Athlete - Wires ( Radio 1's Live Lounge )

[Burridge96]

There is no need for a video.

[AGENTCAROLINE]

This song gets me bawling every time. I always think about when my youngest daughter was in the hospital and it makes me remember the pain and the anger I felt.

[dons4europe]

My wee boy was born a month early and struggled to breathe for the first 3 weeks of his life . This song was in the charts at the time . He's now a wee livewire and always on his bike . This song helped us a lot.

[MrApfeltasche]

Goosebumbs. Everytime i'm listening to this wonderful song ...

[weekendOffender3]

where do i recognise that picture from !

[yumigrl94]

@weekendOffender3 I think it's one of the sample pictures on windows xp..

[thejammysammy]

This song will never die <3

[Psychosix]

Safe to say this is an example of a song with lyrics that capture the hearts and minds of 99% of the population. You don't need to be a parent to understand the heartfelt sentiment and love in this song.

The first day I heard this, I knew I'd love it forever.

[melc810]

This song was released at the right time for me. My child is alive and kicking but this tune keeps it real.

[nickoo319]

that one dislike clearly had his volume on mute

[TheTeamedwardlover]

i wasin the hospital the other day going to see a friend of mine who's just had her baby and i had this song playing on my mp3 as i walked past a ward that had babies on life suport and i just about vbroke down and cried

[TheTeamedwardlover]

i love this song, makes me sad the lyrics mean all too much to me, "theres dry blood on your wrist, your dry blood on my finger tip"

[TheTeamedwardlover]

i love this song, makes me sad the lyrics mean all too much to me

[MOGRULES345]

My cousin!

[BlindingLightMusic]

This song live, with the crowd singing - definitely in my top 5 moments of my life so far

[heyitsgiada]

tears, tears, tears.

[TheBlondeButton]

I think someone pressed the dislike button by accident !! x

[Meganlucyxxx]

my sister showed me this song. I sat crying... So touching.

[juniorstroke1990]

This is such a great song and when you know what its about and youve been through the same thing its very emmotional.. RIP little bro x

[midlandinns]

My wife stayed at home to look after our two baby boys while i went to hospital every morning before work and every night after work to get to our poorly boy.. the rush to see him through those automatic doors, nights praying to a god i dont believe in...Sid carroll RIP my son. Wires gets me everytime and i hope it continues to forever.

[assfacerz]

i believe the song is about his grandchild that was born premature the song is so powerful and i can relate to his words as my grandson was 13 weeks prem

[guvnorrbm]

This song tear's me asunder, Im not a depressed person or a softy... but this reduces me to tears

[luffybey]

omgg!!



[ClarityinthoughtUK]

please listen to our cover version - any feedback will be appreciated

[boastliketoast]

@sammie31 No. It's about how I think... correct me if I'm wrong the drummers little girl when she was born, had to be hoocked up to a machine at birth, I don't really know the full story. You could probabley find out alot more then I know on Google. Trust me, once you know what this song is really about you can really feel the emotion.

[jimmyduckegg]

I hate the fact this song is being known through a crappy vampire film. The lyrics are about prematurely born babies. Not your rubbish vampire drool. It is a fantastic song :)

[12345danbo]

love this song

[LoneXpython]

better than original

[brettski663]

Lost my little girl and can just get by if we don't hear this song.. kills me

[pcgill]

<3 this song so much, it tells the story of my premature babies life curled up on her own for the 1st 6 months of her life 5 years on lookin at her now you would never know, just like the lyrics. Reminds me of the struggle we all went through to get where we are today xxx

[hollarch1]

thumbs up if you knew this song before vampire diaries :)

[MrEwanphillips]

[MarkoVanBastard]

[eugenenoguera]

@piggychiggy The Song Is About Prematurely Born Children , The Singer Joel Potts baby was Premature so he wrote this song about the baby

[MayaaBaybee]

Emotional song (Y)

[donzin2007]

Perfeeita Música :D

[marmitehighway]

Cannot stop listening to this version. This song is amazing. Its so rare to sum up such horrendous emotions so concisely. This is the song that people will remember this band by in 50 years time. I'm not a father, and it still brings a tear to my eye.

[HELLO0709]

i know the lead singers cousin i think

not sure what relation but definitely a relation to the lead singer =)

[HELLO0709]

[slazer50]

has anyone here tried listening to the song while writing a comment? u may find it calms you down.... if it doesnt then you have problems

[stuy9777]

fuk u nigger

[malnurishedmacupial]

fuck you too white boy!

[mvdsandennn]

class version of this amazing song

[cystiq]

Anyone with kids will appreciate the lyrics to this song.

"First night of yur life, curled up on your own" just brings tears to my eyes.

Quality track.

[peenie57]

Wow aren't we great on here. Can't see a 'flaming' by anyone. That means we can have a conversation exploring the differences without threatening each other or wishing anyone harm. Gonna save this lovely gorgeous little space of cyberland as truly tolerant and constructive. (Watch some arse ruin it now!!!)

Kanye West would be a brave move, but don't judge until you've heard it.

[dq1990]

fuck u!

[puppetless]

CHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON!!!!!! I know I'm gonna get flamed as well, but wouldn't Kanye West sound great rapping on this version too? What do you guys think?

[TheUnforgiven0x]

Nahh... I think there's a distinct difference between proper mainstream r&b and rap and this stuff. I know my friends would e incredibly annoyed if that happened, as they did when Leona covered Run by Snow Patrol... Not a good idea

[puppetless]

No I didn't mean Kanye West covering it.......I mean if he had a verse and a chorus to rap in........with the song structure and arrangement remaining as it is...........still think it's a bad idea?

[malnurishedmacupial]

what the? i want what your smoking.

[alidaman12]

i am not knocking the people who have to go through proper awful things like premature births, but musically, i just dont find this song appealin... no doubt il get flamed by people who are emotionally attached to this song...it was just my 2 cents :)

[malnurishedmacupial]

no its your wright to have an opinion.

[xXTheMasterGamerXx]

I love this song, When my dad heard it he cryed becuase my sister was in a incambater which is what he is talking about in the song and it nearlly made me cry :( But loveing!

[Azerothpete1]

Man this song makes my family cry as my great auntie was in a car accident and died to the music. :-(

[xoxnuttyelliexox]

love this song makes me cry every time :( xXx

[smokinallthebud69]

love this but its a crap version this 1

[leedou72]

Its live...get out more!!

[jackcurtis90]

this song makes my mum cry , reminds her off my childhood, i was premature and born wih skin and lug cancer, i am ok now but this sng makes her cry.

[guyrwickenden]

You were born with cancer? I didn't know that was possible! Man, I hope you get better luck in the future.

[R10freestyle]

[imapornstarfoo]

[hardhollywoodhaywood]

[jazish]

Incredible song.

So powerful

[Tashyp]

This songs shit,

Yes it is,

Ive got tears, for the fact,

THAT YOU RETARDS LIKE THIS SONG!

Gamestation shitty music, what a lame song, what has the music industry become? Shit thats thats what!!!

Give me negative comments if you agree!

[electricsuperman]

no one is making you watch it if you dont like it why bother watching it?

[Tashyp]

lol yeah true. I dont like watching it, but i just think its crap tbh.

[Churchill11]

Great song, about his premature baby and you have the guts to say its shit tashy, i doubt youd like to go threw the pain he went through, if you think its so crap, how comes you aren't making money in a good band, insted your abusing anyone elses music perhaps because you cant make it yourself?

[mynameisjess93]

oh god, its so beautifully devastating. an incredible song

[GraciePink95]

shame its a bit chopped off at the end apart from thatt it was the shizzzz!

[fm1ledge]

Absolutely awesome.... A wonderful piece about a devastating start to fatherhood...

[hamish987]
