Letting go of someone you've become so close to is one of the hardest experiences in life, Dreaming about them, never really stopping loving them but want them to be happy, Litteraly walking through hell just to know they are happy. His emotion only adds to the turmoil i feel in myself thinking about watching someone so close just walk away.
Holy crap...That was the most emotionally sang song I've ever seen...his voice is breaking through out the entire song.... Simply a fantastic artist....your #1James....
It gives me goosebumps when the crowd starts singing the chorus, and then it gets gradually louder and louder, with James Blunt mouthing the words to the chorus while the audience sings it. It makes you think that something sad/powerful happened in his life.
Love this song...the Emotion in his voice..awesome! The song that's the Story of my Life in the pursuit of Love....people crash and burning for each other....people coming together finding happiness and poof gone, dreams swept away like the Tides coming and going....grains of sand replaced by another but the BEST thing is....I keep those certain grains of sand in my heart...the Pearls of my Heart~!
This song perfectly captures what it's like to lose someone you love. If I had this on cassette I would have long ago worn it out. Thank you for this Mr. Blunt.
Tears Streaming down my face once again.....This song by James does it to me every single time I hear it......Love really can hurt so much @ times but I would not trade it for Anything else in the World.....Bob
Perhaps it's because Jame's been through a sad experience as such. Hence remembers how it made him feel and this is why he can sing with such conviction. I've just lost my husband so recently. This song just takes the words right out of my soul... Goodbye my love. :(
God, could someone sing a song more emotionally than James?? I would kill to be in one of his concerts... He simply rocks! And I can;t even descrabe how I feel listening to this song. It's a song that literally rocks my world 'cause I'm sooo hurt right now...
I'm in so much pain right now. Never felt pain like this. Wish I could have her back. But she's made it obvious. There is no going back. This song is ridiculously painful. But can't stop listening to it
Sometimes in life you see something which touches the divine ,this is such a moment, you cannot fake that level of emotion ,something at the time he was singing this was really haunting him ,only real love produces this, thank you James for sharing with us.
I saw him live about 2007 when all these songs were about, he was great. I don't know what happened to him after about 2009, he seems to have just disappeared.
Speaking from your soul...it reaches so many that need to feel loved before they fall to their knees because they love so very deeply...and your verse says 'it may be over' but true love is never never over...it waits...it waits... it waits until true love can reunite. True love never moves on...it never lets go. Goodbye my lover, goodbye my friend, you have been the one for me. I still hold your hand in mine when I'm asleep. you have been the one for me. you have been the one for me. so HOLLOW
NOBODY...I REPEAT...EVEN COMPARES TO THIS MAN'S PASSION, LOVE, LYRICS OR OTHERWISE.....I LOVE YOU JAMES! GOD BLESS YOU, AND KEEP YOU SAFE ALWAYS......I WRITE POETRY ...(PRETTY GREAT AT IT)...I HOLD EACH AND EVERY ONE OF THEM CLOSE TO MY HEART..YOU INSPIRE ME..(NOW)..TO LET GO, AND TRY TO PUT OUT INTO THE WORLD..ALL THE LOVE IN MY HEART....YOUR SOO WONDERFUL!
Why is it that someone who is in touch with his feelings and is obviously deeply sensitive has to be accused of being a pothead or a cokehead? This man is beautiful; I wish there were more like him in this world.
what passion ! wow now thats a man who realy knows what it means to truely love with your whole heart, to bad for the one who lost , i'd never let him go !
lovely ,can one may say .it is touchy deep down into the soul of one who might have a heart, a heart of fully give out to someone who is special ever .......... never forget you dear!!!!!!
Mine is called Elena as well. It's kind of my own stupid mistake, 29/07/1980 I left her behind at Bratislava Hlavna Stanica in than still communist CzechoSlovakia. In december 1985 she married another guy and it took untill June 2020 before we were reconnected on Facebook. We're soulmates and probably Twin Flames so we still might have a chance, Sometime Somewhere in Summertime
i know that he wants leave me soon, very soon i am listening to this song over and over and i cant stop crying its so true that i am addicted to him i cannot live without him
passion..energy ...beautiful...heart warming..soul touching...fabulous performance ..i admire this man..voice is tremendous:) i love how powerful this whole performance is 5*****
Against All Odds. For Cryin' Out Loud. If You Could Read My Mind. Separate Ways/Worlds Apart. Total Eclipse of the Heart. This song is up there with those brilliant works.
This performance is so heart-wrenching. Regardless of opinions of James Blunt as a person, or whatever, no other song touches the core as much as this one, it would seem. Anyone who has loved a person truly and lost them for whatever reasons, this will instantly connect & carry those feelings. I'm not sure that's a good thing. Either way, it's a beautiful performance and a very touching song.
james blunt i wish i could see you i wish just to take a picture with you .. your eyes and your face sing before your mouth ...you let me cry when i look at you your song really touched and covered my heart
its so hard when someone stops loving you. You do everything you can but you can feel them slipping away. i have listened to this song over and over for the last 4 days since she left me and cry every time
the ONLY song everrrrr capable of evoking sooo much emotional , heartwrenching , joy , pain , RAW feelings withN me! jb, outstanding! ...REAL, RAW, TRUTH, ...... his masterpiece imo.... have to know TRUE love to feel HIS pain. jb = brilliance. pure and simple!
Nailed on the ground How this song came in to me that day..."when there is nothing left to say..." Words written, my lover, my friend what to do I am lost in this world but I know, you have been the one for me, you are the one for me..I am a dreamer, it's my dreams you take This song tells so much...I still hold your hand, I am kneeling at the altar of your eyes. Damned those eyes, this love, this hunger. So hollow hunnybunny LYA
watched this video more than 100 times, and happy to say that never got tired of listening to this!!! whenever i watch this, i just kept my eye on his eyes & feel the song, this is not just a song to listen but to feel!!! really unexplainable feelings & love it!!! best of the best heart touching song ever I've heard!!! hats off broda!!! cheeeers!!!!!
When the audience starts singing his words, and then he sings with them... :) Touches my soul. Must be magical for a singer to hear their words sung back to them in such a mass of voices like that.
une chanson qui rappelle que la vie est dur mais qu elle vaut la peine d etre vecu, malgré ses douleur,ces chagrin,ces larmes... le bonheur est la il faut juste le trouver et prendre le temps de le voir...... une ame blesser
there was a time that i couldnt listen to this song without crying..but i am no longer filled with sadness as everything is impermanent and now my heart is again filled with sunshine..never be afraid to love.....
LYRICS Did I disappoint you or let you down? Should I be feeling guilty or let the judges frown? 'Cause I saw the end, before we'd begun Yes, I saw you were blind and I knew I had won So I took what's mine by eternal right Took your soul out into the night It may be over but it won't stop there I am here for you if you'd only care You touched my heart, you touched my soul Changed my life and all my goals And love is blind, and that I knew when My heart was blinded by you I've kissed your lips and held your head Shared your dreams and shared your bed I know you well, I know your smell I've been addicted to you Goodbye my lover Goodbye my friend You have been the one You have been the one for me Goodbye my lover Goodbye my friend You have been the one You have been the one for me I am a dreamer and when I wake You can't break my spirit, it's my dreams you take And as you move on, remember me Remember us and all we used to be I've seen you cry, I've seen you smile I've watched you sleeping for a while I'd be the father of your child I'd spend a lifetime with you I know your fears and you know mine We've had our doubts but now we're fine And I love you, I swear that's true I cannot live without you Goodbye my lover Goodbye my friend You have been the one You have been the one for me Goodbye my lover Goodbye my friend You have been the one You have been the one for me And I still hold your hand in mine In mine when I'm asleep And I will bear my soul in time When I'm kneeling at your feet Goodbye my lover Goodbye my friend You have been the one You have been the one for me Goodbye my lover Goodbye my friend You have been the one You have been the one for me I'm so hollow baby I'm so hollow I'm so, I'm so, I'm so hollow I'm so hollow baby I'm so hollow I'm so, I'm so, I'm so hollow
NO matter what the critics say about James... he is the one, that gets the song of no one else, and he is the one that melts the hearts of lovers. So haters?... Move on to the next, James stays true because it real.
