This is one of the greatest films I've ever seen. I don't care a dam bit what you identify as in life, just enjoy your life cause we all know how short it can be. R.I.P Brandon, Phillip and Lisa.
Yes! Yes! Yes! I was in Houston, and so struggling with my coming out process when this song was on the charts. Her name was Tara, and she indeed had the bluest eyes in Texas. 🏳️🌈
love this song and the movie, one of my favorites, I'm bisexual, I'll never forget the story, I was 6 years old when Brandon Teena was murdered, it made national news, even being so young and not knowing who he was or why he was killed and not knowing anything about death in general, it still felt like losing a friend, even back then, btw, yes I know Brandon was biologically a woman but he was also transgender and identified as male, so I call him Brandon as he would've liked to have been called in life :')
+Joe Velazquez She made a film about the murder of a trans man almost 20 years ago now, that movie was a big deal, it tackled a subject no major studio would go near. It wasn't a big money earner. I remember Chloe Sevigny saying she did her own make up and brought her own lunch to set.
+Max Hall I respect Chloe. She's one to take risks and seems to be a very organic sort of actress. She created such a real character for this film and others. I know they took a great deal of artistic license with this film, but I think it did succeed in bringing focus to the very real life of a transgender man.
Brandon, my heart hurts I wish you can see how much the world has changed! You didn't deserve what happened to you your known in my world you helped many people well hope your in heaven dancing and happy thank you for staying true to yourself and for fighting till the end rip Brandon p.s I always flip a cigarette for you ♥️
Watched this for the second time in my life. I watched it as a 13 year old and remember how much it wrecked me and stayed with me. I watched it last night as a 31 year old and remembered how much it stayed with me and how heartbreaking Brandon's story is. I hope wherever he is now, he's loved for who he is. Happy Pride Month all 🌈
I watched it when I was 12 years it also wrecked me and made me feel sad and I rewatched it when I 25 years it's still wrecks me let me feel sad until now I am 30 years old now
Ha!! She absolutely Killed this song. This song was Never a rock song, it Is a Country song. Restless Heart made it a hit. Restless Heart sings this Better than Anyone. They are The Best
@@DakotaBeerDrinker74 Restless Heart is 1,000 times better than this. This not a rock song, it’s country song. The only ones who can sing this is Restless Heart
RIP Brandon.....you are gone, and I wish you knew the impact of your journey and legacy have on others...your strength to be you inspires us to this day. You are much bigger than a boy from Nebraska who loved a girl...
Nina é uma excelente cantora.Esta versão ficou maravilhosa,aliás como tudo em que ela empresta a voz maravilhosa e com um timbre fantástico. A música é genial,o filme também
Back in 2005 I used to cry to this song everytime I remembered Teena being murdered in front of Lana's very eyes and her laid down beside Teena Brandon's dead body😢 and in the next morning she'd find her/him letter in the jacket's pocket.
I've been rewatching Big Love recently and I can't but keep seeing Nikki as Lana. Chloe is such an amazingly talented actress. I absolutely love Nina's version of this song. This movie was brilliant from casting to cinemetography to soundtrack.
2022 12/12 De Dezembro, Hoje Brandon Teena Faria seus 51 anos Se Não Fosse A Corvadia De seus assassinos... Eu Espero De Verdade Que Onde Quer Que Você Esteja Que Você Esteja Sendo feliz E Amado Do Jeito Que Você Merece. Um Feliz Aniversário E Descanse Em Paz.💙
Amazing movie and an mind blowing song!!!!!!!.....The comments that im reading on here are awesome!!...I guess there is still hope for this screwed up world we ALL have to live in.
I saw that movie, and really liked the song. Well it was not made for that movie originally, but it really fits and the singer´s voice is somehow beautiful and sad. So good.
I'm not usually a fan of covers but this version is much better than the one what's restless heart. Just as in my opinion I think Joan Jett's version of have you ever seen the rain was better than CCR I know that's on the borderline of blasphemy LOL
I can see that highway, when it's all over, and Lana drives away from her town, heading to something new Despite all that tragedy, those fastmoving highway lights sure gave a feeling of hope.
aaaah, you're talking about the real events. I was talking about movie. Yeah, I know, it's damn unfair she roams free. Nothing will make it okay for Brandon anymore. at least thanks to that movie I looked it up and learned about his existence.
Wow...Ikr. If he lived today it would be a little easier for him. It's so frustrating that simply being born earlier or later can determine your life. How did you stamble across his story?
Still makes me sick to my stomach that HIS gravestone reads "Teena Brandon". For real? You won't even give your child the satisfaction that they so desperately wanted while LIVING... Jesus Christ, there has to be something we can do to change BRANDON'S gravestone to HIS NAME.
If this is what his family can live with , let it go already, He is their child not yours. I'm 64 gay socialist Democrat. But not every part of every public story belongs to us. Some things are not about us as a community . A child's death is one of them. Brandon, Matt, Barry etc are human beings first.
@@johnvetter6222 I don't give a single FUCK. Brandon was a transman, and went by the pronouns he/him. His family is a disgusting worthless pile of trash
💜This film is very well done. It was a Wonderful film and based on true events. Regardless sexual orientation, race, whatever you choose to be or really feel you are deep within your soul, as long as honesty is key, just do you!💜Remember, life may seem forever when in moments of bliss; truthfully, you never know when your number comes up💜⌛💜
Esta canción junto con la película,definitivamente me conmovieron , es tan triste la historia de Brandon Teena, hace poco supe que la película era de un caso de la vida real, y me emociono aun mas ,se me hará difícil no relacionar siempre la canción , la película y la protagonista de esta historia . simplemente fascinante ,triste pero con muchas lecciones.
Jaime Ja. la historia mas triste :( no lo dejaron ser el mismo son unos desgraciados! esta es la historia de un luchador que espero que siempre sea recordado!
The lonesome Texas sun was setting low And in the rear view mirror I watched it go I can still see the wind in her golden hair I close my eyes for a moment, I'm still here The bluest eyes in Texas Are haunting me tonight Like the stars that fill The midnight sky Her memory fills my mind (Where did I go wrong) Did I wait too long Or can I make it right The bluest eyes in Texas Are haunting me tonight Another town, another hotel room Another dream that ended way too soon Left me lonely way before the dawn Searching for the strength to carry on The bluest eyes in Texas Are haunting me tonight Like the stars that fill The midnight sky Her memory fills my mind (Where did I go wrong) Did I wait too long Or can I make it right The bluest eyes in Texas Are haunting me tonight For every heart you break You pay a price But I can't forget the tears In her blue eyes The bluest eyes in Texas Are haunting me tonight Like the stars that fill The midnight sky Her memory fills my mind (Where did I go wrong) Did I wait too long How can I make it right The bluest eyes in Texas Are haunting me tonight The bluest eyes in Texas Are haunting me tonight
The only one who can sing this beautifully is Restless Heart. This version took a beautiful country song and turned it into a horrifying alternative rock song and killed it during the process.
And her acting is one of the most riveting of movie history at only 24 at that time. No ONE deserved the Oscar that year more than her in the Best Actress category.
Well, I saw the movie, but I have this on a playlist from another perspective: "The Big Build". You can find that, no trouble, cos I'm pretty public as far as music goes.
J Joe Michael the boy wonder every time I hear 👂this song 🎵 it takes me back to the first time I saw this movie. Boys don't cry it was so sad end every one gave a great job r I p Brandon teena Phillip and. Lisa r. I p my you all sleep well the angel s j
Dang what is it with rock singers taking a beautiful country song and turn it into a song no one would want to listen to. Leave it alone. You will Never win this. This was written by three people. Some wrote country songs, some wrote and sang country songs. Restless Heart were the first ones to record this. No one will be able to sing like Restless Heart. So give up while you are behind.
Never got what was the movie about. But the sceneary was lovley and pr0bebLey the muzik ;, *) So did my date , we never did conect , 20 some years went by since that date , it was in sydney with the olympics @2000
