James Vincent McMorrow - We Don't Eat

[@alexandrevargas10]

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

[@sherismith8280]

Season2 epi5 really hit hard especially when he talked about his father

[@flame0731]

I don't claim this song as a Delena moment. It began with Rebeka's tears. This is song is more painful emotionally. I moved to the coast, under a mountain Swam in the ocean, slept on my own At dawn I would watch the sun cut ribbons through the bay I'd remember all the things my mother wrote That we don't eat until your father's at the table We don't drink until the devil's turned to dust Never once has any man I've met been able to love So if I were you, I'd have a little trust it's about Mom

[@LaPetiteLulu]

Love from France ❤🇫🇷❤️❤️💜❤️💜❤️💜

[@ada20101993]

When I heard it in Chuck I fell in love with this song! When I heard in Vampire Diaries I was thrilled!!!!!!!!! It suits those series sooo well!!!!!!

[@Tyzen7]

Anyone from Mayans? All I can say is, I seen it coming, that empty look in Steve's eyes, I knew he was going to do it

[@chiapoowhite3076]

So sad.

[@ParadisJon]

Same hear, this song was fitting as fu*k

[@lenyajay1473]

Honestly same. It was kinda sad but was totally inevitable. He wasn't cut out for that kinda life. Love the show though and think that everything just fit.

[@charlenegosse6581]

Very sad......he knew he really didn't belong, love the Mayans!

[@DurotanDreaming]

So sad .. Steve is so awesome but killing this guy destroyed his soul, he wanted to be somebody, but this life wasn't for him, remember him, R.I.P Steve

[@emmawarren6653]

2019? Music like this needs more attention.

[@1lars10]

this song makes me think of life. When I hear it.. I start thinking about my friends and the people that I love. People complain so much and actually we should appreciate all the thinks we have. It just makes me think about what I'm gonna do in the future. and how beautiful life actually is.

[@fungilicious_fern]

Favorite line: I'd rather be working for something than praying for the rain. Absolutely beautiful. I could honestly listen to him and never get sick of it.

[@skytte61]

My grandpa passed away in February and idk why but this song reminds me of him. I miss him so much. I can still feel him patting my shoulder.

[@eddynelsonson5706]

In all my years as a human being on this earth, I have never ever heard of a song like this one that narrates life experiences so eloquently. It’s so deep, like the abyss deep.

[@perrianderson9412]

One day just maybe you'll stumble over my comment, only my hopes may dream. Though I still try, and for that matter here's what I have to say. My names Perri Anderson 12 years of age born and raised an our from the big apple next to many a farms. When attending school the dreadful bus ride is my transportation through the whole of last year and the start off the this one every day I listen to this song on repeat. Since I've been playing soccer on the bus rides to and from games I listen to this song, so I'm telling you James Vincent McMorrow, if you ever decide to listen, that your world stops when you stop and I know right now for a wonderful singer you shouldn't stop or else some may stop along with it, I may stop along with it,

[@lalamolala2088]

Hi Perry please look to Jesus for he loves you more than you can understand.

[@briantobing6803]

People Like Us (2012) brought me to this song. It's a beautiful song. Cheers to Vincent..

the guys who find the songs for TVD just amaze me! there are always amazing songs in every episode i just have to find and then i listen to them non-stop! for example breathe again, echo, skinny love, are we there yet and this song !

[@LiberTBo]

In the film "People Like Us" this song brings tears of joy and redemption to me..whilst everyone is setting around the table getting ready to eat a Thanksgiving Day meal with the whole family present.....

[@MimasGee]

One of the most beautiful melodies I have heard in a long while.

[@joe-johncastles141]

Who else but Steve From the Mayans...he truly kept trying, never feared consequence, in the end his own guilt & sadness took him

[@tlaw192]

Haven't heard this song in ages since it first came out! Lyrics still hit hard , 10 years have flown by!

James Vincent McMorrow = James Morrison's voice in 10 years

[@Pu66les]

My A Cappella group On The Rocks sang this with our sister group Divisi. James himself contacted us to say how cool it was to hear our interpretation of the song. Truly inspiring to have the artist himself compliment a cover! what an incredible musician.

[@susannewilhelm5063]

Pretty sure that we the Irish have the most talented singers in the world... What a privilege to listen to this poetry

[@vampirediariesgrl97]

i love this son and i love how the people on the vampire diaries can pick great music that works so well with the scene and a bunch of people say who cares what brought you here and stuff but we all just try to find ways to talk with other people about why they found this song the big point is that we all like this amazing song

[@LuvMovment]

Yes,I know. We don't eat without him at the table, meaning he doesn't eat 'til he thanks the lord says his prayers, merely a grace

[@kylefarias4355]

I always find myself listening to this late at night. 😌

[@ronjaOo]

I love this song. Can't quite put my finger on why.. It's just nice to listen to. Goes right into the mind and leave a mark.

[@BestSolitude]

i'm not even a christian and my father is still alive. but i don't know why i have too much emotional in the verse "we don't eat....and we don't drink..." maybe because sometimes we don't have injured but we get hurt.

[@eddynelsonson5706]

How many times must I listen to this song to get my fill. Probably infinity times infinity.

[@Batterypoweredpenguin]

@ForeverYoungBabeey I went to secondary school with Ben Howard, he was in his last year when I heard him playin guitar at some charity lunchtime thing, talking to him afterwards convinced me to take up guitar myself. I remember those small school gigs i did with Ben being my first taste of the music that now consumes my life. Music has healed so much in my life, and I owe that in part, to Ben Howard.

[@cimarisa]

I remember I first heard this on Vampire Diaries ☺️☺️ It is a beautiful song that always moves me to tears. Anytime I'm going through a "I feel lost" stage in my life, this song ends up in my playlist. I've never heard this song and not cried for some reason 😂 It definitely reminds me of my Dad who worked night shifts, and my mom would make us wait for him before we ate. Ah I love this song so much. There's so much meaning and it just moves you in a way, you know? 😭❤️

[@kellyfe5461]

🙏❤️ the same for me

[@damotheman4196]

Yup. We always waited for dad to be there before we'd eat.. So much said in this one.

[@rbaylis91]

I'm not religious but I believe that "Your Father" is like God, and that they have to say grace before eating. The reason I believe this is because he follows the father line with a line about the Devil.

[@anabell7184]

lovely song - still one of my favorites after all these years

[@st3wi3D]

Emma DeStefano - To answer your question (based on the lyrics). It's evident that he grew up in a Christian/Catholic household (him being Irish). Consequntly he was taught the Bible along with certain religious principles from an early age. It's been roughly 2000 years since Jesus Christ was crucified. In Jesus' lifetime he had desciples/followers. Peter, James, Andrew & John were desciples who were fishermen, who Jesus' called to follow him while they were mending there nets on the Galilean sea. Jesus asked them to go out and fish again after they had caught nothing all day. Reluctantly they obliged and their faith was rewarded when they cast their nets on the "right" side of the boat (John 21:6) thus the reference in the lyrics. As James Vincent McMorrow grew up he became disillusioned with religion and rejected God probably due to the violence in Ireland which stemmed primarily from religious wars. However He left himself a "Safety-net/a way back" if you will. Namely - "So if in the future I might need myself a savior I'll remember what was written on that wall" Hope this helped.

[@pllsabtvdfan]

Great song. Haunting as it is powerful. Beautiful work. Truely hard hitting and amazing. It reminds me that there's still hope for the music industry. When I turn on the radio, and I hear autotune and unoriginality in lyrics, and I wonder what we've come to. But I listen to this and I realize good music never left us. It's just become a lot harder to find, and that much more special when you do. This is real music. Powerful, simple, beautiful.
