Those who know music, they will know to appreciate him. Some more, some less, some for the emotion, some for the phenomenon. Others though?? They do not matter.
I grew up listening to David Gray. He was my mums favourite artist . She took her own life when I was 15 and I chose this song to be played at her funeral. I couldn’t listen to it for at least 5 years after that. Since then I’ve been to see him live and have tickets to see him again this year. This song will forever hold the most meaning to me out of any song ever written ❤️ -update …. I went to the concert this week. It was amazing and filled with lots of emotion but also a lot of smiles and memories. Thank you all for your kind comments, they have been heartwarming ❤️
Music is such a powerful emotion - treasure the memory... my mother died in 2020 at the height of the first lockdown, I was unable to be with her, but I will always remember the music she wanted at her funeral...
I was at the concert with my boyfriend of 10 years. He died 4 years ago. I’ll always remember as we drove away from the Apollo we had this playing in the car full volume and everyone on the street walking back to the tube starting singing. Those were the days….
Wow, RU-vid has some crazy comments, these tragic stories. So sorry. My late mother loved his music as did I. All my family died before I was 40. I’m 41 now. Just browsing with some wine. The Queens death got me thinking of loved ones. The pain never eases but time lessens it slightly. All the best to you! ✌🏻🏴
My mate listened to white ladder and came running around to my house to drop the cd off. He said it was music that would change my life, im still loving it.
We have seen you in our home state of Minnesota 3 times. Our 4th time was at Red Rocks in Colorado a month ago David. All of your performances feed our souls, and Red Rocks was an especially magical setting to witness your gifts and be lifted to a higher place. Thank you for sharing the beauty of your music. Brian and Carol Smith.
Im recently divorced , going through a tough time in life. I seriously listen to this song while tears are running down my face. Anyway i just want to say for me this song hits me like a wall and so many feelings arise when i hear it.. :(
@@izaiahparry899 I went through a terrible divorce, my son was just 10 months old during that time. I am happy to say I am doing good. I'm happy, I stayed Strong and got through the hard times! My advice for anyone going through a divorce or hard time - Stay strong be brave you will overcome! Thanks for asking how I was/doing. Much appreciated man.

DAVID is a fantastic songwriter.He sings from his soul and it all comes shining out in that beautiful poignant voice...Listening to White Ladder me and my fiancee took our yacht around the Greek Islands.....great memories of David's musical genius.

Sail away with me honey I put my heart in your hands Sail away with me honey now, now, now Sail away with me What will be will be I want to hold you now, now, now Crazy skies all wild above me now Winter howling at my face And everything I held so dear Disappeared without a trace Oh all the times I've tasted love Never knew quite what I had Little darling if you hear me now Never needed you so bad Spinning 'round inside my head Sail away with me honey I put my heart in your hands Sail away with me honey now, now, now Sail away with me What will be will be I want to hold you now, now, now I've been talking drunken gibberish Falling in and out of bars Trying to get some explanation here For the way some people are How did it ever come so far? Sail away with me honey I put my heart in your hands Sail away with me honey now, now, now Sail away with me What will be will be I want to hold you now, now, now Sail away with me honey I put my heart in your hands Sail away with me honey now, now, now Sail away with me What will be will be I want to hold you now, now, now Sail away with me honey I put my heart in your hands It'd break me up if you pulled me down, whoa Sail away with me What will be will be I want to hold you now, now, now Source: LyricFind Songwriters: David (gb2) Gray
An absolute Masterpiece. I’m seeing him in 3 weeks in Melbourne playing the White Ladder album in it’s entirety plus the rest of his more popular songs from other albums. Can’t wait.
I wonder, do these singers know that the lyrics they wrote can mean so much to people and can connect so deeply to people in 'that' moment ?? The original spaceboy would like to thank you for conveying the way I felt about somebody back in the 1990's
Of all the times I’ve tasted love. When you’re older and miss EVEN those. The people that weren’t amazing but pretty close. Cuz now there’s nothing close at all? B/c you’re so done inside and it seems like the “before” was all a dream almost. To whatever it is you’re alive for here so alone? The before rawness like this one …this guy.. “This one” my grandma would say pointing to the TV or someone in room before else died - or to a picture. A good one. That one. Thanks David Gray
Thank You Davidd Gray for this beautiful meaningful track. JTime is 518am and you have given me the will once again to sing along to the track and I felt a calm within me all over again.. I wonder if you will help heal ny mind and body after a hellish 4 weeks in a place I detest and wrongly placed. Long love Music!❤
My mum loved David Gary. Reminds me or when I saw a kid. And now I understand why she felt the lyrics so much, it was perfect for the messy shit that was going on in our family
He told us at a live performance in Newcastle about 13 yrs ago his grandad was a fellow geordie, I think he said from Shields. Beautiful artist. Beautiful soul ❤️
Thank U Dave... So Happy U Posted This Song / Very Kind to Humanity - Sir... We Like this Lovely Song Mrs. Angie Jordan & Hubby + Family... Thank U / Fine Care to All DD.
I just lost my ex gf of 14 years this week. David Gray was her favorite. His music so sad yet so beautiful, and so very true. I'll miss you my Baba. I wish we could of sailed away...
Chris your welcome. Remember that sorrow is a journey, not a destination. We don't get " over" anything but rather learn to move on. Life is never really the same. Take time to feel this BUT find joy along the way. Many blessings!!
Hang in there Brother! You will make it through this difficult time. I've been there many times. You never stop loving someone you just learn to live without them.❤
