Dermot Kennedy // An Evening I Will Not Forget

[@asdfiekpj]

This is one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard

[@Rosalieee]

Agreed, I am stuck here

[@doviled974]

Indeed!

[@brianreynolds237]

can't listen without being in tears. his pain in his voice is something i've not heard in a long time.

[@Nick_Sand_Bager]

IT is :(

[@avasmithey6286]

Yes it is

[@Samaccelerated]

This is the type of song you don’t share with anyone. It’s an experience on its own when listening to it.

[@jamiekingsley502]

Bruh I’m a grown man and at around 2:15 I was tearing up... this is the kinda music you gotta listen by yourself, alone, and allow yourself to feel everything.

[@caden-reynolds]

this comment includes the word "bruh" but i still think it's real astute. hell yeah, brother

[@minniethepony2]

I agre you shoud listn to it youre self and fill every ometon he probly felt when he rought it becous it is pure poety and evry song is about somthing bad that becoms somthithg good because in lost he sings about things be in bad and good because he is lost and dousent know wher to stand

[@jaysons7581]

wait..grown men aren't supposed to cry?

[@MrALAVOL99]

Bruh bruuuh ya

[@srt5musik]

Same bruh. Fucking same.

[@jorelvelasquezmusic9715]

I love how his voice sounds almost like a drunk kind of sad in the beginning and it sounds like he gets more sober and suffers from even more sadness

[@odaeide360]

This comment made me cry. So true

[@annetteemma6585]

Damn that’s deep

[@jaye2491]

This was a poetic comment if I've ever seen one

[@morgancusick4027]

The SOUL he puts into every line. This man is a gem.

[@kingEwhit923]

bro he's an ireland soul so duh

[@jenn3551]

love how is voice progresses. "purple blue orange red" that part and every part actually is sung so amazingly. Hopefully you become big one day, you well deserve it

[@TheSkySub]

He did it, 2 Years later :)

[@dustinj2470]

I love that part. The emotions that he sing with is just amazing, every time

that's what hooked me. this dudes throwing punches left and right and i'm getting hit on each one

[@indiabrown372]

Yes!!

[@DLJoLo]

Still coming back six years later.... The first song I ever heard of Dermot’s. ❤️

[@kingEwhit923]

mine was power over me

[@langolfd]

Same! Found him from So You Think You Can Dance epic routine to this song! My favorite dance and song still ❤

[@leebrown9256]

Me too! Best song ever made…

[@oskarjohansson406]

Sick that this guy isn't a world famous artist yet. He is absolutly amasing. Best music i've heard for a long time

[@davidczarnik]

Oskar Johansson sad thing is the trash artists become famous and people like Dermot get left behind

[@theinevitableshoelace3815]

there are a lot of super talented artists that just dont get enought credit, meanwhile 50000 people pay a fortune to go to a miley cyrus concert

[@irishmacer2563]

He is now

[@mdontquit7181]

A fucking starrrr

[@cas6648]

:')

[@sadlittleplanet]

There's something about his music, this song in particular, that just pulls whatever emotions I've been repressing to the surface, and I just listen and cry.

[@silvereyes8910]

Hayley Jewett me too

[@MzTanniB]

Me too!

[@jivelydavid785]

Same girl Same.

[@dannyboy14370]

Its the reminder in his lyrics that evoke an emotion out of you. You should always find sometime to let yourself be though.

[@britneyvance4667]

It’s been 4 years since your comment....I hope you have been able to see him live. I didn’t even wear makeup to his concert because I knew there wouldn’t be any left on my face afterwards

[@aesthetic._snake8842]

Who is here from 2020 listening to this amazing mans music💕

[@sasha13278]

I am utterly completed addicted to this artist. Don't think someone has touch my heart and soul like this since Jeff Buckley. So much talent

[@britneyvance4667]

I hope you get the chance to see him in concert.

[@MagicalMintSorbet]

you can see passion in people who sing a song with their eyes closed

[@Samaccelerated]

There are no words to express my level of gratitude for this song. A true masterpiece.

[@justinmurphy6274]

Very well said 🙂

[@AnonyMous-pb6nj]

The progression of the song and it's mood makes it very surreal. Thank you for sharing your feelings with us.

[@DLopez1983]

Anony Mous I completely agree about the progression.

[@ShawnNewEarthCreations]

Dermot is a reflection of the passion inside each one of us; brimming with Love and Strength. Thank you to each being who helped align the world to bring this song into existence. Thank you!

[@motherearthwhitebufflowcalf23]

Yes say that

[@ShawnNewEarthCreations]

[@random50991]

this is one the most breath-taking songs I've heard to. Thank you SPOTIFY!!!!

[@sydneychekulayev7730]

Yes. Found this song in some western playlist on spotify years ago. Gushed over dermot day after day and now he is big! This is his best song though, for sure.

[@mr.samuels2u273]

After one of my playlists stopped Spotify played “ Couldn’t Tell” and “Moments Passed” back to back and I’ve been hooked since

[@linnmusic]

The first couple of times I listened to this song, I didn't "get" its magic. I didn't listen. Like with many things in life, things pass by you and you don't notice how beautiful it is because you are not paying attention. But I went back again and again, attentively listening from beginning to end over and over, and the song opened up more and more. I started not just hearing the words and sounds but listening to them, letting it sink deep in. It's a song of life. It's an adventure. It's a story. The progress in this song is so rare, how he starts out so quiet, almost talking. Building up until almost screaming at the top of his lungs. The power in this song is out of this world. Power is not how strong you are, but how you can go from fragile and powerless to regaining strength. This song is like regaining your power. This song is special, it's a treasure. I did a cover of this (female version), it'll never be in Dermot Kennedys league, but I couldn't not play and sing this song myself, I couldn't just let it pass by me. The things we treasure most in life we will keep close.

[@jasonr2246]

Just recently heard this song and fell in love with it instantly. Definitely music for the soul. I am going to see him March of 2020 as well. Wish I could hear your cover!

[@linnmusic]

@@jasonr2246 you're so lucky! Would love to see him live. Go check out my cover on my channel if you'd like 😊

[@joeljewkes2883]

The power is overwhelming

[@Spiced_coffee]

The emotion and build up in the song is so heart achingly beautiful. Even though i've never personally experienced a romantic relationship i can still feel the pain in his voice and the lyrics.

[@frangrant7577]

I guess it's not only a portait of romantic relationships.. also friendships. We mess things up, we're human, but we're also here to talk about them, clear them,get it right

[@gecko0o]

I cannot believe he isn’t mainstream. But selfishly I’m glad he isn’t, haunting, melancholy yet hopeful. Extraordinary.

[@lillybaxter8505]

Absolutely beautiful. The emotions you capture are so raw. didn't think I could ever find something like this

[@Horsehead147]

I love how much passion is in his voice. When he brings on that intensity you can see it in his face. He may be the only guy I've seen with his veins throbbing while playing piano lol. Love you Dermot. You're a treasure

[@sandymuggins]

Need his voice today, he gives me emotion when I can't show any 🙏 something about his voice breaks me open

[@julietirvine-fortescue4369]

[@orlaw.8213]

Same, I've never been moved by an artist so much. He's incredible.

[@domhnallkelly5084]

Absolutely horrible that he isnt breaking records world wide. Definitely belongs on the big stage. This mans voice needs to be heard globally

[@connief5856]

I'm a 55 year old mom. The first time me and my son Matthew heard your voice we were both blown away. I love this song so much. It has to be listened to full blast when you're alone. It brings tears to my eyes. All of your music is amazingly beautiful and touches my soul. We are forever fans. ❤

[@katherineryan2349]

What a lifesaver!!! For Real!!

[@Sashaa94]

”you kinda struggle not to shine” Chills everywhere ❤️

[@Thiggin85]

This song leaves me speechless every time I hear it, and I find myself listening multiple times daily. By far my favorite Male singer!

[@DLopez1983]

He was just on Jimmy Kimmel, and I love his album, but this here, this still gets me like day 1. So weird to have been listening for years remembering how many times I’ve watched this on repeat and not knowing (but at the same time knowing) several years later the world would be his stage. He’s such a treasure. ❤️

[@Petermaguire3684]

this is poetry

[@user-hd6pm3wu6c]

This man's voice is from the Gods I swear!

[@dianeblackett7669]

I think this will always be my favourite song from Dermot ❤

This one and "Without Fear" are my favorites.❤

No Gimmicks, No Ego. ..just beautiful fucking music from the heart

[@lisagiorgi3958]

Holy love of everything....talent, soul and a God's gift....ty

[@seancarroll2023]

And he puts it on his album “without fear” 5 years later

[@williambrown2747]

And its still AMAZING

[@viktoriabinder2776]

This made me realize something very important: Even though he left me broken and partways.. i still love him. It forced me to get myself back together. It was the hardest part of my life so far, but it was so worth it - and this is why I'll always be grateful for him.

[@joeljewkes2883]

He ment every single word of that performance believe

[@muzamilkelam2957]

The best artists are often underrated. Dermot is one of the best alive.

[@andrewella8360]

This... This is art. This is actual, unabashed, undeniable art 🙌🏼

[@katherineryan2349]

Gawd this one is so raw, gosh all the emotions. Incredible.

[@olidazafy1658]

When love was found I kept my hope just like I'd hoped to Then sang to the sea for feelings deep blue And coming down And we've had problems that we've grown through But I bet you dream of what you could do At seventeen, I was alright Was like nothing I could feel inside And wishing you were here tonight is like holding on But I still get to see your face, right? And that's like nothing they can take, right? So there won't be no feeling in the firelight Hoping this'll be right Time to show your worth, child I remember when her heart broke over stubborn shit That's no way to be living kid The angel of death is ruthless And I'm always thinking summertime with the bikes out Pushing our luck, getting wiped out Days with nothing but laughing loud Underneath my coat, won't you tap my shoulder, hold my hand Nights with nothing but dark in there You could be my armor then Island smiles and cardigans The nights that we've been drinking in We're here to help you kill all of this hurt that you've been harboring Confessions should be better planned Alone, that night, I'm surely damned Run away,. I'll understand What's important is this evening I will not forget Purple, blue, orange, red These colors of feeling, give me love, I'll put my heart in it And I think about it all the time Lights went out, you were fine You kinda struggle not to shine I still love you, though I still love you, though I still love you always So hold me when I'm home, keep the evenings long Crack and break and part ways I still love you, though I still love you, though I still love you always So hold me when I'm home, keep the evenings long Let's not crack and break and part ways And I wonder if I could let her down It's for real, it's for real It's for real, it's for real

[@lisaos1705]

Olida Zafy what this song mean? About love? About a old love??

[@iAbrahamFG]

This is the kind of music where you'll be in the zone and just feel the meaning and the emotion of the song. Amazing.

[@goodstuff4544]

I feel he lost his ways after he got commercially big. This raw feeling got lost after 2018, and it feels like he got pushed hard by producers and record companies to become something he's not. I saw a show in 2017 in a small venue when both him and his band just glowed with pure happiness and joy, it was one of the best shows I've ever been to, so pure, real and honest. I then saw him two times more after that, and the spark just got weaker and weaker, and at the last show I attended, I even left before he played the last song as I realized that the Dermot I once liked so much have changed into something else. I do wish him the best, and are forever grateful for the early songs he brought us.

[@romaindebuf9641]

Magnifique harmonie entre la voix et le piano

This song is 7 years old? It’s one of my top played songs in 2022. I can’t believe I missed out on this as it happened. There are so many years of loving this song I didn’t have ❤️❤️

[@majbritthansen8969]

[@abbydurnell8967]

His voice is just dripping with raw pain and passion. I cannot stop listening to this song

[@ashwalkerthisway7094]

This song is so emotional because he’s feeling every word, every note...and you can tell

[@sundaynightdrunk]

Super-talented people freak me out. Imagine if your friend just said "hey, I wrote a song on the piano" and belted this out, this raw and with this much emotion. You'd never look at him the same way again. I'd just leave. Nothing more to say.

Several years ago I heard this randomly playing on my Spotify when I woke mid sleep at 3am. I was hooked. I played it over, I searched for the artist and song on KZbin and stopped here. I should be embarrassed by the amount of times I’ve watched this video, but I have no shame. This is where I met my adoration of that voice. So here I’ll keep coming. 😍

[@jennabatten3178]

What has always stood out the most to me about Dermot’s music is that when he plays, you don’t just hear it - you feel it. It fills up every part of you and suddenly you are there with him, in that memory. Artists like that don’t come around every day. We are lucky to find them once in a generation.

[@franchescaburgos9804]

I cant stop l istening to your music over and over again. Its so beautiful. It really is unique Dermot. I appreciate your music so much. Cant wait for more and more. You should definately come the US !!! I would so watch you live !!!! 💖💖💖💖
