This guy is amazing! His lyrics are so powerful. I relate to so many of his songs and it's comforting to know I'm not alone in my dark thoughts. Thank you for sharing :)
I think this song isn't just about his father - it teaches us that assumption is the mother of all fuck-ups, especially when it comes to people, and this song is a cold, hard reminder of that fact. Like the whole song says: "I never knew". We are so consumed by ourselves, obsessed with ourselves, that we forget to actually listen to our loved ones, we take their wellbeing for granted. When you REALLY know that every second with them could be your last, every second with them is precious.
EXCELLENT LYRICS! GREAT VIDEO! STORY HITS HARD ON MY HEART ... LOST BOYFRIEND YEARS AGO TWO WEEKS BEFORE WE WERE SUPPOSED TO MEET AGAIN AFTER HIM MOVING AWAY TO GET HELP WITH DEPRESSION AND ADDICTION..
Hits home ... I forgot about this song till now. I miss my friend of 13 years who we lost to suicide . I wish I could say "I love you" one last time . Rest in peace El Patròn ♡♥♡♥
jargin >>> A single from Failure, "Disappoint", was released on Accession in October 2001. The song dealt with Shear's sense of loss after his father's suicide on October 28, 1999.
best song ever to zone out to o-o .... get lost in the beat... the lyrics... surface... repeat the lyrics to these songs speak such truth... so relatable too,
so moving Though you are gone I am still your son And Though your pain is over Mine has just begun Did I disappoint you? Did I let you down? Did I stand on the shore And watch you as you drowned? Can you forgive me? I never knew The pain you carried Deep inside of you.
Sad to know Tom's father has taken his life. We dont know how much they really meant to us untill they are gone. We had a close family member whos life was taken from us by a careless driver recently. The things about them we now miss, even the parts that used to annoy us are missed. We always wish we could have done something to change what happened. Never take matters into bothersome ways, and always love them while you have them
Gracias skyhawk747, por subir esta canción maravillosa. Es una de mis favoritas. Mereces ser llamado un verdadero campeón. Hasta pronto... y que siga lo mejor de la música que existe, como esta canción de Assemblage 23.
In the end.. when the voice changes slightly surreal and the sun shines through the clouds.. it's almost like the deceased one is looking down and hearing them say these words to them the whole time.. and finally when the voice sound changes at this point, it's as if the deceased one is the one finally saying these words to the living... because now the living is "disappointed"... :o
One of the those ultra moving songs from ASS23. This is the band that so many copied that Assemblage gets accused of copying THEM! lmfao. If you get a chance, please listen to BREAK ME on our site. Sam Thanks.
I know when I saw this performed live I couldn't sing along I could just stand there and cry. It was kind of a shame to see people smiling and dancing and singing along without feeling the impact.
ot thx for upload with lyrics! i had never knew the background of this song. my father also kills himself. so i hear this song different than before great video too. with scenes from "pandoras box" in the end. great.
All you can do is cry to this song, asking for forgiveness, to know the answers. Wanting just one more time or chance to get it all back, and to recognize what was happening. To ask yourself, "Would it really matter?" "What could/can I do?" These are hard questions to answer, I say that I'd help them, save them, but it's all lies. I'm just as useless as the next. T.T
Damn man. lol. Never heard of Colony 5. I am just getting back into the music/scene after an 12 year hiatus. They are right up my ally since i love the other bands you mention. Thanks, mate.
i used to dj in ft laud. you picked the tracks that i used that were way ahead of the curve. i am so impressed! keep it up. new school guy! im watching!
Very nice. Thanks man. Got in a while ago from the club i go to. Man things have changed. some bands are brand new while some have been around the block. But it's nice to see the music is still going strong. Love me some De/Vision, God Module as well as Feindflug and F.L.A./Front 242
i like this remix, maybe cuz i heard it first, but it's the ambiguity of it until the revelation of father son at the end with the hint coming in the breakdown.
This is the best song of Assemblage 23 ! I became fan of A23 because of this song so it is full of Nostalgie for me. I didn't know this version but I still prefer the Original. Thank you for sharing.
@Nerolus I completely agree. Definitely check out more of his work. It's all amazing. Each album has a very VERY different feel, some much darker, some more angry, some very introspective, others more contemplative about other things. All, however, are deeply personal and moving.
I would understand your reaction (I wouldn't understand people smiling to such a deep song!) - physically moved by the amazing music, and emotionally, or spiritually, moved by the depth of the lyrics.
@rustydwyer23 I can almost relate to that. There is talk that my dad's death was suicide. I don't believe it, but there is still that doubt in my head...
Some people, sociopaths in particular, simply CANNOT empathize with anything but themselves. I go through the same thing watching "funny accidents" videos .. i can only really laugh at them when no one actually gets hurt. Usually just come away feeling a bit drained.
Not so much into this, but this is one of the best remixes EVER made. The original sounds against this like garbage. The voice is so perfectly mixed, its mesmerizing! And the video is also great and fitting!
@bloodkills666 I know what you're talking about (it had a black background with moving shapes, or something?!), but don't know what happened to it! Glad I found this person's video, though!
You truly want to see the power of this song...watch him perform it live... the raw emotion is intense...and emotion is not something most people associate with electronic music...
@achilleasloutraki Songs such as this can help with the flow of emotions that need to be released and experienced in order to make the journey to some kind of recovery.
@rustydwyer23- I know you posted a year ago, but i feel the same way as you do, two of my friends committed suicide in the same year and this song makes me think of them as well.
This sounds really great!!! I might not have the best equipment but I think this a great copy!!! Wow! (subjective opinion, as I said, I only have a moderately good pair of headphones and a reasonably good quality sound card). TH-cam should automatically delete lowbitrate versions of my favourite tracks, that kind of piracy is intolerable! It's an injustice! An insult to the purity of the original artwork, a perversion!
When you've been happy, you hear the music. When you've bee sad, you understand it. I cry every time I hear this song.
As a dancer I can tell you that just because we're dancing and singing along doesn't mean that we don't feel the impact.

This is so chilling, but so good. Always brings a tear to my eye as it reminds me of a friend who's been through so much.
One of my favorites till this day! Beautiful dark melody❤️
EXCELLENT LYRICS! GREAT VIDEO! STORY HITS HARD ON MY HEART ... LOST BOYFRIEND YEARS AGO TWO WEEKS BEFORE WE WERE SUPPOSED TO MEET AGAIN AFTER HIM MOVING AWAY TO GET HELP WITH DEPRESSION AND ADDICTION..
So deep and yet so powerful..... Love this song.
this song never gets old
The two people that disliked this video were too stunned by its scale of awesomeness that they hit the wrong button.
Hits home ... I forgot about this song till now. I miss my friend of 13 years who we lost to suicide . I wish I could say "I love you" one last time . Rest in peace El Patròn ♡♥♡♥

i buried the feelings of my long past best friends suicide long ago. . . this song totally tore those right back to the fore. . .
best song ever to zone out to o-o .... get lost in the beat... the lyrics... surface... repeat
the lyrics to these songs speak such truth... so relatable too,
This is still one of my favorite remixes of this epic song. :)
so moving
Though you are gone
I am still your son
And Though your pain is over
Mine has just begun
Did I disappoint you?
Did I let you down?
Did I stand on the shore
And watch you as you drowned?
Can you forgive me?
I never knew
The pain you carried
Deep inside of you.
An awesome work by Assemblage 23 and Funker Vogt! I can't stop listening xD
+Masse Taktstock I can't stop listening either. This song is an addiction.
This is probably one of the saddest, most personal, songs ever written... it almost seems odd that people dance to it...
I love to dance to this. It grips one in such a deep and guarded place. To dance to it is to release it, lose oneself "in it." JMO :)
This hits to close to home. RIP grandma, I love you.
Sad to know Tom's father has taken his life. We dont know how much they really meant to us untill they are gone.

I never knew...until this moment, that the soul, it's self...could cry!!!
I love this song,can't get it out of my head.Awesome dancing music
Gracias skyhawk747, por subir esta canción maravillosa. Es una de mis favoritas. Mereces ser llamado un verdadero campeón. Hasta pronto... y que siga lo mejor de la música que existe, como esta canción de Assemblage 23.
Makes me think of two friends who hanged themselfes..
Miss them both..
R.I.P
Muy buen tema con mucho sentimiento, escuchar temas como estos hacen que la música sea importante para la vida.
My sister wrote in her good bye letter that she wanted this song and also Skin with A23 on her funeral. :/
probably further proof that electronic music artists have come from a wonderful place
One of the best song ever!!
this song is so sad i listen to it like once every 6 months at the most- but its a great song
In the end.. when the voice changes slightly surreal and the sun shines through the clouds.. it's almost like the deceased one is looking down and hearing them say these words to them the whole time.. and finally when the voice sound changes at this point, it's as if the deceased one is the one finally saying these words to the living... because now the living is "disappointed"... :o

RIP My beautiful baby sister Amanda . I never got the chance the chance to tell you how much I love you ...but I did
Yes us on the darker side respect our dead even in life throughout. Suicide is a painful thing for all involved.
Love it this makes me think about the past
critical moment for the artist assemblage, when his father committed suicide.
beautiful song, amazing!!
ot thx for upload with lyrics! i had never knew the background of this song. my father also kills himself. so i hear this song different than before
great video too. with scenes from "pandoras box" in the end. great.
reminds one of recent event in my life, when my mother died... and I followed the whole process. It hurts !
All you can do is cry to this song, asking for forgiveness, to know the answers. Wanting just one more time or chance to get it all back, and to recognize what was happening.

tantos recuerdos adoro este remix...so many memories come to my head, i love this remix
Damn man. lol. Never heard of Colony 5. I am just getting back into the music/scene after an 12 year hiatus. They are right up my ally since i love the other bands you mention. Thanks, mate.

фанкер красавицы! реанимация бесподобная!
one and only cd i ever got autographed. tom shear is a bad ass.
Very nice. Thanks man. Got in a while ago from the club i go to. Man things have changed. some bands are brand new while some have been around the block. But it's nice to see the music is still going strong. Love me some De/Vision, God Module as well as Feindflug and F.L.A./Front 242

My friedn just showed me this, and omg i love it. totally gonna blast this in my car
What mix is this, i've not got it. It's even better than mine. Absolutely Brilliant.
@Nerolus I completely agree. Definitely check out more of his work. It's all amazing. Each album has a very VERY different feel, some much darker, some more angry, some very introspective, others more contemplative about other things. All, however, are deeply personal and moving.
I would understand your reaction (I wouldn't understand people smiling to such a deep song!) - physically moved by the amazing music, and emotionally, or spiritually, moved by the depth of the lyrics.
I figured that out, so sad :( I get emotional when I hear it still, probably always will. Damaged is MY song though. Feeling that way now...
Beautiful words.
Excellent video to this song. Well done
Kind of the same for me, love this band after about 15 minutes...
@rustydwyer23
I can almost relate to that.
There is talk that my dad's death was suicide. I don't believe it, but there is still that doubt in my head...
Great Song and great Video Thumbs Up!!!

Super Lied, echt geil...

i like soooooo much this remix,,, good work
You truly want to see the power of this song...watch him perform it live... the raw emotion is intense...and emotion is not something most people associate with electronic music...
echt geiler Song
TEMAZO
I don't understand how some one can happily sing and dance to a well done song about suicide.. music like this though, it always has such meaning.
Great video, thank you.
@achilleasloutraki Songs such as this can help with the flow of emotions that need to be released and experienced in order to make the journey to some kind of recovery.
@djanzon im sorry bout ur loss just know many more care - always
love it thanx
Oh wow, this is amazing!
@rustydwyer23- I know you posted a year ago, but i feel the same way as you do, two of my friends committed suicide in the same year and this song makes me think of them as well.
nice memories
Wooooooowwww.......!!!
@wumpscut1 well once i read the liner notes it was about his own father i really couldnt listen to it anymore
super!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i danced and sang, but i was crying too. i know exactly what you are saying
thank you
great!
@rustydwyer23 It was actually about Tom's father committing suicide. It's a beautifully haunting track isn't it?
hammer geniale Band
Great song. However I miss his old sound/work of his first 2 albums. Darker/angry A23 is what I miss.
awesome
Powerful.
Underbar!!!
wow nice
I also made an remix of "Disappoint" you can listen to...
@Slavitron
Sounds to me like the Funker Vogt remix!
This sounds really great!!! I might not have the best equipment but I think this a great copy!!! Wow! (subjective opinion, as I said, I only have a moderately good pair of headphones and a reasonably good quality sound card).
TH-cam should automatically delete lowbitrate versions of my favourite tracks, that kind of piracy is intolerable! It's an injustice! An insult to the purity of the original artwork, a perversion!
Denyed.. To talk to you for one last time
haunting
