The Fray - How To Save A Life

[taig72]

I found out that my mum had cancer and therefore decided i would look after her in her dying days this song came out the night she died this reminds me of the last few days i had with her thank you the fray for bringing out a song i can relate to and remember her for being the best mum there could have been

[mikatalia101]

at my old school, i tried to kill myself and cutting myself because i was bullied, i felt like i didn't matter to anyone, intill i started listening to songs like this, it made me feel good about myself :)

[PocketMonstersoul]

This song reminds me of someone I know. Someone tried to save him but they couldn't. They tried their best. This song reminds me of him. I didn't know him well but others I knew sure did. We all miss him deeply and thank the one who tried to save him. We all miss you ______. The Fray reminds me of that situation. I just want to thank The Fray for being here for us.

[27Delancey27]

In April it will be the 2 year anniversary of My step-moms death she killed herself. Today I was told a very close friend who is addicted to cocaine is going to die if she doesn't stop using. This song always helps me cope with what has and is happening. I've stayed up with Nicole all night just trying to save her life.

Nicole if you see this Please stop using so many people love you and are trying to help you! you just have to help yourself..

[smoothyarra1]

[lestoro1]

questa canzone mi fa ricordare il grandissimo GERMANO MOSCONI

1932-2012 Germano R.I.P

[MrGleek001]

Actually, this song was supposed to be inspired when the frays (their a cristian rock group) were at a mental instutusion doing some charity work, and one of the people they were helping had voices in their heads telling them to killed themself, after about a week there she listened to the voices

[KowboyHazelJ98]

This is the best song I know. My dad passed away from cancer a year ago, and my best friend's mom passed away in a car crash around the same time. I am in love with my best friend, and we're there for each other and we talk late at night about our memories with our lost one's and he doesn't know I love him but we love each other like brother and sister and that's enough for me, but every time this song comes on the radio, I call him and tell him to turn on the radio and we just talk, cry, listen

[cheyspawn99]

this song reminds me of my boyfriend he got me to stop cutting myself i love u max

[AndyHurleysChicklet7]

I don't understand how beautiful music like this has taken a backseat in today's world. Yes, this song was all over the radio back when it came out, but I wish I would continue to hear this type of music on the radio still. This has meaningful lyrics, the musicians can actually play real instruments, and Isaac has such a raw and real voice. This band is simply incredible. I hate turning on the radio now and hearing "you a stupid hoe, you are stupid stupid hoe" and shit like that.

[Y2JCodes]

Why u came...

[idiotrun1997]

What's the true meaning of this song? Is it about a girl who is having relationship problems?

[kingevil500]

@idiotrun1997 its about how the lead singer went to a camp for troubled teens and he tried to help this one kid but he couldint , and hes saying he wished there was a way to save him ... theres also something else about a car crash , just wikipedia it :D hope it helps

[makingalifeoutof0]

@idiotrun1997 No the music video might be portraying that but its about the author losing someone dear to him and he saying that if he had done something different they might still be there.

[asrock8]

472 think that dislike is download button!!!

[seanelo99]

i dont know but i love dis song



[theweedsable]

Fantastic song... what can we say ?

[nerobinson2806]

Rip Frankie.. Miss u so much..1982-2000 everyday.. I THINK OF YOU!

[codyrei]

some sordda window to your the right as she goes left and you stays right

[Y2JCodes]

U BEGIN TO WONDER WHY U CAMEEEE....

[CreativeAlli]

2:21 = One hot guy!!! xD lol

[BakaMatsuri]

@CreativeAlli If that's the only constructive comment you have about this video and song, you either paid no attention, or paid attention and focus too much on men.

[CreativeAlli]

@BakaMatsuri Wow! Fyi i listen to the song all the time, and yes i paid attention thank you very much. I was being a little funny when i said that, no reason to be mean about it. -.- Not good to judge somebody just from one little thing they say. -.-

[EkiM110]

I go here when i have problems :')

[JediRebelKid]

@EkiM110 I go to tittty bars when I have problems.

[terrork08]

I'm an 18 year old hood nigguh and i love this song <3

[JediRebelKid]

@terrork08 18 year old hood nigguhs don't use emoticon hearts.

[RobzFanpire]

My friend keeps talking about commiting suicide I really dont know what to say or do :/ Advice anyone?

[JediRebelKid]

@RobzFanpire Give him a rope and raggedy stool.

[6969bipolarbear]

@JediRebelKid your an asshole!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[JediRebelKid]

@6969bipolarbear Indeed!

[YgZ28]

@RobzFanpire Don't listen to JediRebelKid, note he has KID in his name. If your friend is serious about this then get help. We have enough people doing suicide. Get a counselor or something. ACT!

[JediRebelKid]

@YgZ28 Whats bad about suicide? Someone thinks they are better off dead, who are we to say otherwise? Gods? They wanna die? Fuck em let em die.

[TheMunchkinDude]

@JediRebelKid Dude shut up about death. It's terrible. If a person wants to die at a young age they have so much ahead of them. If they kill themselves they're ruining all of the opportunities they would have had in life.

[JediRebelKid]

@TheMunchkinDude You don't know that for a fact. Would you have stopped Osama Bin Laden or Hitler from committing suicide at the age of 12? BOOM! I just blew your mind! Think about that for a second.

[TheMunchkinDude]

@JediRebelKid first of all you didn't "blow my mind", and the point is everyone has potential in life no matter who they are or where they come from. If you give them the chance to be the best they can be then they won't have to turn into someone like Hitler.

[JediRebelKid]

@TheMunchkinDude I just had a baby with a retarded prostitute. The baby is paralyzed from the neck down, blind and deaf. I did that kid a huge favor when I threw it in the river. It didn't have the potential to be shit. BOOM! blew your mind again cocksucker.

[TheMunchkinDude]

@JediRebelKid okay cool you threw a baby in a river arent't you nice. Yes he/she may have not had the same potential but it still had the will to live. You need to understand everyone deserves a chance in life. I bet you're bull shitting with the baby thing anyway but for even saying that true or not makes you a piece of shit. At least get a doctor to kill it painlessly.

[JediRebelKid]

@TheMunchkinDude That baby was a piece of shit and deserve to be treated as such. How dare you judge me? Its judgmental people like you that make this world is too much for me to take. I'm going to fucking kill myself.

[TheMunchkinDude]

@JediRebelKid Dude you're calling me out for judging you whenyou called me a cocksucker..... dumbass. I have said litterally that one thing and you flip out... you really are a psycho

[JediRebelKid]

@TheMunchkinDude

Dumbass? Psycho? How dare you, sir?

*puts head in noose*

[TheMunchkinDude]

@JediRebelKid When will you shut up?

[JediRebelKid]

@TheMunchkinDude Where do you get off?

*removes one foot from the raggedy stool*

[TheMunchkinDude]

@JediRebelKid dude do it if you have nothing better to do thatn upload vids of tits....

[JediRebelKid]

@TheMunchkinDude HA!!! You just told me to commit suicide. I smell a hypocrite.

[TheMunchkinDude]

@JediRebelKid and i thought you had your head in a noose and one foot off a stool? I wonder how gard it is to write comments? imma stop feeding the troll now. Dont reply, but do take serious thought about suicide. It's a serious matter. :P

[JediRebelKid]

@TheMunchkinDude I think the concept of suicide should commit suicide. That's some profound shit.

[TheMunchkinDude]

@JediRebelKid But if the idea of suicide committed suicide, it would promote suicide by using it as a problem solver! How do we beat suicide!

[JediRebelKid]

@TheMunchkinDude Touche, good sir. Perhaps send the abstract entity of suicide to suicide prevention? No wait, then he'll know that everyone wants to prevent him, which makes him feel worthless, then he'll commit suicide subsequently reinforcing suicide as a problem solver. I believe we have a conundrum on our hands.

[TheMunchkinDude]

@JediRebelKid indeed

[JediRebelKid]

@TheMunchkinDude And FUCK YOU!!! TITS ARE AWESOME!!!

*wipes tears from eyes*

[Regdarx11]

This song is as fun to sing as it is to listen to.

In fact, The Fray is just cool to sing to. Turns out my voice is a lot like his.

[KingNoldor]

nice song.

peaceable.



[afterlifebeauty]

472 people don't know what the fuq they're takin about >:( hearless people hating on a song that helps someone through a death of a loved one! It hurts knowing there are people that just dont care :(

[xAnthemOfTheAngels]

A few days ago my family and I heard about my Aunt, with Cancer, tried to commit suicide. A couple days after that my Aunt was in a coma. Today, she had died of Cancer. Honestly, this is the only song that's helping me right now. Thanks, The Fray, it means a lot to me. <3

[mandymcal]

@xAnthemOfTheAngels omg i am totally here for you! i feel so bad for you! i was actually listening to this song because my cousin died a few months ago and this song always makes me feel better. though like 1 hr ago... thats horribul.

[xAnthemOfTheAngels]

@mandymcal Thanks, even coming from someone I barely know, it means a whole lot to me. And I'm very, very sorry about your cousin.

[InYorFace]

@xAnthemOfTheAngels That is not the meaning behind the song :/

[robertzio]

@InYorFace the meaning behind the song is to help you get over the death of a lovd one

[asunshine99]

Ya had me at the fist note of that piano <3

[hannahisamagicgoat]

Beauty is not how much make-up you wear or how far your bones stick out, it is who we are and what music we listen to. If you are listening to this, you are the most beautiful girl to grace this earth.

[Corruptoz]

@hannahisamagicgoat im pretty sure alot of ppl listening 2 this arent gurls, at least im not

[asunshine99]

@Corruptoz hmmm is that so??? This girl is!

[Corruptoz]

@asunshine99 well im not a gurl and thats wat matters

[asunshine99]

@Corruptoz okiee dokie have a nice day! (or at least a better day than me! i just found out my crush and quite possibly first love "'likes me but likes my best friend more" :/ )

[xXxEmoZebraxXx]

2:37 Beautiful ass eyes, I love em <3

[hhailey351]

i cried thinking about my grandpa and my best friend... :'( i miss them....alot

[landbabble]

this song put me to tears

[letsgotowar666]

[reptaryay]

9/11 add really??? REALLY!!???

[ReZiReTempzz]

depressing song and comments :/

[lElLlIlAlS]

A few years back. I had a black dog. She was my first dog. I loved her. She was only 9 pounds. Small dog. After 12 years of being by her everyday. She had gotten a tumor.. The tumor weighed 3.5 pounds. She went through many surgeries. They did everything they could.. The tumor had cancer in it. the cancer spread throughout her body. Two weeks later she had to be put down. I remember taking her home in the pink blanket and burrying her. This song was playing on the car ride home.. R.I.P. Lexie<3

[BjornBosman]

Almost 3 years past without my girlfriend who died... I'll never forget her, and this song... it remembers her to me so I listen it every day a couple times and think: "We'll stay together for ever."

All the people who lost someone and listen to this song, if it's a bad time, it will only become better.

[7heaven100]

I can still cry (watching this video)... I am still human...

[66pepa]

Is THE BEST SONG that I have never heard,really :D I love it,its great.

[xXxDoDDeRZxXxz]

this song reminds me so much of my beautiful mother who recently passed away due to cancer, it reminds me of her smile and how she bought joy to me and my family. mom wherever you are right now i love you more than anything <3

[RedAccordMusic]

The Fray is amazing. They have inspired millions with this one song. And i'm so happy that they are a band in MY lifetime so when i'm younger i can tell my kids about a "classic" band :) The Fray has inspired me and my music that I write. If you all can come and please check out my song Nostalgia inspired by this song it'd mean a lot. Especially seeing how hard it is to "get out there". My music all started out from The Fray :)

[theplaya71]

My uncle killed himself over 10 years ago. I didn't know him well but still think of him and how his death effected those around him still living. Just wanted to share.

[LittleJay9]

Why does this masterpiece have only 23 million views?

[08josh020]

@LittleJay9 It doesn't, it has less than 2 million views. And anyway, that's quite a lot compared to other music videos.

[JulOyt]

There comes a time in life when an important person(you've known your whole life) or a stranger(you've briefly met) despises you, deceives you, or harasses you. It's a difficult trial but you must learn how to show COMPASSION nonetheless. That is what this song is about.

I don't regret any moment that I have shown love for my enemies.

[Charcoal1291]

This song just reminds me that we should just appreciate time on the whole....and that really sad Scrubs episode....one of my favourite songs though :)

[MarcoO6661]

a fat nigga ;D

[LiefdeMoi]

Ah Ah Ah Ah Staying Alive- Vinnie Jones Advert. If Only We Could Save....

[ShailiahApAizen]

I heard the song. Thought on it.

I watched the video. Almost cried.

[JediRebelKid]

Life has its ups and downs but whenever life gets too hard it helps to remember that suicide will immediately put an end to every single one of your problems.

[banditoxviii]

@JediRebelKid so...its good to sucide..when things are hard? =.

[JediRebelKid]

@banditoxviii Absolutely. I keep a cache of guns each loaded with a single bullet. Just in case life gets too hard for someone I love.

[brittnaydawn123]

i love this, if only more of us knew how to save a life <3

[foxfire232]

this song reminds me of how many i lost :'( i miss them all R.I.P. all of them

[Blane471]

#99 is hardest for me. My favorite teacher died a few months ago and every time I listen to this song I cry in his name. R.I.P Mr. Burton :"(

[stephxpappas15]

Listening to this & Rainy Mood? = <3

[HippoPixel]

If you ever cried after listening this song. <3

[Mylifeofdragons]

@justagirl12341 At least after they commit suicide, their IQ is still higher than yours...

@Shifty2ky

unlucky same but best friend :(



[jadenlikewow]

its not just about suicide but it also about it he wrote this song after working with mentally ill children with issues such as depression and other conditions and i ts about people trying to help them but each person takes what they need from this song :D

[MakeMeHate1]

the drummer has a mini drum :s

but still he's so good :O amazing :)

[Shifty2ky]

my dog , was just put down today .. already miss him R.I.P Prince <3

[tristano1111]

@Shifty2ky i'm sorry about that... i hope he didn't suffer

[LVPBz]

@Shifty2ky i'm sorry about it...

[estrellas0204]

@Shifty2ky sorry :( RIP

[GoochtheG33k]

@Shifty2ky - I think I may have to do the same to my 6 year old Doberman Pinscher named Lucky. He's lost so much weight this winter. Between that along with hook and roundworms, I think I'll have to. He tries to put on a happy mood but I know he's feels horrible. He's been to the vet but I think the overall effects have taken a toll on him.

[rnr14dors]

@Shifty2ky i'm sooo sorry !!!Although i don't even know you....I just can completely understand you!! :(

[bibinella1994]

@Shifty2ky i know how it feels...

[Supermachin41]

@Shifty2ky RIP Prince. ;'-(

[iloveny76]

Amazing how, after nearly 7 years, I get chills at 3:20. EVERY TIME.

[yashgaur0013]

i sung this song for a woman i loved, but she loved someone else, this song is amazing, and before this, i never believed a song could do that much. :')

[Addacus259]

Damn Chills everytime

[aegu98]

this song has inspired me to start up a after school program basically about how this song and its true meaning and what your life is about and how much more you are able to accomplish

[dario8needshelpio8]

@aegu98 i thought it was about suicide...

[mojmj2]

@dario8needshelpio8 I thought so too, but I think everybody can have his/her own associations

[curtisd1234]

i love that song..and im lost of words..that song and video is touching to everyone who lost a love one..

[headinclouds50]

R.I.P Grandpa, you died when i was 7. i didn't get to meet grandma or my other grand parents, but i still miss you guys. Grandpa, i cried so much at your funeral that my face turned red. I put a rose with tears on it on your coffin. i once cried in your lap when i was a baby and once kissed you head when i was 5 but now.. i wish i could see you, it would make my day. (im crying so much) I <3 YOU SO SO SO SO MUCH!!

[MorganLeanneHogue95]

Today my step dad just walked out on my family and my little sister and I where at school so we wernt there to se it but he was her father. My mom is ill and is heart broken and lost her only friend. He just left and apparently does not care that he had a little girl here. I honeslty will never forgive him for this but i miss him and i still love him.

[MorganLeanneHogue95]

@MorganLeanneHogue95 Please come home Nathan. we all miss you and dont understand why you left. things where bad here, but its bad everywhere! You gave up on us and showed me the type of "man" you are. so if you truely cared and loved us you will come home and show it.

[270missdiana]

My grandfather passed away recently and I made a tribute to him. He was a famous actor in many movies and I miss him with all my heart. It is called Sam Coppola- The Final Appaluse. Please watch and share with anyone you can.

Thank you

I used to get bullied a lot! To a point I almost killed myself! But now I'm happy I'm still here! I'm going to sing this in front of my school next Friday because this song means a lot to me! If anyone ever needs support, get in contact with me! I am always here for anyone who needs help! God bless <3

[CakeNmonk]

To all the people saying that Forgiveness is everything and the key and you need to forgive the people you love, but what if the person really hurt you badly and the action they did is keeping you in misery? It really makes it hard to just forgive and keep living in misery when they think everything is okay - The Fray rocks and their songs don't misunderstand me xD

[Tricker71]

that girl at 1:04 looks a bit like the girl from awkward

What I REALLY like about this video is that they, instead of rounding up some models, actually chose human beings that I could know and can relate to... Great song....
