  • I love u guys ur so stupid and believe in everything :*

  • I love this song!!!Is beautiful:)♥

  • tros forte cette chanson

  • I think

    Its only ashes

    The pain hasn't led to revival

  • JOKE -.- omg be more default people, u break me...

  • Nice, but DUBSTEP still expresses more than a thousand words FOREVER!!!!!

  • @The69Oskar69 FAIL

  • @The69Oskar69 seriously? ...

  • @The69Oskar69 No, dubstep is only good to laugh at.

  • I came back to this video, remembering how I had liked the song so much. Somewhat disappointed, I was about to leave the page when 2:05 rolled around and I was like Ohhhh yeah.

  • Thank god ive never seen those...

  • Okay I used to love this song but now every time I hear it I think of the fucking animal commercials. It's lost its meaning for me.

  • I love her voice and the music even though it's so sad. Nice pictures.

  • this song reminds me of my childhood

  • how i feel right now

  • Describes perfectly how I feel sopmetimes....

  • @MartinaBC19 me too

  • this song hurt my heart

  • this person sounds so lonely :(

  • remarkable coincidence: my name is natalie, too. natalie merchant´s zodiac sign is scorpio, too - it is also my zodiac sign - and i was born 1983, natalie merchant 1963. very funny...

    and i like this song so much<3 thank you for uploading!

  • @MsNaddalie such a coincidence, I have two syllables in my name, hers has three. She's a human - I'm a human...

    haha seriously? those 'coincidences' are hardly notable. beautiful song though :)

  • bitterly sweet.[iminent=gM3NzlR59l2]

  • Just beautiful.

  • ffs you guys, the song is about being appreciated for all that you are. She wants to be loved no matter what problems she could have.

  • @troll975 no the song let people here there emotions and not force them self to. Fell depression is noting compared to suicide people give up on life is not something to post about or lol about every feels sad at a point life not perfect and if it is wake up and get ready I'm only 12 saying this

  • @Troll975 Disagree, these are the songs that save me. 

  • @Troll975 let's cut your arms open and take away all the people who love you, and see what kind of music you like.

  • @laurag333 il still listen to scatman john

  • @Troll975

    *feeds the troll the angry belligerent response he desires*

    Good boy! sit! roll over! drool over text!!

    that's a boy!!

  • There's a fan video on YouTube of this song made by scenes from a movie called Code 46. It fits perfectly!

    But I do agree that this song could be pretty much about anything, which makes it even more incredible, because almost anyone can relate to it somehow (which might be bit sad too...)

  • can anyone tell me what this song is about?? about sexual abuse,anorexia..???

    I want to make a video with this song... could It also be about a person who was treted wrong???

    Sorry for my english :-/

  • @BeauitifulMJForever I've always related it to my personality disorder called "Borderline Personality Disorder", if you look it up, you'll understand why. But I firmly believe the song is about how 'anyone' feels when they are anything from depressed to schizophrenic to psychotic.

  • when i hear this song i think of the book 'Mockingjay'' from the hunger games books.' :) <3 and i want this song to be played when i die....

  • What is this song about? Is it about eating disorders because I usually hear this song on anorexic videos.

  • @unoiamacutie

    This song was used heavily in an anorexia story in a UK soap called Hollyoaks! Very traumatic...and this song used to play through all of those really bad moments!

  • this is the song of my death. when there is no more to hold on to & I release my body, freeing my soul. finally at terms with the truth & admit the years & years of pain & the loneliness, it has damaged me.. lets go from here, Im letting go.

  • sad :(

  • Comment removed

  • sad and beautiful.

  • is this the official video or fanmade?

  • es todo lo que una canción necesita para ser excelente!!,... i love it!!

  • this is the least cheesy, most appropriate vid up for this song.

  • I love the multiple meanings, i think if the song had just one meaning and seemed like it had others, it would depress the meaning of the other possibilities. With the interpretation left to the listen who can relate in their way, she gains more listeners who truly understand.

  • I think this song is about a woman who still has feelings for her man who has stopped showing affection to her. She does not know why, which is why she looks at her body and hands and does not understand, even when making love he not she turns out the light is it dark enough? can you feel me? He tries and console w/ fce saving promises yet does not follow up on the actions. It goes on making her feel untouchable. Towards the end she resents him (sweet turning sour) & turns cold & leaves him.

  • @MEDINAV1 I think you're right. Sadly because that is exactly how I feel right now. I've listened to this song over and over and it's like it was written for me at this point in my life.

  • @MEDINAV1 i think you have everything except the ending

    i think she isnt turning sour or cold she isnt leaving him shes leaving everything she thinks nothing in this world can touch her anymore so she is leaving all of it

  • this song can be about animal abuse eating disorder rape or other stuff cancer maby such a sad song :'(

  • I think it could be about many things. About self injury, depression, divorce, eating disorders, illness of any kind, heartbreak...

  • i always thought this song was about an eating disorder. :/

  • oh for gods sake, it could be about anything, only the writter really knws what its about, every1 else can give it a meaning for themselves thats what songs are all about, this song could be interperuted either way

  • She is a beautiful person and song writer, can't explain her style of music, gives a sense of death being okay, part of life I guess... Favorite female singer and writer!!!

  • oh! very beautiful song!

  • It's about a woman with skin cancer who feels like her body has been deformed and is ugly who's asking her husband to make love to her again.

    She "needs the darkness", because she doesn't want him to see her body, she's "leaving" because she's dying, which also explains the line "You kiss me now, catch your death". Look up the lyrics, and you'll see that this reading of the lyricsreally explains every line sufficiently.

  • Seriously guys, abuse? Cancer? Oh dear. Its about divorce, plain and simple. The lyrics practically speak for themselves.

  • It's just a good piece of music, why suppose it's about abuse, cancer or anything else?

    Get a life you mooks!!

  • I would say this song is definitely about abuse. "i've been treated so long, i've been treated so long". but it could be about cancer..

  • @barehnh it could also be mental treatment, doctors , shrinks , over and over again , medical treatments, dont think its about cancer

  • this song is soo beautiful!!! :3

  • song makes me want to hurt myself <.<

  • @jamietje

    don't!!

  • i did

  • This reminds me of those horrid ASPCA commercials that make me bawl like a baby :(

  • Same here but one day I'll be one of those vets helping them.

  • Beautiful song. Makes me feel very very lonely....

  • I belive the video is about abuse. Either way shape or form its abuse, cutting (abusing the body), abuse to animals, sexual abuse, neglection etc

    Its so beautiful and chilling to know that she sings it so sincerley and means every word of it. And its right if your abused you dont need it! Find help.

  • @emzie441 : I think Natalie Merchant's "My Skin" is about having (and dying of) skin cancer. I used to think is was about abuse, too. But give it another listen. Very moving, nevertheless.

  • to ma wgl jakis teledysk ? ;pp

  • GooD Day

  • i really love some of these images, the movements of nature, the trees being pushed, the blooming of flowers, the red going into the water, moving around the drawing at the end.....what is that? they're amazing

  • ma che bello.. :)

  • i wish she done a video for this song, & for many of her songs. I heard her new song sailor o sailor from scottland, I like, but not sure what radio station would play it very different.

  • this song really hits you hard, so beautiful especially hearing it on the commercial for the Humane Society of the United States while watching all the animals that were abused and neglected. Reminded me why I became a Veterinary Technician.

  • oh noes someone dared put this song on a commercial? That's pure blasphemy... x(

  • @skayherrick thank you for your help in fighting for the animals they don't have a voice we need to speak for them!!!

  • beautiful i was looking for the name of this song cus its just soo beautiful

  • Her voice is haunting. Makes you want to shiver and be held in the dark or somthing by one you love. shiverss run down my spine when she lets out the long high notes and it echos a little bit.

    <3

  • Amo questa donna....

  • So beautiful and moving it hurts. Haunting.

  • goosebumps! this song is a bit too beautiful xx

  • i don't really understand the song but she has a beautiful voice

  • Comment removed

  • i read the lyrics i guess it's about a woman who doesn't get enough affection from her man and she's suffering and wants him or she wants to leave him. "love me or lose me forever." anyway beautiful song

  • I think there's multiple meanings to the song. It could also be about abuse or rape, like perhaps a young girl being beaten and molested by her father, or something. It's touching either way, I love the song

  • kind of sounds like domestic violence, I'm not sure though

  • I love her! We danced to this in my lyrical class....it made me cry...and they use this on the ASPCA commercials....

  • thats y i wanna become a vet

  • wow

  • Her voice is so beautiful it hurts...and it makes me wanna cry its so pretty

  • this music makes me cry =-(

  • panemorfo,,,,,,,,,,,,,

  • This song is from the album Ophelia, released in 1998, three years after her first solo album Tigerlily (1995).

  • My dad is suffering now... and he told me that i should listen to this song... He is at the hospital now :(

  • This is the FIRST TIME I've ever heard this song (I'm 33) and I can't find words to describe it. Purely amazing, absolutely beautiful.

  • no matter how many times i here this, it still gives me goose bumps.

    love it

  • Kiss me now and catch your death

    hThat's my favorite line

  • what's "catch your death" mean?

  • you hear the phrase said in english movies. as you can catch a cold you can catch what will kill you there by catching your death.  stay well :)

  • i neva heard that phrase

  • SNIIFFFF :'(

  • I've just discovered the song and is definitely one of my favorites. The video is also pretty good.

  • this is my one of my fav songs but i cant find it on the internet like the song plz reply back and tell me where you got it from

  • I have the CD with it. I can send you the mp3 if you will give your e-mail address. Greetings.

  • One of my favorite songs too! ;D

  • Totally one of my most fav songs ever.

  • This video conveys the emotions perfectly, you're very talented!

  • Wow really captivating video. It went perfectly with the song.

  • that is the most wonderful adaptation of ANY artists music I have EVER seen here...well done...I am deeply moved.

  • wow you're very talented.

  • this is wonderful, you did a great job. is there any way i could get a download of this?

  • wow this is very well done and with perfect song choice.

  • She has the voice of an angel....thx for posting!

  • You've got some really powerful imagery here - it's almost dream-like in some places. I think you would do well as an artistic film maker, where you make a story with a film rather than just piecing something together to go with a song.

  • i alwasy cry when i hear this song

    great job on the video!

    <33

  • Heather I'm sorry you are very wonderful to me . And you never say anything stupid. you are very wonderful to my heart. I wish I was with you that I could wipe away your tears and show you how dear you are to my heart. I'm sorry sob you mean so much to me and nothing you can say could ever change that. You are everything to me. I miss you.

  • Great vid, but is it official? I don't see Natalie Merchant anywhere, unless she was that girl 1.35 approx.

  • I know you wrote the comment 3 months ago, so I don't know if you still care lol

    But I don't think it's official - it uses a short clip from the movie The Shining, at 2:36. Plus, this song never became a single.

  • Its really sad..but really addictive too...cant get it out my head :)

  • how beautifully depressing this song is.

  • it´s simply great...

  • It's quite good, though it loses its way between the approx. 3-4 min mark before finding its feet again.

  • i dont think it is. i think i saw the smae video somewhere else on youtube and the description said it wasn't official. it's still amazing

  • I dont care if its offical or not... I love it

  • is it??

  • isn't this an official video clip?

  • I don't think it's official, because it uses clips from the movie The Shining.

  • Hummm. Ok.. tks dysis
