    A massive shout out to The Waltham Forest Choir, and TM for this one. Well done everyone, and is also for a good cause which i personally know a lot about. Mental health, depression, anxiety, Bi polar, the lot. We need to raise awareness, and help everyone who suffers, and this is a step in the right direction. Well done people. BH x

      Forgive me my poor English. My grandfather told me a story when I was very young : Once a wise one put his head in a well... He was born, lived an entire life and passed away. The wise rose his head from the well, maybe this video's time had passed by. The moment ye'll be reunited, on the River Jordan's bank, I'll make sure to be in the distance. God may bless ye both.

    I found this version by accident but what a version, well done to all who made it possible. Being from Walthamstow myself hearing music from East17 always brings back good memories and respect for bad ones, This song (Original Version) helped me through a very dark time in my life and will always be the song that live rent free in my mind. Its a Shame the band don't work through the issues they have even just to bring some positivity into todays climate, but who knows , Just wanted to comment its a beautiful version of an already great song, well done WFYC!

    Such a good version of this beautiful song. Suicide is devastating and being closely affected by it I would have liked to see this get No.1. I felt it would have had a good chance had it been promoted more. Tony Mortimer is definitely an under rated song writer. He has written some great songs but this is the best. I only just discovered the meaning behind it and it makes it even more beautiful but its hard to listen to.
