Seeing you cheerful at the start of the video made me think of the meme, "Oh honey, you gotta big storm coming." I also ugly cry every time I see this music video.
I’m so sorry Blake. I can’t believe no one warned you about this. Beautiful song by Lewis And such beauty in his voice. It takes so much time to heal and you are in my prayers. Thank you for this reaction.
Such a beautiful song, so deeply relatable. Feels also like a tribute was paid to Greyfriars Bobby the Scotty in 19th Century who's famous for staying by his owners grave for 10 years. There's a statue of him in Edinburgh.
your immediate "oh no, it's a dog. and an old man" is the most relatable thing you've ever said hahaha. I watched this video when it first came out and hearing the song immediately chokes me up EVERY time now. Still love it though, and still torture myself by listening to it regularly. Lewis Capaldi is truly god's gift to us. I saw him in concert recently and his personality and just raw talent was so incredible to see in person.
Aaaw, Blake, don't be sorry for crying, no, never ... so brave of you to show your emotions publicly. Wholesome and important to all the guys out there. You're a role model! Empathy is so necessary ... big hug ... and: not crying at LC's songs and lyrics ?! ... c'mon ... otherwise you'd be a cold-hearted person ... thx for your vulnerability & for sharing 🧡
Oh Blake, wasn't ready to see you crying, wish I could hug you. This mv attacked my migraine from crying so much and then I made my whole family watch it too so I wasn't the only one sobbing
Whilst the song is about a break up the video is a take on the real life story of Blackfriars Bobby who was a Skye Terrier in Edinburgh back in the 1850s to early 1870s. His owner died & so the dog laid by the grave every day for years but was fed & looked after by the locals. There's a statue in his honour. As a dog owner this video pulled at my heartstrings, add in Lewis' amazing vocals & superb lyrics & its a proper tear jerker.
I had no idea what this song was about, hadn’t heard anything about it. I am sobbing now, as I just had to say goodbye to my 19 year cat yesterday. Can’t believe how bad this one hurt. Thanks for showing some real life emotions..this was hard..
same Blake. It hits me every time i watch it, i’ve never cried more watching a music video 😭😭 it break my heart into a billion pieces, the dog reminded me of mine, he died in 2019 😭
I'm not joking when I tell you I have NEVER in my life sobbed to a music video. This kiiilllled meee. And I don't know if you saw that by any chance but at a recent concert he also had the audacity to play this video on the big screen behind him while singing it..HE WAS LAUGHING AT THE REACTIONS OF THE AUDIENCE while singing it, THE CRUELTY hahaha
There are plenty of really good reactors out there. But the way you share your knowledge and expertise *and* your heart...makes it so much more special. 💕
Blake you are the best..I cry all through it too as I’m a senior with a dog that is my very best friend. You are an animal lover I can see. Bless your heart..Lewis is after our hearts 😊
Oh my goodness you made me cry too, just like I did when I first saw this. I can only say it does get easier the more times you watch it. And it’s a good ending that he’s with his dear master once again ❤
Aw, it is only the 20th time i've watched this with another human with my dogs snoring on the floor with me and there are no less tears and still as beautiful as the very first time! it is the power of Lewis, we know he is struggling right now with the live....but it is what he truly loves to do....the music but performing it live - we hope he can take time for himself and get to a healthier place body and mind. Thank you for this beautiful reaction @BlakeMcLain - could I ask as a fellow animal lover to check out an recently fully Independent Artist called Chinchilla from the UK - her recent track Little Girl Gone is an empowering anthem and she too is a beast live and so creative, a cool mix with hints of Sia/Christina/Rhianna/Beyonce and she is rising! A beautiful human too (very sweet) but taking no ..... I recommend her "FINGERS Live for HungerTV" - if you can add to a list (she doesn't disappoint) - thanks man and have a great day!
this song is such a beautiful but at the same time you can't not cry while listening to the whole album - a real masterpiece (very costly in tissues) but it's worth it 🧡
It's a homage to Grayfriars Bobby. A dog who in Edinburgh, Scotland who sat at his owners grave for 12 years. Big story and history in Scotland. Little dog JUST like this one. Even a statue in Edinburgh of the dog 🏴
This song takes me back to when we losted are dog because a few years later my father inlaw passed away ,he had picture of the dog in his hand next to his heart.
Blake!!! I'd love it if you reacted to Jann!! he is a polish singer who almost made it to Eurovision and he is insane! I'd love to hear what you have to say about his new single "Need a Break" ❤
I held off on watching the video as long as I could (after friends told me what happened in it) but curiosity finally got the better of me. ugly crying doesn't even begin to describe what I did. I am going to send Lewis my therapy bill. Also, try and find one of those mind erasers from MIB. I could have gone the rest of my life with never seeing that little dog in his bed near the end.
I mean, what does it say about me, who already knows what happens in the video and continues to watch reactions to it? It's Stomper 2.0, is what it is. 😅
I know how your feeling I lost my pap, he was 94 to Covid and he had a little dog that wouldn’t leave his side She died a couple months later and we put her ashes on his grave so there together forever, so I cry every time I watch it
I am a stressed cpa who lost my dog buddy a few weeks before when I decided to go over watching this at midnight for the first time. We've reacted the same way 😶🌫
I haven’t been brave enough to watch the music video, so I’ll sit this reaction video out - left the like nevertheless, just for your choice of artist and song to react to 😢❤
