I introduced my father-in-law to David Gray in 2011. My wife and mother and father-in-law saw David Gray at Ryman Auditorium live in August 2014. We had a blast, but my father-in-law really, really loved seeing David Gray live. My father-in-law developed a very aggressive form of dementia in 2023. The last time I saw him when he was conscious was in the hospital. Nurses were coming in his room one after the other. He was very agitated by the nurses checking his temp, changing his iv, taking his blood pressure. By this point he was not able to communicate with us. I started playing David Gray on my phone and he instantly calmed as we listened to the music. Say Hello Wave Good-bye on the set list. About twenty seconds into this song, he turned his head and looked me in the eye. It was a sweet moment. One I will never forget. I was fighting back tears, but it was obvious I was able to lose it. He just looked at me in the eyes. I was telling him everything will be ok. It's like he was saying to me it's going to be ok and it was like he was saying good-bye. My wife wanted to bring him to our home to die. He died on July 17, 2024, surrounded by family with David Gray music playing. Rest in peace Fletcher. You were one of a kind. You will be missed. Thanks for being like a father to me.

To have a loving family is such a blessing, which remains even after they must leave you.

This song reminds me of a woman i spent some time with after the break up of my marriage some 20 odd years ago now. We would give each other some comfort, as she had been through some hard times aswell. We would often play this song, so i learned to play it on the guitar and we would sing it together. I left to come back up north where i am from after 6 months or so. I found out from a friend that she had died about 4 years later. I only spent 6 months with her, but she really helped me in the aftermath of my marriage, and i helped her with what she was going through. I always think of her with this song, and the time we spent together. 🙏

Brilliant album. I know what you mean by playing the whole album

[@awaretechno]

My boss Andrew was playing this around 2006 in his office and I love it since then :)

[@gemes64]

One of my favourite cover songs, ever. His voice; that melody. Possibly perfect - I certainly thought so at the time...older now, but I was right.

[@RobDuffyMusic]

This song and album was huge in Ireland. Dunno why it wasn't more popular everywhere else in the world? Love it.

[@sherrykiesel4785]

Had a friend visit tit 90. here. First time hearing

[@sherrykiesel4785]

What i was going to say. First heard it from a friend visiting Ireland.. Still love it

[@theyregr-r-reat8035]

A friend from Ireland sent me this CD, at the time it wasn't available in the US of A. What an awesome find! I'll always truly love my friend from Ireland. .... It was so cool, but still is! 💜❤️

Turning a Soft Cell cover into a Madame George homage is absolutely brilliant. Beautifully done piece of music.

[@GaryDevoy-o2f]

Still here on Aug 2024,26yrs after it's release, one of the best albums of the 90's, re released in 2000, ❤❤, love it

[@carolynpetzbibbo6890]

love this album. every song is awesome!!!

[@CEO100able]

I agree! This is one of the best audio CDs I ever listened to.I remember listening to a thirty-second preview for a slightly different version of "Please Forgive Me" in MusicMatch Jukebox on my HP Pavilion 710 CTO PC (which was my first HP PC) with Windows XP Home Edition on it back in 2002. I never listened to the full-length version of it until I found it here on KZbin as a music video a decade later in 2012.

[@gavinwatt2208]

It keeps me in mind of my estranged 20yr old daughter. I know its not intention of the song but minds me of chloe. Love u im here always

[@yootoobed]

David you are a true talent and this song speaks to many men. Who thought they had their forever. And discovered. It was not. I have met so many countless male friends who experienced the same. And in their Take Two, have found someone who didn't betray them, who truly loved them. That is a testimony to those who betrayed their true love, who discarded them so selfishly, and many times, their entire family. To all the men of the world who get to meet their actual true love, after such a failure, not of their choosing. All the best to those men. There is hope. There is true love out there.

[@Wriggs74]

Reminds me of a love I lost forever. I'll never get over her bit when you are young you never think of the repercussions.

[@morgan11ize]

you are right

[@crazycatlady1980]

Goose bump song! Love David gray

[@Sesamebee300]

David Gray's music is fairly solid, no frills or spills..

[@patrickwaldron4091]

This album reminds me of the love of my life

[@steviebenton7660]

So many feelings, and for so many people. My heart is with all of you. Love to everyone, but especially those who need it

[@vicmorgan763]

Oh my youth! The nostalgia... Love this album so much

[@MisschicASMR]

The whole White Ladder album brings me back to my teenage years, hearing David Gray on late-night radio

[@gigoer1409]

Saw him play this live, weekend just gone. Magical version, one of the best covers ever.

[@michaelhopkins1965]

I bought it 20yrs ago aswell, 57 now. Seems like yesterday.

[@Davidmoyesisanalien5]

Not heard this for an eternity, and I'd forgotten just how good this is. One of those rare cover versions that actually surpasses the original version, and this blows everyone else's clean away!

[@franksilvas8903]

White Ladder is a David Gray greatest hits album!

[@Davidmoyesisanalien5]

Say hello and wave goodbye is a cover version of a Soft Cell hit!

[@annetteanderson2101]

@@Davidmoyesisanalien5 yes soft cell released it in '81

I don't think it surpasses the original, but I love David Gray and his version.

_it's a cover?!_

We were born before the way 👌🌟💔

[@thediamonddust]

Take a look, in my face, for the last time. I never knew you, you never knew me, say 'hello/goodbye'. Say hello and wave goodbye. I think he's talking about the instance of human bonding, where it is awesome and then it turns sour and and it all seems to happen in one single instance. The man is a genius and I only have my own interpretation of his music - I just hope that everyone else listening enjoys it in whatever way.

[@lolaflores5388]

He ruined his music genius when he got married

[@fatimahabdullah7664]

Lola Flores haha!!

[@enjoy_being]

He didnt write the song it is a cover of Soft Cells original, also performed by Aha. But this is actually my favourite rendition.

[@keithfoley3522]
