Body In A Box - City & Colour

[@ordinaryguy6436]

Thank You for making the passing of my brother easier. The timing of this album was perfect. While I find myself still listening to this song years later, it chokes me up and has me smiling at the same time. My brother and dear friend was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer. I remember a short time before his passing taking a trip with my family and his. That weekend we was filled with laughter and tears. We knew we were saying our goodbyes. He told me what he desired for his wife and kids after he was gone. That weekend we listened to so much of city and colour. The city and colour songs struck a chord so powerful and meaningful at the time. This song played on the radio as the concession rolled down the highway in real time. We miss him dearly but somehow Dallas Green to this day still seems to make it easier to cope. Thank you..thank you. You’ll never know how much impact and peace you brought to a man struggling with facing his mortality. And to everyone going through it with him. Amazing talent!!! Amazing song!! Thank you.

[@jamiebarnes8097]

I played this at my mothers funeral. There was little I could express because I was so grief stricken, and the song could say it for me. Thank you.

[@jarrettpotts7621]

I didn't play this song at my moms funeral but it did still say a lot that I couldn't quite bring myself to say

[@goldie3543]

Jamie Barnes this song reminds me of my mom's dying wishes. and I sing it often and remenisce. life ain't the same without my mama.

[@Muranagaski]

Jamie Barnes God bless

[@ItsJennNotJenny]

This comment made me cry. So beautiful. Sending love and light.

[@superhero-onstandby]

Came to say the same. I’ll be saying goodbye to my mom next week. This song is in part of my eulogy along with ABR - beauty in tragedy. May they all rest easy

[@Merkzage]

Probably the happiest sad song ever, makes me think in good memories of the people I loved that have passed. Can't stop listening to this song, this is real music.

[@shawnsuave5694]

Happy? This song is depressing as they come

[@Dajones9191]

Lost my dad when I was 25. Music was the only thing that allowed me to keep going. I can't listen or jam along to this song without breaking down. People will let you down, and build you up. But your parents are the only ones who love/ want to see you succeed unconditionally. Don't learn this too late in life. Go hug them right now. Im 34 now and not a god damn day goes by that I dont think about him.

[@pheelmacababe2861]

ill see you in my dreams grandfather, i love you

[@Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh1]

Sitting here crying reading the comments relating. I’ve always loved this song but when you start losing more people you love it really hits deeper.

[@livx8886]

bought this album used for $6 yesterday. I'm obsessed

[@jonathandavis6839]

Franny, you were the greatest grandmother while on earth 🌎 and the greatest angel eyes on us now. May your journey through the veil of Maya be a peaceful one and an awakening that carries you to the cradle of eternity. Your laughter rings in my ears and I feel you every day. Thanks for your service to the family and mankind. I love you soooooo much!

[@codyisawesome94]

Lost my grandma in September of 18, lost my dad the following year in May... it was sudden and blind side me like nothing else. Dad was cremated and my mom keeps him now... this song cuts so deep with me

[@reannaborges4242]

I had an ectopic pregnancy this past Wednesday and had to have the baby and my right fallopian tube removed. I went to go do the dishes and thought I'd put some music on and this song played, I never heard it before. I started sobbing, took it as an angel kiss that I was meant to hear this. Broke my heart but gave me hope... thank you for writing such a beautiful song

[@murdamitten9259]

RIP JOE SMITH!!! I only hear you when this song is played. Gonna miss you man.

[@cedraschrock9578]

Reminds me of my grandma. Especially the line "It's like a man's best party only happens when he dies." Makes me wish I would have appreciated her life more while she lived.

[@tamaracampbell3460]

R.I.P. Johnathon Warner. Ik it's been 5 yrs but I still miss you every day. This song was played at his funeral and every time I hear it I think of him and miss him. This song helps me remember the good times not just his loss.

[@haileybailey8674]

I used to listen to this song all the time and sing along, never truly dawned on me he said the name Johnny until I listened to it on the drive to my friend Johnny's funeral :( made the song mean even more to me

[@alexevery1988]

R.I.P MOM your little boys are doing good as men and we miss you and will see you some day

[@cannabiscookies7238]

R.I.P Edmund Francis Griffin Spetember 3rd 1953 - May 24th 2020 I miss you so much Dad

[@xX47ReasonsWhyXx]

[@creaturehandsss]

I wanted to play this at my Dads funeral but my aunt paid for the funeral and wouldn't let me. RIP TIMOTHY WAYNE GOFORTH March 9 1965 - August 4 2014

[@SemperZombie]

I'm sorry you lost your dad. I lost mine last year. You should've played it anyway.

[@mel-pf8vb]

❤ peace to you

[@henrychinaski5938]

Rip Unc ,& RIP gramps . Love y’all . Hope our atoms collide out in the cosmos someday

[@decent.genius]

I played this song at my great grandmothers burial. It makes me tear up every time I hear it.

[@firebugeyes]

My dad was the best father for me and my brother, he was funny, kind (huge heart), and worked hard for us and he loved music, this song woke him up in his dead of sleep (3:00 am) one night and he turned it up to jam 😅 and ever since then he loved it and shared it with us. Now that he's gone this song helps us feel closer to him. Like so many songs he loved. Makes me cry but also happy. Thanks city and colour. We love you Ddra ❤️‍🩹 Christopher Ray Gonzales ❤ 1969-2024.

[@o58034]

Bro, you song always beat me... TY

[@BVSILISKdc]

Rip uncle buddy in 2008 and today i buried my grandpa... I’m bawling typing this but the song is so relevant. I love all of you that feel the same way❤️

[@jordandouglas2635]

Im sorry. I love you. Forgive me. Thank you brother

[@cassidykline1352]

I played this at my brothers funeral. He died in a car accidenr on the way home from a concert at 11:30 at night.. His name was johnny de oliveira

[@jolenesaddleback7422]

cassidy kline Sorry for your loss :(

[@RadBunny2269]

A decade later and i still regret not getting the courage to attend your funeral and say goodbye. Still haven't gained the courage to visit your graveside and finally seek forgiveness. One day.

[@EMA222]

Love needs nothing as it accepts where you are✨🔥❤️‍🩹❤️‍🔥

[@nathanlotz4643]

Unloved by those who poisoned themselves via spiteful behaviour Few songs invoke explosive personal grief. Input your emotional parameters of a situation you are healing from then let your mind's eye clarify a smiley Start point Remember a special day,time or moment A new neural pathway can be built using the same sad song as the emotional medium. If that makes sense... His beautiful tone is breathtaking. For the people that suffered for this. Amen

[@3941602]

Depressing but good. The girl balances it out pure love

[@caffs7777]

Rest in peace Sam, Mary, Catherine. Miss you everyday. x

[@HerSunHisMoon91]

Death is touchy subject for me, I’ve lost two people that I loved with every beat of my heart. Tomorrow is the anniversary of my grandmother’s death. It all happened so fast I wanted to at least let her know that even though we were far away, her presence was omnipresent in my life. With just the videocalls we would have, singing together gospel songs, I can’t believe how time has gone by. I miss you terribly, I wish I had more time with you. Heavenly Father, please have her crown, she is the hero of our family.

[@ItsJennNotJenny]

I saw a funeral procession on the highway today and this song instantly came to my mind and I got emotional so I had to play it

[@DevlinEdora]

The comments on this video are breaking my heart. To all those that have lost somebody dear to them: I'm sorry for your loss. May they rest peacefully. Take care and be strong.

[@Directionationxoxo]

I CANNOT BELIEVE I SEEN THEM IN CONCERT TONIGHT!!

[@luiss5125]

I was there too

[@maselm]

It's one person, you realise that?

[@jolenesaddleback7422]

Directionationxoxo My first concert was very lucky :) I got to sit in a V.I.P and eat cake and after that i got sick XD

[@CHUY-DRZ400s]

great song!

[@christinathornton7425]

one of my favorites

[@loiswalker1523]

I thank you for this one

[@tracybartel107]

beautiful

[@thearchetype4782]

Here after finding out second hand a month later a close friend and neighbor of mine passed on , it feels like a lifetime ago I used to listen to these songs , life is such a long strange journey

[@Maharet777]

Every time I visit my father's grave, I listen to this song on the way to the cemetery.

[@Tsudkyk]

While in the navy, we lost several members of our crew due to various non military related incidence. It almost felt as if our command was cursed. I played this song for my department after losing someone close to us. I don’t sing in front of people ever, but it came out organically because we were in such sorrow. Keeping the song moving forward was the only thing from preventing me from breaking down, I just kept my eyes closed and continued to go through the motions.

[@jennaheisler8287]

my brothers friend used this song in a tribute video to my brother when he passed away. my brother passed away when I was 13. I'm only 14.

[@mattsappier409]

Jenna Heisler sad to read this. They say the good die young. Gotta cherish what ya got.

[@jordandouglas2635]

Rip to your bro. Much love to you.

[@isaacspalding5054]

I'm sitting here crying reading the comments. I'm 13 but it still hits hard. Reading these comments make me think about what would happen when my loved ones die. I feel for all you people who have lost someone. I'm dreading the time when one of my family members die. I wish all of you who have lost someone the best of luck.

[@pissiole5654]

I first heard this when I was about 14 or 15, was actually lucky enough to even see Dallas play it live in my home town in Australia. Ive always thought it was absolutely beautiful but after almost 15 years its taken on a whole new meaning, I find it hard to listen to now without shedding a tear. And I haven't lost anyone close to me, for me it just represents that time in life that everyone tells you to cherish but you never listen. I hope in 15 years you can come back to listen to it once more and maybe it will have found its place in your heart too. All the best to you and yours.

[@PatriciaGarcia-be4zs]

Red Rocks June 28th....I'm so excited!

[@sunlightofspirt]

Easily the best song on this album

[@sarahmariestephens8901]

[@jensenfox8845]

A soul searching for the light

[@soulofjimi]

Only bad thing about this song is it isn’t long enough!

[@LocaJBiggs]

This song came on as my mom and I pulled into the funeral home to say goodbye to my daddy for the last time……❤

[@lloydbradly307]

Dallas Green is so good.

[@bonapsla]

RIP Claudino de Bona ♥️

[@danieldaly3884]

This will be the first song I learn to play on guitar

[@JacobWilliams83]

I thought "The Girl" was good. This may be my favorite C&C song.

[@jolenesaddleback7422]

Jacob Williams That girl meme?

[@lilamontoya5609]

No The girl is a song "i wish i could do better by you because that's what you deserve" He did a mother's edition for a children show "I'll buy her a string of pearls because she is the greatest mama in the world "

[@the_privateer1477]

Idk if I just hit the age where all my close friends start dieing but 4 this year, a total of 12 in the last 5 years is so painful. Hug your friends and loved ones.

[@mattyfulford6351]

R.I.P Cody James Gillespie

[@arborcam]

Seems like he's playing an E harmonica. Song in key of A, so its 12th position harmonica for anyone interested. Was tryng to figure out the chord tones he was getting.

[@lilamontoya5609]

I just noticed the string notes remind me of Grand Optimist

[@jasonbryce5083]

it's about a guy that loved a woman. and never told her. that's the feeling I get.

[@montanadeese3846]

Jason Bryce this song is literally just about dying. He played this at a concert I went to in march and said "this next song is about dying... which we all fuckin do" 😂😊

[@martinmancha2180]

Let me be burned when I die And I don't want my Daughter to be sad . she will be born in 2 weeks .I'm tripping out that she will be born into such an evil world.I want to just say we will all be just fine.
