I lost my wife last year after 43 years together. How did these young people capture the feelings of love and loss so perfectly? They are no longer young of course. They are close in age to me than the age when they performed this. I love them for this song and many others.
@@petersydes1512 It doesn't make the pain any less and never will. It does make me continue to believe that life is worth living when even peripheral contact with people like you show that it was all worth it. I'll be gone soon but we left behind a few children and grandchildren who realise that love, life and politics are all connected.
I am sorry for your loss, Me and my wife suffered two bereavements of close relatives in the space of less than three weeks in 2020 and the shock and numbness have not faded so I know a little of what you are going through. I have always loved music through thick and thin and it has proved some consolation during the past two years though I have found it harder to listen to as a consequence of trauma. It makes no sense but I feel guilty listening to it as if I should not enjoy anything in the light of what has happened, if that makes sense.
@@eightiesmusic1984sentidas palabras que te engrandecen amigo,te entiendo y sólo espero que pasado el tiempo hayas curado esas heridas,con mucho amor lo lograrás.saludos.
I don't care what anyone else says but for me Deacon Blue had a completely original sound. Their songs were unique and timeless and this particular one is just stunningly beautiful. It has the power to soften my heart after a hard day.
'...completely original...' agreed apart from the 'I ain't missing you at all' John Waite melody and arrangement. hahahhahahaha. Oh hang on... which song came out first? I'm not sure now. Either way I LOVE Deacon Blue. A GREAT Band.
They would have 'broken the Internet' without a doubt. They've sold millions of albums and still sell out concerts, so RU-vid would have made them even more popular.
This was one of the best slower tracks that the band released. Love the lyrics to this. It gets better with age. Can't appreciate this when you're younger I don't think...it's a song about experiences.
Cold coffee won't see you through- did it ever? Probably not. Great lyrics as usual from Ricky, a true wordsmith and great presence on stage. You can see how he would have been a great teacher before Deacon Blue.
There's a sadness and melancholy to this that makes it one of their best songs. The video perfectly complements the song. The way the song builds and builds all the way through reinforces the wistful sentiment of the lyrics and music- testament to the clever songwriting of DB. As usual, great vocals from Ricky Ross and Lorraine Mcintosh.
Ricky Ross, one of Scotland's best songwriters. I've briefly met Dougie Vipond, yes the same BBC Scotland sports presenter who plays the drums with Deacon Blue, he's a good guy! This is a beautiful song.
I remember this great song when I was in hospital when I was getting my ear operation when I was only 13,im 43 now this song just sticks in my mind I love it so much.
I was in my teens when they were at their height, Ross and Lorraine, amazing singers, beautiful voices. When I hear their songs, I just have to stop and listen. Great band. This was one of personal favourite songs of all time.
My favourite, didnt hear it last night at Edinburgh Castle 9~07~22 yet maybe another time! Phenominal this night was epic...in my memories forever xxx Dignity xxxx
Takes me back to 1993, an expat with a tape player in Paris , **** makes me feel old ( but well, to have lived in that fabulous "era" ) great great band ! (not that being Scottish means I am biased ! )
A mi esta canción siempre me sonó como un himno. Quizá un himno de la adolescencencia. Es uno de esos grupos musicales que se quedan con el paso del tiempo. Buenos recuerdos.
This song means a lot to me, that year 1989 we finished the high school and I will never forget the last moment I've spend with carmen, the most beautiful girl I´ve ever seen. Sometimes the best part of our lives doesn't come on time... I will be forever listening to your best song supporting you with my love... Love you guys. 👏👏👏👏
brilliant song. I also think it's strange that DB vids don't get more views on RU-vid. This song is amazing and only a handful of people are watching it compared to other stuff on here. Ah well I still love them. Thanks for the fab music DB
Cold dawn won't comfort you Cold coffee Won't see you through Cold sheets Won't heal your heart Your frozen fingers of your Name so tarred I know so rarely That things come your way Your ways are tender And your paths are straight Your minds not lived in The way ours are set Your heart is open To love and regret Rings and letters they pass you by You wish them well And seldom cry For stones and promises and wedding sighs You've known the times that you've Lived and died These sailors come by And spend time ashore Their thoughts are hoarded As yours have been stored Your minds not lived in The way ours are set Your heart is open To love and regret Outside in the morning air I hear the soundtrack of the Blues harp player It touches feelings that you Don't arouse Knicks me back to that Shuttered house Take me back When they're all out Take me back to that Shuttered house I know so rarely That things come your way Your ways are tender And your paths are straight Your minds not lived in The way ours are set Your heart is open To love and regret Love and regret Love and regret
What a joke..this song should have 200 million views . Kids wake up..get your heads out of snapchat and listen to something that makes you feel about your girlfriend.. Stop texting her... Stop what's app...listen...tell her how you feel........ So sad
@@arsenalvibes Thanks for your reply. I was very sad at his passing when he died and was going to donate to a charity for pancreatic cancer. I didn't at the time ( no excuse) but I will make sure I do before 2020 is out to make amends in a small way.
