Lyrics:
There are nine million bicycles in Beijing
That's a fact;
It's a thing we can't deny
Like the fact that I will love you 'til I die.
We are twelve billion light years from the edge
That's a guess;
No one can ever say it's true
But I know that I will always be with you
So don't call me a liar
Just believe everything that I say...
There are six billion people in the world
More or less
And it makes me feel quite small
But you're the one I love the most of all
Instrumental
We're high on a wire with the world in our sight
And I'll never tire
Of the love that give me every night
There are nine million bicycles in Beijing
That's a fact;
It's a thing we can't deny
Like the fact that I will love you 'til I die
And there are nine million bicycles in Beijing
And you know that I will love you 'til I die. - Hudba
Who's still listening this masterpiece in 2024? 🙋♂️
I am with u. My favourite. Reminded of this song when my friend said he is Beijing today 😅
@@sanelisiwevernon4920 I was in Beijing for two months in 2012... It's not all that neat tho. There's A LOT of negative things too - besides the nine million bicycles 😁 Wouldn't trade that experience off tho But the people live in such suppression... Still lucky to live in Finland, eve tho the direction seems to be worse and worse here too. But still feel as a lottery winner 👍
I'm here first time after hearing her in tv news 😍
Мы тут, мы здесь...)
Me. Today is May.12, 2024
One song that will live forever. What can one say.
That's a fact, and a thing we can't deny.
@norman smithers Gotta say both
I am a bicyclist and saw the title,"9 Million Bicycles,while on CZcams,and thought,I'll listen.I found a great talent.
I’ve been listening to this song for at least three years
Over 10 years for me.. I bought her autographed cd on the newburycomics website for $3.. figured what the hell.. best $3 I ever spent in terms of musical knowledge gained
What’s your favorite kind of place to bike through?
@@loganroark3916 I love slick rock like what Moab has
Do you race? How many miles you petaled last year?
Who’s still listening to this masterpiece in 2021 ?🙋🏻♀️
Me

Me
Definitely me
We never left 🥰
Lyrics:
There are nine-million bicycles in Beijing.
That's a fact,
It's a thing we can't deny,
Like the fact that I will love you 'til I die.
We are twelve-billion light years from the edge.
That's a guess,
No one can ever say it's true,
But I know that I will always be with you.
I'm warmed by the fire of your love every day.
So don't call me a liar,
Just believe everything that I say...
There are six-billion people in the world.
More or less,
And it makes me feel quite small,
But you're the one I love the most of all.
We're high on a wire with the world in our sight,
And I'll never tire,
Of the love that you give me every night.
There are nine-million bicycles in Beijing.
That's a fact,
It's a thing we can't deny,
Like that fact that I will love you 'til I die.
And there are nine-million bicycles in Beijing,
And I know that I will love you 'til I die.
Enjoy it.
But all the bicycles are gone now...
Beijing have high-speed rail....
2021They are 9million covid 19 cases in your town
6 billion? lol
I've listened to this song 9 million times...more or less. Great song by Mike Batt
My friend Robert was head of music in Saint Dominics college, Belfast northern Ireland... Katie was one of his pupils..... her dad was a cardiologist here in the Royal Victoria hospital, Belfast.
My boyfriend suggested me this song. He is the sweetest little bean. I love him so much. I want to come back to this comment after 10 years and say how much I still love him.
i love that. i wish you two all the happiness of the world ♥
L espoir fait vivre...
O-o-ok
Tambien mi novio me recomento esta cancion, me parecio muy bonita
Wow! that's so sweet
I've been looking for this song for at least 10 years! I used to find it so calming when I was little. And back then I didn't understand any English so I couldn't memorize the lyrics, I only remembered the video... I heard it on a road trip in my friend's car today while half asleep and suddendly was like "YES! This is that song!" Lol
hungary!
Virág Natália Szűcs wow, that's the best feeling
Simple red
Virág Natália Szűcs I know that feeling ! haha
végre egy magyar! miért nem kérdezted meg valakitől?
Every time I hear this song, I cry, I cry my dead wife and I tell her that even if she is deceased I will always love her. This is a beautiful song, thank you for making me dream.
Im too, everytime heard it i was cry . I dont know i miss him so much. This song very very good
i know it is no help, but i have tears for your love to yo woman. respect
Sorry bro
This breaks my heart. Wish you all the best.
Pierre Briand , I am in the same unfortunate boat brother,
I have seen this video hundred times, showing it to my friends, we love it, greetings from a fan from Norway (60 years), praying for love and happiness and peace for all people in the world
That’s so sweet of you! Is this your favorite song?
My ex introduced this song to me. He was my one true love, and made me feel soulmates can exist - even though we're no longer together, this song has such beautiful memories packed for me. And they will always remain...till I die.
All the best for your future
Wish you the best in the world
My mother passed away last night, she had an agressive form of cancer. She also felt in a coma the night earlier, she always loved this song she told me. It was her favorite song, this now means so much to me..
sorry about your mother :'( this is the time when i try to be happy with the things i have
Jacob Spliffyfucker im sorry
Sorry to hear ! Passing on the love
Sorry to hear
First 2 words came not from me Sorry indeed writing tape it Sorry indeed Nevertheless all the best
Could we take a moment to appreciate how well written this song really is. The lyrics........... So charming and clever. How many songs have you heard in recent times that are so lyrically poetic? Most of what cracks America's top 100 is someone featuring someone, singing about someone elses ass........its appeals to the lowest faculties of a human being. This song though.....is about something sweet and beautiful.
There are many such songs, also written by Mike Batt..... check out his songs.. for example: czcams.com/video/ZNk84lfD-IA/video.html
Great comment.... Most pop music in 2019 is absolute trash. Thankful we can still listen to artist like Katie.
Hi
.. a bit random but is anyone here able to help me please with translation of my lyrics into another language? I 🥰💖😊
Can't agree more
The song is absolutely incredible
Never heard this song before... I am Peruvian living in Italy, I saw this video on tv and I loved the lyrics and the video is just insanely I ❤️❤️❤️❤️ so happy I heard this! So crazy about it on 2021
Czy w 2022 roku na Was ta piosenka nadal robi wrażenie??? Na mnie TAK!!!!❤️
jest cudowna... nie wiem dlaczego, ale sluchajac jej az chce sie przeniesc w czasie...
@@nataliaorzechowska7814 Czuję dokładnie to samo. 🌺
@@nataliaorzechowska7814 Bo to były lepsze czasy.
9 Million thumbs up
+Andreas Fischer Not for u :>
You're talking about views, right? And even that's not a fact anymore.
+Ozzi I think he meant for the song!
+Dini Asta Haha i see now! :D
There are nine million reasons to love Katie,she's just so lovely.
KATIE sure has Her FANS !
Deserving Devoted Fans, Too!
❤ 😂
This is such a great song. She got an amazing voice.
Our wedding song.... and still glad we chose this number because it still describes our feelings for each other ❤️
How lucky you are! 👏🏻
I come from Beijing and study in Germany. When I hear this song, I don't know why tears on my eyes.
Cos it is Beijing. The connection is there. :)
Wow she's soooooo underrated. Her voice is pure class
yeah... and that fat ultrawhealthy Adele with not so big talent, has billions of wiews on Ytube... This is music industry.
Checking her Wikipedia page : "In 2006, she was the United Kingdom's best-selling female artist and Europe's highest selling European female artist. According to the Sunday Times Rich List 2008, Melua had a fortune of £18 million, making her the seventh richest British musician under thirty.
Melua was the best-selling UK female artist of 2004 and 2005.
In 2006, Melua had a tulip named after her.
According to VH1, Call Off the Search is the 87th best-selling British album in history."
So I don't think we can say she's underrated, she was just there before CZcams was a thing and Adele came after (who's also talented) :)
@@Bertheva Well said
One of my all time favorites. And she is so beautiful!
Yes, she is, and a great voice 😂😊👍🎉🇩🇪
Another beautiful song by a verry verry beautiful Lady. I know as old as I am now I will never get to meet her only maybe in heaven. I know she will be busy there preforming some day. Oh that voice it has to be from an angel and coming from a beautiful lady, God bless you Katie.
This was my late, beautiful Grandmother's song for me. So, so missed and loved, my Elzabe Cornelia Compton 17.11.1930 - 01.09.2018
That's the favourite song of my 5 months old daughter. She's smiling and laughing at that song and she's calming down. Thank you Katie Melua.
She's 4 and a half and beautiful I'm sure. Treasure every moment. My boy just turned 18.
Ultimate lyrics. Lovely voice. Outstanding singing and music. What a song! This is how music ought to be.
2022 and this will never get old
Bardzo przyjemna i spokojna piosenka można jej słuchać cały czas. Polecam i pozdrawiam.
To prawda, prawda.
In a recent live performance she said there are '7 billion people in the world'. I love that little change :D
Ryan we got a question in A2 physics unit 5 about this song,she said we are "12 billion light years away but that's a guess" and the question asked us to discuss "values for the age of universe are only guesses" lol glad I found this song tho
Cool that makes the song timeless
and maybe by now down to only 7 million bicycles too, while car numbers and pollution on the increase.
@@inanahsans6636 IAL
Dad always played this - "You know I will love you till i die" is just... I cant explain. I miss my dad.
16 years later and this song still causes goosebumps all over my body
16 years later she still causes goosebumps all over my body
Still listening in 2020 beautiful feeling
It brings me back memories. My mom used to play this for us when I was like 6 probably.
Beatles
Me
@@dacianbuzlea my mom used to play it when I was about 4 or 5 all the time, we used to play board games while we listened to it. Now that I come back to the music triggeres so many memories. I miss England, good times with mom 😌
VERY SPECIAL YES............RIGHT HERE!!!!!!
We are 13.7 billion light years from the edge of the observable universe,
that's a good estimate, with well defined error bars,
and with the available information I predict that I will always be with you.
This is the most Asian romancing I ever read.
You are wrong...New calculation suggests 12 billion light years.
I went searching in the comments purely for this correction
@@lgcookie1933 She was right... Newly discovered calculations say that Universe is around 12 billion years old.
Everyone here is wrong, we are over 40 billion light years from the edge. The universe can expand faster than the speed of light fools 😂
Katie has such an angelic voice... It's addictive!
Absolutely! Is this your favorite song?
It's August, 2021 and I'm back here, listening to this beautiful masterpiece 🥺
I hope I'll be back to rewatch this in the future ♥️
One of the most beautiful songs ever written and recorded, and that little foot shake at the end is perfect!
This song is so calmingly beautiful & the lyrics are just beyond wonderful.
best comment, i agree 100%
I was 24, and I just played again and again and again this song on my discman. And now I am 40, and I show this song to my husband, and playing it again and again and again....
We've added two billion more since this wonderful song came out.
Everytime I listen to this song, it reminded me of the person I loved. The person who showed me that loving even you're an island away is possible. The person who never gave up even you committed multiple mistakes. A person who always understands. A person who I took for granted. A person who is now being loved by another person. Up until the moment, I am still full of regrets. I am still paying the debts for the mistake I made. But I am happy for you now, I am glad there's someone better who is taking good care of you.
One of the best love songs ever written.
Touching my heart after all these years.
Coole Adresse!
I listen to this song over and over...Katie has such a beautiful voice...will always love this song...❤❤❤
Katie´s voice are simply amazing!
Great song from one singer who sings from your soul!
“I don't know what's worse: to not know what you are and be happy, or to become what you've always wanted to be, and feel alone.”
I'm Batman.
Thank you to this beautiful song. This was actually my Nan's favourite song and was played at her funeral. It's a lovely song and she loved your voice especially Katie. Thank you.
+Jeanne Lear Your Nan must have been a lovely lady.
My grandad had it at his funeral as he liked this song.
No. The most stupid thing is your spelling and use of prepositions.
Lol. Learn to spell and while you are at it get some manners. I can't believe how rude you are.
Van Tazz Can be applied to both. Equally as meanigfull and beautiful: loving someone.
The amazing vocal that makes the song so beautiful ♥️ 🕊️
Just simply an amazing song. The voice, the lyrics…everything. People, enjoy - this is a master piece!
I heard this song for the first time in the first Chinese restaurant I ever been at..This song and that place made it a magical experience for me as a child..
As a kid my dad taught me how to use chopsticks in a Salt Lake City Chinese restaurant. My work took me to Tianjin, China and indeed there are at least 9 million bicycles here!
I love Katie’s voice! It’s one of the most unique and prettiest ones that I’ve ever heard. I love this video. I’m not sure who’s idea it was but it’s very creative, interesting and fun to watch.
Beautifully written , and incredible lyrics not forgeting this amazing singer
I only heard this tune for the first time today. Beautiful lyrics and Katie Melua's voice is fabulous.
What a great song performed by a talented and beautiful woman.
I recently spent a day flying coast to coast and spent several hours in a crowded terminal. Very long day, but I put my headphones on and listened to this song. I could instantly feel the stress leave my body as I relaxed and actually felt calm and happy.
Thank you Katie!
She USES that voice so magically
Unbelievable how we can see where this outstanding music is taking us to y’all this is magic.✨🌟⭐️
I searched for the most popular Irish songs of all time and this was the first video. Interestingly, Katie is Georgian and I saw her perform in person in Tbilisi years ago. Great voice indeed!
It's a wondeful song! An amazing voice!
The feelings that we have while we are listening this piece of art seems to be a therapy for those times....
The most beautiful voice and song. Good music and talent never dies. Katie Melua forever!
This song is just something else, so so beautiful. She expresses her love for her lover so smoothly and sweetly and so absolutely. It’s very moving.
This is the first time I'm hearing this magnificent melodic & poetic masterpiece of song! Instantly in love with Katie's song.... I'm not a native English speaker but the tune and the lyrics probably tunes to my heart...
What a wonderful voice… I love Katie Melua and specially this song, I heard it for the first time as I gave birth to my son (now he‘s 16 years)… this song remembers me how happy and grateful I was, and how much I love my son and also my daughter ❤🥰👫🏽
God pls promise that this song will never be forget
never tire of this its just so beautiful.
Love this song. Tears in my eyes.. again and again. Everytime.
She is so lovely. LG Lucia
It really pulls you in🙂
The genius pen of Mike Batt, haunting backing, the beautiful voice of Katie Can't get more special.
I love this, every thing about this lady is great. Keep on singing Katie!
This song is nice and it is special to me because my grandad liked it before he passed away. We played it at his funeral. R.I.P. Grandad Eddie love and miss you more and more each day. Xxxxxxxxx
Listening 🎶 to this on damp grey March afternoon in Darlaston West Midlands England.
Beautiful song 🎵
In my opinion, Katie Melua is one of the most beautiful ladies with one of the most beautiful voices in music 🥰. This song is one of my favorites ever. It sounds so warm and peaceful 😇. She sings with a lot of expression and you get the impression that she is singing the song just for you 😊.
Speaking of warm and peaceful , I also find Zooey Deschanel music having very same quality . Both Zooey and Katie are wonderful artists and a pleasure to listen .
That's a lovely lovely voice and this song should get more than 9 Million Likes.
even after 7 years it's still beautiful
+Mars Mahoney it's over 10 years old....

Mars Mahoney

With out doubt the greatest singer of all time xx
Definitely the Best Lyrics, Music, Video and Performance of the 21st century so far.
This song was one of my childhood, I found this in a Sony Ericson bar phone back then
Beautiful song. I love her voice. She's also gorgeous.
I'm still listening and will always listen to your songs. They touch me inside.
I listen this song in 2009 while I was playing online radio, first time it touched my heart. Since then, this has been one of my favorite song.
Voice of an angel. Love all the songs you sing...
This song is how I imagine happiness feels like.
I'm 20 years old and when I heard this song first when I was 8 I thought it was like the worlds best song period. now I've listened to a lot of music but can confirm this one's at the top there
Same :)
This song came up on the music GSCE today! I liked it so much that I found it to add to my Spotify. ❤❤
One of the most beautiful voices & instrumentals I have ever heard :)

Jayraj Jonson gee thanks ;)
I still listen to her song on 30/11/2021! Actually I'm attracted to her "piece by piece" which sound so 007-esque, esp the start of the guitar pluck with the "First of all must go, your scent upon my pillow, and then i say goodbye to your whisper in my dream......"
This is such a gorgeous song and so beautifully sung.katy is sounderated.
