      ​@@princesparklestv6809 , how James got through, this I will never know. The suits wanted him to do a studio voice òver,and he refused. He sang this song raw and bleeding, and you can feel his pain. If anyone was ever unsure of what dispare looked like, James' face, his beautiful eyes, show every agony that one can feel over the loss of a parent. This was the first time that his father had heard the song, and he did so well. He must have pulled his son in close after the director called "cut", as I imagine that they would have both lost their composure after this. I'm so thankful that dad pulled through. I can't see this video without crying for my parents, who both died when I was 32. Your family's reaction was touching, thank you.

      And the feelings are not just sadness, but also happiness, anxious, guilty.. All of his songs touch some emotion, and it is different for everyone. Doesn't hurt that he is also just an amazing guy in conversation and approach. It may not be true, but I've also heard that he doesn't have some entourage following him around. He takes the train or bus to some events. Just like the rest of us. It speaks profoundly to his character.

      Wow! That is rough! My dad died of brain cancer 19 years ago, when my brothers and I showed up at the hospital, he asked why we were not at work, then he made us go home. He died five months later. The doctors decided that starving him to death would be a better option than the alternative. I talked to him two days before his death, he said goodbye to his granddaughters, and to my brothers and I. 19 years later, and it still hurts. I still need my dad. What hurts more than anything is that looking back, maybe he needed me more than I needed him, and I should have been more for him.

  • @youngthing12

    James and his father were both military men. James was actually a tank commander in the first gulf war. When he was being deployed, his father would say: "You're not my son, I'm not your father, we're just two grown men saying goodbye...". This song breaks me every time I hear it. The video was shot in one take, because James wanted the emotion to be raw and genuine. Yes, its a real story. His father was diagnosed with terminal kidney disease and this was written as a goodbye. In a positive irony, the song was so popular, it got the attention of a distant relative who turned out to be a match for a kidney donation and his dad is now doing great. Lovely reaction 👍🏻😁🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

    I guess it depends on what kind of relationship you had with your father, and if you had a father, as to how you will react to this song. Through most of my teens I thought my father was a monster. It was only later, with age and experience, that I could see somethings through his eyes, and determine that my childhood wasn't as bad as I had made it out to be, and that in his limited way he was trying to provide for his family as best as he could. We all try to do that for our children, and that is all we can do.

    James was a Captain in the British army and his father was a Colonel. The "two grown men saying goodbye" line was what they said to each other as James was being deployed to Kosovo in '99. Fortunately after this song got released a distant relative got in touch and was a match for his fathers organ donation.

    I love a lot of James Blunts songs, he connects with you in all his songs. Its similiar to how Ed Sheeran does with his, thats why they are close friends. I reckon Ed has taken some of James Blunts advice, before he become a big selling star. We here in the UK appreciate James but I do still think he is underrated even here. This song only got to number 6 in the UK Charts, ehich is a real surprise, when you consider some of the trash songs we get. Loved your raw reaction to the song and yes it is very emotional to listen too. His Father was told he didn't have long to live, so this was Jame Blunts goodbye song to him. Thankfully his Dad did get what he needed and survived, so its a better feeling knowing that.

    "I'm not your son. You're not my father. We're just two grown men saying goodbye".. When kids are little, their parents are Gods in their eyes... Especially their fathers, if they are fortunate enough to have them in their lives. Your Dad is a Superhero when you are little, but then, as you get older, and start to become a man yourself, you begin to exit the field of gravity of your parents. You begin to realize that they aren't God's.... They aren't Superheroes. They are flesh and blood, flawed beings, just like you are....and you begin to appreciate not just their greatness, but their flaws too. The point when a man and his son can stand together and relate as two grown men...together, is a beautiful thing... and this in this case, a very touching and emotional thing. It's an acceptance of the circle of life... and it is heart wrenchingly beautiful!

    I look at this song as speaking about a complicated relationship between Father and Son. Men, many times have conflicting feelings toward their Fathers because the lack of emotion involved in their relationship and not knowing what to expect from one another. A Mother shares a love for her Children as strong as a Fathers but a very different dynamic. For the Mother the bond begins before birth. The Mucho Macho stuff is involved and all that..My Husband died after 26 years of marriage. He had a horrible relationship with his Dad. I never even said that out loud to him.His wanting to impress him went on and on and on. My Husband and I moved to the MidWest from the West Coast. We would visit. They would visit. That is what it was like.. Just 2 Grown Men Saying Good-Bye..He so wanted more. My Husband never got it. He died at 47. I found myself hearing this song from that perspective.

    Watch Iam Tongi from Idol sing this. No disrespect to James Blunt who wrote the song but I actually felt it more when Iam sang it

    Sorry, don't know your names, but the lady in pink got it instantly. Just look at her eyes from the very beginning.

    Por esto es el cantante favorito de mi hija. Si la educamos muy bien.
    Porque si escuchará trap la daríamos en adopción.
    Y sobre todo esta canción la hace llorar y nos hace llorar , porque su abuela también estuvo enferma de los riñones y tuvo la suerte de q fue trasplantada 2 veces
    El primer transplante le duró 27 años pero por la misma enfermedad quística lo perdió.
    Y el segundo le duró asta q murió hace poco, porque fue perdiendo el transplante y ya ella no quería otra vez la diálisis. Decía q quería descansar q ya quería ir con sus padres abuelos etc.
    Se cansó se negó a tomar siquiera agua.
    Sufrimos y lloramos mucho rogándole q aunq fuera tomará los medicamentos, pero se negó totalmente. Asta q su cuerpo se rindió y se fue.
    Por eso esta canción siempre nos hace llorar y es la favorita de mi hija y bueno mía también
