Juliëtte van Vliet They really are though. (At least the ones I know from his/her list.) Gonna test out if they are right about the knowing but not knowing the name thing sometime later..
I believe she singing about being a mother. She was 22 when she wrote this song. If she had a child, when her daughter turned 13 she'd be 35. Just something I noticed :)
I'm still looking for my daughter I had while I was in the Navy. She was put up for adoption while I was in training. This song makes my voice break and I tear up everytime.
Main difference is, Dillon had Hitler'd her baby. Liberal Agenda: Kill all the babies you want, they're not human. Republican Agenda: Yeaaaa... Murder is murder, and you will pay the consequences.

You know what the beauty of music is? That you can interpret it any way you want. Stop trying to prove to people the "true" meaning, and just be satisfied with the meaning YOU think is true.
I think you have a point here, about us interpreting music in our own ways and the beauty of it. However, Dillon clearly stated that this is about her miscarriage, something personal to her, and for you to make an interpretation of something so personal to someone would do that person a great disservice. That's like saying Van Gogh's Starry Night is just some over-rated piece of garbage when that art represented the feeling of isolation Van Gogh must have experienced as a struggling and unappreciated artist before and after he entered the asylum. I guess this is all just moral relativism though, I don't know it just seems that people feel too entitled with their "Freedom." What even is it.
Jolo .Pulido This is very true. But, what I was getting at is that people are either going to believe something or not. People want to relate music to themselves, even if that isn't was that song is actually about. There is no reason to get upset about it in the comment section of TH-cam.
Jolo .Pulido Artists do not have the ability to control the meaning of their work. A work of art exists apart from the creator, and the meaning, or lack of meaning, is determined by the product itself. The position that you are taking is referred to as intentional fallacy, or the fallacy of authorial intent, which has been an invalid form of critique since about the mid 1950s. I could wrap a toilet in a piece of cheese and say that it represents my heartache at the state of modern man, but my opinion would be irrelevant and the final meaning would be determined by the interpretation of the audience.
Do you even realise that you're technically contradicting yourself? " You know what the beauty of music is?" - "Stop trying to prove to people..." - "just be satisfied..." It's not a question of whether to be or not to be.
+Taylor Renee Well.. some people will always have and will always be thinking these childish thoughts.. We either ignor them or give them the attention they want.. i don't care what she sings about, she has this sweet pure voice i just fell in love with and this song makes me feel good that kind of way i want, and that is you know that cosy feeling that makes you all warm in your chest and you feel awesome.. QuQ
I'm a die hard metal fan, but this is pure talent, her voice is beautiful and she seems very talented, lyrics are pretty deep not like almost every pop average song now a days.. Cheers from Spain ^^
Me pasa lo mismo, el 90% de lo que escucho es metal sobretodo Deathcore y es curioso como algo tan suave me puede llegar tanto, se nota mucho donde hay dinero y donde hay talento, saludos desde España también ^^
I had my first miscarriage at 19, I found this song a few years later. It helps to listen to it every now and then. I cry every time, but it's a good, healing cry. Thank you Dillon.
This song has been on my music playlist for over a year, maybe two, but I am just now really listening to it. If this song is about her baby, it would make sense. Strongest taste, loudest drop, head is filled, the thought, unlocked - refers to her thinking about her baby as an a teen. She's imaging them together when they are older. Their ages 13 and 35 proves this point. She then proceeds to find a place for them to spend time alone. You set my heart on fire, is how she feels for her baby. "You turn my legs to spaghetti" is that nervous you feel when meeting someone for the first time and they enchant you. The bottom of a coal mine, is a reference to where she put her baby. The vent is a way for her baby to breath and reach her "just enough space for your hands in the inside. The prison is the place she's at or found for herself, where her baby can find her. If you go, please let me know - is her asking her baby to forgive her by meeting with her. The list of places she list off, she's saying it doesn't matter where her baby pick, where they meet.
I tought it was about Lolita, the Nabokov's book. You know, she was 13, he was 35. They'll must have to find a place to hide, because what they were doing it illegal. ' a cave or a shed a car or a bed a hole in the ground or a burial mound a bush or a tree or the aegean sea, will do for me' like the places they used to spend time together or having sex. But, you know, maybe it's just a HUGE coincidence :)
I lost my baby at around the same age (22) and I'll be 30 soon, so she would be thirteen when I'm thirty-five too. Everything in this song resonates so strongly with me and I don't see anything sinister in it at all. I think about my daughter every day and what she would have been like... To me, she's singing from a 'what might have been' angle. Some thoughts on the song from that angle: The "hiding" reference: Hiding her child wherever she can so no one ('nature', 'God'...) can ever take them away from her, as she's experienced the loss once before, and if thinks had been different, she would do her utmost to keep her child safe - the obsessive nature of the repetition suggests that the loss made her feel powerless as a mother and a guardian to her baby. The end one sort of confirms that for me: "A wishing well or a guarantee will do for me..." And also maybe when she had the miscarriage, she wondered if there was anything she could have done differently to save her baby's life. "Turn my legs into spaghetti": This made me smile, and makes me think of being weak with relief that her baby got the chance to grow up into a thirteen year old. She'd be so grateful in this alternative reality that her child survived, when she looks at them, it makes her feel light-headed :) And as someone else said, yes, I think when she sings about a 'cell', it's definitely a play on words; 'Prison Cell' and the correlation with loss and punishment = 'Human Cells\Her baby's life' - blaming herself and her own body for her miscarriage, maybe?
thanks! I have the same situation and your comment gave me many feelings, the touches you had really meaningful. I will be addicted to this song while I'm on this mood. `You set my heart on fire`
Your interpretation of and relation to the song is tragic,melancholic, heart felt,hauntingly beautiful and absolutely brilliant. I knew what the song was about in general but your explanation made me feel it and provoked exploration of my emotions while trying to find those feelings within myself even though I will never be able to experience that.I'm not a female yet you made me think deeply about that sense of loss,emptiness,and how even something that is beautiful and joyous can be ripped away from you in an instant totally devastating you and ripping your world apart. It made me think of the bond,connection, and endearment that a woman would experience even right after the conception and how substantially and profoundly that bond would grow over time. Your words provide insight and instill an unnatural empathy for the opposite gender. In the sense that even a man can take themselves into the depth and understanding of those emotions if they just try. You translated the lyrics in a way that defined the feeling of the metaphorical implications in the song, so instead of just hearing them with a basic and outlying understanding you made it so I could feel them which in turn gave the metaphors a much deeper meaning. The way you expressed personal connection inspires deep thought and practically beckons one to commiserate. So in ending this I say again beautiful and thank you. To all of those who Interpret this song as a comment to pedophilia you are stealing all my air and taking the space of someone with intelligence and worthy of existence. Lets play a game you hold your breathe for 10 minutes or so and then I will tell you what you win when the games over, hurry!!!! I'll time you. Maybe you could even put a plastic bag over your head so I know you won't try to cheat and then of course I may have to put some tape around the bottom so it doesn't fall off on you . :)
I wonder though if the wishing well part was more about her being given that opportunity to wish things were different and her baby was living and it would be so or if she cant have that even a guarantee that she would eventually get to see her child again someday would suffice.Almost pleading for someone to just tell her with all certainty that there is a heaven and her daughter will be there when she passes on and that alone would be enough to keep her going. I think when something traumatic like that happens it makes someone question faith overall and even if they don't believe in a higher power in the first place it makes them question faith even more. Also if you don't believe in gods you wish even more that there actually was some sort of higher power there to give you some real justifiable answers and give you some relief and peace of mind. In turn that just hurts you even more when you return to your original disbelief again and definitively realize more than before that there is no gods or peaceful places when you die and there's no one waiting for you.then sobering reality takes hopes place.
@@427_gouravbhaskara6 Oh here we go the gender identity police does it really matter whether she assumed gender or not that's not the topic of focus. She took time to creatively give her interpretations of the song in a relatively connected and heartfelt way and all you can do is ask a stupid fucking question. Man some people are so fucking annoying. How about just noticing and complimenting the good qualities of someones statements and stories instead of picking everyone comments apart. I don't know maybe its that you're too dumb to creatively offer your insight of a song in such a way.
I've always wandered around to this part around youtube, but I'm pretty sure this is one of my favorite songs I came across. she has one of those enchanting, charming voices. so lovely.

She is so much underrated. This song is freaking awesome, lyrics are so... Wow. It is wonderful how a woman can write such a beautiful song about such a weird and sad personal topic, her miscarriage. Probably the most touching song I've ever listened, she conveys her feelings right inside the notes. Once you understand the lyrics you necessarily have to turn on your brain and think.
I don't know if she meant to mindfuck people listening or something but the lyrics to this song are just.. Try imagining a man singing this out beside you at a children's playground "you'll be 13, i'll be 35" "going to find a place for us to hide" "be together but alone cos the need for IT has grown" "A car or a bed" "A bush or a tree" "I can say that you look pretty, you turn my legs into spaghetti"
I find it saddening when a woman has a miscarriage and if her writing a song is helping her feel better and not blame herself then that's amazing, I wouldn't have the strength to do that.
Samuel Ramos it’s not anyone’s fault. It is nature. Mostly a gene defect or developing defect and the embryo will stop growing. Rarely it is a fault in ‘the system’ such as a problem in mother blood, or auto immune disease. But next to nature, it is falling apart of the dream you were expecting. Incredibly painful and sad. 💔 I favourited this video years ago, but after having miscarried twice and listening to the lyrics this song touched my heart even deeper. 🙏🏼
I found this when I was 16 and this song only becomes more powerful to me the more I live and grow up. This song has helped me through a lot in life. Holy shit.
This is my first time ever hearing here and i think she sounds amazing. Such a muse. The pleasure in her voice and the meaning of the music. Its all perfect !
People who claim this is boring or lazy music and identify these adjectives with the indie genre have it severely wrong. On the surface we indie rockers are quiet, but that's a sophistication. You see paintings of emotion and not time spent over-producing them until they're unrecognisable. Think of minimalist tattoo's, i really identify with them, because they're smooth, sleek, elegant and not over stimulating. I enjoy the lyrics far more when i'm not trying to process every artificial sound thrown into a track. Taking the raw feeling with this song is what makes it valuable, you need to escape yourself and everything you know about life and just enjoy the slow, yet powerful music. Indie music is hated because it's seen as a modern version of hippie music, it's not about lying in the sun and sunglasses and drugs, to some maybe, but it can also represent the refined and mature qualities of life, and those that can just smile and be happy for experiencing a sense of another's sentiment and passion. I think 'indie' music is what it says on the tin. independent. It is for your benefit and to meet with an inner equilibrium of yourself and what you enjoy. So don't compare yourself with others and battle whether this is good or bad, but respect that music is personal and unrepresentative of stationary moods. You are an ever-changing organism, just roll with it :)
2 months ago now and I'm still in shock.. you were just beginning to start your journey my darling. I didn't even know you were blessing me with your very presence. Even with these heart wrenching dreams I have that remind me you never got the chance to be, its still so incredible to feel you near in dreamland. If that is where we must go to be together, I'll gladly come running, with a heart on fire to be with you. ♥
She had a miscarriage a while back, and that if her daughter were alive when she wrote that song then that's how old she'd be. "You'd be thirteen, I'd be thirty-five." some deep shit eh
“The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen, nor touched, but are felt in the heart." Love that voice , the lyrics so deep and that beautiful soul full of light ❤️💯
This song speaks about the miscarriage, if her baby had survived, he/she would be thirteen and dillon would be thirtyfive. And she tries to hold a unexisting memory of an unborn child. The cell she has found for this child is her own head, trying to make a prision for this never lived memory with her child, which she doesn't want to forget.
I remember the first time I saw this song on my TH-cam dash. I was listening to Daughter but I never actually listened to this because I thought it was boring. And then one day I decided to finally listen to it and goodamnit I fell in love with the song and her voice and I repeated it like five times. Never understimate a song because you find it boring. Give it a try because you might find the new song you love ❤
Tasteful voice Dillon has, crystal clear and unambiguous. And there is a hole of meaning the songs digs. I love this a thousand much. Singing it leaves a sweet taste in my mouth. :) Thanks for uploading.
This song makes me get teary eyed every time I hear it. It's like the stream of conscious of a mother proccessing her grief and need to protect someone who's already passed.
Remember listening to this song when i was like 14 or something... coming back after a few years later this still is so filled with emotions just as i remember ❤
Oh wow, it's been years since I last heard this song... Even though my music taste is not very much at home in pop, this song still leaves me with a certain warm feeling inside that I can't really explain ... It's a bit like nostalgia along with something else that I can't quite put into words.
Nisal Cottingham The negative meaning is paedophilia. The actual meaning is a miscarriage. The point of my comment was saying that the ambiguity of the song is where the beauty lies.
PPplubploy Yes, according to the comments in an interview she said this song is about her miscarriage and 13 is the age her son/daughter would be if they were still alive and she would be 35, hence thirteen thirty-five.
why she is not popular..she is just amazing ..that crisp in her voice and with an accent ...mesmerizing lyrics of happiness,sorrow and life...is so hard to not take notice
Jake Morrison its a bit further down in the comments, but basically she was pregnant and had a miscarriage. when her daughter turned 13, she would have been 35.
I was listening to this song on spotify, but i came here to text something. Im doing my homework during listening to music and i had something like i couldn't take my pen to hand and wrote in notebook becouse of this song. This music is so goooood and my body feels it. greetings from Poland :)
Jimson Jeez, did I ever say the original isn't fantastic? I said it gets amazing in a different way, I'm not trying to change the song. Lighten up, dude.
Saw this picture of an astonishingly and sorrowfully beautiful woman among the recommended videos. Clicked on it. Her voice is amazing, touching. This song made me cry. Ok, I am in love. After only one song.
I find myself coming back to this song, among others, when I am unhappy with some aspect of my life. This song doesn't necessarily remind me of a better time, but when I first heard it I was so tired of it all. I wonder why...*Edit Today is 19 Aug, 22. Here I am again. Work has been hard. I get very little satisfaction out of my job...and a girl that I clearly had a connection with is out of reach, due to me moving. It is the first time I've been sad to not be with a particular girl. I got a small smile out of the fact that she seemed sad I am leaving. Not because she is sad. But that it is proof that she actually cared. Although her sadness isn't worth it in the end. Amidst it all, this song is still a comfort. 25Nov2022. I have since moved halfway across the country and have found a new start in a new city, with an entirely new job. Thus far, this is what I needed...even though it was hard to let go.
28Feb2023. Here I am again...seeking comfort. What is wrong with this world where so many of us feel lost? I have been here for about 3 months. I find that every day is the same...Groundhog day. While I don't HATE it here...I miss where I left to come here. I had to move here for my job...I wish they had left me where I was. I miss my girl and I don't fit in here. Maybe in a few more months I will find my place more fitfully. I don't talk to anyone here once I leave work...
@@psychopompous3207Hey :) Hope things are looking brighter now for you :) A lot of things happen for a reason, be it just to be able to appreciate the better times even more once they arrive :) I wish you all the best
Been listening to this for 3 days straight. Only problem is can't sing along to it in public without feeling like a creep :D How can anyone hate this track? >:(
The beautiful thing about today is that you can search "What if I said that you look pretty you turn my legs into spaghetti" and find the song you're looking for it's not even the right lyrics

I feel she is comforting herself, telling her depressed younger self that she wishes she could protect her...
I believe she singing about being a mother. She was 22 when she wrote this song. If she had a child, when her daughter turned 13 she'd be 35. Just something I noticed :)
Trevin Wickstrom Both nice ideas, but Trevin is right. She said that in an interview :"( Having an abortion with 22 must be hard
Florian Elting
She didn't have an abortion, she lost the baby :'(
Florian Elting she had a miscarriage..
Hah thats the Word iwas searching for
I'm still looking for my daughter I had while I was in the Navy. She was put up for adoption while I was in training. This song makes my voice break and I tear up everytime.
I pray you find her stranger

Im real sorry that happened to you, I hope she gets back to you.

Strongest taste, loudest drop, head is filled, the thought, unlocked - refers to her thinking about her baby as an a teen. She's imaging them together when they are older. Their ages 13 and 35 proves this point. She then proceeds to find a place for them to spend time alone. You set my heart on fire, is how she feels for her baby. "You turn my legs to spaghetti" is that nervous you feel when meeting someone for the first time and they enchant you.
The bottom of a coal mine, is a reference to where she put her baby. The vent is a way for her baby to breath and reach her "just enough space for your hands in the inside.
The prison is the place she's at or found for herself, where her baby can find her.
If you go, please let me know - is her asking her baby to forgive her by meeting with her. The list of places she list off, she's saying it doesn't matter where her baby pick, where they meet.
Yurrah Al-Hadi Thanks.
Yurrah Al-Hadi After I thought this way too :)
I tought it was about Lolita, the Nabokov's book.
You know, she was 13, he was 35. They'll must have to find a place to hide, because what they were doing it illegal.
' a cave or a shed
a car or a bed
a hole in the ground
or a burial mound
a bush or a tree
or the aegean sea, will do for me'
like the places they used to spend time together or having sex. But, you know, maybe it's just a HUGE coincidence :)
Laura Sánchez I've never heard of that book so idk.
Laura Sánchez omg!!!!!! yes!!!
I lost my baby at around the same age (22) and I'll be 30 soon, so she would be thirteen when I'm thirty-five too.
Everything in this song resonates so strongly with me and I don't see anything sinister in it at all. I think about my daughter every day and what she would have been like...
To me, she's singing from a 'what might have been' angle.
Some thoughts on the song from that angle:
The "hiding" reference: Hiding her child wherever she can so no one ('nature', 'God'...) can ever take them away from her, as she's experienced the loss once before, and if thinks had been different, she would do her utmost to keep her child safe - the obsessive nature of the repetition suggests that the loss made her feel powerless as a mother and a guardian to her baby.
The end one sort of confirms that for me: "A wishing well or a guarantee will do for me..."
And also maybe when she had the miscarriage, she wondered if there was anything she could have done differently to save her baby's life.
"Turn my legs into spaghetti": This made me smile, and makes me think of being weak with relief that her baby got the chance to grow up into a thirteen year old. She'd be so grateful in this alternative reality that her child survived, when she looks at them, it makes her feel light-headed :)
And as someone else said, yes, I think when she sings about a 'cell', it's definitely a play on words; 'Prison Cell' and the correlation with loss and punishment = 'Human Cells\Her baby's life' - blaming herself and her own body for her miscarriage, maybe?
thanks! I have the same situation and your comment gave me many feelings, the touches you had really meaningful. I will be addicted to this song while I'm on this mood. `You set my heart on fire`
Your interpretation of and relation to the song is tragic,melancholic, heart felt,hauntingly beautiful and absolutely brilliant. I knew what the song was about in general but your explanation made me feel it and provoked exploration of my emotions while trying to find those feelings within myself even though I will never be able to experience that.I'm not a female yet you made me think deeply about that sense of loss,emptiness,and how even something that is beautiful and joyous can be ripped away from you in an instant totally devastating you and ripping your world apart. It made me think of the bond,connection, and endearment that a woman would experience even right after the conception and how substantially and profoundly that bond would grow over time. Your words provide insight and instill an unnatural empathy for the opposite gender. In the sense that even a man can take themselves into the depth and understanding of those emotions if they just try.
You translated the lyrics in a way that defined the feeling of the metaphorical implications in the song, so instead of just hearing them with a basic and outlying understanding you made it so I could feel them which in turn gave the metaphors a much deeper meaning. The way you expressed personal connection inspires deep thought and practically beckons one to commiserate. So in ending this I say again beautiful and thank you.
To all of those who Interpret this song as a comment to pedophilia you are stealing all my air and taking the space of someone with intelligence and worthy of existence. Lets play a game you hold your breathe for 10 minutes or so and then I will tell you what you win when the games over, hurry!!!! I'll time you. Maybe you could even put a plastic bag over your head so I know you won't try to cheat and then of course I may have to put some tape around the bottom so it doesn't fall off on you . :)
I wonder though if the wishing well part was more about her being given that opportunity to wish things were different and her baby was living and it would be so or if she cant have that even a guarantee that she would eventually get to see her child again someday would suffice.Almost pleading for someone to just tell her with all certainty that there is a heaven and her daughter will be there when she passes on and that alone would be enough to keep her going. I think when something traumatic like that happens it makes someone question faith overall and even if they don't believe in a higher power in the first place it makes them question faith even more. Also if you don't believe in gods you wish even more that there actually was some sort of higher power there to give you some real justifiable answers and give you some relief and peace of mind. In turn that just hurts you even more when you return to your original disbelief again and definitively realize more than before that there is no gods or peaceful places when you die and there's no one waiting for you.then sobering reality takes hopes place.
@@427_gouravbhaskara6 Oh here we go the gender identity police does it really matter whether she assumed gender or not that's not the topic of focus. She took time to creatively give her interpretations of the song in a relatively connected and heartfelt way and all you can do is ask a stupid fucking question. Man some people are so fucking annoying. How about just noticing and complimenting the good qualities of someones statements and stories instead of picking everyone comments apart. I don't know maybe its that you're too dumb to creatively offer your insight of a song in such a way.
i had gone trough this too and couldn’t express my feelings thank you for comment ❤️❤️
I’ve been searching for this song for so many years, never quite remembered the lyrics and today I found it!
Back here this 2023. Saw my old comment and only now remembering I stumbled into this song in the year 2015 lol.
Omg you too ?… 😅😅
Hey, are you still listening?
I've always wandered around to this part around youtube, but I'm pretty sure this is one of my favorite songs I came across. she has one of those enchanting, charming voices. so lovely.
“I can say that you look pretty, You turn my legs into spaghetti, You set my heart on fire”

You'd be thirteen
I'd be thirty-five
Gone to find a place for us to hide
Be together but alone
As the need for it has grown
You'd be thirteen
I'd be thirty-five
Gone to find a place for us to hide
Be together but alone
As the need for it has grown, yeah
A cave or a shed
A car or a bed
A hole in the ground
Or a burial mound
A bush or a tree
Or the Aegean sea will do for me
I can say that you look pretty
You turn my legs into spaghetti
You set my heart on fire
For you I found a vent
In the bottom of a coal mine
Just enough space for your hands in the inside
If you go
Do let me know
You'd be thirteen
I'd be thirty-five
Gone to find a place for us to hide
A den or a dessert
Perhaps an ink squirt
A cellar, a wishing well, a war
Or a guarantee will do for me
For you I found a cell
On the top floor of a prison
Just enough space for you to fit your feet in
If you go
Do let me know
For you I found a cell
On the top floor of a prison
Just enough space for you to fit your feet in
If you go
Please let me know
I come running with a heart on fire
I come running with a heart on fire
I come running with a heart on fire
I come running with a heart on fire
I come running with a heart on fire
I come running with a heart on fire
I come running with a heart on fire

Lyrics: Dillon de Byington, D. (2011)
Merci des paroles et pour toutes ces personnes qui mettent les paroles sur plein de chansons que j'écoute, et que je ne pense jamais à remercier... :)
The way she says "pretty" omg
She is so much underrated. This song is freaking awesome, lyrics are so... Wow. It is wonderful how a woman can write such a beautiful song about such a weird and sad personal topic, her miscarriage. Probably the most touching song I've ever listened, she conveys her feelings right inside the notes. Once you understand the lyrics you necessarily have to turn on your brain and think.
Underrated with 16+ million views?
I fucking love your profile pic :) Huge fan here too
Walter White
Yep, Tallest is a big inspiration :)
Andrea Bortolozzo This guy is a genius
Andrea Bortolozzo whats her full name, where is she from?!!
I just cannot cry even though it's the saddest song EVER
thirty-five*
it's not
hurt - johny cash, that is saddest for me
Tank Park Salute by Billy Bragg takes the cake for saddest song, imo.
+Pedro Marin i agree
la pub d'orange m'a fait redécouvrir cette chanson que j'écoutais y a 4 ans !!
Pareil, à chaque fois que j'entendais la pub je me disais bien que je connaissais cette chanson ^^'
Удивительная музыка
I don't know if she meant to mindfuck people listening or something but the lyrics to this song are just.. Try imagining a man singing this out beside you at a children's playground
"you'll be 13, i'll be 35"
"going to find a place for us to hide"
"be together but alone cos the need for IT has grown"
"A car or a bed"
"A bush or a tree"
"I can say that you look pretty, you turn my legs into spaghetti"
franklyn bush I was thinking the exact same thing.
This could totally be the "NAMBLA" theme song :)
franklyn bush are you serious? She is talking about her miscarriage!!
franklyn bush wtf?!
franklyn bush you're as dumb as a cork
franklyn bush SHUT UP and go out you fool
I find it saddening when a woman has a miscarriage and if her writing a song is helping her feel better and not blame herself then that's amazing, I wouldn't have the strength to do that.
Is not her fault
Is her uterus fault
Samuel Ramos it’s not anyone’s fault. It is nature. Mostly a gene defect or developing defect and the embryo will stop growing. Rarely it is a fault in ‘the system’ such as a problem in mother blood, or auto immune disease.
But next to nature, it is falling apart of the dream you were expecting. Incredibly painful and sad. 💔
I favourited this video years ago, but after having miscarried twice and listening to the lyrics this song touched my heart even deeper. 🙏🏼
@@cristianramos5947 I don't think telling someone "It's your uterus' fault" makes it better.
Shut up.🙄 Grow up....
Love this song. Was a part of my life. I adore to come back and listening it all over again ❤
The way she sings is absolutely amazing. I mean, her accent, how she pronounces her words... To me, it is the true beauty of language.
I love when I have music on Automatic like this...I love discovering new music, while wondering why I've never heard about these songs before. :)
✌yes ✌
Wow, I'm in love with her voice.
This is such a gorgeous piece of art - lyrics, rhythm, melody and it all beautifully coming together with her VOICE!
Exquisite voice✅
Lovely melody✅
Beautifully creative lyrics ✅
I can't stop coming back to this song
I love her voice.
can't explain how much times i replayed this song for the past week
This song rips my heart out with sorrow and yet I can’t stop listening.
welcome to the army of ghosts walking
I found this when I was 16 and this song only becomes more powerful to me the more I live and grow up. This song has helped me through a lot in life. Holy shit.
This is my first time ever hearing here and i think she sounds amazing. Such a muse. The pleasure in her voice and the meaning of the music. Its all perfect !
People who claim this is boring or lazy music and identify these adjectives with the indie genre have it severely wrong.
On the surface we indie rockers are quiet, but that's a sophistication. You see paintings of emotion and not time spent over-producing them until they're unrecognisable. Think of minimalist tattoo's, i really identify with them, because they're smooth, sleek, elegant and not over stimulating. I enjoy the lyrics far more when i'm not trying to process every artificial sound thrown into a track. Taking the raw feeling with this song is what makes it valuable, you need to escape yourself and everything you know about life and just enjoy the slow, yet powerful music. Indie music is hated because it's seen as a modern version of hippie music, it's not about lying in the sun and sunglasses and drugs, to some maybe, but it can also represent the refined and mature qualities of life, and those that can just smile and be happy for experiencing a sense of another's sentiment and passion. I think 'indie' music is what it says on the tin. independent. It is for your benefit and to meet with an inner equilibrium of yourself and what you enjoy. So don't compare yourself with others and battle whether this is good or bad, but respect that music is personal and unrepresentative of stationary moods. You are an ever-changing organism, just roll with it :)
muthoni muhoro Awesome way of describing the genre :)
+muthoni muhoro wow you totally changed my perspective on indie music. I'll definitely don't find it crap anymore
+muthoni muhoro indie = indenpendant = music produced independently from major commercial record labels or their subsidiaries. thats all it means.....
bobby smith
that's what indie music means. Indie rock/folk/pop are actually new genres
Nemm Damistriv Haha It was just a comment lol
2 months ago now and I'm still in shock.. you were just beginning to start your journey my darling. I didn't even know you were blessing me with your very presence. Even with these heart wrenching dreams I have that remind me you never got the chance to be, its still so incredible to feel you near in dreamland. If that is where we must go to be together, I'll gladly come running, with a heart on fire to be with you. ♥
Elle date et je la découvre seulement maintenant! Intemporelle cette chanson 🙏🏼
She had a miscarriage a while back, and that if her daughter were alive when she wrote that song then that's how old she'd be. "You'd be thirteen, I'd be thirty-five." some deep shit eh
wenny miao she is 29
So her daughter wouldn't be 13
I have a baby now, so i cannot avoid to cry while listening to this
Charlotte Nayrolles could have easily had a miscarriage at 16
that's why it's "I'd be"
thx for the context, it sounded kinda pedo without it
I love this song. It means many things to many people. She sings like a bluebird! Her voice is beautiful. The writing is outstanding
“The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen, nor touched, but are felt in the heart." Love that voice , the lyrics so deep and that beautiful soul full of light ❤️💯
❤️ totalmente apaixonada por essa música
+MonaMake Exactly
+MonaMake omg same
+MonaMake Difícil não ficar...
nvs que eu tbm to
+MonaMake n sai da cabeça
Just recently discovered this song and am in love. Her voice is so soothing and in a way inspirational. :)
This song speaks about the miscarriage, if her baby had survived, he/she would be thirteen and dillon would be thirtyfive.
And she tries to hold a unexisting memory of an unborn child. The cell she has found for this child is her own head, trying to make a prision for this never lived memory with her child, which she doesn't want to forget.
your text broke my heart....
My fav grown up song. Still favourite from the first time I heard it! 💖 Love ur voice dillon!
This song is part of my safe place since I was in high school ( 10 years ago) ❤
Almost 2 years on my Playlist... Love it like the first time I heard it
7 years now :)
that's how you recognize a good artist.
they don't just scribble some words on paper
they become the words, words that only the artist understands.
I remember the first time I saw this song on my TH-cam dash. I was listening to Daughter but I never actually listened to this because I thought it was boring.
And then one day I decided to finally listen to it and goodamnit I fell in love with the song and her voice and I repeated it like five times.
Never understimate a song because you find it boring. Give it a try because you might find the new song you love ❤
Tasteful voice Dillon has, crystal clear and unambiguous. And there is a hole of meaning the songs digs. I love this a thousand much. Singing it leaves a sweet taste in my mouth. :) Thanks for uploading.
Flawless and beautiful
This is my confort song when im suicidal and ive been coming back to it as the years has passed
Don't do it, man. Your life is worth living
This song makes me get teary eyed every time I hear it. It's like the stream of conscious of a mother proccessing her grief and need to protect someone who's already passed.
I only heard this a week ago on a mix compilation. I love it. that voice she's got to be an ANGEL........
Remember listening to this song when i was like 14 or something... coming back after a few years later this still is so filled with emotions just as i remember ❤
Beautiful how her music has meaning
This song has been in my playlist since 2014 ✌ one of my fave eversince 💕
Oh wow, it's been years since I last heard this song... Even though my music taste is not very much at home in pop, this song still leaves me with a certain warm feeling inside that I can't really explain ... It's a bit like nostalgia along with something else that I can't quite put into words.
Despite being able to seriously negatively interpret the meaning of this song - I think the ambiguity of the song is where the beauty is.
Agree. The mysteriousness of it is what makes it unique and it gives listeners some room for imagination and creativity.
What's that negative meaning?
upqsevenhundredhp Do you even listen to the lyrics lol?
upqsevenhundredhp It is about a miscarriage www.songlyrics.com/dillon/thirteen-thirtyfive-lyrics/
Nisal Cottingham The negative meaning is paedophilia. The actual meaning is a miscarriage. The point of my comment was saying that the ambiguity of the song is where the beauty lies.
Wow I'm crying I read the comments before I listened to the song, this is devastating :/
Btw she reminds me of Lykke Li :)
100fates That's the first thing I thought as soon I heard her voice.
Is it her real life story?
PPplubploy Yes, according to the comments in an interview she said this song is about her miscarriage and 13 is the age her son/daughter would be if they were still alive and she would be 35, hence thirteen thirty-five.
Wow, what an experience listening and feeling every lyric of this song. What a beautiful song, just simply amazing!
driving in the car, listening all these awesome audio and music makes me feel great and satisfied!
I sent a link to this song to my friends, but none of them liked it. this song is really unique
Wow last time I looked this song up it was in the low thousands
why she is not popular..she is just amazing ..that crisp in her voice and with an accent ...mesmerizing lyrics of happiness,sorrow and life...is so hard to not take notice
This is AWESOME! Well done Dillon! what a vocals👏👏👏
I want to choreograph a dance to this 😍
I was literally thinking the same thing before I saw this comment :)
Ikr! Like a contemporary dance 💪
Do it and post a vid
Please do it and post a video!!
Mila ARBIA ok!! :D
this song is sadder when you know the backstory. it makes me soooooooo sad.
what is it? please share :)
Jake Morrison its a bit further down in the comments, but basically she was pregnant and had a miscarriage. when her daughter turned 13, she would have been 35.
Bel Dagger That's not the official backstory, just an interpretation. :)
Caramel Fungus I think she mentioned something about it in an interview though.
Bel Dagger Which backstory?
i found this song when i was 13. as a 22 year old i listen to it so differently.
Dziękuje orange za tą piosenkę!
Just happened to find Dillon on accident.. I'm glad to say it happened.
I was listening to this song on spotify, but i came here to text something. Im doing my homework during listening to music and i had something like i couldn't take my pen to hand and wrote in notebook becouse of this song. This music is so goooood and my body feels it.
greetings from Poland :)
put it on speed 1,25. Gets amazing in a whole different way!
+KokkieSmilez internet not fast enough...
double the speed too (2.0)
ye
Just listen to it instead of wanting it to be different...
Jimson Jeez, did I ever say the original isn't fantastic? I said it gets amazing in a different way, I'm not trying to change the song. Lighten up, dude.
Saw this picture of an astonishingly and sorrowfully beautiful woman among the recommended videos. Clicked on it. Her voice is amazing, touching. This song made me cry. Ok, I am in love. After only one song.
I love her voice it’s so raspy 🥰🔥💯
This song reminds me of the song 'Porch' by Pearl Jam. I am liking this a lot.
her voice is so calming and beautiful
La pub orange qui régale tellement ! Merci à eux !
I find myself coming back to this song, among others, when I am unhappy with some aspect of my life. This song doesn't necessarily remind me of a better time, but when I first heard it I was so tired of it all. I wonder why...*Edit Today is 19 Aug, 22. Here I am again. Work has been hard. I get very little satisfaction out of my job...and a girl that I clearly had a connection with is out of reach, due to me moving. It is the first time I've been sad to not be with a particular girl. I got a small smile out of the fact that she seemed sad I am leaving. Not because she is sad. But that it is proof that she actually cared. Although her sadness isn't worth it in the end. Amidst it all, this song is still a comfort. 25Nov2022. I have since moved halfway across the country and have found a new start in a new city, with an entirely new job. Thus far, this is what I needed...even though it was hard to let go.
28Feb2023. Here I am again...seeking comfort. What is wrong with this world where so many of us feel lost? I have been here for about 3 months. I find that every day is the same...Groundhog day. While I don't HATE it here...I miss where I left to come here. I had to move here for my job...I wish they had left me where I was. I miss my girl and I don't fit in here. Maybe in a few more months I will find my place more fitfully. I don't talk to anyone here once I leave work...
@@psychopompous3207Hey :) Hope things are looking brighter now for you :) A lot of things happen for a reason, be it just to be able to appreciate the better times even more once they arrive :) I wish you all the best
Been listening to this for 3 days straight.
Only problem is can't sing along to it in public without feeling like a creep
:D
How can anyone hate this track? >:(
I loved this song some 10 years ago. I still love it now.
such a beautiful song from a harrowing experience. blessed voice.
Saw her at Fusion Festival 2016. She is even better when she sings live.
i bet this song was never intended to bo soooo popular. Thank you Dillon for sharing this song with us.
haven't listened to this song in ages and now I'm sent into nostalgia and crying. damn.
Love it more each time I listen to it.
Omg i listened to this 24/7 when i was younger
Here I am again.. ♡🕊
Every once in a while this song pops into my head
qui vient de la pub orange?
Moi 😁
Moi
🤚
moi, mais j’étais presque certain que c’était Selah Sue...
Moi aussi, mais j’aurais aimer connaître cette chanson autrement...
Her voice is wonderful
Everything in this song is just so WAOW !!
i love you so much Dillon, this song is perfect
The beautiful thing about today is that you can search "What if I said that you look pretty you turn my legs into spaghetti" and find the song you're looking for
it's not even the right lyrics
I'm crying my eyes out, this is so heartbreaking
Une superbe belle chanson merci beaucoup DILLON 😉🥰🥰 j aime énormément ton style et ta voix 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷 tu es trop mimi
finally youtube got it right... simply beautiful. ive never head her before, her voice brings a tear to my eye
Eu sempre volto aqui pra ouvir ❤️❤️❤️
