[Lucksta2502]

I miss ya Steo your forever in our hearts and also mine love you forever gone but not forgotten mate i hope when i come up there mate i see ya love ya always R.I.P :(

[artyamy]

its been over 2 years but i still cry for stephen. he was such a massive part of my childhood, and i will always love him and miss him. huge loss to the world, there is a massive void in my life since stephen died, and although i never met him he meant everything to me and i'll never get over the fact that part of my childhood has been taken, a wonderful husband has been taken away from andrew, a son from his parents, a brother from his siblings and the lads in bz, my heart goes out to them all

[dddddd2005]

sooooo sad!!!! couldn't believe it. i know you don't want to leave us so soon. poor andrew; he is so young to lose. hopefully he is fine; stand strong and brave; and he is. thank you andrew and ronan; you all the best. love u all. r.i.p. stephen patrick david gately. miss u always steo. god bless andrew and ronan.

[jason31ful]

the best band i loved right from childhood im 33

[Exxcessivve]

What's all this about "god".

It is highly unlikely for a "god" to exist..

[vinnyvinny2008]

Anyone who wrote a negative comment, REMEMBER ONE THING......GOD DON'T

SLEEP AND..HE DON'T LIKE UGLY....and YOU are more than UGLY...You wish someone cared enough about you to keep all this love going...RIP Stephen

we all love you...God needed you too.

Deep sorrow to Stephen Gately from me on behalf of fans of Boyzone in Mongolia.

[Manolonda]

michael jackson? stephen? why they were all gone? :(

[superflynn290483]

yes a very nice person i met him for a small time before this as i woz working on a screen play i woz very glad for his random input and in looking back i couldnt have got over that writers block with out him what a down to earth guy he woz. i only met him once(dublin airport) but i am so happy for it, so strange how some one can just pop in to ones life for so short of time but leave such an impact i never really knew you but for the time we had i thank you.

[JW35946]

when i saw this video, my tears came out automatically without even crying. :'(

[longdongdude]

Is that the guy who sucked cocks???

[jimmyharris43]

@longdongdude looks like you and him knew one another. But he is the one with all the class. You don't know how long you have on this earth so son, you better do some soul searching and start today.

[longdongdude]

@jimmyharris43 I'm not the one into faggot worship here. Seems to me your the one who needs to do some soul searching. Sounds like there's a cock in there somewhere.

[Veruka311096]

@longdongdude Have you any respect at all? We're talking about the death of a human being here, whether he was white or black, English or American, straight or gay, it's a loss to the world. God taught us to love everyone, and God loved Stephen so much that he took him with him. Don't judge him because he's gay, because after all, it's something he couldn't help. And he never harmed anyone, so have some respect and if you were not a fan of Stephen's, just don't comment.

[07footballcrazy07]

@longdongdude makes me wonder why someone like stephen is taken from the world but people like you are still allowed to live on......

[longdongdude]

@07footballcrazy07 Probably cause I don't stick cocks in my ass or mouth. And I wouldn't worry about Stephen. He's probably in hell where he should be with John Holmes's cock in his ass singing "Don't cha wish your girlfriend was hot like me"

[TheIpatnano]

@longdongdude cant you at least respect a dead guy? if you hate him so much then just dont go this page. and what is so wrong about being gay? that is who he is. is it wrong? i tell you that you bashing a dead guy who is greatly loved is definitely wrong. but stephen being gay? he didnt hurt anyone did he?

[MrShinsengumi09]

@longdongdude no, that would be you

[sweetanila26]

so sad :( there will be no other like him....

[Bexickles19]

grow up u fuckwit have some respect for the dead

[95musicrocker]

how did stephen die?we miss him alot....we <3 u stephen...

[MsMoviestar1]

STEPHEN WILL ALWAYS BE AROUND US

 loss is our legacy insight is our gift memory is our guide

[alan1duggan]

i can't believe its a year 2day he died, it's like he died only a few months ago.

it's absolutely devastating

[gizmocov]

still now that brings tears to my eyes cant believe its nearly a year since steo left us r.i.p bro

[Mrs123babee]

[MJwifeyLuv]

[LilAngelStar87]

[MummyManfa]

@UrharRar cos ur so solid arent u !!! oh ym days u seriously do need to grow up and when sumone close to u dies i hope u get no fuckin sympathy at all u worthless piece of shit. grow up or get off you tube making stupid comments like that.

[niamhstonexox]

[eddieyou1018]

RIP STEVE

[MrRachellou]

:'( nicolaMG i totally agree with everything you have said x

[stargate1250]

R.I.P. stephen , tu nous manquera énormement ... ton talent , ta voix ...

[laura95731]

sadnessfullofjoy they knew him since they where 16 of course it was from the bottom of their hearts... and steo died because of fluid on the lungs which he had and didnt know about... which is really sad cause if they knew he had it he might not be dead 2 day and every1 would have the person they loved back where he belongs

[laura95731]

liam 12031993 thats very disrespectful what you said about him drinkin for 8 hours, u prob dont know anything about boyzone or stephen gately, and every1 knows thats not true cause steo wasnt like that he was a caring loving person who loved 2 perform on stage, and he said before in an interview that he wasnt a big drinker... so if your not goin 2 say anything nice or something respectful about steo or boyzone then dont leave comments likee that... you dont deserve anything in life...!!!!!

[laura95731]

newall7 how is ronan a phoney, he knew stephen since he was 16 years old and they have been good palls ever since so leave him alone... :@ how would you like it if your best mate died and some1 called you a phoney cause you where upset about loosing ur good mate... so fuckin grow up..!!!!!

[laura95731]

@UrharRar was i even talkin to you asshole... and there not assholes... they havent even done anything 2 you so why are you sayin they cant sing and all... get a life and if you dont like them why are you on this video leavin comments... fucking grow up

[MummyManfa]

@UrharRar you say learn to spell yet how do you spell false in your dictionary then oh yeah its fasle. what a clown go back to school and learn your spellings before you try and correct someone else when clearly you are showing everyone what a complete wanker your being.

[loulou6648]

i still cry 2 this day 2 miss & love u so much steo cant believe its happened i sometimes think im dreamimg R.I.P steo xxxx

[sadnessfullofjoy]

i don't think its really from there own words or from the bottom of there hearts. If they are then why would they have a script and read it off of it, instead of just say what ever there is in your heart. But he just read it off, and that script might not even be what they wrote could be some manager of there's wrote for them/him. So i dun think they are what they seem to be. What happened to Stephen anyways?? how did he die??

[bushisbusy]

R.I.P Stephen

[ashfordcg]

stephne gately will always be missed he was a great firend to ronon micky shane and keath he was also aloving brother and a good great life parter

[ducksareus1]

i bet when they turned around they broke down in tears... i started crying as soon as this vid started :( RIP xx

[cocciAnna13]

so sad =(

[MissTakeThatter]

:'( awhhh, this is sooooooooo sad, he sounds like he's gonna cry :(. r.i.p stephen xx

[ravesjoekie]

i still can not believe he is gone

i thought i was getting better with it but i didn't god why

[NicolaMG]

still to this day i cry about stephen, taken when he was at his most happiest in his life, god needed him,,, and as shane said in sky news interview,, we may not know why at this time,, thru confusion and anger,,, but all will come clear in the future,, there is a bigger picture (as quoted by shane)... stephen is not gone,,, his spirit is still with the boyz, he is looking down on them, guiding them, and god really gained an angel with stephen,,,, it will take years for ppl to get used to this

[jkrowing1234]

have some respect you dick

[jkrowing1234]

a man died at 33 years old a man that ment a lot to his fellow band members and his family all you can do it call him a dick and stuff? dude grow up?

[NicolaMG]

@jkrowing1234 exactly i agree with you. i saw stephen 2 weeks before he died and to say he was at his fittest is an understatement... he was looking so well and the boyz and his family have lost a special guy. stephen was a star, a great performer and guy. i have met the guys on several occasions the latest being shane on dec 30th and they still have their old values, and still visit their families and are down to earth. to lose stephen was such a blow to the BOYZ. they are all still upset x

[walesbill]

@NicolaMG : still a big shock with his away. I watch his concert in youtube a week before he go...

[NicolaMG]

@walesbill yes i was at his last concert in uk (shepton mallet 26th sept) its here on youtube.. i was at this gig,, and he died 2 weeks later to the day.... his voice on the queen medley at this gig is astounding,, his voice was amazing and had much improved since the 90s... such a talent, such a voice... and such a loss..... RIP

[realpipol]

stephen,..is such a nice,.sincere person,..we love him so much,,.i know,..that god,always take those pipol who r rea;;y extar ordinary being human...god,..wants these pipol to take as early ,coz the world is so crazy...all of us has purpose in life,.so b gud guys..

[lasktguy]

Musicman55ism, the world would be a better place if Steven lived and you were dead. People like you are neither needed or wanted in this world. I'm sure you're an embaressment to your parents. I feel sorry for you.

[ericfgordon]

I find you a disgusting excuse for a human being, may you forever be cursed for your lack of humanity and disrespect for it. You are lower than the lowest vermin, and I hope life treats you accordingly.

[ljkcri]

Have you no shame,I hope when a familymember of yours dies people show much more respect than you just did.

Whatever he was or wasn't you should respect the dead

[Musicman55ism]

why?

[ljkcri]

That's a simple courtisy from one human to another.If I was his family I would seek you out and puch you in the face

[Musicman55ism]

2 answers to that one. 1,naaaaaa never gonna happen n 2,learn to spell

[newall7]

shut your mouth u idiot

[ljkcri]

I won't dignyfy this but I think you have much to learn that's all

[newall7]

sorry u said puch u in the face i take back what i said

[ljkcri]

was directed at Musicman55ism

[lurlingsukkeltje]

good reaction ..

people like musicman are sad people who never get much attention en looking to get attention this way ..

[niamhstonexox]

@Musicman55ism ! dont be so disrespecteful ! thats horrible ! whichever way he has died he will be missed forever and always , if he was a nobody or not !

[Mags19801]

stephen was a good guy he did nothing wrong will always rem him he was the cutie in boyzone go stephen gatley we love ya

[theoneali]

this vid wasted 1 minute of my life, DAMN!!

[Iamnotanumbernr1]

watch?v=He5f-Gnuo2o These kids cannot even be in Dublin right now.

[zefronboyzonelover1]

everyone smokes pot and drinks (i can't say i have because i haven't) but i know many people who do! And trust me pulmonary oedema does not happen cos of this! Even the tabloids are full of shit if they think he died cos of this or it contributed to his death... I love you Stephen forever! You were my first celebrity crush and that is never ever going to change! I'm 18 and you've been around since I was three! I started liking u since i was about 6!! I love you a lot my baby! Rest in Peace Steo!

[paperflower80]

does any one actually know how he really died?

[619mnps]

He died of natural causes, an "acute accumulation of fluid on the lungs", NOT vomit. It is believed that the fluid on the lungs was caused by an underlying heart-insufficiency, which apparently runs in the family. Drink or drugs did not play a part in this, although the tabloids and haters desperately want to believe this. Yes, he did drink alcohol; yes, he did smoke a joint that night, but it seems that did not contribute to his death.

[misskennedy06]

a heart condison that he had since birth and fulid on lungs

[ohyeaflatou07x]

dat was a harsh comment ya bolox

[matrags]

Seems like Ronan and Stephen were really close. Shame for them to lose a friend. However if it stops Boyzone from reforming and making anymore terrible music for little girls and gay men to listen to then he didn't die in vain :)

[c64c64c64]

honest speech very rare in a celebrity....unless they're irish ;)

[angelash7]

I never really paid any attention to boyzone.

I only knew one of them and that was the blond 1 that was talkin in this video!

I saw them last year when they sang on the X factor with Eoghan Quigg!!!!!

And i remeber watching stephen in that!

And i know that there manager is Louis Walsh.

I feel sorry for his band members and famely and fans even though i am not a fan of him.

R.I.P stephen

[LUVDAEIGHTIES]

Rest in Peace Stephen....

The Americans are a pack of hypocrits...they made such an enormous fuss when Michael Jackson died....then they get on youtube and anything that is'nt American they rubbish....they only promote US bands.....biased & bigoted

[lisaadamson1123]

LUVDAEIGHTIES I"m a Anerican but I"m also Irish and I love Boyzone from 1993 I loved Stephen as if he was my own brother even if I had not ever met him.I cryed so hard on Oct 10th and days after.Steo has taught me so much about being yourself and beleiving in me.Not all American are all that for Michael Jackson.Yes his music will live on and so will r steo's R.I.P STEPHEN

[acledmaiden]

Its sad for the band and his family, however what makes him so special? He "made" mediocore, middle of the road music listened to by mediocore people. Why is it that thousands die in the world each day, then he gets so much air time? when people does something amazing and isnt covered. Thats our world today, we highlight the average and inflate them to be amazing, but when someone truly does something incredible its overlooked for the cheap non lasting thrill of pop culture.

[WOCMMA]

Gayzone ... i feel so sad for them ...

[GummyBear140492]

PRICK

[hilarioph]

So sad

[Galaxy825]

BoyZone will never be the same, RIP!!!

[arquioh]

RIP stephen

[mtvful]

god bless all makes you rethink whatever the story - never was a boyband fan but love U2 - U2 and the video with boyzone will be fond for me - the sweetest thing - a stand up guy, human - ill raise a guiness to you all - by the way god is no bastard its just the way it is. sad

[blueebsb]

Thats hearbreaking.RIP Stephen.

[Kathold86]

The Boyz' speeches at Stephens funeral were heartbreaking.

Especially Ronans :(

It brought tears to my eyes.

[JoeEkDukor]

Yeah god can be the biggest basterd sometime, He took everything that I ever loved, my dad,mum friends boyfriend, hope, money, dreams everything fucking thing what was mine he wanted:(

[rosemary1876]

Boyzone were also stephens family and they were there hours after stephen died and had very seldom left his side they are not being mentioned cos they were boyzone they were mentioned cos they were also his family regardless its very sad

[nev62]

God can be a bastard at times he took my son he wa

s only 28when he died with 3 young children to care for

[Andyrfc86]

I cant believe that any "god" would take away any1 so young and talented

I hope Steven can rest in peace

1976-2009 RIP

[booboobrinn]

I've just heard the words Ronan said at stephens funeral..What kind words he said & how funny he was!!! It was very upsetting & you can hear how upset he was! R.I.P Stephen you was one hottie x <3 x

[XbiddylisciousX]

omg i was bawlin my eyes out wen i heard his speech twas so sad wen he nearly started cryin

[Imthemaster22]

This whole media is a yawn now. He died and so as thousands of ppl in the world. Im not wasting any emotions. Stephen who?

[SlainteMs2]

No one asked you to waste any emotions nor make any irrelevant comments, so if you can't say anything good in his memory, say nothing at all.

Rest in Peace Steo ..xo

Laura.. Ireland

[knocking11]

What about his family they got very little mention. Boyzone are his work mates not his family. Let pay our respects to his family first.

[1stuboy]

godtomanonly ur a fuckin waste of space mate u know nothing of loss, and hadif786 wot has bein gay got to do with anything ur gonna go thru this little ilfe of urs and nobody is gonna care for u that must make u feel pretty shit, small minded little prick grow up mate nobody gives a shit wot either of u hav to say

[conda2008]

[Godtomanonly]

I converse with my son in it but not part of it only and no other living or dead second time around for what is to be completed and done regarding my sphere all up and out of it the resurrection of the dead this is a task to completion.

Father they are all not bothered and couldn't give a fuck and have said to me they don't want live forever.

My son expect nothing they are all dead I do not decide when they die it's the nature of what they fell to that takes them anything we do get is a bonus.

[Carly2kaii7]

R.I.P Stephen

You Shall Be Miseed

[9088Nadia]

R.I.P Stephen Gately!! He was so young..Ronan did himself and boyzone and the whole of Ireland Proud with his song and speech!! I cried so much..i will miss him..my heart goes out to his family and boyzone..boyzone looked so broken at the funeral...boyzone will never be the same again...i will miss him so much...xx

[9088Nadia]

Why the fuck would u write that for! What is your problem!!! have some respect asshole!! why you watchin these videos then you asshole...!!! people like you dont have hearts..boyzone has lost one of their friend..what if that was you..dead and someone say who the fuck cares.. you wouldnt like that so please fuckin have respect!!!

[tweet01uk]

i'd say your the gay coward who is in the closet for posting something like that in the first place

[1stuboy]

fuck u!! fuckin knobhead!! go watch ur little movies on youtube atleast leave these ones alone, fuckin full of hate u fuckin twat!!

[Pokerek1966]

DITTO !

[gizmocov]

people shouldnt bad mouth stephen he might of been a pop star but end of the day behind it all hes like any of us a normal human being some ones son, husband stephen was just a unlucky guy many people die of naturial causes and people have to accept that rip stevo

[Marreez]

they have new footage of him in his last hours...he took 1-2 drinks, he wasn't drunk. and he was in the pub for 36 minutes before he left with his husband and two friends.

the bartender said he was happy and relaxed...not trashed, not drunk. he died from natural causes...fluid in his lungs.

[RamenCupSB]

He may just be one guy that died, but that doesn't give peope the right to disrespect him , I meen how would you feel if someone important died and people started badmouthing them?

[ecoDebs]

so so sad, RIP Stephen.

[MrBuckley123]

rip a sad loss

[kinkijones]

how do you know that it was through drink?, i totally agree with you about the soldiers they deserve credit for doing what they do but don't dis something you dont know about x

[kinkijones]

don't thumbs down me, i was replying to something someone said, she was dissing stephen for the publisity and saying it was through drink he died and going on about soldiers x

[DaniSpiceBoy]

This is such an unnecessary and disrespetcful comment. Grow up and show some respect.

[dhlfh]

Have a bit of respect....,the man never harmed anyone in his life,yes your brother should be honored aswell as the other soldier's who are giving their lives but don't speak ill of a dead man just because you are annoyed at the media..

[chelseaxx7]

this has nothin to do with afghan ths a total dif situation

[PaparazziMediaa]

i feel sorry for him..Battyman will taste fire now

[Alsoirish]

Absolutely, the world has lost a very, very special person. The loss of Stephen is huge, not only in the music world, but to the world all over. The world needed people like Stephen, but God must have needed him even more.

[SistaSeduction]

You sad, little person. Searching videos like this just to make stupid little comments that aren't in the slightest bit funny. Grow up you sad bastard.

[Squab1972]

R.I.P

[Stewartp]

Of course he wasn't evil - but the religious fucktards see him that way. I was being sarcastic.

[Stewartp]

Good choice God - Stephen was so evil he had to be taken out.

[patmold]

Yeaaaah cuz gos really spends his spare time reading youtube comments....

[kylecarabini]

you find it obscene but why complain. You know this always happens when someone famous dies. I Think you should sort your head out mate, someone has still lost a family member, a mate and to many of us, an inspiration. Take ur shallow minded head off to a shrink to get it sorted out!

[kedwilkins]

i find the whole thing obscene; this guy seemed to have hours of coverage on the news - church songs and the cliche footprints in the sand - it was like all my sundays come at once (i hate sundays). over dramatised over sold as a funeral the royals would be proud of. fairwell to the backing singer who could not sing. there are solders dying in iraq for fucks sake this is more significant. WTF

[WDDaphne]

Andrew, Ronan, Mickie, Shane and Keith and the Gately family... you have lost a wonderful, true and sincerely loved member of your family and you have my most sincere sympathies. The world has lost a great artist but heaven has gained a bright and brilliant angel.  May God comfort you all in your loss. Sleep peacefully Stephen. God Bless you all.

[HaydenMummy]

I coming on here at 26 years of age, and saying Goodbye to our sweetheart Stephen, my childhood idol, beautiful idol, my beautiful honest person, true to himself and his husband, my lifelong fan and sinning star, Linda Davies and family, you gave me hope when their was no hope!

Love Al aways The Davies family

[Shylett]

R.I.P.Stephen. Gone but never forgotten.

[johngee2911]

To-day I watched the funeral of Stephen Gately,I cried tears for the loss of a warm,beautifull man,Ronan and the lads did him proud,he will never be forgotten.RIP Stephen....John N.Wales.

[XxDizzyRhizxX]

RIP Stephen...my thoughts are with the boys, your husband and family....god bless may u rest safely in god's care.

[charhar58]

RIP Stephen will be sadly missed forever in our hearts xx

[magbut]

Much of Dublin is expected to join in the emotional farewell for a favourite son at his funeral on Saturday which will be a very musical affair as the family believe it's what he would have wanted.

Rest in Peace Stephen - You will be sadly missed.

[poodlepal]
