@@Thirdeye112 For the same reason I have heard it hundreds of times and still get sad. Past hurt. Edit: If you have good headphones listen to his breathing around 2:09-2:50, honestly does sound like he's fighting back emotions. Idk if that's a breathing technique for singers but that is exactly how people about to cry breathe in.
This song expresses every emotion I felt when my darling wife died. It was played at her funeral and it remains in my heart everytime I hear it even after a dozen years. Some ignorant people mock James, but for many his music touches the raw emotions that everyone will one day experience.

I lost my daughter last month. She was 18 months old. I listened to this song with her before she left. She had the most beautiful blue eyes and smile. I can still hear her laugh as I danced around the room with her. I don’t know at this point how I can carry on without my angel. I had her later in life at 41 and I didn’t realise I had never really loved anybody before her. Daddy will see you soon my beautiful baby.

Let’s be honest…we all picture one person in our minds when he sings this song. It doesn’t matter have much time passes, the memories are still there. However, I will tell you there is light at the end of the tunnel. In the case of a past relationship, know that they were not your person and they were only meant for a season. Your person is out there, go find them.

@@GlennMarshallnz I'd just like to mention that just because someone is filming something like this, it doesn't always mean that they're doing it just so it can be uploaded, but instead, it might be so they can look back at it in the future. I understand the importance of enjoying a moment at the time, but I think it's important to consider that maybe this song means so much to those younger people, that they would like a video so they can treasure it forever. I like to take videos when watching live music, not the entire time, because I do value the moment of being there, but it's nice to be able to look back at it years later when maybe the memory is a bit blurred, and you can experience it all over again.

The emotion he puts into his songs must physically drain him. So powerful!
I've always casually enjoyed this song. But what a performance! He is so captivating and pulls you along every step of the moment. It is interesting, and quite beautiful to watch the audience at the beginning, finding their seats, restless, grabbing their phones, chatting amongst themselves, and at the end everyone is still, silent and mesmerised. This performance, along with his twitter account make me love him more.

Lots of time. But each new day makes our pain subside a bit. 43 years have now passed in my case. My surviving twin daughter is 45 years old now and her older sister just turned 50. And somehow I am gladdened that I have been there all this time for them and for my beautiful wife. Amen

Lyrics: Did I disappoint you or let you down? Should I be feeling guilty or let the judges frown? 'Cause I saw the end, before we'd begun Yes, I saw you were blind and I knew I had won So I took what's mine by eternal right Took your soul out into the night It may be over but it won't stop there I am here for you if you'd only care You touched my heart, you touched my soul Changed my life and all my goals And love is blind, and that I knew when My heart was blinded by you I've touched your lips and held your head Shared your dreams and shared your bed I know you well, I know your smell I've been addicted to you Goodbye my lover Goodbye my friend You have been the one You have been the one for me Goodbye my lover Goodbye my friend You have been the one You have been the one for me I am a dreamer and when I wake You can't break my spirit, it's my dreams you take And as you move on, remember me Remember us and all we used to be I've seen you cry, I've seen you smile I've watched you sleeping for a while I'd be the father of your child I'd spend a lifetime with you I know your fears and you know mine We've had our doubts but now we're fine And I love you, I swear that's true I cannot live without you Goodbye my lover Goodbye my friend You have been the one You have been the one for me Goodbye my lover Goodbye my friend You have been the one You have been the one for me And I still hold your hand in mine In mine when I'm asleep And I will bear my soul in time When I'm kneeling at your feet Goodbye my lover Goodbye my friend You have been the one You have been the one for me Goodbye my lover Goodbye my friend You have been the one You have been the one for me I'm so hollow, baby, I'm so hollow I'm so, I'm so, I'm so hollow I'm so hollow, baby, I'm so hollow I'm so, I'm so, I'm so hollow

My heart can't handle the emotion in his voice and my eyes can barely hold my tears from falling down my cheeks. This song never ever leaves my eyes dry. This is my favorite version of Goodbye my lover and I always seem to trail back to it at random times. The song is beautiful on its own and James' performance of this song only adds to it.
So much pain and emotion. A true performer.

This meant soooo much to me, after recently losing my husband of 64 years

James, you're a gift given from God to us. What a voice, what a talent. God bless you even more!
James is a brave, brave man. Singing this song despite the emotions boiling inside of him… that’s bravery!
Whether u admit it or it's just something private a thing u regret letting go this song hits on so many different notes . An exceptional songwriter and talent
So touching.❤️ This morning I was listening to this song in the car, and I was crying 💗 Beautiful!!!!
man u just made me feel so.... no words to express these feeling fighting me inside memories , broken heart losing the one .Thank you for giving us this song ABSOLUTELY STUNNING!
this is just poetry, beauty and reality so eloquentlky combined... genuinely in awe of the brilliance of this artist...
So beautiful, so haunting... so much this man gives. Thank you James! Your voice is a presence on this earth that is unmatched. You touch everyone's soul❤
James this song hits deep down the last nerve. With this song there is no a person who says " I m not emotional " it will be a lie
This song is deep! It can be felt from his singing! He’s singing his heart out ❤️
i mean, oh my god, his heart and soul hurts while singing. such a powerful performance .shivers down the spine
I've never witnessed a musician sing a song and mean and feel every line of it. He isn't trying to convince us or expressing/portraying a fake emotion. I've heard this song loads of times, and it's never meant anything to me, but after watching him perform it live I have a new found appreciation for James blunt as an artist. If you thought this was good, check out his live performance of this song on the voice Germany in 2021, it's breathtaking!!!

I think he write for someone because he was the captain of the military.
This is my favorite James blunt song it has been since I was a teenager. Me and my future wife would get super wasted and confess our love to each other but it would not last with our insecurities. 10 years later I married that woman ironically having the processional to bonfire hearts and our first dance to beautiful (preformed by a friend of ours with some lyrics changed to make it not sad as shit lol), and fast forward 10 more years and this song is painfully fitting. I'm alone, bawling my eyes out because these lyrics are never something I thought I would really understand. Mental illness has ripped her away from me and I don't want her to go. Thank you James for going where I couldn't and putting words down that hurt and leave you vulnerable.

I hope you’re ok stranger. Stay strong.
You know he' s a true artist when he sounds the same on live. Am a James Blunt fan since i was kid at the time i didn't understand what he was saying because i didn't know english. More than 20 years listening to him. Always on my playlist.
James is so good in delivering the message through his music…love love him, very unique!
Mans a genius. This song can provoke feeling from the pit of anyones heart. There is so much emotion in this performance, it's oustanding.
I really want this recording. It's his best version yet, so much emotion.
Ive always loved this song for the emotion that it invokes, however…..this is the most heart wrentching..ly beautiful rendition I’ve ever heard. I feel so grateful to see such emotion and remember every time the person I lost and how much I loved them when I hear this. Thank you for your gift Mr James Blunt

Hi . Sorry to hear of your loss . However I'm touched to know this song brings a special place in your heart 🌹🌹🌹🌹
Thank you Mr Blunt.. i can listen to it over und over again.. and it touches me every single time.. outstanding
This guy unapologetically puts it all out there....One of the most emotionally invested singers today.... Even in a college Q&A he sings his bloody arse off...
This performance is so touching. The expression in his eyes...
Stay with the one who respects and pays attention to you like those people do while James sings ❤️❤️ What lyrics and interpretation OMG!!, it shrive me 🌹🌹
My husband passed away last New Year’s Eve. This song speaks to my heart every time I hear it. Goodbye my lover. Goodbye my friend. You have been the one. You have been the one for me.
👏👏👏 The man sings in a magnificent manner.
