I´m really schnubbisch about Beethoven and I still agree, he would. He would, even if it was him alone in a big crowd of whatever plastic fans or people believing in "calmdown relax classical music" or people thinking, a woman shouln´t sing these words and like this.

Hi Ms Hawkins, I’m a Social Worker, who worked with the Sex Worker community, on Assertive Outreach, in Liverpool. Our Team were the best and our one doctor, who gave a damn and the Police who worked very hard to safeguard and protect these women and, at times, their young daughters, who had also been introduced into the Life, were all an honour and privilege to work with. This song and your interpretation brought me to tears, floods of them. The innocence at the beginning and the exhaustion at the end was done with so much raw emotion, compassion and resignation. My compliments to your Accompaniment - the arrangement was so simple and elegant allowing your power to reach the summit. You did these women/girls proud and conveyed a difficult story. May the God of your understanding, bless you and keep you xx

Such a heart felt song, being an EX addict myself, it resonates a lot of truth, to how I felt going through it...Mistakes were made along the way, and I found myself lying on the floor more than once...Thankfully I am through that period now. Unfortunately I fked a lot of good relationships up over it, (Meaning friends, family, and significant others, over in the process, of finding myself again.) It is a constant struggle to get through, but if you believe in yourself, greatness will come. Believe and keep hope in the darkest recess's of your core. Thank you Kaz for singing this song, For all of you and all of me, Believe it can get better and easier as time passes by. Peace to you all, stay safe, stay healthy and just breathe, keep moving forward, time is short here on this wonderfully fked up planet we call home. I wish the best for all of you.

Who the hell is this woman and why have i not heard of her before?! Beautiful

I’m SO glad he made you well ❤2.Your song is a light for others to see which they can reach for and 3.

This song leaves me in tears every single time. I always feel like absolutely must listen to it over and over and over again every time I revisit it. So beautiful, painful, haunting, and victorious all at once.

Wow Kaz what a heavy story It remembers me of the death of my girlfriend.. Whole day lipgloss and ofcourse cocaine. Last year she died at the age of 47 You put your whole deep feeling in the song and proud of you to tell us your sad story You are a very strong woman!!! Respekt!!!

One of those songs I can only listen to once in awhile because of how much it hurts my heart to hear.

The pianist is amazing. The singer breaks your heart. The lyrics tugs your heart.

Played it twice...3x...and just put it on a loop. As a struggling alcoholic, (2 months 10 days sober in 2020) this came home hard. Thank you for this amazing piece of light 😊

I've never been asked to walk a straight line or blow into a device, the choir's music sounds beautiful and the people around me smell nice! No one has thrown a punch at me for something stupid I've said. People get on their knees with me and pray with me instead. I still remember the bar stool and all it's misery, so I choose to sit in a church today, today my spirit is free. Amen

I think it's why some people can just stop a drug and others loose their soul to it. Who would voluntarily go back to living in hell after they believe that a pill, shot injection, can make it all hurt less... it takes so long for it to become clear you just trade one problem for another.... its nearly impossible.
