Such a beautiful song... I was introduced to this magnificent piece when a friend played it in the car after hearing it at a wedding. What an amazing song to walk down the aisle to.

i'm 13, when i listened to this i thought of my grandad and then remembered that i'll never get him back and start sobbing, i felt like a right nob but after i realized it proves i'm human and shows me how much he really meant to me.
A girl I've been seeing played this to me while we were lying around in bed on a cold rainy Saturday last week. At that moment I realised how I really felt about her. Two days later we heard she might have to leave the country forever. That night I hardly slept, I heard this song in my dreams, and when I woke up it was still in my head. I don't want her to leave.
This song is so profound... I can not help but wonder who I am in this world and I am here, are unanswered questions that arise when listening to this song, but that eventually end up transforming into broken dreams or dreams fulfilled, and then only in ... dust ... Share this blog, I want to be a writer or poet in my spare time, if you liked me like give him a comment and share this with your friends, I am Spanish and I have only 14 years... Looking for razonamientojoven.blogspot.com
I built a home, a life for me and my girlfriend. We are no longer... I didn't find this song.. it found me. For that, I give many thanks to what we know as "fate".
The lyric "There is a tree as old as me" always rang true to me - on the year I was born an aunt gave my parents some Christmas tree lights. For the next 26 years they never once stopped working, needed a bulb to be replaced or anything. I used to joke that the year they stopped, the following year would be my last.
this song gave me hope and helped me move on after hearing the death of my granddad last year without ever getting the chance to meet him and listen to him share his memories.....
I was looking up songs on spotify and came across this band... WOW what an amazing piece of music... Thank you Spotify for showing me this and thank you to whoever wrote this GEM
@4101930 Imo, the telling part is him refering to the cracks of the skin - I believe it refers to the broken parts of society. He has climbed to the top of the tree, but he did it using the cracks of the skin and not the branches, and he did so because he wanted to truly see the world as it was.
this is the most beautiful song ive ever heard.Just close your eyes and imagine your sitting in a tree and you can feel the touch of the wind,it makes you feel free.
Im 87 years old and thanks to my beloved grandson, i have discovered new music which has refreshed my youth. Thank you very much to my grandson Ernesto.
@hithereimnicolas You are not 87 years old. Your just trying to spam youtube, its quite easy to tell that your not 87 by looking at your page, your just an idiot spamming youtube trying to get extra thumbs up, faggot.
@TobsterMedia Here's how I read into it. He's posting from his grandson's youtube account. His grandson is named Nicolas, and he signed his commend with his own name, Ernesto. Try to open your mind a little more.
@hithereimnicolas A lot of older people seem to hate anything new because it lacks the nostalgia they have for what they experienced when they were younger.
@hithereimnicolas I am 30 years old and I have been avidly browsing youtube since it's beginning in 2005 and your comment it's the best one I've read EVER!!!!!!!!!!
The first time I listened to this song was in a Harry Potter video, I fell in love with the song instantly. Everytime I hear it, it reminds me how much I love Harry Potter. I will love this song forever!
@Irisslovess - I don't remember this from any Harry Potter film (and I'm quite a big fan). Could you please remind me in which film and what part this song was played? Thanks!
People who were fans of The cinematic Orchestra before they were featured in movies, Congratualtions. You found a wonderful music group but, dont be hating on the people who came from Harry Potter or other movies, they came here to listen to this song. They came because they liked it, probably like you do. Be happy that Cinematic Orchestra is getting attention, attention that is rightly deserves.
@Freedom21stCenturi How can you call them a shitty group, real scene? nothing on the "real scene" can come close to the league this group have established, i only heard this song from an advert i saw half an hour ago, and after hearing other songs from them i can safely say, nothing you listen to would lyrically, medolically come close to one song off these, and nothing i listen to, until now.
Patrick's heart and this amazing song just keep giving: See "How To Build A Home" tell the story of child slaves rescued from the brothels of Calcutta (Kolkata) here on You Tube under To Build A Home by Made By Survivors. Godspeed Patrick. You're spreading literal Freedom.
