  • I cried my eyes out the first time I heard this live in Miami ... it was the first time he presented it to the public. I will never forget the way the haunting sound of that guitar filled the room ... it was soul shaking. Love him ... brilliant song.

  • This mans lyrics are the definition of perfection.

  • some powerful images prolly different to everyone but beautiful...

  • Yes extremely addicted to this album. Every song I can relate to...unfortunately

  • I'm heading to see David Gray, Friday, May 28th, in Halifax, Nova Scotia, and can't wait. He is the best of the best. there is no better singer / songwriter out there. An interesting fact: "White Ladder" is the biggest selling album of all time in Ireland...home of U2....Hhhmmm.

  • I just went to see him in Concert for the second time, he is fricken amazing! what a great performer. LOVE him for his talent and honesty!

  • Nemesis,.......... looked it up in the Dictionary cause I really wasn't sure,........... an agency of retribution and vengance,........... "life, sweet life itself",............ the older you get the more you realise just how true that is,............ God this song just goes round and round in my head,........... they don't get much better , or deeper than this,............. outstanding!!.

  • i agree with you all the man is fantastic, and produces wonderful heart touching music :)

  • Fantastic...

  • Absolutely Brilliant.

  • The line "i am your one true love who sleeps with someone else" chokes me every single time i hear it. It's the most powerful song lyric i've ever heard.

  • This song is like an addiction for me...I come back and play it over and over all day long...Right now there is 37,133 views on this song. I wonder how many are from me????

    I Love, love this song,

    heck, I love the man who sings it too!!!

    Amazing lyrics, amazing voice, amazing David Gray!!!

  • @Janmemories ...oh, I have thought of many meanings to this song...drugs, love, but the ending, says it all..."life sweet life itself" Oh, .life and all of it's chapters...live and learn...and love, life, sweet life itself...

  • Brilliant lyrics!

    "I am ecstasy - spilling like bright egg yolk

    I'm the thoughts you're too ashamed to ever share

    And I am the smell of it - you're trying to wash out of you hair"

  • His lyrics and mix of melodies are freakn ridiculous!

  • would love to hear an acustic of david sing this song.

  • Saw him tonight in Indianapolis, IN and I must say I have seen some very good live acts (coldplay, BB King, etc) and David Gray is literally identical live that he is on record its truly incredible he was amazing.

  • Just saw him last night. The live performance of this song is so mesmerizing. It was beautiful.

  • going to see him next week! :)

  • How is David Gray relatively little known in the U.S.? I heard him first on satelite radio. One of the gifts my boyfriend and I gave eachother for Valentine's Day was David Gray CDs, White Ladder and Greatest hits. Niether one of us knew the other was doing this in advance. The only store that David Gray could be found in was Barnes and Noble. Gray has become one of my favorites. I would love to see him in concert.

  • @AccidentalArtist I actually got all his CDs at Wal-Mart believe it or not.

  • So many of the lyrics in this song i feel many people can relate to:

    'I'm the memory you can't get out your head......'

    'I'm the sound of money washing down the drain......'

    'I am the pack of lies that keeps you sane.......'

    'I'm the thoughts your too ashamed to ever share....'

    'I am the sudden and quite unexpected twist....'

    'I am your one true love who sleeps with someone else......'

    Could just be me but i think a lot of them make sense.

    Amazing lyricist, singer, all round artist

  • @gandjuicy

    I agree with you..so many people can be related to this wonderful and powerful lyrics and am one of them..Love David Gray..he's a legend..

  • @gandjuicy He's got the lyrical genius of Bob Dylan, the coherency of Tom Waits and the phrasing of Van Morrison.

  • Was also in Copenhagen, just one word WOW what a voice

  • Wow... this song and live performance of it... wow

  • This was brilliant at the Manchester Apollo last night :)

  • I have to admit other than Babylon I haven't really ever listened to David Gray. I've listened to bits of this new CD. I bought 2 songs off "Draw the Line", and Nemesis is my favorite. This song blows me away in it's message.
