      I seen them recently at oakengates theatre in telford,
      They're a great band and yes he's gotta great voice,
      And he's very approachable. He mixes with the fans
      After the show and will have a bit of chat, he's a lovely
      Bloke, hey and he even shook my hand 😎

    This summed up my years after mum died leaving dad to cope by himself. Giving everything and expecting nothing back but the right to live in peace. He passed last year leaving us to suffer these times. I miss his conversation his cooking his views of the world.

    • @lizaC0001
      @lizaC0001 Před 3 lety

      I resonate so much with your comment, Leo. Dad gave his all, even after mom died died, right to his dying day. He held on for his children, and I had to say " it's okay dad, we'll be alright. Go and rest from all your pain and suffering through the years". He died that night and I felt so alone and lost. Ten years later I still cry, and think of everyone who has lost a parent or a child. We don't get over things, we get through them, sometimes a day at time. Music like this brings back memories, tears and peace somehow.

I have realized through the years that we need to find a way to forgive ourselves for all we just couldn't do, no matter how hard we tried. It is not easy and again I say, we don't get over things like the death of a loved one, we get through them. My thoughts are with you.

    Wait a minute let me speak,
    Let me share the grief that lies behind your smile
    There's people turning bad feeling sad, misunderstanding
    And the world's going mad
    You watch TV, and you shake your tortured head
    And I watch the world
    And I really think we might be better off
    Father, you've been a long time so lonely
    Hear me now, Father
    You've got a stake in my soul, so console me
    I need it now, we need it now
    Genocide reveals the foulest swoop
    The sweetest lips received the soured fruit again
    A killer swears he's just a thief
    A thief declares he's just a victim of kinds
    And I watch the world, and there really isn't more to life than dying
    Father, you've been a long time so lonely
    Hear me now, Father
    You've got a stake in my soul, so console me
    I need it now, we need it now

    Tenía esta canción en algún lugar, dentro de mi mente desde los 18, cuando varias veces se la oí a mi padre, harto de varias drogas. Hoy mis padres ya están separados. Sigo en contacto con los dos pero con la distancia que provoca tan grande dolor. Con mi padre tratamos de recordar esta canción. Esta semana estuve con él en el hospital. MIs dos hermanos no hablan con él. No se lo reprocho y los respeto. Tantos sentimientos encontrados...

    I love this song. A few years ago when me dad died, every night for the next few days I would put me headphones on and play it on loop and cry myself to sleep.
    That video by the way looks bonkers. It looks like the image stabilization is doing its job but the final edit hasn't been cropped and resized to hide all the moving edges (very simple to fix). It might have worked on a CRT TV screen, but is obvious on modern full screen players.
