The Bravest Man I Ever Knew - Ministry of Magic Lyrics

[PokemonCreator99]

i almost cry when ever i watch/listen to this!

[TheJadiea]

I heart severus snape. He got the credit he deserved......and now we know he wasn't a black-hearted git like we all thought.

[PokemonCreator99]

did snape have to die? 8(

he was 1 of my favorite character's.

i did cry a little.

[DarkBayHorse1]

Nearly made me cry. Snape has always been my favorite character. We will all miss him dearly!!<3

[TheBookWorm48]

I got on at 12:00..it's now 4:39. I've been listening this song for the whole time.

[AlexGirlYeah]

I cried for way to long when he died... HE'S AMAZING! If they screw up the Prince's Tale in the movie, I'm kicking some ass

[KeswickCamp08]

"Dont...piss...me....OFF" is how snape would say it.... did you know that there are improve scenes in HP!?? like in CoS "Mr. Malfoy" says something like "Lets hope mr potter is always around to save the day" and Dan Radcliffe says "Dont worry... i will be" those were not in the script, and they thought up the lines on the spot. but the director let it stay. :D i think that scene really kinda paved the story X)

[beautifulcinthya]

i love you

[yamifannetje]

Good for Lily she never knew which great wizard she let go!

[Claesf93]

j adore

[Vampirebloodthirst]

My Mom and I saw a car with a bumber sticker that said 'I trust Snape" last year.

[kimoniki21]

@Vampirebloodthirst O_O  ....ON TO E-BAY!!!

[Vampirebloodthirst]

Snape is my favorite character and I can relate to him better then with the other characters (although my Brother thinks I'm a little bit like Luna). I'm even in love with my best friend. I writing a poem about Snape and I plan on making a video of Snape fan art with me reading it and upload it to here on youtube.

[yamifannetje]

@Vampirebloodthirst Never matter your brother's opinion! I know so well what you mean. Just make that video!

[15taileddemonwolfIta]

@Vampirebloodthirst I know the feeling.

[babyzoe1998]

I love this song!!!!!!!!!! And it makes me wanna cry because it makes me remember what happens in the chapter when he dies and when i read that i legit cried!!

[SuiteJM15]

Snape really was so brave. He did something even though it meant that everyone would hate him

[PrudesCanBiteMe]

I think the best part about Snape's character is he is neither perfectly good or completely evil. A person like him was necessary for the HP series. Much like Judas' to Jesus, Harry Potter had to have a betrayer and that was Severus. When Snape told the prophesy to Voldemort, he unknowingly gave up his only friend and created a path that led him to play double agent. I hate that Snape died in the books, but this song is a perfect tribute to him. I will most definately cry in Part Two of HP7.

[kimoniki21]

@PrudesCanBiteMe I Know What You Mean. I'm Bring Two Packs Of Tissues With Me. Seriously. Did You Hear About The New Thing that J.K. Is Doing To Severus? There Might Be Hope Left!!! *sobs*

[PrudesCanBiteMe]

@kimoniki21 What is Rowling doing to Severus? I haven't heard anything about it.

[kimoniki21]

Andrew Ackland-Snow, the art director for the Harry Potter franchise, has revealed that Severus Snape will have a death scene in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 2 which is different from what's found in the book.  CONTINUED NEXT POST!

[kimoniki21]

@PrudesCanBiteMe "We wanted to change a bit where Snape dies. In the book, he dies on the Shrieking Shack, and we wanted to get him out from, not a conventional interior, but from that kind of box, to do it in a more dramatic atmosphere.  CONTINUED NEXT POST

[kimoniki21]

@PrudesCanBiteMe e asked J.K. if she agreed for that to happen in there, because we hadn't really seen it before. We made a crystal house, and you can see what happens in the boat house from there - Are you listening Harry? -, but also the school is in flames...and she loved it. Besides, it's a very romantic place to die. Snape dies in a extremely good way, I gotta say."

[PrudesCanBiteMe]

@kimoniki21 Its definately going to be something to look out for.

[fanficaddict96]

@kimoniki21 well, at the very least if they have to mess up the movie, they can at least give snape, the bravest man that ever lived, a more fitting death scene. though this doesn't make up for HBP!!!!!!!!!!!!

[riverdem0n]

Must...Not...Cry...Gah!

[slyrocks3]

CHARACTERS THAT DIED: Dumbledore, Sirius, Snape, Hedwig, Dobby, Fred, Moody, GOD WTF?! And I think there's still more!

[mozartviolinfan]

@slyrocks3 Don't forget Lupin and Tonks. :(

[slyrocks3]

@mozartviolinfan Yeah, they were awesome too..

[jozita]

Just like Harry told Albus Severus... "He was the bravest man I ever knew" <3

Long Live SEVERUS SNAPE ❤

[kimoniki21]

@jozita *raises glass* HERE, HERE!!

[slyrocks3]

J.K. Rowling has serious problems killing off ALL the good characters! Dumbledore, Sirius, AND SNAPE! WTF!?

[kissmrule]

i so lvoe this video it so cool and sweet

[slyrocks3]

must..not..cry..Snape wouldn't allow..it..WAAAAAAAAH!!!! *sucks in breath* Okay..I'm good...

[VampAndWerewolfGirl]

omj, this song totally makes me cry <3

[GriffonFortelli]

I almost cried at 'always'

[4twilighter]

Lilly should have forgotten about the mudblood thing and mirrie Snape instead of that arrogant Potter

[4twilighter]

Lilly should have just forgoten about the mudblodd thing and marrie Snape!

[dancestar71]

I LUV U SNAPE !!!

[Lyricz74]

<3 Just thinking about his death brings tears to my eyes. If anyone deserved a happy ending, he did.

R.I.P.

[chazfourlife]

its never too late too change

[KyraDragon]

And he was, probably, the bravest man...I ever knew...

[MissLaRo]

Severus Snape is my role model, no matter how hard something is to do, that it may even cause death, he did it, just to protect harry

[ShnapeykinsForever]

I love Severus. He's just so awesome. It's so sad he had to die. :'( WHY???? WHY DO THIS THINGS HAPPEN???? *blows nose*

[cavlikcavli]

Go Snape. To hell with Harry Potter, Snape's the real hero. 

[theslytherinroze]

I actually cried about this. I love this song, and Severus Snape has always be the Bravest man I ever knew. I always thought he was a good guy. "One of them was a slytherin. And he is probably, the bravest man I ever knew." I agree with you marisadepp.

[awatchfinder]

When I see his story on the movie screen I will be a waterfall of tears.

Love Sev! <3

[IdaHelen00]

Albus Severus, you were known for two headmasters at Hogwarts. One of them was a Slytherin and he was probably the bravest man I ever knew. <3

[mallk10]

Everyone's saying that they always knew he was the good guy. But you can't say you didn't doubt him a bit when he killed Dumbledore. Because by that point no one really knew which side Snape was on.

[JackieSnape80]

@mallk10 Maybe for most people, I was always on Snape's side. I was kinda upset when he killed Dumbledore, yes, but I was determined to believe that Snape was right, and that J.K. Rowling wouldn't have Snape be a bad guy. She created to much depth and concern for the character to do that...at least, to me. Severus had the most upsetting death death, but I truly cried when his memories proved to everyone that he *was* always good. Wow, sorry about the length...didn't expect that... ^_^' (TWSS)

[ChristianBrinsxox]

I love Snape. I knew he was good, I always trusted him. Harry is a prat and I'm glad he finally grew up and realised that being bitter and heart-broken doesn't make you evil.

[OmishuKitsuni]

i always cry at the "'cause with his last breath, Severus said, 'take it, take it!'" because i can just imagine him begging for a swift end to it all x'C we love you snape-a-doodle!

[evb615]

Luv the Ministry of magic!!!!

[aramis0192]

Alan Rickman .... is absolute legend

[tubbyflip]

Nice! I love how no one "disliked" this video. :D

[dragoncharm1]

This song is so amazing. Snape WAS the bravest character in the entire series, in my opinion. He had the hardest job to do - being a spy, having to endure everyone thinking he's evil, not knowing his real purpose, and he never even got to be victorious...all he did, and he died a man hated by everyone. No wonder he was so bitter in the books, with the burden he had to bear. I love Snape, it's so sad he died...his memories are one of my favorite parts of DH, they prove he was good all along...<3

[SHENAKU]

@dragoncharm1 SHOWS WHAT HE REALLY WAS SEEKING and why he was doing what he was. Not for gain, worship, credit or honor but love and for the greater good.

[pixieobsession411]

awwe i wanna cry now

[ckurtz1013]

beautiful completely true

[TheMrsPotter1]

poor snape...i hate how in the books they make him seam mean...but on the inside he always was nice :) even though he got made fun of by harrys dad he still saved harry so many times :( thats so nice:( Harry should have thought more of snape they always accused him of things...:( and i told my friend snape dies and my friend was lik.."YES!!!" and im like how is that good and she just didnt understand how great and brave he was :) R.I.P snape <3

[mudbloodandproud25]

@TheMrsPotter1 He didn't him seem mean, he was, despite what a good person he was. Even if he did help Harry or save his life 24/7, he was mean 2 him. he did have his reasons to be bitter & cruel sometimes, tho. he lost his true love & then she was killed, & now 1 of his students is the son of the man who stole her heart. I'm not saying he wasn't one of the bravest & true characters of the entire series, I'm just saying, he was mean. I do love his character with all my heart, though.

[TheMrsPotter1]

0:05-0:10 soo funny but that still is sad....R.I.P snape :(

[rosefan12]

its:

no matter the way or mistake you've made

not no matter the where mistake you've made, that doesn't make sense

[AnimesMyDrug]

I'm 90% positive that when the new movies come out, and I watch the unfortunate scene, I'll cry.

[mudbloodandproud25]

@AnimesMyDrug I'm 100% positive. I'm a big ol' softie for sad scenes.

[RoonilzW]

Im crying. I love Snape with all my heart!

[lifeisinmyhandz]

so so sad snape is awsome!

[stsars13]

Snape we miss ya! XD He was so kick ass...

[AllisonluvsGoodMusic]

was that a dog bark?

[nobodybutsomebody100]

He really was the bravest man i ever new...he risks his live for harry...he writes history...I love Severus Snape

[IAmPotterPrincess]

Makes me cry... He really was the bravest man I ever knew. He never got the credit he deserved.

[R12A3E]

@IAmPotterPrincess I totally agree. But he did get the credit he deserved. Right at the end when Harry was sitting with him. Snape's entire purpose was to protect Harry because he made a promise to Lily. At the end, when Harry captured Severus's memories in that tear, Harry gave him all the credit and reward he wanted and deserved. RIP Severus!! We always knew that you were good!!

[KeswickCamp08]

Harry was WRONG.........finally, like the 2nd time in his life. i miss and hate snape.

[KeswickCamp08]

why so many thumbs downs??? he WAS wrong, and we all fallowed him! we all thought Snape was an evil jerk that hated harry......well, he was a jerk, but he was trying to protect harry.

[KeswickCamp08]

i just finished the book for the 2nd or 3rd time :'( this song is what i was thinking of while i was reading "the Prince's Tale"

[KeswickCamp08]

no wonder hes always so d*mn grouchy!!

[SilverBerenznoff23]

A true tribute for a true wizard, I

- and many other Severus fans-

Thank you

[ShnapeykinsForever]

I am 1313hahaha's other account just so people know :D

Anyway, u know what i jsut thought of? Severus' last breath wasnt take it, he said "look at me".

[xzapsx]

@ShnapeykinsForever

I love that line, RiddleTM uses that for a song called "Look at me" it's probably one of the sweetest wrock songs ever =]

[KarenEames]

That is literaly true but "look at me" was so Harry would take his memories-know the truth

[morriskellyj]

And so he could look at Lily's eyes one last time :(

[ruler102]

I cried for ages when Snape died and then even more when I found out he loved Lily.

[PokemonCreator99]

ruler102 you didin't know snape loved lily?

[1313hahaha]

I'm in love with Severus, and I almost hate J.K. for killing him. But I don't.

Man, Severus was a real martyr for the Greater Good. (the real Greater Good!)

I always cry when I read the part in the book when Severus says his Patronus has always been the doe. :'(

[Alou926]

i know me too!!!

[ivon10fan]

I love this song because I love Snape, I always trust him, even at the end of HP6. And he put his life in danger to help Harry, I mean, he Didn't like Harry, but he did it anyway, just for Lily. He was indeed the bravest man I ever knew

[acsapinheiro]

I LOVE YOU SNAPE! you are The Bravest Man I Ever Knew

[sbabeeee]

I do

[MissSectumsempra]

I Think harry and ginny shou;d have names one of their kids Fred, anyone else agree?

[pythonfan001]

george did.

[MissSectumsempra]

Severus is an amazing charachter, i almost cant believe hes fictional, when u read him, he sounds so real, i never doubted that dumbledore was right about trusting him, there had to be reasons, and i knew there were. x

[1313hahaha]

MissSectumsempra: me too, even when Snape killed Dumbledore you can't help but trust him.

[mvapj]

When ever i hear this, I cry, Im so sad of what happened to him in DH. He was an amazing person! And i cry when Harry talks about him in the epilouge.

LONG LIVE SEVERUS!!! xD

[severusislove]

"will goodness be the banner you raise, cause with his last breath, severus said "take it, take it,"..

living in disguise,a true wizard on the inside, not afraid of what he had to do, he was the bravest man i ever knew .."

those lines always make me feel like crying ..

[xKiryuZerox]

L-O-V-E Severus Snape! I true wizard on the inside. And the bravest man i ever knew.

[unnursvana]

Snape is one of the best written charcter sin history

I agree with you these lines always makes me too ^^

[Sabrina7722772]

how is my comment spam?

i am insulted.

[Treemeadow]

I never doubted him. I knew he was going to have reasons, and I could see the way Dumbledoore thinks. I never doubted you, Severus,

Hey, lol, you can tell the diehard Snape fans from the other sort-of fans and people who just see him as another character-

Fans call him Severus XD

[katjohannsen]

I find that few people actually did trust Severus to the extent I did- but I loathed him for over a week after he killed DD. No longer. A lot of people find 'albus severus' touching. I think Sev would have loved the irony, being a walking paradox himself.

[Alexa93artaker]

I LOVE U SEV !!! :-*

[ACKMACKE]

that was so beautiful, I nearly cried!

[littlenightfox]

im gonna cry each time i hear this song now ;___; good job! Snape! your our #1 Wizard!!

[xXalexandra95Xx]

omg lovelovelove snape *cries* such a beatyful song TT ^ TT snape is forever in my heart ;__;

[LilyLilyLilyPotter]

its when the last part, "Always" sings when i feel tears sting my eyes.

[stampsme]

Lol i went shopping today and when i was pushing the trolley it felt like i was going onto platform 9 3/4.

[OHRLYGRLZ]

Erm, actually...with his last breath, Severus said "Look...at...me..."

But I still adore this song! I never believed Sev was a Death Eater, not for one second. He is a wonderful, dynamic character. Snape was an integral part of saving the wizarding world =)

WE LOVE YOU, SEV!!

[annelieseB]

With these kind of things you need creative license :D

[stampsme]

Snape had to do what he had to do. Dumbledore told him to kill him when the time was right and he did.

[animeluver45]

I know, Snape is the person I admire most in the series, I love him.

[LilyLilyLilyPotter]

i completely agree. i luv severus.

[annelieseB]

Everytime I hear this song (and Snape Vs Snape) I want to cry! Because Snape was so awesome! And the fact is, Snape was absolutely the bravest man because he went against everything he knew, and he was always with Voldemort, he risked SO much if Voldemort had ever found out.

[whiteash002]

@stampsme Anybody else getting this message randomly in their livejournals?

[stampsme]

@whiteash002 What do you mean?

[whiteash002]

@stampsme I have now gotten two posts from this exact video posted to my livejournal. By spam bots. It's really, really weird.

[stampsme]

@whiteash002 I dont have livejournal so i dont.

[kitkat1327]

@whiteash002 I've had lyrics to this song show up in my own LJ, and then I saw something similar in another LJ comm.

So weird.

[LowSodiumSweetJesus]

Dude.

This took harry potter way too fucking far, i think i just died from listening to this song and sorry but Snape's a douche. Even thought yeah your right...technically he was instructed to kill Dumbledore....................­...........fail. but oh my god

i just need to die this took it too far

[stampsme]

Whats the cd called? I need this song on my Ipod!

[annelieseB]

Same! *cries*

[annelieseB]

I never thought Snape was truly evil :D And I was right.

*sob* SEV!!!!!

[Mudbloody267]

Same, when he was explaining why he was still a Death Eater in book 6, I was thinking, Bullshit, I never gave up on him for a second, even though my friend was like, "Face it, he's evil, he explained it all." I was like #"Nope, I refuse to believe that he's betrayed Dumbledore, she laughed at me and said I was stupid, than we brought the last book, we both read it all in one night, we met up the next day, and you can't believe how stupid she looked, than who was laughing huh, lol

[annelieseB]

Hehehe yeah, me and my mum were both convinced Snape wasn't evil. The flicker of hate in his eyes? Dumbledore never said 'Please, Severus, no', he only said 'Severus, please'. All the evidence was there.

[Naroutolover]

Who wrote this song and where can I get it?!

[aziangr1]

ministry of magic. they've got a CD out. other than that idk.

[Naroutolover]

ok thanks.

[emilyann82]

This song makes me cry, poor Snape. I love him :(

[ladytasciovan]

Brillant.. thanks for making the video.

[marisadepp]

Twilight got overrated, fast. Harry Potter's amazingness will always survive. I almost don't want DHp2 to come out cause I don't want to see Sev die!

[nelgracey]

i think i;ll cry when DH part 2 comes out because sev. and bella both die amd this song makes me want to cry.

[LynseyIsL]

This song makes me cry everytime I watch it! Cant wait to see you on the 14th Sev! LONG LIVE SEVERUS SNAPE!!!

[jaspertwilight1]

LONG LIVE SEVERUS SNAPE

[385Casey]

I know his childhood nickname.

His hair color.

I know his name i know his personality! I know why he died.. Do I know that about you? No. And fuck off! If you hate HP don't comment... And go in a fire and don't come out -.-

[whiteash002]

@385Casey This post by you just showed up in my livejournal by a bot. What the hell.

[385Casey]

@whiteash002 Okiee.. That's kind of odd.

[dxgirl7861]

Heard of twilight?

Yeah, Edwards the Fag.

Why are you fighting if your a firefighter?

You have some bad vocabulary for some one who is so "Brave"

Why the fuck are you commenting on this?

If you hate it so much why waste your time..

Go save a cat from a tree.

I fucking love this song. And the meaning.

Imgonna be crying when part two of DH comes out :(

And Snape is real. I know his child hood, his nickname and his reason for dying. For his true love- Lily Potter. Fuck off TheValeFan.

[jaspertwilight1]

I HATE TWILIGHT NOW! This song is really touching in one way or another

"a true wizard on the inside. not afraid of what he had to do"

[atlbroad]

i love this song it is really good and I love snape

[BojanaLoveJesse]

amazing song. reallly.

Snape <3

[gondegoogoo]

This is so touching! Severus Snape was indeed very brave...:) Rock on Snape!:)

[jaspertwilight1]

"Albus Severus, you were named after two headmasters of Hogwarts.One of them was in Slytherin and he was probably the bravest man I ever knew."

[endematic]

*book

wait. severus snape isn't real?

what do you mean real?

how do i know you're real? i know snape's name, his hair color, his childhood nickname, his personality. i don't know any of those things about you.

maybe severus snape is real and you're not!

[dxgirl7861]

Not a film. A book retard

And this is a fucking awsome character at that!

He is braver than any shit youll do XD

Just like some fags fall in love with edward

we fall in love with Severus Snape

:)

[kt27rule]

i love this video it so cool and so sad and so love this man

[animeluver45]

I know I cry whenever I think of Snape. I'll especially be crying when the DH Part 2 comes out.

[SHENAKU]

@animeluver45 I WILL BE CRYING TO BUT INSIDE LOLS BECAUSE I ALWAYS REPRESS CRYING IN PUBLIC... OOPS CAPS

[jrocknpoppingirl]

@animeluver45 oh, I think all of us will be...

[wannabealuna]

Love the compilation.

Just fyi, it's "No matter the way or mistake you've made." It's hard to understand right there. I had to look it up myself. Another one is "Will goodness be the banner you raise".

I always try to get the new lyrics off their myspace page. I think I might have all of them now, except maybe for the new ones.

[xiloveRiverphoenix]

This song has 3251 plays on my ipod :)

I just absolutely love love love love love it so much!

and of course i love severus too :)

good video :D

5/5

[Painfoot]

haha that is amazing

It is a great song...

[hptwilighter]

Awesome!! That's one of my favorite songs!! (And of course MoM IS my favorite band!) Great font and great clips/pics.

:)
