Keaton Henson - Prayer

[@rboaalainlovelesshalfpasdi]

schopenhauer said that only art will save us from pain, this is art....

[@amylee3531]

This is so saddening knowing his father passed in December. Ive listened to it 3 times just now. I'm glad Keaton has lots of video footage with him and his father. So sweet. Thank you for sharing with us all heart

[@evelynadaliaperezsoriano4070]

I was thinking the same. :')

[@WRamos1775]

I think that's how everyone who's listened feels

[@Prometheus-115]

I wish I had video footage of my father with me. Still photos seem like moments lost in time, like tears in the rain.

[@lovingsister3112]

Bitter-sweet

[@rubaka9612]

This hurts so much. The absence of people, the empty places, the sun shining on empty silent air. Putting all your faith in a prayer, and not knowing what will come next. The loneliness of always being inside your head, trying to find something that will never exist. It just hurts.

[@credencialesinseguras32]

I hope you are doing okay and I am sure in the future you will find people that will stay and will make you happy.

[@rubaka9612]

@@credencialesinseguras32 this made me smile, thank you :)

[@ridethatslapthat]

Are you living the same life as I am too? Lol. I suffer from anxiety and depression and the start of last week my best friend had to cut ties with me because he wanted me as a partner and I wanted him as the friend he's always been, I'm cut up about it but I'm not at the same time because I'm used to people walking away because they don't know how to handle me when I get in depressive states, but he always did.

[@chelseee8035]

I hope you ok now sending you lots of love and prayers my friend ❤

[@Iaminterestedinthis]

Beautiful 😢

[@steph895]

The video is so simple yet effective. The empty chair & flashes of times gone by. The ending with his Dad's voice broke me.

[@gntpapi]

Of course it would be Keaton that saves 2020. October can’t come soon enough.

[@bemotivated8443]

Don’t forget that the oh hellos are back

[@rachelbhall]

It’s impossible to not feel what you feel, cried over the beauty of this song! For someone who feels alone, you connect with my heart so effortlessly. I think that’s how everyone who hears you feels.

[@eunoia11-11]

You've said it all!

[@27bbliverpool]

"Keaton, wave to daddy" 😢

[@ultimateruffles5761]

it's just too heartbreaking

[@lettucerules]

condolences to this pure soul... :'(

[@anthonyarnold5855]

Wrecked 😭😭😭

[@ThepPixel]

I cry everytime

[@soslowonthesplit]

I’m replaying those last few seconds over and over...

[@baufreitas]

My feelings while listening to Keaton' songs are not sadness or loneliness. It's completely the opposite. It's like a two hand holding my heart and keeping it warm. Thanks for everything, KH. ❤️

[@AngelusSoren]

I wish I could feel the same

[@eunoia11-11]

That's exactly what I feel! His songs heal!

[@Thatwasthesummerofsv]

❤❤

[@pothly]

i come back to this song every time i feel like crying and it hasn’t failed me yet. times have been rough lately and i have never been lower than where i am now. it sucks buts that why i just need to cry and let it all out

[@Turkeywaffleboat]

This describes so perfectly what it’s like to lose someone bit by bit. To grieve the loss of someone long before they go. To watch someone who once loved you just as you love them now, becoming completely indifferent to you.

[@Iaminterestedinthis]

Perfectly said 😢

[@felixgelukonstantinescu4751]

Maybe pain is too great

[@devilsinthedeets]

Didn’t know I needed a good cry today but apparently I did

[@karenmorales2932]

This new album is going to break my heart and glue it back together. It sounds as real as always

[@wanderlust9865]

(LYRICS) Hallelujah I'm saving you up All for the day you leave I held you in While you shed your skin And I read myself to sleep I know it's ending but I'm on the mend oh Unbalanced triumphant and trying again Speak up Speak up I'm losing you I'm losing you We made a deal Oh god don't make me feel I got addicted to us Darling you've been My greatest defeat So hate me to death if you must Earth weary twin Baby don't let me in I'm afraid I'm ablaze with the people I've been Speak up Speak up I'm losing you I'm losing you I'm losing you I'm losing you

[@BeTheVillain]

You're my new god

[@valerie4957]

thank you so much!

[@TheConservativeCanadian]

[@DonnyJ]

I love how Keaton left all those little imperfections from the recording in the song. That's what makes it truly come alive.

[@IrisOnironauta]

"Keaton, wave to daddy" I'm not a native speaker and a friend of mine pointed out to me what are the words at the end. It's heartbreaking.

[@JasSatineBeeBarisGae]

I am very crying. I'm very afraid to lose my parents.

[@TheSamsonizzle]

I believe he lost his father two days after finishing recording this to-be-released album. My heart goes out to him. Words are insufficient for explaining what it is like to love someone so much and to lose them, but this song comes close. My end of my parent’s time on this earth is on the horizon and I know that it’s nearer than I wish. I really love them a lot, I will go give them a hug and tell them. I think if others that have left and the impact that they have had on my life and the void remaining after their passing... Every person is special, yes you, reading this, you’re special. You have your own way of doing things, thinking, and loving; you’ve touched more people’s lives than you can ever know. When I was 12, my grandfather ended his own life. His suicide is still something that I struggle with. I know he was in lots of pain and I have compassion toward his suffering and I am no longer angry. But it did hurt, it still does. I remember my grandmother wailing when me, my brother, and my parents met her in the doorway of the house that they had long lived in. I remember her asking “why would he do this to me?” Of course that wasn’t his intention. It’s such a painful memory. She hurt, because she loved him greatly. The people we love, they become part of us, Keaton touches on that in Prayer. It hurts so much that we sometimes wish we wouldn’t feel it anymore “oh God, don’t make me feel...”. I’m in awe at Keaton’s ability to emote so much through his music and thankful for his influence in my own life. Keaton, your dad was a beautiful person, and I’m sorry that he’s gone now. I pray for healing for you. These wounds are the kind that will never fully heal, because as you know, he was a part of you, and now that piece is gone. But thank you for being open about your grief through this song and this video.

[@PaulaJimena]

I don't understand how people survive without their parents. It's literally one of my biggest fears. Often at night I find myself thinking "what will I do when my parents die?"... it just feels like I wouldn't know how to do anything without feeling sad and lost.

[@tomburgess6130]

Absolutely broken and everyday is a battle

[@jenni740]

never disappointed with what you create,, absolutely breathtaking as always

[@alexandraf1020]

This man literally saves me. I’m drowning in apathy/misery and his songs are the only reason I feel something.

[@yagz1808]

In 1998 I wàs very lucky to meet Henson family.I will keep those great times in my hart for good.Nicky was a great person.RIP Nicky

[@daniellelyons6600]

Nothing makes me happier than getting a notification from Keaton Henson's channel.

[@roukayazetchi4865]

Me too

[@fragilesoulofthespotless80]

Keaton reminds me of childhood memories I never had

[@anubhab_roy]

the world is far more tranquil and beautiful knowing that keaton henson is a part of it

[@jmferris1138]

Dear Keaton, i lost my father in 2016. My relationship with him was complicated, as i loved and respected him, but i also feared him and dreaded his anger. Listening to this piece of music has given me some solace about the memory of his passing. Please know that i thank you for sharing your unique and honest art with us and for helping make the pain of this world a little more bearable. Very Respectfully, James

[@Dlbt]

I think that the video it’s about loosing someone, all the memories that the places bring to you about that person, but at the end you still see those places with nostalgic,but the sun comes always comes back

[@camrynhamme]

Dlbt 6969 it’s about the loss of his father Nicky Henson in December of last year I believe.

[@jamesgournell278]

I know I lost my dad 3 years in January and I miss him so much the talks the laughs and caring for him. Love you dad R.I.P

[@fevagelou]

I'm so sorry for your loss, Keaton, but this Art you have created in his honour is so tremendous. Few people receive such a memorial. You have perfectly encapsulated the pain of losing such a beloved parent. I am in tears.

[@paulabogutbilinovac5657]

While your music never "saved me" like people often say for their favorite musicians, you have for sure helped me understand my most intense feelings and I'm forever grateful. Be brave, lots love from Croatia, xoxo

[@BeTheVillain]

Just came from spotify to say that i haven't been so touched by music in a long time.

[@apathysatragedy3114]

I was watching Gray's anatomy when I got this notification. Only Keaton Henson and my grandma can get between me and Gray's. This man is too powerful

[@hikarikunisaki]

I was a mess by the end of this. Thank you for giving us such beautiful music. So much love.

[@pagodacloud2241]

Hope one day you'll hear this song. I'm losing you and i miss You so much.

[@rcculture6613]

Sadness continues to engender beauty like in this song. It will be that pain leaves us emotions raw and it is easier to show them. I'm sorry for your loss, Keaton, but remember that loved ones never leave us completely, they always live in our memory. Thank you for sharing this beauty with us.

[@greateralexander]

Morning tears. I can feel you crying and releasing through this one.

[@wanibng]

I paused everything for this. I don't regret it.

[@k.f203]

“I held you in, while you shed your skin// and I read myself to sleep.” “Unbalanced, triumphant and trying again.”

[@Venus0Kets]

Is this what it's like to lose a loving parent? I'm not good with emotions but this is as close as I have been to understand- the pain and sorrow but also the bitter sweet memories. There was a wave of emotion after 4:10, the lyrics are beautiful but something about the rise of the string instruments and laughter hit me. A masterpiece.

[@nini_aeranoid]

Yes…this is what losing a loving parent feels like. 😔

[@shierfruitsalad]

my father passed in December, Ive cried to this song so many goddamn times.

[@nourhassoun7099]

Your music feels like a warm hug after an explosion that wiped out half my city

My Grandpa died eight days ago. God bless you for the gift that this song is. I needed this.

[@staciejean]

" I'm saving you up All for the day you leave" 😭I'm sorry for your loss Keaton💔 I'm sure your Dad is so fucking proud of you! I hope you can still here him speak to you. Im sure he is Speaking up! And he wants you to know, you will NEVER lose him! This body we all shed someday..you will see him again! I lost my 22 year old son suddenly less than 2 years ago...no chance to set an intention to 'save him up' while he was still here. Now, I'm left trying to remember moments, memories of times with him so that I can save them, cherish them, relive them... his body is gone from my sight.. and someday when this brains memory banks fail, so will those memories, but only for a time,, only in this realm for he will always be with me..just like your dad is with you✨

[@Oshianna7]

In the midst of all of this darkness we call 2020, you’ve brought back a sliver of light. A glimmer of hope. I’m still sorry about your father. I’m sorry to everyone in this world who’s suffered loss recently. Anyway, welcome back, darling. 😌

[@onepilot8658]

35 seconds in and I’m already obsessed

[@jessicagillespie6703]

The second I saw this, I ditched the other video I was watching. Keaton's music is hands down the best!❤️❤️ My goodness....I've never had a song that made me cry. Seeing the empty chair, coffee mug and book, just got to me😢

[@helenawouters_]

You always blow me away and make me feel overwhelmed, and I'm forever grateful

My Dad is has just been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, and this has just triggered the huge cry I do desperately needed.. Thank you KH for reaching into our souls. I don’t know how you do it, but thank you. 🙏

[@jordandiaz5083]

I'm just sitting here in my sofa, trying to draw something, drinking some coffee, listening to Keatons voice and thinking of my father, who isn't here anymore. Some tears come to my eyes, but I'm ok, somehow very calm and even joyful if that make sense.

[@crazydiamond1273]

his music is something else. I feel it with an every single fiber of my soul.

[@amylee3531]

Love love love so much.

[@amylee3531]

I thought I was a very rare differrnt person but the way his songs are written make me realize I'm not the only one this way.

[@kennedyfreitas7548]

As I said before, nobody portrays pain like Keaton does… Honest and pure pain surrounded by love.

[@samman2764]

He's waiting...waiting for those doors to open again but even when they do, he won't be there, crying to the walls that still echoes his father's voices, yearning for beautiful days we all have lost, our childhood when everything was fine even if everything was wrong. This song was so pure Keaton...you left us feeling every bit of it🖤

[@butterhugs]

Oh god I'm bawling. Keaton I am so sorry for your loss. Thank you for making such beautiful heartfelt music to share your emotions with us. Thank you

[@selinamarie7128]

Man, this song has gotten me through so much. It makes it easier to heal because it pulls out what I've been feeling. I just sit and close my eyes and let it pass through me

[@chinny4954]

So many of Keaton's songs have that healing affect.

[@ridethatslapthat]

I can feel the depth of sadness in his heart by the sound of his voice in this.
