Dear Robyn I love you for this particular song. It truly was about my life when I a young mother and I had a baby boy and thought I was going to have a good happy family but it wasn't to be. I want to thank you for writing a song that truly is me. Love from Kristina in Western Australia.
Hang on. I could be mistaken here. I could have sworn I was listening to a Cindy Lauper or Madonna song. Reminds me of the uncanny resemblance Muse has to other hits with most of their songs. Anyone else notice that?
I remember seeing this music video for the first time on VH1 when I was spending the night at my late grandma’s. I was like 10 and today I’m 26 and I miss my grandma and being a kid
+happystar888 the black kid represents the darkness she is carrying around after being dumped , as with all the other grey , black ,surroundings , think of it being a bit surreal , quite good i thought !
+happystar888 yeah,i get what your saying ,! have you noticed , the black kid is on her left , in this vid , but on her right in the new version vid ? , same location though ,subliminel message?
oh yeah. just like seeds I planted were so ahead of their time. they actually started growing after I planted them. so ahead of their time! (try to use expressions that you understand the meaning of, idiot)
someone please protect this gem from a greedy music producer that is looking for songs to give to a talent show contestant that will turn it into a dull, soulless piano-only cover!
@@McPancakePopcorn Hæ? She has been the same-ish for like 20+ years, what do you mean? She is the only of the new era artists that took the hint and stopped mass production, took on some real production time, made a few good albums, did not squize the soul out of fame with "made up scandals", was always carefull on the songwriting. She is the same gem she always was. She has had her own life and kept that to herself, she is fine.
Dont think I've heard this song in about 7 years, hearing it for the first time brings back loads of good memories of being a kid, messing around with mates going to school and not having to worry about life.
I have loved this song since 2005 when I first heard it, but back then I never thought I was going to identify myself so much with its lyrics many years later.
i can't believe that this song didn't chart in the U.S. ...the only difference between this song and the pop songs over here is that this song is GOOD!!!
Finally someone who understands me, this is good stuff, definitely she is real... I have same feelings, and her voice and everything is incredibly amazing... I had being waiting for long to find a song who express what Im feeling, never tho I could find it, and is great...
Robyn is amazing...She is so underrated! America is not ready for her, nor can they grasp how talented she is and appreciate it. I saw her at a Svedka vodka event with just a piano and some speakers...she is my top 5 favorite artist! Calforniai loves you Robyn!!!
Robin is way ahead of her time..this was in 07 and you can see the hairstyle being cool now! She deserves to be more famous and successful than the mostly shitty pop stars of today.
This is my cousin, been a couple of years, but finally met her today for lunch and a good catch up it was, she has new material in the pipeline, watch this space :-)
It's a good thing tears never show in the pouring rain As if a good thing ever could make up for all the pain There'll be no last chance to promise to never mess it up again Just the sweet pain of watching your back as you walk As I'm watching you walk away And now you're gone, there's like an echo in my head And I remember every word you said It's a cruel thing you'll never know all the ways I tried It's a hard thing, faking a smile when I feel Like I'm falling apart inside And now you're gone, there's like an echo in my head And I remember every word you said But you never were, and you never will be mine No, you never were, and you never will be mine For the first time, there is no mercy in your eyes And the cold wind is hitting my face and you're gone And you're walking away And now I'm helpless sometimes Wishing's just no good 'Cause you don't see me like I wish you would 'Cause you never were, and you never will be mine No, you never were, and you never will be mine There's a moment to seize every-time that we meet But you always keep passing me by No, you never were, and you never will be mine (I saw you at the station, You had your arm around what's-her-name She had on that scarf I gave you And you got down to tie her laces) 'Cause you never were, and you never will be mine (You looked happy, and that's great) No, you never were, and you never will be mine (I just miss you, that's all) 'Cause you never were, and you never will be mine No, you never were, and you never will be mine There's a moment to seize every-time that we meet But you always keep passing me bye No, you never were, and you never will be mine 'Cause you never were, and you never will be mine (You never were, and you never will) You never were and you never will be mine There's a moment to seize every-time that we meet But you always keep passing me bye But you never were, and you never will be mine
Never mind. Found it! lol That version truly depicts the emotional inner battle of frustation and sorrow one endures when facing the reality of having to accept the person one loves is now with someone else.
TheMainMayn That cheered me up thank u. I tell u something it takes a real man to cry. Most men think its a sign of weakness, no way it's a sign of strength. Most men are scared to show their true emotions. it makes u a Man rather than one of the men.xx
i've seen this video so many times and for some reason when she was hugging that guy and then she was like "i just miss you thats all" it hit me like a ton of bricks and made me want to cry... i guess i'm just in a mood and for the first time have really listened to this song... sorry for the randomness..lol!!
This song popped into my head as I walked back from Parkrun this morning. I also realised I don’t have it in my iTunes playlist which has now been rectified.
Robyn is so cool but she's rly sweet and kind to! In a show in sweden, they asked who she wanted to thank. She answered "My Mum and Dad." And it did sound so cute!! I'm pretty sure many was thinking Awww then. :3
I totally agree with ManofSteel1898!!!! Thank you!!!! I have always loved Annie Lennox and now I see how similar and yet "unique" and "different" they are. Wow. :)
