Passenger | Whispers (Official Video)

[@Kitanael]

Me and my girlfriend used to listen to always the same music in our cars. When we sat in mine, it was Passenger. I heard this song in loop and when she was with me, she new that this song meant a world to me. We decided, that if Mike comes to town, we will go and listen to him. Well sadly, we broke up and that took so much. I knew I had to carry on, like Mike sings in holes. But it's not what I wanted, still isn't. Half a year later, passenger visited Vienna and I asked a good friend of mine, if she wanna join me. But I warned her, that I most likely will get emotional there. So I enjoyed his Runaway gig and he played nearly every song I ever wished. I thought- whispers would be perfect for me, but if any possible, not with stopping playing guitar during the song, like he mostly does live. But the last song was survivors and it was okay. I head a great day. When he came back on stage for one more song, the audience sang the chorus of "Scare away the dark" and he joined in again. And just when I thought it cant get any better, he started to play whispers. At this moment I stopped clapping, started to cry immediately and all went out. We were supposed to stand there together and all this loneliness in a crowd of standing people tore me appart. So i sang along with tears running down my cheeks, missing her like I didnt for weeks. I was grateful, that he pulled all the held back emotions out of me, and when he usually hang the guitar over his back, he continued playing, like if someone had told him, that it would mean a fortune to me. Still have to cry while writing about this great moment in my life. My friend stood next to me and held my arm, letting me know she was there for me and that she understood. So Mike got me to Tears in no time, but as he ended, he started right away holes. "Well we've got holes in our hearts, yeah we've got holes in our lives Well we've got holes, we've got holes but we carry on." No better ending to a concert and a love story, that didnt last. Thanks Mike, for beeing.

sulabh parajuli That's what he's talking about in this song, the people listening to his music is overwhelming. (Watch his video behind the album 'Whispers).

[@mariar6662]

I love how Mike shout the last lyrics of the song, and then ends with the whisper of the guitar. So syimbolic.

[@elyssas.5012]

"Everyone's filling me up with noise, I don't know what they're talking about... You see, all I need is a whisper, in a world that only shouts." Fellow introverts, those last lyrics need to become our official slogan. Who's with me?

[@Jase.Manley]

I was at my friends a few months back and he got his laptop out and opened KZbin up and asked me to show him some good songs, i played the Bing Lounge live version of this. We were silent for a while just listening to mike perform and i looked at Ash and he had tears streaming down his face and i asked him what was up, he said 'this song feels like it was written for me' he'd had a lot of trouble with depression recently and this song connected with him. He was out celebrating his birthday 18th July and was having a great time, he died early hours of 19th, he collapsed and went into cardiac arrest, was 29. He had heart problems and wasn't really supposed to drink. I'm going miss him a lot. I had this song played at his funeral on Monday, this song will always mean a lot to me now. I want to say thanks for the beautiful music Mike, you touched Ash like I've never seen before. Thank you

[@gooseknack]

Same here!

[@cherifathecomet7159]

"You see all I need is a whisper in a world that only shouts" This sentence hit me like nothing ever before! I can thoroughly relate to what he says... There's no need for you to shout so you can let your voice be heard. There's no need for amazing grand acts so you can stand out and amaze the world... The smallest little act you make, the simplest truthful word you say, can have the ability to turn a life around. It all counts no matter how small or big. What matters the most is your true intention. You can easily stand out of the crowd simply by being you and spreading all the love and kindness this life offered you. "Be the change you wish to see in the world" -Guandi ^_________^

[@MuunTheFIre]

that line LITERALLY took my breath away

[@Scorpione4]

I felt exactly the same, the first time I listened to this verse. Never have I related to such simple, yet meaningful line, like this before. It says it all...

[@MrMartinmarc]

"See all i need is a whisper in a world that only shouts": thanks for giving us these good whispers

[@patrickquick1762]

No matter how many songs he writes that I love I always come back to this one. That last line “you see all I need’s a whisper in a world that only shouts” gets me every time. It speaks to me in times of trouble or calamity when people pick sides and turn against each other, the sheer honesty of that line echoes my own feelings.

[@christelleraynaltuccio4152]

This hits right in gut, lyrics and performance. Well I've got open eyes And an open door But I don't know what I'm searching for I should know by now Well I've a big old heart This I know for sure But I don't know what my love is for I should know by now Well I wait in line So I can wait some more 'Til I can't remember what I came here for But I can't leave now 'Cause I've a light that shines And a love so pure But I don't know what to use them for I should know by now Well I spent my money, I lost my friends, I broke my mobile phone 3 AM and I'm drunk as hell, and I'm dancing on my own Taxi-cabs ain't stopping, and I don't know my way home Well it's hard to find a reason, when all you have is doubts Hard to see inside yourself when can't see your way out Hard to find an answer when the question won't come out Everyone's filling me up with noise, I don't know what they're talking about Everyone's filling me up with noise, I don't know what they're talking about Everyone's filling me up with noise, I don't know what they're talking about You see all I need's a whisper in a world that only shouts

I think that this one is his best song after Let her go, it's a masterpiece O__O

[@TheDarkAn]

I think the words of this song are deeper..

[@itaintrite]

TheDarkAn I personally love the lyrics of Holes.

[@TheDarkAn]

I can't agree more with you.. Honestly I think there are several songs of his that have really emotional and heartfelt lyrics such as Things You've Never Done, Table For One, Things That Stop You Dreaming, All The Little Lights, Circles, Life's For The Living, Feather On The Clyde.. I believe it wouldn't be easy to choose just one song and call it a masterpiece because all of them have something really special.. My humble opinion!

[@JotaCeeRD]

TheDarkAn Totally agreed with you, Hearth´s on fire, Holes, I See Love, A Thousand Matches... Well, what can i say? Are too many songs i really love of this guy x_x The first one i listened was Let her go and i was like... With no Words, sorry i had to share my feelings about his songs hehe

[@pinkpwincess2007]

You think his best song is Let Her Go, seriously? Have you not heard 27, Bullets, I Hate, Life's For the Living, Caravan, or Blind Love? Wow.

[@tatianazihindula8762]

Is it only me or other people also have deeper feelings and were born extremely emotional and sensitive than others. Do other people also feel like their souls or their personalities are way older than their ages? If a song doesn't have a slow tempo or if its lyrics doesn't make sens... i can't enjoy any bit of it while my friends will like it. I am only 18 but sometimes i feel like i was old already when i was born. I usually relate to people with ages going from 30 years. Old people understand me better.. like 70+ My friends usually misunderstand me and i hate explaining them cause they never understand.. When Michael said he has ''a big old heart'' it really reminded me of myself.. Is it only me or there is something wrong with me..?

[@pukkuncheekin4370]

I'm the exact same way. Look up info about "HSP's" on the Internet. Stands for "highly sensitive persons". Even books have been written about it. You may find it relatable! There's definitely nothing wrong with you.

This song made me cry. It made me think. I know I sound like some emotional idiot trying to gain attention, but I am serious. I have some issues with people in my life, some problems that I feel with eventually end in tragedy. I don't see a reasonable solution to them. This just made me think about them very deeply. Sure, there are other songs that make me teary and such, but this song doesn't even need me to try to make myself think, it just does. Passenger is the one band that truly fits my life. It makes people think, which is what all music should do. Now, I'll be a minute. I need to clean the tears off my face. Keep going strong, passenger. I'll always be a fan ;)
