I love seeing the comments you make, they give us more understanding into this brilliant artist. Please continue, they mean a lot to me and so many others.

This is what David had to tell about the song: "Having lived in an apartment on the edge of Mount Pleasant Cemetery in Toronto, I had developed a fondness for it from seeing it in the distance on a regular basis and also from a few visits inside the gates. There had come a period of time when I had been doing some soul searching of sorts and had made a habit of going jogging in the cemetery after work as a form of therapy. It was June, it was hot, the cemetery was beautiful and its beauty crushed me every time because everything hot and beautiful only reminded me of her, even more. It was during this cemetery jogging therapy that I realized that my old self no longer had a future. Upon that conclusion, I felt as though my previous self had been buried there and my new self would need to be reinvented somewhere else. The old me had to die so the new me could eventually, someday, maybe, actually thrive, again. "

@SupremeLordEnki

Ratcliff The truth is i don't think theres any irony, but that he knew soon or later he would be the next one, He wrote songs about people who lived or surrounded him that died or passed away in tragic deaths. His friends from childhood or people he met as an adult and drastically had a shit outcome as a stupid death out of nothing. In a sense he was basically death, Who ever he hanged out with, would turn out dead soon or later and that his time would come soon aswell, And it did, You might find my next words hilarious and stupid but this dude could have been a real saint and he him and we all interpreted someone who just writes music about deaths.. even tho as an atheist, some of us who walk the earth seem to have a true unique religious path in their way that was set for him or any of us to have our entire life.

Ever since I discovered Woods 5 a year ago they have rocketed to my top favorite bands. The legend of David Gold continues to grow and he will not be forgotten. Though sad, his words are a comfort to those of us going through hard times. Only those who are sad will understand how relating to David’s sadness actually helps us feel seen and understood and thus a little better. David sharing his darkness is actually a light to so many, and over time more people will discover his genius. He gave so much more in a short time than most do in their longer times. We celebrate him and love him.

I needed this so bad. Just came across this song , I'm fucking blown away and the harmony that is these guys and David's words basically just saved my life from doing something real stupid. This band had the ability to help one process the pain and hurt of life. Not many bands can come close to that.

I discovered Woods of Ypres just a few days ago. The band grabbed my attention because of “Ypres” in their name, which is a town 30 minutes from where i live. Thought it was a Belgian band at first. My god, how this band got to me. Feelings boiling up from everywhere when listening to them. Luckily cd’s are still quit obtainable so 2 of them are on their way to Belgium. 🤘 Keeping Gold’s spirit alive.

I discovered this band on october 2023. After many days of listening on Spotify i thought to search on Internet about them, and it was the horrible surprise when i found that they no longer exist since 2011.

I've been listening to your son's band songs for almost 10 years and I'm terribly saddened that I didn't catch any of his concerts or posts on social networks. Imitating him, I started playing the guitar. His songs helped to get through the deaths of friends and parents. No matter how bad my mood is, I know that at any moment I can watch a video where he pulls a kitten from the ceiling and see a happy and smiling person I never knew. The contrast between the lyrics of his songs and the person that I see in the video helps me realize that tomorrow will be better than today, no matter what happens. Woods of Ypres has had a huge impact on my life, and if a person lives as long as he is remembered, then David Gold will live until I die, and longer.

@@consthanetinesergson623 thinking about you as you lovingly remember your parents and your friends. Thank you for your message to me. Oh those who knew David well , enjoyed his humour, his quick wit, his ability to do impersonations! You may have read, David had three university degrees, and was so self driven, to learn and do his best to reach excellence. His stage personality was to give the best show he could for his audience, then afterward, become David of many dimensions, adapting to those various life experiences, unplanned and planned ones. It comforts me to know you and so many others share how David did and still does inspire and motivate you , believe the mystery of the future can be exciting when we have hope of better days. I am glad you keep a bit of Davids spirit safe in your loving soul. Be open to his lyrics,” I am with you here, you are here with me.” Hug from your mama gold

This band brought me out of the doom I was in going through a divorce and my father passing in the same year .. awesome band

RIP David Gold. Absolutely love this band!

Discovered this band a few years ago. Heavy. This guy was truly Gold. RIP🤙🏾

David Gold's story needs to be heard by the whole world. He has been, and always will be, the single most influential musician in my life.

This music is like a cure. When you start toć worry about things that aren't importnant it reminds you that being yourself is the most importnant thing. The way you feel and see the world is special because it is yours. If someone isn't respecting you it is not your fault. Be good and be yourself. David was so special and never be forgotten.

My only hope is that, somewhere in the ether, he knows the magnitude of his music. May he rest in peace forever!

Still listening in 2023, will do until I find my own resting place. At least I'll have lived in times of amazing music like this.

Still one of the most touching sounds ever written. I get sad, it gives me the shivers but I still feel so much joy listening to woods of ypres. Haven't listened to them for some years but it still feels the same. Awesome music and like his mother said in some of her comments here, it feels like David's spirit lives on in his music.

Taken so early , the man will forever be one of the greatest to never reach the full potential . Hope this and all the music he left inspires the next generations

This still give me the strength I need in the darkest days. Thank you David, thank you.

Touches me every time..

The bridge of this song is incredibly beautiful, I cant say enough good things about the vocal delivery and I love the lyrics as well

2023 and watching this while it snows outside. All these years latter still hits home. Thanks

This song touches my soul. RIP David Gold

A few days ago I started listening to Woods of Ypres because of this clip. I was curious about the name of the song and now I learn that the singer died in an accident in 2011 and the band isn't playing anymore... Sad...

Woods Of Ypres for me is one of the best bands I've ever heard in my life. The last two albums "The Green Album" and "Grey Skies & Electric Light" albums were fantastic, I have no words to describe them. I was like you when I discovered that David Gold had died, sad to know that this talent in composition and voice died with him and that those songs may never be made the same way by someone else.

Yeah after looking it up, it appears he was from Toronto. About two hours from here.

The best creative music are the ones we discover by accident. This band is no exception. RIP David, truly gone way too soon.

the song becomes chilling when you find out that the singer is actually dead...

Talent lost but never forgotten. May it live on something to be remembered by.

This is genuinely one of the best songs ever written. A tragic loss of true talent, Rest in peace Ian A beautiful piece of music that will never be forgotten. We are grateful and we love you so so much. Always...

Dearest Cihad, I have often commented that I truly believe those just getting to know David and feeling a strong connection are finding David at the perfect time in their life. I read somewhere that when life seems to be going well we enjoy the music, and when life presents some challenges, we listen to the lyrics. I often when I hear sone song think, I was supposed to hear those words this moment. 1 want to believe , that there is another dimension after this life that we only know about. I am not in any hurry to get there. Until That time we all are responsible to seek balance in all our health dimensions !( physical, emotional, intellectual, social snd spiritual). I am comforted to know that David is in your heart and in your loving soul. ❤️😁☀️

I didn't discover Woods of Ypres until after David Fold passed. Since I've gobbled down all of their albums and fallen in love. Thanks for all the music and feelings! From June 2024

Woods of Ypres really influenced me when I was dealing with a difficult time in my life. Thanks, David Gold, Rest in Peace

To Esther Gold and the woods community. I know it’s ten days before David left this world but I feel now is the right time to post this comment. I discovered this band about late September of this year. And learned about this great band. And I would like to say David has help me and I can say this many in this community with mental problems or coping with loss or just the struggles of every day life when I ever have a bad day I will sit and listen to Woods of Ypres. David just knew what to say his words speak to many people not just that but I can now say this band is tied with my favorite band of all time. But we are not here to talk about that. I would like to thank Esther Gold on her still communicating with the community. And I can say that for all and finally I as I right this I’m listening to Grey sky’s and Electric light and listening to Davids words and he’s right when he said “We miss them now so much that they are gone. Took them for granted for living so long. We read words again and listen to them again as we start to understand what they where trying to say” now we all understand Rest In Peace David you will be missed.

When i first showed my dad this song a few years back he had me constantly playing it on repeat

You will forever be with us, David.

Where has this been all my life? Wonderful.

forever with you "Woods of Ypres"

rest in peace david, an effort of transmit doomness in a different way, the rest is history

This is one of my favorite songs. It makes me sad everytime I watch the music video. RIP David. Your voice was incredible and so was your beard.

Woods truly is a hidden masterpiece of a band. Nobody will ever sound like them, and nobody will ever be able to convey the emotion and power in David’s voice. Rock In Peace David, you’ll never be forgotten.

I met him at one of his concerts and he is super cool its sad he died he will be missed

Gives me shivers every time... for me there are only 3 bands in this world that came to the same level of perfection, depth and beauty in their craft - Paradise Lost, Type O Negative and Woods of Ypres, two are now gone, but their music stays 4 ever.

And Paradise Lost had a few less than stellar albums before they came back to the doom metal fold. Thankfully the last couple have been much less synthpop and more back on form. I do find that these three bands resonate with me. There's nothing else that helps me unwind better than music from one of them if I'm stressed, can't sleep or am having trouble focusing. I used to listen to Shades of God before job interviews, it always left me calm and at ease, ready to go. Edit: I'd have to give an honourable mention to Children of Bodom too. Not quite the same thing, but an excellent band nonetheless!

I remember listening to this band when they were not known that well. Woods of Ypres video's on youtube not even reaching 30K views and now 2.6 million views! I wished David was still wish us... It broke my heart when I saw heard he died :/

I didn't know this man was dead. The song took on an entirely different meaning whenever I found out. I can't stop listening to it. I started crying. My uncle hasn't got a gravestone. This world took everything from him and left him for dead and didn't even give him a gravestone. This song is kind of like a gravestone. It'll be far better than anything I'll ever get.
