First Time Listening James Blunt - Monsters REACTION (Very Emotional😭I Couldn’t Hold Back My Tears)

[@stowcreek1999]

Love your genuine reaction and emotion... yes...its a great and emotional song

[@kristinmoore693]

James Blunt is very underrated. I have been a fan for years. His lyrics are amazing!! Great song writer. ❤️❤️

[@anthonymccoll5]

Totally agree, doesn't get the respect he deserves. It's become "edgy" to hate on the guy.

[@Zanarkant]

I'm a fan from around 2005, starting with the "you're beautiful" song. Great voice

[@FixTheLanes]

The cinematography of his videos adds so much depth to the meanings behind bhis music in almost all of his songs

[@superdopehiphop]

@@anthonymccoll5I’ve never understood it granted I’ve pretty much only heard this and Beautiful and thought both were dope.

[@joyparry9354]

Your response mirrors mine to this song - the lyrics, the voice .... and the fact that it is James' father in the video all combine to make this such a powerful video ...

[@RoosterDane]

James Blunt is one of those special artists. He’s been making music for quite some years now and whenever he releases a song you have to listen

[@swfcocs1]

Songs like this show that basically we are all the same, people from every corner of the world have this reaction, it's a beautiful thing about such a sad song

[@anbs2476]

I love this reaction. You see the sadness and genuinity in the first words.

[@MommaBird52]

Another comment told the story, however it did not include that a cousin came forward and donated and they are both doing well!

“No need to forgive; no need to forget - I know your mistakes and you know mine.”

[@stephenmorgan9852]

Good job girl, you got the song and what it means. No escape from this ,, we all go through it

[@allisonnancholas9620]

His dad had stage 4 kidney failure when James wrote this and a donor couldn't be found. After the video was released a distant cousin came forward who was a match. He donated all the profits from this song to Help For Hero's a UK veterans charity (both him and his dad were in the military)

[@martinmorris6868]

A lovely and genuine reaction from you. James Blunt and his father were both Captains in the British Army (at different times obviously) and served with distinction. His dad had stage.4. cancer but recovered after a relative stepped forward to have a transplant. It's been over a decade since I cared for my father until he passed away and I was in floods. Fabulous song.

[@MrStaffy01]

his father was a colonel

[@espenvippen]

One of the most beautiful reactions I have seen .. 😀 ❤️ Greetings from Norway. 😀

[@ovuadaokpen]

Thank you so much

[@roberthaines1227]

Never be sorry for crying. I lost my dad to cancer and this song makes me cry every time. Miss him dearly.

[@johnellis2523]

Wow heavy!! great Singer,,understandable reaction good job

[@ovuadaokpen]

Thanks for the kind words 😊🙏

[@markchaffee4571]

Ovuada, thank you for sharing your reaction to 'Monsters'. Glad you found it so moving. Something you might consider. James tears...moved you. As you notice...he didn't fight them, didn't wipe them away...didn't apologize for letting you see the breadth of what he felt. And that made you feel...powerfully feel...because he was so honest...so open...so transparent. Many reactors get caught up in trying to not cry, to keep swiping away or dabbing their tears...as if that had value to anyone but the reactor wanting to control their image online. Your observers of your reactions are far more focused on seeing and hearing the REAL you. You kept talking about how 'deep' the video is. May I offer...throw that label away...as it misleads...'deep'. Rather...substitute it with 'real'. He didn't use big words, didn't use complex arguments...just words that strip away the masks and costumes that people lug around everywhere to try to present to the world an image people believe the world wants more than they want the real person. The gift of your life...the gift of your expression...cannot be fully appreciated and nurtured...if first...you think an image is more important to your audience than breathing the real person...with tears and laughter...pain and joy. Be the gift...the universe brought forward after 13.5 billion years. If I can't enjoy you sharing something so powerful that you're blubbering sloppy tears with snot running out of your nose...then can I really ever enjoy you...or do I want the Ovuada-mannequin to look pretty...and petitely say to me...'that was so deep'...acting the same as if it wasn't? mark

You are a very pretty woman. And your heart and soul resonates outward making you more beautiful.

[@kerrimelson]

Beautiful and heartfelt reaction. ❤

[@thelegendaryyoutuber6481]

[@bikergrandma2316]

Never be sorry for having feelings.

[@gerardocolombres5844]

Great song great reaction

[@deborahdennehy9937]

Extremely emotional as James Blunt thought his father was passing away due to his kidneys, but thankfully he had a new kidney which is marvelous. Adore James Blunt. xx

[@ShirleyHickman-oy7go]

Crying 😢

[@ninjacat4929]

Very sincere and beautiful !

[@debrafujioka9792]

Beautiful reaction

[@Tonyboy3623]

God your beautiful ❤❤❤

[@flamingbridges1649]

He was singing this for his dad who had stage 4 kidney disease. Luckily his dad managed to get a transplant

[@coldtruth1824]

They are our pop's the last thing i did was put my dad's socks on him, Two days later i got in the hospital bed and laid my head on his chest he took his last breath, Love you dad see you soon bless everyone 😢🙏

[@SheriRoyston]

This was written by James after his father was told it was highly unlikely that he would get the life-saving transplant he desperately needed. The good news is that only a few weeks after the song and video (yes that is James' dad) was released a donor was found and thankfully a couple of years on, his Dad is still alive

[@sandros5199]

I love song 🇮🇹🌹

[@shadsullivan7817]

Finally, all of you, have unity of mind, sympathy, brotherly love, a tender heart, and a humble mind.1Peter 3:8

[@deepbluehue3]

SUCH a Universal theme EVERYONE can relate to ; mortality of a parent .... So many grown MEN and women crying in reactions to this song on youtube . Until now , most people only know james blunt for his most famous song that i added in comment below / you may have heard it somewhere in the past ...

[@Thetexancoach]

First off, Miss Ovuada, I appreciated much your reactions and comments, but just as you say as the song was very tugging at the heart, at the same time it was also very beautiful. James made this video at the same time his father was dying of kidney failure and due to the fact that the dad had a rare blood type, no volunteer donors for a kidney transplant could be found, so time was getting close to Jame's father dying. That really is Jame's dad popping up towards the end of the video. Jame's producers did not want him to perform this video with his dad, as they felt it would be too unprofessional, however, James in wanting to pay tribute to his father, insisted. Although he was very emotional and indeed did sing out of key a few times, he gave a very raw but sincere and honest performance. Again, we did appreciate your 'sincere' reactions, which give us all a glimmer of hope for humanity in our caring and feeling for one another...

[@mxnolis]

Bit dramatic lol to call it a glimmer of hope

[@twdarcy]

Songs of love are underrated. Listen to more, please?

[@sordan8392]

i love you

[@FirstLast-dd5bx]

Please don't be sorry for crying, you are human, and if you have any empathy this song should make you cry.

[@ronaldolson3214]

That's a funny thing about music if Donald happy music it's all sad music it's some music that can pull your soul out through your to your body but that's okay

[@bobbymadera3234]

Nice video sweetie pie

[@ovuadaokpen]

Thank you so much 😊

[@CursiMusic]

so sad. another sad one by him was carry you home

[@alanrichardson1297]

No need to be sorry for emotions x

[@zionsapphire7143]

This must be deep guys. Just saying it's deep

[@rogersoares4920]

Please react to Gabriel Henrique Run to you

[@johnlawrence7386]

[@ovuadaokpen]
