James Morrison & Nelly Furtado - Broken Strings (Lyrics) 

One of the most underrated duets of all time, James Morrison is a musical genius and Nelly furtado is underated

Never used to understand these lyrics as a child.... now I've had my heart broke it makes perfect sense:/

I first listened to that song about 2 years ago.It used to play on the radio very often.Until last winter I used to turn on the radio in the car and listen to this song every time my daddy went and picked me up from the ballet classes.Now my daddy has passed away,the car isn't ours anymore and the ballet classes stopped forever! I always knew that music can make the winter summer but now I see that every song is what we make it to be for each one of us and this song it's a memory itself for me!

For me the song isn't so much about the act of breaking up but more about the fact that you realize it's just not working no matter how hard either of you try.

2024 anyone?

This song has grown my faith. I hope it moves others the same way. However if it has helped you in different ways hopefully it has softened your heart just enough for the changes and mendings that had to be made. Thank you to the highest, thank you Lord, thank you Nelly and Morris, thank you Mom, Dad and fellow humans from all religions beliefs around the world. Let's make this world a better place.

I truly understand this song now after getting my heart broken

Anyone still listening to them because I am

amazing song, grew up with it hearing it on the radio in the car and now that i've found it again all those memories come back

Omg I havent heard this song in years, and its such a coincidence i just found it because i can relate so much

These lyrics hit so hard yet I love this song

I can't do anything but sing along when this song comes on the radio, it's so perfect and relatable...

I absolutely LOVE this song and i forgot about it until i got my laptop fixed and found it in my favorites folder. This song is so amazing! I havent heard it since 2010.

Brings back millions of memories that I have always wanted to remeber. Love this song to pieces. Nelly and James go together, my opinion.

Crazy how the last time I listened to this song few years ago was because of this guy. And now that I'm listening to it again, its still him, its still about him. I love you. I will cherish what we had forever.

I’ve know this song since I was a child and I always come back to it once in a while and it hits different e-ve-ry time

Coming back listening to this song. This was one of the ‘go to’ songs i would listen to as I slit my wrists,I was in such a bad place,the other day marked 2 years since I tried to take my own life. And I’m so happy to now be able to say I’m in such a better place,I’ve never been happier,I think this song is amazing but wow I’m so proud of how far I’ve come. There is always light at the end of the tunnel guys❤️

ANYONE STILL LISTEN?

The way he hits that note in "OHHH it tears me up" 😩😩😩

This song is one of my all-time favourites. Its just so good.

This song has been on my mind lately.

this song will never get old, love it !

this song makes me remember that time my imaginary boyfriend broke up with me. It was really bad

I love the "You cant play on broken strings," Its sounds like its meaning you cant play with my feelings anymore because there broken, and my feelings are now different. :(:) This song makes me feel happy and sad!

ive been listening and singing along to this when i was a child and doesn’t understand the lyrics but now this song hits different when you grow up.

Wonderful song by James Morrison ! I've discovered this song for 3 years, and i love it

OMG, the lyrics sound so real to me. This song is pretty good, I love it. Vampire diaries

His voice and the beautiful lyrics make this song magical, it just makes me wanna cry...

WHOS LISTENING 9TH JANUARY 2019??? BELTING SONG... HIS VOICE IS AMAZING:) HEART TOUCHING SAD BUT I ♥ IT X THANKS 4 THE UPLOAD GUYS/GALS .. X

I love James Morrison. He is such a great singer.

I listened to it back then, and I still listen to it now in 2013. Such a classic, this song.

Haven't heard this song in ages and I'm re-watching tvd. S02, E16, last scene. Maybe the best teen drama series I've ever watched and the nostalgia only adds to it

I've never heard this song before.. I can't relate to this song right now in my life, but it still almost brought me to tears. This is an incredible song!

"How can I give anymore when I love you a little less than before"..true sentence

This is one of the few songs i can listen to even without sharing its content. It's so beautiful, that i could listen to it even if i've never felt those feelings.

Still in love with this song like the first time

Yup! This song is talking about me now let see in next 3 months 💪 💃

I love this song! It brings back good memories!

Very nice song reminded me someone 😭

I remember going home in the car from one of my lil brothers football matches and this song playing on the radio and it's been stuck in my head for years :)

Woaaah the memories of me loving this song 💛💛 still lovely

This is one of those songs I can sing every word to and I don't hesitate to sing dramatically in the kitchen

I think it was 2010 when i first heard this song. I had evrythin i loved such as friends and I was trusted. but I 2012 I got into trouble with the police and started fights and got excluded from school almost every term. And in 2013 I got kicked out off college for stupid shit and then I did not know what to do so I started self harming again and I was not just working out for me so I tried to end my life and I released there is my life to live for so I went home and started to listen to music and then this came on and I enjoyed this song as a way to show everyone how i truly fetl about what I did back then and then I got into shit again I've lost the only person who understands me and I have almost lost half off my family but I kind a have I lost the only decent boyfriend I had cause I started to do drugs and shit like that and in 2014 I am back in trouble with the police and I have lost everything cause off what I have done but thanks to this song by James Morrison and Nelly Furtado that my life is back on track so thank you both for the mega help off writing this song my life is back on track and I hope that it would stay on track xxxxxxxx

I love this song ❤the lyrics of this song moves me ✅💯👌it fit my past👌

This song never gets old for me.

Hör mir grad mal so alte Lieder an😍❤️

Vampire Diaries season 2 episode 16 brought me here :'D

This song inspires me . Because I know what it feels like . It is really beautiful too . It has been my favorite .. Even though my favorite songs change about , it always comes back to this song.

When I was 13, I was questioning how can they fall out of love that easy when you're in love with someone you say. After 11 years, I got to understand the true meaning of this song. This happens when the trust was broken in a relationship and you both hurt each other so much that no matter how hard you try to mend it...the wound just keeps bleeding until you feel numb with the pain--so numb for you to feel the same love with that person who hurt you so much.

I'm at the great part of RU-vid. Where you look at the related videos list and just think "Oh my god, I haven't heard that song in AGES". Where you listen to those amazing songs that you think you forgot but are actually lingering at the back of your mind. Where you remember every word from a song you haven't heard for years. This is true music. Not the trance crap that is modern music. James Morrison, Kings of Leon, Danel Powter, Coldplay, Oasis, The Fray. This is true music.

This is one of my favorite songs. Ever.

Still listening as we approach 2024 😀

Going into 2019 with a broken heart. Anyone else?

keep coming back to this beautiful song

heard this while driving and i just broke down couldnt control my feelings anymore just had to let it out

While in laundry, I just suddenly heard this song in my mind. Back when I was younger, in MYX, I used to watch and listen to this painful song. I just knew it's painful and I never knew that it could hurt even more with experience and true deep cuts and wounds. I miss James Morrison. He knows how to dig in your wounds. 💔

"its like chasing the very last train, when we both know is too late" who had never felt this before?

masterpiece..

I love this ❤️ song ..it just makes me feel I am somewhere else 😭😭

best TRIO EVER !!! why is it TRIO ? Jason Morisson Nelly Furtado & me haha.. i really love this song cant stop me from singing and playing it over and over again

You can't feel anything...That you're heart don't want to feel...

When I see people commenting 'still listening to this in 2012', it breaks my heart because I didn't realise the song was old enough for you to put that. I can't believe how quick time has gone since this was released. I miss the old days when me and my cousin would sit in the back of the car screaming our hearts out singing this song, not bothered what anyone thought of us, yeah, I miss those times a lot♥.

This reminds me of the time my best friend accidentally finished her pudding when I asked her if I could try some. I had already given her a taste of mine. You know, whilst we're sharing sad stories.

I heard it first at the Vampire Diaries and I loved it. It's one of my favourite songs now, it's so beautiful

Oh, it tears me up..I tried to hold on but it hurts too much..I tried to forgive but it's not enough to make it all okay..:'( :'(

woah it's been 10 years and now i really started to feel the pain and relate when i listen to this song

love this song !

A good song doesn't stop being "awesome" just because the time flies by..

2009 what a year !!

the words in this song are one of the best in any song in the world ;)

Broken hearted soul getting lost in this song.

Remember it was christmas morning turned on the music channel and this was playing

How can I give any more, when I love you a little less than before 💔it tears me up, I tried to hold on but it hurts too much. I tried to forgive but it's not enough to make it all okay. WOW!!

Yes. I'm still listening to this song in 2012.

ugg i havent heard this song in years, now i remember why, it remembers me so many bad things in my past :l

Still listening to this! 😍😍

It's hardest when you're the one who loses feelings, but sadly sometimes no matter how hard you try you just can't love someone anymore than you already have, it's the toughest choice to walk away because you know they deserve better

I love this song so much, amarican idol reminded me of this and now im back to listening to it 2012, amazing song!

Love this song, never gets old. Same feeling.

I 💗 this song it feels my heart good,nice.I love it so much!😭CRY.

2020 and memories

i remember that girl, 9 years ago, and still love her!

big meaning in this song

I missed this song ♥

This song say's it ALL

still listening to this still makes me cry :')

I hate this song because my girlfriend dedicated it to me when I broke up with her. That was over a year ago and this song still brings me to tears every time I hear it because it reminds me of what I gave up and how she doesn't love me anymore.

BEST SONG ON RU-vid!....And reminds me my Old Memories
