Guys, just a little background. James and his father were both officers in the British military. This was recorded as you see it. It was the first time James had actually sung this to his dad. His recording company wanted him to use 'Auto-Tune' but he refused because he wanted it to be real and full of genuine emotions because at the time, he thought his father was about die from Stage 4 kidney cancer, so you can understand his voice wavering a little towards the end. Honestly, I have no idea how he managed to get this done, but what a wonderful job he made of it. Great reactions you guys. Same as everyone else who watches this video for the first time!
So beautiful. I had no idea. Thank you so much for sharing this powerful story of love. ❤️
@@kathleenkarsten5739 They found a donor and apparently his dad is doing well now.
🤧
I also thank you
His dad received a kidney transplant and is doing well.
Your Grandpa and your Dad would be so proud of how loving and caring you both are.✌❤
They are absolutely wonderful.
Amen 💯💯💯🙏
Stop...take a break.. have that baby...lovely people that you are.
It's ok...I cry too.
Left for dad for 15 minutes...he passed..the docs told me they do thst...when family is gone. It's ok J. Tough for many of us.
“Grief is the price we pay for love”🙏🏽💜🕊️
Facts 😢
I just lost my dad 2 days ago I played this song for him. He passed 20 minutes later. I just wanted to let you guys know that my dad was a very big fan of your guys. He watched your guys reactions. He used to say how genuine you guys are
Sorry for your loss 🙏
I'm so sorry for your loss! I'm sure he was so comforted by you being there for him and knowing how much you loved him...also know how much he surely appreciated you playing this beautiful song for him. I can empathize, i lost my dad when i was I was 27yrs old. My deepest condolences.🙏❤️🕯
💔🙏❤ I'm sorry for your loss, Stevie.
I'm so sorry for your loss.😢 I lost my daddy 12 years ago and I miss him everyday
I’m so extremely sorry for your loss. God bless you and your family. 🙏🏻
Both James and his dad are ex military guys but when they filmed this, they hadn't found a donor for his terminal illness and James and filming crew were bawling. Everyone cried except the old man who scolded them saying " stop, I am not dead YET" Legend!!! Lol I am so glad they found a donor after this song was out and he is stable now. 🙏 I miss my dad so much RIP.💔
James fought in Bosnia in The House Hold Cavalry, Blues and Royals. His Father is Charlie Blount who was an Army pilot in the Army Air Corps.
Thanks for that I was curious, you can tell its an emotional song for James as he is crying most of the way through it
@@andyjordan8256 he was lifeguards ,household cavalry !!
@Alexander Marquardt who is giving them shit ???
@Alexander Marquardt ah !! I get what you’re saying lol !!
This is definitely not the only James Blunt song that would make you cry…
I posted that's true . The song CRY makes me cry✌️
He is great with the tearjerkers - No Tears, No Bravery, Carry You Home, Goodbye My Lover, and If Time is All I Have are some of my favorites. But he also has some very enjoyable upbeat songs like The Truth, Ok, and Satellites.
You are so right
The line “m not your father, your not my son, we’re just two grown men saying goodby” is what. James’s father said to him when James went off to war. He put that line in the song and it rips me every single time.
As an older man, I want to jump through the screen and hug both of you.
Amen and Amen 🙏🙏🙏🙏
So glad you reacted to this song. James, father who is in the video with him also was diagnosed with cancer and was going to pass away, this is why James wrote this song as a goodbye to his father while he was here to hear it instead of waiting until he was gone. Later though they found a donor and he is fine now.
It was actually kidney disease his father was diagnosed with and got a transplant from a family member that went well but I have heard that his dad may not be doing well again since the transplant.
@@chevetteman17 okay I didn't remember I thought it was Cancer. I stand corrected.
@@zionedenniobe Could be both. My wife had kidney cancer so they had to remove it. If she has any issues she will need a transplant.
@@zionedenniobe sorry I hope I didn’t come off rude or mean. I just remember an interview that can be found on TH-cam with him talking about it. Take care.
@@chevetteman17 No, you didn't it's fine. I'm okay I'll live 😀.
When he sang, "its my turn to chase the monsters away," I started bawling like a baby. Dear god what a song. My first time hearing it too.
Me, too....I sobbed like crazy. I heard this song the first time, quite by accident, a week before I delivered the principal eulogy at my father's memorial service.
thanks so much . . . you guys are great! love you so much! life is tough don't give up All my love to you and yours . . . . Still hanging on . . . Love always . . .
This song gets me every time. I was really close to my dad since my mom passed 19 years before my dad, so during those 19 years we became really close. Sadly my dad passed in his sleep, alone, but peacefully as far as I can guess. My greatest regret is not being there when my dad passed, but he died knowing he was loved by me and my bride.
such a beautiful and meaningful song.
Lost my dad when I was 12. 60 now and it still hurts. You two are beautiful.
It is so hard. We never feel that pain less, we just get more used to having the pain. After 29 years I still miss her every day. The hardest are the big moments, my wedding, the birth of my our children and then grandchildren. I know she's up there watching over my son waiting for me.
I was four; it was seventy years ago. This song speaks to everyone. I'm thinking of how I will say goodby to my grandchildren because that day isn't here but it isn't all that far from now either.
I never knew my biological father, illness and other. I therefore empathise with you strongly.
This was written by James after his father was told it was highly unlikely that he would get the life-saving transplant he desperately needed. The good news is that only a few weeks after the song and video (yes that is James' dad) was released a donor was found and thankfully a couple of years on, his Dad is still alive. I love the song but for me, the fact that his dad witnessed the love and emotion from his son is beautiful. My dad died suddenly and I wish I'd been able to tell him just how wonderful he was to me and my children in such a lovely way. 😍
Yes James wrote it, but his sister actually wrote a poem about their father and that is the basis of the lyrics
I spent my beloved Dad’s last night with him in the Hospital. I sat by his bed all night and though he was not responding, I told him all the things I’d wanted to say…that he had been a wonderful Dad. That we his children were so proud of him. That we had always known we were loved.
@@DAS1962 a really talented family
@@agf1700 he heard every word…
@@melvinsmiley5295 I think he did. It’s been over 2 decades and we all still miss him. We still talk about him, the things he used to say and do. All his funny sayings. Life was never boring around him and our darling Mother was the perfect foil for his big personality.
Oh wow I've never heard this before and I'm sitting here crying like a baby. What a sad and beautiful song 😭😭😭
Me too
Me neither. I'm sitting in my room at midnight, crying my eyes out.

Same ...
"You're Beautiful" is the next one to listen to by James Blunt,.. I love it. (His voice is beautiful)
Yes! Love that song! Such a beautiful song! ❤️
I love that song! Great comment, very true!
It's true! 😉
1973 is also a fave of mine .
They need to hear this lovely song...
New father to a boy here. He's about to be 18 months old. He is my damn world. My father currently has cancer. I am so happy for you guys. Congratulations, and may your family be blessed.
Hope your dad gets better my friend. Blessings to you
@@TheBlaert thanks bro
My father died over 10 years ago. He was 83, and he apologized to me for not being a good man, and I said there was nothing to forgive. And now with the loss of my father and my brothers, I’m the patriarch of the family.and trying to do what’s right for my children and grandchildren.
Do your best, that's all anyone can ask for. And I'm glad you had that moment with your dad. Be well, Timothy ❤🙏
I read the story behind this beautiful song. That was his dad and was diagnosed with kidney cancer I think 2017. HE was given only a few months to live but I think it was a distant cousin that gave him a kidney. The last I heard about him, he was doing fine. The song was recorded only a few days after he was diagnosed. Love your reaction to this song and don't apologize for shedding tears for a loved one. Lost my dad when I was 13 and I'm now 74 and still miss him. Love you guys!
His father is still with us.
Every song this guy sings will break your heart. He has such an angelic delivery with the words he sings. Blessings to both of you and your beautiful hearts and memories...
This song and vid are the most emotional
Please don’t ever apologize for having an emotional reaction to a song. Sometimes music is painful and cathartic, and that’s okay. I’m so glad you two have each other and your family to lean on and be vulnerable with. 💜
Indeed
My father died of cirrhosis in 2000 after a lifetime of alcohol abuse. I stayed mad at him for decades after his death. I first heard this song on an offshore drilling rig and immediately lost it. This song made me understand that my anger was only harming me. I immediately forgave him and let go of that useless anger. Thank you Mr. Blunt
Man this must've hit u real hard with the lyrics
My son lost his battle with alcohol in 2021 and I absolutely agree with you!! You have to let go of the anger and forgive them. I still have days when I get mad at him....especially seeing my grandsons growing up without him. But I did everything I could. Love and prayers to you!!💜💜🙏🙏
i’m so thankful you found peace 🙏🙏
No need to forgive, no need to forget. I know your mistakes and you know mine. That hit me too. It's sad you didn't get the chance but am glad you've finally found your peace.
@@marcieharreld286I sleep soundly knowing that he left behind for my daughters a father who doesn’t drink
Amber & J, you both get an A+ from me. This is why I continue to watch your channel. You both are so genuine in your responses. What lovely human beings you seem to be. Much love.
James needs more reacts. He’s a brilliant songwriter and singer. He sings all his songs from the heart
He has a great sense of humour and treats his success with the same humour. Lovely man
Truly great reaction. Your best yet
very difficult but beautiful song. losing our parents is one of the hardest things in life. I am 65 yrs old and I still feel like an orphan. I lost my dad in 1999 and it is still very tough some days. Love, hugs and prayers to you both and all those missing their parent or parents.
Yes that's his dad, at the time his dad had stage 4 kidney failure with no sign of a donor. So it was his good-bye song. His father has since found a donor and is doing okay.
No one can sing the emotion in a song like James Blunt. He's got a great catalogue of music and somehow people in the industry underestimate him.
James has said that everyone in the studio was crying during this recording, only his father was calm saying "Why is everyone crying? I'm stilll here."
😊😊
How self centered his dad is
@@toker6664 I doubt that. Perhaps you are misreading the situation. It's called stoicism.
@@christinestromberg4057 everyone feeling in their emotions but he's like I'm good acting like he's the reasons everyone is feeling emotional.
@@toker6664 Not too sure what you're saying there but as a military man I'm sure he was saying, you can cry when I've gone, but I'm still here. And of course he was the reason they were all emotional.
Genuine folks bearing their souls to a very worthwhile piece of art.
Perfect.
🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼
For the hardest track you've listened to, you can both hold your heads up high & stand tall knowing that your grandfather & your father would be so proud of the people they have blessed the world with. Thank you for sharing such a deep part of yourselves with us.
Rob, I lost my dad in 1985. My best friend. I’m 73 now. I’m here if you ever need to just talk.
This reaction was incredible. What you both shared with us just makes you even more wonderful.
I loved James Blunt when he first hit the scene & I never heard this one. Hope you’ll listen to his first hit “You’re Beautiful” sometime. My heart goes out to you both having lost your dads so young. Sending you lots of hugs! ❤️
Most genuine response i've seen to this song. Thank you for sharing xxx😢
Lost my dad February 2022 to COVID. I’ve never heard this song until seeing this video. Tears are falling - what a beautiful tribute to all our fathers. I miss you dad. Thank you for posting this and showing your true emotions with the rest of us.
I don’t know why I keep watching reactions to this song. I’m bawl every single time!! There’s a small thing at the end (just before you stopped it, most people miss it) when his father pats his arm as a way of still trying to comfort him, even when the song is about the son trying to comfort his father. We are always sons and daughters no matter what. That bit totally finishes me off. Great reaction, I know the pain.
Yes! I noticed it too. Such a natural, loving gesture from James’ Dad. ❤️
omg, i've been doing the same thing -- almost exactly the same thing, crying with each one, and watching to the very end, wondering if they're going to see that pat on his arm, so sweet.
same!
Wow, I'd never heard this song before. Couldn't even make it past the 1 verse before I was tearing up. Blubbering like a baby by midway. 😭 Never apologize for crying or being emotional in a reaction, it shows you're human ♥
Same 😭 and agreed ❤💙
love you so much! funny, isn't it, i've written several books but have little to say.... love you so much
Oh, same for me! What a song!
Those dang onions....this song makes me remember my dad so much. Every word of this song resonates with me.
@@dennisyoung9500 ...Published, I assume. And why mention this?
I feel privileged that you both trust me and your other subscribers to bare your souls and emotions to us ! You both have beautiful hearts 💕 !
Never apologize for showing emotion. It is one of the reasons why we love music, for how it makes us feel our humanity. This song will break anyone with a heart. James' voice is haunting and perfect for this song. You both are amazing, love your reactions!! Keep up the great work.
No reason to apologize. Your reactions to this song is truly what this song deserves. Also, it takes more courage to cry in front of people then it does to cry alone. 🙂👍
A good 😢 cry
I lost my Dad in 2011, he was my everything and I never wanted to see him pass, I had hoped I'd go before him. Any way I was there as he was passing, holding his hand reminiscing (I know he heard me) rubbing his forehead. My sister and my dad's wife just sat there not touching or loving him at all. It was all me, but I never said goodbye, I just told him to say hello to those other precious people we lost and I'd see him again and be waiting there to hold my hand. Never heard this song but it is beautiful 💕💕💕
It is now August 17, 2024. I had not encountered this song until last year. I'm 64. My dad was the monster when I was a kid. He beat me relentlessly, I was terrified to come home from school, every day. He died in 2011 and I felt nothing. Not joy, not relief, not sorrow. Nothing. So watching this and hearing the phrase "There's no need to forgive, no need to forget. I know your mistakes and you know mine" that phrase grabs me by the guts. It never occurred to me he had his demons too. I managed to admit there was something wrong with me in the late eighties and I got help. In his reality there was no help to get. No one to tell. All he had was his rage, and that never comes from nowhere. After this song, I can manage some forgiveness, and perhaps some love and understanding. I cry like a baby every single time I hear this (especially when seeing a reaction like yours). Hearing your story about how good your dad was and that he didn't have it good when he was a kid, I'm glad he stopped the cycle. That is a Herculean task, to overcome his childhood. I hope he found some love and forgiveness for his dad.
It’s 4:00am and I’m an emotional wreck over this. I lost my dad to cancer last October and on my side of the family he was all I had & my hero who sacrificed so much for me. Taking care of him at home on hospice for 4 months and as exhausting and heartbreaking as it was I wouldn’t change that time for anything. ❤
Don’t ever apologize for crying. It’s good to feel so much love from a song. It makes you feel better.
I've never heard this song before. Truly real and heartfelt. So touching that he's singing to his real father there!😥😥
I never heard this song before and now hearing it....wow really got to me. I'm 50 and my dad's health is not doing well, and this really made me realize I need to take better care of him for the days he has left. Thank you both for sharing.
This is why I watch your channel. You are REAL. People are literally on your side when they watch your reactions. Bravo Jay and Amber.
I love James Blunt. Such an emotional song. Don’t apologize to us. You’re human with a soft heart. Most of us are probably crying with you. I am.
His dad had stage 4 kidney failure when James wrote this and a donor couldn't be found. After the video was released a distant cousin came forward who was a match. He donated all the profits from this song to Help For Hero's a UK veterans charity (both him and his dad were in the military). They did this in one take and at the end everyone in the studio was crying except James' dad who said 'why all this I'm not gone yet'.
OMG! You were there? How great it must have been.
As if this song is not hard enough to listen to, but we can all relate to it some way or another. You guys are so sincere and it was a beautiful reaction, thank you both ❤
I just LOVE you two! You have wonderful hearts and your tears show how precious your loved ones are to you.This song gets me every time. But I’m at an age when “good-byes”are much more frequent than “hellos”!Thank you for your honest reaction…PLEASE do not apologize for those deep feelings! Big hugs to you both! ❤️
Your son will be so blessed having you as his father. It won’t be easy at times but there are few things in this world more important than raising and loving your children.
Heard this song a hundred times, never shed a tear. I watched your heart break with this reaction, and before i knew what was happening I had tears running down my cheek.. Must have been the onion I chopped up earlier.
Yeah, thinking I was chopping up the same onion
We are in California. Whenever I get to Oklahoma, my wife Jane and myself are going to call you guys up and take the family out for a wonderful meal. You have so enrich my life as I watch your wonderful reactions and completely internalize the humanity of you two. Sometimes your spirits leave me breathless. You are truly to absolutely self-actualized individuals. I respect you so much!
You guys give me hope for the future - not only your amazing hearts, but that you are passing on your values to your kids, and there's little doubt they are going to be amazing as they grow! Never apologize for tears - ESPECIALLY YOU J! - they show your heart is tender and open to love. Children need to see their parents cry, so that they can understand it's ok for them to cry sometimes too, and that their parents are human and hurt sometimes. Love to the family from ours. You bring such joy into my daily routine!
Jordan, the strongest man I've ever known was a WWll veteran, a retired LAPD officer and then a prison guard. He was a steel coated marshmallow that did not care who saw him cry when he was sad, no shame just using one of Gods greatest gifts, cleansing tears. You teach that boy of yours that real men show and share their emotions. The man mentioned above was my Grandfather, a kind, gentle giant but also tough as tough gets. Thank you for sharing your grief and your tears. You too, Amber.
My beautiful Dad always said Jordan, “bigger the man who can cry than the one who can’t” so never be afraid or ashamed to let those tears out, they show you’re human x
The best reaction video you two have ever done, this brought a tear to my eye as your reaction video today was an answer to my prayer. I just found out that my mother has stage 4 lung cancer and lymphoma, and barring an unforeseen miracle, she has three or four months to live and she is only 63. Your reaction video to this particular song was therapy for me and I was crying as much as you 2.
I'm so sorry
I am so sorry about your mom's diagnosis. I've lost both parents and two siblings, one just a couple months ago that we cared for the last few months. It's been difficult. So this song hit me pretty hard too. Please know that I will keep your mother, you and your family in my prayers. God bless you all.
❤🥺.xx
God Bless you and your Mom Michael, I’m so sorry to hear of her diagnosis. Hug each other tight you can still make beautiful memories together. ❤️
James is such a gifted songwriter,this is heartbreaking but let’s not forget he is the undefeated king of Twitter….love him ❤
Wow, I never heard this song before. It’s very powerful and so emotional. It’s sure to touch heart of anyone who has ever lost a beloved parent or grandparent. ❤️
I’m bawling right now! This is so BEAUTIFUL! I lost both my parents to cancer…I miss them dearly…I’m sorry for both your losses…Let the love and tears flow…Thank you…❤️🇨🇦
I've never seen this video, heard the song or heard of James Blunt but whoever told you to bring a box of kleenex gave some good advice. This song is sung straight from the heart. Thanks for the introduction to this singer, guys. Sending you both hugs and to anyone else that needs one. Can't wait until Luka arrives for your hearts, Jordan and Amber. Take care and be well. Peace.
It’s new to me too it’s beautiful
Blunt is not only a phenomenal singer/songwriter, he's also a veteran of the British Armed Forces and, ironically enough, an absolutely hilarious dude when he's off the stage. Check out some of the interviews he's done or recaps of his epic twitter posts.
I know I sent them this song as a DM on their Instagram, not sure if it’s my suggestion that prompted the reaction or someone else. I love the song so much, I cry my eyes out almost every time I hear it.
Wow
Be sure and give his "1973" a listen
You never have to apologize for the pure reaction to a song that touches everyone who has lost someone.
Pleasure don't be sorry that you are crying. You are both human and have very good hearts. You are sensitive humans like the rest of us. Bless you both.
Wow - how powerful. Never heard this before - great song !

Thank you guys for being real and sharing all of your thoughts and emotions with us, whether they’re happy or sad.
I lost my Daddy to stage 4 lung and brain cancer in 2013. i will always be a Daddy's girl. I got there to late to say goodbye what hurts the most is he was there for my 1st breath and i wasn't there for his last. very tough to overcome that i was not there when he passed i was stuck in a traffic jam. he passed 20 minutes before i made it to his house.
Amber and Jordan: I just want to give you a hug. I've watched hundreds of your videos and this is your most emotional. I think you're both incredibly beautiful people, inside and out. Greetings from the UK 🥰
Are you aware that James Blunt started his life up as an army officer, he also saved many a life, and potential village genocide in his actions as an army officer in Kosovo… There is also evidence and proof to say that he also stopped a possible skirmish with the Russians after disobeying orders at the main airport and seeking peaceful outcomes.. truly amazing guy.
He wrote many of his songs while on deployment and used to play them to his crew to see their thoughts on them.
He was also one of the sentinels on the corners of the Queen mother's coffin while she was laying in state.
His song “No Bravery” talks about the things he saw while in combat.
Wow. I’ve heard of James Blunt and I’m familiar with his song “You’re Beautiful” but I’ve never heard this song. I know this was tough to get through, but your reactions were so genuine and pure. I love how REAL you both are during these reactions and I’m proud to be apart of the RSR Fam because of it. I know your Grandpa and Dad are proud of you both! Thank you for the raw emotion you gave in this video. It’s quite refreshing. Love to you both, your girls and baby Luca!
I lost my Dad 9 months ago today. I'm an only child, my Mom passed 13 years ago this month. This song absolutely gutted me.... I was his care giver till his last breath. I was a Daddies girl, he was always, always there for me. I feel so alone these days. Wish I had siblings to be with. Thank you for this reaction. I'll watch it a few more times, until my tissues run out. God bless you both.
I hope you're doing well.
@@TacoJolly Thank you, I'm doing ok. One day at a time.
Thank you both for this. Your son is in good hands. Please don't apologize for being emotional ---- human! A person would have to be dead inside not to feel this remarkable tribute, even if the exact circumstance doesn't apply. James is so underrated. He's good friends with Ed Sheeran, and equally talented, but lacks the recognition as an incredible song writer. He said only one take and no auto tune (the record company tried to fight him on that). He wanted it to be true, raw, and real ---- like those things that happen to us all. We have no auto tune for our lives. Don't know how he got through it. His military training might have helped, but he didn't block his emotions, as Brits (especially military) so often do. (I know. I am one, but learned to break through that rigidity.) So glad that a distant cousin heard the song and saw the video when it was released and turned out to be a match. His dad only had one kidney left after donating one for someone, which made the situation even more dire. As far as I know, he's healthy and doing well now. Thanks again, guys. Take care.
You have to wonder what they put in the water over in the UK. The talent that has come out of there is ridiculous. Kudos to both of you for spreading the net wide. Art is a reflection of humanity and it is just as valid and necessary to express sadness as happiness.
Man, I agree. Just think...in about a seven year window the UK produced The Beatles, The Stones, The Who, Pink Floyd and Led Zep. Nothing like that will ever happen again.

I promise guys. Your Dad and Grandpa are smiling down as we speak at the good work they left behind. Much respect! This song is exceptionally hard for me. My Dad and I worked side by side for most of my life here in Stillwater. He had a massive heart attack one day at the shop. He didn't make it. But I was there with him in the hospital, holding his hand as he passed away. I made sure he knew that Mom was gonna be taken care of. I have lived up to that promise. I miss him every day.
♥️
So sorry for your loss. Thank you so much for sharing your story. I'm positive your dad is so proud of you too, honey. ❤
@Tacitus G. Kilgore that is great advice. And thanks for sharing. Comments like yours restores my faith in people too.
You.both are so Beautiful, your Loved Ones would be so Proud, Bless you both,
Great reaction guys and quite insightful. My dad passed away about a year before this song came out and while it is on a sad topic I still find the song and it’s delivery to be comforting. As you mentioned part way through, he’s letting his dad know that it’s OK for him to go …. He’s grown up and will be sad but safe
I've never heard this before...beautiful...i miss my Daddy.
Loosing both my dad and mom within 3 years of each other this song makes me tear up every time.I was lucky enough to tell my mom it was ok to goI will be ok and she passed at home 15 minutes later, I still remember the last breathe she took.With my dad he told me how proud she was of me and passed less than an hour later.
Same here, lost my dad to suicide 3 years ago, just lost my mom this past February to Covid. Tough song, but nice. Sorry for your losses.
@@scm021374 I lost my favorite aunt to suicide as well. She was more like my mother than my mother. I DEFINITELY know that pain. Lots of hugs and sorry for your loss, too...💖
At the risk of sounding morbid, I love hearing stories of parting messages of love. You obviously treasure those memories. My father passed in heavily drugged, post-operative silence after many months unconscious in a hospital bed. He was far from perfect, but my siblings and I never got the chance to tell him we loved him. Don’t waste a minute (and that works both ways).
@@gerardstephens58 I talked to my dad the day before he shot himself. He tried to call me twice before he did it but I missed his call. I did get to talk to my mom at the end. The family was all there. I agree, don't miss opportunities.
This was done in one take and without auto tune mics at the request of James ... all proceeds were donated to a military charity "Help for Heroes" based in the UK
Don't fight the emotions. It's love. I know exactly how you both feel. I lost my dad to cancer on 12/22/07. It's been 15 years, yet it still feels like yesterday. Tears are pouring out of my eyes. I miss my dad so much. This and Concrete Angel are tearing me up. Thank you both for opening up and sharing. You both are incredible people, and I'm fortunate to be a part of this community. Your dad and grandpa are both beaming with pride at the amazing people that you've become.
One of the most beautiful songs I will never play in the car.
Everyone should hear this song, it makes you think about what’s important in life.
U got that right 👍👍👍
I just came upon this a year after you first posted. I have never heard it before now. When my father became very ill, my mother was angry with me over something and she did not tell me he was taken to the hospital. He passed away and I didn't find out until after. I didn't get a chance to say goodbye. This song is exactly what I would have wanted to say to him. Thank you.
How was he able to get through this. You can see the pain in his eyes and he still absolutely belts it out. Absolutely unbelievable and heartbreaking. My dad is my best friend and I could never be able to pull this off. Bravo James!
My friends, strangely, _it was a pleasure to sit here and _*_cry_*_ with y’all!_
Thank you for your Father Stories.
I’m a subscriber who’s watched dozens of your vids - might have had a tear in my eye once or twice - but this one *really* hit home for me, just like you: my dad’s 90 years old and ailing, and I’m trying to help him out in these “precious to me / painful for him” times.
*AWESOME VID FROM AWESOME PEOPLE!* 🤟✌️
No reason to apologize. Being human and dealing with the loss of those you love is just being who you are. Cried with you and you still brought me joy today in sharing your love.
Why on earth are you apologizing??? This is what music is for, to help us feel and express emotions that defy expression! Having watched the path of James Blunt's career over the years, and seeing him develop into a man of great character, it is inspirational to see him do this moving tribute to his father. What a beautiful world this would be if all fathers and sons (and everyone else) could share their feelings like this!
Your reactions are what makes a song great, first time i have heard this song, and i cried along with you, if a song can reach your emotions then it is great. and boy does this resonate with us all, thank you for your honesty and God bless and protect you, may you live as long as you want and never want as long as you live.
I've never heard this song before. So beautiful. Thank you both for doing this reaction. It's so refreshing to see people not be afraid of showing emotion. In today's world, people are so jaded and terrified of exposing themselves even to friends and family out of fear of being judged. You two put yourselves out there every day and we, the Rob squad reaction family appreciate you.
james seem to come from nowhere .left the british army,and wrote some great hit records amazing .
I can't believe how much I cried watching this with you two. James Blunt just has such honest emotions and they hit home so hard. Thank you for suffering with us (in a wonderful way) through this. I have lost a number of people very important to me. This song unlocks your heart in a way not many can. Amber and Jay - you are such wonderful people. I just want you to know that.
I commend you both for getting through that emotional video/song and still being able to talk afterwards. I would’ve been too choked up to speak. You two are an inspiration to us all as you grow your little family and share your stories with your Followers.
I cant listen to this song without crying. I don’t know how James got through the song with his dad right there beside him.
I can never make it through this without tears. It's so cleansing for the soul and spirit to cry. Hugs to all as we share in this grief and relief.
I cry every time I listen to thing song. I think of my Mom, who has passed, when I hear this song. I didn’t have a Dad but my Mom was everything to me.
I'm crying with you guys. Its all good.
Same here, just let it out
This is the only song I can’t make through without crying. You all were so brave doing this reaction. Hugs to you. ❤️❤️❤️
Same. I come back to this song and various reactors to get in touch with my buried feelings, and I’m a mess by the second verse. His voice cuts into our souls.
Sad but beautiful song, James Blunt is so underrated he is a truly excellent songwriter and performer ! Yes, I cried .
This is the first TH-cam video to make me cry. I love this couple and it’s a privilege to see honest and real reactions to sorrow. It’s sadly a part of life. But it just made me cry all the way through. Thank you for being real.
Best reaction yet guys!! Being genuine is never something to apologize for. Thank you both for sharing your experiences w/ us. Please take care!
Well I was hanging In there with you guys the whole time & was bawling my eyes out too. That was rough. As far as crying goes don't apologize. It's when you can't cry that you better worry about yourself. Love you guys
When this song came out, I had just lost my Dad. The medications had made him a different person. So the idea that I and my sisters could “chase the monsters away” felt only too real. I cried like a baby listening to this song.
I grew up without a father but I loved my father in law, i had to watch him waste away to Cancer and i cannot hear this song without crying, I'm 41. Don't ever be afraid to cry, it doesn't make you less of a man.
You two are gonna be the parents every child needs and deserves. That is his father and they both were military officers in the British Army.
I cannot thank you enough for sharing your emotions, including your tears, with us. I have been living with and caring for my 90 year old mother for 3 years now, and the time is very close. She has dementia now and she is so afraid. In trying to be strong for her I have not, until now, allowed myself to cry. You fixed that problem. The two of you have honestly been my refuge lately. May God bless you and keep you.
