  • this song makes me cry... reminds me of a hard time in my life. i watched that movie "joshua" and looked for that song on the internet... that movie is a masterpiece but so sad and disturbing.

  • the "they should've saved themselves" comment is profoundly disturbing. 

  • Just finished watching Joshua and still creeped out! what a chilling film... :x

  • Not enough people know about this song, which is kind of sad-- like the song itself.

    Man, I can't get enough of this song :)

  • The movie "Joshua" could've easily been a prequel to "American Psycho". The character of Joshua was practically Patrick Bateman at age 10.

  • Damn it! Why isn't this on iTunes. Well, I know it's because it's unreleased. But still. I want it.

  • This song is chokingly brillant.

  • Thanks for sharing!!! :D

  • This is such a beautiful song. I always think of my mom in the line 'You always said I never missed a note.'

    I love my mom so much and this song always makes me think of how great she is to me.

    <3 love you ma.

  • i first heard this song few months back while watching the film joshua and fell in love with it straight away,sounds better every time i listen to it.

  • Sociopathy isn't  clean or pretty but here is the deal... they should have saved themselves.

  • can anyone send a link from u can actually mp3 download song

  • The kid needed more attention and love, as well as nurturing in playing the piano which his uncle Ned did, thats why he decided to get rid of his parents, but the way he drove them crazy, that was really sad.

  • @LennonMcCartneyluv Yes and his parents gave him very little attention, only his uncle did, as shown by the videotapes

  • thanks for the link :D

  • thank you so much

    

  • hahahahh Jochitko lol

  • To me it's like that fable of the scorpion hitching a ride on the frog's back and then stinging the frog to death. It's his nature. In this case Joshua is the scorpion.

  • This song makes me wonder how many more years I have to be alive. Maybe I shouldn't be listening to this. I don't know.

  • why is the song called the fly?

  • because the main part "when I pull the wings off of The Fly, The Fly never wonders why i did it" inspired the title of the song i guess. it's using "the fly" to represent something

  • omg i cant find it on lime wire.......

  • I finished watching Joshua about 10 minutes ago and I'm still stunned. The unjust... and then, they nailed the ending with this song. My god, that movie has an impact...

  • I've watched the movie, too. It was realy good. And this song .. amazing!

    Do you think, the uncle is joshua's father?

    Sry for my "english" ;)

  • @Kirschmaoam no because his uncle is his mum's brother, they wouldn't of slept together? i felt so sorry for the father in that film. was slightly twisted.

  • @Kirschmaoam no that was the moms brother. he wanted to be with the uncle i think because he wanted more attention that his parents didnt give him

  • My favorite Dave Matthews song.

  • damn nice song

  • song is on limewire

  • good song

  • they should put it on itunes, i couldnt find it!

  • this song is absolutely amazing<3

  • Speechless! Dont listen to this if your having a bad day, youll ball your eyes out. lol

  • wow, this song is amazing- i like it so much that i decided to sing it for my talent show, it will be recorded, so get ready to watch awesomeness!

  • this might sound sort of weird, but I liked it more when Joshua sang it. I mean, Matthews has an amazing voice but joshua's was so light and idk...there was just something about it... It was sort of creepy though.

  • i agree

  • agreed. I think it's because Dave's version had a sentimental feel to it while Jacob's (Josh) version was very angelic sounding yet somehow creepy at the sometime

  • shoot, i loved.

  • Thanks for posting the song! Found it online for download finally. Took forever but I found it!

  • Could you tell me where you found the song?

  • I didn't know till now he had written the song especially for the movie. Which means he was eligible for an Oscar nod for Best Original Song - but he wasn't even nominated! Terrific song, disturbing movie.

  • beautiful song!!!!!

  • incredible song

  • incredible

  • why is the audio for this song, on every different one i go to complete shit. jesus

  • Because the song was never released on any album or such and I recorded it with a stereo cable dicertly from my dvd-player. Yet, why complain? Download the song for good quality (this is youtube after all) or buy the movie and record the song yourself.

  • Thanx 4 posting the song....

  • @Shadow5712 you have to download the movie soundtrack! I've done in these way

  • Wow...thanks for posting this. I love this song and couldn't find it anywhere!!!

  • is this by dave matthews or dave matthews band?

  • Just him

  • thanks so much for the download link, man :) Its harder than a pedophile's cock at recess to find the frigging thing!

  • So glad this went above the standard and trite "young serial killer" mold; instead we got a truly classy, suspenseful horror movie. Great, great film.

    When Joshua began singing at the end, and basically began explaining his motive, I actually got a small chill.

  • gr8

  • Joshua is one of those movies you cant forget. Hard to explain, but even for how depressing the movie really was, its almost perfectly done where it makes it a great movie. Really well done.

  • nice....

  • I love this, I have been trying to find this song, just watched this movie on HBO last night..thank you!

  • is there an other name to this song? I can't find it on limewire =/

  • when he sings this song at the end it is very creepy, look for him in those dark cold corners of your house.

  • I had to buy this movie after watching it and i let my friends see it and they love it too. Jacob (joshua) is anawesome actor period! Check him out on the new star trek at the beginning of the movie playing a young spock. Awesome!

  • Comment removed

  • I am trying to find the one that Joshua sung!!..He was awesome!!...i watch Joshua yesterday on HBO and it was awesome!!

  • i've never seen a movie more disturbing than this one. it doesn't hit close to home it actually hits it. on so many levels.

  • I too watched the movie recently. Very very good movie where no computer graphics were needed, just great acting and a great script. Jacob (the actor who played Joshua) was fantastic--I agree with Zmman1985, please watch the movie--right now it's on On Demand for Cinemax via Time Warner Cable. And this song is sooo lovely; especially when "Joshua" sings it.

  • Yeah, I just finished watching the movie. Kid is hauntingly beautiful when singing his version. Still Dave rocks it. Truely disturbing movie.  Totally awesome in it's very "leave you questioning" ending.

  • what kind of questions does the end leave you asking?

  • POST THE FInal scence

  • Yes the Final Scene of the movie is awsome, the way the little kid sings it is pretty cool.

  • I seriously love this song. The lyrics are incredible. The other day I just was flipping threw the channels and seen Joshua on and I seen the ending where he is singing and playing the song. Thats how I discovered it.

  • oh my gosh same here!!!! i always flip through the channels to see if its on!!! but its never on :(

  • Thak you for the link , i like song

  • i like how joshua sings the song

  • truly, i must say, the story of Joshua is really distrubing...it got me thinking for at least 3 days the question "WHY????!!!"

  • Because he loved his Uncle more than his parents. Thats why he came up with the plan to make them seem psychotic. I mean why do you think he smiled when his dad was beating him in public? Because he knew there was no one left to take care of him, besides his uncle. Everything he did was just to make them seem insane and abusive. Smart kid right? Its fantasticaly brilliant and insane at the same time.

  • thans to fill me up...but what I meant was "can a young boy really pull such actions like making your little sister cry, pushing your gradma/nanny to die and making your parents psychotic..."

    the funny thing was, his parents never noticed that he was quite jealous for the attention they giving with his little sister....

    with a kid like, I will really feel afraid everytime his beside me....

    hehehehhahahhahehhehhaehaehaeh­ahehah

  • 1st thing don't use the word psychotic it is misused greatly in that context. He only made them look abusive and crazy. Also he was supposedly very intelligent but it didn't really show until the song which kind of gave me the feeling the whole series of events were planed meticulously by Joshua. They just didn't have that appearance until the song in the end.

  • thanks (^_^)b

  • @goofyjr I still don't understand it. (Sorry for bad English ;d)

    He had sort off a bruise or something.

    Did his father did that?

    I mean that scene where he's crying under the piano?

    I thought it was a fantastic movie, but I wont understand all of it

  • @STRONTDERDESTRONT

    the boy did it all to himself to get away from his parents he wanted to be center attention but the new baby didnt allow that.

  • @STRONTDERDESTRONT the boy done it to himself, because when the dad actually hit him in public the cops looked and found loads of bruises on him, so they thought it was the dad. its not hard just pay attention

  • @goofyjr And his parents hated him aswell, he realised that

  • i have a request!! u should put a video of joshua singing this song!!! its in the movie at the end.. plz do that.. a lot of ppl would like that!! adn me lol :)

  • The movie JOSHUA is a strange but awesome movie, this song was written for that movie, and the little boy in the movie plays the piano at the end of the movie and sings the song to his uncle. If you get a chance please watch the movie. You wont regret it.

  • High all..it may not interest you at all, but i love Dave Matthews and this was a great song ..I made that video for the game skate 2..i get this depressing and lonely vibe from the song and tried to film the skating like i was alone..i know it's dumb, but i'm old and can't really skate..so i live out my skating dreams on xbox..anyway enjoy it or not..its still a great dave tune!

  • how awesome it is to hear a gem this rare though

    i love that these types of songs are kinda hidden

    from mainstream, isn't that the whole reason "mainstream" was termed, where those who care not r distracted while those who do reap the o so ripe benefits

  • How thoughtful of you to set up and offer a link to share and download the song. Thank you.

  • Why isn't this song mainstream? I can't find it anywhere.

  • Dave wrote this song for the movie, It might get released one day.

  • Thank you so much for posting this...never heard it and now I just keep hitting 'replay'...

  • Thnx that makes alot of sense, thats so sad when a child self inflicts themselves for attention. Well i am a big fan of this song and when Matthew sings this song its like joshua singing the words from his own mouth and i actually cried the first couple of times hearing this song.

  • I LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS SONG! I feel sooo bad for Joshua, this movie made me wanto to jump through the tv and hug him, something his parents should have been doing all alone. Oh but one thing: how the heck did he get the bruises on his back anyway??? Never got that part so can someone clarify plz? thnx

  • I think he did it to himself for attention.. idk?

  • OMG, what is wrong with u? he did it to himself so it looks like his parents did it.

  • He's a little devil in the movie!!

  • i really love this song... its totally different to what i normally listen to (Slipknot, Bring me the horizon) but i love it soooooo much... !

  • This is beautiful!

  • i got the glove its part of one of the deleted sences

  • I watched this video 4 times trying to find a glove. I did not see a glove. Where is the glove? ):

    Lol.

  • the glove is in the deleted scenes his mom find it in the cushion under his bed and she asks him about it he tells her tht he doesnt want to touch somethings when she said what he said i dont want you to touch me ne more mommy its sorta like they took the scene out but forgot to take the scene w the glove out at the end

  • this may be one of the greatest movies. end of story

  • Does anyone kow where I can either view the end clip of Joshua or hear the kid singing this song at the end? I love this song in any version but I have this one and need the other to make the pair.

  • you would have to rent or buy the movie and rip it onto your pc

  • *chills* I love Dave...

  • I just dont understand how this man is such a genius, no one in history writes lyrics like he does YOUR THE GREATEST EVER DAVE!!!!!

  • great song and thanks from download

  • 31thejoker i dont get that either ive been like wondering for days now

  • Great song. Great movie. Song is chilling.

  • why cant you find this song on iTunes!!?!?!? GRRR

  • great song

  • Such a great song for such a trival movie

  • It's so weird ... I like Dave Matthews alright, and have seen him live a couple times. He's not one of my favorite artists, though - yet this song is my all time favorite EVER. I get chills when I hear it, especially when I think of Joshua singing it at the end, and the look on his uncle's face ... brr!!

  • joshua was so freaking evil omg I WANT PRT 2.. OF THE MOVIE I WANNA KNOW WHAT HAPPEND NEXT CAUSE THATS THE SCARYEST THING FOR A BOY TO DO TO HIS PARENTS.

  • thanks man!!!

  • dude, what's up with the white glove thing at the end?

  • Comment removed

  • This song rules by the way.

  • That last note reminds me SO MUCH of a John Frusciante song.

  • I just watched the movie for the first time. Creepy. But when Joshua sings this song I felt a chill. I need to watch this movie over !

  • alright..the movie really gave me the chills for a couple of days.... I guess my reacton to the movie is...WHY DID HIS DAD GAVE HIM THE BOOK "KING OF KINGS"!!! WHY??? WHY???...hehehe.... i think if they let Joshua be born again, he wouldn't be as disturbing as he could be.... Anyways... at the part of the museum scene....does he have a plan to let her sister fall from the stairs and did he really intend to kill her grandma or something....

  • i really like this song...

    ...i wish they would put it on an album...

  • its pretty bad that the best part of the movie was this DMB song at the end.

  • jpa30094,

    That would be pretty bad, if it were true.

  • The shit is fuckin awesome and I want to learn how to play it on guitar, anybody know where I can find this song to download.

  • WagonBurner060606, the download link is in the info section of the video, just click "More Info."

  • Thank you so much for the .mp3! Couldn't find it anywhere! 5*

  • `omg!!!!!!!!!!!! this movie is my fav if it got any better i would go loco it rocks !!! 2 thumbs up

  • cant get this song out my head love it and it was so creepy when the kid was singing it but love that version to.

  • i saw the ending of the movie! it was good but now i need to see the beginning. i love this song

  • can someone please explain the end of this movie? i dont understand the glove under the bed or the bad uncle thing.

  • the glove... he was killing the animals and he used the glove to "re-stuff" them. he also did ALL of that JUST to live with his uncle.

  • I think the glove thing was what joshua used so no one could detect that he was the one who did something to his mothers medication ? Correct me if im wrong.

  • i think so even though i didnt see that part.makes sense.

  • lol kinda,  but thats basically what I got from the whole glove thing.

  • It also couldve been used to poison the dog.

  • lol. good movie, don't know why... lol. 2 thumbs up.

  • saw this movie last night for the first time,, i woulda kicked his at the park too,, lol,, good movie and song

  • I wonder whatever happened to the Dad. Hate movies that leave me hanging!

  • Then 15 seconds later Joshua starts singing the song until the movie ends with his uncle having that look in his eye, like OMFG my brother-in-law was right!

    It's genius..

  • Although they make it seem like that at a couple points in the movie such as when the dad asks who left the mark on his lower back? And in the very end when the uncle seems like he cares so much, but IS NOT happy about all of what happened. When Joshua starts to sing it in the end the uncle looks at him and thinks about how his brother could be right about Joshua setting them up, but then turns and thinks no, not possible.

  • This movie is amazingly brilliant and I can clear things up for you about the end of the movie. Near the end the uncle seems like he cares a great deal about his nephew Joshua which all in all he will no matter what. I can assure you the uncle is not in on the scheme, setting the parents up (his brother-in-law aka the dad of Joshua and his sister the mother of Joshua).

  • his uncle actually showed affection and "acted" like he loved him.

  • can anyone explain the signifigance of this song and how he sings it to his uncle in the movie? the ending was so confusing.

  • the significance of this song, is that in the end he says "you always said i never missed a note, i only ever wanted to be with you" so in the end, he went through all of that to destroy his family, just to be with the uncle that he really felt cared about him

  • more than feeling that he care about him it was more like joshua was in love with his uncle

  • Prolly not the case. He was raised in a stable enviroment, and upon the baby this wasn't what he was surrounded by. He more than likely viewed his uncle as a stable person and went for it.

  • He was surrounded by a stable environment when the baby was born. My opinion is; he had more things in common with his uncle. Thats why he told his dad that he didn't have to love him. I mean the kid was obviously psychotic, he killed his own grandma, and drove his mother and father completely insane. The only time the environment wasn't stable was when Joshua made the baby cry all the time which drove the mother insane, and eventually the father too, which is what he wanted all along.

  • hahahahahha

    porra velho,vi esse filme agorinha e é mto interessante =] the fly é foda !!

    sociopatas?kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

    ------------------

    Putz, I saw that movie now is very interesting

    sociopath? kkkkkkkkkkkkkk

  • does anyone know the guitar tabs for this song?

    I've been going crazy trying to figure it out.

  • did you see the movie joshua?? talk about weird and scary!!!

  • such an great song!!

  • when i pull the wings off of a fly,

    The fly never wonders why i did it.

  • freaky song. i love it!

  • <3 i love u LOVE MEEEEE 0

  • love this song

  • If anyone knows how to play this song, please please please!! Make a How to video, I can't find anything on here and i cant find any chords for it! Eck please :(

  • pretty good song. its from that movie, Joshua, right?

  • Yes it is.

  • This song is just wonderful, it was so awesome when joshua sang it!

    love it!

  • This song is great

  • great movie. Josh is a creepy but "innocent" kid. have to watch this movie over & over again.

  • love it

    its soothing

    but with a sort eeriness to it

  • yeah its is. i need to watch the movie.

  • yes

    you do

  • lol, its good?

  • Yes, strange yet good

  • hmmmm. well, thats kool.

  • that kid was just creepy

  • he just wanted  someone to play.

  • hmm i wonder why he wanted to be with the uncle, it doesn't really show much about him.

  • It's just cause he paid attention to him

  • wspanial piosnek wspaniele slowa, nie samowita uwielbiam ja, duzo mi pomogla, duzo zrozumialme serdecznie polecam... maciej z polski

  • so okay does anyone else think that its weird that his uncle just sat there and let joshua just sing this song...?

    lol

  • that kid is so disturbing..

    i mean how would a nine year old be capable of driving his mother insane,making his dad look like he was abusing him, kill his grandmother, dog and guinea pig .

    weird.

    and how he saw the video of how hard he was to raise as a baby and he felt like he wasent important to his parents.

    and how his sister was easy and fun to raise and they gave her alot of attention and stuff.

    this movie is one of my favorites...weird but still great [:

    and this is song is pretty amazing.

  • He was a prodigy is how lmfao.
