My dad listened to this song during his cancer battle. He passed away last week. This song is amazing & means so much to me. What a sensational voice he has.
James Arthur - was at a low point in his life but took the courage to come out of the darkness and chase after a dream - so glad he made that dream a reality....
no place in society and no place in the music business for racism, bullying and homophobia. as this fool has found out. he was lucky to get the chance he had and nobody likes a foul mouthed big headed lout which is what he was. he has not made a recovery - far from it.
perfectlyjust Hi, I am not denying your words but where did you get this information because racism, bullying and homophobia or any acts of cruelty against another human being go right against my grain. Regards Lorraine

I hope you're fine during this pandemic I just want to say thank you for the lovely comment and kind words. please send me a direct message jamesarthur8262@gmail.com
+107291auke What the heck man you should grow up. He hasn't said anything to offend anyone and you insult him and his country with this extremely offensive post. Shame on you!
My ex is a recovering alcoholic, so I used to play this song for him every morning and evening just to remind him that he is a soldier and his recovery belongs to him. This song is pure. #KeepSoaring
Janelle 09 my dads a recovering opioid addict. At the end of this months he’ll be 3 months sober! Its nice to have my dad back i hope it stays this way
+Sam Jones Thankyou Sam. Its a hard road to walk. Now I have my 2 Daughters & Husband it doesn't seem so hard. I had a choice get clean or be a horrible person who chooses drugs over an unborn baby. I was 2 months pregnant & said NO way I checked into rehab & got clean & after that..... well the rest is history :) .
This song might even change my life for the better as I am about to have another go at 'recovery' after a relapse from drug and alcohol abuse. And being a musician myself, one of artistic and self proclaimed "I have insight into life itself", as we all do under the influence of drugs and alcohol....weather that be true or not...it is what we see in the 'straight mind' that truly defines us. It can be bloody hard, I'll tell you that...but when achieved, tis a joy to sit on that mountain of "Recovery".
Wow Matty. I am very proud of you for coming forward with this statement, very well stated, too! I know you can do it :-)) Be well and stay the course. Wishing you all the best!! ~Jackie
Matthew Trayling real true life is a wonder on its own....but i do know how you feel......keep on keeping on.... much much love...... it will be worth it guy...xxxx
Bhavish Megha thank you for showing your support ! I cannot begin to explain how much it means to me. It was a challenge, but I have learned to love myself after that relationship. I'm so happy and grateful I went through the abusive relationship because I learned a lot. I'm also happy that I can use music as an emotional outlet.
You are never alone in this world! if you feel lonely or a bit embarrassed to tell your problem to your close friends and all that just p.m me.. i know that we don't know each other and we are barely friend but i would like to help you and to support you in any problems that you have.. Getting out of a relationship is hard when you really love someone and myself i have just broke with my ex but she did it.. i couldn't get out.. its good when you have someone who you can talk about anything and can get support back.. Music can heal your soul. music makes you realize things that you aren't seeing and it destroy your soul too!! So if you wanna talk, Facebook : Bhavish Megha , What's app : +23059041370 Hope that we can talk again... Have a nice day and take care corinne
Commitment2Risk I know this was a month ago but I just wanted to say you are such a beautiful and powerful woman, Im glad you have been strong enough to handle all of those terrible things because no one ever deserves this sort of relationship, in regards deniz :)
Wspaniały chłopaczyna o niesamowitym głosie. W swoich utworach pokazuje, że potrafi śpiewać. Wielu jest takich, którzy mają głosy, ale grają pod publikę drętwe pioseneczki, które tłamszą ich głosy. Miło jest posłuchać osoby, która nie ulega presji. Pozdrawiam.
To anyone visiting this page from the US....... If you love James and this video, please tell all your friends and their friends. We want to get James known in the USA as soon as possible.
6 years ago I decided to live a healthy life, I went to a clinic to get help. At that time I listened to this song and imagined what it would be like to be healthy. 6 years later (2 years clean) Everything is so much better than I dreamed it would be. Believe in you there is a better life waiting for you💫
My name is brona and I am trying to highlight mental illness and how people are treated I am protesting in mallow outside Norwood it is a mental health facility love this song it shows how mental illness can effect someone xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Mental health has damaged me I'm only 11 and I've already tried to commit suicide twice by taking 21 fluoxitine tablets and 2 ibuprofen tablets and a diazipam tablet
@@toiletpapereater2964 imo nothing. All we can do is is model a healthy, sober life and hope it inspires them to get clean. They have to be ready on their own, no words will ever sway a mind made up and hell bent on destruction
po przesłuchaniu tej piosenki mam ochotę na bardzo długi komentarz... Po pierwsze we współczesnej muzyce jest coraz mniej takich piosenek, które są dominowane przez imprezowe hity. Po drugie bardzo prawdziwy tekst, który oddaje współczesny świat. James nie boi się pokazać, że na świecie jest dużo zła i bólu. Po trzecie jak zawsze niesamowity głos Jamesa. Od chwili kiedy wygrał X-Factora śledzę jego karierę i ciesze się nowymi piosenkami. Pozdrowionka dla wszystkich fanów Jamesa
Wydaje mi się, że to przez taki typ muzyki. Pop zazwyczaj kojarzył się właśnie z muzyką imprezową. Jak szukasz piosenek z przekazem to szukaj raczej w innych gatunkach, nie będę tu pisał w jakiej żeby oszczędzić sobie hejtów.
Ta piosenka nie jest o tym "że na świecie jest dużo zła i bólu", tylko o tym, że w X-factorze zrobili z niego małpkę, wszyscy dookoła nagle zaczęli się nim interesować (a wielu krtykować, okazywać nienawiść, której nie mógł zrozumieć i zastanawia się, jak on mógł być kiedyś taki wymagający, jak ci hejterzy teraz wobec niego), przygniotło go to, miał depresję i teraz powstaje.
Sorry, ale mam zupełnie inny punkt widzenia, a + 159 osoby tylko to potwierdzają. Szczerze nie rozumiem co piosenka o naszej regeneracji ma do robienia jak to ujęłaś X-factorowej małpki z depresja. P.s.nie weź tego za hatowanie po prostu mam inna opinię o moim ulubionym wokaliście.
This song is amazing, I'm glad the video was toned down and simplistic, to let the beauty and depth of the song and James' voice stand on its own. Absolutely incredible.
I don't want to play this game no more I don't wanna play it I don't want to stay 'round here no more I don't wanna stay here Like rain on a Monday morning Like pain that just keeps on going on Look at all the hate they keep on showing I don't want to see that Look at all the stones they keep on throwing I don't want to feel that Like Sun that will keep on burning I used to be so discerning, oh [Chorus] In my recovery I’m a soldier at war I have broken down walls I defined I designed My recovery In the sound of the sea In the oceans of me I defined I designed My recovery Keep soaring Keep song-writing Keep soaring Keep song-writing My recovery [Verse 2] And I can hear the choirs keep on singing Tell me what they’re saying And I can hear the phone It keeps on ringing I don’t want to answer I know that I used to listen And I know I’ve become dismissive, oh
beginning my journey yet again, last drink was August 12 of this year. been through a lot including prison and thank God I made it out to a halfway house for treatment.. this time around is going to be the greatest thing ever, I have no more desire for alcohol and it's all because of God! so grateful I gave my life to him, I pray every night and ever since I began positive things started happening and keep on happening! never lose faith because you can do it!
+prince kabyl I'm sorry friend,make it more specific to me pls..I didn't got you(what do you mean by saying that you agree with Leona Lewis)??..it reminds you "bleeding love",what?!..Happy new year by the way!...
@@gracerogers3324 no one asked if you asked... you think all comments on RU-vid are supposed to be personal answers to your questions? I sense a little narcissism 😂
Im crying right now because this reminds me of how hard it was and still is difficult for me to recover from my depression and how nothing is impossible if you actually believe you can get better and i still have depression but im fighting as hard as i can to recover it remides me that you got to keep moving forward even if it is hard to do
This song for me tells a deep dark story. I used to be very broken inside as a child. But god was with me and still is, it's never to late to ask for mercy, peace, love and happiness!
It's crazy how polarised public opinion is of him. Have the people who criticise him in the tabloids ever actually listened to his music, as opposed to hear it whilst distracting themselves doing something else? If they did, they might just have some respect for the man!
I think it's simply about being able to separate the artist from the person. He's a homophobic prick, but he's an incredibly talented singer and songwriter. I can criticise his attitude and respect his work at the same time.
Nina R Listen Oh! clueless one. Lucy Spraggan, who's comments started all the hassle, after James made that comment to rapper Micky Worthless. in a rap. Came out publicly and defended James saying, no way is James homophobic. But felt his comments were out of place in todays society. Which is quite correct. Also during X-factor shows, James roomed with Ryland Clark for 10 weeks, and BTW, became best mates. Ryland also came out publicly, and also defended James, stating, James is not homophobic, he's just a silly boy doing what he did.
I guess I thought I knew more about this than I actually do. That *is* silly, but not unusual, and much less serious than I thought. At this point, the thing that saddens me the most is the fact that I was surprised not to find any insults in the comment of someone who disagrees with me. Cheers.
The reason why we all adore his music so much is because you can FEEL the authenticity. I doubt that there's one human being on this planet that hasn't experienced something he sings about. We feel his pain, because every one of us has felt pain. We feel his enthusiasm, because every one of us has felt the feeling of falling in love, or doing something we love. We can relate to him because (for the longest time), we've not truly felt emotion from music. And he gives that to us. He's a TRUE artist.
I feel very nice hearing that so many people dealing with severe illnesses are able to deal with them through this song!the fact that he has succeeded something so important makes him a true artist who touched our life
I get your points but I kinda disagree with that you think that this song transfers the acceptance of mental health, psychological diseases because I think that Get Down is the best song that captures these emotions of dealing with anxiety, depression and mental health. Just my opinion, what's your favorite one of IAMSITE ?
this song hits home for me. I too am a recovering addict. I allowed my addiction to literally take everything from me. I lost my children, my home, my belongings, my life. Here I am 165 days clean fighting to get it back. I went into inpatient treatment on my fathers birthday whom I lost to a drug overdose, my clean date holds a lot of importance and I am going to fight like hell to keep it and to stay out of the hell addiction put me in.
way to go! I to am a recovering drug addict. I am 45 days clean after a relapse. I just came across this song two days ago and am in love with his passion and talent. this song means a lot to me. To all the addicts who are suffering, you can do this, one hour at a time, one day at a time!
Paige Music those words can be very triggering for an alcoholic. They are not cured as well as can never be cured from alcoholism. Many relapses happen because they think now that they can “control it” because they have so far. They think they are cured when in reality, they cannot be. They have a gene that will never go away. So saying those words may trigger them to believe they are cured :/
I’m recovering heroin addict this song gives me strength. I almost gave in last night. This morning I played this on my way to work.. it gives me strength and chills. I am literally fighting for my life. I am lucky to be here last month I OD’d and j have been SOBER for 2 weeks now.
Please babe keep up with your recovery. I'm a heroin addict to and I wished I could go 1 Day without the worry of how I'm going to pay for my next fix. Etc. Your amazing woman xoxox
@Payton Boggess Cus James Arthur said he was homeless at one point and in voluntary foster care. He wasn't being mean he was saying James Arthur is inspiring and if he can rise, we all can. He has talent and he is blessing all of us with it.
This wonderful young man, James Arthur, is astoundingly excellent through his passionate performances. May God bless him with the desires of his heart, with the absence of any anxiety. I would like to get to know him better.
Lyrics 🦋 I don’t wanna play this game no more.. I don’t play it.. I don’t wanna stay round here no more.. I don’t wanna stay here.. like rain on a Monday morning.. Like pain that just keeps on going ohh. Look at all the hate there showing I don’t wanna see that... Look at all The stones they keep on throwing.. I don’t wanna feel that.. Like sun that will keep on buring And I used to be so Discerning ohh. In my recovery! I’m a soldier at a war I have broken down walls I defined I designed My recovery In the Soul of the sea in the oceans of me.. I defined I designed My recovery... keep souring X4 My recovery X4 I can hear the Choirs keep on singing Tell me what there saying I can hear the phone that keeps on ringing I don’t wanna answer I know I’ve become dismissive oh In my recovery I’m a soldier at a war I have broken down walls I defined I designed my recovery Like pain that just keeps on coming oh I defined I designed My recovery Keep souring X4 My recovery X5 My recovery X10 My recovery, I’m a soldier at a war.. I have broken down walls I defined I designed My recovery In the soul of the sea In the oceans of me I defined I designed My recovery (carry on) My recovery X4 Background- keep souring X12

Leona no?! She outsings both of them! I`m not talking about the commercial succes, but the quality and the range of her voice, And the emotion she transmits. Have you heard her singing Snow Patrol`s Run LIVE at the X Factor? If that doesn`t give you the chills, then you might as well cut your ears cause you`re deaf.
***** I don't like DIVAS in general. so sorry. I don't like Leona... she makes me sleep I'm so sorry... it's about taste not about range. It's music !!!! Freddie Mercury was/is the best no question about it. Adele has personality, Leona is boring but only to me, no worries.
This song has seemed be the only song I wanna hear lately Not sure its a good or bad thing. This song is by far one Of the best .....its helpin me through some tough times.
I hope you're fine during this pandemic I just want to say thank you for the lovely comment and kind words. please send me a direct message jamesarthur8262@gmail.com
Soooo much respect for you and this song. I am in the middle of my struggle, but this song hit me in a way tonight to make me feel the strength to leave it all behind. I can not quit rewinding in between shedding a tear. I am thankful for you man.
I don't care about how many likes I get on this but I've just recently learned about this song and many more. But this song right here, has me feeling something that's been hidden for a long time. This isn't something I want to feel but then again, sometimes it just happens. As he sings this, I realize I have a lot in common with the song. I design my own recovery; this song defines depression perfectly. I have major depression and this song just releases the pain I feel. Thank you for writing this song and many others.
It’s not an easy road to walk. As a person in long term recovery, I didn’t follow traditional paths. And I literally designed it from different parts of current options. I’m ok with it, life changes, our recovery changes and what we need to do to continue to be strong changes. Recovery is ever changing as we evolve over time. It’s the hardest thing I’ve ever done. Keep moving forward. You’re worth it😊♥️
@@amandathomas2272 It sure can ...unfortunately...I have suffered severe depression since I was 16 yrs old I struggle daily to go on living and not take the easy way out. yes, I have tried every antidepressant combined with other prescriptions and if life is going ok I can maintain but still depressed. But when life starts crashing all around me and problems and stress build up then I fight hard against wanting to end my life. It sucks.
I think that the reason why this song became so popular is because so many people feel identified with the story, including me It's so sad to know that more than one went through that situation 😔😔
+Maira I disagree. It's the very fact that others have gone through similar harrowing situations that makes us feel supported and gives us answers and a way through.
Me too. I am with Anna and I am still fighting. It has been for five years now-bullying at school, death of friend,goodbye forever with a important person,sexual trauma. Well,that means you are stronger than me. Thank you! And I'll try to recovery! Someday at least I hope
Recovery from anything is a hard road to walk.but we can get to the end of road.i never throught I would recovery from alcohlic addiction.buy I did.never give up.
Wrecking Ball has had over 8 million views so COME ON EVERYONE - let's help get this video up there too. Tell EVERYONE you know to watch it and tell them to tell EVERYONE they know. You can see they won't be disappointed when they do......
Lucia Rodriguez Yes I agree. I just wanted as many people as possible to see Recovery because it is such a good video. And those of us who want to see his beautiful face up close get plenty of opportunity in this particular clip.
No Brittany you can NEVER watch James too much :) He's so beautiful and his voice is so fabulous. Can you let all your friends know about him - we want to get him better known in the States.
Justin Bieber nao podes me comparar com os putos da tua turma pois nao sou puto e se es da turma deles é pq es puto/pita tbm.. nao quero saber se é gay.. apenas tenho pena dele.. e alguem que gosta dele tbm me deixa com pena.
limitada ao ponto de ver que alguem que não canta um piço e há centenas/milhares de pessoas que cantam melhor e nao ganham o que ele ganha nem nunca ganharão secar uma decima parte.. yah.. e ainda por cima ser um triste como esse gajo..
James Arthur is a soldier, he fought through all this pain. He made it through recovery and honestly, I'm so PROUD of him! No one should've to go through this pain, but he did, so I PRAISE him for making a RECOVERY!
@@okandnowlol9947 I'm so sorry for the late reply. James Arthur is a fighter, he has fought through his anxiety and mental health every single day and it is really hard, when you don't meet a person's standards, but he did. He hasn't had an easy life, where his parents got divorced, he has had it tough. He has struggled with depression and I feel for him, because I know how it feels to be living with that. It ain't easy and I'm so glad he made it out! He fought and fought and he made it out! I respect him so much, because he has been in the same situation as me and just by listening to his song's from time to time. It makes me a stronger women every single day. He has fought through mental health and I'm really happy for him to have got the recovery he needed. As you listen to his song's it says "I've broken down walls". This means that he has broken all bits of pieces that were hurting him in his soul, body and mind. I know I'm not alone in this, it is really hard and I'm just glad he got the help he needed:) He is a true warrior, god bless him!! I'm so happy he shared his journey with us!
James Arthur is a beautiful human being.. Such a beautiful voice accompanied by a humble soul.. And this song touches many who are in recovery.. It touches me..
the high notes he hit at the end are extraordinary, this artist sings with real feelings!!! which lack most of today's music. I take my hat off for you James Arthur
MohabOmer.OmarRaslan.MoayedQurashy.BadrMadani most artists lack the talent or technique and just don't connect with their songs on an emotional level anymore. Too many hype songs and not enough *REAL* songs.
James Arthur, James Bay, Ed Sheeran, Adele, Tom Odell, Sam Smith, Sia, Shawn Mendes, Ella Henderson, John Legend, Bruno Mars... Should make a song together.
Hi dear person reading this comment :) I just wanted to let YOU know that you are beautiful! You deserve the best in your life! Please remember how much I love you Have a nice day :*
I first heard this song while in treatment. My counselor played it for us in one of our group meetings. With every lyric the more powerful it became. I still listen to this song today everytime I need a little extra strength to keep me from using. I've got over 2 years clean. Thank you God and the NA program for giving me my life back
@Payton Boggess WHATTT? 🤣DO YOU KNOW ABOUT SHAWN, HOW ORIGINAL IS THIS ARTIST ........IF YOU DON’T CARE ABOUT HIM OR ABOUT HIS MUSIC(you don’t have taste but it’s ok....)DON’T JUDGE HIM AND DEFINITELY DON’T PUT WITH MENDES ARMY BECAUSE FOR US HE MEANS THE ENTIRE WORLD OK? I DON’T WANT TO SPEAK LIKE THAT BUT FOR HIM I WILL DO ANYTHING.....SO STOP ✋ AND DON’T HATE....SPECIALLY SOMEONE LIKE SHAWN MENDES IF YOU DON’T KNOW NOTHING ABOUT HIM.
@Payton Boggess FROM SOME MONTHS I START TO LIKE JAMES AND I RESPECT HIM BUT WHEN I SEE COMMENTS LIKE THAT MAKES ME SO ANGRY AND I DON’T WANT TO HATE THIS ARTISTS.....BECAUSE SOMEONE SPEAK LIKE THAT ABOUT MY IDOL....SO PLEASE..😒TPWfookingK
