Beautiful words Larry, right back at you.

[@pauleaton3578]

Thank you for your positive words.

[@Smith34567]

Thank you ❤

[@anonymous-hm3vz]

NICE ONE LOVE THIS AV A GOOD ONE

[@Mark-o4y6o]

There are Bands..and then there are James! Fabulous! Enough Said!

[@metafuel]

I fully agree.

[@GlastoGeek7]

Quite possibly the most underrated British band of the 90's..

[@jambammz9908]

Agreed.

[@loftyhoops]

Just the way they liked it.. best band ever in my eyes.. love them

[@danbreeze7812]

Got to agree

[@grahamhoran5389]

Pure British class 👌

[@MonkeyBusinessMan]

Most underrated ever I’d say. Fucking love them. Simply the best.

[@marcusbrown4882]

James, quite simply one of the very best bands in the World

[@monotrious]

Yes Indeed Marcus ! I Agree .

[@blagger42]

Well said, still fresh and not dated

[@jambammz9908]

Hugely underrated band

[@javierdelval481]

Yep

[@kevinmccallum5224]

They were until they decided to become bono 🙄

[@carolhamshaw7711]

Thank you for sharing your emotion. My mother passed when I was 24, she was 50. Now I'm 53 and I see it in your eyes. Mothers are origin.

[@tz125r]

I’ve never turned that light off Mum, it’s bright and it shines in my heart every day, until we meet again ❤

[@jimmyk058]

I lost my mom last September. We were so close. There is truly not a day that passes that I don’t think of her, and many times at that. I have a voicemail of her’s wishing me a happy birthday two months before she passed away. I discovered it a month after she passed, cried my eyes out and haven’t been able to bring myself to listen to it again although I was close on a few occasions. This song means so much to me, it’s just beautiful. I’m seeing James in Pittsburgh for the first time even though I’ve been a massive fan since the 90’s. I truly can’t believe they’re coming to my city and I’m counting the days. It would be great if they played Moving On but no matter what, I’m just thankful that I finally get to experience them live for the first time. Take care everyone and for anyone who has lost a close loved one, big big hugs from me.

[@paulfraser8116]

Death notes on KZbin

[@peterrobinson4369]

I know its about his mam. I lost my dad 19 days ago and needed to hear it to help the grieving process. I hope that makes sense?

[@2110jacko]

god damn, this version is like a punch in the chest.

[@leonlenix80]

Yes sir

[@wanderalmeida9584]

true

[@patrickmckeirnan3056]

One of the best i v seen so matre and so exiting

[@ricardojmestre]

Yes, even more than the album one.

[@GayJayU26]

I have loved this band since I first saw them as support for Bowie in 1990. Have tickets to see them in December. This came out just after my husband died. The video is a killer and has me crying everytime. It’s a necessary catharsis each time I watch it.

[@kristenwilson4843]

Beautifully put.. and i am sorry about your husband

[@scotthowe6324]

❤️

[@thediamonddust]

Head up sweetheart. Keep going.

[@dougiehepburn5128]

[@tracyhartigan1601]

I sadly lost one of my best friends in 1984, never Evan thought to tell her I loved her,today I lost another of my beautiful friends, thankfully I was able to say I love you to her,,, long before I needed her to hear me. Love you both so very much girls xxxx

[@gg41r]

I have long identified with the pain Tim is in in this vid....having suffered the loss of my Mum many moons ago. Today, i am watching this, with tears in my eyes, as my Father is close to "Moving On". I have the most bizarre relationship with my Dad, we sometimes clash (always have, always will), yet i love him and the thought of losing him, despite dealing with his illness for 5 yrs, has suddenly intensified this past few days. He said to me the other day, he just has had enough. To know he just wants to be at peace now, is sooooo difficult to hear, knowing he feels there is nothing left to live for. And for selfish reasons, i want him to stick around as long as possible. Losing my mum seemed so much easier to deal with, as, at the time, nobody knew she was on borrowed time. ...but it came to light after, she knew it herself, and decided not to burden us. Life is mostly a beautiful thing, but it is interupted now and then by the pain of losing loved ones and sometimes, that pain becomes the focus and we temporarily lose sight of the beautiful things (the sort of things which dont come with a price tag attached!!)

[@paulmacka]

I watched this video last week fro the first time after falling in love with this song and realising the history behind it, both my parents have moved on in the last five years and following the family issues following my mothers death was unable to grieve until I watched this and the tear flooded from my face, my thoughts are with you also!

[@SaintEshu]

Understand completely - similar story. Hope you too, have found peace.

[@aassttttoorr]

Beautifully written.

[@drover110]

tell him you love him- just let him know and then everything will be cool- trust me.

[@guyheathcote]

What a heartless response to a heartfelt, beautifully written post by gman. I have no idea how you got onto society, materialism, corporations, debt blah blah blah. Are you Russell Brand?

[@hairyprune]

The people who disliked this song must have no soul. Epic version of an amazing song.

[@wanderalmeida9584]

I agree

[@colincampbell815]

Totally agree , one of the best songs ever written , makes me happy and sad at the same time

[@michaelbrown7805]

Spot on mate👍🏻

[@davidsmith6355]

I like looking for music here but we are all stupid for being on you tube really. Apart from generally being part of the empire, the provider of this channel shouldn't offer a "dislike" button as it offers the opportunity to stupid people to invisibly and unaccountably troll something for no reason. They are stupid and so are we for spectating and tolerating it - we should go elsewhere instead of encouraging this shit. Anyone disagree? - you are stupid anyway.

[@iancathcart74]

God I still come back to this song even after all these years!! Absolutely Stunning Version!

[@lisagallagher1214]

Me too..and cry every time

[@maartenviscom]

And I consider this 'one of their new songs'

[@Shropsglyn]

Raw emotion. Totally feel Tim’s pain after losing my mom to cancer.

[@wanderalmeida9584]

May God confort you 🙏🙏

[@johnhankinson1929]

In the last 6 years I've lost 2 brothers, 2 sisters my niece and my brother in law after the funerals I always played this song and cried my eyes out . These have to be one of the greatest bands to have come out of Manchester Ever , fantastic

[@jasonbarron3047]

so sorry for all of your loss john. sending you all my love and blessings brother, i hope things get better for you and your loved ones. totally agree with you james are in my opinion the best band ever to come out of manchester, along with the smiths and a handful of others. stay blessed my friend and leave a little light on xxxx love jase x x leeds

[@simonjbrand]

James move me more than any band I can think of. They seem to unlock the door of human vulnerability, revealing ourselves to others and the risk this carries.

[@intimerecords8136]

Everyone I showed the official video too has not left one dry eye in the house. Very simple video concept and such a powerful song. VERY underrated band!

[@Kandisz_nora]

Christ on a bike that video haunts me till this day. I was only able to watch it a couple of times because I developed a Pavlovian cry reflex to it.

[@Sheen334]

Love you with all my heart, mum. You'll never be forgotten and will forever be loved. RIP ❤

[@DannyGaspar-pj2gy]

😢 i'm

[@laurenzdalangin3712]

The whole album is a masterpiece. This song is one of the saddest song I've heard, especially this version.

[@Charliesgrl29]

My mom passed away last November. Every time I hear this song I cry with a little girl's heart, even though I'm all grown up. We're never too old to need and miss our moms.

[@marketherington5691]

gwen murphy god bless you and you mum

[@susanapalma1776]

[@derekhinton3424]

[@shehzadiamal5709]

gwen murphy I lost my Oumi November 1st, 09. I have never missed her any less. We never stop needing our mums. Hugs to you. 💜

[@alisonjohnston1894]

gwen murphy well said every day I think if only my mum was here to guide and reassure and love me!!!

[@theycallmeblakey]

My mum had a aneurysm and was in a coma for over 2 years. This song always gives me hope I'll see her agan. And my Nan too ❤

[@j.f.monahan3589]

Damn... this is the first time I've heard this version. I think my heart just broke. This is astonishingly beautiful.

[@gomezuribeivan750]

As if the original song wasn't sad enough (along with the video); this version is heart-breaking. Wonderful song TwT

[@carlspencer7668]

Ivan G fantastic version

[@RayHayes-wp1qw]

My beautiful Mam died last week and this song just captures everything about how I feel. I'm a great James fan, have seen them live loads.....love them. And this song.

[@LilianaRamirez-u5c]

Que buena versión!!!!❤

[@chriscope7292]

My father has been diagnosed with MND (als) recently, the disease is progressing quite rapidly, the video to the released version of this song i can identify with as so much as im sure a lot of people can who have lost or are losing someone. As i watch my father decline the only comfort i have is beautiful songs like this which encourage me to try and make as many happy memories i can with my father in the short time i have left with him..........so thank you James for helping me get through this difficult period in my life

[@bindardundat454]

I don’t listen to this song often but when I do , so do the neighbors .

[@TheFibtastic]

The best they've been in 20 years. Amazing for a band that's been around so long.

[@rmccp]

Simply……stunning!

[@mrandmrskellett]

This is it. This isnt music its poetry, direct from the soul !!

[@DogzBolloxz]

I can't watch this video without welling up , I lost my big brother 2 years ago and he got me into this band many moons ago , he was taken too soon ..love you bro , I hope you knew xxx

[@jasonbarron3047]

beautiful post brother x

[@runaf2007]

Genius. Beautiful.

[@patrickmckeirnan]

[@AaronOwenSmith]

Oh Tim. You cut me deep, very few music makers are writing stuff with this much feeling these days. Thank you so much for this music.

[@scottishbandit5287]

This band was sent by the God's. Sending messages of Beautiful Comfort to so many people, also so that we can all reminisce of all the good childhood memories that we all hold dear to our hearts and cherish now and for our beautiful children,s future and also think of our beautiful journey that awaits us all but with a smile. Thank you so much James, for those amazing drunking nights, in a darkened local nightclub with one of those brilliant lite up dance floors like Saturday Night Fever in 1989, as a teenager memories of sitting on the floor to Sit Down. James you will not believe that being a Scotsman that you brought so many people and stranger's together with that one feel good track in that nightclub for any night that record was played , pure genius I say!.THANK YOU! JAME'S YOU ARE A TALENTED SUPERB BAND THAT I WILL LOVE FOREVER. MY DAUGHTER AGED 13 LOVES YOU TOO WOW YOUR MUSIC WILL NEVER DIE! You are beautiful Band keep these amazing records coming. I love you wow so much talent as one!😘❤

[@marccartledge3597]

This song makes me cry like a girl. You can hear the emotion and pain in Tim’s voice

[@jasonbarron3047]

makes me cry like a man marc xx

[@rmccp]

How has this not garnered a Grammy, Emmy and an Oscar?

[@jeanne819]

I cried with the emotion pouring from his eyes and depth of love he had for his mom as he sung this beautiful song. I also lost mine and his tears at the end were mine too.

[@derekhinton3424]

miss my mum so much

[@wanderalmeida9584]

🙏🙏

[@feow33]

[@Historiaparalagente]

My parents have passed away, with just 4 days between them. This song gets to the heart...

[@geoc1173]

❤️

[@kaydickinson]

Stunning - you can see how much it affects him every time he sings it, feels like sharing in grief, though grief with hope - when this cycle ends, will it start again?

[@ianpatterson2759]

Its bootiful

[@ianpatterson2759]

Alot of passion in them lyrics, every word he hits with luv

[@ladyskellington3296]

I just want to hold him and stop his pain , the emotion breaks me every time x

[@deadnicedave]

If you know what this song is about you can truly appreciate the emotion that went into it, Tim Booth and James at there bittersweet best, a truly beautiful piece of songwriting.

[@jpedrom33]

longer than life... the memories. Tears are "only" the prove!!! long live to all and longer memories. Thank Tim Booth and James... Amazing and so human!

[@patrickmckeirnan3056]

So humble what a tune god bless tim

[@sundrieddelivers]

Came to this after seeing Tim on U.K. breakfast tv. Haven’t heard this song/session for years, and it has me in tears already.

[@carlfrew7102]

Pure, simple heartfelt music. made of stone if this doesn't move you. love it.

[@NoName-gj3xm]

One of the closest things to beauty. Thank you

[@johnjohnson7420]

[@Albion101]

I am still listening, its so touching

[@jayobrien1911]

Formed in 1982 !!! The greatest British Band ever, yet they seem to have slipped through the net, Countless amazing songs & albums....Never played on the Radio or mentioned on the Telly in the U.K. Most underrated band ever.

[@greatwhitesharky3261]

are you sure?

[@bicho5121]

best song in years, jemes are a great band, tim is great, we love you james.

[@theworldsbonkers]

Two years ago I lost my dad to Parkinsons disease to see a proud ex Regimental SGT Major lying in a bed in a care home unable to feed himself or speak was heart breaking as much as we pulled the string sadly the last strand slipped through our fingers. RIP dad x

[@rosscassidy5643]

Never comment on youtube but this is phenomenal and deserves the recognition. Chills everytime I watch it.

[@DavidSmith-ne1zp]

This band affects me emotionally like no other.

[@colincampbell815]

Absolutely adore this song ❤️❤️ makes me cry , makes me happy , makes me sad , brings back memories of my dad 🥲 thank you Tim and thank you James ❤️❤️❤️

[@moseleynick]

Why have I never come across this before? Maybe the most moving song I've ever listened to..

[@stephenwalker7208]

Brother just passed listening to this it's completed

[@steadyed]

there won't be a dry eye in the house when they play this live xx TIM xx

[@rich_319]

I still come back to this song to remember the hurt i felt in 2017, and the love of my mother that will never go away 🌻

[@lobo3678]

I first saw the video for this song in my parents house about 6 years ago, I was on my own in the living room and it moved me to tears thinking about my loved ones mortality. My dad walked in and I cleared my eyes and pretended that I had some grit in them. I couldn't look at my dad though, I kept getting this feeling that he wasn't going to be with me for much longer, I had to leave the room, rather then tell him I loved him very much, I just walked out. Anyway dad died a few months later, I did tell him how much I loved him while he was in hospital but it never feels enough to say it.

[@shauntaylor3666]

Seen them 14 times... Best live band out there......This song live though.... gets crowd going wild. Half sing joyfully and half emotionally with tears falling. I'm in the latter group.... WHAT A SONG. WHAT A BAND. Shanti 🙏

[@amarcadiacastillo]

This interpretation is made of pure and deep emotion. I love James because of their sincerity and the beautiful love they have for life :)

[@tlacaeleltlatuani5101]

Simplemente los mejores!!! ahhhhh james... mis queridos james, los escucho desde hace muchos años, y los he visto todas las veces que han estado acá en México, recuerdo el amigo que me trajo de Inglaterra lo que estaba sonando en ese tiempo y venia esa canción de Born of frustration y vaya...sin palabras. Músicos más honestos y música excelente. James best, thanks for the music make waiting como again to México, all times have been them I have seen, thanks.

[@peetee1231]

Still grips the heart today

[@barrysmall3306]

[@stevencain1121]

I'd just like to say a big big thank you to these guys for giving me over 30 years of pure pleasure listening to everything the produce. I ever a band should be put on a pedestal of being the greatest it should be James every time .

[@mikemurphy7261]

word of advice : if you are listening to this song for the first time YOU MUST watch the official video first. Then come back and watch this to fully appreciate / just my opinion

[@rebecaestrada2169]

Thanks for the recommendation. Beautiful video, but a little sad.

[@kittycatcool8699]

Damn that video struck a chord

[@ianpatterson2759]

Defo, tears

[@lesgeorge9166]

The official one broke my heart tas my Nan passed on at the very time it was out and I remember watching it has he was trying to stop the string

[@florpoizon5295]

Ok... I'll be back soon.

[@inandout61]

So so special, what a performance 🙏🏻

[@stuartwilkins9602]

Pure quality. Seen this band so many times and they are like red wine......

[@catherine711]

buckfast lol

[@deanhenry1229]

The best live band I've ever seen, I proposed to my girlfriend at a james concert about 14 years ago.. Been married 12 years and have two children. She's a star was the song playing when I proposed. They make you feel alive and the feelings you get is fucking amazing.

Please don't get me started Looking backwards to move on. Strong yet open-hearted, Accept leaving when leaving's come. God didn't see it coming, Never said I love you, hope you knew. Now my bags are packed and my sails are tacked And my course is marked by stars, I'm on my way, Soon be moving on my way, Leave a little light on, Leave a little light on Time always unwinding, All these dead lines in my mind. Seeds and dreams we planted Took for granted, didn't prove. Walking down this road When my pulse beats slow, Hope to have you close at hand. When this cycle ends, Will it start again? Will we recognize old friends? I'm on my way, Soon be moving on my way, Leave a little light on, Leave a little light on

[@ActuallyGuliBulli]

+José M Bernardo Thank you !

[@Mr.mister56]

First line of second verse is 'Gone' didn't see it coming. Not God.

[@stevenhibbert5565]

Leave a light on I'm coming home

[@TheLasal]

Sometimes the need to leave a comment is stronger than the lack of words that songs like this leaves in the deepest of the soul

[@wanderalmeida9584]

True

[@fn144]

BEAUTIFUL. I wish people in the USA new more about this group and this incredible song.

[@dariocastroalarcon9630]

Simplemente muy bonito todos los temas de James James un grande De los grandes

Not listened to this version for a while, truly stunning so it is.

[@SaintEshu]

To the Band: All of you have been so inspiring, and uplifting to my life. I was able to personally thank you all a few years ago at KEXP radio (Seattle WA). As alway, I wish you all good health and success.

[@krisrichardson1705]
