This song doesn’t receive the credit that it deserves, it’s one hell of a track.

[@PabloPerez-ed9gp]

Real 🙂🤪

[@Aquablue33]

I can honestly say that I believe Duncan Sheik produces music of the highest quality.

[@PabloPerez-ed9gp]

🙂

[@Threemiles236]

I'm so glad I was born early enough in the 80's to remember the entire decade of the 90's. What a great era that was

[@chadrat39]

U bet it was

[@stanley2004]

This tune should have at least 120 million views.

[@Coolcat692]

Definitley the most underrated song writer.

[@delaplanemusic]

Definitely not.

[@bengalitiger427]

I saw him open up for Ben Folds in Detroit. I was able to meet him backstage and asked if he would play this song on his guitar- he did! A genuine and nice fella!

[@reneerobinson3559]

[@carkkkent57]

I was at that show too! I also was at the same backstage event!

[@hucklebuck101010]

I worked at a supermarket in the summer and fall of 1997. They used to play this song over the sound system almost every day. I never knew the title or artist until I looked it up just now. Good song.

[@Music-tk5oq]

It also got a lot of radio airplay at the time but didn't make the hot 100 chart

[@estedetringham7528]

@@Music-tk5oq I never understood why. This was played on AA (Adult Alternative) stations quite a bit. Before I had my own show, I worked on air at an AA station, and would use any excuse to play this. It was usually requested at least once per night on weekends. I'd play it even if it wasn't requested, or on the playlist. I would ALWAYS get calls after playing it, asking me who/what was just on. This is one of my favorite pieces of music of all time.

[@Music-tk5oq]

It was kind of like the followup tune 2 Duncan's mega breakout hit "Barely Breathing" which made him a 1 hit wonder..

[@Music-tk5oq]

Duncan's first breakout hit "Barely Breathing" came out & got radio airplay during winter/spring 1997. This was his follwup hit which got radio airplay summer/fall '97. He was classified as a 1 hit wonder with the above mentioned breakout hit which hit #16 in billboard & this was a non charted single

[@nevanmoses7208]

Same hear, it was a beautiful song that was a good soundtrack for 1997. I looked up his song Barely Breathing and this was also recommended. I used to hear this song in Flagstaff Arizona all the time and it go's well with the beautiful backdrop.

[@kevinlofstrom1799]

This song and Barely Breathing, helped me get through some of the hardest part of my life in 1997. Thank you Duncan.

[@ourjuliet]

Good heavens. The original McDreamy right here. And he still wears the crown ❤️ his wife is a lucky lady. More importantly (sorta), this was my introduction to his mastery of chord structure and melody. I’ve been one of his subjects ever since.

[@ThatSquareChick]

Got to get him to sign my arm at a concert when he was just opening for Ben folds and a piano back in like ‘03 I get all blushy when people think it’s my boyfriend’s name. Except that it is in cursive and drunk people always say “Duncan SHREK??” Uncultured swine lol

Saw him perform at the Hard Rock San Francisco 1997! The 90's was prob the best decade ever!

[@MNsizzle11]

I used to be addicted to this album WAY back in the late 90's. Every night I'd come home, clean, light the yummy smelling candles, lay on the couch and listen to the entire Duncan Sheik album beginning to end. Oh, how my roommate HATED my taste in music! His taste still sucks and I still love Duncan, his music just NEVER gets OLD!

[@davidbrucemusicvideo]

God, I miss THIS version of Duncan. What an amazing time. What an amazing album.

I just purchased tickets to see / hear Duncan perform some of his NEW material with the San Francisco Symphony in April!! ... I had the pleasure to meet Duncan on two occasions - opening for Shawn Colvin in Berkeley, CA, and performing a free concert on Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills - and each time he was most gracious to, and so friendly with, all of his adoring Fans! What a NICE man, and a GREAT talent!! ... Good Karma always follows Good People!!.

[@estedetringham7528]

I wrote as much in another thread. I even used the word, "underrated." He has been nominated for, and won several awards, incl. 2 Tony Awards, a Drama Desk, and a Grammy for "Spring Awakening," and has been nominated for, and won a few others.

Fantastic song and video. I feel wonderfully melancholy at the moment. This song swims in it in a good way.

[@tommybass40]

Sheik's first record was incredible. The second one was great too. After that I lost track of him. I think the pop world eats it's own for breakfast.

[@estedetringham7528]

Yes, they do - eat their own for breakfast, that is. Duncan went on to score Broadway musicals. He is an award winning artist. I miss hearing him on the radio, though. This is one of my all time favorite pieces. I posted earlier that it's hauntingly beautiful.

I shared this video with my 19 year old daughter a few weeks ago - I haven't heard her opinion yet but we both have "Barely Breathing", our song by him in our playlists (YT for me)/ iPod for her.

[@anndavis2920]

I used to have this album on cd & played it every day, learned all the songs & harmonized with him. I miss this stuff. Barely breathing was my favorite. thank you for this. Im so frustrated & angry today. I need something to calm my nerves. Duncan Sheik is doing the job for me. 8-17-20

@MNsizzle11 Can't agree more. I found Duncan was extremely talented and I was glad that I got to be 'introduced' to this song and back album in 1997. Especially this song, my tears burst out when I first played it not because I had had any personal experience about what he sang in the lyrics but the music was so beautiful and romantically haunting. God bless Duncan.

I first heard this song late one night on the radio while driving my truck and it just bit me, so i went out the following weekend and bought an EP with 3 songs on it by this guy, little did i know at the time but those 3 songs would come to represent lots of great memories from the early naughties, whenever i hear this i'm straight back there in my mind. great song....

A musician friend of mine (who is also an incredible archivist and fan of Steven Stills) turned me on to Duncan Sheik and now I can't let the guy go. No flash in the pan gimmickry, outrageous styling and clothes can make music like this. He uses none of that and still rings through to anyone looking hard enough to find the real thing.
