    Thank you.

  • 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.

  • There's not a word in the English language, any language in fact that could describe how incredibly beautiful this is.

  • no 87 year old would miss out the apostrophe on i'm.......

  • @mrhewett100 I swear down, you're funny! {:-D

  • Found this song from Criminal Minds and I instantly fell in love with it. :D

  • I have a new goal in life, create something hauntingly beautiful...

  • 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 Christmas they didn't work.

    Bugger.

  • not baaaaaaaaaaaaaaad

  • I CANT SPEAK

  • 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.....

  • This is indescribably good music

  • 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

  • @TheSuperEvilapple you mean this song is Avatar?

  • @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.

  • Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. 

  • FINALLY I FOUND THE SONG FROM THE SCHWEPPES AD

  • I am 114 years old and dead.

  • this song is in the movie Another Earth

  • @4101930

    is because he climbed the tree to see the world

  • open a new tab and type in "Plains Milky Way - Watch in HD"

    mute that video, play this, and profit.

  • @raFuz3 thank you my friend (:

  • 127 people don't realize 16,161 of us will be listening to this in heaven.

  • 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.

  • One of the most beautiful, thought provoking, moving songs I've ever heard. Bravo!

  • you just know when you are listening a song with your heart.........now i have to go to the bathroom and put on my mascara again :´( :D

  • like if bill bell brought you here

  • the tree

  •  like if FlatLineEditing brought you here

  • 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 i'm going to dedicate this song to my grandmother. she died and i miss her.

  • @hithereimnicolas No you aren't you sad, weirdo.

  • @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.

  • Comment removed

  • @hithereimnicolas

    your grandson is a honorable guy

  • @hithereimnicolas Ernesto rocks!

    

  • @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 - That is simply beatiful.

  • @hithereimnicolas Honestly? That is one of the most beautiful things I ever heard.

  • Comment removed

  • @hithereimnicolas 87, and you're on youtube?

  • damn. with a capital DAMN.

  • @SuperDabombz - Y'know, you could've just written "DAMN" in the first place, lol. ;D

  • Comment removed

  • 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!

  • @LordDarkPhantom He said a Harry Potter VIDEO, haha not film :P

  • @LightManMark - Yeah that thought occurred to me as I entered the comment in. Though there was no harm in asking anyway.

  • @LordDarkPhantom search for; where i feel at home harry potter & click on the first one. that is the video i'm talking about :)

  • Im going to hold on tighter next time I have to hold on.

  • Sounds like James Franco when he says "Thankyou" at the end. Amazing song though!

  • This song is just so beautiful :')

  • I want to cry as a child!!!!!!!

  • Looks like beardyman.

    Sings like an Angel.

  • One of the best songs ever done, shame about the rest of the album though

  • check my video of this!

  • Searched for this song FOREVER and I am so so happy I finally found it!

  • look up Jen Millers cover to this. its AMAZING!

  • and btw....this guy and adam duritz on a song would be fucking PHE....NOM....I....NAL

  • reminds me of fred and wesley. angel tv show was excellent

  • @CheaIncx omg me too

  • Who else saw this song on Criminal Minds episode "Children of the Dark"?

  • @TheMessiersAndromeda I already heard it before that and I was just like EFF YEAH PATRICK WATSON!

  • i want this to be played at my funeral fucking love it or my wedding

  • search to build a home - sports montage

  • This man is a fucking genius! You wanna be IT? Hell yeah, I wanna live in it! It's like, God's vagina!

  • At first i thought this was coldplay

  • @SaxPlayers13 I'm taking serious offence at what you just said. Don't insult Patrick Watson.

  • @punchfloor i think it's more of a compliment :P

  • 0:00<---------------------- FREE REPLAY BUTTON

  • why do i cry every time i listen to this song?

  • @MegaDJyellow cuz ur a pussy...

  • It just hurts so much.

  • One of the best live performances... Patrick puts So much passion and emotion in this.... So swell

  • Just... Close you eyes...

  • someone has the piano score of this song

  • 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.

  • @MagicandHeart no they are a shitty group and are jokes on the real scene

  • @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.

  • i came here because of ANOTHER EARTH trailer and fell in love with this song :)

  • @StuNneD187 same here:)

  • 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.

  • it reminds me of coldplay.

  • ur amazing please sing more not just this one u have a graet voice

  • I would dearly love to be that microphone :3
