The most powerful men and women in the world are the ones who destroy your facades, make you cry, make you crumble, reduce you to the purity you were born with. For that moment, all pretences vanish and if you hold onto that moment you are born again.

Regardless of whether the genre is for you, it's truly one of the best written love songs ever, personally speaking.

I found this song when my daughter died. Her life companion sent it to me. It was his song for her. She was 41 and fought her heart disease until she was too tired to fight anymore. ❤

This song is about a girl Blunt dated, but he wrote it years after the relationship ended. When he appeared on the UK show Songbook, Blunt explained: "I guess it's a realization that you'll never be with someone, but the frustration that they are still alive and out there in the world. It can be an incredibly painful idea - I sat with the song for quite a long time. But for me, it's probably my most personal song. Whereas 'You're Beautiful' is about a moment, one second in time of passing that person, the song 'Goodbye My Lover' is about a lifetime's worth of emotion, the fact that that relationship is over, and that life continues. And yeah, it's the most personal song on Back To Bedlam."

It's like watching someones heart break over and over every time he sings this

I always said to my wife: honey, when i'm dead, please play this song on my furneral. In 2008, i was very sick (hydrocaephelis) and in the hospital i was ready for my final operation. My wife was waiting in the reataurant of the hospital. The chance of surviving the operation was 20%......after a hour, she heard this song in the restaurant. Then she thought that it was a sign, he's dead. He didn't survive the operation. But i did......and every time i hear this song, i'm crying. Sometimes hard and sometimes only tears. But wow, it's so beautiful.

it penetrates my cells. I cry every time I listen. It's a beyond perfect song.

I spent a night at Heathrow looping on this song, contemplating the fall behind the rail at the departures of terminal 5 and thinking if I should just take the step. Eventually I didn't do it... there. But I survived and she came back. Few years have passed but this song has always the power of taking me back to that moment and it allows me to conserve those feelings. I do not care how bad they are, they are a part of me.

This man is reaching so deep inside to a point of such honesty. I don't see this type of connection with a lot of musicians.

best singer ive ever heard , voice is amazing.

My favourite male singer of all time.. Cheers from Sarawak,Malaysia..

The Brits produce so much musical genius and talent, it is mind boggling and I don't understand why they have not really embraced James Blunt...? An Irish Bog man here....

Totally agree with all of you, going through a similar situation and every word in this song is down right how I feel and it does hurt, plus the piano melody is just beautiful and sad at the same time. I had never heard this song until last night and man it had me in tears. As sad a song as this is it is on the top of my favorite songs now. By the way this performance is amazing as well, he truly is a great artist.

The pure emotion is unmatched

Probably one of the best songs written of all time. Brilliantly conceived, people can relate to it... And, he performs it amazingly and convincingly EVERY time. Massively underrated and brilliant artist in every sense of the word.

Never seen so much emotion in a singing performance

My husband died the 16th of march this year...this song was played at his funeral a week ago...😥😥 I miss him so much

I have just lost my husband after 35 years. My heart is truly broken and I feel as if someone has ripped my arm off and I will never be the same! I know nothing about James Blunt but this song perfectly captured how I feel and is incredibly emotive and heart breaking. When he sings ‘you have been the one for me’ I just break down. Thank James for an amazing song and a wonderful vocal performance. This song for me is a bit like Sia’s Chandelier - if they had never recorded anything else then they are both total geniuses and great performers. I am so hollow baby!

I will always envy the ones sitting there in that hall witnessing one of the best live performances ever. That performance filled my heart and gave me goosebumps even while watching it on KZread, I can't imagine the emotional aura it must have had in that hall...the audience really did take a part of James back home that day!

He is so emotional, always He performs this Song. Almost crying, that Song is his therapay and Nemesis at the same time. And that's what makes it so beautiful

From 2:10 till 2:22 it looks like he about to break and start crying... so beautiful and with so much passion sung... one of the most underrated artists in the world.

I’ve seen many many many live performances, and I still always go back to this one. I think this is hands down the best rendition of a song I’ve ever seen. It also ties into my life I’ve lost my lover/ soulmate/ best friend. All through my own faults. And this song sends emotions through me like no song ever has. 90% of the words relate to me and my former partner. And this live version is the best one. If only I could turn back time and change the things that went wrong and made her fall out of love with me but that’s not possible. So I’ll live forever more knowing it could have been, should have been and possibly wouldn’t have been different but wasn’t because of me. The price you pay.

Geez.... Pure talent... No effects... No auto tune... Just pure listening pleasure. I can appreciate a artist like this
