Here I am in 2018, 25 years after its release, wondering if I’m the only person in the US at this moment singing this song out of the blue and scrambling to TH-cam to hear it once again
Weird how SO many years after this release, its message is EVERMORE clear in these days. We live in a sad world where people are GLUED to themselves and/or their devices
give me a fucking break. so you were suicidal and this song helped you . BS. Even music cant stop the suicidal. When you really want to do you cease listening to music. Take wisdom when you hear it. Stop spewing bs
@@tarawillis3995 Glad the random TH-cam psychologist cleared that right up... even more glad that we're all different & react differently. Most glad that spyyder976 stuck around :)
You're as tight as a hunter's trap Hidden well, what are you concealing Poker face, carved in stone Amongst friends, but all alone Why do you hide? Say something, say something, anything I've shown you everything Give me a sign Say something, say something, anything Your silence is deafening Give me a sign Take a drug to set you free Strange fruit from a forbidden tree You've got to come down soon More than a drug is what I need Need a change of scenery Need a new life Say something, say something, anything I've shown you everything Give me a sign Say something, say something, anything Your silence is deafening Give me a sign Say something, say something, anything I've shown you everything Give me a sign I'm open wide, open wondering Have you swallowed everything Pay me in kind
Literally been 15 years since the last time I listened to this song, idk why I remembered it today, I just started humming it out of nowhere and came here to listen to it.
My god! Why doesn't TH-cam recommend this like it does with all those overplayed songs?! It's so beautiful it gave me goosebumps the second it started.
Cuando has entregado todo, y de repente todo cambia, y no sabes que pasa porque todo es silencio, no puedes hacer nada, lo único que te queda es esta canción.
Sometimes being underrated makes the music that much better. And then to put it on for someone who has never even heard of James. Let alone the song and watch their reaction to it. Priceless
The uniqueness in James is based on the fact that they were meant to be one of the greatest bands ever. Tim Booth has an absolutely extraordinary voice which take you beyond the experience of being listening a simple melody. James is a gift to every human being on earth. Thanks JP for bringing me the best memory of my life, that is having James in my personal music collection. I will always love JAMES (The Band).
Geez, i have always loved this song. Last year around November 2020, i Reconnected to a men who is and will always be special too me. When we reconnected he will randomly send me this song to listen too. One morning after spending the night with him listening to him. I drove him to his car and we jammed out to this song. Everytime i listen to it he is in my mind. I miss you my J.
So when is this silly calendar thing going to stop? This has gone as bad as the Coronavirus. We are all listening this during this lockdown, a lot of people are here during this 2020 for obvious reasons! What's next: the "nobody..." comment or the "hold my beer" joke?
A better question is where are y’all from? I didn’t know any James fans growing up in Kansas. I had friends in the UK but they’re weren’t big into this band
Una canción que debes de dedicarte a ti mismo de vez en cuando. Nunca estás solo / A song you must dedicate to yourself once in a while. You are not alone.
When I think about how good this band were, yet they weren't massively on my radar at age 15 in 1993. Unfortunately for these guys and other mid 90s bands, Oasis came along and blew everyone out the water. Saying that, as an older person now, I can't stop listening to them. Great band.
Timeless, like all their songs....main stream at points but mostly under-rated in every way....Plus it reminds me off Edinburgh 1997 new year, wasted and lost!!! ha braw.....good times
I saw James circa '93 at Toad's Place, New Haven, Ct. Amazing! I still listen to this CD today which has some great songs on it. "Say Something" & "Laid" were both equally played & popular where I went to college. I love both songs, but this one's still my favorite to this day.
Saw them last year in Salt Lake City, They where not the main act, but to me they were. I only stayed to watch them, mainly because I was starting to get sick, but it was worth it. Currently this song sum up the state of my relationship with my son who is dealing with a lot of issue and depression since being out of high school and is trying to figure out his life.
Never really took too much notice of James back in the day but have recently started to give them a listen. It doesn't take long to like a track after only hearing it a couple of times.

Such an underrated & underplayed song. It’s amazing with such an important message.
My dad had many songs at his funeral.. But this one hits nail on head.. Suicide is terrible thing... Love u dad xx
I'm so sorry. 🫂. Blessings since Meco City
Brother nothing I can say can comfort you but his suffering is over, I hope you have good memories together
So many hits...yet still underrated
Bs. It was. Just 30 yrs ago
your comment is also so underrated like this masterpiece will said
So very true 🥰
Agree they where unfortunate to be out in the madchester era.. So many great bands at the time.. Great era for music tho
Not by those of us who "know" 😊

rygi23 you're not. that's exactly what i just did.
Me too
I am singing it few times but in Norway (Bergen)
I'm here with you..this song and vid "grips me to the core"..much love friend
you are not alone. missed my high school days.
Something about James always hits me dead center, deep in the pit of my stomach. Every time.
Here in 2024, Thank you James for such good memories!
Weird how SO many years after this release, its message is EVERMORE clear in these days. We live in a sad world where people are GLUED to themselves and/or their devices
A song actually saying something. How refreshing. While there are good songs out there, we could use more artistry like this today in music.
still LOVE this song and its ethereal sound! this album saved my life many times when I was downtrodden and having dire thoughts...
give me a fucking break. so you were suicidal and this song helped you . BS. Even music cant stop the suicidal. When you really want to do you cease listening to music. Take wisdom when you hear it. Stop spewing bs
Albums are great at helping escape . Glad youre well now and can reflect . Peace

@spyyder976. I know the feeling 🤗
You're as tight as a hunter's trap
Hidden well, what are you concealing
Poker face, carved in stone
Amongst friends, but all alone
Why do you hide?
Say something, say something, anything
I've shown you everything
Give me a sign
Say something, say something, anything
Your silence is deafening
Give me a sign
Take a drug to set you free
Strange fruit from a forbidden tree
You've got to come down soon
More than a drug is what I need
Need a change of scenery
Need a new life
Say something, say something, anything
I've shown you everything
Give me a sign
Say something, say something, anything
Your silence is deafening
Give me a sign
Say something, say something, anything
I've shown you everything
Give me a sign
I'm open wide, open wondering
Have you swallowed everything
Pay me in kind

Brilliant loved James since I first heard Sit Down back in 90/91. Such happy days ❤️❤️
What a Classic of late 90s. I was teenager. I miss those days when I listen to this song.
mid 90's Mate
I don't know about you guys but everytime i listen to this song i feel like my heart is rip out of my chest...
Thought I was the only one....
Same as

one of the best songs ever written.....i can never just listen to it once, have to replay half a dozen times before i move onto another song.
gran banda de los 90s, gran canción nostálgica y hermosa , amo esta banda
how amazing has his voice been for years !! really want some of James
Kathy BD
Get some, Kathy!
Here I am...will never forget this song...August 2024...south El Monte California
If I had to hear only one album for the rest of my life,this is it (laid)
This song just sums up my life, loved it since I was a child, still sounds as good as I approach middle age, most underrated band. Fucking love um 🎶💖👌
Sometimes being underrated makes the music that much better. And then to put it on for someone who has never even heard of James. Let alone the song and watch their reaction to it. Priceless
I m still listening this song all this years and i still love it and feels like the first time..
The uniqueness in James is based on the fact that they were meant to be one of the greatest bands ever.

😔😔😔😔a se años escuché esa canción en un estereo Alpine un coche antiguo y casa abandonada y asta penas la volví a escuchar
Un clásico! Nov 2019 México 👍🎼😍
esta cancion es tan nostalgica , que solo lo puedo ver una ves al dia
mellisa esteves sii 😢
Recuerdo cuando Vinieron a LA CIUDAD DE MEXICO al AUDITORIO NACIONAL fui con mis 3 hermanos grandes Estuvo genial cuantos recuerdos los amooo! 💖
Always have loved this song. Bought the album when it first came out. But now it fully has meaning with my current situation.
Endless hours spent lost in music, breathtaking and exhilarating. Played on repeat so many times, entire Laid Album but this was my fav song.
Cuando eramos felices y no lo sabiamos qué épocas!!
2022 and this song still resonates. The emotion and the message never gets old.
Reminds me of the best times of my life with the most beautiful person who stole my heart ❤️❤️✨😌
My favorite song from 1993, so much reality in it
Letra, música, vídeo... Qué se puede decir de ella...
Simplemente preciosa.
Que buen tema, como extraño ir bailar!!! Blondie y Baleduc!!! Salu2 desde Chile, Maipu.
What a cool song, love that bass line.
buen tema y concuerdo con tigo
Aqui en 2024, van a pasar 100 años y estos éxitos se seguirán escuchando...❤
2020 in November the USA is in dire straits, this man's voice sets me free.
Manchester UK helping people all over they were a great band very underrated! Stay safe!
Tim is one of the great melodic songwriters, these records will last forever.
together with REM were the best indie bands from 1st half of the 90s. Got Goldmother, Seven and Laid very close to the heart.
Geez, i have always loved this song. Last year around November 2020, i Reconnected to a men who is and will always be special too me.

El tiempo vuela, hermosa canción, recordando esos maravillosos años de mi vida.
So many awesome bands came out of Manchester, UK in the 90s, and they all still sound incredible when you listen to them today... 👌
Wauuuuu. Que temazo. Inolvidable. Desde chorrillos lima peru
One of the great songs
the tune combined with the video just blow me away
Anyone listening to this in lockdown
I listen this song regularly.... safely in my personal alltimes top 10 songs
So when is this silly calendar thing going to stop? This has gone as bad as the Coronavirus. We are all listening this during this lockdown, a lot of people are here during this 2020 for obvious reasons!
What's next: the "nobody..." comment or the "hold my beer" joke?
I hate this comment and I hate the small minded people who make it.
A better question is where are y’all from? I didn’t know any James fans growing up in Kansas. I had friends in the UK but they’re weren’t big into this band
@@DaveSwayer I know, right.. but just couldn't help myself

The 90s all over again, love it 🩶

Recuerdo mis noches de nostalgia en Bauhaus o sino en Nébula...linda época.
Still here at 50 , means more now had them years to think about it , great tune
This song is my first time in love.
esta rola me encanta, de aquellos tiempos cuando el MTV valia la pena :s

Rica canción.
Beautiful, so beautiful. Thanks, James. et all. x
This song never gets old. Love it.
Absolutely, their best song.

operator elevator
Although great, it's no "Sometimes."
beautiful
Its one of those songs u didn’t think nothing of back when it came but the chorus is in graved in ur head.
Massive tune in 2022 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Damn I love this band.
Saw them last year in Salt Lake City, They where not the main act, but to me they were. I only stayed to watch them, mainly because I was starting to get sick, but it was worth it.

so so good

Still solid after all these years
estoy escuchando mas de este grupo y la verdad, tiene excelentes canciones (y)
I heard it for the first time in 1999. I miss those days. I had turned 20. It was a beautiful time
Temazo, saludos desde León México
cielos extrañe los 90, q linda cancion.....di algo.....en vida
James grandes musicos.
*"take a drug to set you free* /
*strange fruit from a forbidden tree"* 🎶
Recuerdo mucho mi adolescencia fabulosa banda
que recuerdos con esta cancion con mi wakman caminando hasta el colegio escuchando Radio concierto 88.5 solo grandes canciones
Simplemente una canción perfecta...
Something about the band and their music reminds me of U2. It would also sound awesome in Bono´s voice.
I lost a friend due to depression ,,,,, I wish these lyrics could of helped him cos I always wish it x
I'm here march 2024
I prob have more James tracks than any other band on my I Tunes. I never tire of them
I am a fan of U2 but in 1992 James ranked 1st among my favorite bands.
Never really took too much notice of James back in the day but have recently started to give them a listen. It doesn't take long to like a track after only hearing it a couple of times.
