My mother passed away and took her last breath. I was by her bed with my siblings, I was strong and hid my sorrow. I kissed my mum goodbye. Then drove home still numb and that’s when this song started playing on the radio. My emotions came to surface, I pulled over and broke down and cried. I will never forget that time. I miss my mum and this song reminds me of her. 😢🌟❤️

listening to this song while watching people walk by, cars drive by, slow breeze hitting your face and hair, the sun about to set, golden red painted sky, you take a moment to shut out the world, and take in the immensity and magesticity of the world, and everything that you've been through, the way life has shaped in your memory, and everything life will bring to you next.

this song is the feeling of waking up from an afternoon sleep, right after you open your eyes, when for a moment you have no idea about your problems or worries and just see the light coming through the window and say to yourself "wow, that's beautiful". (and i'm grateful to have this song because frankly i rarely have time for the afternoon sleep part) but before i get any more self-indulgently poetic: i wanted to share a song called "a sign" by seaside, because it reminded me of this, and because it deserves more views. it has the same kind of relentlessly hopeful vibe as this song or hey now - listen to it and then spread the word :)

Im seeing many people in the comments sharing about lost loved ones. I wanted to express somethong to all of you. I personally havent had anyone very close to me pass but i know it could absolutly detroy me. I wont fully understand untill it happens. But i do feel alot of empathy for you all❤ I really don't mean to be cheesy or dismissive of anyones pain. But there is something I do beleive and keep in mind. All I know for a fact is that energy can never be destroyed. Only transfered. I don't know where that energy goes of a passed loved one, but just know it doesn't die. I think where ever they go, they are being loved and taken care of. I also think energy transfers between people, leaving imprints. Transfering part of them into you. A soul connection that is Forever. ❤ sending everyone love and thank you all for sharing.

Can people stop insulting other artists? Ok, you don't like Nicki Minaj, but that doesn't mean she's untalented. The talented artists aren't the ones that only you listen to. Music is subjective, not OBjective. Which means that some like it, others don't. I like 30 Seconds To Mars, others don't. Yeah, sure, I don't understand how they can't like them, but if they say for example that they like Disclosure, and I don't, I'm not gonna say they're untalented, mainly because they're selling and selling, which means people like their sound, same as 1D, 5S0S Justin Bieber etc etc. So, just coz it's your sound doesn't mean they're not good to others. So stop insulting others. It's YOUR opinion, don't assume everyone has your opinion coz to assume (to use a military term) makes an ass out of u and me, or in this case, just you, and you can't pass off opinions as facts, so put IMO or IMHO in front or something.

[@adala1007]

30secondstomarsMBH Nope! Music is not subjective ,taste is subjective. Thats why U can separate talented ppl form not talented , good music from no good. There R objective patterns U can use. But yes , taste is subjective U like any kinda musci U wanna. Just saying etc: "Britney Spears is talented and her music is good"-is a huge lie not subjective taste:))).And dont forget, succes and talent is not the same! Thats why its called showbiz not X-factor. Ok? Showbiz is for to sell U everything. And if U have those patterns to separate good from bad- U gonna find diamonds amongst crap.Thats why million selling of Milli Vanilli and Pink Floyd,also.

[@adala1007]

30secondstomarsMBH And why ppl insulting "artists" its not becuz they R retards but becuz the need of talent and quality music is inside of many ppl. Just a natural need of beauty ,quality, piece ,etc. But U see showbiz can sell Justin Bieber also. Why? So simple. Showbiz sells crap to teen gen cuz there taste, way of thinking is very, very flexible and fragile . Like Erickson (psychologist) said, teen gen from 15-18 try to find there own role, ownself,own taste,etc and this is the area where enthusiasm works so hard,being a fan of an idol. But yes, many time ppl insulting others just becuz they R retards or they think there taste is the only pattern. Thats why U dont understand why ppl dont like 30 seconds to Mary.:)

Taste is subjective and music preference (e.g what you think is good and what you think is bad) is based on taste, hence music is subjective. Talent is also based on subjectiveness. If you don't like football you won't recognise talent in Ronaldo, or Messi. If you don't like Mars you won't recognise the talent. It's all about taste, and what can appeal to a mass audience. The more it appeals to them, the more talent they are deemed to have. I know someone who doesn't like Michael Jackson, they personally wouldn't be able to say he is talented because if he was, they'd theoretically like his music. They just recognise that others like his music, and a lot of others, so they assume he is talented. Nicki Minaj is evidently talented because if she wasn't she wouldn't have been noticed and she wouldn't have made so much money. There is a talent there. It's just about recognising that it's about subjectiveness. Not intelligence, or anything like that, it's about subjectiveness.

30secondstomarsMBH really, really well said and well put; I wish this could be a condition of KZbin use

[@flycorvus]

Oh my God... Her voice makes me cry... Just like an angel.

[@evanoralisa4685]

This song has such a beautiful, emotional and strong energy. It really speaks to me. Currently in a difficult mental state. Always have been putting myself second for others, let people step over my boundaries until it took too much of my energy, leaving me drained. This song came up and I cried when she sung “I might seem so strong, I might speak so long, I’ve never been so wrong”. Beautiful ❤️

[@SyTheMetalhead]

Take time for YOU too. You matter just as much as your friends and your family ♥️

[@masked_pair1935]

Danke für dieses Lied… begleitet mich täglich seit zwei Wochen… und auch jetzt, auf dem Weg zur Beerdigung meines geliebten Opas … 💔❤️‍🩹

One of the most mind blowing voices of the modern era ... absolutely stunning

[@chrisamos7240]

This touches the soul man her voice is insane 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@nilan1526]

not a single word was understood..... full of emotions....with tears.... such a masterpiece.....😍😍😍😍

[@hmnanda]

meanwhile in the u.s., crap artists like taylor swift and meghan trainor are topping charts.

[@Corrah]

It's possible to dislike artists without being rude about it. Just a friendly reminder.

[@hmnanda]

***** ^lol "why you gotta be so rude~? don't you know i'm human too~?"

[@blondecaveman9100]

absolutely agree!!! give this more likes please!~

[@assimilatedvegatbles]

Its music. not a competition. Even with other music you obviously do not enjoy, hits charts. you find a way to find this.. He is right. Music I see everyday I feel like should hit top charts but it doesn't mean some of the artists who are there iddn't work to be where they are. Just enjoy what are open and able to hear, not what we are open and able to hear.

[@riyucooksolenar1932]

I don't listen to Taylor Swift, but she's a hard worker and i have a lot of respect for what she does as an artist.

[@BritainsSoTalented]

Thanks to the Voice for leading me to this beautiful song.

[@cuchelo1]

I loved Aisling's version of it, and this week on the Australian Voice two guys sang it in the battle rounds. Another great take on it. And of course the original is stunning as well!

[@deetsdaily]

One day you're going to win a Grammy and I'm leaving this comment here to prove to everyone that I always believed you will ♥️

[@reingodonline9238]

As a father from a young girl now i understand the deep of the song now. YOU DO EVERTHING for ur kid, every day 24/7.

[@juditvp5641]

her voice is so unreal.....this song is so cool!!!

[@SJSnowdon]

I find it hard to listen to this in front of people as it rips through my soul so bad it makes me cry. on my own I can't help but cry, it resonates through my entire being. Breathtaking Music

[@angie-smart-but-casual]

As time passes the song will have a different feeling for you

[@abigalemandler5662]

for me, this song represents that part inside of all of us we know we need to let out (lion roaring), our inner child needing healing (child crying) and then the line “caught in the middle” representing those moments in life where you’re caught in a transitional period of who you once were and who you’re becoming and how painful and alone it can feel. once we listen to the strength inside of us and heal our inner child we can get get through those transitional periods. what an emotional song. it seems to purge any stagnant, old energy im holding onto and allows me to just cry. love it.

[@garypowers585]

Everything you put out for us your genuine true fans is so very much appreciated it. You guys are so phenomenal and inspiring and incredible, I personally want to thank you London Grammar for showing me a light at the end of a very dark tunnel. You are therapy to me in so many different ways. Thank you for your phenomenal music you make and you are truly my inspiration to living ❤❤❤

[@exmo7]

Damn this is so beautiful.

[@itriedvquick]

Good music, good band and beautiful singer! *-------*

[@MrKeehar]

And when your son or daughter, is born, you really want to become a shelter, a shield, a fire of love, the most patient teacher and the best friend. A hero, their hero, and the best father they could have. And all the sacrifices are nothing, all the pain and the struggling have a meaning, and you are willful to take them all. May you rise toward the greatest heigh of happiness in this life, my beloved children.

[@jennyschlegelmilch865]

Best song ever!! ❤

[@Alison-qx1om]

My daughter sent this to me ...its so true how a song can resonate with a person's feelings ❤

[@AdeldMeyer]

The word 'Beautiful' describes this song beautifully ~ Love the emotions this song awakens within...

[@esterlaska7615]

This song reminds of November 26th, the day my house got destroyed by the worst earthquake we had ever had in 40 years. We were listening to this song in the radio as we were driving away from my hometown and as our heart was shattered in pieces. It was the first time I saw my parents cry, the people who have always given me strength and hope. I will forever be traumatized by this event. It’s almost hard to believe how small and unimportant we are in this planet.

[@FCEfan1997]

This song always gives me the strongest nostalgia feeling. I remember in September 2014, when I was 17 years old, our class made a trip to Lago di Garda in Italy (I live in Germany). Although we weren't allowed to wander off in the evening, I went for a walk at the lake by my self. I put my headphones in and played this song. I still remember, like it was yesterday, when the song started I looked across the lake, seeing all those beautiful lights at the other side of the lake, while inhaling that beautiful Italian summer air and thinking about that Girl I was dating, who was waiting for me back home in Germany. Life was so perfect at that time. There is no song, that has such an impact on me on that level. Everytime listen to that song, I am 17 again and at that lake. I still have that beautiful smell of Lake Garda in summertime in my nose. It's crazy.

[@meli-qg4mg]

Hört sich nach einem perfekten Moment an :)

[@marceloalvarez3504]

Das sind die Momente die niemals enden und immer weiterleben 🙂🙂 behalt das genauso im kopp, und alles wird gut!!!!🙂🙂🙂🙋‍♂️

[@jtx3358]

Whenever I’m alone, or I’m in my feelings, I put this song on and I don’t know why somehow it gives me hope that life is hard but you can get past it. I listen to this song with tears pouring down my eyes, such a calm,peaceful song. What’s worse is growing up emotionally destroyed I’m on my own. But this song is EVERYTHING❤️ music is really your escape to everything

[@valerie721]

🌺 Music is…so empowering. Definitely.

[@jaimzblonde07streetavenger42]

Music is the diary of my life remember and reminds me where I was

[@frederickfrost4066]

stunning voice and range, one of the best vocalist of this generation and beyond...

[@andrewerntell4775]

Im not religious but her voice really is a gift from God or whomever.

[@hans-peterbrugger8963]

One of the best songs ever. By one of the best voices ever. Never will I forget the warm summer night in 2013 when THIS voice came out of my car radio while driving through the night. It was so touching that I felt my convertible lifting off, rising into the dark sky, full of stars... fading away into deep universe...

[@MtbSam725]

In 2021 I went to a Coldplay concert at Wembley and I can strongly remember this playing whilst the wind blew in the late night summer sky. Even now this floods back every memory I can remember ❤

[@rootical2331]

Such a Beautiful song. A great voice and amazing guitar notes. What a total Banger!!!

[@guilhermesouza5119]

London Grammar,my new favorite artists and it's gonna be for a long time. Thanks for sharing your songs,they speak for me. Part of my life it's written in this and specially in Wasting my Young Years.

[@DallasCoryell]

***** I know right?! I can't believe I am just now finding out about them.

[@miucchi]

Nice ^///^

[@DallasCoryell]

***** Every lyric site I checked had "I might". She also seems to change from "so down caught" to "so damn caught" during the song. Certainly an interesting lyrical mystery.

[@DallasCoryell]

***** I just downloaded the Album booklet and UR RIGHT!!! Thanks for pointing that out...editing my comment now.

This song was played at my uncles funeral. Ive never been able to hear it without crying since. For some reason i really attach this song to grief.

[@jeanettebishop4685]

I often wonder how film/video creators are able to interpret a lyric into a story like this one. Like the music, the video is stunning.

[@O-o-Azazel-o-O]

this song is haunting and beautiful at the same time. i love it

[@simbad9615]

Her voice deserves more credit 🙌🏻❤️😮

[@stevenrollings337]

I come here to listen to this beautiful, haunting song to take me away from my life in this cruel world if only for four minutes in heaven .. takecare all those who have lost someone close

[@AreaCode865]

Such a powerful, emotionally stirring track - Who else is this sending shivers through?

[@MamacitaSte]

what a song .... one of my most favorite songs i've ever heard, that voice, so fragile ... love love love !!!!

[@nyxato7649]

+stephanie deceuniginne Her voice sounds like the opposite of fragile... Not saying it's bad, simply that "fragile" isn't the word I'd use. I'd use "smooth" or "tuned".

[@Retroscoop]

+Nyxato I would use "smooth" for Sade or Judie Tzuke, "tuned' too sounds odd. I thing "fragile" here is not meant in the sense of "weak'' of course that isn't the case, but the atmosphere has something "gently depressive", hence fragile.

[@nyxato7649]

Benoit Vanhees Then gentle would've been a better word considering gentle doesn't = fragile. You say that like if it's flawless logic but it really isnt.

[@Retroscoop]

Nyxato My name ain't Spock, sir, whatever my logic is or isn't, I'm always open to change my point of view based on arguments. When Sting is singing about "fragile", what do you think he meant ? I have been thinking for the right adjective for LR's singer, and up to now I haven't nailed down THE word that sums it up. The word "sensual' would not be right, because that would involve a more "positive", less plaintive way of singing. Sensual was sometimes, not always true for Kate Bush. Sensual would be right for let's say Loreena McKennitt or Enya. Fragile is also not the word I would have chosen, though I understand what the one who launched it meant. And as a male listener, doesn't plaintive vocals always bring up the hidden knight in us, whether the nowadays "damzels in distress" like it or not. It's something automatic. But she doesn't sound 'plaintive" like Adele or Fiona Apple, which to me is a bit over the top. Maybe two words together are needed do describe it, maybe she has found a spot in the musical spectrum which makes it very difficult to find anyone who she could be compared with ? Even let's say the soft complaining of the front woman of the Motels isn't exactly the same. To describe LG, you'd need to put together elements such as purity, sensuality, the plaintive part, the fact that she reduces her singing to the core, the strict necessary in a highly effective way. Hats off for the one who finds the right word !

[@nyxato7649]

Benoit Vanhees 29 lines of text, you arent fucking around. *salutes*. Laters. Not emotionally invested in this enough to read that so uh... you wasted your time writing it. Good job.

[@korbit360]

Absolutely love this!! Hannah's voice gives me goose bumps and I think they made a wise decision to make the accompanying instrumentation understated and subtle, letting her voice take center stage. As an aside, when so many modern "artists" are without talent and are only popular because they flaunt their sexuality, it's a breath of fresh air to see a band that is simply excellent. Hannah usually dresses in jeans and a sweater with very little makeup and simply wows us with her vocal range and tone. A TRUE artist!!

[@luigivonleonhardt2923]

+Dean you're so right! totally agree with you!

[@viktorcepel1191]

I crying,and dont know,why.Respect.

[@jakebamforth7321]

My friend would put this song on when we used to go out in his silver hatchback when we was like 18. We used to drive out into the Yorkshire countryside just as the sun was going down and listen to this after we had smoked some joints. We would sit there so relaxed and I felt like we we're being transported through time and space as her voice echoed through the car like a choir in a church. I'm 26 now and I am no longer friends with this person, but Hearing this song just brings back those memories of pure peace and tranquillity on a summers evening with one of your best friends, not worried about anything, just enjoying the moment for what it was...

[@craigmcfarlane2462]

Smoking a joint makes it all that much better
