  • I love this man so much. He is the sexiest man in music. His voice is so smooth that it sounds like it is melting. I would kiss his feet if I had the opportunity. This song can speak to everyone regarding some situation or another that we are grieving, not just death.

  • RIP my daddy..Died when I was only 10...He is still in my heart. And I will never ever forget! :(

  • @petrakovamartina I'm sorry for your loss...but I hope this song brings you some peace in it's simple beauty, honesty, and emotional truth.

  • to my love who died Jan. 23,2012 at my home. i grieve for you Gregg Smigelsky and so does your dog, Honey. it is hard to live without u. RIP, loving you still.

  • RIP ~William R. Montgomery~ November 9 1953 - March 1, 2010. I miss you, and I'm sorry.

  • I have no emotional story to attach to this song, i just really love it. A lot.

  • Una de las mas hermosas canciones de peter.

    el cambio de ritmo del final, significa que los que quedamos vivos tenemos que seguir adelante.

    Gracias Peter

  • My master Gabriel.

  • after spending 13 yrs with a man i love more then life its self, he is gone. I miss him like crazy but i have to carry on for our daughter. RIP my Babe

  • @tmace416

    your strong xx

  • @MrStanley4me I'm trying to be :)

  • This song is amazing, but towards the end it goes strangely different.

  • @ActuallyLiam the artist does that on purpose to show that once you move on you arent going to feel depressed. hence the upbeat and happy sound towards the end.

  • Can one grieve so for a little dog? My Millie is gone from me. She was my best friend. She depended on me and in the end I had to put her down....liver cancer. She looked into my eyes....I was the last person she saw and her eyes went blank. A look I'll never forget. And DAMN I grieve. And I miss her so.

  • This is a good song, but it looses me at the end of it. Too dramatic of a change.

  • @YOitsJarin peter made that change to show that grieving shouldnt be forever and once you move on you should feel happy. hence the upbeat and happy sound at the end.

  • @moses1007 Good point.

  • This song, is really so intense and accurate. I love it but it's hard to listen to after loosing someone to death... RIP<3

  • Music...the brandy of the damned ! George Bernard Shaw hit the nail on the head there.

  • não tenho palavras para explicar essa musica, só sei que toca minha alma profundamente e meu coração e linda demais...♥.

  • this song was released in 2002?

  • If ever there was a clear cut example of musical therepy, this is IT.

  • I grieve and have done all my life...

  • ps i guest i don,t to want to get close to anyone.

  • all my family is dead.and i have no friends

  • @myvampire3000

    I hope you can find a community to support you because personally in my opinion loneliness sucks...but whatever you choose to do socially I hope it gets better.

  • One of the best songs by Peter Gabriel.

  • reminds me a lost love ..10 years ago.. I grieve with this song.. they told that eventually I will forget.. but I never forgot it..

  • @rube0075 - i hope its not gonna happen with me:(

  • @rube0075 you will never forget.

  • reminds me a lost love ..10 years ago.. I grieve with this song..

  • That song makes the lost much harder :\

  • this song is about moving on , still life carries on ...........love it !

  • a very moving song.

  • When my father fell very ill and things were not looking good for him, I personally e-mailed Peter Gabriel asking permission to use this song in the funeral; I recieved an e-mail back from one of his people expressing his personal condolences and that "yes" I had permission to use this song...it really meant alot to me.

  • the best wonderful song and movie. wonderful and sad both. :)

  • es.....

  • My dad died 25 hours ago.  I have never felt the words of this song like I do today.

  • @TheDelvaughn My prayers go out to you. Honestly.

  • @TheDelvaughn

    Hey, I've never wrote someone I don't know, I don't mess around on the computer much. I listened to this song over andover when my mother died last year. I am a cowboy from Wyoming. I try to be a man of strength and honor at all times. It was the thing that broke me for a while. Who ever you are I just prayed for you to be given strength and peace. May the Lord greet your father with open arms.

  • @cbrown7651 Thank you so much. Facing my first holiday without Dad is going to be SO tough, so I'll take the prayers of a cowboy from Wyoming right now. Thank you.

  • One of the most depressing songs I've ever heard.

  • First time I heard this song was a few days after my Gran died. It was exactly how i felt and every time I hear it I'm reminded of how much she meant to me and how much I still miss her. This song will always have a special place in my life.

  • this song is soo sad, but i dont know why it makes me feel peaceful, thats why i loooove listening to it!

  • 9/11 Always with You, always with Us.

  • Este mensaje es de Sofia: Hola amor... cuidate...te extraño....muacksssssss

  • Just the right thing then, Is ok now

  • Just the right thing then, Is ok now...

  • I can very much relate to this song, my father died the same month the cd was released, & personally this song helped me to move on. Time is a healer but life does go on. Believe.

  • When Peter signs "I grieve for you" at 3:55 is beautiful, this has always been one of my quiet favorite tunes, good to keep in your mental index of great songs.

  • Nicholas cage is so amazing..

  • what a powerful song, it amazes me how simple it is for memories to come back to you when you hear music

  • I play this song all the time, thinking about my loved ones that i've lost. Towards the end, I find the strength to move forward and live on. ^^

  • I am in Joplin Missouri after the tornado. I love this song. It somehow seems fitting to the people of Joplin. God bless them all and stay strong.

  • @sarakinissj "tornado"? Where are you from, sarakinissj?

  • simplemente algo tan romantico no hay; llena huecos que no los puede llenar nada.

  • ..heart wrenching...

  • I 'm not a big Peter Gabriel fan, but this song really speaks. One of his better and undoubtedly most underrated works. And a beautiful movie to boot.

  • it always haunts me how a peice of music can stir such emotion in us. but when ever we lose someone so close.. make there memory live on.. remember them in laughter .and in everything they did. they may not be with us to see each day but they will always wrap there arms round you when you need them.........

  • I don't know what's worse: Losing someone you love to death, knowing he or she is gone forever or having the love of your life leave you and you have that continuous nagging feeling of what may have been and that she might come back.....both happened to me and it is equally hard to fill the whole in my heart....but this song helps me to deal with the holes in my heart. Thanks for posting! And to everyone who lost someone regardless of how: I feel your pain!!

  • nearly 100k views and no dislike. thats worth. awesome song.

  • For my mom, who passed away Tuesday March 1 2011 to a particularly aggressive form of stomach cancer.  RIP!

  • @WaterboyPhx im so sorry.... my boyfriend was killed in a car accident in august of last year and its still hard to get over.... i hope you and your family the best, -hugs- just keep pushin through, you can make it, itll be hard but you can do it

  • i luv it  duffey

  • I let the love of my life walk out of my life, I had pick drugs over him...and now that I'm sober I relized what I did. I may have not lost him to death but I lost him due to my own fault. he has moved on and Im still here wishing I had one more chance.. I not only Grieve over him but I Grieve for myself and who I was before..Now Im just trying to take life one day at a time..Life does carries on....

  • I just want to have someone before I go... just that.

  • @Yrathir me too. :)

  • I love this song. It's so powerful and peaceful.

  • "um dia antes de morrer devemos amar e ser amados por um desconhecido que invada nossa alma como se fosse dono e retire seu ar como te sufocasse somente com o olhar,.. um arrepio que sobe pela coluna só de vc ver a pessoa amada,.. uma lágrima que vence a resistência e cai qdo vc simplesmente esta longe ...

  • @jjcvalepiso precious

  • This song also helped me go through some hard times...

  • Music reaches out to all . Regardless of colour, religion or beliefs. When you lose someone you heart breaks..same way as a christian, a muslim or a jew or buddhist. let's all try and remember that we are all human..all with one heart. Let's cherish one another because we only live once... love to all of you.x

  • Lost my best friend who was 28, my favorite Uncle was 47, a daughter at 2months, just found out my sister is stage 4 and inoperable at 40, there are a great many more tragic early losses... There is an ache that life wont end for me yet. I play this in the hopes that I can grieve. I cant. I start to and feel silly. Oh well.

  • Funny how everyone has a different meaning for a song, my daughter got taken from me and just cant connect, this song fits us too! I had her until 6 yrs. old and her dad ran w/ her till 13 yrs old, gained custody again but this song has been our life!!!

  • My best friend was killed over 10 years ago in an accident. I used to play this song over and over. The world had swallowed me up and had become too big and dark. This totally comforted me. You never know what grief is until someone you love is killed.

  • @missoldglory1 Im sorry. I know the feeling, but not the same situation. But its amazing what something like music is able to do. It can help cause or intensify emotions, and it can help heal them. That's especially what great music can do!

  • @missoldglory1 ♥(((Hugs)))♥

  • @missoldglory1

    I lost the love of my life on March 31st 2010 and It has not gotten any easier. My heart breaks everyday. I put a smile on my face and carry on for our 16 yr old daughter but inside Im dieing every day

  • @missoldglory1 I lost my beautiful partner three and a half years ago in a work accident. The man of my dreams finally came along late in life only to leave me. Am so broken, I just cannot let go and move on, may be still early. We had been travelling and sometimes working around Australia, the most magic life. I not only lost him but an entire way carefree happy way of life. I grieve..

  • @sapphire60s I am so sorry for your loss. I feel lost too, and know not how I will ever be okay. I believe in God and know he will heal me but I don't know how to go on living, right now. My daughter was murdered almost 3 weeks ago, while in Germany studying abroad, getting her Masters. She was only 23. I grieve.

  • @Apoc897 all the best in life with that level of maturity.. i don't see why you would comment on a song you clearly cannot relate to.

  • @missoldglory1 I'm sorry about your friend. I, too have lost several friends....4 to suicide. One was 4 years ago and three this year...It's so hard to make sense of a life cut short. I hope you are working through your grief. Life is a beautiful gift and I didn't appreciate what that gift was until my friends were gone. I wish for you peace, happiness, and more love to come, for "It is better to have loved and lost than to never love at all" <3

  • @missoldglory1 I am doing the exact same thing right now, my best friend was killed by a drunk driver a couple weeks ago in a tragic accident.

  • @missoldglory1 You are not alone. You grieve someone who's passed away. I'm grieving for a family, my family, they have no time for each other, we live on different continents, I tried to bring everyone together tonight but It's just ended in disaster. I just have to accept I will not have the loving family I've always wanted. But life carries on.

  • @missoldglory1

    >>>>> Very big of you putting your feelings out there' i admire ur passion for your parted friendship, i totally understand ( well understanding' recent loss ) <<<<<<

  • Teach the children well and ,,reality no matter how sad but must be taught early so we can learn

  • This is a beautiful song!!! I lost my boyfriend 3 months ago, and I feel such a spiritual connection with him when I hear this song... when the part of the song picks up it lifts me up entirely! I love him beyond this world.

  • I'm so sorry for your loss : /

  • It's so beautiful, my mother used to listen to it when my parents divorced. I was three years old but I can remember her listening to it all the time. It so agitating. Makes me wanna cry everytime I hear that song.

  • Comment removed

  • Such a hauntingly beautiful song - it fully captures the aching agony that comes with losing someone close. My mother died 6 months ago yesterday, and this has been getting a lot of play on my iPod. Grieving fully is important; it's the only way to get past the most acute pain, in my opinion. But there's no right or wrong way to grieve - follow your heart.

  • Vikkisnake....You've said it all. I got introduced to this tune by my long gone baby Serina....one of a kind must I add. Peace all of you.

  • I knew this song before I heard it.

  • Great song...absolutely horrible, horrible movie.

  • The last song that I listened.

  • i love this movie

  • @warrior100girl i can't stand it. sorry. i just hate the ending. movies, at least for me, should be an escape. life sucks, so i want a happy ending.  kind of sad and simple, i know, but still............

  • Ta piosenka mnie uspokaja

  • Beautiful/sad/jammin! I wish there was actual video though! But i still love the song. His voice is something! I just wish the jamming part was a little longer. lol the sad part (of course) was longer... it took up most of the song. lol

  • Beautiful/sad/jammin! I wish there was actual video though! But i still love the song.

  • no mamssss no les entiento caones

    

  • no mamessss no les entiento caones

  • This is a gorgeous song.

  • I have not hear this song for ages. I always loved it, and now I love more, as I am grieving for my little son...sleep tight, mummy and daddy love you so much!

  • when I was little, someone told me that a person is never the same after losing one of their parents. It is so true, because now, even after almost 4 years from my mom's death, nothing in me is the same and my family is not the same at all. Things have changed so much. But I will testify to one thing: God brought some good out of this huge pain. All bad things served for greater purposes. Life is amazing. Some say its crap, but the overall image is an breath-taking one.

  • I think I prefer the soundtrack version of this song to the version on Up.

  • Universally affecting.

  • Grampa, I grief for you <3

  • Such a haunting, beautiful masterpiece. So tragic and final until the beat picks up and we find redemption and rebirth in the "life goes on" theme of the final third.

  • this and mercy street are 2 of the most beautiful songs. Peter Gabriel is such a genius he has so much talent its astounding! His songs are just about love and losses, 2 things of which that dominate life.

  • Always been a favorite of mine. VERY good song.

  • i love this song.

  • The beat of the second half of the song throws me off.

  • I agree. This song is one that artists strive to achieve. The simplest expression that can reach ANYONE>

    I grieve....for you.

    You leave.....me. When my dad died...this is the sentiment that hung over me like a 2 ton weight for almost a year.

  • beautiful!!!

  • this is a great song. like you writing mastgerpiece is it. The movie is olso great. I thinks we ol whanne no how life is in heaven. Iff it's like this like in the movie than it's good.
