joaqiun's older brother, river phoenix, was killed a while ago in an accident, this is a montage of clips from their movies. it's sad because it remembers his life and the connection the boys had, and the bond of brotherhood that was cut short. the song wasn't written for anything that i'm aware of, it just ties into the theme of this perfectly.
@paramorearemylife The video contains River and Joaquin Phoenix. They were brothers. River died when Joaquin was 19. That's why everyone is brought to tears.
amazing i still cry everytime because its so heartbreaking because they are both so beautiful and good ppl. I really wish someone would have helped river with the drugs because we lost such an amazing person and the world will never recover. No one will ever forget him.
i was crying before the artist even began singing. that was beautiful. i cant believe i havent commented this before. it has been on my favourites for ages. thankyou.
What a beautiful beautiful video. i was just listening to the recording of Joaquin's phone call to 911 that faithfull night, and it's one of the saddest things I ever listened... And watching your video somhow warmed my heart. So thanks!
Hiya! You might already know, but someone named 'nickvantartwijk' has also put this video up without crediting you. I just thought I'd let you know because its the best River/Joaquin video I've seen and you deserve all the praise for making it. x
Haha, thanks. Yeah, I suppose the title can give that impression--I just used the title of the song; I didn't give it too much thought (maybe I should've though). Glad you liked it :)
I LoVe LoVe LoVe this video! I Love the 1st clip zooming in on River as an intro then the clip from walk the line at the end. Soo brilliant and emotional.Damn you're good!
No, I don't mind. That's awesome, heh! Feel free. If you want to credit me, that'd be even cooler. You don't have to, though. I'm caitlinalicia on MySpace as well.
This video is AMAZING! All the different footage you used are great but what gets me the most is the scene from WTL! I mean how close to home is that part for joaquin! Truly amazing! River's proud of his little brother!
amazing video, extremely sad that river cant be there to watch his brother grow up and c his movies but where eva he is im sur hes lokin dwn on him. rest in peace River Jude
Thank you for making the vid, it was beautiful, I've watched it a few times and everytime, I cry. River is my idol, he was so talented and so beautiful, I love Joaq too and I know River would be so proud of his little brother, just as proud as Joaq was of him. I'm crying as I'm writing this!
Oh my GOD..............its really a great video, its lyrics, and the beat which was playing continusely in the music, create a special effects of feelings, its really strike my heart, as a writer, I found it great lyrics, with simple and beautiful video......... its made me really cry.........Naeem from Pakistan.
This video is so sad but also so beautiful! I cried a little. River was such an amazing actor and it is so sad that he is gone. Joaquin is also an amizing actor and a person. I know that if it`s a place called heaven River would be looking proudly at Phoenix smiling!
i love this video- really beautiful, nice to see river and joaquin together- even if it is in two seperate movies! such a shame-they would have been wonderful together:( x
yeah i think this is the best river compilation on here can i ask what program u use to combine photos with videos i can do one or the other but not both to the guy who put this up i have alot more photos of river and joaquin together if u want them u might want to redo this not that theres anything wrong with this one but i think this video could be even better with more joaquin river photos just send me a message ok
The song isn't about brothers.
It's a metaphor about two lovers who now feel like brothers...
I thought it was obvious.

Iris Burton was River's manager (and I think still is Joaquin's). The lady standing with them on the red carpet is Heart, their mom.
