Chocolate Genius My Mom

[jww1067]

Alzheimer's took my mom over a slow and terrible 12 years. Pray that this never happens to anybody you love and admire.

[redsunn21]

This blew me away when he first released this song.....still does.....

[kevindusca]

Wow no se ni quienes son los q cantan esta cancion!

Pero es verdaderamente triste!! :'( I Cried

Mama!! Te Amo!!

[argjmg]

its just me or the font ir really really small ? great sad song anyway

[jonnyxboxmaster300]

I can't think of anything worse than somebody in my family getting Alzheimers. Has to be the worst thing that could happen to a person and for their loved ones

[waxdec]

wow this shit is sad... :/

[BabyBroadwayGirl]

so sad..

[graham85h]

My mum died of Alzheimers, I've never been the same since. The saddest thing I've ever had to face.

[zwisslb]

Wow.  I feel selfish somehow.

[bigbabygrl2]

I agree with Muziekfriek 99. I was afraid to push play on this too. It's so haunting after I listen to it, I just end up melancholy for a bit reminiscing about my childhood and hoping this isn't in my future. A sad and beautiful tune.

[songerch2]

I miss you mommy <3

[beerpac7]

My gram has Alzheimer and it kills me to go see her, so i cry when i hear this literally ball

[TheDayfriday]

i'm crying...

[nesnejls]

Blimey.  That is just sad as all hell. Kinda hard to breathe normally listening to this.

[mommydearest8]

this sonng is so sad..

To have ur mom not remeber ur name..Just hurts so bad

[tackett100]

wow first time I ever heard this song and I cried it is powerful And I feel for those who have parents or grandparents that suffer from alzhiemers

[mraymundo]

This song... this song reach me to the deeps of my soul

[GoToYourTreeBirds]

2 deaf people?

[izedawidka]

the guys mother died of altcheimer and she forget everything. I feel very very sorry for him.

[muddack]

I saw this song on MuchMusic. there was a video. I cannot find the video on youtube. it had some real period moments in it and it really made the song complete. if it moves you now it will really creep in with the video. if anyone knows how to find, or if someone can post it msg me and let me know the info.

[DarkVikingMaster]

My humble opinion: people possessing musical knowledge/skill this tiny should not be allowed to pick up instruments nor be allowed into recording studios. Maybe a poem would've been better...

[deathdealer60546]

@DarkVikingMaster not too humble if you post it on a public forum

[mikedrk]

@DarkVikingMaster

This wouldn't have the same impact as a poem. Its perfect as it is

[wutez]

DROWNING IN MY TEARS DURING AND AFTER THIS SONG * SO BEAUTIFUL WOW *

[SourPix]

I tear up when I hear this and I'm depressed.

[OrangeCatGlow]

Fuck man thats a heavy song.

[x24z26]

Songs about Mom's always are depressing for some reason. I like this one very much, but John Lennon's Mother is still my favorite depressing Mom song. 

[ahmadsahmoud]

i only need to hear this song once, these guys sure know how to write a powerful song. terrifying and sad. shit like this makes me really wish there's a heaven because this life would be too cruel if it ended without the memories of the ones you loved.

[boyturned2man]

My mom had a severe seizure recently right in front of me, and for about 5 minutes she looked at me and dint recognize me, worse she felt threatened by me, as if i was a stranger. She keep puling away from me. I kept desperately calling her 'Mom,Mom,whats happening to you'.Those 5 mins lasted like 5 years. .The doctors are not very confident about reassuring me that her memory will not deteriorate. I feel like i got a glimpse of the future then.

This song touches me, reminds me of those 5mins.

[dockins]

My father experienced this with his mother and my cousins are going through it now with their mom. Very sad. 

[gtasahomo]

Fuck, this song is so sad and real. My mom is getting older and it worries me so much. I'm going to cry like a baby.

[hayeshayes22]

2 people dont know how lucky they are not to be able to feel pain otherwise they would have cried at this like all the rest

[RedDeath06]

@hayeshayes22 They aren't lucky, they are dead inside.

[Igworldd]

This is the first time I've cried with a song I think and it really worths it.

[Igworldd]

This is the first time I've cried for years and it really worths it

[terence79ulrikson]

If u like this song, watch the live version uploaded by 7candles!

Sad but so beautiful! ;)

[itrombe]

what's a mom

[77greekgod]

One word: GUSEBUMBS!

[DarthMakaveliSithMC]

An incredible song on an incredible album, by an incredible artist. I wish he had more recognition, but at the same time, I'm somewhat glad he isn't too well known. He gets to make the music he wants to make. Every album of his is special. I've been listening to his latest, Swansongs, over and over, and it's as if I hear something different each time. "Black Music" is my favorite album by him. "My Mom," "Clinic," "Hangover Nine" and "It's All Good" are great, powerful songs.

[KyataChibiki]

This song makes me cry because it makes me think, "what if this happens to me and my mom?" I love my mom more than anything in the world and I don't know what I would do without her.

[terenceulrikson]

@KyataChibiki This song made me cry so much by the past, the first time saw it, like u i was just imagined that for my mom. So now my mom don't have alzheimer but she's dead by cancer and when i hear this song i feel this time.

Anyone can find or upload the video clip of this song?!

[KyataChibiki]

@terenceulrikson I'm sorry. <3

I don't know where someone would get the video for this song.

[evenmorebetter]

@terenceulrikson I'm sure that I have it on VHS somewhere, but me having the equipment to get it from VHS to computer is a different story...

[terence79ulrikson]

@evenmorebetter

ok thanks if one day u can upload it please keep me up ;) it will be so nice! ^^

Its ok KyataChibiki! ;)

[evankiefl]

ive never heard a sadder song.

[sohltofang]

Had to pause it at least 4 times.

[bethy29]

Such a moving song. :'(

[JGOOD3392]

Were using this song for our Alzheimer Fraternity Tub push.. Good Inspiration song to make the boys know what were doing this for!

[JGOOD3392]

Were using this song as inspiration for our Fraternity Tub push for Alzheimer philanthropy

[thatgirlisflyytt]

best

[Subfightr]

I have tried to cover this song countless times, I just cant get threw it without crying like a baby...

[Outlaw2x4]

Could someone give me an album name, or somewhere I can get this? Its brethtaking.

[cgmalloy]

@Outlaw2x4 Chocolate genius Album: Black Music

[rebecajane]

seriously WHO is the one person who disliked this .

[englanddg]

First time I've heard this song. My great-grandmother suffered from Alzheimer's. When I was young she was, a bright wonderful woman to had a plum tree and helped me up the ladder when I was maybe 4 or 5 to pick them. We moved overseas, and while we were gone, my great-grandfather died, and when we came back, she thought I was my father. That lasted for 5 years or so, then she thought I was my grandfather...

[englanddg]

It's a terrible disease, to see a someone ripped away, to lose their love and guidance. I was still young, and for the longest thought it was "Old Timer's Disease"...but staying summers with my grandparents, and caring for her, bathing her, feeding her, listening to her rambling stories...burned in my heart a feeling of loss. I miss her, but I still feel her passing was a relief, as she could go back to being the bright, educated woman she was, unhampered by a sick body.

Fantastic song.

[JustThatGirI]

I can't wait till this disease is gone forever.

[AndyMan2006P]

@JustThatGirI whens that?

[JesuisLeroy]

this song is so sad.. I love my mom so much. I don't tell her enough... Time flies , I should make the best out of my life and make her proud now I still can ...

[bluebellful]

this song just made me cry... srsly

[usefulideot]

@bluebellful i think you would have to have no heart at all not to cry during this one

[Iowfatcheese]

@usefulideot Not really. I cried the first time I heard it, but not anymore.

[abdulcbc]

this is music really song beatifull

[ZJProz]

a very sad song........but real for a lot people out there........bless them all

[lautour]

I'm so so scared of this happening to my mom or dad. I'd cry every day. But then I'd survive I guess, because you have to.

[lightahshadow]

i love it

[blackisaki]

It's crazy how this song affects us, whether we've dealt with Alzheimer's personally or not. I have not, but this song has been making me bawl for the last 12 years. I've been looking for the video everywhere. TOUCH YOUR MOM...., WHILE YOU CAN.

[Chocolateluvr1987]

This is such a sad song. Have you seen videos of him performing it live? You can tell it's honest and personal to him. :(

This reminds me of my dad, who died of a brain tumour and developed some cognitive impairments as well.

I do some volunteering with people with dementia, and although they've still got a lot to give, the development is heartbreaking to watch. I hope my mom never develops it. Never.

[FunkDefunkt83]

this song makes both me and my dad cry

my grandma is is developing severe dimentia and she always asks me the same questions after questions. She doesnt even remeber my dad. her son. i love my grandma so much and it breaks my heart to see her this way.

[mk6693]

wow sad

[MrVampirefluf]

saddest song I've heard in my life ):

[TheUglyTruth2]

This is a great song. If you are lucky enough to still have your Mom, hug her and tell her how much you thank her and love her...if you do.

[no4162]

incredible.. so sad but true about how things keep changing!

[xHannah3]

I love this song, but at the same time i hate it. It hits you hard, but i keep listening to it.

My granny can't remember my name, she can't remember my mums name, or anyone else, she is in a unit, not allowed out, too violet or sleeping all day. Alzheimer's, it ruins the greatest of people.

[CasanovaDaz]

crushing

[LovelyYTRocks]

Tell your mummy you love her.

Before that horrible disease hits her.

Hopefully it doesn't.

[corval1984]

Goddamn this song is sad, I don't like my mum too much, but this shit still made me cry.

[pendleaussie]

Maybe you should get to know your mum better, because one day she will be gone and you will regret not getting to know her better.

[corval1984]

I know my mum just fine. She's always been in my life, she's just a crazy christian. We don't agree on much.

[BatXDude]

Yes Thats True..

[footballfitz69]

Does anyone have the chords to this?

[Muziekfriek99]

I think this song is so strong because it reminds us all of how vulnerable we are, that there's a good chance that this happens to us, either as the son or as the mum. I've known this song since Chocolate Genius put it on the cd and each time I'm almost afraid of listening to it.

[treacleeater]

Perfectly summed up. Totally agree with you, it is a song which I am almost afraid of listening to. But man is it worth it!

[pendleaussie]

Well said, I agree with you completely. I remember ages ago my grandma was getting old and she was losing her memory. She kept asking me and my brother which grade we were in... at the time I was young and thought she was crazy but now I look back and feel so bad for her.

[mistaba]

@Muziekfriek99 your all too damn sensitive arghh !! man up damnit >=D

[Sniluk]

@mistaba when someone you love has this disease, say the same thing then. my nan suffered through this.

[ibocheva]

this moved my soul

[ernestbungle26]

I am ready. "As I say this weeping", so pathetic, so much pain, so ready yet not ready, not ready for the obastacles of life but ready for those in death, I need a NEW start.I'm a goddamn 28 year old man and I sit here fucking crying.

[05027802]

Hey ernest, I hope you're feeling a little better since you wrote that message. Life can seem overwhelming, almost unbearable at times and some form of change is what we need. It may be a new city to live, relationship or job. Sometimes it's possible to get that change without even leaving that job or person you love.

We sometimes just need a new perspective but we just haven't worked out how to get it yet. Change is often closer than you think.

PM me if you have some spare time.

[ernestbungle26]

Christ, so deep man, so deep.

[Talixaen]

thats gotta be my greatest and most plausible fear. my mom's memory has never been the greatest, my grandpa is developing dementia, and someday, my mom will look at me with no recognition in her eyes...

[giaroinmisha]

rly hit home... when my mom came out of remission for lukemia and i went to go see her as soon as she came to what senses she had left she thought it was mid 80's she didnt even know who i was... and my dad who had a stroke asked who i was... all to familiar nothing will make u break into tears faster theyve both passed recently just glad they can be happy together both out of misery...damn thx for the upload

[elandreyrery]

[ThoBrian]

Sad song man. Thanks for posting it.

[laughorgomad]

[RogerTheAlien86]

this is a great song.....poetry in music...

[x3FallingStar]

This song means so much to me. My Grannie has Alzheimers, knowing other people are going through the same is so comforting. i love this song :)

[xXxOutlaw90xXx]

truelly one of the sadest songs in the whole world...

[05027802]

Lyrics don't get anymore heartfelt than this.

[lopsidedcat]

My heart goes out to the familes and those who are victims of alzheimers disease. They truly are vicitims.

My grandma passed away recently from the disease and i can definetly say that the years before she left, were some of the most heart wrenching of my life.

[TomBrandon121]

Wow...

Absoloutley unbelieavable song..

I don't kow anybody with Alzheimer's personally, but it looks to be pretty much the most horrible thing you could go through if somebody you love has it...

Anyone who has gone through that I respect you, I don't think I could cope.

[alanahbabyxo]

i love raeanns mom... :$

<3

[alanahbabyxo]

what a great song :|

mom :$ (L)

[CrazySnowwhite]

made me cry

means a lot

[wjrfec41]

my grandma has Alzheimer's and its tearing my family apart. this song means a lot to me.

[yournamehere385]

amazing song. soo sad.

[TrunkFunk]

My best friend's Dad died of Alzheimer's at 61. He was a log-trucker and drank beer every day after work. Dr's suspect the metal in cans got him (as well as the suds), but he completely forgot who his son was. He was strong as an ox at 60 but couldn't remember what you had just told him 15 minutes earlier. You always had to repeat the same things. The last time I saw him alive he looked at me like someone he had just seen for the first time ... and yet growing up he was my 2nd dad. Sad.

[thatgirlisflyytt]

I am sorry

[lgazarini]

This music is perfect... Does anybody knows where I can find it to download? Can't find it anywhere....

[lgazarini]

Well, I just got it...

[persona19]

I have this and other songs by him on my old ipod from years ago. I don't remember how I ever came across him though.

[wallalot]

youtubedownloader

[galaxyblur]

buy it, silly...

[mmmmep]

One of the most powerful pieces of music I've ever heard.

[Sunshine92101]

Most Exquisitely Sad Songs in the Whole World.

[BoognishWhoo]

I love this song.  I used to have the CD, but it mysteriously dissapeared :(

[BadBoyMaxman]

great song, can't find it anywhere but...

[marcusreedus]

unsettling, heartbreaking, and incredibly beautiful.

[davidcookrocks5]

yeah i agree this song id heart breaking and i feel for anyone who knows anyone with Alzheimer's. it really captures anyone even if they can relate or not. even the thought of the people you love not remembering you is a complete tragedy.

[05027802]

Alzheimer's is a very tragic disease for the family as much as it is for the person suffering from it. A great song that really captures how desparately sad this illness is.

[gonzagirl]

I don't think I could of cried any harder, while I listened to this song. I'm calling my mom today.

[chinita0415]

this song ...it is so sad

[pinchandtwist]

genious no doubt!

[webmastahco]

I forgot to mention, the link was for the lyrics.

Ciao!

[freedomfighter1989]

reminds me of my great grandma

[rassledassle82]

Aww...this is too sad...

[MakeLoveNPancakes]

Its so sad, but yet so good and beautiful.
