my mom's funeral, she had been battling cancer for 12 years but unfortunately the cancer won ❤️❤️
Beautifully written and such a masterpiece.
I'm sorry for your loss and I think you are doing a marvelous job giving it a place in your life and turn the loss of your sis into something useful and beautiful for other people. Lots of strength and luck, you're doing very well (thumb-up picture)
Beautiful song😍
thanks so much for this song. i tried to donate but i can’t do it with Paypal and i prefer not to give my entire social security number. if there’s another way i’ll be happy to donate. God Bless you for singing at this event and God Bless every cancer victim in the world. AML from Texas
This was so very beautiful, and heart-wrenching. I'm sorry for your loss, may your sister rest in peace. Condolences to you, and all her family & loved ones.
Fuck cancer. I lost my grandpa in January. I miss him so much 😭😭😭
Maria, I am so sorry for your loss. 💔 I am proud of you for staying strong and performing this beautiful song that must have been so hard to do so. When I saw you perform at the Mercury Lounge in NYC last year, I saw the pain you were in from this, but you danced it away and I was holding back tears of my own for you. I'm with you and everyone else as we all say: "F*ck cancer!" ❤️
Thank you for your kind words and support. Happy you came to see us at Mercury Lounge. It was a special night. Maybe we'll meet again
Smith & Thell It was a night I'll never forget. Got that bag you signed hanging on my wall. A treasure I shall forever cherish. ❤️ And you are most welcome, I'm happy to give you my love and full support. I pray we meet again one day. 😊 What a pleasure it was the 1st time!
What a beautiful voice you have...
Listen to for a while now and love your voice and songs.. ❤️❤️
Beautiful and sad. I wish I could take some of your pain away. So sorry for your loss.
Masterpiece ❤️
Jeg bliver stadig vældig rørt af denne smukke sang
DENNA låten är en av de finaste jag hört texten som är sorglig, men så sann. Den får mig att läka från mina nära som jag förlorat.
спасибо, danke, thank you, bravo !
so so beautiful 🥰
Просто божественно ! 😇😇😇😇😇
So beautiful I love this song and I'm sorry for your lost❤
Var gång jag hör den här så gråter jag. Inte den stilla gråten med en tår eller två som smiter. Utan fulgråt. Så ansiktet skrynklar sig och det gör ont i bihålorna. Jag kände henne inte. Fast jag känner med dig. Omtankar!
A few months ago my grandma died, (a part of me died with her) so I know the feel, it's so heavy... I know that maybe I'll never meet you, and maybe you won't read this but you're not alone. Love ya
Den här låten går som en kniv rakt in, en vers och jag gråter. Jag vet inte riktigt var jag ska göra av den här smärtan. Jag minns alla mina som inte finns kvar och det gör så ont. Jag tar den här texten som en hyllning till alla som inte är med mig längre, eller kanske alla de som faktiskt är kvar. För många finns här än trots dåliga odds. Men vi ska bli fler, det är ett löfte! Kramar!
R.I.P En fantastisk gammal engelska lärare.
Sorry for your loss Maria, she was a great human being.

Great! Emotional! 😊😊
In a couple of weeks
Your hair will fall to the ground
All that silver and blonde

We're gonna walk through the doors
Inside the hospital walls

To a God we try to believe in
And there's a lot of people saying
That it's all 'bout positive thinking
So, I make you drink your vitamins
And we try to keep you laughing
Meditation helps
And have you ever felt
Two hands that practice healing?
Ah ah ah, ah ah ah
Then we cried, ah ah ah
Wanna ease your pain
But what can I say?
Wanna play a game?
And we played Yatzy
All night long
And just like with your life
Wе counted the odds
And the kids whеre laughing
When we let them win
And please have mercy
'Cause they don't know a thing
And we played Yatzy
All night long
And just like with your life
We counted the odds
But one thing is certain
It ain't your time to go
We just need a full house
And five sixes in a row
And I asked you to tell
Is there something you miss?
Tell me what do you wish?
Do you have a bucket list?
You said
You already swam with dolphins
And there's not anywhere you wanna climb
It ain't like missing out on wild things
Is what keeps you up at night
You said all that you want
Are the simplest things
Just for your body to bear
And to stay with your kids
So for now, we just keep praying
To a God we try to believe in

Ah ah ah, ah ah ah
Then we cried, ah ah ah
Wanna ease your pain
But what can I say?
Wanna play a game?
And we played Yatzy
All night long
And just like with your life
We counted the odds
And the kids where laughing
When we let them win
And please have mercy
'Cause they don't know a thing
And we played Yatzy
All night long
And I've never wished more
Not to write a song
But one thing is certain
This ain't your time to go

Wow...
Han är så snygg Thell så man kan äta upp han
Jag vet inte vad jag ska skriva här. Jag vill skrika högt för det är så smärtsamt vackert. Jag vill krama dig för jag vet hur det känns. Ändå vet jag ju inte det alls. Jag vill skriva nån slags hyllning antar jag för den låten...her-re-gud! Jag känner den. Som jag känner den. Det går inte att lyssna på den utan att storgråta. För att det är så vackert och så sorgligt på en och samma gång. Jag har varit där, i dödens väntrum, inte cancer men annat. Det man drömmer om är inte Kilimanjaro, man drömmer om att få kramas, gå barfota i sanden, doften av nyklippt gräs och att städa. Man vill bara kunna städa igen. Jag kan inte skriva sånt här. Men ändå, Tack! So sorry for your loss!
👍👍👍👍👍👍
