  • Its a weird thing how specific this tune is. I think its just for us working class who lost our atheist dads. If you dont get that fair enough. Skinners a great man, a philosopher for the ages. Theres no higher praise as far as im concerned.

  • PURE PAIN = ALL HES SONG !

    LOVE IT

    ;'( i remember this !

    So sad..HAPPY MUSIC !

    Am i only one who turned this song up to the max when it came on !

  • i listen to this everyday

  • Hear what God of Israel YAHUSHUA-YAHUWAH (Son and Father are ONE) saying to our generation by His chosen prophets: Trumpetcallofgodonline. com ; Letter called "Purify Your Faith, and Come to the Father as It is Written": EXCERPT: "Only in the Bible and through these very Letters, of which I have given to My prophet of the end of this age, shall you find Him and know Him."

  • The beat is similar as from The Beatles - Hey Jude. Good song anyway...

  • @DenisTheCoach it reminds me of "let it be" the words fit the piano too strangely

  • @hooker1uk You're right. Not Hey Jude, but Let it be...

  • @DenisTheCoach I thought more "Let it be"

  • @DenisTheCoach dont you mean let it be ?

  • my dad still does not realise how much he hurt all of the family!!! the wanker

  • One of mikes best tunes IMO.

  • I like how the rapping is done in more of a reading or telling a story type of way, other than stupid auto tune bitches n hoes bullshit that we have in America.

  • 240p... we meet again...

  • @scarecrowe94 Nice copied post... Bet that took you a while to think up. Mike Skinner doesn't need HD to be amazing, this proves it.

  • ultimate respects for mike!

  • Alcohol and christianity...

    I always remember my grandfather who passed away 15 years ago. He was like a father to me and the first time I listened to this song I couldn't help but cry. A really moving song.

  • Dad's been gone over three years and it feels like yesterday....This amazing track came out at about the same time I think, gave me hope through some very dark times... Happy birthday Dad.. mum n me miss ya xxxe

  • Dad passed away 3 years ago this month. Miss you Dad. RIP.

  • For my Dad - The ache in my heart grows a little easier to bear with each passing year, but I know it's a wound that will never completely heal...

  • amazing!

  • I honestly cried when I first heard this

    'I hope I made you proud' is such an amazing line even though it is so simple

  • mike got sould_claps

  • this is a million times better than all those faggots now a days, disney channel ball bags

  • first sat on that bench 18 years ago!

  • the church in hawkshead!!!!

  • A voz de Michael Skiner e sua performance é o must!

  • big tune

  • So sad. :(

    Makes me cry.sob.sob.sob.

  • This makes me cry even though i got my dad,makes me realise how terrible my life would be without him he truly understands me and the situatuion im in :')

  • the only one that can make me love british english.. ;]

  • what does this song mean? he lost his dad, but i cant work it out, is he an alchoholic or what?

  • let it be...let it be......!!!

  • dad love you rip love the black sheep

  • My new year resolution is not to cry when I hear this

    Such a partykiller

  • @DMTwannaB what partys do you go to?

  • @PickeringSamuel vague ones

  • i remember listening to this on repeat when my grandad died...cried for a week straight but such a beautiful song

  • I find it too hard to listen to this track reminds me of lost family and friends love you all rest in peace xx

  • I dont remenber to ever had cry with a hip hop song

  • Normally i'm just listening to French/German Rap, but this song is great and in our music video version in germany are German lyrics in it.. Thumps up for this song!

  • This is my exception for hip/hop

  • Seriously how does this song only have 372k views?

  • anyone that can recommend any other song from the streets? I already like this one and when you where famous ^^

  • @Nelpan Going Through Hell is the Best they made

  • @o0Aspire0o nah the best one is edge of a cliff i loved that one but hey lol they're all great

  • @o0Aspire0o blinded by the lights by far

  • @Nelpan check out dry your eyes and the escapist and good for a change is blinded by the lights

  • "When I find myself in times of trouble, mother mary comes to me - speaking words of wisdom - let it be.."

  • @Tinesilke It was his dads favourite song, so he used the piano riff

    

  • MIKE SKINNER is the only artist that if he died today i would cry ....

  • Sh!t mike, you hit the nail on the head mate!

    My wife looked up her real dad on google the other day, found out he's still around and doing ok as an artist - he's retired. She was seven when he left them, in a wee flat in London - went and started a whole new life.

    She's a pretty good artist herself - but her dad wouldn't give a toss, he wouldn't even know. She's also a wee bit religious, so the church thing's quite relevant.

    She was pretty cut up about it for a few days, but life goes on...

  • tears in my eyes, mike skinner you legend!

  • big hard cock spunking all over the screen blllllala bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla ssssssssssssssppppppppppppuuuu­uuuuuuunnnnnnnnnnnnnnkkkkkkkkk­kkkk

  • he looks like wesley sneijder in this video! great song love it

  • If it wasn't for Jimmy Kimmel, I don't think I would have ever heard this song. I do love it. It brings back a lot of good (and some not so good) memories of my pop.

    What's up with Skinner's teeth? Can't he afford to get them fixed by this point?

  • @HellBlazerRaiser he actually did that recently... check out latests songs

  • @latiguin If he did get them fixed, then it's about bloody time!!!

    I'd love to ask him why his parents let him grow up with those effed up choppers.

    Did he ever go to the dentist when he was a kid?

    If he did see a dentist after those permanent grotesqueries came in, the dentist should have forced his parents to get them fixed.

  • @HellBlazerRaiser you wanker. just more proof that appearance is important????? NOT THE FACT THAT HE IS PURE TALENTED. what the fuck you look like r you perfect NOOOOOOOOOOOOO YOU MUST BE deaf aswell as retarded mong

  • @HellBlazerRaiser maybe hes not as shallow and as vain as all you tossers out there. look at him from the pogues his teeth r fucked u tit

  • @MultiStei My teeth are naturally perfect. My dentist always tells me he wishes his kids' teeth came in as perfect and straight as mine because it would have saved him a lot of money on braces.

  • Maybe he's not a vain cunt

  • Mike is the man.

  • @DomHowardsFluoPants and you are the bitch

  • I always loved this song but now it just makes me cry. " If you were still about I'd ask you what I'm supposed to do now"...

  • One of mikes most touching songs. I hate when I mention the streets to people and they say who? Means I have to backhand them fools.

  • Comment removed

  • @FNGDrumandBass wouldnt we rather have it that way? it just goes to show how spoonfed the public is with so called "music", and thats what makes it 10 times better when you actually meet someone who likes the streets or anything else that isnt as appreciated as much as it should be.

  • @FNGDrumandBass Really? they weren't that good.

  • @realbadbav you must be sniffin some strong shit to think that

  • @PickeringSamuel I think it's the otherway round....

  • @realbadbav one of the best artists to come out of england

  • @PickeringSamuel lol, Seriously, That's genuinly the funniest thing I may have ever heard.

  • @realbadbav you've got a great sense of humor then

  • @PickeringSamuel No mate, you've got the best Jokes

  • Mikeeeeeeeeeee !!!!!!

  • Tune! R.I.P Jon

  • @MVCproductions2011 hahahahhahahahhahahhahhahahaha­hahahahahaha i would say sorry for your loss but im not yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyeeeeeeeee­eeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb­bbbuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuddd­dddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd­dddddddddyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy­yyyyyyy

  • I miss my dad, yo.

  • This song... It makes me cry every time. Everything is so descriptively life-like, like the personality of my own father was coloured properly in the lyrics.

    "Mum says you and me were the same from the start...."

    I'm not afraid to show how much that makes me miss him when that comes up.

  • Mike skinner = legend! So so underrated?

  • i'm a fucking soldier and hate my dad but this?mit makes wonder.....he's dead but?

  • Marvin Gaye = Mike Skinner. Amazing. Make a Billion dollars good.

  • this video was made where i live...........awesome

  • @frecs09 you live in awesome?

  • This song reminds my dad of his dad and it reminds me of mine ! So powerful

  • Love this song ;) x 

  • heartbreaking :(

  • This song reminds me of your dad

  • I grew older and all those words my dad told me just seem so clear, used to not care but now i wish he told me more. luv u dad!

  • i think of this song for my mom rather than dad

    she past 7 years ago

    fuckin shit times

    but this helped me through it

  • This song makes me grateful my dad is still here. Mike Skinner is a genius, a legend.

  • If you were still about,

    I'd ask you what I'm supposed to do now,

    I just get a bit scared,

    Every now,

    Hope I made you proud.

    I still miss you Christopher <3

  • I loved this when it was first released. Forgot all about it, how dare i? Amazing song, absolutely love it - so glad i found it again! Cry every time i listen - so beautiful <3

  • @magicalesther snap to that my friend 

  • pure greatness. feel it all around youu bless all Holy spirits in the world in his name. there can only be mistakes an happiness in life nothing is perfect or goes the way you planned it but it all comes togther with Positive.

  • Dont get me wrong I love the Streets!!!! and this is my favorite song of theirs, Its sad that if you released this in america with a different group, This song would have 45 million view's Sad:( Most underrated group in The world:(

  • @1Crisper i think the fact that most music in america is rap and stuff but this is just brilliant , its more of a poem song to me but thats y i mean there will always be haters somewhere

  • 14 people have no feelings what so ever.

  • such a good tune, brings thoughts and other things to my mind :)

  • this song reminds me of the mr blobby song

  • i forgot u left me behind to remind me of you <3

  • i don't see how this song has any dislikes. It is a fucking brilliant song.

  • this song is amazing !! it brings tears to my eyes!!!

  • that sounds a bit like ''No Woman no Cry'' xD

    give thumbs up if you agree..

  • @Kondomi1337 so thats no1 then.

  • It's amazing, maybe the best thing i've ever heard.

  • this is sooo f...... beautiful!

  • isnt the music, let it be by The beatles?

  • @gogoliam Its the piano line yes, as his dads favourite band was The Beatles :)

  • I never appreciated this when I was younger, only hearing it again now do i realise how amazing it is.

  • My mom passed away from stomach cancer last July. This song, for some reason, struck a good nerve. Keep up the music.

  • every line of this is beautiful i find myself always comeing back to this song.

  • Great comedy record.

  • @CarrierBagMan

    Put your rod away.

  • @CarrierBagMan Poor fishing.

  • wow... ive just found this... truly amazin... honestly

  • mike mate miss your type of music man sick artist ! need to get back in the charts mann !

  • I forgot you left me behind to remind me of you...

    probably one of the best lyrics ever written

  • this is one of they few things that make me cry. it reminds me of my grandad who died like 6 years ago now. i was the last person he spoke to as well :'(

  • Im a punk and even I love the streets, own every album : ) Great music reminding me of a few years back, fucking great times

  • he's done more to dilute the tedious stiff-upper-lip machoness of British males than most - this is a great, great record.

  • @baboon2525 i always think of british men as girly lol idk why

  • @bleedingxhearts2 You need to go on a night out in a small british town mate..that'll change your mind.

  • @baboon2525 ya see i dont really know im an american and thats just the impression i get but ya i believe you i just never heard about it until now

  • @bleedingxhearts2 i'm not from the UK originally but have lived here for most my life, and i think that british men are the most manliest men around. big voice, big builds, loves a good scrap, loves a pint ;)... to each his own, i guess :P

  • @CoffeeBeatsTea lol well when you put it that way... i guess they looked manly on the movie eurotrip lol great movie you should youtube the bar scene if you havent watched it

  • makes me think of my dad ...... sleep tight .... pop

  • love this song or is it poetry either way makes me cry everytime i hear it missin u still dad this reminds me so much ov u love u millions xxx

  • The Streets is one of the few artist who continually gives me goose bumps when I listen to the lyrics.

  • @flamadiddler haha lol

  • @flamadiddler This song can make me cry, thats not something that many songs do

  • @flamadiddler actual

  • @flamadiddler if your strong or or not it makes no difference how u feel like i very rarely cry and um not anything special
