I have had some public singing experiences & a long time ago I decided to ask her if she'd be interested in doing karaoke. Without hesitation, she was completely enthralled. There were 3 songs we would ponder doing. "You Are My Sunshine" was 1 of them! It's an intensely personal song to me as we would sing in a bar & people would be extremely gracious & she loved it!

Very interesting and bittersweet! My interpretation has always been completely different and comes from a tired, selfless mom to her husband. As in "I havent been able to change/grow bc I made my life revolve around you and our family. But with time, Im getting bolder, the children are grown and Im not afraid to grow anymore". Now I wonder what it actually meant! lol its cool how one song can speak to so many people in so many different ways💓

"You Are My Sunshine" has a really special place in my heart. My grandma used to sing it to me and all the young children in my family. Everytime i hear it, it reminds me of the safe feeling of being a child in a family where people were going to try to protect you and take care of you. Another one is "Ho Hey" by The Lumineers. Specifically the verse "I belong with you, you belong with me You're my sweetheart I belong with you, you belong with me You're my sweet..." This is the song I always associate with my parents. They used to have this as their ringtones for eachother, so when my siblings and I would hear the phone ring with that tone, we would know exactly who it was. Just gives me that sweet nostalgia y'know?

"... and I'm sorry I left but it was for the best Though it never felt right..." 4th of July by sufjan stevens. When I first heard this song I couldn't stop crying and then I found out he wrote this after his mom died, and that lyric is his mom talking to him after dying. My mom died when I was twelve and listening to this song is just like feeling that my mom is talking to me again, and it brings me peace.

My first love, one of the last memories I have with her. She was singing ‘Sunrise’ by Norah Jones on my outdoor porch. She was never so comfortable to sing but she was just in the moment and it was so lovely that it caught me off guard. I remember the sunlight coloring her skin and hair. It’s not even a lyric but there’s a part Norah Jones sings “and I say oooo-ooo, ooo-ooo” haha but the way she sang it just warmed my soul and heart. The beauty of her voice was reflected in her outer beauty and it just felt like for a moment the universe was still. I was able to just witness her and her existence and when you love someone so much those moments just feel so movie-like, magical or something. There’s a bunch of songs that remind me of her but definitely that song and lyric associated with her. She had the most beautiful soul and it was an honor to witness in romantically. It’s such a gift when someone lets you see their soul. There are some people you will never see in that soft stillness. I am grateful for what we shared even though it didn’t last ❤ I can only pray & hope to fall in love again. To share those kind of moments makes life feel okay.

"I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend But I always thought that I'd see you again". Everytime I hear these lyrics I remember every loved one I've lost throughout my life. It breaks me every now and then.

Just burst into tears as I started the video because I found out today that my aunt and favorite person has uterine cancer. Oh Thoraya, how wonderfully seen and comforted your videos always make me feel.

That's why I hate when people say move on, the pain of the death of a loved one 💔 leaves a permanent void in one's soul😢, Y’all agree??

Aerosmith’s Dream On. “Sing with me, sing for the years, sing for the laughter sing for the tears, sing with me just for today , maybe tomorrow the good Lord will take you away.” I was 14 and my brother was 18 the summer this song came out. He played it over and over. By the fall he had passed away. Love you too Thoraya and what you’re doing for people.❤️🇨🇦

Thoraya! Please, please don't stop what you're doing. The world needs this! We need these real conversations and emotions. Your videos make the world seem like a less lonely place. We love you 💜

That lady at the end, that story, it amazes me. Crazy how you can love someone but want different things.

This Is Home by Cavetown will always remind me of my younger sibling. Every word feels like it was written about them. I especially resonate with "Are you tired of me yet?

Song lyrics get stuck inside my mind all the time, and there's no doubt that people can't easily erase the feeling of wondering if they still care about someone even though they're not in their lives anymore. It's very fascinating to hear their personal narratives. They touch people on a deeper level.

Phoebe bridgers Scott street gets me every time. It just reminds me of the pain of losing someone and growing up and not wanting to let go of the past it makes me not want to lose my family.

The older lady's story is beautiful .. the way she speaks of unconventional families .. "i didnt know if I wanted to fit in that slot .. but I did" it really opened my mind to how society boxes us in to one way of seeing, and it shaped the desires we have for ourselves, the doubts we have about ourselves and the things we feel guilty for and she difintely helped me let go a piece of guilt I held with that little piece of wisdom. Whoever you are, thank you!

I always find so much joy from your videos. Even the sad ones, in a strange way. They make me more introspective than I usually am comfortable being, which is a worthwhile thing.

Mine is Hostage by Billie Eilish: “I wanna be alone. Alone with you, does that make sense?” It makes me think of my boyfriend of 8 years because he’s my comfort human and the only person that I feel like I can be completely myself around. Being alone and being with him feels the same comfort wise but he makes me happy to be around also. ❤

I rarely cry , but the first one made me sob. I had an amazing aunt and I also lost her to cancer and a week ago I was re watching adventure time..

When you are happy you just vibe off to the music and the instrumental parts and might dance to the beat and the rhythm, but when you feel way more feelings and you are deeply thinking about stuff you pay way more attention to the lyrics and the meaning behind it. Music is such a healing power and the lyrics and the meaning behind it makes music even more of a beautiful therapeutical thing ❤

About 10 years ago I was absolutely obsessed with Beach House (still am to be honest), and I was about 10000km from my home, and woke up one morning, put on my headphones first thing while lying in bed, put on the song "Take Care" by Beach House, opened my emails, and saw an email that my sister passed away. Ever since then, this song brings intense feeling of sadness and vivid memories of my sister and how she always got me in trouble growing up. I love it so much, and I love her. A very very special song to me, which always makes me cry. But also makes me remember her face perfectly, every time

Black & White by Rainbow Kitten Surprise: “We’re all pretty when we die, prim & pitted black & white” it reminds me of my mom. She died on January 29, 2022 and being her oldest i had to take care of the cremation process and had to see her body.. every time i hear this song i picture my mom and how beautiful and peaceful she looked. Ill never forget that moment🥺💜

Mine would be "I can't make you love me if you don't " I carry that song in the deepest part of my heart. After 9 years (starting from 17yrs old) I realized it didn't matter if I bent over backwards to show him how much I loved him, he couldn't. I realized I deserved better at the age of 26. He would never love me.... ever. So I gave up that fight, because I refused to let him patronize me any longer.

The song from Lynyrd Skynyrd (simple man) reminds me of my son. When my son moved out right after high school, I didn't realize how much I was going to miss him. The song has always been since his child into his manhood. Simple man is one of my favorite songs but more personal. I've always told him to be a simple man in life and to choose something in life he loves to do and get paid. He became a welder and loved it. As moms, we always worry about our children. He always told me not to worry about him and that nothing bad was going to happen to him. He passed away @ 34 yrs old. He would of been 40 this coming May 2023. I still miss him every day and love to listen to our song Simple Man 🎶

Same but the cover one for me which is You are always on my mind by Jack Savoretti. Touches my soul in a very special way and reminds me of someone I truly love.

What a cool idea. For me personally alot of memories will be stored with music attached to it. I love music, it is like a center piece of my soul. The first song that came to my mind was "Roxanne" by Sting. And my best friend used to sing parts of it, whenever I was sad and he would crack me up with his performance. So it weren't the lyrics itself, but how he sang. "You don't have to put on the red light, ..." It's the high pitched part of this song and he wasn't a perfect singer. So he sang the lines and make a weird, funny little performance going along with it, just to make me laugh. Sadly, he passed away in his late twenties. Now every time, this song is being played or becomes stuck in my ear for the day, I feel, he is close by. And he still makes me laugh.

"Someone Like You" not cause of the lyrics or the song really. It was just a song that came out during an important time in my life where I was having to say goodbye to a lot of strong connections I made and realizing that my life would never be the same , for better and worse. I had to say goodbye to the entire life I built and this song came on and we all starting singing together. Choked up over, "Don't forget me," and I remember vowing to never forget just how important all those people were to me in that moment, even as I knew I would never see them again. 11 years later and I still feel that bittersweet sting every time I hear the song. As much as it hurts to not have any of them in my life, I'm forever grateful that I even had the chance to know them. The world truly is chaotic and the chances of us meeting and growing close were so slim, but it happened. We cared about each other, even if it was never meant to last. Our connection was real and the shortness of it doesn't change that. It's been so long that I likely couldn't remember all their names, but I will never forget how important they were to me and how real that was.

"You are my Sunshine, my only Sunshine" my grandma's nickname throughout her life was Sunshine. The song has always made me think of her, but i can hardly bear to hear it since she passed away last year in November. not long after my cat, i should add. we are a cat-loving family, and she probably loved them more than everyone I'll ever know. both she and my cat passed due to cancer only 2 months apart.

This is my new favorite video!! The idea to ask for a song is amazing 🥰❤️

"I know you love her but it's over mate, it doesn't matter put the phone away, it's never easy to walk away, let her go... It'll be alright" The song is not about her, but it's the only memory I have of her cos she shared this once. I remember her with this song. ❤️

A song that reminds of someone is "Stubborn love" by the Lumineers. It really reminds of those who I loved but couldn't tell them how I felt. The part that always gets me is "It's better to feel pain than nothing at all, the opposite of love's indifference"... The reason why I love that song is because I was finally able to tell a person that I loved her though I already knew it was an impossible relationship cus she's in a relationship already. The feeling of knowing the final outcome still hurts, but at the same time it's a relief cus I was finally able to express myself and say how I feel towards someone. The song helps me think that even if you are going to be rejected or not expecting the outcome you want, it's better than keeping those things to oneself... Such long comment though I wanted to express myself dear stranger. Wish you an excellent day and life💜

"I'll be sure to write your name in the sand where the waves can't wash it away" -August burns red Reminds me of my grandmother and how I don't want to allow me or anyone else to ever forget her

"I’ll Fight“ by Wilco always reminds me of my dad because he’d put it on a lot in my childhood but it also resembles his mindest he has for us (his children). It’s just a very beautiful song as well but he makes it all the more special

this is dope! pls do more of these!!

"If I could choose just one day, to live within my heart, It would surely be that Sunday, recalling how we started..."

"Getting through still has its cost" ... Hozier's Who We Are. It reminds me of myself and how people say "youre so strong because you have multiple sclerosis and went through an abusive relationship." What they have no idea of is that while "I got through" difficult times, I still struggle and do not trust to hope

“It’s hard to know what she’d say but I think she’d want you to live like the world’s on fire, want you to love like hearts don’t break; never look down when you walk the wire.” - Birthday Cake by Dylan Conrique. My grandmother passed from cancer earlier this year and I found this song and it reminded me of her. She was a second mother to me in a sense and these lyrics are a lot like something she would say. She was a very kind and wise woman. ❤️

I've been binging these videos. Was nice meeting you in person btw

It's amazing how music can touch our hearts so much. I could relate many songs to many people, but one of them is "Si tot va bé” (in Catalan: ‘If everything goes fine’) and it reminds me a friend of mine, who showed me that song a few years ago. Thank you for your videos, Thoraya. I hope to meet you one day. Hi from Spain :)

Mine is a song by Simon and Garfunkel called Like a Bridge Over Troubled Water. My dad sat me down and played it for me when I was 13. We had gotten into a fight, can’t even remember about what now. The lyrics say “like a bridge over troubled water, I will lay me down”. I completely identified with the girl whose grandmother has dementia, because my dad is currently losing his battle with Lewy body dementia. It’s a song that will remind me of him for the rest of my life. I miss him so much. I’m now his bridge, just like he was mine. I took care of him for as long as I could until he needed full time care. Most times I wish for $, it’s not for myself. It’s so that I can have the means to bring him home for the end. Love you, dad, always.

Beautiful ❤

Awesome video❤

The song for me would definitely have to be "I'm getting ready" by Tasha cobbs. So my mom died 4 years ago but a month or two before she died this song came out and I was a huge fan of it. The particular lyric that definitely reminds me of my mom is "I'm getting ready to see something I've never seen". When she died I know she saw something incredible.❤️❤️
