    RIP Jason, you were so talented and I hate you had to leave this world at such a young age. But we were so privileged to be touched by your voice and talent.

    As a teenager I had these horrible intrusive thoughts and had horrible fear and depression and I was worried it would never end and listening to this song linked with it but as an adult know I rely on 'I know that the night must end, and that that sun will rise'. This is why I love this musical, it taught me to be strong within despite my inner struggles.

      I remember hearing that Jason wanted to come out as bi to his dad, but his dad wasn’t comfortable with that idea. This inner struggle eventually led to him taking his own life in 2004. Jason lost his mom as a toddler and had a strained relationship with his father. I guess that pain bled through in every performance of “Endless Night”, as it is a song about a son longing for a connection with his estranged father.

    Where has the starlight gone?

    How can I find my way home?
    Home is an empty dream
    Lost to the night
    Father, I feel so alone
    You promised you'd be there
    Whenever I needed you
    Whenever I call your name
    You're not anywhere
    I'm trying to hold on
    Just waiting to hear your voice
    One word, just a word will do
    To end this nightmare
    When will the dawning break
    Oh endless night
    Sleepless I dream of the day
    When you were by my side
    Guiding my path
    Father, I can't find the way
    You promised you'd be there
    Whenever I needed you
    Whenever I call your name
    You're not anywhere
    I'm trying to hold on
    Just waiting to hear your voice
    One word, just a word will do
    To end this nightmare

    And that the sun will rise
    And that the sun will rise

    • @otomodachifan
      @otomodachifan Před 9 lety +5

      I feel exactly the same. My father died a few months ago in a tragic fire. His dog passed away and barely anything was salvageable. I saw little of him, as he was emotionally disturbed. This song makes me cry. I listened to a bootleg of this song, which was from an autism-friendly performance of this show, which I attended before my father passed away (I'm on the spectrum so I benefit from the relaxed environment), and listening back to this song I heard some wailing kids in the background another faintly heard shouting "I did it, Dad!" repeatedly. Breaks my heart. Even hearing the song without the background noise upsets me.

    I saw this on Broadway back in 2017 and I’m going again in a little over a week. It broke me down then and I know itll happen again. Just a beautiful and timeless production

    I've seen the musical for the very first time just yesterday, in Edinburgh. I didn't listen to the original soundtrack of the show so I'd be surprised with the new songs and this one in particular just captured my heart, staying with me for the whole time. I love it and it was sung beautifully, both in the show and here on the recording. This musical is an awesome experience and it touches your heart ❤️

      "Its Quiet Uptown" from Hamilton is a good as well, but definitely a sad mix. They showcase a father coping with the sudden loss of his son and son coping with the sudden loss of his father.

    I can honestly say that I can feel the emotional pain that Simba feels in this number. I was distraught when I came damn close to losing my father to COVID-19. I choke up and cry hearing this song and thinking about that month from hell and how I almost lost my Mufasa.

    My dad isn't dead, but he isn't a good person. I still cry when listening to this because even if my dad is here physically, he's not there for me and doesn't support me. I relate to this struggle of trying to look to a father figure for support and the right support isn't there.
