You told me to watch ‪@JamesBlunt‬ 's Monsters - you didn't tell me that this would happen: 😭😭😭😭😭! Please note, as stated in the title - this is an ANALYSIS video. That means, yes, I pause, I talk, and I go into detail. If you'd rather watch a pure reaction, there are plenty of other channels to watch.

James dad was actually dying from kidney disease & this was his tribute & farewell to his dad. Thankfully his dad received a donor kidney & is doing okay now. If this song doesn't get to you emotionally, there is something wrong with you. This song resonates with me as I was my dad's caregiver for 5 years until he passed away 4 years ago.

From what I can gather, this song was recorded exactly as we all see it. On take and no 'Auto-Tune' because James wanted everything to be 100% real, true and entirely genuine. As a former officer in the British military (like his father) James donated all the proceeds from this song to the UK charity 'Help For Heroes' who do such wonderful work for ex-servicemen and women. I defy anyone to watch this remarkable video and not feel like blubbing. We're all human after all. ❤

This year on American Idol, a young man named Iam Tongi performed this for the audition, in honor of his father who had passed away months before the auditions. Not a dry eye in the house. Then in the finals, he performed it again in duet with James Blunt; Iam was not holding it together, so James took over as needed, and at the line "You can feel my hand on your arm", he patted Iam's arm reassuringly, and Iam was able to pull it together and sing more. Amazing professionalism and compassion from James, particularly considering how emotional this song is for him. Both performances are worth a look.

It is hard to sing when you really cry. That was his Dad and at the end everyone in that room was crying except his Dad. He told them he wasn’t dead yet. If James hadn’t released this his Dad would not have found a rare kidney match and he wouldn’t still be here. A first cousins with the same name as Charles and no one knew about was the match. Charles had already donated one of his kidney’s years earlier. I love James’s work and he writes amazing songs. He is really funny in interviews and just a lovely person. I have seen another video of this with James playing the piano after he knew his Dad would live. It has nowhere near the impact of this one. For the first time I wondered how James got through this. I didn’t get to say goodbye to my Dad, he was 51. James wouldn’t allow anything to be added, just one take and no auto tune. Hid Dad did it for him to have. You can’t not feel in this song. Thank you for your reaction, I have watched it countless times and I still need tissues.

This whole video was one take, he sang this song once and once only with his dad listening. The music people wanted to auto tune it, could you believe?? His dad’s life was saved by this song, James quite poetically and literally chased the monsters away ❤ Hugs from England 🫶🏼

It is his father. They were both in the British Army which teaches to be very stoic and in control of your emotions. His father was very ill with kidney disease and did not have long left unless they found a doner. They eventually did, a distant relative came forward after hearing the song. After the video, everyone was upset until his father deadpanned “why is everyone crying? I’m still here!”

This song is very special not just because of the meaning but for James blunt being able to share and show so much of his emotions. I’m not sure if you know but both James and his father served in the military and as you know the military pretty much tries to erase the emotional expression aspect out of its troops. So for James to be able to share his emotions not just with us but to his father and right in-front of his father (the video is James fathers first reaction to the song) is a huge deal as it was probably something very unnatural for James to do. Ofc the meaning is quite self explanatory but I’m sure you know it by now but just in case. Yes that’s James blunts father, when this video was recorded his father was suffering from kidney failure and didn’t seem like he’d make it in a few months. So james wrote this song for him obviously saying what he needed and saying his goodbyes. Fortunately this song gained massive traction upon its release and a distant cousin heard it and decided to get tested for compatibility. That distant cousin ended up being a match and james father was able to have a healthy kidney donated and is still alive today. So in a way this song that was supposed to be a goodbye and an ending chapter towards james father actually served as the hope and reason behind his father’s miracle. Beautiful story and a happy ending to a beautifully sad song. Great reaction and like most of the people that listened to this song, no need to apologize for expressing the emotion James tried to perceive through the song!

This song was originally a poem written by James sister for their father, James sang it for their dad and asked if it was OK to release, this is the song that saved Charlie's life as a cousin saw it and got tested and was a match, the lyric, I'm not your son and you're not my father comes from their time in service together where they wouldn't let family ties affect their service and they used to say this

Just found this song. Lost my dad a little over a month ago. We basically had this conversation. I took him to the hospital thinking it was going to be just like every other time. Instead, 3 days in the doctors told him there was nothing they could do. They gave him 2 to 4 to live upon discharge. They kept him in the hospital long enough for family to come from out of state. He passed 7 days after discharge. I love you dad.

There's two [arts to this: 1) James Blunt's dad, Charles, had previously donated one of his kidneys. so when he himself got Stage 4 kidney disease, it was terminal for him unless he got a transplant of his own, because it was the only one he had left. 2) James had pleaded for a donor for his dad while doing press for the album on which Monsters was the fourth released single. At some point, an extended family member saw the music video and was so moved that they got tested and confirmed to be a match. So his dad got a kidney, and has been in successful recovery since 2020.

Never had a real good Relationship to him for the first 35 years. Use every minute, that's left with your parents!!!! M

The wonderful thing about this song is that after it was released, a distant relative discovered the history behind it and as a result came forward to see if his kidney was suitable to transplant. It was and James’ father is alive and well today.

😪 Juliet, I've seen this video before and was very moved - your reaction, though, did have me in tears. I'm amazed how you still managed to give your usual excellent analysis while being so emotional 👏 I saw a quote recently which said something like "authenticity always beats quality", which ties in with what you said about his focus on expressing the emotion of the song rather than the technical delivery. There is a young UK artist called Ren Gill who is gaining recognition for his impactful performances and videos which demand the audience's attention. It would be great to get your reaction to his work. His breakthrough piece is called "Hi Ren" where he bravely delivers his mental struggles for the world to see and gives a powerful, sympathetic message. Don't worry, it won't make you cry like this one 😁. Even if you choose not to react to it on your channel, I'm sure you would find it very interesting and inspiring.

I stayed strong, didn't shed many tears. Went down to the river where he and I used to fish and lost my shit in private.

So he's at home, trying to get on with things as 83 year olds tend to. I'm nowhere ready for saying goodbye but I have to prepare. Every morning I wake up to think mum will call me to say he's gone overnight. Having a big big cry today. Marko from nightwish fame did "the voice of my father" & that one got me even before dad was really unwell.

The core message I get from the lyrics and this performance is a child saying to the parent "It's OK to relax, you did your job well so now it's my turn". James and his father were both officers in the military. The phrase "We're just two grown men saying goodbye" was what his father said to him when they deployed to different parts of the world. It was his father's way of acknowledging the fact his son was now a man. James has turned it around to reassure the parent that he is accepting that role.

James wanted this to be 100% real and authentic. It is his father This was the first time he'd sung it to his dad, who had only recently been diagnosed with stage 4 kidney cancer and was not expected to survive, although they did eventually find a donor and he made it. Both James and his dad are former officers in the British military. First time I heard this was 3 days after my Dad passed away and it broke me I lost my Dad 4 years ago this August after he fell and hit his head sadly he didn't survive it caused a bleed on his brain I sadly never had the chance to tell him I loved him and that hurts but i know he is at peace now.

I'm sure other dads have already said it, but here goes: Your connection, as a daughter and mother, is real, and you relate because you are human and someone else's sadness is haunting. However, as a son and father, the connection speaks to what every boy, either consciously or unconsciously hopes for in life...the approval and pride of their father and it also makes the connection for every father who desires to leave such progeny in the world which honors him for a job well done. Great video, thank you, and I send my love to you!

Like I listened to it everyday, and I enjoyed every tunes of it. Not knowing my Lovely mother was on the way out too. Yes, some how in spirit while I enjoyed the very meaningful byes in this song, my Mother would die May 2021. I realized the separation was already happening in spirit as I was alone here in the Lock down of all countries of the world. Chasing the Monster is my favorite song.

His father who appeared in the video needed a kidney transplant and while he was in the hospital James’ sister wrote a poem and when James read it he wanted to make a song about it changing a few words to portray it as though it was from James’ prospective also the video was done in one take and James also refused to have auto tune so you can hear all the imperfections and raw emotion in his voice

He has many popular songs from the early/mid 2000's. He's a very established artist. This song was extremely emotional and true to his life but he was already a popular artist beforehand. its just that this new age of youtube is discovering him. He has a lot of very well known songs like You're Beautiful, Goodbye My lover, jsut 2 examples, which were from the early 2000s but we all heard them on the radio at the time.

James’s father was a previous kidney donor and then his remaining kidney was failing. When this video was done he was in stage 4 kidney disease but a match could not be found. After this video was released a distant cousin came forward and was a match. He donated a kidney and James’s father is doing well. The man in the video is James father

This is the first time I have been able to watch this video the whole way through. The fact that I now know his father survived made it easier to watch, but not much! This is right up there with Johnny Cash's 'Hurt', and Sinead O'Connor's 'Nothing Compares to You', for raw emotion. James is actually a very affable, pleasant, self-effacing and personable fella in real life. But this shows his power to perform from the heart.

Something else too, it was all done in one take as James wanted the complete raw emotion & at the end as you can imagine, the whole place was full of crying sobbing people. Charles looked up & said, "hey, what's with the tears, I'm still here". Hahaha

A book could be written analyzing the lyrics of this song, but the phrase "I've folded your clothes on the chair" hits deeply for me. It is such a tender, loving act, prosaic on its surface but profound in its intimate connection. This is what my wife and I do when we have our granddaughters by us. After we bath them and put them in their pajamas, we fold their play clothes and put them on the nightstands beside their bed.

James was teary -eyed when he was singing to his dad with chronic kidney disease , who was a donor himself and in need of kidney transplant ...Helpless ,a miracle happened , a match donor came by and until now his dad is still alive and doing well ...There's no conflict between him and his dad ..Both of them were retired from the British Army .. I admire James so much ,for being a good professional singer , but until now so underrated ... Thanks !!!❤🤞

Hello from Australia, this song gets to anybody and everybody who has ever lost or is going to loose a loved one. Love your honest opinion and reaction. If you ever have the time , I would love to introduce you to John Farnham. He is an Aussie legend and has a voice and personality like no other. I would love if you would react to John Farnham and the Melbourne symphony orchestra (live) songs, - Beatles cover, help - ACDC cover, it's a long way to the top - playing to win -your the voice These songs are totally epic, the whole concert is epic, his whole career is epic, it's definitely a rabbit hole you need to travel down. You won't regret it, I promise 😁 👍👍👍❤️🇦🇺

Absolutely correct - John Farnham was the most unknown top singer in the world outside of Australia.
