this song is so beautiful i think we r so lucky to be able to hear stevens voice God Bless u steven and ty for the wonderful music u gave us in the past,u will never be forgotten ur voice will be with us forever R.I.p xxxxxxx
loved to have seen steven and ronan singing this live on tv. shame we'll never see it. they are great live, sounding better than the record at times. Loved the live version of better when they sang it on tv.
Heard this 2 wk ago, and not being a massive boyzone fan, didnt recognise them, still thought it a very good and beautiful song, with nice opening vocals from steven gately, deserves to be a hit on its own merit.
This Song is a beutifully done tribute to Stephen Gately may he R.I.P Gone but not Forgetten my prayers are with the rest of the Boyzone members and the family of Stephen Gately God Bless you guys
I love the song and think the Boyz have made a fitting tribute to Stephen, who lived to be part of Boyzone. He just adored every single second of it. Those who are moaning about money, actually the royalties will go to Mika as it is his song and he will make his own decision about what happens then. The Boyz have done the right thing - and I suspect thoughts of money or the sad way in which some people may respond will not have mattered to them one little bit.
THEY ARE NOT CASHING IN ON THERE PALS DEATH. stephen loved this song and was very excited about the new album, that is why they hav decided to release them

I have to say I am totally discusted cashing in on there pals death and using there grief in this way is discusting. My heart went out to these lads when they lost there mate now they make me sick. even had they gave all the money to some charity wouldnt have been half as bad but creaming there own pockets is wrong. I am not one bit surprised at ronan he will make money any way he can but the others I just dont know.

i heard this on me way 2 work monday mornin its a luvly song just rite 4 boyzone but the 1st line wiv our little darlin stephen was just so poignant & had me in tears even tho i no its happened i still struggle wiv his dyin luv u stephen
Thats a stupid comment to make, the lads are really devestated on the loss of there brother, and they made this video to pay tribute to a much loved and missed bandmate and brother.

Way to go Boyzone. Cashing in on the death of a loved one. Total exploitation in order to milk every bit of publicity for the new song. Shame on you. Ronan must be plotting a contract hit on Mikey as we speak which should result in a further 10 Million sales.
I wasnt a BZ fan...tho loved their music and I whn I heard bout Stephen death I actually cried ( and I grew up with MJ n didnt shed a tear for his death) but 4 Stephen it wasnt suppose to happen to him so young.....and hearing this choked me lets get ths to NO1 for Stephen...PS Mikey loved ur ice dancing.....
@EcoTriGem Apparently, Mika had given the song to Boyzone to record in 2007...so maybe he never considered it for himself? I think Boyzone have done a great job at it though, and Stephen Gately and Mika sound quite alike too.
He gave it to Boyzone, but then decided he wanted it for himself, they were trying to get it back when Stephen passed away and after that Mika let them have it back, or something like that.
Mika gave it back only a few weeks before Stephen's death , it's not Stephen's death that made him change his mind ! AND he wouldn't have accepted him singing "I will learn to live before I die"... And I'm happy he changed his mind cuz this song is written for a band
Keith Duffy revealed how a chance meeting with songwriter Mika in Los Angeles resulted in Boyzone being given his blessing to re-work the song and finally release it.
"Stephen was always singing and this was one of his favourite songs," Duffy told Sky News Online.
"After he died we went to LA and bumped into Mika.
"Ronan had coffee with him and the next day we had a call to say that the song was ours. It was like Stephen was smiling down on us."
oh well that surprises me .But all the same , imagine mika after bumping into them still refused giving them the song...he must have been shocked by Stephen's early death like we all were
OMG Thankyou for posting this. I cried all the way through this. Lovely song. It's just had to think that this is the last song as Boyzone as we knew them and possibly the last single they release as a band. Mika was right to let the Boyz have this song. What a fitting Tribute to Steo, GOne but will never be forgotten. -X- RIP Steo
It's a nice song with beautiful vocals. But I was really hoping for an uptempo song like So Good, Together or Picture of You. Don't want them to be a ballad group. But it is beautiful and I think and hope it will do well.
It went to more music and then news, never heard anymore after that, so sorry now, but if you go to magic's website they have a link to listen his whole show again.
Ok, thanks for letting me know! Unfortunately I live outside the UK and the Magic player won't work for me, that's why I was so excited that you took the time to post the song because I was anxiously waiting to hear it! Thanks again!
I hope these are the right lyrics.... ...if anyone can tell diffrent let me know pls:-) BOYZONE - GAVE IT ALL AWAY I...... Will learn to live befor i die. Will learn to live and learn to try. Not to give it all away. She.... Maybe the one thats meant for me. Or for the man i used to be be. Till i gave it all away. Why i i i ,I Lay my heart down on floor. I showed you love but you wanted more ore ore But i Gave it all away. i i i i cry i i i
what happen to this group??
