Most of Anohni’s compositions take more than one person to sing. Remarkable songs. I think a long time from now people will be discovering them. Like trees that have grown slowly bigger.
New to me - Just beautiful, glad I found this, having a real shitty time at the moment and this song just seems to put the pieces in order for me. Happy Christmas folks
The most beautiful version of this song ever. For my step grandma who passed away Christmas Eve 2020. Goodnight beautiful lady, I will always be thankful for you treating me as one of your own. My memories will live on forever ❤
Absolute perfection. My mom use to tell me "You have to have hope and be optimistic" . After her death in 2007, I looked up those familiar words that she repeated during her life. Hope: That intangible feeling that tells you things are going to get better. Optimism: How you feel when you see evidence that things are getting better. Thank you for the reminder that my life is in front of me..Not behind me. We all HOPE for that special someone, we just have to believe in what we hope for. Gandhi said, "be the change that you want to see in this world." It isn't just hope..We are actors in a play.. We have to play our part in manifesting the miracles we want to see. (We have to do our part in the story) God bless you both and thank you.
Hope there's someone Who'll take care of me When I die, will I go Hope there's someone Who'll set my heart free Nice to hold, when I'm tired There's a ghost on the horizon When I, go to bed How can I fall asleep at night How will I rest my head Oh I'm scared of the middle place Between light and nowhere I don't want to be the one Left in there, left in there There's a man on the horizon Wish that I'd go to bed If I fall to his feet tonight Will allow, rest my head So here's hoping I will not drown Or paralyze in light And Godsend I don't want to go To the seal's watershed Hope there's someone Who'll take care of me When I die, will I go Hope there's someone Who'll set my heart free Nice to hold, when I'm tired Ooh Ooh
Thank you for posting lyrics. I heard a cover sang on The Voice Portugal. The man singing was haunting. Then a friend said it was by a band from UK. So here I am I’ll be finding out more of the music they do. Very beautiful sounds they create. I’m subscribed and looking forward to more. Thanks again ! 👍🏻
This... was just.... AMAZING... my heart just Exploded ( in a good way of course) .... this music was the first i danced with my beloved fiance and was in that moment i realized we were in love... in november 1st of 2019 we tie the knot... this happened in 2009.😍 So blessed!😍 Thank you for this amazing song! You two are AMAZING!! Congrats!
I have always loved this song since I heard it the first time by Antony & The Johnsons, but always thought the backing music let it down, so your version of this is absolutely beautiful, thank you so much, I'm so glad you covered it, looking for your album now 💜
Totally agree!!! I love Anthony & the Johnsons version too, but seemed to add too much at the end, of what I felt was a beautiful melody. Defo prefer the lads' version
@@taraodonovan5920 Spot on with the ending there Tara!! I know it's supposed to be powerful for a reason, but strings would have done his beautiful fragile voice so more justice at the end, still powerful but also fragile 💔 I've been longing for someone to do an appropriate cover of this song for years now, Glen & Ronan have done the original version proud, still simple, still heartfelt, still beautiful. 🥰
I totally understand the point, but personally I'm really not a fan of the vocals in the original - I get that it's vulnerable and honest, but I find it inaccessible and weird. Musically, this is so magnificent that I experience emotion in a different way - less to do with hearing individual pain but in how beautiful the harmonies and music are, all as one. I know that's probably not a popular opinion, but there's something a bit "ick" about the original for me.
Thought these artists had beautiful voices and musicality but they were draining the life out of this song and making it 'Glee'. Then towards the end I was blubbing like a baby - beautiful ending. Great job.
I agree with all the comments here-yes something is lost when it is reproduced by another but it’s the two boys interpretation of it. Is the original better? Of course it is but is sung by someone who feels and expresses every word beautifully and the voice? Holy cow, no one could come close. I think these guys made a really good go of it, a little over produced but outstanding vocals by both. Well done lads, amazing stuff.
