This song resonates so much in me🥺🥺. Even though i did not face his problems, i kind of feel identified with his isolation and depression issues. And it is good to know that he has remained clean and sober for quite a long time now. And it is sad to know that when he had that almost deadly relapse, he was still taking other drugs, and not thinking about himself. But he found his way out of that, and things seem to be much better for him now, and therefore for his beloved ones, including his friends, who before being band mates, are friends. It takes courage to be open about these struggles, and to so sadly yet so beautifully put some of those feelings in these songs.
Keane is still with us in 2024. Saw the band in Berkeley CA and what a beyond awesome night, packed arena! Tom in great voice, great energy! Love this man and his band and I am 74 years old
If you know about Tom's struggles with depression and drugs, and then being clean for years only to turn back and relapse on them in anticipation of this solo album, you can really appreciate this song.
Entiendo muy bien lo que pasó TOM, es terrible esa lucha. Ésta canción es bella, con mucho sentimiento, y dice todo lo que vivió.me encanta . Lo importante es que pudo salir, y ver que la vida es bella, grande TOM,mucha fuerza interior. Es maravilloso Un ángel.
I can't explain with words the amount of love, respect and admiration that I feel for you, Tom. You have the most beautiful voice I have ever heard in my life.
This is a man that has experienced life! You can tell by everything he sings. I just love everything Tom does... such a lovely and touching tone to his voice.
hay algo en la voz de este hombre que me transporta a un lugar mágico, hacia un lugar tranquilo... Desde Keane hasta ahora como solista... éxitos!!! definitivamente... sigue contagiando de buena vibra a las personas ... Desde Lima- Perú
As someone with PTSD and anxiety, with massive trust issues this song hits me hard, but I love it. I have a hardened heart from what I have been through.
Tom eres un cantante excepcional.....la mejor voz del mundo...te amamos❤ Dios te bendiga y cuide mucho para tenerte por muchisimos años y seguir deleitándonos 😍
Everything that I felt in the darkest days of my life is in this song. Sometimes you just dig so deep just to feel real. I now just fill my heart with so much emotions that it just explodes in tears. Music heals. Thank you for the great music!
oh, tom, the fact that you exist truly makes me happy on the hardest days. thank you for not only being talented, but sharing your talent with us. this song is incredible and you're awesome at everything you do :) brazil misses you. ♡
This is such a beautiful song with a good and deep meaning that speaks to me. I feel like Tom's voice will always help me through sad and hard times, but will still remind that my life is wonderful during good times. So thanks, Tom, for you.
I love how he reminds himself with this song that "IT'S SUCH A BEAUTIFUL WORLD" and he must not take it for granted or leave it behind (to the point of taking drugs or alcohol) because of some kind of sadness. "HOW I WISH THAT I WAS NOT - HURTING EVERYONE I KNOW..." - those people who disliked this video most probably don't know how vulnerable he made himself expressing these words, he is litterally pouring out his soul, displaying his flaws. Also the confession "I DROVE [MY HEART] TO THE POINT OF MADNESS JUST TO FEEL" makes me wanna cry everytime. God bless you Tom, you are loved by God and people!
I thought I was the only one that cries with this song. The last lines of the song ;_; "Oh, I know that my hardened heart is beating still I drove it to the point of madness just to feel something..." ;___;
Wish you all could stop talking about Keane and actually say something usefull about the song. I'm sure Tom's waiting for people's reaction to encourage him to keep up making music. This song is just brilliant, wonderful, is filled with hope. My soul rises everytime I listen to it and for a long time I've been waiting for a song to impact me again. Thank you so much Tom, I really can't wait for the new album. Greetings from Paraguay.
We have the right to talk about anything we want. And if we want to talk about Keane we'll do it. Tom wouldn't have been able to go solo if it weren't for Keane.
WE ENCOURAGE HIM TO MAKE MUSIC WITH KEANE. This is not automatically an offense. I wish him all the best so we can enjoy the best of him and the best of him is with Keane. At least this is what I think. Peace!
His voice is so beautiful and this song is breathtaking, I love the fact that he keeps singing these meaningful, deep songs even on his own, so good. Love Keane so much, but with such great Tom's music, the wait is less painful :)
I love the melody in all the songs by Tom Chaplin. Its a different sound, in fact the violins add a lot , a lot of soul to the songs. When he sings 'Something real, something real...' O my! fetches the heart.....
Tom did need that (brilliant) solo step, we know his great talent , but I'm glad he's come back to be KEANE's graceful voice to sing Tim's fantastic songs now. They 're so lucky to have each other. Tim-Tom the perfect musical match ! LONG LIVE KEANE. Love you guys. Thank you KEANE !
Eres un grande Tom, gracias por tantas hermosas canciones y nunca cambiar. Para mi estas junto a las grandes leyendas de la música y eres mejor que unos. Ojala que un dia todos reconozcan tu gran legado.
I love Tom Chaplin. I think this how a lot of people with mental health issues feel, me among them. There is a lot of guilt associated with having mental illness, including substance use disorders. This song makes a lot of sense given Tom's history with cocaine and depression. There is also the hope of getting better. I think he is doing a lot better now.
I feel for Tom, his demons are hopefully fading . His voice in my opinion , so no shouting at me , made Keane. I feel he deserves to get a lot of credit for his first solo Album, here's to many more . I wish him all that he wishes for himself and his family. Go Tom! You are a Star !
Me fascina.TOM y la honestidad de hablar de su vida, componer esas maravillosas canciones basadas en sus malos momentos.TOM es de una gran fuerza interior.Cada vez me enamora más lo amo.❤
Tom, thanks you for your music, voice and share your talent with us. I can't imagine a world without your music, I enjoy every single song 'Cause sings about my life too. Keep singing!!
He has got to be one of the most charming musicians around, a lovely emotional light voice, such meaningful writing, he doesn't hide the fact his hair is grey, and he makes real beautiful natural videos with landscapes and nature to accompany his wonderful genuine songs, what a great human he is, best of luck Tom.
Oh, I know that my hardened heart still beats I've taken it to the point of madness just to feel Something real Something real Beautiful song! Beautiful voice, Tom Chaplin!!!
Meu ídolo saudades querido Tom (Keane) Que canção linda sem palavras simplesmente apaixonante. Tom vem no Rio de Janeiro - Brasil cantar pros seus fãs. Adoro sua canções. Fique com Deus meu ídolo sucesso em sua nova jornada. Beijos em seu coração!!!
Porque Keane está separado desde 2014. Nos tempos mais próximos nada indica que voltem a tocar juntos. Tom está a solo e já tem 2 albums. Tim e Jesse estão noutros projectos. Richard não se sabe o que anda a fazer.
loved you since the very beginning ,saw your struggles and you fought hard to get clean,now you are there ! absolutely stunning voice and brillant man with a great mind ,all the bestxx
Beautiful video, magical landscape, such a positive message on the lyrics. Tom is so brave to put out on this world his struggles. I admire him so much.
I have no doubt that this solo album will be magical. Just like every other time he sings. Thank you for the beautiful album. Thank you for staying with us. Thank you for creating great music. Words can't describe how meaningful your songs for me and for everyone in this world. And for everyone supporting Tom in his journey, I love you all.
Celebro la valentía y generosidad de Tom al compartir su historia, a través de tan bella música, para brindar perspectiva y ayudar a muchas personas en el mundo..
I'm so glad to see that Tom is on here. Sounding and looking good as usual!! I have been following you and Keane for years and I love you guys. Thank you for the gift of your clean crisp wonderful voice!!!!!!
Hi there Mr. Chaplin. It's been a long time sir. Probably, you couldn't understand how much joy it gives me to hear your singing again. It's kind of a renewal. I never saw you as an angel : what I loved with Keane was the deep nostalgia and sadness imbued. Back then though, I felt your own complexity had yet to bloom. Seems Spring will hit early this year... :). You're beautiful and so is your voice - fragile yet unbelievably strong. You've been a figure of kindness and poetry to me since my childhood May you, from now on, take to the sky and make vivid our dreams Thank you.
