Throwback to my first ever video, uploaded all the way back in January 2013. It's amazing how much has changed!! Thank you to all of you for your support, I love you all so much xx po.st/SamSmithTimeline
Put your headphones on, close your eyes, and I guarantee you will feel goosebumps, and maybe even cry a little! This guy's voice is god's gift to soul music! I can relate to his lyrics, maybe that's why it really hits me hard, and gets me a little emotional. And I don't care what any one says, I'm comfortable enough to admit my emotional and sensitive side as a man.
The real OG fans know this was the original version that came out.. then the studio version came out bc this original acoustic went so viral. This was his break out record and never gets old.
This and Latch were hands down the best music on TH-cam at this time, it’s no wonder he blew up. It’s also crazy bc I remember being in math class in high school when this song came out and rushing to show everybody his songs (that were only acoustic).
I just wanted to say thank you Sam Smith... Thank you for making me feel something, anything... I miss my grandfather so much and this song just screams what my heart is too broken to say. He was in so much pain, I wanted to help him with all my soul but for the life of me, there was nothing to do but let him go. In the end he just layed there so numb, so gone, just there. So I just layed next to him and watched him as he faded away into the abyss. It's been hard letting go of tears that has been built up since but you have made me able to do just that. You helped me really let it go.. Thank you for putting your soul and heart into everything you do.
Melissa Ivana It's comforting to know that there are still musicians who have heart and meaning to what they sing about. You can feel love in music when it's actually there... And Sam Smith has that love. :)
Lyrics Yes, I do, I believe That one day I will be Where I was right there Right next to you And it's hard The days just seem so dark The moon and the stars Are nothing without you Your touch, your skin Where do I begin? No words can explain The way I'm missing you Deny this emptiness This hole that I'm inside These tears They tell their own story Told me not to cry when you were gone But the feeling's overwhelming, it's much too strong Can I lay by your side? Next to you, you And make sure you're alright I'll take care of you I don't want to be here if I can't be with you tonight I'm reaching out to you Can you hear my call? This hurt that I've been through I'm missing you, missing you like crazy [This verse is only in the album version:] You told me not to cry when you were gone But the feeling's overwhelming, it's much too strong Can I lay by your side? Next to you, you And make sure you're alright I'll take care of you I don't want to be here if I can't be with you tonight Lay me down tonight Lay me by your side Lay me down tonight Lay me by your side Can I lay by your side? Next to you You
Elianna, "Lay Me Down" by Sam Smith is one of my all- time favorite songs! It's not because I want Sam to lay down with me, (I know he's gay) it's because he and Sam Smith and his producer, Jimmy Napes can make this song of death yet turn it into about LOVE! xx
Love this song it makes me cry as I lost my son aged 19 and I miss him so much I miss you son so so much ❤️ Sittin in the darkness running through my mind looking at the memories of my long lost child hoping to revive him n bring him home to me but then I realise that that just won't be I'm living in this torture running through my mind searching for the reason of which I cannot find Why he had to leave me and leave this empty space gone and lost forever and never to be replaced
Why are people surprised that they connect to this song when its written by a gay dude for another gay dude. Like, maybe love is universal??? Maybe a man can love a man the same way we say a man can only love a woman?
im kiddin ppl he is fantastik srly it was just provok srly replay x50 all hes songs he have a gift from god world need some much ppl like him peace and love :)
I don't really know if I can explain what your singing does to me, Sam. This opens me up more than any therapist or even my best friend could. I can't explain it, your music and your emotion and your passion just sometimes makes me break down and cry for hours when I need it. I don't know if I can thank you enough. You are so talented and so blessed. And you've given that blessing unto us with your beautiful music. I love you, Sam.
I love the mood shift within this song. From the almost "musical" style of the beginning, to the swing of a Sinatra-esque... To the big bold bridge... I LOVE IT! Plus this song truly shows his range... Most of his songs are mid range/falsetto... But I like his lower register too. This song is brilliant.
I felt the same way about the unplugged version of “Take on Me” (the one they used in Deadpool 2). It makes you really think of the meaning of the song’s lyrics and therefore it’s more emotional because it’s more simple.
I dedicate this to all of my little pets who I have nursed in their last dying days; most recently, my little rabbit, Big Brown, who passed right before Christmas.
My grandmother passed away last Friday and it's my most painful heartbreak. I grew up with her. She took care of me, raised me, saw me at my best and worst. I have always slept by her side. Now I can't lay by her side anymore.
This song hits home for me on many different levels. My 3 and a half year old son is dying from a rare form of Brain tumor, Diffuse Insintric Pontine Glioma or DIPG for short. He doesn't have much time left and this song speaks to me in my time of need. Music I believe will be my savior in this time of need and God has giving me many signs of strength but by far this is the biggest yet. Thank you Sam Smith for sharing a song with so much meaning. Artists are tending to make music that sells not made as art and you sir are an artist with an amazing gift. This song means the world to me and I'm going to play it at his funeral if possible.
Christian Ampuero uh, bad mistake, I forget about him, I don't say it ok, I want to say that he is the best vocalist who is alive, Freddie have not any comparation
Oh gawd, his voice, the soul. Where do I begin? No words can explain the way I love him. When he sings, I catch major feelings. Simply stunning. *sighs*
There are people that can hold notes, people that have pleasant voices and in general, sound good; but occasionally there are people that make you rise up from your bed,sit up in your chair, or even pull your car over, turn up the radio and say "Who is that?" Then suddenly the DJ says "that was that new artist Sam Smith" and in a moment of delight and confusion you say to yourself "Who the fk is Sam Smith"? I didn't know last week but after seeing his appearance on Saturday Night Live, I certainly know now. And I'm glad about it. His singing makes my soul happy. Thank you Sam
Sam Smith I cannot tell you how many times my sister walked in on me drowning in wine and hysterically crying my eyes out to this song right after my divorce. This song completely healed my soul. Now almost two years later I am sitting in the living room with someone new and I am completely happy and this song brings happy tears to my eyes now. Thank you Sam Smith. ❤
This song is so beautifully simple and honest and pure in its expression of love and longing. It gets to me every time and makes me cry. I can't help but think of my late partner, G., who passed 11 years ago. When he died, I wanted to die as well. I wanted to lay down by his side forever. This song renews my gratitude for having had a love like his in my life, and it re-awakens my awareness of how much I miss him. I love you, G.
I love him. he can hit all of those falsettos notes with ease and still do it live. A ton of artists have to fake it when doing it live compared to the recorded version, but he can always do it and he put so much emotion behind the words every time. He is truly inspirational.
I feel like this has more meaning than the original, like he's putting his everything into each word and thats one of the reasons i am in love with this song💖
Introduced to me by the love of my life... Danced to it in his living room together... Just us. Now we're on the verge of ending our relationship. Breaks my heart to hear it, but can't stop listening...
Absolutely beautiful and emotionally wonderful. I love it when an artist has emotion and heart in their music/singing.You can see and hear his emotions in his music. Sam Smith your someone who I'd want to hear live. Great vocals. Iam a new fan.
I'm into underground house/techno. have been for years. bands aswell bit not really into singers. heard latch and was hooked on sam smiths voice. unreal vocal ability, just think there hasn't been a singer in my generation as accomplished hence never been to interested in singers before now. one in a trillion talent this lad.the control he has over his voice is phenomenal.
There have been mediocre singers and artists in mainstream music for way too long. Thank god Sam Smith came around with this banging voice and set the bar crazy high in terms of singing that all artists should aspire to. Sam Smith is exactly what the industry needed and even craved, bravo!!
What most people dont know is the story behind this song. This song was wrote in memory of Sam's (either his ex or husband) who passed away. That adds even more emotion to this song. This song gets to me. I showed one of my ex's this song way back when I first heard it. Well long story short, we didnt work out mainly because I wasnt ready to settle down really, and she passed away shortly afterwards. I miss her alot. I also know that when I'm blaring this in my truck or my house and just absolutely going all out singing it, I know she knows I'm singing it to her. I love you Alisha.
I use to think of this as a romantic song. I had a miscarriage about a month ago and my son came to me in a dream and told me “mom don’t cry” so when I hear this song it hits different. I try not to cry but it’s hard.
I remember my sister and I hearing him on I think it was an MTVU performance and we were tryna get out the house until we heard his voice and stopped in our tracks. Damn this boy is bad! Also, heard he came out yesterday, congrats man 😊👏👏👏
This song brings so many emotions to surface. Gives me goosebumps. I could listen to it a dozen times in a row and it doesn't get any less beautiful.
This song makes me think of my grandmother. She's turning 87 this year in May and she's forever complaining about how much pain she's in and how she doesn't want to live any more. This forever breaks my heart because I know she's old now and it's just a matter of time before she passes away. Aaaarg I don't think my heart will be able to take the news of her death, if there's one thing that I'm dreading in this world, it's losing my grandmother. That woman is my ENTIRE life!! 😭 I love you sooooo much granny, words fail me! ❤
Sam Smith is not radio materiel. The radio doesn't deserve him- he sings with an amazing passion and real soul. Every word he sings is one hundred times better than all that autotuned crap on the radio will ever be. He is truly inspiring.
I remember the feelings that got stirred up within me when I first listened to this song and I still get the same feeling every single time I listen to it. This always remind me of the painful unrequited love I experienced years ago. Listening to this song makes it look like it was just yesterday when my heart was irreparably broken.
this song.. forever in my heart. back when the song came out, i'd hear it with my friend who left the country, a girl i fell in love with but broke my heart, and one of my friends who betrayed me... things were calmer but now theyre no longer in my life. love to close my eyes to this song.
I met this guy at work and we both fell in love with each other. I seriously thought I had finally found love and happiness but soon enough, it all came to an end. He was actually dating another girl. Now its just complicated because he says still has feelings for me. We have drifted apart since then but I miss him until now. This lyrics resonate so strongly. I can relate completely.
My granny died last year and I've heard this song on repeat for days. This song is so touching when you've actually lost someone, it makes you understand the lyrics differently.
Every time I listen to your music I can not help but remember what my eldest brother [sadly passed now.], who introduced me to the world of music, told me: "Ever one is introduced to music in the womb, Your Mothers heartbeat. That's why the first musical instruments were forms of drums. A true artist's music will echo that beat." Thank you for sharing your Heart with me. A Fan
Sigo escuchándola y cada vez que lo hago me enamoro mas de esta canción, todas las canciones de Sam Smith tienen mucho aprecio para mí, esta es una de mis preferidas. Me encanta!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Throwback to my first ever video, uploaded all the way back in January 2013. It's amazing how much has changed!! Thank you to all of you for your support, I love you all so much xx po.st/SamSmithTimeline
Love it
Great song
No thank you, you truly deserve all of this, you're music has helped many people! And you know what, words can not explain how great you actually are.
Sam Smith is wonderful.
YOur sing is realy good. You sing so well.
My first ever video upload more than a year ago...also happens to be the last track on the album. Pre-order it here po.st/dFhNFZ
genio! sos un grande!
I'm about 10 replays by now !! Gracias!
I haven't bought an album in a few years, there hasn't been a good reason, until I just listened to a few of your songs. I'm going for it.
so incredible talented.. compliments from a musician!
if u ever feel like coming to Argentina and Jamming in amazing places, with amazing piano players.. just let me know! u're amazing!
Am I the only one craving for an Adele and Sam Smith duet?
+Adarsh Gujadhur omg!!! YESSSSS!!!!
ikr?
+Adarsh Gujadhur No, that sounds amazing. lol
YESSSSSS
+Adarsh Gujadhur No you're not alone. :)
How, how on earth can he sing this song like this, this perfectly pitched, without crying?? Can't imagine.
Talent he's awsome
mynameisvampka I have chills rn😍
I can barely even listen to it without crying
Ikr. He sung with so much emotion like he was feeling heartbroken at that time
You can work for the same voice as long as you give it time
Put your headphones on, close your eyes, and I guarantee you will feel goosebumps, and maybe even cry a little! This guy's voice is god's gift to soul music! I can relate to his lyrics, maybe that's why it really hits me hard, and gets me a little emotional. And I don't care what any one says, I'm comfortable enough to admit my emotional and sensitive side as a man.
as you should, expressing your emotions makes you human not less of a man... I appreciate that!
You feel things when listening to this song
Yes !:(
same here, i feel that feeling listening to this while i sleep. i dont know how people can dislike this video!
Absolutely... goosebumps don't even begin to describe
BIG UP James Cordon for mentioning ‘Lay Me Down’ at the #BRITS - buy it here x po.st/siFBb8
tune
DONT WRORRY SAM, YOU'LL GET OUT THE ILLUMINATI SAFE
Goosebumps!
IT'S ABOUT TIME. I have been waiting for the acoustic version to come out on iTunes. :D
amazeing !!! melts me every time I listen.... THAT VOICE !!! WOW
You see the distance he has from the microphone? That's How Strong that voice could be smh truetalent man
millbill killbill Or a really good microphone
That's just good mic, good preamps, and good compression, which makes quiet parts sound louder, and loud parts sound the same as the quiet parts
Ignacio Vera The amount of professional sound technicians on youtube is astounding!
millbill killbill wow such a good observation
Strong voice yes, but also a good mic with some gain behind it. You can make a mic very sensitive to sound with gain.
The real OG fans know this was the original version that came out.. then the studio version came out bc this original acoustic went so viral. This was his break out record and never gets old.
This and Latch were hands down the best music on TH-cam at this time, it’s no wonder he blew up. It’s also crazy bc I remember being in math class in high school when this song came out and rushing to show everybody his songs (that were only acoustic).
‘Their’ 😉
Yes!!!
I swear I only heard this song randomly 2 years ago
Ended up back here cause I haven’t heard the song in years so I listened on Spotify recently and it sounded way off. Makes sense now.
I just wanted to say thank you Sam Smith... Thank you for making me feel something, anything... I miss my grandfather so much and this song just screams what my heart is too broken to say. He was in so much pain, I wanted to help him with all my soul but for the life of me, there was nothing to do but let him go. In the end he just layed there so numb, so gone, just there.

Melissa Ivana It's comforting to know that there are still musicians who have heart and meaning to what they sing about. You can feel love in music when it's actually there... And Sam Smith has that love. :)
OH. MY. GOD. I died. I love this song!!! Especially the part where he sings "Can I lay by your side..." I just want to burst into tears. DEM FEELS.
I KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN, I CRY EVERY TIME I HEAR IT BUT I CANT STOP PLAYING IT!!
Yass
Lyrics
Yes, I do, I believe
That one day I will be
Where I was right there
Right next to you
And it's hard
The days just seem so dark
The moon and the stars
Are nothing without you
Your touch, your skin
Where do I begin?
No words can explain
The way I'm missing you
Deny this emptiness
This hole that I'm inside
These tears
They tell their own story
Told me not to cry when you were gone
But the feeling's overwhelming, it's much too strong
Can I lay by your side?
Next to you, you
And make sure you're alright
I'll take care of you
I don't want to be here if I can't be with you tonight
I'm reaching out to you
Can you hear my call?
This hurt that I've been through
I'm missing you, missing you like crazy
[This verse is only in the album version:]
You told me not to cry when you were gone
But the feeling's overwhelming, it's much too strong
Can I lay by your side?
Next to you, you
And make sure you're alright
I'll take care of you
I don't want to be here if I can't be with you tonight
Lay me down tonight
Lay me by your side
Lay me down tonight
Lay me by your side
Can I lay by your side?
Next to you
You
Somethings missing
Thanks
I will never ever get over this song
+elianna garcia lol...why would you want to?
Elianna, "Lay Me Down" by Sam Smith is one of my all- time favorite songs! It's not because I want Sam to lay down with me, (I know he's gay) it's because he and Sam Smith and his producer, Jimmy Napes can make this song of death yet turn it into about LOVE! xx
same, girl : )
it's been 5 months, i bet you done
HELL NO!!! NEVER GET DONE WITH SONG NOR THE MAN SINGING IT!!
Love this song it makes me cry as I lost my son aged 19 and I miss him so much
I miss you son so so much ❤️
Sittin in the darkness running through my mind
looking at the memories of my long lost child
hoping to revive him n bring him home to me
but then I realise that that just won't be
I'm living in this torture running through my mind
searching for the reason of which I cannot find
Why he had to leave me and leave this empty space
gone and lost forever and never to be replaced
Im sorry for your loss but it does remind you of sad moments in your life.
I'm sorry for your loss, Michelle.
i'm sorry for your loss!
idk when i read this and herad the music and just thought how i would feel when i was you... omg u r so strong idk but tears came up omg
I'm so sorry. Hang in there beautiful.
Why are people surprised that they connect to this song when its written by a gay dude for another gay dude. Like, maybe love is universal??? Maybe a man can love a man the same way we say a man can only love a woman?
Kladjos Alikollari well then I hope you don't plan on ever getting married cause it doesn't look like your name is steve either
Kladjos Alikollari stop
Kladjos Alikollari Thought provoking and original.
im kiddin ppl he is fantastik srly it was just provok srly replay x50 all hes songs he have a gift from god world need some much ppl like him peace and love :)
Preeeeach!!! :)
I don't really know if I can explain what your singing does to me, Sam. This opens me up more than any therapist or even my best friend could. I can't explain it, your music and your emotion and your passion just sometimes makes me break down and cry for hours when I need it. I don't know if I can thank you enough. You are so talented and so blessed. And you've given that blessing unto us with your beautiful music. I love you, Sam.
Sam is my help in whatever, whenever I feel bad, he will always be there to warm me up with his beautiful voice
his voice... the feels. even his scream while riding a roller coaster would be a #1 single.
I love the mood shift within this song. From the almost "musical" style of the beginning, to the swing of a Sinatra-esque... To the big bold bridge... I LOVE IT! Plus this song truly shows his range... Most of his songs are mid range/falsetto... But I like his lower register too. This song is brilliant.
Awesome breakdown and analysis!
agreed
Francisco matute peers ALSO AGREE :-)
The acoustic is way better.. This is giving so many feels and I love it
InfinityxDreams it feels so stripped back, and almost underproduced, but it makes it so much more emotional
I felt the same way about the unplugged version of “Take on Me” (the one they used in Deadpool 2). It makes you really think of the meaning of the song’s lyrics and therefore it’s more emotional because it’s more simple.
My friend who I’m paying this for now feels the exact way and I wasn’t the biggest fan of Sam smith but now I love his songs💖🤍
Does it count as "acoustic" when there's no acoustic guitar? 🤔
@@iamme3160 jj*jjjj
If him and adele did a song together I swear to God I will drown in my own tears..
Mo ™ YASS! Been saying that for years!!! 😁
Mo ™ roo
Yes! Oh my god the tears and the feels 🤯🤯
Mo ™ I agree with you!
I dedicate this to all of my little pets who I have nursed in their last dying days; most recently, my little rabbit, Big Brown, who passed right before Christmas.
T_T
I just lost my hamster😭
I dedicate this to all of my webkinz pets who haven't been fed since 2007 )):
I dedicate this to all the animals in fac farms, (on cafos), and on tables.
what do you dedicate? a comment?
Damn these onions! They appear wherever and whenever Sam sings!
His voice gives me an eargasm
Wtf is a eargasm
+Shia Weller 😂😂😂💀💀
Wtf. I can feel orgasm in his voice
My grandmother passed away last Friday and it's my most painful heartbreak. I grew up with her. She took care of me, raised me, saw me at my best and worst. I have always slept by her side. Now I can't lay by her side anymore.

This song has me in tears right now. Powerful song 😢
Daquino02 GO 100 SUBS what the hell is your problem? she said its a powerful song..hence good music.
ha ok sorry I am portguese now go to tradutor now Powerful is good ok sorry pensava q era mau
Me too 😭
Still listening to the old Sam Smith 2023 this version was so breath taking
Best male vocalist ever
........ Freddie Mercury? All the way
Christian Ampuero uh, bad mistake, I forget about him, I don't say it ok, I want to say that he is the best vocalist who is alive, Freddie have not any comparation
I speak Spanish you know and I made a mistake, im sorry
+Yazz Lovato Big claim, although I do love Sam. Did you remember Michael Jackson in that list?
+TheYes Dave I saw your above post after, maybe he is the best male vocalist alive, although I really rate Usher
Oh gawd, his voice, the soul. Where do I begin? No words can explain the way I love him. When he sings, I catch major feelings. Simply stunning. *sighs*
The emotion that his voice bleeds is so magnificent. Ugh, Sam, you've gained a lifelong fan.
My exact feelings
Damn. Even without an acoustic background or whatever, just his voice alone man. I can listen to his acapella and cry
The feeling in this song was so contagious I'm crying.
There are people that can hold notes, people that have pleasant voices and in general, sound good; but occasionally there are people that make you rise up from your bed,sit up in your chair, or even pull your car over, turn up the radio and say "Who is that?" Then suddenly the DJ says "that was that new artist Sam Smith" and in a moment of delight and confusion you say to yourself "Who the fk is Sam Smith"? I didn't know last week but after seeing his appearance on Saturday Night Live, I certainly know now. And I'm glad about it. His singing makes my soul happy. Thank you Sam
This song says more about my life, and my love than I can say....Amazing...xox
couldn't agree more
i was obsessed then - i'm still obsessed now. you are a beautiful soul and gift to this world. i will forever love you, respect you, and support you!
If this is not talent I don't know what it is
miracle
Exactly haha
I agree Elsa☺️
+Mr Aether haha ☺️
✨Masterpiece✨
He quite possibly is the best singer on the planet when u put together all his vocal ranges, projected emotion, and writing skill. Wow man.
I would. I can't name a better singer today.
Christina Aguilera & Adele both write their own music & both have larger vocal ranges. He's maybe the best male singer bruhhh...
IMPACTxYoungfk Mitch Grassi is really good.
whoah slow down..the best singer on the planet ? I LOVE Sam Smith and his songs but when it comes to vocals Brian McKnight is my absolute number 1.
gucci mane? daah?
3:30 gave me freaking chill bumps. His voice is so amazing.
Sam Smith I cannot tell you how many times my sister walked in on me drowning in wine and hysterically crying my eyes out to this song right after my divorce. This song completely healed my soul. Now almost two years later I am sitting in the living room with someone new and I am completely happy and this song brings happy tears to my eyes now. Thank you Sam Smith. ❤
Sounds just like the studio version 😭. His voice is perfection both live & studio.
just finished watching the fault in our stars. this song is perfect for the movie.
OMG i thought about that too! it actually gave me chills when i heard this song and remembering the fault in our stars...
Omg like when Gus sneaks in to see Hazel in the hospital... The feels..
I swear whenever this guy sings, he just talks to my soul mehn. His voice is just so beautiful and soul touching
that's me too! like the lyrics with his voice... it's like he speaks to my situations...
feelin' the same here..
raw and full of emotion. amazing song and vocals. thank you for sharing your talent sam smith.
This song is so beautifully simple and honest and pure in its expression of love and longing. It gets to me every time and makes me cry.

This is the most beautiful thing I have ever heard in my entire life, had me tearing up!
there's something about his voice that touches my heart.
I like the acoustic version the best . Absolutely amazing vocals !
I agree.....i felt every word
I feel like this has more meaning than the original, like he's putting his everything into each word and thats one of the reasons i am in love with this song💖
sam smith anbd jessie j duet pleasee!! your voices will blend so well!!! love your voice!!

Dominique Rivera yes you are even if your not in it.

Introduced to me by the love of my life... Danced to it in his living room together... Just us. Now we're on the verge of ending our relationship. Breaks my heart to hear it, but can't stop listening...
Sending love and light to you 🌹
Wow I know exactly what you mean, stay strong hunny
Absolutely beautiful and emotionally wonderful. I love it when an artist has emotion and heart in their music/singing.You can see and hear his emotions in his music. Sam Smith your someone who I'd want to hear live. Great vocals. Iam a new fan.
Couldn't have said it better myself. He's amazing!:)
he needs to do a duet with Adele. They would do a great cover.
Omg that would be a ear orgasm I'd have to keep on repeat.
That's what I said!:D
HeySheba, it's an EAR-GASM ! :)
Or Christina Aguilera
Or Sia!
I'm into underground house/techno. have been for years. bands aswell bit not really into singers. heard latch and was hooked on sam smiths voice. unreal vocal ability, just think there hasn't been a singer in my generation as accomplished hence never been to interested in singers before now. one in a trillion talent this lad.the control he has over his voice is phenomenal.
+boughtinerror yeah Latch was what first got me into Sam Smith. He's got an incredible voice.
Damn such a voice barely needs instruments.... so great, well done !!!!
peace
There have been mediocre singers and artists in mainstream music for way too long. Thank god Sam Smith came around with this banging voice and set the bar crazy high in terms of singing that all artists should aspire to. Sam Smith is exactly what the industry needed and even craved, bravo!!
He has the tone of Adele and the vocal control and vibrato of Beyoncé. It's perfect.
What most people dont know is the story behind this song. This song was wrote in memory of Sam's (either his ex or husband) who passed away. That adds even more emotion to this song. This song gets to me. I showed one of my ex's this song way back when I first heard it. Well long story short, we didnt work out mainly because I wasnt ready to settle down really, and she passed away shortly afterwards. I miss her alot. I also know that when I'm blaring this in my truck or my house and just absolutely going all out singing it, I know she knows I'm singing it to her. I love you Alisha.
His songs are so calming and relaxing 😊
Driving at night while listening to Sam Smith is pure bliss. Try it!
Am I the only one who thinks singing is so effortless for him? Like he doesn't even have to try. Beautiful voice!
I use to think of this as a romantic song. I had a miscarriage about a month ago and my son came to me in a dream and told me “mom don’t cry” so when I hear this song it hits different. I try not to cry but it’s hard.
Oh my god …. I literally closed my eyes and listened to this after my miscarriage and I never cried more .. I loved this song before … but now ..
This song reminds me so much of my son RIP R.I.P Rayel Owen Da Silva #4eva14

I remember my sister and I hearing him on I think it was an MTVU performance and we were tryna get out the house until we heard his voice and stopped in our tracks. Damn this boy is bad! Also, heard he came out yesterday, congrats man 😊👏👏👏

Akash Jb is
Akash Jb I would love to die by the angelic voice of Sam Smith.

Am I the only one who thinks Adele and Sam Smith would be a really good duet??
That would be fantastic! First that came to mind for me was Sara Bareilles.
her too!!!
I feel like their voices would be too alike, I mean he is known to be the male Adele (;
I so agree with you!!
This song brings so many emotions to surface. Gives me goosebumps. I could listen to it a dozen times in a row and it doesn't get any less beautiful.
thanks Sam for such a beautiful song. I buried my brother to this song. broke every body's heart.....
This song makes me think of my grandmother. She's turning 87 this year in May and she's forever complaining about how much pain she's in and how she doesn't want to live any more. This forever breaks my heart because I know she's old now and it's just a matter of time before she passes away. Aaaarg I don't think my heart will be able to take the news of her death, if there's one thing that I'm dreading in this world, it's losing my grandmother. That woman is my ENTIRE life!! 😭 I love you sooooo much granny, words fail me! ❤
I first saw and heard Sam Smith on SNL... now I am almost obsessed with his voice!! Can't get enough of Sam Smith!
I feel ya me too.....i love soul and he kills it....
Amazing singer....what a VOICE...:)) MELTING....
How does he not choke with emotion while singing this? I cry immediately
The Sam Smith that we all used to love.
It's sad how they transform the moment they sell their soul
Its so sad how he sold his soul to the devil and mcdonalds 😭 he was so angelic

Sam Smith is not radio materiel. The radio doesn't deserve him- he sings with an amazing passion and real soul. Every word he sings is one hundred times better than all that autotuned crap on the radio will ever be. He is truly inspiring.
How do you even get a voice like that
Born with that :D
I remember the feelings that got stirred up within me when I first listened to this song and I still get the same feeling every single time I listen to it. This always remind me of the painful unrequited love I experienced years ago. Listening to this song makes it look like it was just yesterday when my heart was irreparably broken.
this song.. forever in my heart. back when the song came out, i'd hear it with my friend who left the country, a girl i fell in love with but broke my heart, and one of my friends who betrayed me... things were calmer but now theyre no longer in my life. love to close my eyes to this song.
SAME HERE!!!!
I met this guy at work and we both fell in love with each other. I seriously thought I had finally found love and happiness but soon enough, it all came to an end. He was actually dating another girl. Now its just complicated because he says still has feelings for me. We have drifted apart since then but I miss him until now. This lyrics resonate so strongly. I can relate completely.
wow,..this is the first video i ever played back to back 20 times!!!! amazing vocals!!!!
Amazing Sam! One of the most beautiful voice I've ever heard in my life!!
I miss this Sam smith his voice is incredible
He's absolutely flawless, and it's frighting how perfect a person can be.
I've got tears in my eyes, Sam Smith is such a good singer.
My granny died last year and I've heard this song on repeat for days. This song is so touching when you've actually lost someone, it makes you understand the lyrics differently.
i get goosebumps. this song is so emotional. i love you sam smith :3
A thing like this is worth even more than just 4 Grammys.
he sings so effortlessly and its perfect holy.
and I'm here in 2021, absolutely timeless this is
This song played at my brothers funeral, everytime I hear it I can't help but cry. Such an amazing song and brings back so many memories
Every time I listen to your music I can not help but remember what my eldest brother [sadly passed now.], who introduced me to the world of music, told me: "Ever one is introduced to music in the womb, Your Mothers heartbeat. That's why the first musical instruments were forms of drums. A true artist's music will echo that beat." Thank you for sharing your Heart with me. A Fan
someone's singing hasn't given me chills since I first heard travis garland im so amazed
Your voice is so underrated & unmatched. I love you sam !!!
His voice.....goes right thru you. Amazing....
The whole song is stuck in my head
1,000 dislikes? RLLY?! He's such a beautifully talented man, luv u sam :).
Guess its because hes gay so they instantly dislike it :(
That's horrible people need to be respectful 😭😭😭😢😩
Sigo escuchándola y cada vez que lo hago me enamoro mas de esta canción, todas las canciones de Sam Smith tienen mucho aprecio para mí, esta es una de mis preferidas. Me encanta!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
