Steve here - this video was very tender for me because of the meaning behind it. Lewis Capaldi wrote it in order to emotionally process the death of his aunt who ended her own life. I have a family member who died the same way. He was suffering from such debilitating mental illness that I know he wasn’t in his right mind when he took his life, but like Lewis’ words say, I played the blame game. I blamed myself for not doing more, saying more, not being more aware. I blamed the darkness that is pervasive in some aspects of this world right now. I even blamed him. I felt like his poor choices had led to his challenges. But then one day as I was praying, my heart changed. I realized that maybe it was the other way around -- that his challenges had led to his poor choices instead. The blame, the anger, and even the pain started to melt into compassion. If you are struggling and considering suicide as an option to ease your pain or dispel your darkness, know that your presence is priceless -- worth infinitely more than your absence. Watch the sunrise every day you can and consider it a symbol of your total reset, a “do-over,” a second chance to start again. See it as light that breaks through the night. Yes, night will come again. And again. But so does the sunrise. It always will. And which one is more beautiful? More powerful? More present? More like who you really are inside? For those of you, like me, that have felt devastated by this loss and this confusion, there is still hope. Hope that one day all things will be made right. Hope that, as mental illness inhibitions somehow are stripped away in the next life, challenging barriers can crumble away too and allow for light to enter where darkness was before. There is hope for reconciliation, healing, and for love to completely smother self-loathing. I believe in second chances. And third and fourth and fifth. For everyone. That’s what I hope this instrumental version of this tune feels like to you. If you are hurting, wondering, blaming, searching, praying, hoping against hope, this song is for you.
This song is very emotional to me, especialy when I read your message. My sister have almost taken her own few years ago, but one of things that keeps her fighting with her hard life is your music guys, so I'm sending a huge thank you to both of you. You're giving hope and strenght to all of us
Thank you Isaac. You wouldn't believe the criticism I've received for the emotion too. But at the end of the day, we just have to be genuine and authentic I guess? People will always find something to criticize so we might as well be ourselves? ☺️ To me, music without emotion is like food without flavor.
@@thepianoguys The emotions you guys show while playing music really takes us to another level of enjoyment and feel for each of your songs. You guys are awesome 😍🤩
@@thepianoguys Steven whatever you do please please dont stop being you cause someone doesnt get the emotion thing. I totally love how you and Jon Play so keep doing what your doing! Dont Stop being you :) You Guys are Amazing and you Music and friendship are Powerful!
I'd like to address the often-overlooked adult male depression issue. As someone who has struggled with depression and some thoughts of suicide in the past it's really important that you realize as a dad, husband, father figure, etc., that you are every bit as susceptible to depression and mental health issues as anyone else. There is no shame in reaching out to someone you trust for help, in getting counseling, or being on medication - none of these things make you weak or "less of man" so to speak. For me my depression often comes out in frustration and anger and just wanting to shut down and avoid dealing with things. Often times we fall into the same traps our fathers might have - or maybe you come from a broken home without one at all - but we owe it to the people we love to get the help we need.
My husband suffered for ten years. I can’t tell you how many times I begged him to come home instead of the railroad tracks. Turned out, he was allergic to soy. He’s in control now, Praise God!
It takes so much strength and courage to face and fight depression and suicidal thoughts. To just hang on to that thread. My husband is the strongest man I know. Almost lost him 2019 but he regrouped and is fighting again.
My husband also deals with depression... there is so much pressure on him, all his young children look to him with such trust and love... not realizing the stress that is on the back that they like to ride as a horsey when he gets home. We have also noticed triggers for his depression aswell. SOY, ARTIFICIAL FOOD COLORING, and LACK OF SUNLIGHT... getting him out in nature helps too. if we watch those, and of course I'm there for him, he does a lot better.
Adult male depression person here. Anxiety, too. I just posted a bit about my story above, advocating for compassion for others, as well as compassion for self.
I've been listening to Piano Guys since I was a kid, and now I've grown up listening to their songs. Every time I go back and listen, it's so nostalgic - like visiting an old friend. I know my own music has been influenced by their style at least to some degree. Thanks for what you do!
I suffered from a deep depression 15 years ago when my middle son was born. During that time a precious soul named Mary told me if I encourage others that I will be encouraged. So I've taken it to heart and any time that I feel a little down, I encourage the closest person to me. Encouragement is a gift that gives both ways and just keeps on giving. You can simply encourage someone with just a simple smile. Smile at someone today and just see how it makes you feel😁
You literally uploaded this at the time I needed it the most 🥺 My girlfriend and I have been through a whole lot together, and this past Sunday was the day that she decided to break up with me for the last time. I was struggling to figure everything out for the longest time, and these past few days just haven’t been the same without her. I can’t thank you enough for helping me through the process with this song 🙏🙏🙏
I've struggled with depression, suicide, and anxiety for 15 years. I'm only still here by the grace of God and reminding myself daily that He created me for a reason, I'm a part of His big story, and that though I experience these hardships that all can't compare to what is in store for His children in Heaven....and that Heaven can start now by knowing Jesus❤
@@rachelgoss2468More in love with Jesus than I knew was possible and so humbled and grateful for this journey called life that has joyous highs because of His love and comforted sorrows because of His compassion🙏🫶❤️
As a pianist with depression and anxiety, I really appreciate the sentiment and message of this. You guys are awesome. Depression feels like a parasite, slowly draining you to the point of nothing left to give. Anxiety makes the depression worse, depression makes the anxiety worse. So for people who suffer from them, these small moments of visibility and being suspended in time by gorgeous music feels like a much needed vacation. Thank you.
I'm fighting the same war that you are, and also, I take shelter in the piano and in music, like you said, these moments listening to this beautiful music are like a vacation, a moment when our minds take a brake from the battle and ir feels so good that words cannot really describe the feeling.
As a suicide survivor, the demons of depression and anxiety can be overwhelming. But if you stay, even for a moment longer, you will find your "semicolon" that connects you to the next part of living. Don't be afraid to be vulnerable and talk to those you love about what is going on inside. Get professional help. If you don't jive with one therapist, find another. The trial and error sucks, not going to lie, but when you find the right combination of support, you will find hope. And that is what keeps us all going...
No one knows the pain other people carry. Suicide has touched my family , too. A dear friend, battling cancer was ready to end the pain and we texted all night. He died naturally a few months later. I knew he passed because the world was suddenly empty. Our spirits, our souls are our greatest gifts from God. Treat others well, listen to them and share God’s Grace. Bravissimo Steve & Jon! Thank you Piano Guys 💜
This is a beautiful cover of a beautiful song. Watching Jon play piano is honestly one of my favorite things in the entire world. The way he feels the music, the way he interacts with the keys. He's a song all by himself.
I love the fact that the Piano Guys pointed out in the description that this isn’t a typical love song, since most people think it is. But “Before you go” is a beautiful work of art that actually was dedicated to Lewis Capaldi’s aunt who took her own life. 💙
I always love Cello, the heavy tone strings my heart into the flow of emotion, piano, that's my spirit, thanks so much for both your performance which makes my lonely night into a romance.
I have screamed and cried so many times to Lewis’s song. It hits too close, and holds too many bad memories. But this one, makes it so beautiful and gives it a kind of peace. It’s calming and soothing
For anyone affected by suicide or suicidality- We’re here for you. It gets so much better over time and you begin to understand that there is a reason for everything- as stupid as that probably sounds right now. It helps to understand that they were in a really dark place and it will NEVER be your fault. It’s not their fault either, however. Healing takes time- for them and for you.
Depression and anxiety make you feel like you're all alone and no one will understand what you're going through. But in my experience, when you open up about your trials, a lot of people will share similar experiences and tell you they understand. My best semester at college was with three roommates who were struggling in one way or another. We knew each other's issues and we supported each other. And even if you can't find anyone that understands, there is One who went through it all and does understand!
For many years now I have not listened to the radio in my car, only music on a USB flash drive. I update many things from time to time. And only on the fingers of one hand can one count the performers whom I do not erase. Among them are you guys. You are a miracle of nature! Listening to you, in addition to pleasure, you often think: Is this how I live? What can be done to improve this world? I'm 61, I know what I'm talking about .... Greetings from Russia, Rostov-on-Don! )))
As someone who struggles with mental health, I can tell you right now that it is very real and my heart goes out to those who have similar struggles. I love your cover of this beautiful song by Lewis Capaldi, there is so much power and feeling behind it! I completely agree that no matter how dark life is, the sun WILL rise again even when it seems impossible. And our struggles turn us exactly into who we are supposed to be! So beautifully done!!!
Once again, you have created an inspiring 4 minute experience. I love the way your music and words teach life lessons and provide an avenue to contemplate and reflect. Thanks Jon, Steven, Al, Paul, and all your supporting cast!
I have two family members who took their own lives as well as friends and family friends. I also have a friend who attempted it, but the gun broke, making him rethink his choice. Depression is nothing new for me. Lots of people I care about have suffered from it...as have I. This last year especially I've experienced it unlike ever before. The gospel is the only light I see when I'm in a deep, dark place, and your music helps that light shine brighter and give if more warmth! Thank you for your music and thank you for playing this song! I believe strongly that one of the best ways to touch lives is through music.
I’ve been listening to your music for 9 years since I was 14. It just speaks to me and this cover does especially. I lost my sister suicide in 2018, it was devastating and so painful to experience. The stages of grief were so difficult. Your music has always spoken to me and inspired me so much. I’m so grateful to you guys, you have no idea how much you have helped me throughout my entire life. I hope you guys continue to make music forever
Steve, If you see this. I am thankful for you. I watched your "Cello Wars" video and decided I wanted to play music like you. I picked up the cello around the beginning of 4th grade (put that in perspective, I am heading into junior year of High School), and have wanted to play music like you. You have been such an inspiration to me and many other cellists, even extending to the point where my great grandmother asked me to play your arrangement of "God Be With You Till We Meet Again" at her funeral. Thank you Steve for bringing this wonderful instrument into my life and it becoming one of the biggest parts of my life. Thank you, Steve!
My sweet daughter suffers from depression and anxiety...and your music is so comforting and soothing....for both her and myself. I am a believer in Christ and found a new book a few months ago that has also been a comfort...it's soo hard as a parent to see your child suffer and often don't know how to help. The book is titled..Praying the scriptures over your adult children. It is truly a wonderful book. And to those who are experiencing this in your own lives...I lift you in prayer right now....God knows exactly what you need...He has not forgotten you. And I'm trusting him to meet your needs....both great and small.🙏🙏🙏🙏💕💕💕💕
I normally don‘t like it when musicians try to play music, that was originally written for a singer. But the way you guys play it, i feel like i can hear lewis capaldi himself. Its really incredible, thanks for making these amazing videos with so much meaning behind them, and sharing it with us. Sending all the love to you and your familys ❤️
"I used to think that the worst thing in life was to end up alone. It's not. The worst thing in life is to end up with people who make you feel alone." Robin Williams
I put off listening to this song, but decided to finally give in and listen to it today. My 18-year-old daughter, Britnee, loved this song. I would turn the station when it came on the radio because it is so sad. I remember a little while before Britnee unexpectedly passed away last year after a surgery in SLC, that this song came on and Britnee was in the car with me. I said I didn't want to listen to it because it's sad and she looked sad at my comment. I didn't know then that she only had a few months left to live, but she knew. She knew for most of her life that she wasn't meant for this earth, but she couldn't tell me that. She is a pure soul and is busy working on the other side with her Savior and family members who have gone before. This song always makes me think of her. She could play anything on the piano and often played Piano Guys music. I miss hearing her play, but she left us many videos of her playing, and for that I'm grateful. Thank you Steve and Jon for this beautiful rendition.
Shauna - thank you for sharing Britnee’s story with us. What an angelic young woman. And now a true angel. So honored our music is part of her special and very purposeful life.
Eure Musik kommt direkt ausdem Herzen, wenn ihr eure Instrumente mit soviel Liebe und Hingabe spielt, und das macht euch so einzigartig. Man kann von den schlimmsten Zeiten zu den allerbesten im Leben gehen, wenn man diesen 3 Regeln folgt: 1. Aufgeben ist keine Option. Niemals 2. Glaube immer an dich selbst 3.Verliere niemals die Hoffnung. Nichts ist permanent, auch eure Sorgen und die schweren Zeiten nicht. Veränderung ist eine Konstante. Gebt nicht auf, geht weiter. Ihr schafft das auch noch. Es wird alles besser werden.
It took my breath away when I heard this version for the first time, it's so beautiful that I can listen to it over and over again and it's a song I love so much in its own right... Thank you so much for all this wonderful content.☺
My daughter was hospitalized several years ago at 15 for suicide attempts. I wish she knew every second of every day, how special she is and how big of a hole she would leave if she took her life. If you are struggling, I know you feel like there is no way to get out of pain and hurt, but please, you are special and so loved by so so many.
I love that this video showed light, water and mountain heights. Depression brings one down and can cloud vision and make one feel dried up and alone. Having lost loved ones to depression, and knowing what it feels like personally, having the ability to rise above and see life in a new perspective and clearer light helps. I hope we can all help others see how valuable they are and how loved. We need each other! Thank you for sharing this wonderful message and beautiful music!!
Steve, Thank you for sharing what you have personally been through. I know too many people who have passed away due to depression and suicide. Taking the time to just talk to people and listen can really help someone know that we care about them. Sending hugs and prayers to everyone who is struggling with their journey in life. Stay strong and don't be afraid to ask for help!! 💚
My mother was a huge supporter of your work. She would listen to your music daily and look for every CD she could get her hands on. Unfortunately, I lost her in 2018 to cancer. Continuing to listen to your music and remember how much she loved it is a way to keep her close. And this song has particular meaning to me as I have struggled with my mental health since her passing, and even before. It's been a constant trial just to get through each day. Music is something I have turned to in these past years. And even if these songs are new covers, it still helps me to remember my mother. Thank you for always being there, even if you don't know it.
Вот уже много лет не слушаю радио в своей машине, только музыка на флешке. Многие вещи периодически обновляю. И лишь по пальцам одной руки можно сосчитать исполнителей, которых не стираю. В числе их - и вы, ребята. Вы- чудо природы! Слушая вас, помимо наслаждения, часто задумываешься: А так ли я живу? Что сделать, чтобы улучшить этот мир? Мне 61 , я знаю, о чём говорю.... Привет из России, Ростов на Дону! )))
I have been fighting depression and anxiety for years. In my darkest moments it is God’s love and purpose for my life that keeps me going. I may not understand why I’m going through the challenges that face me, but I do know that God put me here for a reason and that is to help others that are hurting too. You are a blessing for others even if you don’t realize it. No matter how dark it gets, hang in there and know God will get you through! 💐
I often have panic attacks and often have depression, some days I have to just take baby steps and remind myself that the world doesn't revolve around me. There are many options for self care , talking, listen to relaxing music, are big ones. Look for something to do that you can accomplish something. Something to share and look back on
Everytime I play the piano, I picture myself in Jon's place and the cello and other background music fills my mind....this song is definitely worth your imagination
I do get depressed and overwhelmed with life at times, but your music is soothing and uplifting at the same time. I listen to it, close my eyes, and my mood seems to lift. Thank you so much!!!
You couldn't know how my day has been. You couldn't know what my life has become. But this song, and the text that came with it made a difference today for me. Hop on. Struggle on. Never Give Up. We are with you. Keep fighting.
I’ve dealt with depression, mental illness, suicidal thoughts beginning of 7th grade and it’s gotten worse over the years. I’m still learning to control my thoughts and get out of those deep moments.
I didn’t know this song and it had me in tears…I’m sure I’ll be sobbing once I know the lyrics. You two put emotions into wordless music like no other musicians I’ve ever heard. I’ve been to two concerts and will buy tickets every time you come to the Chicago area!
I have in the recent past dealt with depression and thoughts of suicide but as this quote that hit me one day goes"Sometimes the strongest thing you can do is admit you are weak and ask for help". There are just not enough words to describe how much each person is loved and the amazing things you will go on to accomplish. God has a special plan for each us and there is more to your story
Your music has saved me. In times of such pain and despair, your music has carried me through when nothing else could. It brings so much joy to me. Thank you ❤️
You know those times when there's just no way to describe what you're hearing in words? Yeah, this is one of those times. This sounds absolutely BEAUTIFUL!
Music has been one of biggest sources of inviting peace and calming uncertainty in my life. I believe God uses music as therapy to heal everyday confusion and deeper soul rending depression and anxiety. This song is evidence of that. Thank you!!
Such a beautiful song ❤️ I've dealt with depression (and anxiety) on and off through my life, and it's been a lot worse the last couple years. I'm thankful for God's presence in my life that has helped me to overcome my challenges! I'm doing much better now, and wish I could just let everyone out there know that there will come a day when it gets better. It might be a long time, but you'll get there if you keep holding on. Jesus loves you so much and He's got great things planned for your life 💕
I am so grateful for the power of music!! Having major anxiety and depression myself I can tell you now that it has saved my life more than once! I also work as a nurse and use it to help calm my patients. Thank you Piano guys and thank you Jon for inspiring me to compose my own music.
I listen to this everyday , as a intermediate muscian i always think we practice our instruments everyday but we dont get medals or cerficates in school but i am soo lucky to be a muscian as i can touch peoples hearts and give the the best music i can ever produce and even as i grow old i can still play it for all my life , i am soo thankful I want to be like you Steve ❤ With lots of love From my young boy somewhere around the world ❤
Oh, Piano Guys. I've been here from the beginning and your music always fills me up. Thank you for sharing so much light! And to anyone who's battling anything hard: loss of a loved one, mental illness, a difficult breakup - so many hard things! It can get better! Just don't quit. Life cannot get better if you take an early exit. Sure things can get worse as well, but extinguishing your life is not the answer. We all have personal growth to do and light to share. Stay. Look outward. There are people who need the unique gifts you have to offer.
I went through a very tough battle with depression when I was medically forced to retire. I didn’t know who I was or what I was supposed to do. I was lost. I had to find a new identity all while still dealing with heavy medical issues. I was all alone all my friends were teachers so therefore they were working. It took about 5 years to fully accept my new lot in life and move on. It still creeps in but not as bad. Meds help.
I suffered from depression for several years. Sometime it felt like nothing could stop the pain. But no matter how bad it got or how deep of a pit I felt like I was in, listening to music like this always seemed to make all the pain disappear for just a few minutes. Thank you guys! You've touched far more lives than you know.
This video absolutely moves me. My sister committed suicide. And a friend of my sisters son committed suicide. Mental illness runs deep in my family. I have ptsd, with severe depression. Your music lifts me... all of it. Thank you for these gifts.
This music is more than just chords and notes played together, it is a living thing that is beautifully portrayed by you guys. It is life changing music you make here. I love it so much ❤️.
thank you for giving us this to us. this song pulled me out of my darkest days when I felt myself sinking again and wanting to quit everything. I've been suicidal and depressed for 6 years. your music is one of the reason I feel hopeful for the future. thank you from the bottom of my heart.
My brother just got out of a psychiatric ward where he battled thoughts of suicide I’m so glad of his honesty for letting us know he needed help! I am so incredibly grateful to have my little brother in this life!
Music is a way of expression and I can feel every note has more power than a freight train. Thank you guys so much. You may not know this but you've been there through my exams, my stress, and have been my inspiration. This song means a lot to me as well... Thank you guys for everything.
I love the look of joy that they both have on their faces as they play. It makes me happy that they are able to do something they love and are also able to bring joy to others. ❤️
Love the video, the music and your message. My son is 21 now, had always been an outgoing well-liked kid but had self esteem issues no one knew about. After taking a bunch of pills one day he opened up about feelings of hopelessness and suicide. I thank God every day we did not lose him, because it’s true we never know what someone else is going though. Life is precious. We are all precious. Be kind.
A good friend of mine quotes that and claims that Gordon B. Hinckley said that. He might have been quoting someone else, I'm not sure, but he was known to have said it.
_This is the perfect 🤩 time for TH-cam/Google to finally work - “Notification” of one of my lifelong favorite 🎶 musical teams! Eight years…Eight years of being uplifted by their God-given talent and passion to bring a smile, a loving memory…the Piano Guys! In this time of civil chaos, spiritual attacks it’s good to know that Love still abounds for us, through Him_
My junior year of high school, I lost an old childhood friend to suicide. It shattered my world, and the world of a lot of my classmates and friends. Early June would have been her 24th birthday. I too was struggling with depression and suicidal thoughts at the time of her passing, and your music helped me through some of my darkest moments. Now, I am in a much better mental state, I am a manager for a great company, and I'm making my own way and doing things on my own, through my own strength. I still have hard days, but I have lots of friends and family to help me through. It might not seem like it now, but it does get better. It takes time. But it gets better. It's gonna be okay.
I noticed how Steve was gruff while smiling as hard as he could. It gave me the sense that life was being extremely hard for the character that he was portraying, but that this character was choosing to smile, anyway. It was a form of courage on that character's part. Now that I have read the story behind the song as well as Steve's experience, it makes more sense. Thank you for doing this so sensitively.
I am 42, a strong believer in Christ and the Bible but have still experienced anxiety, fear and panic attacks. Going thru therapy helping me to overcome these things and face them head on rather than just praying it away. You should absolutely not feel guilt or that there is something wrong with you for asking for help! I had asked God and pastors and fellow Christians for help countless times but it wasn’t until I devoted myself to working thru things with a therapist that I finally received the help and healing I so desperately needed! Devote yourself to working Through it not getting rid of it!
Everyone has pain in their lives. Some have so much pain that they cannot handle. You are not alone. Friends, family, professionals are there for you. And God is by your side no matter what you may think. Reach out for help. I have a friend whose adult son recently committed suicide. My heart grieves for her and the family.
I've dealt with depression and anxiety most of my life. Came close a few times but I've also noticed that each time music has saved me. The emotions, the lyrics helped me see past the darkness and remind me that these are just moments..ones I could fight my way through. Life gets tough and we aren't meant to go at it alone no matter what the depression says to us. It's okay to not be okay, just know it will.
Piano guys you’re amazing that sounds so beautiful you at the practice so well it’s just beautiful and lovely and your music how do you guys play music is beautiful it’s so special and wonderful and magical and it’s just incredible I love him in the music that you guys create is gorgeous and TH-cam to do that to listen to the beautiful music you piano guys create with a beautiful cello and the beautiful piano playing that gorgeous music it’s just it’s mind blowing and it’s just beautiful and I love that song by Lewis Capaldi it’s a beautiful song and then when he sings it was gorgeous accent I think it’s beautiful and you guys playing that was it who is this is it’s beautiful and it’s wonderful and lovely and it’s amazing so a great job well done piano guys
Wish I were able to play violin, harp or bagpipes when younger. So thankful you were able to. Amazing music. Such precision, talent and creative nature views. 🤗👏
You gentlemen are true inspirations. You helped me get through the loss of my fiancée 5 1/2 years ago… I would go to the outdoor rink every Sunday and skate for an hour listening to all of your music as I was a figure skater n you helped me heal in ways that I cannot explain so thank you from the bottom of my heart. I listen to your music still all the time and love you guys! 🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️🇨🇦
I was just in Chestertown for a visit and at the hotel I was staying at they played your music!! In particularly your Bach rendition. It was perfect because it was about to be sunset so set the mood perfectly. I absolutely love you guys and your music. I will try my hardest to attend one of your live concerts!! 💗💗💗💗
I love this song anyway and then you guys take it and make it even more beautiful as always. Your music has been a huge comfort to me through the last few months which have been pretty tough. Thank you for what you do, guys. Your work is amazing!
Aww, thank you so much for the love and support you’ve been showing over the years, I hope you keep listening and enjoying my music, and where're you from?
Thank you, so much for posting this, I needed this so much. I have a loved one who took his life 5 years ago. It never stops hurting, but you learn how to handle it better. I also was able to find the strength from our Heavenly Father, our Savior Jesus Christ and the gospel. Without the comfort from those, it would have been so much harder losing him. This was so beautiful, thank you!
I want to say to "The Piano Guys," that your Music always helps me, emotionally and spiritually ! Each time that I listen to your songs, I receive a sense of strength and hope. I am a Music Teacher; & I appreciate beautiful talent that is being used to help encourage many people. May The Lord Continue to Bless You, so You can Bless Us ! From: Darla K. Hill
Hi, The Piano Guys. I used to listen to your music everyday 6-7 years ago, and just rediscovered your channel. Your music had inspired me as a violinist and seeing the joy you continue to play with today made my day. Hope that you have been well all these years!
Steve here - this video was very tender for me because of the meaning behind it. Lewis Capaldi wrote it in order to emotionally process the death of his aunt who ended her own life. I have a family member who died the same way. He was suffering from such debilitating mental illness that I know he wasn’t in his right mind when he took his life, but like Lewis’ words say, I played the blame game. I blamed myself for not doing more, saying more, not being more aware. I blamed the darkness that is pervasive in some aspects of this world right now. I even blamed him. I felt like his poor choices had led to his challenges. But then one day as I was praying, my heart changed. I realized that maybe it was the other way around -- that his challenges had led to his poor choices instead. The blame, the anger, and even the pain started to melt into compassion. If you are struggling and considering suicide as an option to ease your pain or dispel your darkness, know that your presence is priceless -- worth infinitely more than your absence. Watch the sunrise every day you can and consider it a symbol of your total reset, a “do-over,” a second chance to start again. See it as light that breaks through the night. Yes, night will come again. And again. But so does the sunrise. It always will. And which one is more beautiful? More powerful? More present? More like who you really are inside? For those of you, like me, that have felt devastated by this loss and this confusion, there is still hope. Hope that one day all things will be made right. Hope that, as mental illness inhibitions somehow are stripped away in the next life, challenging barriers can crumble away too and allow for light to enter where darkness was before. There is hope for reconciliation, healing, and for love to completely smother self-loathing. I believe in second chances. And third and fourth and fifth. For everyone. That’s what I hope this instrumental version of this tune feels like to you. If you are hurting, wondering, blaming, searching, praying, hoping against hope, this song is for you.
I am sending a hug to you, Steve, thank you💓
God bless you guys. And thanks for sharing this experience and these words of wisdom.
This song is very emotional to me, especialy when I read your message.
My sister have almost taken her own few years ago, but one of things that keeps her fighting with her hard life is your music guys, so I'm sending a huge thank you to both of you.
You're giving hope and strenght to all of us
😍😍
I am rooting for you , hopping that everything will be beautiful again like your music💜🥰
I have anxiety and when I get anxiety attacks or panic attacks, your music is my go to
It helps me with my anxiety too
Same here …. I usually listen to them on my way to work to help me ease into my day.
Thank you for your courage and strength! I'm so happy our music gets to be part of your battle. I'm with you.
I have anxiety attacks too so you aren’t alone
I usually listen to them when I write in my journal, it helps my thoughts a feelings flow onto the paper
Everyone is fighting a battle that you don't see. So be kind, judge slowly, and always offer a helping hand.
Definitely
Found this touching 😀
Well, great wisdom here, thanks for sharing!
For sure!
Iam luck save aerth every weekanonce togethere
I love watching you guys play because you actually show the emotions you feel when you play! That's how music should always be played 😊
Very true . That what makes me enjoy the music more. I love watching their expressions.
Thank you Isaac. You wouldn't believe the criticism I've received for the emotion too. But at the end of the day, we just have to be genuine and authentic I guess? People will always find something to criticize so we might as well be ourselves? ☺️ To me, music without emotion is like food without flavor.
@@thepianoguys The emotions you guys show while playing music really takes us to another level of enjoyment and feel for each of your songs. You guys are awesome 😍🤩
@@thepianoguys absolutely. Music has a power over the mind that most people don't know about. It can be used for good and bad.
@@thepianoguys Steven whatever you do please please dont stop being you cause someone doesnt get the emotion thing. I totally love how you and Jon Play so keep doing what your doing! Dont Stop being you :) You Guys are Amazing and you Music and friendship are Powerful!
I'd like to address the often-overlooked adult male depression issue. As someone who has struggled with depression and some thoughts of suicide in the past it's really important that you realize as a dad, husband, father figure, etc., that you are every bit as susceptible to depression and mental health issues as anyone else.
There is no shame in reaching out to someone you trust for help, in getting counseling, or being on medication - none of these things make you weak or "less of man" so to speak.
For me my depression often comes out in frustration and anger and just wanting to shut down and avoid dealing with things.
Often times we fall into the same traps our fathers might have - or maybe you come from a broken home without one at all - but we owe it to the people we love to get the help we need.
My husband suffered for ten years. I can’t tell you how many times I begged him to come home instead of the railroad tracks. Turned out, he was allergic to soy. He’s in control now, Praise God!
And people would much rather you reach out for help than lose you.
It takes so much strength and courage to face and fight depression and suicidal thoughts. To just hang on to that thread. My husband is the strongest man I know. Almost lost him 2019 but he regrouped and is fighting again.
My husband also deals with depression... there is so much pressure on him, all his young children look to him with such trust and love... not realizing the stress that is on the back that they like to ride as a horsey when he gets home.
We have also noticed triggers for his depression aswell. SOY, ARTIFICIAL FOOD COLORING, and LACK OF SUNLIGHT... getting him out in nature helps too.
if we watch those, and of course I'm there for him, he does a lot better.
Adult male depression person here. Anxiety, too. I just posted a bit about my story above, advocating for compassion for others, as well as compassion for self.
I've been listening to Piano Guys since I was a kid, and now I've grown up listening to their songs. Every time I go back and listen, it's so nostalgic - like visiting an old friend. I know my own music has been influenced by their style at least to some degree. Thanks for what you do!
Aw, thanks so much for sharing the journey!
@@thepianoguys I've been listening to you guys for at least five years now
I know! I noticed that everyone’s gotten older and I realized… I have too… we are all subjects to the passing of time
same i wanna cry
Real Fact: Every single one of ya'll agreed that Capaldi by Piano Guysmade our day Exquisite:
Awwww!! 🥰
I suffered from a deep depression 15 years ago when my middle son was born. During that time a precious soul named Mary told me if I encourage others that I will be encouraged. So I've taken it to heart and any time that I feel a little down, I encourage the closest person to me. Encouragement is a gift that gives both ways and just keeps on giving. You can simply encourage someone with just a simple smile. Smile at someone today and just see how it makes you feel😁
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
You literally uploaded this at the time I needed it the most 🥺 My girlfriend and I have been through a whole lot together, and this past Sunday was the day that she decided to break up with me for the last time. I was struggling to figure everything out for the longest time, and these past few days just haven’t been the same without her. I can’t thank you enough for helping me through the process with this song 🙏🙏🙏
♥️♥️♥️
I've struggled with depression, suicide, and anxiety for 15 years. I'm only still here by the grace of God and reminding myself daily that He created me for a reason, I'm a part of His big story, and that though I experience these hardships that all can't compare to what is in store for His children in Heaven....and that Heaven can start now by knowing Jesus❤
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
💙💙💙
I agree. Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ love you beyond any understanding! And how are you doing now?
@@rachelgoss2468More in love with Jesus than I knew was possible and so humbled and grateful for this journey called life that has joyous highs because of His love and comforted sorrows because of His compassion🙏🫶❤️
Wise words there ❤️
There’s a special place the Piano Guys take me no matter where I am, Afghanistan to Aruba and everywhere in between.
God Bless, TPG. You’re loved.
Please keep your hands and arms inside the vehicle at all times...
"Know that your presence is priceless -- worth infinitely more than your absence."
Thank you for this message.
As a pianist with depression and anxiety, I really appreciate the sentiment and message of this. You guys are awesome. Depression feels like a parasite, slowly draining you to the point of nothing left to give. Anxiety makes the depression worse, depression makes the anxiety worse. So for people who suffer from them, these small moments of visibility and being suspended in time by gorgeous music feels like a much needed vacation. Thank you.
I'm fighting the same war that you are, and also, I take shelter in the piano and in music, like you said, these moments listening to this beautiful music are like a vacation, a moment when our minds take a brake from the battle and ir feels so good that words cannot really describe the feeling.
read the bible (new testament) it can help you
As a suicide survivor, the demons of depression and anxiety can be overwhelming. But if you stay, even for a moment longer, you will find your "semicolon" that connects you to the next part of living.
Don't be afraid to be vulnerable and talk to those you love about what is going on inside. Get professional help. If you don't jive with one therapist, find another. The trial and error sucks, not going to lie, but when you find the right combination of support, you will find hope. And that is what keeps us all going...
Love the semicolon idea.
@@kentbull The semicolon is symbol that I've seen with suicide prevention campaigns. I really like it too.
;
💖
I'd like to see the semicolon but I don't. Love the idea though
No one knows the pain other people carry. Suicide has touched my family , too. A dear friend, battling cancer was ready to end the pain and we texted all night. He died naturally a few months later. I knew he passed because the world was suddenly empty. Our spirits, our souls are our greatest gifts from God. Treat others well, listen to them and share God’s Grace. Bravissimo Steve & Jon! Thank you Piano Guys 💜
This is a beautiful cover of a beautiful song. Watching Jon play piano is honestly one of my favorite things in the entire world. The way he feels the music, the way he interacts with the keys. He's a song all by himself.
So very Beautiful and Touching♥️
I love the fact that the Piano Guys pointed out in the description that this isn’t a typical love song, since most people think it is. But “Before you go” is a beautiful work of art that actually was dedicated to Lewis Capaldi’s aunt who took her own life. 💙
I always love Cello, the heavy tone strings my heart into the flow of emotion, piano, that's my spirit, thanks so much for both your performance which makes my lonely night into a romance.
So well said! Thank you!
I have screamed and cried so many times to Lewis’s song. It hits too close, and holds too many bad memories. But this one, makes it so beautiful and gives it a kind of peace. It’s calming and soothing
For anyone affected by suicide or suicidality-
We’re here for you. It gets so much better over time and you begin to understand that there is a reason for everything- as stupid as that probably sounds right now. It helps to understand that they were in a really dark place and it will NEVER be your fault. It’s not their fault either, however. Healing takes time- for them and for you.
Depression and anxiety make you feel like you're all alone and no one will understand what you're going through. But in my experience, when you open up about your trials, a lot of people will share similar experiences and tell you they understand. My best semester at college was with three roommates who were struggling in one way or another. We knew each other's issues and we supported each other. And even if you can't find anyone that understands, there is One who went through it all and does understand!
Sometime i feel it
Try yoga..it will help👍
For many years now I have not listened to the radio in my car, only music on a USB flash drive. I update many things from time to time. And only on the fingers of one hand can one count the performers whom I do not erase. Among them are you guys. You are a miracle of nature! Listening to you, in addition to pleasure, you often think: Is this how I live? What can be done to improve this world? I'm 61, I know what I'm talking about .... Greetings from Russia, Rostov-on-Don! )))
As someone who struggles with mental health, I can tell you right now that it is very real and my heart goes out to those who have similar struggles. I love your cover of this beautiful song by Lewis Capaldi, there is so much power and feeling behind it! I completely agree that no matter how dark life is, the sun WILL rise again even when it seems impossible. And our struggles turn us exactly into who we are supposed to be!
So beautifully done!!!
Once again, you have created an inspiring 4 minute experience. I love the way your music and words teach life lessons and provide an avenue to contemplate and reflect. Thanks Jon, Steven, Al, Paul, and all your supporting cast!
To whoever reads this, stay safe and remember that you are amazing!!
❤️❤️❤️❤️
I feel so blessed to have found these guys on U Tube,eases my soul,thanks guys!!❤😊
I haven't seen you guys for a long time - I'm glad to see you again))
We've been Haydn. 🤓

I have two family members who took their own lives as well as friends and family friends. I also have a friend who attempted it, but the gun broke, making him rethink his choice. Depression is nothing new for me. Lots of people I care about have suffered from it...as have I. This last year especially I've experienced it unlike ever before. The gospel is the only light I see when I'm in a deep, dark place, and your music helps that light shine brighter and give if more warmth! Thank you for your music and thank you for playing this song! I believe strongly that one of the best ways to touch lives is through music.
❤
Every time I see you filming in the mountains or the desert I can only think about Studio C's sketch. Great cover guys !
😂😂😂😂
Agreed! 😂
That is my favorite Studio C sketch of all time!!
I’ve been listening to your music for 9 years since I was 14. It just speaks to me and this cover does especially. I lost my sister suicide in 2018, it was devastating and so painful to experience. The stages of grief were so difficult. Your music has always spoken to me and inspired me so much. I’m so grateful to you guys, you have no idea how much you have helped me throughout my entire life. I hope you guys continue to make music forever
This song speaks to my heart and soul.
Man, you guy's inspire me every time.
Steve, If you see this. I am thankful for you. I watched your "Cello Wars" video and decided I wanted to play music like you. I picked up the cello around the beginning of 4th grade (put that in perspective, I am heading into junior year of High School), and have wanted to play music like you. You have been such an inspiration to me and many other cellists, even extending to the point where my great grandmother asked me to play your arrangement of "God Be With You Till We Meet Again" at her funeral. Thank you Steve for bringing this wonderful instrument into my life and it becoming one of the biggest parts of my life. Thank you, Steve!
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
My sweet daughter suffers from depression and anxiety...and your music is so comforting and soothing....for both her and myself. I am a believer in Christ and found a new book a few months ago that has also been a comfort...it's soo hard as a parent to see your child suffer and often don't know how to help. The book is titled..Praying the scriptures over your adult children. It is truly a wonderful book. And to those who are experiencing this in your own lives...I lift you in prayer right now....God knows exactly what you need...He has not forgotten you. And I'm trusting him to meet your needs....both great and small.🙏🙏🙏🙏💕💕💕💕
I normally don‘t like it when musicians try to play music, that was originally written for a singer.
But the way you guys play it, i feel like i can hear lewis capaldi himself.
Its really incredible, thanks for making these amazing videos with so much meaning behind them, and sharing it with us.
Sending all the love to you and your familys ❤️

This hit me like a truck because it perfectly describes the poison in my life that I’ve been unable to see until now.
@@timothyblue5893 I’m sorry about that 😞
I always wanted to be alone, recently discovered I was wrong.
Yes, it is.
I put off listening to this song, but decided to finally give in and listen to it today. My 18-year-old daughter, Britnee, loved this song. I would turn the station when it came on the radio because it is so sad. I remember a little while before Britnee unexpectedly passed away last year after a surgery in SLC, that this song came on and Britnee was in the car with me. I said I didn't want to listen to it because it's sad and she looked sad at my comment. I didn't know then that she only had a few months left to live, but she knew. She knew for most of her life that she wasn't meant for this earth, but she couldn't tell me that. She is a pure soul and is busy working on the other side with her Savior and family members who have gone before. This song always makes me think of her. She could play anything on the piano and often played Piano Guys music. I miss hearing her play, but she left us many videos of her playing, and for that I'm grateful.
Thank you Steve and Jon for this beautiful rendition.
❤️❤️❤️❤️
Shauna - thank you for sharing Britnee’s story with us. What an angelic young woman. And now a true angel. So honored our music is part of her special and very purposeful life.
@@StevenSharpNelson you bring so much joy and were such a big part of Britnee's short life. Love you guys so much!❤❤❤❤
Eure Musik kommt direkt ausdem Herzen, wenn ihr eure Instrumente mit soviel Liebe und Hingabe spielt, und das macht euch so einzigartig. Man kann von den schlimmsten Zeiten zu den allerbesten im Leben gehen, wenn man diesen 3 Regeln folgt:
1. Aufgeben ist keine Option. Niemals
2. Glaube immer an dich selbst
3.Verliere niemals die Hoffnung.
Nichts ist permanent, auch eure Sorgen und die schweren Zeiten nicht. Veränderung ist eine Konstante. Gebt nicht auf, geht weiter. Ihr schafft das auch noch. Es wird alles besser werden.
There shouldn't even be a dislike button for these guys.

It took my breath away when I heard this version for the first time, it's so beautiful that I can listen to it over and over again and it's a song I love so much in its own right...
Thank you so much for all this wonderful content.☺
My daughter was hospitalized several years ago at 15 for suicide attempts. I wish she knew every second of every day, how special she is and how big of a hole she would leave if she took her life. If you are struggling, I know you feel like there is no way to get out of pain and hurt, but please, you are special and so loved by so so many.
I love that this video showed light, water and mountain heights. Depression brings one down and can cloud vision and make one feel dried up and alone. Having lost loved ones to depression, and knowing what it feels like personally, having the ability to rise above and see life in a new perspective and clearer light helps. I hope we can all help others see how valuable they are and how loved. We need each other!
Thank you for sharing this wonderful message and beautiful music!!
Steve,
Thank you for sharing what you have personally been through. I know too many people who have passed away due to depression and suicide. Taking the time to just talk to people and listen can really help someone know that we care about them. Sending hugs and prayers to everyone who is struggling with their journey in life. Stay strong and don't be afraid to ask for help!! 💚
My mother was a huge supporter of your work. She would listen to your music daily and look for every CD she could get her hands on. Unfortunately, I lost her in 2018 to cancer. Continuing to listen to your music and remember how much she loved it is a way to keep her close. And this song has particular meaning to me as I have struggled with my mental health since her passing, and even before. It's been a constant trial just to get through each day. Music is something I have turned to in these past years. And even if these songs are new covers, it still helps me to remember my mother. Thank you for always being there, even if you don't know it.
I am so sorry! It is hard to lose people you love! I have lost someone I love too!
Вот уже много лет не слушаю радио в своей машине, только музыка на флешке. Многие вещи периодически обновляю. И лишь по пальцам одной руки можно сосчитать исполнителей, которых не стираю. В числе их - и вы, ребята. Вы- чудо природы! Слушая вас, помимо наслаждения, часто задумываешься:
А так ли я живу? Что сделать, чтобы улучшить этот мир?
Мне 61 , я знаю, о чём говорю....
Привет из России, Ростов на Дону! )))
I have been fighting depression and anxiety for years. In my darkest moments it is God’s love and purpose for my life that keeps me going. I may not understand why I’m going through the challenges that face me, but I do know that God put me here for a reason and that is to help others that are hurting too. You are a blessing for others even if you don’t realize it. No matter how dark it gets, hang in there and know God will get you through! 💐
I often have panic attacks and often have depression, some days I have to just take baby steps and remind myself that the world doesn't revolve around me. There are many options for self care , talking, listen to relaxing music, are big ones. Look for something to do that you can accomplish something. Something to share and look back on
Everytime I play the piano, I picture myself in Jon's place and the cello and other background music fills my mind....this song is definitely worth your imagination
I do get depressed and overwhelmed with life at times, but your music is soothing and uplifting at the same time. I listen to it, close my eyes, and my mood seems to lift. Thank you so much!!!
Son increíbles, transmiten mucha paz!!! Los escucho desde Argentina 🇦🇷
You couldn't know how my day has been. You couldn't know what my life has become. But this song, and the text that came with it made a difference today for me. Hop on. Struggle on. Never Give Up. We are with you. Keep fighting.
I’ve dealt with depression, mental illness, suicidal thoughts beginning of 7th grade and it’s gotten worse over the years. I’m still learning to control my thoughts and get out of those deep moments.
I didn’t know this song and it had me in tears…I’m sure I’ll be sobbing once I know the lyrics. You two put emotions into wordless music like no other musicians I’ve ever heard. I’ve been to two concerts and will buy tickets every time you come to the Chicago area!
I have in the recent past dealt with depression and thoughts of suicide but as this quote that hit me one day goes"Sometimes the strongest thing you can do is admit you are weak and ask for help". There are just not enough words to describe how much each person is loved and the amazing things you will go on to accomplish. God has a special plan for each us and there is more to your story
Your music has saved me. In times of such pain and despair, your music has carried me through when nothing else could. It brings so much joy to me. Thank you ❤️
Emue aux larmes
Beautiful song ❤😭🌺
You know those times when there's just no way to describe what you're hearing in words? Yeah, this is one of those times. This sounds absolutely BEAUTIFUL!
Music has been one of biggest sources of inviting peace and calming uncertainty in my life. I believe God uses music as therapy to heal everyday confusion and deeper soul rending depression and anxiety. This song is evidence of that. Thank you!!
Hello dear how are you doing..?
Such a beautiful song ❤️ I've dealt with depression (and anxiety) on and off through my life, and it's been a lot worse the last couple years. I'm thankful for God's presence in my life that has helped me to overcome my challenges! I'm doing much better now, and wish I could just let everyone out there know that there will come a day when it gets better. It might be a long time, but you'll get there if you keep holding on. Jesus loves you so much and He's got great things planned for your life 💕
Aww, thank you so much for the love and support you’ve been showing over the years, I hope you keep listening and enjoying my music 🎶 God bless you ❤️
Thank you
The impact, the reverbs, the bass... It hit my soul.
have not heard of these guys before, but they are pretty good
They're a real treat to both listen to and watch
Welcome!! Start looking their stuff up. They're fantastic! 😁
OH boy, you're going to have a lovely time listening through all the rest. I'm envious! Only get to have that first listen once.
Enjoy! You're in for something special!
Hey! Welcome to the TPG family! So happy to have you. There are refreshments on page 3 of the comments...make yourself at home! 😄
I am so grateful for the power of music!! Having major anxiety and depression myself I can tell you now that it has saved my life more than once! I also work as a nurse and use it to help calm my patients. Thank you Piano guys and thank you Jon for inspiring me to compose my own music.
Their music always heal my heart after getting pain in this world.💗
Agreed
I listen to this everyday , as a intermediate muscian i always think we practice our instruments everyday but we dont get medals or cerficates in school but i am soo lucky to be a muscian as i can touch peoples hearts and give the the best music i can ever produce and even as i grow old i can still play it for all my life , i am soo thankful
I want to be like you Steve ❤
With lots of love From my young boy somewhere around the world ❤
Lewis Capaldi + PianoGuys =A Very Good Day 🔥❤️
Oh, Piano Guys. I've been here from the beginning and your music always fills me up. Thank you for sharing so much light! And to anyone who's battling anything hard: loss of a loved one, mental illness, a difficult breakup - so many hard things! It can get better! Just don't quit. Life cannot get better if you take an early exit. Sure things can get worse as well, but extinguishing your life is not the answer. We all have personal growth to do and light to share. Stay. Look outward. There are people who need the unique gifts you have to offer.
Whoever you are, you matter. I’m glad you’re here. You are precious to this world. We love you and we stand with you.
The way you guys play makes me feel so nice inside. I can go to sleep easily knowing that there are still people who appreciate classical music
I hope for anyone who has ever gone through something or currently is, to know that things will always get better.
I went through a very tough battle with depression when I was medically forced to retire. I didn’t know who I was or what I was supposed to do. I was lost. I had to find a new identity all while still dealing with heavy medical issues. I was all alone all my friends were teachers so therefore they were working. It took about 5 years to fully accept my new lot in life and move on. It still creeps in but not as bad. Meds help.
I suffered from depression for several years. Sometime it felt like nothing could stop the pain. But no matter how bad it got or how deep of a pit I felt like I was in, listening to music like this always seemed to make all the pain disappear for just a few minutes. Thank you guys! You've touched far more lives than you know.
This video absolutely moves me.
My sister committed suicide. And a friend of my sisters son committed suicide.
Mental illness runs deep in my family. I have ptsd, with severe depression. Your music lifts me... all of it. Thank you for these gifts.
I am so sorry 😔💙 praying for you
Your music helps me cope with my depression.
Your music relaxes me and makes me feel at ease.
Thank you.
This music is more than just chords and notes played together, it is a living thing that is beautifully portrayed by you guys. It is life changing music you make here. I love it so much ❤️.
thank you for giving us this to us. this song pulled me out of my darkest days when I felt myself sinking again and wanting to quit everything. I've been suicidal and depressed for 6 years. your music is one of the reason I feel hopeful for the future. thank you from the bottom of my heart.
now steve looks like someone who knows how to survive. i love your music guys:)
My brother just got out of a psychiatric ward where he battled thoughts of suicide I’m so glad of his honesty for letting us know he needed help! I am so incredibly grateful to have my little brother in this life!
Music is a way of expression and I can feel every note has more power than a freight train. Thank you guys so much. You may not know this but you've been there through my exams, my stress, and have been my inspiration. This song means a lot to me as well... Thank you guys for everything.
That means so much to us. Thank you Elequa!
I love the look of joy that they both have on their faces as they play. It makes me happy that they are able to do something they love and are also able to bring joy to others. ❤️
Yes, I agree!
Some of my favorite artists put together! I'm in love!!!!
Love the video, the music and your message. My son is 21 now, had always been an outgoing well-liked kid but had self esteem issues no one knew about. After taking a bunch of pills one day he opened up about feelings of hopelessness and suicide. I thank God every day we did not lose him, because it’s true we never know what someone else is going though. Life is precious. We are all precious. Be kind.

My junior year of high school, I lost an old childhood friend to suicide. It shattered my world, and the world of a lot of my classmates and friends. Early June would have been her 24th birthday. I too was struggling with depression and suicidal thoughts at the time of her passing, and your music helped me through some of my darkest moments. Now, I am in a much better mental state, I am a manager for a great company, and I'm making my own way and doing things on my own, through my own strength. I still have hard days, but I have lots of friends and family to help me through. It might not seem like it now, but it does get better. It takes time. But it gets better. It's gonna be okay.
I noticed how Steve was gruff while smiling as hard as he could. It gave me the sense that life was being extremely hard for the character that he was portraying, but that this character was choosing to smile, anyway. It was a form of courage on that character's part. Now that I have read the story behind the song as well as Steve's experience, it makes more sense. Thank you for doing this so sensitively.
You find the most beautiful landscapes and I'm left wondering where do you go in the world that's so beautiful and remote 😭

I am 42, a strong believer in Christ and the Bible but have still experienced anxiety, fear and panic attacks. Going thru therapy helping me to overcome these things and face them head on rather than just praying it away. You should absolutely not feel guilt or that there is something wrong with you for asking for help! I had asked God and pastors and fellow Christians for help countless times but it wasn’t until I devoted myself to working thru things with a therapist that I finally received the help and healing I so desperately needed! Devote yourself to working Through it not getting rid of it!
Hello Anna how are you doing..??
Everyone has pain in their lives. Some have so much pain that they cannot handle. You are not alone. Friends, family, professionals are there for you. And God is by your side no matter what you may think. Reach out for help. I have a friend whose adult son recently committed suicide. My heart grieves for her and the family.
I've dealt with depression and anxiety most of my life. Came close a few times but I've also noticed that each time music has saved me. The emotions, the lyrics helped me see past the darkness and remind me that these are just moments..ones I could fight my way through. Life gets tough and we aren't meant to go at it alone no matter what the depression says to us. It's okay to not be okay, just know it will.
Piano guys you’re amazing that sounds so beautiful you at the practice so well it’s just beautiful and lovely and your music how do you guys play music is beautiful it’s so special and wonderful and magical and it’s just incredible I love him in the music that you guys create is gorgeous and TH-cam to do that to listen to the beautiful music you piano guys create with a beautiful cello and the beautiful piano playing that gorgeous music it’s just it’s mind blowing and it’s just beautiful and I love that song by Lewis Capaldi it’s a beautiful song and then when he sings it was gorgeous accent I think it’s beautiful and you guys playing that was it who is this is it’s beautiful and it’s wonderful and lovely and it’s amazing so a great job well done piano guys
I don't even remember when even was the last Piano Guys video, but when comes it shakes the foundations!
Wish I were able to play violin, harp or bagpipes when younger. So thankful you were able to. Amazing music. Such precision, talent and creative nature views. 🤗👏
You gentlemen are true inspirations. You helped me get through the loss of my fiancée 5 1/2 years ago… I would go to the outdoor rink every Sunday and skate for an hour listening to all of your music as I was a figure skater n you helped me heal in ways that I cannot explain so thank you from the bottom of my heart. I listen to your music still all the time and love you guys! 🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️🇨🇦
I was just in Chestertown for a visit and at the hotel I was staying at they played your music!! In particularly your Bach rendition. It was perfect because it was about to be sunset so set the mood perfectly. I absolutely love you guys and your music. I will try my hardest to attend one of your live concerts!! 💗💗💗💗

I love this song anyway and then you guys take it and make it even more beautiful as always. Your music has been a huge comfort to me through the last few months which have been pretty tough. Thank you for what you do, guys. Your work is amazing!
Aww, thank you so much for the love and support you’ve been showing over the years, I hope you keep listening and enjoying my music, and where're you from?
Definitely going to keep listening to your music!

@@stevensharpnelson6356 it's pretty nice right now. It's currently the middle of spring for us so things are getting warmer which is a blessing.
@@rhillabeier4513 that's good to hear from you dear 💕
Thank you, so much for posting this, I needed this so much. I have a loved one who took his life 5 years ago. It never stops hurting, but you learn how to handle it better. I also was able to find the strength from our Heavenly Father, our Savior Jesus Christ and the gospel. Without the comfort from those, it would have been so much harder losing him.
This was so beautiful, thank you!
You guys are amazing!!! 🎻🎹🎼
It always shifts and alters my mood listening to your music! Thank you!

Thanks so much for letting me film this video for you! It was such an honor.
Hi, The Piano Guys. I used to listen to your music everyday 6-7 years ago, and just rediscovered your channel. Your music had inspired me as a violinist and seeing the joy you continue to play with today made my day. Hope that you have been well all these years!
