Jaymay - One May Die So Lonely 

It was in 2010 when I discovered this video and it’s still here WHAT A GEM

I’ve been listening to this for 12 years.. I come back to it when I need it and today’s as that day

I remember listening to this the DAY it came out... now it’s 2022... Jesus time flies

Simply the most honest and beautiful song i've heard in so long. "you lost it let's face it, i think we we've lost it, a little bit"

Something about this tune is very infectious, the lyrics are brilliant.

this song is perfect in every way. Most played song in my library years back

I love this song; great lyrics, clever lyrics; humour, sweetness and great phrasing.

I hope this is on her next album, it's definitely one of my favorites.

I love her rambling way ofsinging

I literally wrote this to someone before reading your comment. My sentiments exactly.

she puts so much soul in it...incredible

Jaymay you speak to my soul

This song and video will never get old. Such a classic!

I loved this in 2008 so much!!! I'm back, so glad I found you again

remembering this gem randomly

Found Jaymay on Josh Radnor's movie, "happythankyoumoreplease". so glad I watched that movie

In love with this. Put it to my life and throw it on repeat.

Lyrics: Remind me again just what you were saying When you walked in the room when the music was playing When I was lost too, but in my own thoughts and I could not find you Tell me your story, Im listening this time I can get us some glasses and a bottle of wine We can sit on the carpet, sit on the table or sit on the moon You can reach for my hand You can say what you like Is just what you just cant stand It can be your boy or a little old man, be what you want or even nothing at all Be with me Why not forgive us quit holding your breath and reaching with your right hand like its all that is left With a knock of the door I love all your ankles You fall on my floor You roll your eyes Youre so sick of this Gave me the bracelet I placed on your wrist you lost it and lets face it I think we both lost it a little too bits I know youre living in London Cause you keep on complaining where is the sunshine, it always is raining Its all I am hearing, skies are not clearing Your eyes keep on tearing You're missing New York But do you miss me Do you miss our talks Do you miss our touching and our midnight walks Do you miss the ocean Do you miss the sand Do you miss me at all nah I have to laugh like crazy I really think youre crazy You might as well ask me if the hotties all hazy If you left I still maybe have I ever laid lazy with you on the grass Lets get something straight Cause I really do hate This feeling thats growing You think you not knowing Wherever I may run Even if its dumb I love only you You are the only one So it really doesnt matter If Im sorta having fun If your cool or even second I get a glimpse of the sun Whether singing on the stages or filling up the pages Somethings undone And the song ends here Cause youre really not near We havent said a word in over a year It just gives me hope like music gives you rope to hold you right here And Im sorry for these lines Im sorry for my crimes and Im sorry for the oceans I sails all the times if i ever gave you something it probably was the notion I never gave you nothing but a very hard time

FYI, you can find this song on her new EP, Long Walk to Never. It's on iTunes right now but physical copies will be available in late September, I believe. Cheers!

Criminally underrated. Loved this for some time now.

:( thank you happy more please

love you Jaymay N your songs.. thank you for the songs..

her music is always so much better live, which a rarity in most artists. It is also very pleasant to hear the studio versions as well. YOU ARE LOVED Jaymay. Thank you for making my summer so much better...

The feels

idk how anyone could mess up the lyrics. one of the reasons jaymay is my favorite is because of her perfectly clear enunciation.

Luck got me to this beautiful song on a certain mp3 download site.

LOVE the woaoaoaaaaahh at the end..

I love her, wish i can see her live.

Oh , to be loved this much...Jaymay lets get lost somewhere

@sigmaphidelta8 She is playing January 19, 2012 at Schubas in Chicago ... I would love to know how the show went ... Good Luck with Tickets

Freaking good love it

This is amazing,,,, I would love see Jamay live some day... she is sooooo talented

I absolutely love this song and this performance :]

n this song ends here cause yre really really weird we haven't said a word in over a year it just gives me hope like music is a rope to hold u right here n im sorry for these lines n im sorry for my crimes n im sorry for the oceans i sails all the times if i ever gave u somethin it prolly was the notion i never gave u nothin but a very hard time ;o(

Can't wait for your new releases!

this is my favourite song by ms jay.

I'm long distance relationship with a boy I met at school who moved to another school. This song perfectly describes how I feel and I also feel that music is a rope to hold him right here.

this is the only song that forces me to sing along..... : ) and i'm not the kind of person who sings in private or in public, she is truly amazing

Man I discovered this years ago and absolutely loved it. Then Methyl Ethel put out the single No.28 over a year ago and it’s been gnawing at my soul for that whole time what song the melody in the chorus sounded like. It’s this, I’ve done it, I’ve cracked the code. Haha This comment will mean nothing to anyone but I had to write it down.

a beauty

Love this!!!

This is my favorite rendition

I've fallen in love with her music!

I love this song!!! ^_^

I think this is a song i could sing, this is the mode i can make my voice do sorta. il totally do a cover. i love this!

this right channel

She's beautiful.

there are correct lyrics in one of her myspace blogs :)

wow

This is one of my favorites. Jaymay, if you ever read this, please listen to a song by Paul Simon named "Song about the moon" on his Hearts and Bones album. It is inspiring and I think you would enjoy it. Also, check out an album by Melanie, "Stoneground Words." I think you will enjoy her songs as well. MM

It is available in iTunes now :3

WOW! thats all i have to say...

💙💚💛💜

why 2 mics ???????????????????????????? ;)

Writes me DSL

Puede ser mas hermosa?

lets get somethin straight cause i really do hate this feelin that's growin to think yre not knowin wherever i may run even if it's dumb i love only u u are the only one so it really doesn't matter if im sorta havin fun if for a cruel even second i get a glimpse of the sun whether singin on the stages or fillin up the pages somethins undone

i keep on looking for lyrics to this song and there are like, NO correct ones anywhere

and what are the chords ! i have wanted to know them forever !

does she play in chicago much? if so id like to know.

hahha cool.

first time I heard her on Pandora I could have sworn she was Regina Specktor

do you miss me

... this girl sings like the lyrics actually happened

@molly4815162342 rip it from youtube

One dislike?! GTFOH

u roll yr eyes yre so sick of this "jaymay, the bracelet i placed on yr wrist--you lost it" lets face it, i think we both lost it a little bit "i know yre livin in londumb cause u keep on complainin where is the sunshine it always is rainin thats all i am hearin skies aint clearin yr eyes keep on tearin yre missin NY

but do u miss me do u miss our talks do u miss our touchin n our midnite walks do u miss the ocean do u miss the sand do u miss me at all, miss seerman?" n i have to laugh like crazy i really think yre crazy u might as well ask if a hot day's all hazy is yr left eye still navy have i ever lay lazy with u on the grass

(contd...) East Village to hurl superlatives at me too. So manhattan indie hip it hurts. One word - meh.

@bobbyamin I think somebody is missing the point of anti-folk music here....

4 people don't know good tunes

@viagraburger No, not really. I get that "anti-folk" is supposed to be contrary, however there are a myriad of anti-folk artists, or artists who started in the anti-folk scene, who can, and do, obey the laws of melody, harmony and rhythm, whilst still being "anti" folk - Beck being a prime exemplar. I guess I'm just trying to say that Jaymay is not my cup of tea and I am somewhat bemused by the impassioned vitriol from amyzig.... Anyway, I'm out.

Is it just me? Seriously... What are you all fawning over? Jaymay is an insufferable peddler of tuneless, indulgent rambling. There are innumerable artists who convey far more poignant and more heartfelt insights into the human condition than this lass. Except they do it with a well developed sense of rhythm, melody and dynamics, not to mention a nuanced vocal delivery. I bet if I donned "vintage" clothes and delved into my navel whilst strumming a guitar (rather poorly), I could get the entire
