When you struggle against depression this is pure medicine...

[@stottselena]

I wish it was for my brother he listened to this a lot but still decided to leave us

[@TheGazavman]

Medecine changed my life ! Each morning is a chance to enjoy the day !

[@boxingbrenno]

his music becomes more relevant every day!!!

[@JRA73]

It certainly does unfortunately!🖒

[@moniqueschramm7821]

❤️ Very true that!! Richard knows...

[@lukegreig4441]

I don’t know how he isn’t bigger than what he is. He should have millions and millions of fans in my opinion. His music is amazing

[@MrHITACHI75]

💯 Fucking agree with that

His music & and lyrics are becoming more relevant in 2024

[@raphaellk2]

He´s Richard fucking Ashcroft, he can do whatever he wants. His talent won´t ever die! Great song!

[@rachaelhumphries5516]

His genius at the music is exceptional

[@TheHoot1964]

Spot on my friend.

[@TCNHC]

He is one of the greatest singers and song writers of our times. Pure genius. We are so lucky to have him around. You better hold on!!!

[@monalis7]

Richard Ashcroft has got his own spirit and influence on people. He is as he is. Doesn't change himself for any reason. The same wife, the same family. Not pretending anything for the sake of money. On the stage he closes his eyes and sings from his heart with all of the spectrum of his emotions and feelings. You can feel it from his voice, which in itself is strong and powerful (I'm not talking about the loudness but about the purity and some sort of being natural without faking anything to show off). He is a kind of an artist you either admire or simply dislike. I like his style and expression. He doesn't care but at the same time he is soft in himself.

[@GT380man]

Beautifully said. Richards’s voice is so unusual and his vocal style & control means he doesn’t need much else in a song, though he writes deep stuff & his touch on orchestration is superb.

[@peterwetton2655]

fantastic song, great video, no fancy cinematography just Ashcroft's soul and personality, Britain's best singer songwriter enjoying his own music, and seeing his confidence and listening to his vocals inspires.

[@declanfox9249]

Great lirics great singer@ song writer great day too b listening to his music thank u Richard rich n music and life thanks again

[@magditapilla]

Why there's people that doesn't like this video? Do they prefer to see him dancing in a pool with girls in bikini? No, this isn't Richard. He is simple, only with his music, voice and guitar reaches our hearts. He don't need ornaments. His music adpater modern style without losing its essence. Great Richard!

[@dianamichellecoleman]

I agree! OK the mask around his neck is kind of funny but I don't care...I'm listening to his amazing voice and that's all that matters!!!

[@paulcain5785]

Amazing thing about Richard Ashcroft is his songs travels along with time and never gets old whenever you listen. I am sure my grand kids will be enjoying too.

[@nicholaswool505]

Shout out to anyone going through a tough time, hold on

[@Now7518]

Hold on for the rapture it’s coming so very soon❤

[@DylanHamilton-lh4rk]

His lyrics and snog writing are incredible, the best for decades in my opinion!

[@jessevonsinn890]

yeah...the whole album is great ;)

[@C.S.T]

BROWNER included in that ....

[@stevestocker8467]

Top top snog writer!😆

[@paulk8072]

Check out his music with his first two solo albums. They are classics. The best music of our age, wholesome God-orientated, marriage influenced his music with positivity, yet also reflected the sorrow in the world.

[@WCWfanboy]

Bad video? who cares, this is Richard Ashcroft, that is enough!

[@MrCaptainInternet]

I know dude...and seeing him rock those moves I want to dance too lol

[@WCWfanboy]

[@christineholmes5919]

Rob Smith brilliant 😍 it’s like he is literally singing it to us ☺️ genius, I’m off to see if he is single 😄

[@BradyLMarshall]

What a beautiful, fun, upbeat song for 2016, the year of my graduation from high school. It didn't even come to my notice until 2019 or 2020, after seeing the video for "Bittersweet Symphony" here on KZbin. And now whenever I listen to it, I feel nostalgic for, and even like it is, 2016. In a sad way, because now I feel like I MISS it. I first became aware of this musician in 2013, when I downloaded his solo song "Human Condition" from Google Play Music because it was the free song of the day. And in 2016, I just had no interest in his music....

[@busterhoward95]

Cool as fuck...genius...legend...one of the best live gigs I have seen..respect mr RA 🙏👍

[@landofw56]

Absolute masterpiece

[@HeartNDagger18]

This is such a tune, powerful!

[@072622001]

Es una de las canciones que no dejaré de escuchar en lo que sigue del año. Richard Ashcroft se mantiene vigente, no necesita seguir las grandes corrientes ni nada de eso. Se nota que trabaja todavía por amor a la música. Se agradece que músicos como él y muchos mas todavía se den el tiempo y conserven energías para volver a encantarnos.

[@mariecc222]

Irs like he’s speaking to every one of us ! Fasten ur seat belts folks and hold on the rides gotta be rocky but it’s worth it w beats like this 🦋🤍💙🤍

Very nice song, excellent vibe !

[@jonyu3597]

Richard kind of walked by me on my life journey.. the mindset in the 90s was so different, i'm glad we rescued ourselves from the apocalyptic parts and kept the romantic parts...

[@metalbearuk]

Saw him support the Stones at Manchester and he was superb. Purchased all his solo albums at once.

Best Tune I've heard in years

[@myfrequencies1912]

Just got this album & this guy is AWAKE. Love some of these lyrics. & he's so effortless with it. Actually "They don't own me" just had me picking up my guitar for the first time in literally months. Three/four chord anthems, Ashcroft at his best.

[@chriscrouch7576]

so uplifting and great song.really hits the spot and strings are epic.

[@peterwetton2655]

This should be the 2020 anthem, so true, every single word.

[@captaincaveman3025]

Jesus Christ Amen 🙏

[@aarnoalikoski1755]

Great song, I need music like this right now. I want to dance, I want to move, I need to run. This is a song you want to hear it again and again.

[@anonair6493]

Is it just me or does Richard directly talk to us and knows we are great minds alike? I wanna see this man live my big brother seen the Verve he's no longer here but he got me in to the Verve and Richard when I was young. I remember the days of bitter sweet sympathy before school. Memories to last a life time hope you come to Belfast sometime soon and of course vaccines and CPR tests won't be needed as this great man is against the plannedemic

Apocalyptic mind my head was full of sorrow whispered words of logic things i need to learn, this whole song is just genius and why doesn't Ashcroft get the praise and celebration of his talents as he deserves? Inspirational ain't the word RA ROCKS!

[@toledo_campos]

This song is amazing, though the studio version is softer than it would be. Live is a banger. It's really, really good, with power and euphoria that can match the classics in a great way. On Roundhouse it was awesome. This video is Richard having fun with the concept of the cover art, simply hahaha
