machines (very rough) READ DESCRIPTION PLEAAASE

[ellarosenwyn]

every time I listen to this song, it touches me in ways I never thought were in me. For two years this song has been the connection to me and my friend, an angel. I miss him so much, but this comforts me deeply. ♥

[ITZkait]

I wish you recorded this for your EP. It's incredible <3

[coleycinders]

fell in love with this song like a year ago and then forgot what it was called so ive spent all morning scanning through you tube and i fuinally found it :)

[r0k3r101]

This song brings me to tears every single time

I have so much admiration and respect for you

[MileyFanFrankie]

'Music is everybody's possession. It is only publishers who think that people own it.'

Just listen to it and love it <3

[aleksitsu]

[lilteejy]

[megleee]

One of my oldest friends just had a beautiful baby boy on the 13th of January, last night she had a stroke from a brain aneurysm. She had brain surgery immediately and has been in an induced coma since last night. This song is exactly how I feel right now, please keep her in your thoughts in prayers. She's a wonderful human being who has been through enough. She doesn't need this.

[coleycinders]

Thats is such a beautiful song seriously amazing i love the bridge part that say "platers and stiches can never heal these breaks" Amazing voice too!!

[LookAtThat14]

can i just say... yeah your a good singer but why take other peoples verses... such as shannon saunders? this verse...now i dont wanna fall asleep

dont wanna close my eyes

incase i dont wake up

i've realised that life can throw some things

at you when you least expect to change your mind

but i wont hide.

If you want to be a songwriter then do your own work and dont rely on other people to do it for you. Thanks.

[fizzbangwhizzpop]

@LookAtThat14 she has credited her in the description for this and since it's such a peersonal song she probably wanted words that were exactly right

[beckaish]

@LookAtThat14 Shes wrote many amazing songs by herself, shes borrowed a couple of lines from shannons song, once. As you look above shannon is aware and she's flattered, also as this is for her friend in a coma i think you can cut her some slack, unless you have no heart. Thanks.

[jordanlintonmusic]

@LookAtThat14 "dont wanna fall asleep don't wanna close my eyes" sounds a bit familiar.... oh wait... it's aerosmith!

settle down, so she borrowed some lyrics and credited the original artist big deal?

do you troll ever cover saying the same thing? she's not passing them off as her own so what is there to be bothered about?

[glessiex]

i also need the chords x

could someone convert them?

[cherrysplat]

would i be able to know the chords please? as i have a story very similar to this and i believe that if i play this song for everyone it will be something sweet, ♥

[LiveLoveTiax]

@mrguitar2792 DID YOU NOT JUST READ WHAT @Lejinn SAID?! THEY'VE GOT A FRICKEN TUMOR IN THEIR BRAIN AND YOUR SAYING IT WASNT GOD WHO HELPED HIM SURVIVE!? YOU CANT SURVIVE SOMETHING LIKE THAT WITH LUCK OPEN YOUR EYES AND HAVE SOME RESPECT MATE.

[mrguitar2792]

@LiveLoveTiax then why doesn't everybody with a tumor survive? and why doesn't everybody with a tumor fall over playing football so that they need to go into hospital, consequently leading to their tumor being found and treated. science and modern medicine saved your life, that and a lucky coincidence which lead to the tumor being found, but not everyone is that lucky. call it fate if you want, but not god.

[Lejinnn]

This thing that happened to your friend is god. He is looking for you, and who is beside you. I have already been blessed like this, on 18th april/2009 I fell on the floor playing soccer, then I went to the hospital beacause of it and I found a tumor in the part of memory in my brain. We all are luck, god is beside us all. And you're really blessed! You're beautiful and your voice is amazing! :) xx

[mrguitar2792]

@Lejinnn Don't preach. God and luck are two separate things.

[7xomelissamaexo7]

@mrguitar2792 hmm. 

[BarneyvxD]

Wish i knew the chords:( this is such an amazing song... Fair play to You and Shannon for writing such a lovely song for him=]

[fitzybwfc2311]

just bought your ep, its rate good and a bargin @ £1.80 although the lyrics of machines isn't on it and it upset me! lol Keep calm and carry on

[HorsegirlAlex]

I would love to learn this song! if your willing to share the chords that woud be awsome? but if you want to keep them personal for obvious reasons, then its no bother :) x

[TheUpsidedownsmile]

"Even though you're near us, you just feel so far away"

This song is so beautiful, it made me tear.

You are so talented Miss Aplin, I cannot wait to go to your concerts or buy your CDs.

[YvonneChalet]

I LOVE this song! I desperately wish you would put it on iTunes! I'd really enjoy it if you did. Or if you put it on your site for download! Please?! (:

[musiclover191]

Wow this song is AMAZING I listened to it last night and now its been stuck in my head all day today... lol =D

I realy like your lyrics, and its cool how much you changed the sound of your friends lyrics to mach this song =]

[OnlyDrilla]

awh, i hope your friend Jay is okay now.

& this is a lovely song :] <3

[OhSoEllaa]

I love this song so much... i keep on playing it over and over again... its soo good! lol

[EilzHad]

beautiful song. I am so sorry about your friend. i lost one of my best friends in a car crash, it's horrible how it takes something so serious to open your eyes to the dangers of the real world :( 

[xTinyAngel15x]

Amazing song :) I listen to yours and shannons songs all the time and i love you both and i dont think theres anything wrong with you using some of her lyrics, its not like you used all of her lyrics and said they were yours so i think all of the stupid people on here who are accusing you of stealing should just listen to the song and stop going on about you alledgly stealing lyrics :) how is your friend now? xx

[livedpalive]

this is beautiul, you're voice is stunning.



[Turtler117]

Huge respect to you for this song... I used to play rugby myself and I always had that slight worry in the back of my head that something bad could always happen to one of my team mates.... I hope your friend is making good progress

[darklightning539]

damn....this song....just touches the soul. thats really nice that you wrote this song for your friend. i wouldnt be surprised if you went big. you should really record this in a studio, because i would totally buy this mp3.

[laurennpaiige]

Is jay okay now? :) xxxxxxx

[shayfface]

this is so amazing.

[Gaberrz]

@xLeoxG i dont delete my subscribers that's ridiculous... and i also haven't STOLEN anything. to STEAL something would be to take it and say it's mine. i didn't do that. i've given credit to shannon and put links to her sites. and shannon's song has gained a lot of views from me doing this. It's nothing to do with you, i know shannon personally and we get on fine.

[Poppii33Poptart]

your beautiful

i adore you

♥

[earthtoanna]

but your still freakin amazing at guitar and singing haha. JUST SAYING.

[earthtoanna]

go look at her why cry video. she said you didn't ask her, and you just took them. you can't just take lyrics and give credit. that's like taking a famous song and pretending it's your song JUST cause you gave credit. that's not right. come up with your own lyrics, don't steal someone elses.

[jasmineraye]

@earthtoanna

Not being funny or anything, but fuck loads of famous singers have lyrics from other peoples songs. You don't see them bickering over youtube about it. It's pathetic. If anything, the girl she 'stole' them from should be happy enough to know someone thought they were amazing and wanted to use them in a different song.

[earthtoanna]

@jasmineraye yeaaaaah TOTALLY hahaha.

[Shannooonx]

@jasmineraye LOL. just reading these comments. i actually said i was flattered that gabby liked my verse so much that she even used it personally to her but someone asked me on my video if she asked me if she could use my lyrics and truthfully i said no as she didn't. i didnt say i had a problem with that as i know gabby personally. people just find any faults they can on this sort of thing and try and cause trouble. but yeahhh just thought i'd have my say as you're all having yours. :)

[Gaberrz]

@Shannooonx ahaha bloody love you shannon. i love how it's affecting their lives more than ours hahaa x

[Shannooonx]

@Gaberrz love you too my darlinnn' x

[Shannooonx]

@Gaberrz love you too my darlinnn' :) x

[jasmineraye]

@Shannooonx I'm not saying it offensively, if anything I'm defending you both :)

[hiphopbabe2008]

@earthtoanna im not hating or anything. just wondering where shannon said that gabrielle took her lyrics without asking? coz i just watched that video + i couldn't see or hear her saying that anywhere :S

[earthtoanna]

@hiphopbabe2008 like people commented on the video, and she replied. it's probably where it says "users comments" or something like that. can't remember what it says exactly. but people asked her if she let this girl use them, and she said no and all that stuff.

[dddunce]

@Gaberrz she said u DIDNT ASK HER if u could use her lyrics

[UpAgainstxTheWall]

my friiiend just suffered a heart attatck from a heart condition on sunday.

yesterday he managed to give the thumbs up and open his eyes when his name was called.

[MileyFanFrankie]

Hey(: My sister (fizzylizzie710) keeps playing this song on her ipod and when she first sarted to listen to your music you were the only thing she talked about! You are really talented. The fact that you've never had any music lessons is miraculous. You really are amazing. <3. Oxox

[xRandomxElmoXD]

@MileyFanFrankie it's on itunes?

[DarkAngel046]

if you go on lime wire and search her name, theres alot of songs :)

[MileyFanFrankie]

Ermm nope, but she found a video to mp3 converter so she has it on her ipod(: It would be GREAT if it was on itunes though! :p

[twistyfish]

this is a beautifully written song. shows you really do care about him. i hope he does recover. the fact hes blinking in itself is a very positive step.

[SuperBrightOrange]

I absolutely love this song! I first heard it yesterday and know all of the lyrics already! <3

[LUCYxFACE]

this such an incredible song

the girl that covered this can't sing this song nearly as well as you :)

I hope he gets better soon.

[UglyxMuffin]

WOW. This is amazing. I know you've probably gotten a million and a half messages saying that but you really are!!

[LynnLoveSausage]

This is a beautifully written song, I love it. And you're voice is really pretty :) I would have liked to see your face, but that's okay, whatever way you wish to record. it's still amazingly lovely either way.

[elsiebear555]

[charleymusic]

my opinion on this song is probably minor, but gabzipop, i think it's beautiful. and i think it's already perfect. the lyrics are incredible, so moving, touching, brought me near tears. the melody, is so soft, and so gorgeous. and i know he'd appreciate this song so much. you're amazing, please never forget that. i love you.

[Metalhead743]

[bethanyhearne]

[Dirtycard]

u must get into a studio. get a few sesion musicians and record a demo.  get a guy to do music vids( or a student) and launch it on youtube. it will boom. Capish

[Dirtycard]

i like the song. good structure

[xrazorbladesx]

I know this must be a really hard song to sing. I wrote one for my cousin Jamie who died back in february suddenly at 3 years old, and it hurts like crazy...

But I don't suppose you'd be playing this when you play at the barfly in camden? =] I watch this video for hours on end I swear. It is beautiful.

I'll be buying my ticket tomorrow and seeing you there either way =]

I'm so sorry about your friend:[ I started crying hen I listened to this. because my very best friend has been going through medical problems, and I don't always take her problems seriously. this song has kind of helped me realize that I should cherish her before it's too late for me to realize that.
