this really hits my heart because my entire life i’ve never felt at home and then i get kicked out of the one i supposedly had, but i found someone that definitely makes me feel as if i were. i definitely wouldn’t mind dying by her side
@@aubrenagonzalez2890 wow you just reminded me of this, it’s been so long and i just realized i meant *her* lol. my dumbass lost her a few months ago but i’m glad i came across someone like her
I lost my closest childhood friend in February of 2020. He became a die hard Smiths fan from my moms album collection. In our circle of friends, he was the epicenter and we were his satellites. We all became musicians because of him. He was tenacious so it’s no surprise that his stubbornness was his final demise. Prior to his passing he was recently divorced with a small child. His wife was the top earner in the relationship. He struggled financially and he stopped caring for himself. His diabetes compounded and he took on more health issues. Eventually his health issues resulted in him passing out and falling down some stairs. Turned out he had some hemorrhaging and had 21 staples in his head. I spent many weeks by his side at the hospital. He could barely barely move and couldn’t speak. He had indicated to me at some point through a violent head shake that he was giving up. His family was planning his departure from the hospital but I knew that day wouldn’t come. I never held someone’s hand with such intention. I was there up until the day before he passed. So recently I was asked to perform a cover of this song. My first book of sheet music was given to me by this friend - The Smiths. And as I pulled up this video to refresh my memory of the song, the lyrics hit so hard. He could have sung this song to me in his last weeks of living. Every word has meaning to our final weeks together. I wish I could have taken you from that place for one last drive. Damn do I miss you Jack. Thank you for all the gifts you keep giving me.
that was an amazing story. may he rest peacefully. wow. this song, for me, is all about my closest bestfriend, but I love this story. and 21 staples? wow :( Rest in peace.❤
@@LuxuriousLenay glad this song is also about your closest friend. That’s the power of song/lyrics I suppose. When they can take on so many meanings. Wishing you both a long long friendship.
@@HarryPotter-wc6cw thank you for caring enough to reply. Although I was by his bedside, visiting almost daily, it was tough to look at him in that condition. He had a line of giant staples from one side of his head to the other. His body was totally deteriorating and covered in sores. But the last time I saw him (and I had a feeling it would be), I really wanted to take one good look at him all over. So I reminded myself that he wasn’t this body. He was this spirit who gave me so much light. And that’s how I was able to count all the stitches in his head -21. So after his passing, our circle of friends were so mad at him for how stubborn he was about his health. It was his demise. But I woke up from a nap one day and felt at peace. Jack was the most tenacious person we knew. He could move mountains. It’s what brought us all together. It’s why we all became musicians and a list of many other great things we all experienced together. But a persons greatest strength is also their greatest weakness. The negative side of being tenacious is also being stubborn. And he was absolutely stubborn about his health. So it would be unfair to be angry at him for letting himself go. It was the same force that made us love this guy so damn much.
i met a girl in the internet, i've never met anyone like her before. we were just friends in the beginning, but then we started to get closer, we started to flirt with each other. i've never felt anything for anyone before, i've never had much sympathy, i never really cared about anything. but for some reason, she is the only thing in the world that can make me feel something. she is my favorite feeling, even though i don't feel anything else. i love her. i love every detail of her. and she knows that. she's a broken person, many people did bad things to her, so she doesn't want to get in a relationship at the moment. she doesn't like me back, but i think that's alright. i know that i'm going to be alone for the rest of my life because i'm a sick person, i'm incapable of having a healthy relationship with someone, even as a friend. she doesn't deserve to go through this. it's hard to deal with me. but i just wish with my hole heart that i could give her the love that she deserves. even though i don't think she wants to die with me, dying by her side would be such a heavenly way to die. i hope i can hug her one day. i hope she can see herself like i do one day. lulu, you're extraordinary.
I Exactly know how it feels , Im here 1 year after your message , i hope she likes you by now, I dont know about mine , she is not just a girl to me, she was like my wife, my daughter, mom. And i hope youre with her, if not then i pray that you will. peace out.
[Verse 1] Take me out tonight Where there's music and there's people And they're young and alive Driving in your car I never, never want to go home Because I haven't got one anymore Take me out tonight Because I want to see people And I want to see lights Driving in your car, oh, please don't drop me home Because it's not my home, it's their home And I'm welcome no more [Chorus] And if a double-decker bus crashes into us To die by your side is such a heavenly way to die And if a ten tonne truck kills the both of us To die by your side, well, the pleasure, the privilege is mine [Verse 2] Take me out tonight Take me anywhere I don't care, I don't care, I don't care And in the darkened underpass I thought "Oh God, my chance has come at last" But then a strange fear gripped me and I just couldn't ask Take me out tonight Oh, take me anywhere I don't care, I don't care, I don't care Driving in your car, I never, never want to go home Because I haven't got one La-dee-dum, oh, I haven't got one Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh [Chorus] And if a double-decker bus crashes into us To die by your side is such a heavenly way to die And if a ten tonne truck kills the both of us To die by your side, well, the pleasure, the privilege is mine [Outro] Oh, there is a light and it never goes out There is a light and it never goes out There is a light and it never goes out There is a light and it never goes out There is a light and it never goes out There is a light and it never goes out There is a light and it never goes out There is a light and it never goes out
I was born in 1970 so I grew up in the 80’s. It was an amazing place to grow up in the suburbs of Los Angeles. Every generation has its nostalgia but of course I’m a little partisan to mine. Glad you enjoy that era of music. It was such a mixed bag of artists.
Its pretty sad to me :( i never had a home back in the day and used to try and find validation in relationships and would cry when she used to drop me off at the walmart to sleep on the bench cuz she had to go home. Very very heart wrenching yet wholesome song. Amazing song.
@@valak9663 i was already crying but wow reading this made me cry even harder, i forget how much others struggle with too. I hope youre in a much better situation now
@@vivi-vc8dt if its any consolation i am doing much better today. Went from 16 and homeless to 21 and moving into my own apartment in a week. Its been a journey but i wouldnt change it for the world. Ive learned so much and to appreciate the little things in life. ❤️
Listening to this after the most emotionally taxing week I’ve went through thus far. So many things going on in my life and life in general! Some super great, some super distressing, all just overwhelming! This song is about to help me cry out all my pent up conflicting feelings… I just need to give myself a full day to just breathe!😔 That all being said, Whatever you are going through right now, just know that you are never ever truly alone. I’m proud of you for making it this far, and just as this song says, Never let your light go out!💡💖🌟 I love you all!
Where there's music and there's people And they're young and alive Driving in your car I never, never want to go home Because I haven't got one Anymore Take me out tonight Because I want to see people And I want to see life Driving in your car Oh, please don't drop me home Because it's not my home, it's their home And I'm welcome no more And if a double-decker bus Crashes into us To die by your side Is such a heavenly way to die And if a ten ton truck Kills the both of us To die by your side Well, the pleasure, the privilege is mine Take me out tonight Take me anywhere, I don't care I don't care, I don't care And in the darkened underpass I thought, "Oh God, my chance has come at last" But then a strange fear gripped me And I just couldn't ask Take me out tonight Oh, take me anywhere, I don't care I don't care, I don't care Driving in your car I never, never want to go home Because I haven't got one, la-di-dum Oh, I haven't got one Oh, oh And if a double-decker bus Crashes into us To die by your side Is such a heavenly way to die And if a ten ton truck Kills the both of us To die by your side Well, the pleasure, the privilege is mine Oh, there is a light and it never goes out There is a light and it never goes out There is a light and it never goes out There is a light and it never goes out There is a light and it never goes out There is a light and it never goes out There is a light and it never goes out There is a light and it never goes out
I loved the smiths after watching 500 days of summer. Was going through a horrible break up at the time and the movie and soundtrack got me through it. Thank you Smiths thank you❤
Def.food for the soul....my brother began listening to them in the 80s at a time when l became very ill,the melancholy reality,the music ,simply brilliant!And we both got rid of that looming depression we were in.🖤
Hey Lara I don’t know how to get a message to you so I hope you read this. Where did you find the beautiful image of the neon lovers embrace? It’s so tender
My favorite part for some reason is when he sings “in the darkened underpass I thought oh god my chance has come at last…” I’m not sure why but the way he sings it, it’s relatable. I’ve definitely had that thought before, this song is oddly relatable
Reminds me of this summer where I was on the grind and found these guys out thru my aunt and I was just in love with this song over the whole summer miss those feelings 🥲🫡
Dont worry brother life will take its course and you’ll be alright and will learn to fall in love again and appreciate this song with someone else who’ll be ready for you
mamy tragedies and reasons not to go back in the 1960s. Esp if you're not white. Im not being racist, im just stating facts. Wars, Massacres, Communism, Dictators are still a thing back then. You wouldnt even have time to fall inlove to a girl if you're drafted to the war lol.
this was my best friends favorite song along with i love you so by the walters, she killed herself in april of 2022. this song came on in my playlist on spotify on the 17th of december, which would be her 14th birthday. right after that, i love you so - the walters came on. i feel like its a sign that shes still looking out for me, thank you bailey, i miss you like hell but you were an amazing best friend. you were there for me when my grandma died, and you were there for me when people were making fun of me for being gay. you told them to fuck off, and you never backed down. you fought for me, i just wish you couldve fought a little longer. you couldve fought to be so much more than what you are. i love you so much.
I fell in love and dated a guy who ended up realizing he's aroace and this was our song. Hearing it makes me remember the letters I'd write him just to be cute and I'd end each of them with the main verse. I love him so much still and he's unable to love me unless it's platonic. He kissed me today and it hurt but made me happy at the same time. He's still aroace yet he kissed me? It didn't make sense, and it hurt extremely. I wanted to melt in the moment because I was just so happy and flustered and now I just want to die, it was nothing more than "kissing the homies" in his words. I feel like he's playing wjth me but he's not I suppose, but why do I care so much? It's just middle school. It was never bound to last long.
Hace dos traslaciones afirmé mi amor de forma verbal y prepare las cosas y está canción tambien acorde a la naturaleza, la brisa y el parque. En ese momento asumí que como ya esto le daba un principio tambien iba a existir un final.. también estaba una parte enojado por las cosas que no comprendía y me decía bien con esto igual habrá un final, pero fue lindo danzar con el grass y al lado de asientos para gatos..a mi corazón le costó temblar de amor pero era porque ya sabía lo que yo aún no sabía. Aún así no me arrepiento, disculpa todas mis fallas, gracias por haber compartido tu vida conmigo.

I love this song cause he love it and its been 1 years we broke up but i still stalk him and listen his fav song as well his birthday is coming its on 9 april 🫶 i always love u stay blessed always my jiraya ♥️
This song reminds me of a relapse in a Recovery house. The guy is with a girl and he's gotten loaded. He knows he's already screwed up and he can't go back, so he decided to go all out and party. He wants to ask the girl if he can crash at her place, but he doesn't have the nerve.
This song makes me smile out of no where I am at the gym curling my max and I gave up smiling even tho I try to keep up a straight face so no men think I am smiling at him
He sent me this and I love him so much, but I feel like I'm not good enough for him. I mean, I'm good enough for HIM but I'm not good enough for ME to be with him. He cherishes me and I don't treat him as well as I should. I'm so much more closed off and reluctant to be vulnerable. I know he is willing to listen to me but I've been hurt so many times that I don't know how to get rid of this feeling of defensive anger inside me. I need therapy again but so much in my life is happening, I don't know how to balance it all. But I want to be the best for him. He deserves everything ❤️
Me and my best friend/only friend are both drowning but there is this mutual understanding the both of us have that we are drowning and we can't fix it. We can only drown together. We don't make other friends because they don't understand it, they can't. To understand someones pain and mental exhaustion and illness you must first experience yourself. That is the first thing I learn during my first time in the mental hospital. Most people get along with the people who have experienced similar things. I was friends with this guy Finn in the mental hospital he was trans and so was I we both understood the struggle, I believe we were both bulimic, we both had mommy and daddy issues and so on. It is the feeling of comfort in having someone understand it exactly that forms such a close bond between people. Even if you are drowning together and don't know how to help each other, you can understand it all. To my best friend, Kayden, do not die alone without me. We only have each other in this cruel world.
