I’m sorry for your loss but what a beautiful name for your daughter. I lost my mom 4 years ago and it’s so hard but we get through it. 😊hope you’re doing well
My son passed away in 2023 on my birthday at the tender age of 18, certain songs can capture certain feelings of a time and moment. This certainly does during those quiet nights afterwards. I'll always love you Kymani, my strength and weakness ❤️
We have no words to console you, but only the Holy Spirit from the Almigthy God can dry your tears, bless and comfort your heart. Be comforted knowing that your beloved son is in heaven, in Heavenly Father's arms. God bless you and your family! 😢😢😢
My boyfriend passed away in 2006. He used to play this every Sunday morning. The first rays of sunlight peaked in while he was preparing the cups of coffee. Thanks, Nora, for letting me reminisce this feeling.
@@yourdutch wish you the best my friend! and im simply going to say nothing last forever. ... not even farewell. not even being separated from the ones we love. send u gud vibes ;)
I waited 'til I saw the sun I don't know why I didn't come I left you by the house of fun I don't know why I didn't come I don't know why I didn't come When I saw the break of day I wished that I could fly away Instead of kneeling in the sand Catching teardrops in my hand My heart is drenched in wine But you'll be on my mind Forever Out across the endless sea I would die in ecstasy But I'll be a bag of bones Driving down the road alone My heart is drenched in wine But you'll be on my mind Forever Something has to make you run I don't know why I didn't come I feel as empty as a drum I don't know why I didn't come I don't know why I didn't come I don't know why I didn't come
My dad was a huge fan of Norah Jones. I heard this song recently and thought of the times he was listening to this as I got in the car after swim practice. Rest in peace dad! edit:// thank you everyone for your kindness! my dad was one of the best guys out there. please, if you are a parent, give your kids great memories! my dad would have wanted that for everyone.
I been up all night thinking of the name of this song finally came to me as I’m laying down I always played this song while I smoke I love this song n her voice
Played this song on the piano for my gorgeous dog. She passed away 4 months ago from cancer and I still play it for her. Rest in peace my sweet girl. ❤️
I do truly feel your pain. I'm so impressed with your talent to play this on the piano. Dogs are the best in the world, and they know we are too! She was lucky you gave her the best life. Will you rescue a dog? If you do, he or she will kiss you every day and give the love back ten fold. So wish I could hear your piano. I will check back here to see if you respond, and again, I feel your hurt about your gorgeous, sweet girl.
@@karenries8960 Thank you for reaching out. My girl was a retired racing greyhound that we rescued. I believe that I will always rescue dogs as they deserve all the love in the world. 🩷
I swear this song should be played in that little corner cafe where a live band is on a slow rainy day not too busy and everyone is just watching and listening as she sings and the band plays.... I can see it so vividly in my head
when my kids were little, They knew how much I loved this song, and one day just as I walked in the door, after work, they stopped me. my daughter was dressed in her Easter dress, with her hair in an updo and my son had a make-shift camera. he pressed the CD, play button, and pointed the 'camera' at her. my little 8-year-old daughter began to sing this song into a brush-a phone beautifully. I can see her little eyes gleam and sparkle as she sang... it was one of the most precious moments of my life!
When my grandma was hospitalized there was this fish tank in the waiting area. I would sit and watch it while waiting in the waiting room. When my grandpa came out crying I knew we’d lost her. On the ride home I was skipping through my recommended on RU-vid and found this song. It’s stuck ever since. Today marks a year since she passed. I worry for my dad and my grandpa and my aunt. But I also wonder how my grandma is doing. I’ve seen her around. I promise you she’s given me signs she’s still watching over. She had what they call a global seizure. And ever since that seizure I’ve seen signs all over. Can’t escape them hardly. Our loved ones are still here with us in our hearts and memories, even if it’s just a stupid break up and you know in your heart it’s a stupid break up but you just can’t seem to get over it. It’s okay. They’ll always be with you in your memories and the deepest part of your heart.
Isn't it weird when you have heard a song before and don't think too much of it? AND then one day you hear it again and somehow you are obsessed... Yup I can't stop listening to this song!
Yeah! I heard it as a kid and was like "oh, nice song." But now as an adult, I couldn't remember how the song went, but remembered how much I loved it! Took me a while to remember, but I'm glad I did
I was in an abusive relationship with a man who would only love me in certain situations. I would listen to this song on the drive home from his house and I would always dream of a better life in this big house with a person who wouldn’t abuse me anymore. He would love me and care for me. And now here I am with a boyfriend who cherishes me more than I could ever deserve. He is that perfect person for me. Edit: Never has this many likes on a comment. Thank you all for the sweet support and wonderful love!!! ❤️❤️❤️
i picture myself drinking coffee on a rainy night in Seattle and listening to this song. But right now, im in the middle of the desert with 108 degrees
This is better than enchanted. It is so picture perfect without any condescending, contrived cheese or devil's deceit. A unicorn is less rare in a world that parasitically binds you to garbage.
Find your own goat, my advice to take or leave, and don't take wooden nickels from vending machine men with vending machine minds that tease you and a heart that costs you.
its the leap year, 2.29, my dad turned 80, I had a rough day but I painted the best smile today for him and seeing him happy, slowed the tears down. Then for some reason this song comes to mind, i start whistling it and here I am. Thinking about my life and appreciating the simple things in life like this song. I love you all, I'll be ok. Signed - you friend.
There was not way that you were in kindergarten at the age of 10 you said that you are 23 and the song was released 13 years ago and 23-13 is 10 so there was no way you were in kindergarten at the age of 10 so please stop lying
This song came to my heart at 3:33 am on July 23, 2024. I hummed it because I didn't remember the lyrics and RU-vid brought it up. Some songs are literally imprinted in our subconscious and this is one of such for me. ❤
I dreamt that I was hanging out with my mom. We went to a beautiful concert, and then I started crying because I knew that when I woke up, I would remember that she's no longer with us.
I found this song when I scored so bad on the sat and got denied by every college. So I decided to join the Marine Corp, love it but away from my family, always tired so after 4 years I can finally sing and be happy about this song. Now I’m in college pursuing civil engineering.
Woohooooo!!!! I'm sure your experience in the corps made a lasting impact on you, and all of the experiences - both good and bad - are with you, with memories to last a lifetime :) Best of luck in your pursuit of that engineering degree!!!! You're gonna be great.
First of All, Thank you so Much for your Service 🥰 I don't say that Lightly.... I'm humbled and have Utmost Respect for the Service Personnel..... By CHANCE, is there even 1 memory of or a thing that you Learned in your Service that is Paramount and Conducive to your life Now? I'm curious, for i struggle with my own traveled roads... Blessings to you and All Prosperity *
@@jjfreeman563 thank you for your support brotha. The most important thing I learned in the military is discipline, I know it’s pretty cliche but it is, in the Marine Corp we drill non stop to perfection and that’s what I’ve been doing especially in engineering. Remember the 5p’s, proper preparation prevents poor performance.
This song evokes so many emotions for many of us for different reasons. If you are reading this---know that you are LOVED and YOU ARE APPRECIATED Stay strong out there
This song takes me back to the darkest days of my addiction. That experience taught me that no one is really there when you need them most. Most people have battles of their own to fight. But I beat my addiction and am in a much better place. Now I can listen to this song and I think of how far I've come.
Good for you and I am sorry no one was there for you, but there are many great people in this world that do so much for others. You can be one yourself. It is very rewarding!
I wish all those who are addicted could find their way out as you did. My 37-year old son didn't find the good way out. He gave up and committed suicide on Aug. 1, 2013. Your way is the best, and I pray you never go back. My son went back several times, then just gave up.
This is my very first memory of a song as a young young child. I remember being in pre-school and begging my mom to always turn on this song when we were in the car. Nothing but good memories when I hear this classic.
Similar story here, this song always makes me tear up, reminds me of childhood, my dad would always play Norah Jones or Eagles, especially when we went on road trips :'( Good times
My fiancé was on TikTok the other day and this song was on her for you page. I haven’t heard it in years, but it instantly made me think of when I was a child on my way to the hospital and made me kinda sad. I had leukemia when I was little back in 2002. I looked up the release date wondering why this song reminded me so much of that time and it was January of 2002. So it was definitely on the radio a lot during that time whether I was paying attention or not. It’s so weird how music will sneak its way into your subconscious like that
I dedicate this song to kurt douglas grosch.he was my soul mate.lost him to liver cancer a year ago.he was 56 yrs old.he was everything to me.he loved this song.
Max Dightman lol I think every mom did I can remember this song so well but never knew the singer nor name haha I’m actually surprised on how many people relate
"Don't Know Why" is a song written and composed by Jesse Harris that originally appeared on his 1999 album, Jesse Harris & the Ferdinandos. A cover of the song was the debut single of American singer Norah Jones from her debut studio album, Come Away with Me (2002)"
I remember being in third grade hearing this on the radio in the car as my dad drove me and my brother to school before he headed off to work. I am 29 now. I still remember it so vividly like it was yesterday looking out the window just staring at the train track that was parallel to the road. It’s funny how music can take you back a certain time. RIP Dad, I miss you a lot.
I'm sorry you lost your dad so young. I was already an adult when this song came out. I cannot believe it's been twenty years. The older you get, the more quickly time seems to fly by.
@@jamesbowman6925 I was 17 the first time I heard this. I can't believe it's been 21 years. I can't believe there's been 21 years of this beautiful, incredible musician. But the things she has made, the love and the joy and the peace she has brought to so many hearts and minds. How does she manage to stay humble and modest? I have no shyness in exclaiming that she's changed my life for the better. [I don't think I'd be here if there was no Norah Jones...sorry, this got dark]
I came because of the Eminem interview, and I honestly couldn’t remember who she was… but I definitely remember hearing this song as a child…and I remember loving it. Still do.
Today is my moms one year death anniversary and this song just reminds me so much of when she would take me to school/the bus stop playing or singing this song. I miss my mom more than I could imagine, it hurts so badly.
I’m now 23, this song is the earliest memory from my childhood. But, I could never remember the lyrics, title or singer. A movie helped me to find this song again. When I hear this song it brings back so much good memories.
My dad would pick me up from elementary school and he would always play this song as we road around town together. Gives me tears every time I hear it.
...Never heard this song until in 2003, on my way to Iraq, this was played numerous times on the plane. I was leaving my wife and little babies behind to head into hostile territory at my Country's call, not knowing if this would be one of the last songs I'd ever hear. But the song was, and still is, beautiful; and it spoke to me then. I made it back to my family a year later hale and whole without damaging anyone else in the process. I'm thankful for all of the above.
@@Doing_it_right_the_first_time, you are most welcome. Likewise, my gratitude goes out to all of those who came before and after me who also gave -- many of whom gave at tremendous personal cost.
She's got like 9 grammys but 1 year I remember her winning 5 on award night. She deserves them all! Her voice is beautiful and soulful. 15 years later and I still love her music!
I lost my dad to cancer back in December 2021. When I was a kid, I remember washing dishes with him and my mom after dinner playing this song on his iPod. Listening to this song brings back all the memories of him, along with countless other jazz songs. I miss you dad
Norah Jones... My father loved this song until he died from a coma... You make my gray days bright... Though I cry every time I hear this... It makes me feel a lot better. Thank you.
+bapaknya calon istri Man, you know very well it's because it reminds him/her of his/her father. Stop playing stupid, you can hurt people. Even though you might not be playing, seeing the "jokes" you make.
It's 2020, Christmas time, chilling on the sofa with my 15 months old baby who's falling asleep as I play with his hair. He loves nothing more than sleeping to this song. A memory to cherish 🥰
Alex Abrams I know what it’s like to lose a Mother. I won’t be one of those people who tells you time will heal it or you’ll get over it. You will never get over it. Time does dull it down a bit but you know what’s really cool? The stuff you shared with her (like this song) will become so precious to you. You’ll listen to it and you’ll smile because it makes you think of her. Things will get better and she’s always there with you-right there in your heart. 💕
My nana just died last year and I remember sitting in her car as a little kid and singing along and moving our hands, some good times I’d do anything to have again.
If there is one thing in life I just want to fall into, it would be a room with full surround sound, the best audio equipment, and this album on continuous repeat. I would stay there forever and likely die of eventual starvation, but man do I want to go out only like that. Norah Jones, for life. [Norah Jones is life]
Life was so different when this song came out. The woods I used to live in wasn't destroyed yet, life was everywhere. Reminds me of summer and cicadas and fireflies. I'm lucky to have these memories
that´s so sad... the destruction of nature. I have been seeing that destruction in Mexico also.... Playa del Carmen was so small, so beautiful, mangrooves, green everywhere... now is another ugly city
ℒα∂ƴ ℚ & ẎѺṲ❣ Ooooh stop...Lol and I do write Poetry from time to time...in fact...I'm feeling very inspired to write something tonight! Hearing your beautiful poetry and soothing voice certainly makes me in the mood to start pouring out my emotions again on paper. =)
THISSSS IS OFF ONE MY VERY FAVORITE ALBUM NORAH JONES ALBUMS I ALWAY HAVE BEEN REPLAYING FOR SO VERY LONG! THANK Y'ALL NORAH JONES Y'ALLS MUSIC CHANGED MY LIFE LONG AGO AND I AM FOREVER GRATEFUL 🙏 🥲! MUCH LOVE TO Y'ALL FROM TEXAS

It must hurt so much when you have to be the one to bury your son before you. I would definitely leave me broken if I lose my niece. She's like a sister to me because I never had a younger sister. We hang out all the time.
I love when you forget about a song or artist ( no disrespect ) then it shows on your recommend feed. Now I'm nostalgic and love it❤ May this song bring everyone good memories and smiles.
I'm definitely not a music industry professional, but i somehow perceive that this immensely gifted artist was substantially under-promoted and under-produced. Norah Jones should've had a front-row seat at the Grammys 10 yrs running+. That voice and song writing talent was grievously undersold and overlooked. I will treasure her gifts to her appreciative public forever
Norah always wanted to keep a low profile she never wanted too much attention. She wrote many of her own songs I dont understand why people say she never wrote any songs. She is a Grammy award winner.
@@rickhocks8339 Also a guitarist and strangely enough, I'm learning this song on piano. Agree with everything you said but Jesse Harris deserves a bit of credit. Almost wish I could go back to thinking she wrote it. It was somehow more impactful when I thought she had. Still love the tune.
There are a lot of beautiful voices in the music universe, yet for me, none touches my very soul more than Norah Jones' sultry voice. If you are feeling angry, just listen to Norah, and the anger disappears.
So freaking true norah jones got me through deep depression, death of my 1st fiance, breaks up, arguments and now dealing with my son when he acts like a spoil brat or when I feel lonely when my son is in school. I can say ive been addicted to norah jones for the past 14 years. All my stress just fades away bc of her music and that sweet voice she got.
