Nerina Pallot - 'Sophia'

[iliveibreathe]

I love, love this song already!

[garymakin01]

Lovely.

[MsSpanky8]

I love this song, though I prefer the less pop like version of the song.

[azimangoez]

she came into my bathroom and sang for me too! i was on the shitter then the door opened and she started singing the crap out of me!

[MrInmyopinion]

Just re-discovered Narina after seeing her on TV promoting her new album. I used to love this song it should have been a hit for her in the UK. They must have messed up the release dates record companies are so strange. Beautiful video

[MrJFlashify]

She is pronouncing Sofia as 'SO-FIRE'. Isn't it pronounced 'SO-FEE-A'?

[hAlexander100]

SO-FIRE is the right pronounciation of Sophia... it's the upper class way of pronouciating it...

[Bellairex]

i heard this song on while i was at wrk, and i jus had 2 listen 2 it, <3 it x

[Thelmcguinness]

Whaaaat... she fully came into your school to sing??

How did that happen :O

[elandia2995]

She came to my school and sung this song today =D she was awsome!!

[kookiegirl111]

SHE CAME TO MY SCHOOL TOO!!! AHH!!! :P xx

[beesdad]

'sang', not 'sung'. Ask your English teacher!

[johanneskarlgudjohns]

Five years ago I heard this song for the last time and today I noticed the song on the radio again. Finally I've found it after a long search!

[sparksfly1013]

She sounds like she's saying 'r' because she is. If you listen to the lyrics, she says 'its a fire, its a fire, i cannot put out.' She said in an interview that she was putting a spin on the title of the song so that it would be original. 'Sophia' sounds like ' ...'s a fire'. a bit of original slang I guess. I love it! This song is just brilliant.

[LaraRoseCostello]

yeh,. i noticed that, its quite cool

My cremation song lol x

[sofarockseverybody]

ich heiße Sophia (:

[cardigans98]

ahhh. i forgot how beautiful this song is.

[BobbyM888]

wow this is the first time ive heard her and shes great love this song already :D

[plant1994]

bellissima...

[all4bne]

i love this song!! i wish it was sold on itunes sooo bad!!!!!!!

[FreshDFan95]

this song is great!!

[charliestarr]

ha my dinner lady used to call me sapphire but i'm known as sophia round work and to my family sophie oh the joys of having a name that everyone can miss use, its confusing to a girl

[krobesammie]

this song reminds me of "twilight"... the book version...haha

[clarren0912]

I'm been searchin 4 this song hi & lo!! I thot its called Sapphire!! haha...finally found it...luvly song esp the chorus! =)

[equisage]

lol thats probably because she's British. Her accents puts a bit of and "r" at the end of the Sophia.

[carrie724]

she feels like alanis morissette !

[Smileylennard]

wow my bnames Sophia as well.

HAAAAAAAAH WHAT A LIE it's really Lennard.

Ok that's also a lie. It's Caitlin but sure.

This is nooooo way near as giood as the almbum verison.

[TheRationalRant]

Wow my name's Harry... whoopdy fucking doo!

[mariahdear]

Harry, I feel like we need to be best friends. I just laughed pretty hard.

:)

[SimAtlantida]

i love this song and this video!!!

[seguerreroc]

jajajaja.. WOW.. there's a lots of SOPHIAs :P jajaja

and yessss... that is also my name :P jajaja

But I live in Mexico, so.. I don't have so many troubles with the pronunciation like you girls :) jaja

Well, really nice song ;)

:D

[selina354]

soo everyone here is called sophia? LOOOL

[sophiasanne]

MY name is Sophia and my cousins call me soapy dish water

[sofiaberglind]

Mines Sofia. and people always spell it sophia and my teacher would write my name as "soph" on my papers which really pissed me off.

[bubel2heven]

My name is sophia to but ppl call me sophie :P I love this name

[usb916]

Love Love Love this song...

So rrromantic !

Nerina your the best...xxx

[mackfeck]

kind of takes your breath away. excellent

[mateo2k6]

Really adore this song!

[mrpuppiedawgz]

my name is sophia, but not pronounced that way. ppl mistake my name 4 sofiah. :P

[crycrimsonblood]

I know people do that to me as well! I'm called Sophia Its said like sophie but with an "a" at the end!

Grrrr it just annoys me!

[SupaSoccerGeek]

Same :) my names Sophia same as yours tons of people call me sophiya

[crycrimsonblood]

I just gave up getting people to say my name proparly , so I just say my name is sophie, I takes the hassle out of it!

[SupaSoccerGeek]

thats wierd its the exact same with me o.o

i have another youtube acc called Sophie1928 :D

[hAlexander100]

guess what snap all though Sophia is only my 3rd name so dont really have the trouble of poor Pronotation..

[candyisfun]

I <3 this song

[LanaRose01]

I do prefer the version on the album. It's just the piano.

Goes with the lyrics SO much more.

I actually love this song. Sing it every day when i get home in my room :D

Plan to sing it in a school concert at some point!

[GracieLue2]

I actually like this version much better. I think to make such an instrumental version requires a lot more skill than just piano,l but of coarse I love both.

[trueperfectionist]

love this song

[XxEmoBloodFairyxX]

I'm so proud to be from her island :)

I've met her like a million times and it's really re-assuring to know that some one from Jersey can make it as a singer

[Shaunyrawrs]

exactly, i was so into glam metal i never thought id get into other stuff, then all of a sudden, im back and forth between two different types.

you think exactly how i think.

[nerdyangel91]

awesome way to pronounce a girl's name, sounds like "sapphire"

[TheSurprisedActor]

The symbolisis of this.. freaking astounding.

Love Nerina Pallot, been my fave since Christmas 2006.

[rumerlovesyou]

I love this song she looks divine but the burning piano is really distracting.. I keep thinking oh look, fuck the piano is on fucking fire! quick get a hose...

[12sophl15]

wunderschön♥

[TheRationalRant]

I usually listen to Black Metal, but this song is absolutely astounding. Such beauty and brilliance. I'm playing this song with my girlfriend at a show soon.

[XsweetguyX]

big difference between black metal and this but well i also to quit opposite music sometimes

[Shaunyrawrs]

yeah exactly. i was the same except i listen to glam metal. i was shocked by how good she is.

[V0udka]

I listen to grindcore, and since 2006 this song is still amazing me

[Shaunyrawrs]

it just goes to show, even if you listen to genres completely different, you can still enjoy other genres.

[V0udka]

That's so true, man. I dont care if people make fun of you when you listen to music that they think does not go well with your image, I mean, why would I deny my ears the pleasure? It did take me some time go feel good about picking up that attitude, but it comes with age too I guess : )

[jibbajabba22]

such a beautiful song!

[itsmesoap]

i dont know why but this makes me feel like im sleeping on a cloud i love it my names sophia but its so-fee-ahhh

lol

s x

[m0iti1794]

nice song

[GracieLue2]

ooooo i love disssss

[marzipan08]

New album is coming out later this year, possibly September

[VictorianDollParty]

Really bird :) whered you hear that

I would heart that. x~*

[marzipan08]

Her new official website is undergoing construction, but there is a mailing list you can sign up to. Apparently the first few people to sign up got an automated message saying the album would be out in September, but when I signed up it had changed to 'later this year'

[jaleosovip]

New album, when ??

[shokoshika]

she reminds me a lot of Regina Spektor but a little bit lighter and fairytale style

[readandreview]

Such a warm and soft song. Love it! <3

[semisonicTV]

Love this song!!!

[MizzyBee123]

[eeesh08]

amazing song:)

[3Chrs4SwtRvng]

i absolutely adore this song. its so pretty, but the version that i have only has piano(no strings or drums like this one), and i think this version is so much better.

[tom9987]

i prefer the pinao only one :(

[StephenBagley247]

I agree, this is the first time i've heard this version and it just sounds wrong

[KatalinaBanina]

I agree but I'm happy to listen to both versions. Plus this music video is cool.

[Jessica1988Sunshine]

[DragonEmperorMycen]

I first heard this song on an AMV of the movie Joanna the Mad and whenever I hear it I think of the video and the actual person

[ninakamal]

I like the old version much better.

It's in the related videos, this versions a bit more "mainstream".

[vanGarbe]

Where can I fin the old version?

[BurntFeet]

The old version you're looking for is on the album 'Fires', by Nerina, obviously. This version is a re-released version of the song which was re-done in LA.

If anyone wants to know, the song was inspired by her walking in on a friend called Sophia having sex with a frenchmen in Italy. (Thanks go to Wikipedia for teh info)

[randomcousins123]

omg tht is so good hey my name is sophie

[arishimachan]

[sophresi]

[cliquegrlz4life]

[wellesley1]

[flakkanon]

2:30 to 2:55 is just amazing. bloody good vocals

[Starsurfer1988]

Amazing Song! Sophia sounds like "So fire" :)

[tuftthewhale]

it's a clever play of words between so-phia and 'sa fire

[sarah70000000]

Shet up man, i really love it!

[gwilliamsmusic]

your such a racist badger

[crazypunkygirl]

oooo .. mighty boosh line .. love it .. and lve the song 2 x

[xXiMikeyXx]

[whoseliner44]

[Hegder]

This is a different version to the album. Where is it from?

[beatnikko]

Superb song, one of my favourites. Thank you for posting 14th floor.

[skindoggy1988]

beautiful woman...beautiful song...hey if it can touch me, a hiphop lover in college, then i'm pretty sure it can touch most people!

[megancunning]

Love this song only found it recently from my cuzz playin it too me on the guitar she can reach high notes i actually think she sings it betta than nerina lol :P the video is kinda weird but she is very talented to reach those high notes :D xxx Merry Xmas love megan

[MaidOfOrleans1431]

Is that a joke?

[pithyperz]

i sooo love this song! gah.

[GracieLue2]

I love the name sophIA, not sophEA. I feel like the emphasis is supposed to be on the on the I. Such a beautiful song. by the way.

[jnjb73]

I think it might also be a play on the words 'it's a fire', as she follows it with the words 'I'm burning, I'm burning' and 'that I can't put out.' And there's a fire in the video. But yes, I agree. Otherwise it's sounds like the capital of Bulgaria.

[rockrebelbutterfly]

i love this song, it's so romantic and mystical. <3

i've been hearing it for about a year around the place, but i didn't know what it was until now :)

it's so beautiful and regina spektor-esque in some bits. :D

[sojabean]

my absolute fave nerina song..

[Shaunyrawrs]

i really do love this woman.

im pretty jealous of her husband!

[thisgirll]

[sophy6mendoza]

thats my song! o^^o

[YellowMarshmallowlva]

amazing lady great at piano shame she has such a rough time :( :'(

[ultrahiplibrarian]

I know! This sounds like a love triangle song to me.

[Pallot]

hate the remix, total gay. ORIGINAL FTW

[emmarizzit]

i prefer the album version with just the piano:)

suuchhh a good song though ♥

[mackfeck]

totally amazing..songs simply get no better than that

[Nonielaa]

i luvvit ♥♥♥

[pablocatwalk]

an incredible performer and a haunting video.... amazing!

[imfia]

Wy is she singing sofire?

[Flincher14]

The british say sophia like sofire. Its actually suppose to be pronounced that way.

[imfia]

Well, I'm from Denmark.

But my British family pronounce my name sophia and not sofire?

[Schpwuette]

I'm british, and I know a sophia.

(rather than a sofire...)

[poipoiop]

what?... I've never seen a fellow brit say sofire instead of Sophia...i say so-fee-ya..

sofire sounds kinda biblical..

[MartiniTali]

i think someone said that Nerina's friend is called Sophia, and a teacher or something pronounced it like that. And anyways, it fits so perfectly pronounced so-fire. If i was a good song writer, i would change it to so-fire!

[DragonEmperorMycen]

It is biblical depending on what sect you're looking for. The agnostics, for instance mentioned a figure they reffered to as "Sophia" and there's also the Hagia Sophia in Turkey, which used to be a Christian cathedral in the dark ages.

[sarahemilies]

Sometimes artists pronounce the words differently - maybe to make it more 'comfortable' to sing to song.

[DjimiPaij]

Someone should tell reprimand her for flagrantly ignoring fire procedure

[Nonielaa]

haha lol
