José Gonzales - Heartbeats | Other Voices 

My son had chosen this to be played at his funeral, which we did 8 years ago. Always makes me think of his gentleness, love and kindness to everyone.

Dingle is a very small town in Ireland were this was preformed. My older brother Joel lived there and took his own life there at 27 the age I am now. At 27 he was at his lowest where I at 27 am at my happiest. He moved from England to co Kerry Kerry Ireland in 2003 he moved out there about 2007. My brother lived in a small caravan and killed himself inside there il never understand fully why but this song makes me think of him. To my brother Joel il love you forever xxx

10 years later and I still watch this video and listen to this song frequently. ❤

Music so delicate, you don't even want to bite the candy in your mouth.

“Prawns are great” The last words a man said before singing the best cover in the world

10 million people in Sweden and such wonderful music we have brought to the world. I'm so proud.

I love this.. 14 years ago I was diagnosed with cancer and had to have an mri and I choose this cd to play whilst in the mri room. Played cd twice over. Bitter sweet memories xx must be good luck as still all clear

You know a song is great when both the original AND a very different cover version can be so timeless and wonderful.

Anyone 2024?

Every couple months I look at this video. If I still have that same intense shiver down my spine it means I'm still human. Good.

People arguing about which version is better. Like it even matters. Just enjoy it.

I met Jose through a mutual friend who married one of his band mates in Junip. He is extremely kind and a humble person as well, blessed to know this human🙏🏾

This song translates the love we had: intense, real, honest but with an expiration date...

Heard this song on "Bones" for the first time a few years ago. Possibly the most beautiful, haunting song they used. Such an elegant simplicity.

My wife walked down the isle to this beautiful song. A gentleman performed on his guitar and sang the vocals. I served in the army and in Afghan and was quite manly with my emotions. As soon as he hit the first string for this time I was done. I cried honest for about 30 minutes. Thank you for such an elegant and heart felt song

I'm into heavy rock music but this song stops me in my tracks and makes the hairs on my arms stand up. Beautiful.

One of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard in my entire life.

God damn.... This song always makes me cry. I may be a full grown man, but damn.... it's beautiful and reminds me of a different time.

Everything seems to dissolve away when watching this performance. All the music industry bullshit, the posing and marketing and mediocrity, the pessimism that is so easily nurtured in this noisy, unfair world. It all dissolves away. Just one guy and his guitar, with a perfect, perfect song.

No matter how many years pass i will never forget you

In love with this music for almost two decades. I hope to return here in 10 years because it means I'm still in love with life 🖤

it's so hard to find talent like this amongst noise of pop music

Whenever Jose performs it always seems so sad! someone give that man a hug!! love his music

Lovely version of The Knife's Heartbeats. Beautifully done.

I've been searching for this song for around 6 years. Last time I heard it was so long that all I could remember was the beautiful guitar chords. But here I am, enjoying this amazing song once more.

Jose’s Music is so pure, authentic and touches your soul with every single note and lyrics, so rare to find. This cover shows his passion.

My heart's feels both warm and sad at the same time with this song it's just too beautiful. This is what I think love feels like.

When there is no love anymore, and you play this song and let it forever go on.

His voice quite literally dampens down my receptors and calms my soul LOVE 😍🙏🏻

I remember flipping through the channels back when this first aired and being immediately blown away. So glad I discovered Jose.

This is a true artist. No autotune. No lip syncing. No amazing audio equipment setup. Just a very gifted musician with nowhere to hide singing from his heart and soul with raw talent, just his voice and a guitar.

To watch the sun down and have this song at the back is mind opening. The sun slowly sinks, but its we who are moving away. The heart thumps!

As time passes by, I always find myself coming back to this video. It’s the one thing I can reminisce about, and it is like the one puzzle in my book of memories. And when I put that puzzle piece back, it all just comes together. My world becomes more colorful, and it seems more full of love and joy again.

"It's you, Payton" - One tree hill. Love this song

Here's a hug for those that are here to cry...

The sound quality of this amazing song is so good

i love his version. i swear the more i hear from this guy, the more i like him.

This song saved my life.

This tune has got me through so many times, good and bad. I always come back.

Every song I love transports me to a place and time in my life, this one sends me back to a strange night 9 years ago, where everything mentioned in this song happen, every time I hear this song, I smile and cry.

HIs instrumentals, his voice, the lyrics, the ambient background, that gentle smile and glimmer in his eyes-3:04 spent in total tranquility every time I come in to watch and listen to this. I really look up to him as a songwriter and go to this for inspiration before getting back to work on it.

This song had carried me through so many phases of life and always brings to a place of peaceful observance of the world

his voice is calming and perfection. you know you're talented when you can make an entire room silent and enthralled. I saw him play and you could have heard a pin drop

I catch myself coming back to this performance every now and then... It makes me feel really nostalgic and happy at the same time.

This is one of the best covers ever made in the history of music.

I'm honestly upset that I did not know of José at the time of this visit, I will now await patiently for him to visit Ireland yet again.

Songs like this have a meaning, and a purpose. You can tell he is singing from his heart. Not scripted. Beautiful Jose, wherever you are.

I love how when he speaks you'd never expect this singing voice to come out of him. True artist I love this song.

This gets me every time. I used to play a (much inferior) version on the restaurant circuit I used to work and it always got a round of applause.

Probably one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard

JUST PERFECT, A BEAUTIFUL PERFORMANCE, A SONG FOR All OCCASIONS,

2019! This beautiful song will never get old!

Had the pleasure of watching Jose at the Eden Project quite a few years back with a now deceased disabled friend. This song always reminds me of him and his stubborn grit to enjoy life no matter of the challenges that faced him... something we could all learn from.

was and still is an underrated artist

Rediscovering good songs from 10yrs ago💛

Chris, if you reach this, then hear this You're still teaching ways and touching souls day in and day out. 2024

Dingle is a small coastal in Ireland, my home town. This was performed in a small chapel for the locals. Beautiful song, beautiful place, makes you proud to be human.

Who remembers this from the sony advert more than a decade ago.

Lucky to have seen him live in Melbourne. One of the best nights I've ever had in my life

The very first notes.... goosebumps of the Gods !

I can hear the song a thousand times and not get tired of it. First time I heard Jose Gonzales was in the movie The Secret Life Of Walter Mitty

Magic moment's like these don't come often so glad this was filmed one of them Magic moment's in music history. Truly magical

2019 and I'm still here. Love this song so much ❤️

I clearly remember the person I was when this song came out around 2010. Twelve years later. Where has that version of me gone. A truly Great and Timeless song

Such a legendary song. Imagine this in 30 years time..it will be amazing.

so amazing how some musicians can take your breath away , have you gasping for breath. frozen in a moment....

His guitar technique is brilliant. It sounds simple but it's quite complicated, steady and played with a lot of soul. His voice? Well we all know about his voice:)

Would never of came across this beautiful music only for a Sony tv ad and I’m listening ever since. The bouncy ball’s bouncing down the hill❤

this is such a great example of a cover that actually accomplishes something.. the knife killed it.. he kills it and anna scouten nails it too.. all good in their own right.

I found it after many years, wow❤️

😭 I have no doubt that your son was as beautiful as the song he chose!! Xxx

This is the best quality I have heard yet! WHO can dislike this????

The Knife's original version of this song is entrancing and electric. Mr Gonzales's version is so beautifully soothing. Heartbeats is such a wonderful song and it makes me feel like dancing.. "And you, you knew the hand of a devil And you kept us awake with wolves teeth Sharing different heartbeats in one night"

This is my second favourite. Crosses will be played at my funeral 🎉

Still love this song!

"you are the one I want next to me when all my dreams come true. It's you."

Played an instrumental version of this at my mother's wedding, it will always be a part of me, good memories

14/06/2020, 5am We were laying down in our safe place, this song playing and the sunlight was streaming through the balcony window just enough to enlighten his face but blur anything else in the room. I had forgot what it felt like to be genuinely happy, safe, calm and sane but he showed me the way without even knowing it. It’s in him, it’s in what he does and says, it’s in how he cares for the people he loves, how unfailingly thoughtful and immeasurably kind he is, how he always finds the right thing to say and makes sure you got it right, how he talks in such a meaningful, clever and well-put way. When you read this, and whenever is that, know that everything that you are is everything that I love. You’re precious.

this is lovely. the song, the video, jose gonzalez, the sweet comments from everybody below, the nice replies to the comments. I'm really happy to have this tab open right now. also, it's new years! (well technically 1:25 AM, making it January 2) but still. happy new year, whoever comes across this. you're wonderful. stay gold.

OTH! Song is so bizarrely beautiful, one of the most I've ever heard. Jose is a genius. This is a SPA for the ears.

His voice is so pure😍

This guy is just gorgeous. Amazing.

He seems so sweet and sincere

Perfection

his voice is so smooth...everytime i need a break me listening to him to calm....

omg im in love with this man already what a throwback

This was my first dance at my wedding. Seems like a lifetime ago.

I can't believe I never heard of this amazing artist before a month ago...what a blessing his music is...jeez. chills doesn't even begin to describe.

This is going to be my wedding song

I'm so sorry Courtney. You were everything.

I have been in love with this song since 2008

Sr, Gonzalez, Your Amazing, Gracias, You got the story telling in your blood, like my tio y su guitarra,50 year's ago!!!!

This is not a song This is his soul escaping through his voice box.

One thousand people have disliked this video. What is wrong with people? It's beautiful.

Is almost 2020 and I’m still in love with this song,love This guy his way to play and the way he speak trough this lyrics

whether you're the producer or the listener, we're all connected to the one song that's projecting its waves to whomever's hearing

This version he performs is so ridiculously good. It soothes my cancered mind when I need it most.

First listened to this when I was 17. I’m 33 now and it still hits the same way. Thanks Mr Gonzalez.

The original is maybe my favorite song, he amazingly pulls this off.

one of the greatest covers of all time
