I hate bullies and wish they are extinct but they're real so just everybody ignore them and they'll go away:( I feel sad for all of the kids who get bullied :(
I am 56 years young !!!!! OHHHGH WOW , It was after school , I was dumb too.;!!! Do NOT like most of comments that people have written, ., they jusr don't get it!!!!!! But trust me I do. xx
The whisteing is neat! :D When I heard this song for the first (I;m american I live in washington) I froze, and stared into space, I'm not rude, but I could be nicer. This is just a refernce book, when I'm about to say something mean, I usually just start to sing this song. My mom and I fight alot, and this song is what keeps me from fighting back
im friends with her manger, and ive met her a few times and she performed where i live and she sang tht song but b4 she sang it she told the crowd what it was about and after i asked her if she could tell me about it and she did :)
i prefer the acoustic version to this song and have just found out KMH won songwriter of the year for the strong lyrics to this.the animator also should have been rewarded coz if u watch the clip with no sound the msg gets across even stronger.tissue plz sumbodee :-(((
wow like you never did things when you were a kid you regret, I'm only 19 and i already regret a bunch of stuff did. That's why we learn from them, try to make better decisions in the future (if we're truly sorry and regret making them). thats what this song is about.
um because i was a KID stupid ass! we're not born with a sense of wrong and right, we learn as we go, that's what CHILDHOOD is all ABOUT!! and the fact you think your perfect just tells me your a total dousche anyway.
@sabrina20093 firstly, im a guy. secondly, im a virgin. and thirdly, I have a bachelors degree in Education, I've studied human lifespan, development and learning. we're born with nothing really more than basic reflex and instinct (to simplify it), and we learn values, morals and develop an understanding of what's right and wrong from our environment and surroundings throughout life. I was one of those kids that got picked on and had no friends, and even I understand this. grow up.
Ive been both the bully and the victim in this song. Maybe thats why this song deeply moves me. Ive made successful attempts to apologise to a couple of people/friends who i treated badly back in school. Although when i apologised they dismissed it saying i needn't apologise, for me it was the principal of it, and to clear my guilty conscience. I feel alot better having done it.
sad part about this song is thats its probably too late and too much damage has been done, its a nice gesture, this might sound harsh but thats all it can be this far down the track
Due to some of her other guy-bashing songs, I somehow feel she's just shedding crocodile tears here. She's ok as a singer, but her target audience seems to be the romantically self-righteous, usually women.
I like this song too. How many people can relate to this? Bullies are the pitts and sad people who have issues of their own taking it out on innocent people. Good song Kate. I love how you've put it together. Something sad about it yet a lovely tune.
James reminds me of me cept where i live these days theres some kind of acceptance in people like me and the "popular" are beginning to become us. Guys who give crap generally end up with some kinda of karma dick in the ear :)
I am 65 years young & I adore how this sad but common incident has been told. To all the bullies out there ~ take note ~ we won't turn our backs anymore
@Detritus2099 James Isn't real , Well he is just not " This " James. She was " James " The Story of the song is about her. She was bullied in school. and her friend walked away from her when she was being bullied. and basically the song is about her but from the other persons point of view :)
@Detritus2099 James isn't a real person - it's just a story (she's said so in several interviews). In fact, she was the one who was bullied in school. It doesn't make the song any less powerful in my opinion, though.
Im in hte vid clip me and my friends did it at our school and then she chose it to be the vid it is on talking donkey called caught in the crowd it is amazing xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Hard to top for a poignant set of lyrics. This song taps into the indelible scars so many people are left with as victims and observers of bullying. Well done KMH.
