[MCabanaUR]

Is there somewhere I can download this version? Its the best!

[Niki1squarepants]

@MCabanaUR His album version sounds like this. The album is We were here. There is another version around youtube which is like a "studio" version, but it doesnt sound half as nice as this! :D

[MCabanaUR]

@Niki1squarepants Ok because the album version I heard wasn't like the acoustic version like this, it has drums and everything in it which I didn't like.  I like the plain acoustic version the best and haven't been able to find it.

[Niki1squarepants]

@MCabanaUR I know the one you mean, with drums, it's the one I found on youtube. I'll send you a private message with my email address and if you are interested, I can send you my version, It has a woman singing with him :)

[sloDOra]

he can play on our wedding! goooosh he is stunning! =)

[emmsterville]

did he write this for them?

[gertjetop]

@emmsterville

No, I think he played this at The Ellen degeneres show and she came up to him and told him that she loved the song and if he wanted to play it at her wedding..or something :)

[dacjuks132]

i wish to everyone they would have true love around and no one should feel sad or alone

[maverick84able]

Nice performance! Another love song! Nothing new or especial about this song!

[TheSami1973]

I love Joshua Radin's voice. Find it really emotional to listen to. He's great. Thanks too to Ellen for the inspiration. Being gay can be lonely. x

[writeroffantasy]

@TheSami1973 It can be but its more beautiful when you do find your true love :) Im bi and have found my grl and this song is mine and hers too :) She is so beautiful :) I wish you love and happiness sweety :)

This is a lovely song, lovely to see the camera go to Ellen and Portia holding hands,, they are a fantastic couple. My ex is a mtf pre op transexual and I was really in love with her and miss her.

[Seb590]

I wish i knew the fingerpicking for this song, it's amazing!

[abra819]

2:15 ellen looks precious

[biancascaapie]

WAHTEVER!!!!!!!!!!!

[MultiPancakes]

Why do you bother writing stuff like this?

People are gonna be who theyre gonna be an we need to learn to accept people for who they are and let them love whoever they wanna love! It is embarissing reading stuff like this, and i don't mean your faith- why you somehow believe that you are the one to determine who people are and who they fall in love with, it is quite frankly none of your buisness!

[LexLux3]

Fuck you, Ellen rocks and Portia's gorgeous. They're so lucky to have each other!

<3

[sdh90210]

I saw Ellen and Portia on Oprah the other day. If their love isn't real, no ones is...Joshua Radin is amazing!

[gettinoutahereasap]

its as if the happiness you see in ellen and portia's eyes is summed up into these words and that beautful voice.. much happiness to them!

[nutsbutdum]

Can somebody tell me, by looking at the clip, which kind of strings his guitar has?

Nylon or steel?

[xXMcMuffin]

his guitar has steel strings because idon't

know how it is called in ameri´ca but we in german call that a western gitarre

(sorry for my english I'm from germany )

[Seb590]

It's steel, you can hear that. Also, i've seen the guitar up close at a lot of videos and there you can see that it's steel :)

[TransFictionSwitch]

my all time favorite artist...its like he wrote all these songs about my life

[Destroy2Heal]

OMG. I think I'm in love with Joshua Radin.

[TissieBacke94]

He has got such a gr8 voice...<333 ´sAW him live...and portia and ellen are such a perfect couple...luv them both ♥♥

DAMN,I LOVE ELLEN AND PORTIA!!!

[chesnix]

aww I LOVE this song

LOVE YA ELLEN AND PORTIA!!!!!=)  <3

[weidoha]

Does anyone know when this aired?

[redhappyness]

A year or so ago

[TheFuzzyBard]

Depends. In Sufism (Muslim Mysticism) he is generally considered a Prophet.

Also, for whatever reason I really don't feel like taking Ijury seriously. I vote that any posts of his instantly be marked as spam.

[julian19]

thx for the clip!!!

[jrewetinz]

IMHO, I think that you'll find that the title that Rumi was given was 'Poet', not prophet.

[derossi2200]

love the video thank you

[3TNT3]

What u refer 2 as "disgusting" is going 2 take place whether they r married or not. And about the integrity of marriage being "corrupted": heterosexuals have already done a very good job of taking care of that. And how another persons marriage will affect anyone else's, that makes absolutely NO sense, whatsoever. If your neighbors marriage could have a significantly negative affect on your own, well, your marriage must have been in the toilet already. I am straight btw, so save the namecallng

[Juberoos]

I love this song! Not so fond of gay marriage, but whatever....still think this song is awesome!

[shepsandlauren]

this is way better than that other version he does.

[alchemikalparadox]

I agree, this is the best!

[musiclovingchick6]

aww at ):45 they look so happy

[georgeforeman89]

at my sisters big gay wedding we played this...and it was amazing!!!! Im pretty sure ellen was her and her partner's inspiration :)

[3TNT3]

Oh my gosh, I just have to say, that is HILARIOUS how you characterize it, "at my sisters BIG GAY Wedding..." LOL, as if there are numerous kinds of weddings. Well, let's see, you have your small straight weddings, and then you have your Happy Dance Weddings, and then there is your Sloppy Drunk Weddings, followed by your Bust-A-Gut Weddings, your Can I Still Change My Mind Weddings, The Buns Already Out of The Oven Weddings, the Sure Didn't Marry for $ Weddings, The Nothing In Common Weddings

[denibabez]

Tits or GTFO

[3TNT3]

Yeah! Now that's what I'm talkin' 'bout. I wanna come to your wedding!!! ; )

[ijury]

3TNT3

Well, if your not the devil worshipper then you are the product of powerful people who worship the devil. In another words you are the product of media.

[crazypumkins]

Ijury, I will personally ensure that marriage will only belong to those who beleive in magic. God thinks you are a dumb dumb! Use the brain he gave you!!!!!

[ijury]

crazypumkins

You know, considering that your probably a gay and definitely an Atheist, your level of naiveness and profanity does not surprise me.

In fact it's very good news.

Once this anti-social disease shoots from endemic to pandemic, the recovery will swiftly follow.

[TheFuzzyBard]

Hey, ijury. I'm assuming your muslim, and as such I have to point out that the Prophet Rumi spoke primarily on love. Nothing he ever wrote was about hate or anger or the like.

He spoke on love for the common man. You can hate homosexuals all you want, but you're a hypocrite according to your own religion.

You don't need to agree with homosexuality, you can even hate it, but hating homosexuals and people who are gay is completely wrong.

If you're not Muslim tell me, I can attack anything

[ijury]

ha ha ha

Who the hell is prophet rumi, you stupid diseased specimen.

Yes, you have contracted the gay disease of the mind and need urgent pastoral care and council, failing that you must get yourself locked up to prevent further corruption.

Depending on the stage of gay disease of the mind your in, you might be able to free yourself in about say 2yrs.

[crazypumkins]

Ijury, you have such a hateful heart for being so religious. Why can't you just leave people alone? Who do you think you are? Where are you from? You are from the UK?

[griff231]

this is better live! AMAZING, love it!!!

[zz8w]

he is so cute^^ and i'm gay.

[lukismaximus]

haha good to know..

[Hard1e]

Haha, just out of nowhere! Nah I'm kidding man.

[aznwonab]

omg i totaly want this song at my wedding!! thats so cool that ellen had it at hers!!

[moncouerxoxo]

Such a sweet song... (1:47 - 2:00). Absolutely beautiful.

[WhiteEnvoy]

amazing artist, voice, and great couple !

[kaihirschegg]

i prefer the version on the record when he sangs longer tones and stuff.

but the song is......just joshua

[yayhitbyatrolley]

I saw him LIVE on Thursday.

AMAZING.

[maccid23]

yeah she is married i think as soon gay marriage became legal in LA she has been

[whitkofreshman]

You are amazingly dumb! Ellen DeGeneres & Portia De Rossi married on August 16, 2008 at their home in Cali. They married a few months after California over turned a ban on same-sex marriage.

[sonrisadaniela]

And then when the next election came along...they banned same-sex marriage once again. ignorant people.

[pinwapple]

nonetheless marriages that took place between the passage of the law until horrible prop 8 passed, are still valid. Legislation regarding those marriages is still to be announced. Do some research before calling people ignorant

[soundslike08]

Amazing performance!

[jambammd]

Beautiful song for the beautiful couple :)

[jbarabasz]

This song expresses their love so well. I just envy their love.

[AnimalMad212]

...There's good information on wikipedia if you want to know more? its a bit hard when there is a max. of 500 characters

[badofcheese]

I'm really sorry but who are Portia & Ellen? I just genuinely don't know & would like to, before everyone starts with the abuse! Great song :)

[corrdreams]

Ellen DeGeneres is a famous US comedian and talk-show host and Portia de Rossi is an actress, she played in Ally McBeal. They got married in 2008 after gay marriage was allowed and Ellen insisted on having Joshua Radin playing this song at their wedding... Check out the Ellen DeGeneres show, it's hilarious, you have thousands of vids on Youtube!

[badofcheese]

ooh, thanks! I know the Ally Mcbeal one, just didn't register the name. I think i saw a thing years ago that was just called Ellen? I assume that's her too? Either way that's a nice story, everyone loves a happy ending :D

[corrdreams]

Yep she had 2 shows before her talk-show I think... But I'm not really familiar with them since I live in France and I never saw them on TV. But I read that somewhere ^_^

[AnimalMad212]

Ellen was originally an American stand up comedian known as one of the cleanest acts in comedy for a while. She became internationally famous when her Ellen sitcom character Ellen Morgan came out on the show and she also came out as a lesbian, she then started hosting the Ellen DeGeneres show in 2003 five years after the show was cancelled. She also voiced the fish Dory in Finding Nemo, hosted the Emmys and the Oscars and appeared in the movie If These Walls Could Talk 2.

[AnimalMad212]

....Portia De Rossi is an australian actress born Amanda Lee Rodgers who's first role in a movie was in sirens in 1994, she has appeared in Ally McBeal, Arrested Development and Nip/Tuck to name a few. Hope that helps :)Wikipedia has the best biographies on the both of them if you want more info
