Sara Bareilles - A Safe Place to Land (Live at the Village) ft. John Legend

[@laurelmccoy3046]

I am a survivor of domestic violence, and left 1 year ago in a minivan with almost nothing... This song touched me more than I can say. I held my 4 babies tight and jumped from that window, and this song embodies the fear and the freedom, all at once. Thank you so much for this.

Grammy's deciding body really doesn't know what they're doing. Two decades in and she still don't have an award. Nominations is not enough to recognize her contributions, work and passion for music. Beats me, why do people who can't sing even half as good as her have rewards and she don't. Maybe in another lifetime Sara, when everybody can hear what your heart is saying, till then, you will always be one of the unrecognized bests.

I was 25 when I got out I have suffered ptsd for years I have not even dated in 39 years fear of going thru it again . I want to say how much this song has helped me and encouraged me to take a leap of faith and I'd find a safe place to land .

I do immigrant justice work full time, and I knew by the time the first chorus ended that this was about immigrants on the border and I LOST IT. I'm a puddle of tears. When John sang "imagine being in a building on fire and told to stand still." That's EXACTLY what we're doing to people seeking refuge. We must and can do better.

It is a good metaphor for refugees, but it also quite literally refers to those (mostly immigrants) who died in the Grenfell Tower fire in London a couple years ago.

I just recently heard this song for the first time, and it touched me to the depth of my heart. I am so thankful for all the times people have given me a safe place to land. Having been raised by an alcoholic father who was brutal when drunk, so many times, my sisters and I would huddle together and scream while he beat our mother. We were innocent little children who were forced to deal with grown-up issues our entire little baby lives. It was only after becoming a grandmother and witnessing the innocence of my grandson that I realized what a scared little child I was. I suspect my sisters felt the same. We were each other's very first safe place to land.

@Franco Cavalli Shame on you Franco. In 2016 enough American voters did with Donald Trump as my ancestors did in the 1930s with Hitler: They chose to follow xenophobic fear-mongering, bragging, and lies. And elections have consequences. Donald Trump and his cruel administration has brought unbearable damage and the heart-wrenching suffering to the weakest of the weak, people seeking shelter. This touching song moves me to tears because it reminds me of how low we can sink, torturing those who deserve our comforting protection. And it is a reminder: We all can do better. You can do better, Franco! Life is about love and decency. Life is NOT what you see in the Trump propaganda channels, parroting his hateful lies every day. Hope you manage to escape that evil parallel universe. All the best to you!

I know this song was written with the immigrants at the border who are running from war and poverty but living in a loveless marriage this song touches my heart so much.

I'm so glad that even though most current music is over layered crap that there are still great singers like Sara and John

[@lordvoldemort4942]

This deserves so many more views than it has. The world needs her.

I remember when I was younger asking my mom for an iTunes gift card so I could purchase the “Little Voice” album. Bareilles captured my attention at an age in which I couldn’t even relate to and or comprehend the complexities in her writing. She is truly an incredible and inspired artist and deserves to be put on display to marvel. I’m so proud of her and so thankful she released more music.

[@ardentlycherrie2468]

Me toooo! I have been in love with her work since Little voice

[@julianderas4500]

It's literally frustrating how underrated she is....

[@stevenh83]

Sara thank you for this song in todays world its hard to find that safe harbor. It brings awareness of the feelings immigrants from everywhere go through looking for a better tomorrow for thier children.

[@gnomelol7582]

Yeah....

I'm sure so many of us are in this same mental state! No matter I love this song

[@lynnmarieanderson1744]

Such a beautiful song. I've recently become totally estranged from my family, my dad is abusive and narcisstic and I had to go no contact. I thank my ex boyfriend who still cares about me for giving me a safe place to land for now. So much for family. A total stranger I met online helped me a lot too.

my heart has been torn into a million pieces

Hello! I am mom to a daughter with Down syndrome. She has been quite unwell since the summer and we are on a long journey to treat autoimmune encephalitis. One of her symptoms includes Catatonia. She was always an active athlete and has always loved music and dance so it has been heartbreaking to see her decline. She fell in love with Sara when she performed in the JCSS Rock Opera (she LOVES musicals)....THIS SONG has brought her to life. She has danced for the first time in MONTHS. She has moved and shown emotion more than we have seen in soooo long. We have sat and watched and cried. We now play the song at her physio sessions and she dances there too. It has unlocked so many things for her during this immensely difficult time when she is stuck, when her brain causes her to stumble and fall or not be able to move at all. I cannot tell you what this song, and these days ALL of your music means to her and to us. We are without words at the magic touch it has brought to Kaleigh's life when we need it the most. Thank you thank you thank you. We will be fans for life!

[@bethbb9736]

Blessings on you and your daughter

[@catagu943]

My goodness. There are no words to describe the beauty of this song. It's so meaningful and moving. These humans are a gift to the world.

Love this as we come into darkness into light here in Ireland. "Surely someone will reach out a hand " Be the light in the dark for someone who needs it. Dont judge its ok not to be ok.

[@bethbale956]

I wish I could "like" this more than once!

[@marybless21]

One of the most heartbreaking songs by two of the most talented voices of our generation.

I just realized this was posted on my birthday during one of the hardest years of my life.

[@wangskitchenn]

Will always be a Sara fan. I was here before a thousand views.

[@FirestarterIT]

Sara* ;)

I used to love the melody when I was younger, now that I’m an adult and experienced life, the lyrics here continue to tear me up. Yes! We all need help, and let’s all be that hand a hopeful stranger may need!
