James - Dear John (Official Video)

[@aaronboggs9719]

I went looking for old stuff of James and find this gem. If Gorillaz and James did a collab, it is something I don't think the world would ever be ready for.

[@conciousenergy79]

CORRECT LYRICS: So long, our lives entwined like a helix Don't know where I begin, where you end How long do we go on trying to Phoenix? I just know, I just know, that this can't grow I wrote this song to tell you I'm leaving Afraid to say these words to your face Must be better than a letter, a text or an email My ride stops here at the end of the line We stopped time when we signed in the year of our Lord, 1999 With a kiss, spitting out, spitting out timelines From the moment we locked eyes at the station our hours got synchronized Two reduced to one life, forever provokes, waits like a landmine I wrote this song to tell you I'm leaving Afraid to say these words to your face Must be better than a letter, a text or an email My ride stops here at the end of the line Every kiss has lost its flavor I'm not proud of my behavior Beached on rock, thought that it was land Lost respect and love departed What was fresh, we took for granted Need desire more than just a friend I wrote this song to say that I'm leaving Afraid to say these words to your face Must be better than a letter, a text or an email My ride stops here at the end of this line

[@aaronboggs9719]

The arrangement of this song is amazing, he lyrics make this song something else. This is awesome.

[@cristianramirez8677]

James...llega a todo el mundo,saludos desde Santiago de Chile...larga vida a James...

[@StreangestdreaM]

Genius! Tim voice is so soothing and the electronic sounds are superb! Go James, never stop!!

[@indiemusiclad]

James after all the years still producing amazing music

[@chrislofkin3066]

I would love to see James live but in my 50s and part disabled now so I guess my chance is gone but many more will have the privilege of seeing them so please enjoy

[@michaelcooke7093]

Don't lose hope,get in touch with the venue they will be able to cater for many disabilities..the venue has to by Law in England.

[@carmencaamano9434]

​@@michaelcooke7093don't beleive that, the laws of human bean has obsolaited! Be a man, man!!!

[@carmencaamano9434]

​@@michaelcooke7093 great! Any where, i'm disgussing

[@michaelcooke7093]

Contact the nearest venue to you, and they will help you.

[@JoanaAlmeida-yl5ze]

Please don't let the disability prevent you from going and seeing them! They have reserved seats/spaces for you and will provide assistance. Check with the venue!

[@elizatamas8840]

Brilliant story, animation, emotions, just perfectly designed puppets, splendid expression of the thoughts. I came across accidentally with the video, and I have been gratified that the makers are mainly Hungarian. Congratulations guys! It 's been excellent!

[@57home]

This band is getting me through my life these days. I hope they know how influential and talented they are.

[@craighowarth6044]

That do z

[@kenny7762]

And now me also when I need it

[@theselector4733]

I get ya. They have that quality. Music which is meaningful and lifts the spirit.

[@deathbunny218]

Everything about this is amazing. The visuals, the music, the lyrics. It baffles me that if I search for "James" this video rarely turns up. Even if I'm listening to a James playlist more often than not I have to search for this directly. And it shows in the low number of views/likes/comments. Such a shame that this masterpiece is so overlooked 😔

[@The.Jelly_Gamer]

I LOVE THIS SONG TO DEATH... Underrated Gem

[@anibalcesarnishizk2205]

Dear John was the way to call the letters sent by the soldiers' girlfriends telling them that their relations didn't go anymore.

[@ginkgobiloba5462]

one of the best songs i've ever heard,so niiice. . .

[@noemitome6306]

Thanks to James. It's because of you that and my generation know what good music is. Just like her, you're a star 😉

[@tzm-iy4co]

wow simplemente magistral, siempre fan de james desde MEXICO, VIVA JAMES¡¡¡

[@mariewardrop7458]

Out of all the songs James have made, I can honestly say there are only 2 or 3 that don't do it for me. Not many Bands can be that good! And I think they are getting better with each album they put out.

[@dentoncrimescene]

This album is like a best of James but with all new songs.

[@dantec.g3301]

This is such awesom... James great band

[@Haztelopanchito]

What a great song! Love the electronic sound ay the end! Greetings from Colombia, I've been listening to you guys since Gold Mother. TKS

[@alexandrebarbosa8857]

[@eddiesimpson209]

Only saw this on Rage in Australia last week and loved it!!!! By the way I'm 68...

[@daknisart]

haha, and i'm 61...

[@pititabas]

When this song goes from a lyric to reality, it took me straight to my own dear John, my own breaking up and sing this song to say that I am leaving

[@Crosshatch1212]

Try getting a dear John when you’re doing 7 yr .then it’ll REALY last n hit hard .

[@juliariley4569]

What a good song love the beginning.

[@antonietapires2934]

...É simplesmente maravilhosa!...a melodia/som; tristeza/alegria; letra fantástica e video alegoricamente bem feito!...É uma banda de eleição; embora ouvisse ... nunca saberia o nome!....Difícil compreender as circunstâncias vivenciais de quem se identifica com tais músicas!...............

[@GIORVgionr]

Hasta la vista Nuestras vidas se entrelazaron como una hélice No sé por dónde empiezo, dónde terminas ¿Cuánto tiempo vamos a tratar de Phoenix Sólo sé, sólo sé. Que esto no puede crecer Escribí esta canción para decirte que me voy Miedo de decir estas palabras a tu cara Debe ser mejor que una carta, un texto o un correo electrónico Mi paseo se detiene aquí al final de la línea Paramos el tiempo Cuando firmamos En el año Del Señor 1999 Con un beso Escupir, escupir líneas de tiempo Desde el momento en que fijamos los ojos en la estación Nuestras horas se sincronizaron Dos reducidos a una vida Siempre provoca Espera como una mina Escribí esta canción para decirte que me voy Miedo de decir estas palabras a tu cara Debe ser mejor que una carta, un texto o un correo electrónico Mi paseo se detiene aquí al final de la línea Cada beso ha perdido su sabor No estoy orgulloso de mi comportamiento Alcanzado sobre la roca, pensó que era tierra Perdido el respeto, el amor se fue Lo que era fresco, nos daba por sentado Necesito deseo, más como solo un amigo Escribí esta canción para decirte que me voy Miedo de decir estas palabras a tu cara Debe ser mejor que una carta, un texto o un correo electrónico Mi paseo se detiene aquí al final de la línea

[@carmencaamano9434]

I think, that`s horrible to her, Anyway you know...the seas it`s full...of dishes

[@conciousenergy79]

TRADUCCIÓN CORRECTA: Hace tanto que nuestras vidas se entrelazaron como una hélice No sé adonde empiezo yo, adonde terminas tú ¿Cuánto tiempo seguiremos tratando de 'resurgir de entre las cenizas'? Sólo sé, sólo sé, que esto no puede crecer Escribí esta canción para decirte que me voy Tengo miedo de decirte estas palabras a la cara Debe ser mejor que una carta, un texto o un correo electrónico Mi paseo se detiene aquí al final de la línea Detuvimos el tiempo cuando firmamos en el año del Señor, 1999 Con un beso, escupiendo, escupiendo cronogramas Desde el momento en que nos miramos a los ojos en la estación Nuestras horas se sincronizaron Dos reducidos a una vida, siempre provoca, espera como una mina Escribí esta canción para decirte que me voy Tengo miedo de decirte estas palabras a la cara Debe ser mejor que una carta, un texto o un correo electrónico Mi paseo se detiene aquí al final de la línea Cada beso ha perdido su sabor No estoy orgulloso de mi comportamiento Encallado sobre roca, pensé que era tierra Perdimos el respeto, el amor se ha marchado Lo que fue fresco, lo tomamos por sentado Necesito deseo, más que solo un amigo Escribí esta canción para decirte que me voy Tengo miedo de decirte estas palabras a la cara Debe ser mejor que una carta, un texto o un correo electrónico Mi paseo se detiene aquí al final de esta línea

Fell in love the James CD - LAID release years ago...A true fan forever ! Come to the USA (North Carolina)

[@dorisibley7571]

Seeing them live is on my bucket list. Another James fan living in NC here. And ditto on the LAID release. My favorite all-time song of theirs is Five-O (not on LAID), followed by Walk Like Me. I could go on and on about their music.

from Russia with love So long, I lie here entwined like a helix Don’t know where I begin, where you end How long do we go on trying to feed it I just know, I just know, that this can’t grow I wrote this song to tell you I’m leaving Afraid to say these words to your face Must be better than a letter a text or an email My ride stops here at the end of the line. We stopped time, when we signed in the year, of our Lord, 1999 With a kiss spitting out, spitting out, time lines From the moment we locked eyes at the station our hours got synchronized Two reduced to one life, forever proposed, wicked like a land mine? I wrote this song to tell you I’m leaving Afraid to say these words to your face Must be better than a letter a text or an email My ride stops here at the end of the line. Every kiss has lost its flavor I’m not proud of my behavior Beached on rock, thought that it was land Lost respect, love departed what was fresh, we took for granted need to rely on more than just a friend I wrote this song to say that I’m leaving Afraid to say these words to your face Must be better than a letter a text or an email My ride stops here at the end of this line.

video has shades of radiohead's there there.....both are brilliant. i especially like dear john because it sounds so fresh and original compared to other works by james

[@escape7857]

"Moving on", "Dear John"... I will probably love the others. I think I found my new fav band from this crappy generation.

[@RandJohnson]

This band isn't from this generation. They formed in 1982 (34 years ago, as of my writing) and released their first album in 1986. This isn't even the best song they've released. check out their classics 'Born of Frustration', 'Sit Down', and 'Laid', the phenomenal tracks 'Just Like Fred Astaire', 'Say Something'', and 'Fine'; then the lost weirdo and quiet classics 'Chunny Pops', 'Hello', 'What Is It Good For?', and 'Vervaceous'. There you go... Ten indispensable tracks! ;)
