Lost my mom on October 8th 2023. I had always bragged about Volbeat and how awesome they were. Same with Dying Light and other things I was interested in. She was always interested in what I liked talking about. I even showed her this song. Sadly, when we both went to the hospital on the same day (my father took us for different reasons), she never got to come home. Nothing is the same without her, and sometimes I wake up expecting to see her and hope she asks how I am. I miss you mama.
I’m so so sorry, I’ve read so many comments just like this over the years, for some reason your hit me hard, I’m sitting here crying like l knew her, it physically hurts. I’ve never experienced that reading comments before, weird,IDK, but I feel the need to tell you, I Love You and I’m writing your name down and I will pray for you now and every time I read it, I feel like I’m supposed to, and so I will🙏🏻❤️❤️ Remember, we are eternal beings therefore we are never real gone , just a different form. She’s right there with you and always will be❤️ I’ve never said anything like this to a total stranger before, but I feel compelled to so, take it for whatever it means to you❤she loves you so much and she right there with you and she always will be.❤️🕊️❤️ Im sending you all the love I can feel right now, all I can say is it has to be coming from her because I don’t know you and I can feel it❤️
My grandpa past away recently due to his COPD and he was a huge fan of Volbeat. My father (his son), my brother and me played this song at his funeral. We tried so hard not to cry while playing the song, but the line 'Cause the days no more the same without you' had us all in tears. I've never seen my dad so sad, yet so proud. Thank you Volbeat for being an important part of my grandpas life, you are without a doubt my favorite band forever.. ❤️
My father and I often listen to this Song and went on Festivals and concerts with volbeat, enjoying life and rock'nroll together. He' was my hero! He died 4 years ago of cancer and said to me: sweetheart always remember life is good. I truly miss him every single day and now the song has a whole other meaning to me. Hope to see him soon and show him all of the success I've made since then. Love you 🖤
@@xXxHoI2I2oI2xXx ich denke er wäre sehr sauer, wenn ich zu schnell dieses Leben verlasse. Ich erlebe einfach all die Dinge die er nicht mehr erlebt aus tiefstem Herzen und erzähle es ihm wenn es soweit ist mit glänzenden Augen.
2,5 years since my dad suddenly past. Kept the hurt inside until last week. I felt so miserable and sad for too long so decided to let it out. Played this song and immediately the dam broke...hard! Never cried so uncontrollably and long in my 37 years. Wrote my dad a letter the same day to thank him. Tears running down my face again now when typing this and listening to this amazing song that forever will be so special to me. Finally letting go of the pain. Thanks Volbeat.
+Vekemake I'd say your life is pretty miserable with that attitude actually. I'm glad a song can touch people's lives.. that's what music is all about.
+Bob Arends your dad must of been a really nice gentleman ...make him proud...like he is still here...I feel the same for my dad...he is long gone too...God bless you...and all fathers.
My father died 4 days ago. I always listened to Volbeat, but I paid attention to the lyrics and my heart skipped a beat. Thank you, it's not easy but I will go through
You Are Never Alone, my warrior, the sun brings freedom to your life every day. Never fall and stay down. Get up with the help surrounding you, it’s there. I’m here
I never had a dad worth a shit, but this song inspires me to be the dad I always wanted to my children. Not their friend, but a strong, positive male figure to guide them throughout this crazy existence we have on this planet. Thanks Volbeat.
@Reece Liles.....Your comment brought tears to my eyes, I'm now 53, just had a birthday on April 3rd and all I wanted for my birthday, was to have my amazing family back. They're all gone now, brother -1995, Dad -2013 and mom - 2019......I bet you're gonna be, or you are, the best daddy in the world......
@@bearyhot Sorry to hear that about your family! All we can do is look fondly on the memories and be grateful for what we had. Thank you for your kind words, I definitely appreciate the encouragement.
TheSaucie1 It was science class, and we were allowed to listen to music, Volbeat is my favorite band I loved this song even before I lost my father, now it has a greater meaning
My Brother William an Zile passed on Nov 6 at 123 pm.....he was a drummer in so many bands..I will miss him every day...I listen to this band because this is what was playing when I got the news...I rushed to be at his side....Thank you Volbeat youve helped
I know this song has been out for a good while now…and after personally covering “Still Counting,” I decided to spend some time listening and viewing videos of theirs and I’m just blown away. The band is phenomenal, but Michael Poulsen has to be among those we call, the best! I’m blown away by his writing and composing. And this song especially, just brings out amazing emotions. The song has a powerful driving melody as well and the lyrics are unbelievably great! Words do no justice. Thank You Volbeat and may you all and your families be blessed with great health and please continue doing what you’re doing, till you all call it a day.
I know he is singing about his father, but I think of my mom every time I hear this song. . . It was 15 years ago this past Saturday (the 12th), that she passed. I was 12, and almost everything happening in my life at the moment reminds me that she's gone. Enjoy your family, love unconditionally, and never hold back the "I love yous" or the random text messages/phone calls
If your dad is still with you… tell him that you love him and hug him! Edit: Lost my daddy last autumn.. He was my hero and my best friend. I know he's doing fine now, but I miss him so much.
diese Band hat mir bei meiner sehr schweren erkrankung geholfen. Es geht mir wieder besser und deshalb höre ich jeden Tag "volles Rohr" Volbeat. Bin 60 Jahre und ohne Volbeat weiss ich nicht was wäre.
wow! I have listened to this song a 100 times or more. Then two weeks ago my dad was not feeling well and went into the hospital. Stage 4 Mesothimiala lung cancer brings new meanings to this song. Love you dad! Chris your first son.
I lost my mom in 1994 - day I came home from phoenix Arizona - shortly after I turned down a gig - on the way to the gig mind you to present myself as a lead singer guitarist in front of Polygram, Sony, and one other. Some months - well six months later my 1st wife and I moved home and on that very day I walked into the house to meet my father and close friends to tell me my mom had died. The days are not the same without you mom. But VolBeat - this song especially - helps me feel better.
Lost my dad almost four years ago and I just got into this band. This song hit me hard the first time I heard it. Hope to see Volbeat in my city soon. Thank you for this song.
das war das erste Lied was ich von volbeat gehört habe und es hat mich Ewigkeiten verfolgt und ich wusste nicht wie es heißt bzw wie die Band heißt. nach ewigen Gesuche habe ich es gefunden und nun begleiten sie mich schon seit 7 Jahren. er schafft es jedesmal mein Herz zu berühren und ich singe immer aus vollem leibe mit!! ist und bleibt eine der besten Bands!!
anna jaquét mein freund ist gestorben und das war sein Lieblings Lied und zur Ehre habe ich es auf der Beerdigung gespielt also das dann noch black rose und Bohse Onkelz auf gute freunde aber R.I.P mein bester Freund 😣
My dad and I had a pretty fractured relationship the last couple years he was alive. I wasn't the son he wanted me to be and he was just the old man ragging on me. Then he died suddenly when I was only 19. I wish you would have been around longer pop. I think we could have been good friends. If you still have your old man in your life remember this Sunday is Father's Day ❤️🙏
Lost my father 2 years ago on 13.12.12 and there is not even a day without thinking of him. He passed away in front of me (I hat to close his eyes). I will always miss him and I thank God I am who I am cause of him; with good and bad (I am only human). I will also, every day of my life, regret the time wasted not being arround him (life took me away from my parents for years in foreign countries). I wish I could turn the time back and have my father with me. From now I can do only one think in my life: him proud of who I became. So don't waste the precious moments you have with your parents and keep respecting them and show them unconditional love nomatter how this life sucks......RIP Father 13.12.12
Same here scroll down and you will see I posted almost the same thing 4 years ago. I now come back to this song with the good memories. I still feel the loss but treasure the great times together. Love you Dad.
18 years since my father has passed . This song heals my soul and. Brings my dad back to me and he sits next to me after all these years alone as I sing these words at the top of my lungs and the tears fall from my skull. By far the most amazing song ever . Thank you michael your words heal and do more then you will ever know !!
the lyrics: Feel the sadness burning in my heart. You left to early father love. So many things I should have said. But in your mind you knew it well. Holding on to what I got and love. But things still seem so dark and cold. The fire is burning down my happiness. But I will rise. So proud and strong you truly were, I took it with me as a tool. A gift from father to his only son. Watching over me with eagle eyes. You gave me freedom to a life, Where dreams are born and truly became real. See me falling, yeah down and lonely. Are the angels on their way? I'm in the dirt. Hear me screaming, see me bleeding. 'Cause the day's no more the same without you. Promise me my son you always will, Cherish what you love believing in. Never lose your values, stand up for the day. Oh dear father I thank you for the years. I'm writing this song on your desk. Together we can make it through the day. See me falling, yeah down and lonely. Are the angels on their way? I'm in the dirt. Hear me screaming, see me bleeding. 'Cause the day's no more the same without you. See me falling, yeah down and lonely. Are the angels on their way? I'm in the dirt. Hear me screaming, see me bleeding. 'Cause the day's no more the same without you. See me falling, yeah down and lonely. Are the angels on their way, I'm in the dirt. Hear me screaming, see me bleeding. 'Cause the day's no more the same without you.
Feel the sadness burning in my heart You left to early, father love So many things I should have said But in your mind you knew it well Holding on to what I gotta love But things still seems so dark and cold The fire burning down my happiness But I will rise So proud and strong you truly was I took it with me as a tool A gift from father to his only son Watching over me with eagle eyes You gave me freedom to a life Where dreams are born and truly become real See me falling, yeah, down and lonely Are the angels on their way? I'm in the dirt Hear me screaming, see me bleeding 'Cause the days no more the same without you Promise my son you always will Cherish what you love believing in Never lose your values, stand up for the day Oh, dear father, I thank you for the years I'm writing this song on your desk Together we can make it through the day See me falling, yeah, down and lonely Are the angels on their way? I'm in the dirt Hear me screaming, see me bleeding 'Cause the days no more the same without you See me falling, yeah, down and lonely Are the angels on their way? I'm in the dirt Hear me screaming, see me bleeding 'Cause the days no more the same without you See me falling, yeah, down and lonely Are the angels on their way? I'm in the dirt Hear me screaming, see me bleeding 'Cause the days no more the same without you
This song is for my father Last year we see volbeat in vienna and at novarock After one week since the volbeat concert in vienna my dad has a car crash and died ;( I love him so much
This song came out right after my bro Kevin died after a very difficult, painful, multi-years' battle with cancer and I'll never forget pulling into the driveway and bawling my eyes out after hearing this and saying "this one's for you, Old Boy"
My best friend/brother died in 2010. I didn't find this song til 2013. Love it so much because I remember how much I loved him and never told him I did. I still miss you 2023. Never sad when I was with you.
This and "A Warrior's Call" make me think about my father that I lost on 7.5.19 to Parkinson's. Wounded in Korea he went into the Medical Corp and earned the Bronse Star in Plieku for going out under the wire to retrieve the wounded during Tet. Humble, he made me a decent human being. Thanks for the great music Volbeat. He would have loved you guys. He taught me about modern music from the age of five.
Got to see my favorite band Volbeat play in Hershey pa giant center on the 8 and Michael play my favorite song I really love and I also decaded it to my father whom past away 3yesrs ago I love all of. Volbeat music o have all their CDs and including severant of the mind
Five years. Five long years since my dad died of cancer. And my step dad of cancer the year before that. It’s amazing how much that can fuck someone up. Only over the last year have I picked life back up to “normal”. This is one of my favorite songs of all time but one that I can only listen to now and again because it gets me. Every. Single. Time. Thank you Volbeat for all your music but particularly this song.
I think after so many years this is still my favourite song. Every lyric is fitting (except for "only son" because I'm my dad's second son) and every note touches me. I've lost my father more than 10 years ago and it ruined my life 'till a couple years ago, but this song still moves me :)
+PlayingGamezZ Oh I am sorry to hear that, my condolences buddy :( Be sure to hold on to the happy moments you had together and don't forget to live on because I didn't until I was 17 years old
I just found this band thanks to RU-vid auto play and I love them. The lead singer's voice is very powerful and the band members are talented. I would love to see them in concert.
What a bad year this has been. I lost my father in April. One of my very best friends suddenly 3 weeks ago and found out today that another very close friend only has a month to live cause of colon cancer. Sitting here crying and waiting for 2017 it's got to be better than this year. To my father, Ricky and Pat I love you and will miss you.
I lost my dad nearly a month ago..you played this in Dublin on Friday night, thank you..it's a beautiful song..it's so hard to put into words how I feel right now and this song does that ❤️
A couple weeks ago my uncle passed away, I barely knew him and probably said more to him in two days while he was unconscious in the hospital bed than I did in my whole life before that point. My cousin used this song in a video tribute and I listen to this song every day because it just helps me feel so much better
It's been 8 years since my father died on Father's Day of a brain tumor and it haunts me to this day. Every time I listen to this song my eyes well up and it takes all I have to not cry. I read my mom the first 3 lines of the song and she had me stop because she was going to start crying. It's amazing how music, especially this song, is able to bring out emotions that we hide so deep down in our hearts.
My dad left me before i was born and ive only seen him once my grandpa filled in but his memory is starting to slip and hes lost his strength.He was the most strong person ive ever met its hard because everything has changed with him but i spend all the tine i can get because one day he will be gone he taught me how to be a man and this song helps me deal with it.
he was my parent to my mom worked three jobs a week when I was 8 til I was 14 I never had a stable home because my mom moved alot and my grandparents farm is mine he taught me life lessons I could have never learned
One year, 6 months, and one day since my daddy departed from this temporary world into an eternal world... I miss him so much, but I know he's with me and protecting me. I will love you forever and ever, my beautiful guardian angel. 😢😢😢❤❤
my daddy would've loved this band. he died 4 years ago and it still hurts every day. so many things he's missing. but I'll always be thankful for the 25 years I got with him.
Ive yet to find a song by Volbeat that doesn't reach inside of me. It's crazy because, just when you think they can't do any better, they come out with something. I'd give ANYTHING to see these guys Live. Just never have the money...
Josh Walters lol I never said they weren't. I love metallica hendrix pink Floyd everything good lol they are legends in the making is what I was getting at and good music is hard to come by these days I think you missed my point
I lost my stepdad and I remember him showing me this song and every once in a while this song hits me giving me the memories I had with him to bad he is gone 😢
'the fire burning down my happiness, but I will rise' My 2 oldest kids died in a house fire. Not sure about rising, but I've been trying everyday now for 17 years.
So sorry for your pain,, They will rise again one day and you can be with them thru Jesus...I pray you find your way, be blessed and may you find peace thru the holy bible.
I fucking love my dad, I don't tell him as much as I should, but he knows well, hes probably the most important person in my life, if not only second to my mum. And when he goes I just hope he remembers I love him.
***** I am as well - networking, programming, database admin, blah blah - created an internet retail business in the sticks of northern minnesota USA - I guess us geeks and musicians - well the two seem common among artists ;)
Two years ago today my dad died. It was completely unexpected...my mom died 6 weeks later...the pain never leaves me...I've just learned to live with it...Metal is my medicine...thank you Michael Poulsen for reminding me that Im not the only person on this earth who feels this emptiness...thank you VOLBEAT for getting me thru every single day and rocking my fucking world...I love you guys !
I know the pain he's feeling in this song. I lost my dad January 15th 2018 and it still hurts the same as it did then. I was 16. The numbness I felt that day is still present today. Hold your dad's close. You never know when you won't have one.
Thanks. In this day and age when fathers and their importance in our lives are openly mocked, ridiculed and downgraded, it's nice to hear from some dads, to other dads and the children of dads about how important their father was for a change. Quit taking dad's out of our lives and recognize as we mature from childhood, we need them ever much more!
Mein Dad ist jetzt seit über 10 Jahren verstorben, und das Lied gibt mir immer noch halt und ich denke an die schönen Momente mit ihm vielen dank dafür Volbeat
My dad passed away on the 27th of Feb, exactly a month apart from my mum. My parents split up 15 years ago when I was only 12 and I only saw him once since then. But to me that doesn't matter. He was my father and the man who gave me the chance to be in this world. May both of them rest in peace and now finally be together again in heaven. Eternal love to them both and indescribable pain.
I’m still hella young and reading these comments are making be break hella hard man even though my dad isn’t here much anymore maybe once a year it makes me wanna cherish that once a year thing with my dad where we listen to music go on late night drives and go spend time together and this is one of his and my favorite bands hope you guys can find peace all of you
It’s been almost a year or been since I lost my daughter and this song keeps me going and I just hope one day you’ll here me scream for you and just no I’ve been falling since and kept in the dark I miss you Lola flett and I love you so much ❤️
He wrote and dedicated this song to his father that passed away in 2008. This makes me think of my father who passed away on April 13,2014. RIP Dad I love you and, I miss you every day not a day goes by when I don't think of you. I cried so hard the first time I read the lyrics to this song.
21.11.23. At 22:06 i became a father. Thinking about my late father. Wishing he was here. But i know hes watching and his proud. Love you dad. Miss you. I hope to be like you.
I'm a 54 yr old woman and this band would have been HUGE in the 80s when there was head bangin rock! Yet all the band's that we rocked out to (Judas priest, scorpions, rush, Queen, motley cure, kiss, acdc, ozzy Osbourne, Ronnie James too and mettalica) just to name a few! ALL came out with a ballad too. It was the thing to do at the time. Volbeat woulda kicked ass! They do now! Love it!
This song is so important to so many poeple. As well as this band. My grandpa passed away a few years ago and i can barley listen to this song without crying. Again. Thank you so much for giving us this amazing song and many other amazing songs. I love you guys so much
