Tom Rosenthal - My Life is a Song For You (Official Video)

[@doddleoddle]

Oh god

[@kayleigh7442]

the fact dodie knows tom, and enjoys his music just shows how underrated this mans music/art is

[@BassKittehz]

@@kayleigh7442 ..they even sang a song together!

[@annaa.4982]

Love how also bertie puts his fathers shoes on the piano

[@celestemadden]

Bertie and Tom are the dream team, this was so beautiful

[@songbirdellen]

Understated and stunning. What a masterpiece. Bringing together everyone's shared experience of grief and turning it into art to honour those lost and show how really they are all still with us. Cried from beginning to end

[@biancar5763]

'my dad was and my dad is' what a powerful line in the context of this song! perfect match.

[@aydinnasirzadeh2190]

Tom and his art deserve more recognition for sure. Though I low-key feel so lucky to have his songs on my phone without letting the other people know him

[@SammyAme]

Aydin Nasirzadeh tfw you want to support your fave artist but you dont want to share him to your friends because youve become so attached to his songs.

[@moonngff]

YES!! I feel the same !!

[@crystalbethseizetheday8669]

Huh, seems kinda selfish

[@midori4634]

I'm already in tears. I can hear the words.

[@moonngff]

S a m e 🌙🖤

10 years ago, my boyfriend and I decided to split. We stayed together from our 18 to 28 years old. We still loved each other, but we were not sure how to continue. Few weeks after, 13 september 2010, he didn’t come to his work. I was called, and I found him, alone, in what was our flat, dead from a heartattack. Today I am a mum, I am in love with my husband. Nevertheless, I still read his letters and try to live the best I can. Thanks Tom for being able to capture so well in words what is hidden in our hearts. See you in Paris next week.

[@francescaa7829]

this song is a goddamn miracle

[@psychedelicphilosopher991]

You, and everything that you are, will be okay. Breathe, rest, take care of yourself.

[@schmoyoho]

who’s chopping onions in this room, which is also dusty, and also is covered in cat hair, which i am allergic to 😭👏👏💖💖

[@rachelsophiexoxo]

This made me miss my Nana so much. She was this incredible cook and baker and she made clothes and raised 7 boys and ran a farm and drove a Land Rover without power steering! I wasted my time with her, the things I so desperately want to master now, she could have taught me. The cooking and the sewing and the making bread every day from scratch. My mum told me I had inherited her intuition when I cook and I cried into the pans on the stove. I have her apron and her salt pot with the little wedge of cork cut out the lid to fit a spoon in. Every time I add salt, I think of her.

[@dididubalier2196]

It usually happens that way. Its hard to value things when you have them, and when not, you just realise what you had. But life is about keep going and moving on

[@emeliasoderlund]

People coming together and creating something beautiful out of something sad. Let's do more of that! x

[@adeline-music]

"and I just found out that life is a goddamn miracle" you truly never know how wonderful something until it is gone

[@susannapatalano4679]

I lost one of my dearest friends almost five years ago, she was only 22. Today it's her birthday and this song really touched me. I see her in every ballerina, in every leaf that floats and I think that she is always with me. We should talk more often about anorexia.

[@maximilandriel]

My grandfather loved to travel... he worked so damn much his whole life. He never spoke that much... but it always was thoughtful when he did. I always thought he never loved me as much as my big sister cause he always traveled with her instead of me. Then there was my 18 Birthday and then christmas... I got a letter from him with an invitation for travelling with him. 3 months after Christmas he died... and when I was in that far far away country I was sure he was there with me and when I think to much about it I start to cry again. Your Music does something to me.. it's good I think. Thank you for your music ♡

[@jimenabvo2567]

This is gorgeous I lost my grandma a year ago & she was literally my second mother & it feels like she died a week ago the grief is real & I don’t know that the pain is going to go but instead i like to say thanks that I met her. I’m so grateful that I had her as my grandmother

[@itsladuli]

Jimena Bvo i lost my grandma a year ago as well and feel the same. sending you lots of love i’m sure she’s proud of you

[@kakissindekelhaft]

I lost my grandpa 3 weeks ago and he was my super hero everytime and we wanted to do so much this year but now I'm here watching this video and not feeling that alone anymore

[@negarfard3629]

"I don't think I could do this without tears" indeed.

[@emilylw]

I've been fortunate enough that throughout my 18 years of life I have never experienced a death of any loved ones yet. Its something that quite honestly terrifies me because I know that any moment could be the last with the people I love. Death has always terrified me as well since I don't believe in an afterlife, so death truly will be the end in my mind. Even with all of this, this song helps me feel the emotions and prep for the inevitable that I know will have to come. Your music never fails to bring emotion out of me and I love that.

[@gijs6560]

I feel the same. Im so terrified of the possible death of my grandparents. Unreal.

[@martamisztelamisztela5689]

I am lucky enough to say that I have never lost anyone important to me but this song still made me feel so much. During these 4 minutes Every possible emotion went thru my body. Thank you Tom, you are truly an amazing artist but most importantly an extraordinary soul.

[@abbieward557]

this song captures such a sadness that can not be remade. truly beautiful and great to bertie working on this as well. well done everyone.

[@askingdads1810]

At 1:40 when he says, "thanks dad," and smiles I get choked up in the best of ways. I am dad and I feel such pride for his father💛

[@agnesgabriele6502]

My mom is sick. She has had alcohol psychosis since I was born and has been shouting at me day after day, calling me the devil until she moved out. Since then I've seen her occasionally. Yesterday was the last time in a year. It was wonderful. I was crying in her arms in the evening and we were talking about all this. That she knows that she was sick and still is. This knowledge cannot be taken for granted. And this morning she yelled at me again and said that I should go home now. It's the same every time. A message just came from her about how proud she was of me and that she had a guilty conscience. Shit how much I love her This song makes me miss the old times so bad, when she was healthy, caring and playing with me

[@carwyn899]

This is soso beautiful

[@princekazhila2003]

Tom should be knighted for this song.

[@clarissaoropallo6908]

Tom, you are so special

[@hugoesilva7674]

I hope I feel love like this someday

[@efoxkitsune9493]

I feel like my life is a song largely thanks to you, Tom. Thank you. Lots of love ❤

[@RisIgrec]

this made me immediately burst into tears for reasons i don't even know

[@jade-indiabalmer5693]

All my love

[@favss6084]

Yup. This one is going to hurt so much. It already feels so hard. I hope making the song and the video helped you too. Love you

[@doongdoongend]

The thumbnail already got me 😭😭😭 I'm not ready...

[@tansy4453]

After loosing my grandpa at the end of last year, I never really realised quite how much grief makes you appreciate the little things and realise that little quarrels aren’t the things you remember, it’s the way they make a cup of tea or the music they used to listen to. This was beautiful and moving and poignant. I love this. Thank you so much ❤️

[@positivitia5658]

Life IS a goddamn miracle. 💛💛💛

[@affekajsa2569]

I could write miles about this song, all your songs, you. But I don't have to. All i need is one word, Beautiful. Truly beautiful. Thank you.

[@clairehall5104]

Another beautiful video and song

[@pablodetomas5429]

This video has soul. Inspiring in many ways. It is one of the most beautiful ways to honor the memory of someone who has gone. Thank you Tom

[@IslaObscura]

Well I hadn't planned in sobbing today, but I'm glad I did.

[@SR10790]

Thank you so much for this art. I miss my grandad so much. Its been a little over 6 months since he passed, and this made me weep for the first time since his funeral. It hurt so much but it feels good to remember him. We both loved reading and writing, and this has inspired me to start writing again, to keep our passion alive. Thank you all.

[@sandymallon176]

This is so damn beautiful.

[@dinnahmae]

I’ve never seen this before. this song is iconic

[@annastephens8189]

Nothing but tears

[@laurelthefloral7180]

The lighting is nostalgic the emotions of grief I felt in those moments. And seeing as this has been posted on the same day as 5 years ago, my grandma was and still is a light.

[@abirosales4485]

I love you, grandma. And I miss you so much, I'll never forget you. Never

[@axeltorres3305]

this song is like a warm, much-needed hug from a special person

[@MrsTeri007]

Every time. Every time your music and videos are bringing me back faith in humanity and kindness. I have tears in my eyes, what a great job you all did. Beautiful ❤️

[@wolfganglonien2093]

Poignant, touching, and moving...

[@daenerystargaryen4185]

Thank You, Tom.

[@nonfonofficial]

Thank you Tom.

[@SarahPeraltasp0422]

i lost both of my grandparents a year ago. i don’t think i’ve ever truly processed the grief because of how much sadness i had (/have) inside but watching this video brought back some memories i had with them. thank you

[@TSchnorpfeil]

One of the most beautiful videos I've seen.

[@abigailsnider8348]

It’s good to know the song continues after their gone

[@teagan0318]

고마워요 톰 : )

[@leeny3952]

This song reminds me of my grandpa. He died last March during the beginning of the pandemic. He was the funniest person I knew, always in a good mood. I miss him so much.

[@zomuanasailung5054]

i hope Mr.Tom Rosenthal never stop making music...

[@kalani8598]

My God, as soon as you started to sing I burst into tears. Oh the memories...

[@snaileymac7965]

You don't find this song. It finds you when you need it most.

[@жбебра]

They keep living through what their kids and friends and loved ones do, through their art and stories

[@Ginger-Honey-Tea]

My grandpa died 10 days ago. It still feels unreal and I miss him terribly. He was such a great person and an Inspiration. I am glad that I knew him.

[@KwameOA]

I've never not cried while watching this

[@chiii2793]

so now i am crying and i miss my grandpa very much.

[@helga2359]

It’s beautiful but not too sad. I didn’t cry.

[@Mal-bx5gq]

Love this song and love your whole work Tom, greetings from Poland! ❤️ Hope to see you in my country soon

[@limlrumerl-6922]

This is so beautifully human it hurts

[@Beznadziela]

my fav artist and my fav director

[@sophiehanin2816]

I didn't know how much I needed Bertie Gilbert and Tom Rosenthal to collaborate on something till right now

[@Jd_matheusc]

oh god, i'm crying out here. this is beautiful!!!!

[@sabrina-eo1hq]

I lost a classmate/friend at age eleven. even though we weren’t extremely close, his memory gives me motivation to keep going with my life. i always think that what i do, is for him, that his spirit will experience these life moments with me, beside me. i think about him a lot, and i think this is for a reason. he’s definitely my guardian angel. i miss him still.

[@carolinewhitaker967]

Sorry to hear that Sabrina. Please don't blame me though. 🙏 It wasn't my fault. I miss my mum and dad. I have nobody from my family on my side. I never realized Karen giving me the dose with a defective medical pen would cause so much chaos and pain in people's lives. I wish I had upgraded my locks when starting fertility treatment. It has caused major mental health issues for children which breaks my heart. I have also had childhood trauma memory issues from the age of 10 u 13. I never knew Tom Luke or his brother Simon from Friday night dinner but his work with Marie Curie is a good cause.

[@mirellybarros8396]

Gorgeous honestly

[@ellieheale6314]

Oh Tom and co this is so so wonderful

[@mjoymusic7035]

Your music videos are so emotional and capturing. They're not just videos of random people partying on a table, it's like a story and a background that connect people. We're all connected through the stories or through music. It's beautiful

[@souwrmilk]

I cried.

[@MeowTheCheesepuff]

Nice to see Bertie, it was his video that used your music that was the door for more

[@yasminabanur1579]

the song is incredible and really hits the nail on the head with those powerful words

[@StuffLikeJuda]

thank you to everyone involved in this. Bertie is a genious, and I'm glad Ciaran was part of this project as well, but I want to thank every individual for their wonderful contribution. You did a great job, all of you.

[@marcorestelli4907]

Year, I agree, it's under-rated music.

[@adrianrodriguez529]

Man, this is incredible, over the time pass you make your songs more sentimental and for me that was great. You give us the words that we can't say and put them in a beautiful song. Thanks for all the things you do Tom, you are amazing.

[@PurryCat]

Wow. (wiping eyes) Powerful, beautiful

[@AceHardy]

👑

[@oitsamy]

Wow.

[@theoherzog6328]

He's a damn genius, every single song is a masterpiece and the videos are just art. Love it! Greets from Germany

[@amycoddy]

This is so utterly beautiful. A true masterpiece of intimacy and love.

[@Karincl7]

I miss my dad ❤

[@Fortuntato96]

I've met you on the street in London today with your daughter and that just made my day! Thank you for your songs Tom!

[@nikapletersek7673]

this is beautiful and so heartwarming. i lost my mum almost a year ago and almost everything i know how to do is because of her. and i am so grateful she passed so much knowladge onto me in my short life. some people leave such strong mark on you and they are forever missed and forever loved once they are gone.
