  • you filll me with absolute love

  • It's true artists like this that stand the test of time. The biebers thankfully will wither and fade.

  • Deeply touching performance and one which has much to say about our own fears of death and the end of our lives...let us unite in that this song is at the very least authentic and heartfelt!

  • merci

  • Heart-wrenching vocals.The man is truly gifted.This song reduces me to tears each time I hear it.

  • It's the singer, not the song. There's too much of a disconnect for me to enjoy the video.

  • such a beautiful piece of music.

  • @TomWoodyy this is garbage.

  • I lost a great friend last week. He thought life was no longer worth living. This song has always tugged my heart strings. With recent events I can't listen to it without howling at the injustice of losing someone in such circumstances. Where was I? Could any of his friends made a difference? What made him so desolate? Dear God in Heaven - please welcome that baby boy with open arms. He needs comfort and understanding and above all, love. I'm just gutted. Safe onward journey Markus xxxx

  • @JazzyFreathy ,

    Sometimes we just can't do anything,painful as that thought is.I hope your friend is at peace.

  • never havin bin touch by any god or religion.. but this music is as closest as it will get for me.. amen

  • This song hurts my soul, but it's so beautiful I can't stay away.

  • thumbs up if muchachada nui 4x03 sent you here

  • My Dad just died -I can't quit listening to this. It is so powerful and true.

  • Never seen a song sung with such emotion.

  • Love him so much! <3 This is my favorite song ever ^^ makes me warm inside! (getting my "Between Light and Nowhere"-tattoo soon) :D

  • That man's physical appearance makes this music infinitely more powerful, like Paul Potts on "Britain's Got Talent." I'm not having a go.....beautiful song....downloaded it to my phone....

  • bloody amazing song and heart catching!!!!! i listen to it evryday :)

  • I think the song is better without watching him...

  • he reminds me of Aphrodite's Child

  • this guy warbles too much he sounds like a woman with a nervous problem

  • Gives me goosebumps!

  • Beautiful ! It simply rips my heart everytime I hear it. Pure genius.

  • wow this is bloody brilliant 

  • I know that my father will be waiting for me.I have no fears,I`ll be ready when the time comes

  • There is just something about this song that is so beautiful.

  • no me canso de decir que esta cancion me devuelve lo que creia olvidado! EL SENTIR!! me estremece, me roba lagrimas.. una y otra vez y hasta cursimente puedo decir que cierro los ojos y si levanto mis manos puedo tocar las nubes en el cielo y sentir como puedo flotar ! es magico!

  • It's one of those rare songs that simply prove music can be art

  • es impresionanteee

  • esto es mas que celestial! te acaricia el alma! es bellisimooo! gracias x existir !

  • Es escucharla y llorar,es increíble esta canción,como despierta ese sentimiento,te sientes triste y a la vez lleno de alegría,te vienen recuerdos a la cabeza,recuerdos difíciles de olvidar...Simplemente,preciosa­...

  • This has got to be one of the most beautiful songs ever, i'm bawling like a baby every time i hear it..Pure genius

  • I like how someone can call this song gay. And was passed to him in a message as a joke. I listen to metal and this song still catches my attention, it is hauntingly beautiful and breath taking evermore. Antony is a genius. How you can diss this song is not of human capabilities. I hope one day you are raped in New York by some huge black dude. This I'd a wonderful peace of art. The other singer I have ever heard that is this good is Darroh Sudderth from Fair to Midland.

  • Heart-warmingly tragic

  • amazing song

    miss u H.

  • just amazing.

  • Soul aching

    Heartbreaking

    Brilliance! <3

    Thank you.

  • Complètement et définitivement accro à cette voix !

  • I can't believe I've been snobing them for such a long time thinking they were only another "indie band". HOW STUPID PREJUDISTS CAN BE!

  • I'm left wondering how and why I've never heard of him in my life. I don't see how it's possible for someone so gifted to be so absent. I must have been living under a rock.

  • antoni & the johnsons hacen una musica extraordinaria.,como tambien puedo decir lo mismo ,aunque en otro estilo y en castellano,de Miguel Ale &Friktango unos creadores y talentosos musicos que conoci en Barcelona.

  • forever love ~ ioana nemes

  • so much emotion :)

    

  • Absofuckinglutely beautiful!!!!! <3

  • never heard somei=one like him n i probably never will thts wat makes him so great

  • beautiful, beautiful beautiful his voice his face everything

  • If you can get over how fucking freakish he looks, he's the absolute best.

  • <3 it made my cry

  • Every time I listen to this I get... There'll be nobody for me, they're all gone...

  • @PolarTulip me too x

  • @PolarTulip me too x

    

  • You know that is REAL music, when you feel that Feeling in your heart.... Like if you know what I'm talking about !

  • I'm sure Antony would love all of the knob slobbering happening on this thread. I feel that Michael Bolton has finally passed the torch of most ill advised adventures with a great voice to somebody else. Sublime? Beautiful? Try singing into a glass of water for a similarly unspeakable affect.

  • @russgriswald judging from some of the things you have in your youtube favorites ( really, a spandau ballet cover for ukelele ?!) you have absolutely no right to slag other people off for heaping praise on this beautiful piece of music.

  • @kmfdm10392 Thanks for the reply. I'm surprised ukulele Final Countdown isn't linked to this song because both are hilarious. I'm sorry you can't grasp that this song sucks. Antony has a lovely gift of a voice. It is awesome! however his topic, orchestral backing, shirt, haircut, coda, and whimpering over beginners arpeggios don't amount to good musicianship. Sorry to hurt your feelings, this was linked to me as a humorous vid, and when I saw all of joyous praise I couldn't help myself:)

  • @russgriswald

    Expert's arpeggios don't amount to good musicianship either. Would you call The Wall bad for it's simplicity?

  • @russgriswald You're welcome to your own opinion, but I have to disagree with you. Any more production would detract from the strengths of the song. Listen to 'take me home' by Tom Waits for a similar example. I'm not saying that simplicity is always best, only sometimes, and this, I think, is an example of when it is.

  • @russgriswald If you found this song "hilarious" you have much to learn, see, read and feel.

  • Es difícil para mí comprender cómo Anthony consigue que una tristeza tan profunda sea hermosa. Pero cuando él canta, esa tristeza se convierte en amor.

  • Es difícil para mí comprender cómo Anthony consigue que una tristeza tan profunda sea hermosa. Pero cuando él canta, esa tristeza se convierte en amor.

  • für jeden daumen runter sind wieder 36 daumen hoch :-)

  • both touching and bizarre. amazing vocal control. a true classic.

  • i wanna feel your breathe...

  • i love u antony....

  • One of the most beautiful music ever made. Antony Forever.

  • Beautiful

  • i have never listened to this and not cried.

  • @kaini same here

  • @croix89 soft ass

  • the tears swim within me...and I open my eyes

  • .......im speachless..... <3

  • Antony's got one of the most unique voices on the planet.

  • Darroh brought me here...

  • Comment removed

  • @DrUnKeNMaXXX Darroh brought me here too. I wish we could hear darrohs voice a little better. But both amazing voices.

  • what a voice

  • This is beauty beyond comparison.

  • Thumbs up if Daniel Radcliffe's playlist sent you here :)

  • this song pierces right through my core. the voice, the emotion, the delicate piano. it's perfect.

  • Why would you even want to argue on a video like this? and argue about petty little things that have no purpose in the long run. Just enjoy this amazing song.

  • I don't have an opinion. All I know is that it's raining outside and this is one hell of a beauitiful song.

  • @TheMoisesLinares on videos so beautiful and soul piercing that they make you ponder the meaning of life, there are always arguments about religion. the negitive is embraced by me because its an important part of life. where would we be without it? there would be nothing to experience or learn. i love it and saver it in equal terms with the positive

  • l see the botton of i like and l don't like....but, where the one that is say: I LOVE IT ! ! !

  • Yes I will marry you

  • He looks like sonja of eastenders and sings like Blakey from on the buses.

  • @sheltie1000 lol will you marry me

  • It's a miracle..... : _ )

  • The irony of arguing. I don't see how this guy's religious hate is any different than the other's. Right is a point of view. Antony's voice, any real music, should be something to fill you with good. You know what they call a nasty little thing that exists amongst something perfectly healthy? A virus. Have fun with that. I'll be listening to something beautiful

  • WOW I've haver heard a voice like this!!!! :O beautiful!!!!!! I Love this song!!! Thx for upload!!!

  • i think that whatever comfort people gain by religion should be left in peace.its the power of the spirit in this song that gives food for thought.sane your not

  • is a monster!!!

  • what wonderful voice !

  • Did you guys now that the comment box was put here either say if you liked the video, or you didn't. Perhaps you just wanted to say something nice about the guy, But it's not here to argue about religion, or anything else for that matter. Honestly, I don't think anyone cares, Great video by the way, he has such a beautiful voice.

  • @dantheman500-religion is a cultural construct that uses,amongst other things,symbols.What you describe is actually spirituality.Very different concepts.The former is about control,while the latter-freedom.

  • thumps up if you think he was a woman

  • @themuscleguy you need help.

  • This song is shown on an episode of Torchwood- Random Shoes. Quite sad. Beautiful song. x

  • belief is also not the same as religious belief ...just to point that 1 out

  • j'adore!

    Adoro!

    I love!

  • i hated this this song when i first heard it,now i think it's one of the most beautiful songs i've ever heard.

  • magic!!!

    

  • This is just wonderful. Nothing else to say of this heartbreaking song <3

  • Beautiful, absolutely beautiful.

  • It tires me to see religious debates on youtube videos. This man has an amazing talent, whether you think God gave him this talent or you think it is his own, just enjoy it.

  • que significa fugly?

  • Live version > studio version

  • His major influence was the legendary Nina Simone and I feel she would appreciate his music as well.

  • @TheIrregularVerb nice one, not enough people think of god like that- in fact it seems not enough people actually think enough at all!

  • es lo mejor que he escuchado en mucho tiempo.. simply...wonderful!! i always cry when look this song... i love it!

  • I cannot stop listening to this song

  • where are the molecular crystal formations?

  • Your voice is at this moment healing my heart and the pain.....

  • Alieno.....

  • ITS A TRAP !

  • Questa canzone è meravigliosa!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • What a beautiful voice and what a beautiful song...

  • Unbelievable. Sublime. Unspeakable beauty. A voice that stops time.

  • @warrenrulz

    Yeeeeeeeeeees.

  • Antony is an amazing artist. So much emotion and power in this song. It's like a gazing into the depths of Dante's Inferno in music. Such power. I can never listen to it just once, I have to replay it several times over...

  • Could we just stop talking about religion and listen to the music ?

  • Funny, I imagined him to be black :)

  • I just think grown up people with immaginary friends are scary.. aspecially when it gets mixed up with politics. religion is bad, just face it.

  • Que maravilloso!

  • precioso , maravilloso , que voz tan fantastica bravo

  • No words of mine could ever do this justice. WOW

  • I just hope this special someone is out there for me too....

  • religion is aload of cock n balls to try to keep people on the right track

  • es la sensibilidad en estado puro.siempre me hace llorar

  • i like Lil B's version better

  • to Mancuso64. Antony is Christian. There is evidence for the existence of God. Look up Immanual Kant, Religion Within the Limits of Reason Alone and Surrendra Gangadean, Philisophical Foundation. In any regard I love Antony. His music has saved me so many times.

  • @vdalke606 Anthony is christian - thats evidence theres a god is it?

    sorry but im on @Mancuso64 side here - stop pretending u know more than everyone because your christian and keep your preaching/views to yoruself unless asked about them...

    its the fact a lot of christians pretend to know more than someone not christian when really we're all as clueless as each other

    (anthony and the johsons are true artists)

  • @dantheman500 Vdalke606 is not saying that because Antony is christian God exists. He's simply stating that Antony is a Christian, and that he believes God exists. Don't twist words around...

  • @Warhawkhastetheday quote "Antony is Christian. There is evidence for the existence of God."

  • @dantheman500 You're taking it out of context though, He said those at 2 different spots in his comment. He didn't say "THAT is evidence of God". He said "There IS evidence of God." He did not say that because Antony is Christian, that God exists.

  • @Warhawkhastetheday i think you mean i misread it, and your right

    but then i disagree that "there is evidence of god " - infact there is plenty to proove he doesn't if you ask me but no1 is asking...just like no1 asks for people to be over zelous

  • @dantheman500 In my belief the evidence of God is all around us, but everyone has their own beliefs (or lack there of). I'll leave you to your business. Have a nice day sir.

  • @Warhawkhastetheday appreciated. my problem lies with believers who believe its their duty to preach to everyone depsite people being willing or not. doesn't allow for people to make their own minds up.

    however, i understand not every1 is like this.

    and good day to you :)

  • @dantheman500 Everyone is religious. You experience the world in light of what you believe in to make the experience meaningful. that would be religion. not organized or unorganized but religion in itself. I'm not preaching but if you recall you were the first to "preach" about how stupid and idiotic people who believe in God are...maybe you should not attack me for my words when you are the one who posted hate against those who believe in God first.

  • @Mancuso64 I was just giving out literature to read that I have seen to be useful, I don't believe I know more and I don't profess that I know more. It's not Christian to non-Christian (again i'm using your words not mine, I never said I was christian) It is Rational Human Being to Rational Human Being. nothing more, nothing less.

  • @vdalke606 i think youl find i wasn't the first to "preach"

    also if you actually i think i hate people that believe in god, you havn't understood my point.

    i live my life the way i think is best - not in someone elses name and get angry at people who push their beliefs on anyone. its this sort of thinking that led to war and genoside and i know thats possibly an extreme view but correct me if im wrong

  • @vdalke606 i think youl find i wasn't the first to "preach"

    also if you actually i think i hate people that believe in god, you havn't understood my point.

    i live my life the way i think is best - not in someone elses name and get angry at people who push their beliefs on anyone. its this sort of thinking that led to war and genoside and i know thats possibly an extreme view but correct me if im wrong

  • @vdalke606 again....don't put interpretations behind my words when you know the point im getting at.

    not against poeple who believe in religeon just those that seek to push their beliefs on eveyone

  • Comment removed

  • awesome song. aaaand bro, to think that the design of all things isnt enough evidence for a designer. man. i love you, and all people, and i pray for you, and the love is the reason i dont hate you for not believing, as if believing is the issue. why would i hate you for not believing. im saddened. the devil believes in God. thats not even the issue. and religious people arent the only ones that see things in songs and movies and make assumptions about what the meaning of it is.

  • What a voice, pure magic.

  • perfect. 

  • First time I heard this song I thought: How the hell can he be a singer. But after listening to the words of this song I can't stop listening to it;)

  • omfg i gott shivvers all over my bodey and iv seen this vid 50 times today

  • i want this guy at my wedding to make the first dance epic as it could be

  • its interesting to see the homophobes troll every lgbt vid on UT to leave their bile - if they knew Anthony they would know that his feelings towards them is one of pity rather than fear - todays youth culture feeds from the right - wing agenda - homophobia's a clever tool used by the conservatives to distract from their own sexual compulsions Incest/Child abuse/Misogyny/Self-loathing/U­ptight/Fear -

    Anthony & his music is more than they can comprehend or consider because it is about purity

  • You are a goodies creature - you touch my heart – a present for humanity

  • can we not break this down and just accept its a piece of beauty?

  • @Mancuso64

    Oh please, if you're so accepting of others beliefs then why suggest they are mentally ill? No one is subjecting you to any crackpot theory any more than you are subjecting them to unecessary unkindness.

    1LonePuma's comment may not be to your particular taste and you may not agree with the sentiment, but it came from a kind place and doesn't deserve such hostility especially when masked with faux acceptance.

  • @mikewh1989

    I accept that there are crackheads out there, but I don't accept them coming up to me and trying to get me to do it too...

    It's the same thing.

  • Well then if a crackhead were to offer you some crack, then fair enough, criticise them for it. But if they were only declaring their apreciation for crack, then don't.

    My point was, that 1LonePuma wasn't "trying to get you to do" religion, they were just expressing themselves in a religious way. It's as easy to ignore as a crackhead in a gutter.

  • @mikewh1989

    I accept others beliefs because it would be foolish not to do so. I don't accept that the sentiments came from a "kind place". I suggest they come from 2,000 years of indoctrination by the Christian faith. A fath that has underpinned endless wars, ritual abuse, and the subjugation of people depending upon the nature of their sexuality or gender. I'm an athiest, there is no proof whatsoever for a God. Let me know when he show up eh?

  • @Mancuso64

    You don't have to accept the sentiments, you also don't have to be so scathing of them.

    mikewh1989's comment wasn't necessarily reffering to who is atheist/agnostic/theist and who is right, but to how comments like yours could be considered to be ramming atheism down people's throats as much as some religious people do. Which is actually not what 1LonePuma was doing in my opinion.

  • @Mancuso64

    Stalin was an atheist. And by all reasonable accounts outdid Hitler in the number of people he murdered.  I don't believe atheists can claim the moral high ground either.

  • @vgrousseau1

    in The Bible, God outdid Satan in the number of people He murdered. I don't believe christians should use this kind of arguments.

    Sorry for my english, Italian is my spoken language

  • @vgrousseau1 The catholic church is christian and murdered countless people during the inquisition. Seriously, having a belief or lack of belief DO NOT tie you to what people with the same vision did in the past.

  • @Mancuso64 Very well. All you say, is wel written and thought.

  • @Mancuso64 The problem is not the question whether there is a God or not, the problem is that people don't understand what God actually is. Modern religions portray him as a deity and some sot of father figure, when really God is just a principle, the philosophical principle of the good. I would actually argue that the true problem is that we (and by that I mean religious people too, if not mainly) have not reflected enough upon the idea of God itself, we don't know what "God" actually means.

  • @Mancuso64 I don't believe that its right to push religion on people either. But, if you look at TRULY religious people, they usually don't. there are a lot of people that claim to be christian or muslim but they are lost and confused. don't blame the religion for their faults. There is no proof that God doesn't exist either. so to believe 100% without question, and to spread the word that to believe in a God is a mental illness is just as delusional and short sighted as the zealots.

  • @Mancuso64  the evidence is you and me...antonys songs......

  • @Mancuso64 hahahaha I love how you think that life is ruled by evidence!

  • And stop your religious bullshit.
