Sea of Love by Cat Power

[KayThankYou]

Love this song..also love the movie Juno the song is in

[kurtywurty85]

Raymond, you are lovely. You remind me of Raymond from Fight Club....not you, as in your personality... but your name haha

[Lenin426599]

Touching story

[jerseygirlxox2]

Happy belated birthday! What you do is wonderful and I wish you another great year of it. x

[mdhookey]

Cat Power's version of this song always makes me feel like I've been punched in the stomach. We cannot ignore the worst moments in our lives, yet we can always learn and reflect on all that has happened. I tip my hat to you, Raymond, and hope for only the best of you in 2012.

[gabriellataminato]

I needed the google translate to read the description

God i'm so bad.

[bluebendphotography]

I Love this song!

[ReligionsACult]

I want this song to play at my fake wedding 8D

[Spradley816]

Photos were great! Keep your head up!

[jimymoo16]

I read the description. I'm just going through a break up, so truthfully, I did just want to hear the song. However, these wonderful pictures made it all the more better. Thank you

[vasoulatsiou]

you're not alone...

[stonedNcreepy]

I read your description.

And right now I'm swimming in a sea of love.

[ballzymgee]

A really good video, but I do prefer the original song much more.



[jbfanforlife49]

I didn't have to open a new tab to hear rainy mood with this, it was actually raining and some thunder outside, so I said hey why not (:

[jajajavareful]

One OF The Most Inspirational Videos Of All Time

[shaneDfan1234]

I Hope You Have A Good Life Ahead Of You Man (':

[mdmactor]

your pictures, this song, your story. beautiful. thank you for sharing. (:

[SoniaFrancine1]

" everyone and their dog has pain and i am no different". Loved your pictures. :)

[MoireRuiz]

Loveeeeeeee the description !!!

Thanks for sharing!

:)

[dirtybarry99]

Happy 40th Chan, hope you make as much great music in your next 40, as you have done in ur first 40. You are the fookin greatest >3

[Dogterror77]

This is a great cover. Gorgeous voice and dreamy strumming. Check out the Tom Waits version, too.

[andj7871]

read the description too, looking forward to your FB photos, very nice video

[XxanberliinxX]

I'm probably from the people who just do not want to hear the song, I was interested in watch the video, in this case your pictures, they're so good but I guess your description and that feeling that you felt when you wrote is the truly reason every person typed Sea of Love in the search bar, such a beautiful song btw :-)

[Froschsenki]

Why do we attach so many emotions to black and white pictures? This video would be laughable if the pictures were in color.

[nimatmartin1]

Wow, your photos are brilliant (and the ones on Facebook) and I want you to know that your not alone..Keep it up with the great photography;)

[FlameItUp313]

Thank you for the description. You helped

[811hero1]

I love you......

[deadthingdan]

How old are you now?

[CaptainPeeners]

Those words, those photographs, that music. Just...beautiful. Whoever you are who uploaded this, I honestly hope you are doing better than you were during that break-up.

[maniacmarleyy]

wonderful photographs, i actually want to be a photographer any tips???

[temarabrown]

@maniacmarleyy from someone who is a photographer - go to school or study under a master. This industry is flooded with hacks. Work on your craft for a few years before you even consider going professional. Just because you have a fancy camera doesn't guarantee you'll get anything good. And, if you do - can you do it consistently? Do you know your camera/lighting gear inside-out? Then running a business is a whole other thing to consider.

But yea this song is awesome

[stilldasayme]

Thumbs up if you're into Converge as well.

I am, and I think it makes me a balanced person.

Of course, most likely the viewers here will have no idea of who the hell I'm talking about.

[mrshayleyjamesscott2]

[mzluisvuittongucci]

BEST description EVER

[fireNmajic]

Wow this is so weird. I honestly could not tell you why I clicked on this video, or read the description...either way this has sincerely made my day. Time has a funny way of making things ok, and with just being broken up with just a few days ago I reallllllly needed to read and see this. Thank you from the bottom of my broken heart.

[mesbahe]

I am in pain ;(

[dudshumane]

Love this.

[itssosarahh]

Thank god i read the description box. This song makes me cry on its own, but your little spiel added on...

no words, really.

[Soeaen]

Tl:dr

[TheFaithywaithy]

I love this song!!!! :D

[SunnyShineStudios]

I admire your natural sense of photography so much I'm really not exactly sure what to say. The way the pictures just mix so perfectly with the music...they somehow seem to slow time. If you made a book of a these phtotgraphs I'd buy it without hesitation.

What camera do you use?

[Demonfox59]

I dont know why I'm posting this....maybe its a cry for help...I thought I was over her...I really did. God knows I tried my best to get over her. She creeped back into my chest and weighed it down again tonight...

[Yuo7766]

You helped me too. That was a sad but very beautiful story...and you're not alone :)

[loveusidiots]

I read your description because of the comment below me, and realized how right he was. I really liked your story.

[olisgirlfriend]

Hey, so... I only clicked the video to hear the song, but some kind of force in the universe made me read your description, and dude, you are great. I was kind of wondering a lot of stuff to tell ya, but... It's not necessary. You just need to know you helped me,with your story, and thanks.

[maaaruuu7]

hope you're doing okay. i like your photographs and i love taking pictures as well. i wish you the best!

[shgv48]

I did watch Juno, and I did hear this song on some random show. But, I'm glad I did. It brought me here and allowed me to hear your story. Thank you.

[loveusidiots]

Shane Dawson brought me here.

[Allisaur4422]

This song is about her fucking cat lol.

[DRF4447]

I know it's been a few days past 4 years but I love this song, but I already knew that when I clicked here. What I didn't know was how awesome your pictures were. Thanks for posting :)

[cbear013]

Did you ever get over her?

[Luanav1988]

Thanks so much for posting this. I've read your story and it looks a lot like mine. It makes me glad to know there are more people like this in this world.

[teambookwormm]

Well done :) The description really spoke volumes too. Lovely work.

[1337fearofevolution]

i used to revolve around love,and after my heart aching time after time, i realize,that sometimes things aren't meant to be yet,and that people who say they can't find love,just arent looking fully,love is all around them,from that simple gesture of opening the door, to their dog,somethings can mean the world to others,with love and grace,Raul.great pics man.=)

[keus18]

@1337fearofevolution We need more comments like this on the internet. None of this hateful stuff. 

[1337fearofevolution]

@keus18 ya some people just don't understand though =/

[kelldubz]

I've always wanted to know what instrument is being played in this song!

[roflonocro8]

@kelldubz it's an autoharp

[baylay10]

Shanedawson brought me here.(:

[giddyonupyall]

Thanks for making this video, I am slowly starting to pick up the pieces of my heart. 

[TenWhoWereTaken]

I wanted a song, I had no idea what song it was but I knew what it would feel like. I think this is that song.

[LilyBianca015]

Youre an amazing photographer, an inspiration <3

[picicdelico]

i prefer Phil Phillips version ...

Thats because this im going to see him video...

[MelonLord7]

burdge brought me here

[rootdesert]

Raymon , you have no idea how same fate we suffered , i think you are over her till now , and i hope you got better until now , but right now that i have read your words , i ... i just cant say how sad i am , its like a dagger in my chest to relive my own tragedy , its love anyway , and it really hurts

[cripplemind661]

xbox did a good job using where is my mind from the pixies with there ad

[imHEREsoSMILE]

Your writing makes me feel less alone, thank you

[SonicBLASTxD]

While Reading The Description And Listening To The Song At The Same Time Brought Me To Tears.

Absolutely Beautiful.

[Martijano]

I really have to express myself more :/ ...thank you !!

[Death69Dealer]

Beautiful photos for a beautiful song.

Thanks for sharing a piece of you, wish you all the best.

[Nebechier]

@RaymondMcCarron I am not only deeply moved but also inspired by your testament. I would like to bounce a few ideas off of you and get your opinion of some of a project im working on. If you go to Facebook, find my page (Nebechier Jones) and send me a message, I will be happy to explain to you these ideas. Just so you know that I am a real artist and not just blowing steam, I want you to check out a song I wrote for a woman that I had fallen hard for. Shortly after losing her, I became aware th

[TurtlesAreForBigKids]

Themesong of my life...

[MissTylerBlackburn]

@lynllie thank you knew I recognised it from something !

[Lynllie]

I always read the description on a video, so I really enjoyed the depth you went to explaining your inspiration, state of mind and feelings while making this. ^.^ It was well-put together and I enjoyed the photos. I myself love photography but don't have that talent, unfortunately. I am glad you found a healthy outlet; it's more important than people who don't have artistic hobbies can understand. I discoverd mine -writing- when I was 13, and I can say it literally saved my life. I wish you well

[MissTylerBlackburn]

What movie/tv show was this in ? Can anyone tell me ?

[Lynllie]

@MissTylerBlackburn It's in the movie Juno, which I believe is where 95% of visitors to this page heard it. ^.^

[camilamilla8]

perfeita !

[garima528]

I swear this song becomes a personification of how I feel some days, just for no reason...

[SMBratten845]

your story is such an inspiration, I only hope that things go better for you in the future. Don't give up! :)

[pipernineteen89]

This is scary. I'm a commercial photographer and I'm in a very similar position to you. i've been listening to Tom Waits all day to try and make myself feel better. Figured I'd hear another version of sea of love.

I feel incredibly drained and hopeless right now. but I hope things work out for you.

the both of us even.

[tommydhammer]

This song reminds me of the girl I love who hates me cos I acted like a prick. I loved her, still do, but I blew it. Whenever I look at her she looks back not with love but with hate and it kills me, break's my heart, makes me want to burst into tears. I want to tell her how I feel but I'm too scared. I'm scared I'll never meet anyone like her again. If anyone's bothered reading this please make loved ones feel special, sometimes you don't get second chances and you have to live with the pain.

[lesimodo]

@tommydhammer Hang in there, Tommy… It hurts like hell but it does eventually get better. I've been there and still suffer from it some days. This song tears me but it's wonderfully sweet and blissful…

[rollingstonecold]

I'm going to sing this to someone one day ^~^

[flameout212]

@milfshakeeeee That's a good thing though.

[milfshakeeeee]

Sent this song to the guy I love. He's been going through a lot lately. I thought it would cheer him up. His reply: gay.

[mixedberrypunch]

i want this played at my wedding. whenever that is. :) <3

[ZebIsSporadic]

There is nothing like hearing the girl you love sing this song.

Especially if she's not with you.

[64ah]

@ZebIsSporadic lol

[acruzzin]

I love this song almost as much as my wife

[junglekneck]

love, snuggles, sniffles, tickles, nibbles, bites, laughs, and tears.

[ConlangFan]

omg, this is so beautiful, almost crying for some reason.

[looktothetrees]

beautiful... thank you for sharing yourself

[MelodicProphet]

This song just makes me fall apart everytime. It makes me think about my ex who I love very much. I wrote her a song, and I put it up on my facebook and youtube. But I don't know if she'll ever see it or ever hear it. This song and the description are exactly how I feel about it. I don't need her to know I love her to continue doing it.

[helpfuu]

Happiness is extremely simple yet difficult.

Sit motionless and look inside yourself.

Be brave and you will learn everything.

Love is all we ever needed.

Love is all there is.

[KmartxD]

I just clicked the song. As the song played, I read the discription. As soon as the song had ended, so did I finish reading. I haven't cried this much in a long while. Your photographs are beautiful. Each individual picture, brings emotion. Don't think they go unnoticed. I just wanted to thank you.

[madhatter1161]

love this song!!!!!

[mahimadhesi]

Beautiful song and beautiful pictures <3

[teresalynnmaheux]

not every person would read the description , you're right , most just want to hear cat power sing . but im going to be 100% honest with you , i type "sea of love" in , just so i can go to this video , i press repeat a million times. all to see the beautiful photography . the raw beauty to it , and the fact that it was in such a vulnerable time for you, takes courage .

your pictures are beautiful , and i couldn't think of a better song to go with them .

[taniaa111]

<3



[leavemethefuckalone2]

i heard this song in a shane dawson video :P

[Qdoticus]

Lotsa feelings goin on in here , huh?

[TaylorDareBates]

The photographs are breathtakingly candid, and I love them.

[keldelel]

I absolutely loved reading the description, I wish you a lot of luck in your future. You are an incredibly talented photographer. And writer I must say.

[amanitacitrina]

wanted to write something but no words would be good enough

hope the best for you

[RaymondMcCarron1]

@amanitacitrina you just did. thank you so much.

[amanitacitrina]

@RaymondMcCarron1 you're very welcome raymond

[1passwordguy]

@RaymondMcCarron1 You have a bright future a head of you ,Good luck

[yunafortilla]

@RaymondMcCarron1 I cried when I read the description. I don't know why, but I did. I really appreciate what you do and want to thank you.

[YourSongluv1D]

I dont know you raymond but i somehow really like you.

[TheDaydaymorena]

Once in a while I come back to listen to this song & read your description beautiful photography :) keep it up head held high :) good luck with your career

[CloudEnvious]

To be honest, I thought you were one of those people that pulled photos off of Google or DeviantArt, put them in the video with the song and voila. But then, I read the description and I was proven very wrong. I have deep respect for your talent. The photos really connect with the song perfectly and I'm hoping that bump in your lifetime has passed or faded. I've grown a deeper love for this video knowing how much you put into it and how much it meant to you.

[ClapoffClapofflol]

I cried listening to this song. It is absolutely the most beautiful thing I've ever heard in my short lifetime. Nothing has ever made me cry like this

[tobomind]

This song is pure fucking beautifulness

[cigarettepillow]

description was so accurate to what I had in mind of this song.

[jbfanforlife49]

There's this certain someone who i've loved for over 4 years, and I will never be able to tell him :c

But this song describes exactly how I feel about him.

[ArmadillosAreDead]

I knew the song from Juno, but a friend linked me this video. Your photos and description are mind-blowing. You've really captured a nice side of Ireland in your photographs :) don't dwell on it, thing come and go- there's somebody better out there for you.

Just thanks for making the vid, I walked around the house for an hour after watching it first with a goofy smile on my face :')

[joepillowpants]

<3 :D

[KonlyYonly]

You're description was beautiful. And the photographs were great. :):):)

[CarolineJupiter]

Your story was touching, Raymond.

[mikeyjvasquez]

You will find love again Raymond. My fiance left me 2 months ago and I know how horrible it is. You got to keep breathing keep moving because the sun will rise. Who know what the tide will bring. Peace brother and have faith that you will be with someone better who will love you just as much as you love her. Mike

[aerosmith01234]

All of these pictures are awesome, but my all time favorite is at 1:55

[jayfur14]

Are you by any chance a Pisces?

[ReyDavidPrimero]

[DreadfulAngel666]

I love your photography. as a photographer myself, this really struck a chord <3

[tiensmiley]

wow, amazing, touching description. this song makes me happy actually.. i want to tell me boyfriend that i love him and this song just inspires me to do so..

[seylathemedium]

My very best friend tried to kill herself while listening to this...now whenever I listen to it I want to cry:(

[emilywhitfiesld]

well I'm a crazy American girl

[negativewierdo]

@RaymondMcCarron1 your description was beautiful :)

[silenthillvictim]

the rain playing with the song makes it feel so romantic! ^_^

[tortillaface100]

this song is too short.

[bbad681]

i really enjoyed reading the description. thank you for sharing.

[desidancer8]

I love this song, but I gave it a thumbs up for the description (:

[icrissy123]

I wanna tell you,how much i love you.

[ludwig6660]

[lolita24601]

I'm adopted and I think if I ever have a child, I'm going to sing this to her.

[evilthesaurus]

thank you juno

[OverlordRulerOfAll]

I fail to understand why they are all de-focussed.

[omfgcookiecake]

This is actually possibly going to be my wedding song...it's between this and First Day of My Life by Bright Eyes...

[pianoloverforever]

@omfgcookiecake First day of my life... definitely.

[omfgcookiecake]

@pianoloverforever Yeah I'm pretty sure that is the one we're leaning more towards

[evilthesaurus]

@omfgcookiecake

both :)

[omfgcookiecake]

@evilthesaurus we're gonna do them both, one for our first dance, then one for our last dance :D

[evilthesaurus]

@omfgcookiecake

Great! Happy wedding and marriage to you both.

[Heroinebawb]

...At the same time that it is believable (the description) i feel that scenario is just to perfect for this song but nice photos i like 0:29, if you are telling the truth @RaymondMcarron1, then i feel you and completely understand where u coming from and apologize for doubting you because when i first heard this song i was carving my arms like a Tgiving Turkey now when i hear it i cant help but think of elliot smith's Needle in the hay scene from Royal Tenenbaums

[likehellagirl]

idk what i have to do to get cat power to sing this at my wedding..but I'll do it.

[ionlysaidja]

Juno..!

[ellebogie123]

@ThatGuyNamedMan bless your heart

[generalcrustard0311]

I can relate completely. But you just hang in there. I'm not religious so to me, heaven is being old and looking back knowing you had so much fun and people loved you and you loved them back.

[lecagot2]

Thanks a lot, Raymond. After reading your description I felt like slitting my wrists.

[SometimesElinor]

1) New tab.

2) Open up Rainymood.

3) Play this and thank me later.

[tigerluver3000]

this song simply made me cry because I looked at a picture of my parents as teenagers.now, years and years later, they love eachother even more. it just makes me think how people can stay in love forever and how amazing and lovely life is. <3 thank you cat power.

[TheWhitebread47]

Hi Raymond, this song (first time for me and Tara) coupled with your description and admirable transparency was touching. This combination penetrated the very walls that I spend my life building to protect me from that inevitable vulnerability of being human. Thank you for being courageous enough to say who you are, where you have been, and why. Best of luck to you in all of your endeavors. Cheers!

[MtnRiderboy]

Raymond, thank you for the beautiful video. I clicked on this video to hear and see Cat sing. To me, she is a wonderful musician. She helps me make my sad days happy again, especially after a break up. Once again, thank you for your beautiful array of photographs.

[ClauuVar]

En qué película sale esta canción?

[0bong0bunny0]

@ClauuVar juno

[SocialBotch13]

people do read the descriptions and I know how you feel, that all is lost and nothing will ever be right again but you have to hang in there, and your photography is amazing, some of the best I've seen in a while but you just have to stay strong and stick with it because you're and amazing photographer and your work is fantastic, and it's the girl's loss really that she lost you

[lyssaruth]

This song makes me so happy:,)

[924gaby]

your description was breathtaking. i am also a photographer. i always new i was part of the artsy breed of people but could never figure out how to use it. i picked up a camera about a year ago and ever since i havent been the same. the complete freedom to capture the world around you as its happening is mind blowing. the way you described it touched my heart, i completely understood and was so glad someone else felt the same way.

[Baxiguo]

if you live in england

open window

enjoy

[lovintouchinsqweazin]

This song is beautiful...I wish it was longer.

[hentydagamer]

I like your perspective of telling us your story and I also like how you pick this song. Now I am 11 years old and I pick this song as my favorite because it makes me think of my uncle who passed away recently because he gave me his acoustic steel string which sounds like the guitar in this song and I makes me cry every time I listen to it
