"You have to forgive them for yourself". I forgave my father in his last few months. took him into my home and cared for him, along with my wifes help. i sat and held his hand one night when he was doing particularly bad. at some point i dozed off and when i awoke at dawn he had passed away. i'm so glad i was able to do that for him. whether he deserved it or not i deserved it. i didnt do it because he was a good man, i did it because i am.
I lost my dad May 4th 2023 n my Mama passed in Aug 2022 so its a double hitter for me an this song got me, by the end I was bawling so hard. I was both my parents care takers an both passed while holding my hand. Condolences to all who have lost their parents.
Lost mom in 2020 almost lost dad 2021 and dad's gf had heart attack Thursday June 20 2024. She survived has pacemaker. My condolences to you and your family. Just keep those memories alive and you will never truly loose them. ❤❤
All proceeds from this song were denoted to Help For Hero's a veterans charity in the UK. Both James and his were in the army
They said there was not a dry eye in the room except for Charles Blount when this video was done. He asked why is everyone crying? I am still here! I have seen this more times than I can say but still tear up every time. You can see on the first time he says we are just two grown men saying goodbye, the expression changes. I could tell "while you're sleeping I'll try to make you proud". That line gets to me everytime!
This is beautiful but heartbreaking 💔
This song makes me ugly-cry, snot and all, every time. Every single time. I still have my dad, we talk all day every day, but I can’t hear this without ugly sobbing.
This song and the story behind it made a lot of people sign up to the donor register around the world and his father Colonol Charles Blunt was saved as were many other people around the world. All the proceeds from this song were donated to the Help the Heroes charity of great Britain which helps take care of our veterans and their families as both Colonol Charles Blunt and Captain James Blunt were both in the British army. The line i am not your son, your not father we are just two grown men saying goodbye is something that they would say to each other before deployments.
Please watch Iam Tongi sing this for the judges on American Idol it is a absolutely rendition of this song. Truly beautiful ❤
I lost my dad 2 years ago. This song hits me like a brick, but it is cathartic and help me release the pent up emotions.
I loved your genuine reaction to this video. Women love grown men who aren't afraid to cry. James Blunt is awesome.
The story goes that at the end of the shoot the whole crew were crying his dad turned round and said what are you all crying for I’m still here.
the little pat on his arm at the end - you've already made him proud James.
The father still comforting his son.
James dad was actually dying from kidney failure & this was his tribute & farewell to his dad. Thankfully his dad received a donor kidney from a distant relative who reached out after this song came out & is doing okay now,this was the first time James played the song to his dad , the crew and James himself was crying and his dad said ‘why is everyone crying I am not dead yet’ , the record company wanted to auto tune the song but James said no because he wanted it to be real
James dad was actually dying from kidney disease & this was his tribute & farewell to his dad. Thankfully his dad received a donor kidney & is doing okay now. If this song doesn't get to you emotionally, there is something wrong with you. This song resonates with me as I was my dad's caregiver for 5 years until he passed away 2 years ago.
I'm sorry you lost your father so young. Thank you for sharing this.
We lost my father-in-law just over a year ago to cancer. This was played at his funeral. Hearing it crucified all of us

I felt this song, my dad was 44 when he passed, I was his caregiver for 14 years, he had a train accident in 2003 and he survived but he was handicapped and my grandma was taking care of him til I moved to the country, in 2021 when covid hit he passed. This August is gonna be 2 years.
@@matthewwinterle5475 it just doesn’t have to be for a dad figure could be for a brother or uncle or a mother or sister sometimes we change words in a song for it to resonate with us, I could be wrong but that what I do
James and his dad are both military men so emotions were not always shown . This was the first time his Dad heard this song . Beautiful tribute to his father
I HELD MY DAD'S HAND WITH HIS ONLY GRANDCHILD HOLDING THE OTHER AS HE SLIPPED AWAY. I AM 75 NOW & IT IS STILL LIKE YESTERDAY. I KNOW WHERE H IS, MY SON JOINED HIM IN 2021. NOW I'M IN A NURSING HOME. I WAIT. GORGEOUS SONG.
Never heard this before. Wish I could have said good bye to my mom. She died of a massive stroke 2 yrs ago. Never had high blood pressure or any kind of warning or illness to suspect it was a possibility. As a nurse, when you're saving people from such things and can't save your own, it's even harder. I'm blubbering like a fool here. What a beautiful song and message. Thx Travis😎
when i buried my father in 2014, no tears . Hearing this song last year made the pent up tears just flow , and every time i hear it , the tears flow,
A great reaction, thankyou! This song is the great leveller. In all the reaction videos to this you see all the "showbiz" stripped away from the CZcamsr. All thats left is the real person behind the bluster. Whats revealed isnt always pretty but its (almost) always real. You showed yourself to be a fine man. A fine human being. And those were some wise words.
Thank you ! ❤️
I lost my twin sister November 13, 2020. She passed from complications of covid. She was on a ventilator for over a month. I wish I could have been by her side to scare the monsters away. This is a beautiful song.
Now _that_ breaks my heart. I was lucky enough to be able to be at my fathers side (pre-covid) and to be there when he passed. My heart goes out to you and your family.
This song gets to me because it is about the kind of relationship that I wish that I could have had with my father. My father experienced a lot of childhood trauma that was his monster. He never beat his demons, so he beat us instead and passed down that childhood trauma to me and my siblings. I got in trouble and almost lost my kids because I didn't know how to not pass that trauma down on to them. I was able to get the help that I needed and, now, it's my turn to chase the monsters away...
I’ve watched countless react to this. Each had a story and understood the feeling of lost. Bless you .
The pure vulnerability James showcased in this song and video is extremely powerful
Raw and honest reaction tyvm. How James Blunt made it through this Video is unbelieveable. Watch his body language. He put all his strengh into his body. Doing this for his Dad. Respect Man.
His emotion, his face... before you even paused for the first time I was already choked up. My god....
One of the best reactions to this song on youtube. You knew right away , what James was telling us about. Empathy and connection is what you allowed us all to experience. Thank you. By the way , when this was recorded they had run out of time and had no match . ( his dad had donated a kidney years ago ) This video was what a distant relative saw and turned out to be a match/donor, also named Charles, I believe.
First time I heard this one. My Dad passed away in '91, my Mom in 2008. I was with each of them when they dtew their last breath. This song hits hard.
Wow 💜
Love ur parents and enjoy every minute with them, we’ll never get those chances after and we’re gonna regret it so, so, so much guys. Hearing this song - I feel still like a little girl who never had a father/love, protection from daddy but always loved him and still hurts…❤
This song gets me every time. 😭
I've lost my oldest sister, my only brother , my mom and just recently my dad. Yes it's very difficult. I just love your reactions. I can't imagine how it feels to lose a parent at a young age as you did.
My father is my Hero. He passed from cancer in 2016. This video breaks me down to tears every time. RIP DAD. 🙏
What makes this so very powerful is that both James and his father come from the best traditions of the British armed services, the full "stiff upper lip". James served as a British Army Captain in the Kosovo Intervention. (And may have stopped World War III by preventing a rather too gung-ho American general from attacking the Russians at an airport.)
Although I'm a leftie, I have a soft spot for the old-fashioned British aristocracy. They realise that high position gives responsibilities as well as privilege, and a surprising number still serve in our armed forces. James's family is actually spelt 'Blount' - same pronunciation - and I think they've fought for our country since at least the 1300s!
Thanks for your reaction to a difficult song-- this one makes me cry hard but it is such a great song. I lost my dad suddenly when I was very young and never felt that I had a chance to say goodbye. So glad James Blunt's dad was able to get a kidney and he has more time with his dad now.
💙💙
James Blunt has this amazing ability to punch you in the heart with his songs. Another one I can recommend is 'Carry You Home' - again, based on a real-life experience while he was serving in the army.
James Blunt one of the most underrated singers period. Lost my dad to cancer September of 2020 this song just breaks me. Sorry for your loss great reaction man new to channel keep up the good work
Sorry about your pops!
I lost both of my parents by the age of 10. My mother when I was 1 year old and my dad when I was 10. This is very powerful and yet beautiful.
This song hits me like an angelically beautiful freight train. I lost my dad when I was 9 and never fully got to say goodbye to him. This song stopped me in my tracks and brings tears to my eyes every time I hear it. I honestly cannot think of any other song that has literally taken my whole body and send chills. Thank you for the Genuine reaction video and thank you James Blunt for such an emotionally heart string tugging song.
Thank you for your honest reaction! We are many who needs thus kind of reaction nowadays, just to show that we aren't alone witholding this kind of pain and the feeling of missing a person, albeit a father, a mother or an another kind of a rolemodel in our lives!
I think we as people who love to watch reactors, like to connect sometimes, & showing vulnerability with us, does that......thank you for being real & raw with us ❤❤❤
I DON'T KNOW HOW THIS SONG DOESN'T BRING YOU TO TEARS ! HE IS AMAZING
Thank you for the Privilege to get a ❤ from You ! He is Simply Amazing and he feels his Songs and that song is Completely Beyond Any other song ! Grabs your heart ❤ Thank you again
I lost my dad when I was 9. Your reaction was my reaction. Hits you right in the feels
I was BAWLING by your first pause.
You just introduced me to this song, and wow! Crying. Life is so exquisitely bittersweet.
My father moved in with me in 2002. In march of 2009 he found out he had colon cancer and that it had moved into his spinal cord, several other organs and more than likely his brain. He started chemotherapy and another treatment. My great aunt was driving him to his appointments with other family. Around June 15 I took FMLA because he was going down hill. He was admitted but after a week he wanted to come back home at least for a little while. I was his power of attorney so his doctors said it was up to me but it was not going to be easy. I brought him home for a little over a week. We had planted 2 acres of purple hull peas, pintos, butter beans, corn, potatoes and corn earlier in the year so I was able to drive him around and show him our greatest garden we ever had. After I took him back the had to put him in a coma around July 23rd. He just had so much pain. I took the night shift from the first moment when he went to the hospital the first time and his brothers and sisters would take the day shift. I would show up at 3 so I could visit with the doctors. On August first he woke up at 1:30am, I had been holding his hand and he opened his eyes and smiled at me. He had no pain. I was all teary eyed and told him I loved him. It seemed like it lasted 4 or 5 minutes but I don’t know. I was there at night to scare his monsters away, he wouldn’t know where he was at and he wouldn’t remember he had the morphine button he could push and I would always get the nurse to give him an injection as well. I miss my father and this video so much reminds me of those 6 weeks.
Beautiful reaction. Such a heartbreaking experience. That´s the purpose and power of music. To reach us on so many levels.
My kids lost his dad 5 years ago. I´m going to play this beautiful song when we get to visit him . It is a great tribute to all dads
I heard this song for the first time in October. What an amazing song/video. Impossible to not cry and thinking about the ones we have lost. My father and others. I like your reactions and hoping for a lot more ABBA-reactions in the future. At last. James Blunt +++++
I lost my dad when I was 20. It was 2 days after Thanksgiving so this time of year gets rough. I'm not very familiar with James Blunt either but this was beautiful.
My Dad died 12 years ago today. He was my Dad, my best friend, best man at my wedding, and I miss him. This song wrecks me every time.
La voz de James Blunt es de las más conmovedoras que he oído en mi vida. Y esta canción, Dios mío, cómo no va a conmover hasta las lágrimas, todos somos hijos de alguien, algunos tienen la suerte de conservar a su padre, por desgracia no es mi caso. Perdí a mi padre hace 10 años tras una larga enfermedad y después de tanto tiempo, cuando escuché esta canción por primera vez, comencé a llorar como un río y lo hago cada vez que la escucho de nuevo. Fantástica canción y fantástico James Blunt.
Dang Travis, got me crying again. The lyrics are so beautiful. Your wisdom is beautiful too. ❤
There is nothing, I mean NOTHING that breaks your heart more than loosing someone that you love!
1st..! Definitely a fan of Blunt.....he's like Adele....his hits/songs are spaced far apart....but always HITS
..yeah this song Pulls Tears from you ...you dont have a choice....
i have no idea how he managed to get through singing this song at the time ,when he knew his dad had weeks left to live by some divine alignment due to the video ,hes dad got a kidney and survived it love james dad pat on his sons arm at the end ,stunning powerfull song
I'm a 48 year old with a still living healthy dad and this song wrecks me every time.
I held my mums hand for 3 weeks as she died in front of us. Died with a smile on her face. My son played this to me in the car last weekend and told me this is my funeral song. Cheers Ben 👍I’m only 52! 🤦♂️ Very good reaction 5 stars from me
Lost both of my parents in 2022 at the age of 30, while trying to graduate from university. I miss them both so much.
Certainly pulls at the heart strings #realmendocry, bless you mate from Australia 🇦🇺, yeah it is his Dad
It's a pity that you interrupted the video, but sometimes feelings need time and explanation. What I found most remarkable was your reaction when you saw James' dad. That totally blew me away when I first saw it. I hope the two Bl(o)unt boys are still doing well, especially since dad has a new kidney. Thanks for sharing your emotions!
🧡. THIS IS A TOUGH ONE. James got through this extremely emotional performance to deliver his best.
The PAIN is TOO REAL!!!!
I’m just tuning in to your channel and I can tell you this is one of the most beautiful and heartfelt videos I’ve ever come across! I am totally 💯 crying like I do every time I hear it! ❤
OMG!! I can feel that this song is totally personal !! Wow! Made me cry!! Beautiful!!❤️
Beautiful song and great reaction, James certainly makes emotional, deep songs. You should check out his new song 'the girl that never was' official video, I think it came out just a few months ago. Thanks and have a blessed day!
Your reaction was honest, powerful and beautiful 🤍 I'm sorry to hear of your loss.
whoever doesnt cry at this is a fckng heartless robot
Thank you for this reaction. Just the pain in your voice an sincerity in ur emotions made this reaction one of my favorite ones.
Feel the hurt within you, this song hits me in a different way having to say goodbye to my wife of 25 yrs before her 50th birthday(Cancer), she was so worried to leave her 2 young boys and I had to tell her on her death bed that she could let go now and that I'd still be there for them " to chase their monsters away"
I aimed for my own birth mothers forgiveness for giving up, me, my twin and my brother. Even though she smashed me and my twin against a wall, punched in the face and burnt with an iron. I was 2lb as a baby and my twin was smaller. My mum couldn't cope, but took it out on us. My father is an absolute hero. He's been batteling muscular dystrophy for years, his 2 brothers died at 50 (the age your suppose to die with that disease) but my dad took no medication, he's the oldest man alive with that condition. Fuckin hero!!!!
Lost my dad to stage four heart failure and helped nurse him to the very end. This song's resonates on so many levels. James blunt does not get the recognition he so very much deserves.
Because of this song a distant family member came forward and was a perfect match, his dad got a kidney transplant so he had a much longer life.
Think this shows what kind of relationship he had with his dad
was a specialist nurse for Huntingtons Disease..worked soo hard to help with Advance Decisions..just to have children GPs challenge..sob
One of my favourite songs. Many, many tissues have been used over the past months.
It has been two years since my daddy passed with cancer. I didn’t get to say goodbye. He died holding a nurses hand. My worst regret. I used that I was just tired from appointments, the surgeries, every treatment! It was selfish. I promised to be by his side until the end and I broke that promise!
Thank you to appreciate James Blunt song. I only subscribe to people that can feel heartfelt down to earth feelings. thank you
I lost my mother last year and I am very glad that we have been very close for the past six months. It was difficult and painful, but we were able to say goodbye with great love and peace. Of course, this experience makes me feel this song in a completely different way. That goes pretty deep.
Mom's last words to me were that she loves me and that she apologizes for not being able to say anything comforting. I told her she was a great mom and I was all grown up now and she didn't have to worry about me. She may go in peace. I will never forget Mother's smile at my words.
So sorry for your loss, we lost our beloved mom 1year ago. Yes, it is very painful, every minute of everyday. But we know mom, is in heaven, with all of the dearly departed. They tell me time will heal my heartache. RIP - MOM, LOVE YOU.
There's your beautiful heart again ♥
I cry every time I here this lost my dad 1 year ago it’s hard 😢🏴👍🏻

Watching this reaction again today because it’s simply lovely. Life is so short. Much love and respect from Scotland 🏴
James was crying and the crew was crying and his dad sat there going what’s going on , James’s dad very regimental and so didn’t find it sad .
Thanks for sharing, great real reaction
Travis...my husband just lost his Dad on the 4th and they buried him yesterday. They had been at odds for over 5 years and had only reconciled one week before he passed. He thanks God for those few days they had together. Thank you for reacting to this.
Wow ! So sorry about your loss ! Thank god they came together on those last days. 🙏🏼
Dear Man…You did Soooo well….Loved your sweet reaction…👍
I cry everytime I hear this song my dad passed away in 1988 when I was 6 months pregnant with my first son so he never got to see my son. This is a powerful song.
