This is my grandma’s most favorite song. She’s currently fighting corona, and I’m here, listening to this, crying my eyes out, feeling like my heart is being ripped out of my chest. Please get better grandma... I can’t imagine the world without you.
True story behind the song (by Genius): Plain White T’s hit, “Hey There Delilah,” was in the running for two Grammy awards, and people are still talking about the girl from the popular tune. Delilah DiCrescenzo, a very successful professional runner who just missed out on the 2012 Olympic Team, will be featured in the ESPN The Magazine’s February 18 music issue, in which she tells the story of how she ended up in the song for the umpteenth time: She was back home in Chicago while on break from school at Columbia University. She had a boyfriend at school, but met a guy at a party who was in this band called the Plain White T’s, and the musician told her he was going to write a song about her. A few months later, Tom Higgenson visited her house to drop off a CD. One of the tracks was called “Hey There Delilah.” She was flattered. Then the song got big. Real big. Nominated for a Grammy big. On February 8th, 2008, she attended the Grammys with the band. The song didn’t win, but she described the day as one of the best of her life. In years since, the song still follows her. And that’s okay. The song didn’t get Tom Higgenson the girl, she is still with the same boyfriend from college , but they’ve both enjoyed the ride. ( copied from internet)
this is probably one of the best songs ever written, so simple so catchy so beautiful, of course there's songs like bohemian rhapsody but u know what i mean, anyone could relate to this :/
I made this so long ago .. I actually made this for a girl I liked on an online game , “ Runescape.” 😂 Oh 11 year old me 🙄 Life be like that sometimes 🤷♀️
That would be because the music video was uploaded by both Fearless Records and HollywoodRecordsVEVO. It's a lot like how several Nickelback songs were uploaded by both Nickelback and Roadrunner Records and how several Shinedown songs were uploaded by both Atlantic Records and Shinedown.
Artyom Chyornyj I think it was easier to be honest. Today we have Google to search for anything. It would be enough to type the lyrics in Google's search box and you would find the song easily I think.
Also my delilah is in NYC… It’s been 2 years of us in a long distance relationship… Every month am listening to this song on our anniversary so i can get motivation and strength. This song makes me remember the best time of us and makes me fall in love with her again and again! Happy Anniversary My Delilah ! I miss you🥹…
Tug of the Heart I’m merely A passerby of your existence, I grow to be A passerby of your workplace, And I’m indebted to be A spokesperson of your perfection. To always have and to hold, and talk in awe of you & I In hopes one day this passion will be reignited. I’m condemned to be a passerby, of a love I thought would be lost but isn’t. It lingers on our breath still, and sits on the beacon of our brains lighting up the beach where we had our first kiss. I see it now, I see what we once were, I see what we can be, but are we meant to find each other in New York City? In Stockholm or in Limassol? Where my heart feels the tug, there, here, everywhere drawn towards you. No matter where we are in the world, our hearts will always feel this pull - here, there, everywhere.
My dad told me that he was sing this song to me when i was 2years and when i grow up he hear me listen to it in my room .he just hugged me. And cried 😭 i im now 16 years old
Five years ago, the love of my life sang this beautiful song for me, in front of our friends. He is a guitarrist and he had to leave Italy to studying guitar in an other country. He stays here for me but now he has a new girlfriend. This song hurts my heart, and I miss him hardley... (sorry for my bad english)
I haven't heard this song in such a long time. Reminds me of the old days when this song was played on the radio. I was a little girl and didn't speak English. Brings back memories and making me cry so hard right now.
Like if you're watching in 2994 because you're a 903 year old Time-Lord from the planet Gallifrey in the constellation of Kasterborous, and your TARDIS got stuck in this year and you're fighting the Master and his army of Cybermen.
hey there Delilah whats it like in new York city I'm a thousand miles away but girl you look pretty yes you do I installed a camera in your room I'm watching you
I grew up on rock n roll and drums.I love rock n roll but something bout this song I like I have a drum cover to it along with many others.it's a great song love it.
This used to be in the radio all the time when I was living in ohio in 2010 then had to to move down to Florida and i just heard it from the best 2010 songs and I was like..."ohhh man I miss 2010" 😖
Reminds me of a friend on Xbox I had. She was very kind and nice to me when I was going through tough times, but one day we were doing the first heist on GTA 5 and she never got back on. That was in December, I haven't heard from her since. I'm still upset to this day, and this is one of her favorite songs.
So the words are true. This song was written for a girl, however she left him right before this song was released. It's so sad knowing this and that they never ended up together. I loved this song when I was a little kid and still do. As a kid I thought he and the girl got married and lived happily. After finding out what really happened I was so sad. It's unfortunate things like this that hurt so badly. Once you find someone who cares so much about you, don't leave them. Those people are rare ;-;♡
She wasn't even dating him. He wrote it to impress her, but she was like 17 and had a boyfriend already. She is a runner, from what I remember, after reading her Wikipedia, and she didn't like him, so from her perspective it's a creeper song
@@shahrizalaidin How was she a bitch?Wouldn`t you find it creepy if someone wrote a song speculating about a future with you while you are in a relationship with someone else?Aside from being a dick move it also is disturbing.I get that he needed to vent out his emotions and I respect that,however this song should never have been released considering the circumstances.
My long distance didnt last. After a year and 5 months she decided she needed something different and i dont blame her for the way her heart felt. You cant force someone to stay forever
Had a dog a while back named Delilah who passed away due to illness. Song still gets me. Now I have a long distance girlfriend and I sing this to her. It still gets to me
I always get sad nostalgic vibes from this song and I think I know why: my childhood friend moved far away from my hometown. The day after he moved, I discovered this song on the Internet. *sigh* Oh the memories. At least my family and I managed to move somewhere closer to him.
Hey it's Delilah It's so lonely in the city You're a thousand miles away Telling your new girl she's so pretty As you should I miss what we had it was good It was so good Hey its Delilah I know i shouldn't be calling Just know every time i see your posts My heart just keeps on falling You're with her I miss the guy i knew you were Please don't love her Oh its what you do to me Oh its what you do to me Oh its what you do to me Oh its what you do to me What you do to me Hey its Delilah Getting by's been pretty hard Because every time that i see your face I hear the old guitar you played for me The song's you wrote you sang to me Just a memory Hey its Delilah Sorry if i am a bother But i just had to call to say I ran into your father On the street He spoke of you he was so sweet Like you, so sweet Oh its what you do to me Oh its what you do to me Oh its what you do to me Oh its what you do to me What you do to me A thousand miles is pretty far But nothing breaks my soul and heart Like watching you forget each part of us My friends they all make fun of me Cause they don't know why i can't see That you moved on and i wasn't enough Listen i can promise you That i'll no longer bother you Cause i know that you won't love me as much As your new crush Hey its delilah Treat her good and let her know She's the one you'll always run to And she'll never be alone Guess its my fault Losing you was my f*cking fault Please tell me why you never called I'm broken and i feel so small I'm in withdrawal Oh its what you do to me Oh its what you do to me Oh its what you do to me Oh its what you do to me What you do to me
The 12 year old youtube videos with movie maker lyrics hit different. The old youtube “related videos” section was so much better than the current recommendation system. I would find and rediscover so much cool music. Now it’s just stuff I’ve already seen.
well uh so basically the guy who wrote the song wasnt actually in love with her they were just friends and she had a boyfriend but he wrote the song just as a romantic song
Well i was with one girl and i gave her everything every second of my life and she just turned away and left finihing it all with just a text after year and a half..
Muhi exactly imagine someone who you don’t like at all makes you a love song with your real name even though you’re already in a relationship like that’s hella creepy and sad
I know this great song from my elementary English teacher and I can’t thank her enough for showing us this great piece of art, I will never forget this song, nor her.
Such a beautiful and inspiring song ... I don't know if long distance relationships work but they must at least lighten loneliness. And in case you're single, whenever you're lying on your bed feeling lonely just think of how there is very probably someone, somewhere in the world, who's lying lonely too and who could be your soulmate :) In a way you would be thinking of each other though you don't know them :D .
Mylène Dawson they don’t work, and it’s better to be alone. Otherwise your heart gets ripped out of your chest and you can’t breathe. You can’t reason with the person, after they give up after years of love, because they aren’t near you. You can’t feel any happiness ever again. You take shit forgranted and ruin everything. You spend most of your time in calls and shit, wasting your life and dying inside but not knowing why. You think it’s love, it’s not, so you make yourself love them, then you destroy them, they destroy you... eventually someone dies. So after being with a girl who we were both adamant was my soulmate, for over 3 years online and I met her a lot of times in the last year of the relationship. I can tell you, never have an online relationship. It’s unhealthy, toxic and it isn’t real love, it’s a fiction of your imagination. I am now dead inside, thanks to the girl who was always trying to prove her love to me, when in the end she left anyway.
Cameron Dorgan don't worry you'll meet who is better than her believe me I can tell, but till that time I need you to be stronger ,I just know that you will pass it. Have a nice day🌷n god bless you.....
@@ONYXlON Well, that sounds like a pretty sad story. I don't know what you mean by toxic and how much it went wrong, but I'm sure you must have has several good moments, even though they seem now ruined by the fact the relationship ended. Don't say you're dead inside, you may be broke now but you can always rebuild yourself, rewire who you are and adapt to survive, no matter how life strikes you. I do believe that life is just like a war, and every hardship is just a battle to win. In the end, you can always stand and be proud of your evolution. Also, I do believe you do not need another human being to reach happiness. In my opinion, stable satisfaction and life can only be reached as you build them on your own because then it will never fall apart and you will never be disappointed. I wish you good luck for overcoming all this. :)
I remember my uncle singing this on an guitar, he lived in another country,and me, being the youngest kid, i had the smallest period of time hanging out with him,and i came over to my grandma's house(where my grandma,grandpa,my uncle and my aunt lived)because he was getting married,i still regret being young
OK, so I have heard this song in the radio 6 or 7 years ago, and fell in love with it. Since I didn't know the song's name, I was searching the crap out of... Well, everything. Since I'm a fan of Coldplay, I listened to their song called "Viva La Vida". was scrolling through the comments a bit, and saw this video called "Hey There Delilah" then, because of my utterly weird memory, I remembered that this song has words that sound like it. Of course, I almost broke my mouse in order to click this. After listening for a few seconds, a life milestone has been achieved. Thank you, video suggestions, I shall never call you dumb again. That's the tale of the amazing me and this gorgeous song :D
That song that's not popular but like is (because that makes sense) and isn't really heard that much but you still know every single word. Those songs are the ones worth remembering for forever.
Crazy when you hear a song it gives you that break in your brain sometimes you just need .... Helped though some of the deepest lows in depression. No other song has done this ♥
It’s 1:08 AM and I’m bawling because I wanted to sing this to a girl that I really liked, but the friendship that was so sweet turned sour, and while this song is still incredible, it just makes me cry wondering what could have been.
Honestly, TikTok is the most cancerous thing to ever come a long, (let alone the cringe). Man, I f*cking miss the good ol days, before all this pathetic social media fishing for attention sh*t.
@@imaginativeIdeations absolutely agreed my guy. Plus, everyone is bitching around and getting offended for nothing in particular, people are sick nowadays and you can either accept that you even had good days or just let nostalgic thoughts chase you around

Actually she already have a boyfriend by the time he wrote this song. Anddddd... She sued him for using her name.. What an absolute biatch.
@@shahrizalaidin Damn that is really rough. I feel bad for him ;-;
She wasn't even dating him. He wrote it to impress her, but she was like 17 and had a boyfriend already. She is a runner, from what I remember, after reading her Wikipedia, and she didn't like him, so from her perspective it's a creeper song
@@random_meta Wow I didn't know that. That's crazy
@@shahrizalaidin How was she a bitch?Wouldn`t you find it creepy if someone wrote a song speculating about a future with you while you are in a relationship with someone else?Aside from being a dick move it also is disturbing.I get that he needed to vent out his emotions and I respect that,however this song should never have been released considering the circumstances.
Official anthem of long distance relationships ❤
Lia G. or long distance loves that we can't express
Lia G. Hi liaaa
My long distance didnt last. After a year and 5 months she decided she needed something different and i dont blame her for the way her heart felt. You cant force someone to stay forever
EnderMan themonster bh h
Lia G. AGREED (...and I can relate...)
Had a dog a while back named Delilah who passed away due to illness. Song still gets me. Now I have a long distance girlfriend and I sing this to her. It still gets to me

I always get sad nostalgic vibes from this song and I think I know why: my childhood friend moved far away from my hometown. The day after he moved, I discovered this song on the Internet. *sigh* Oh the memories. At least my family and I managed to move somewhere closer to him.
+DELILAH ALEX AMERICA MICHELLE hey there delilah
+jensyll parkurs what's it like in New York City
I'm a thousand miles away but girl tonight you look so pretty^
+Kevin Caceres yes you do
Naw :3
Hey it's Delilah
It's so lonely in the city
You're a thousand miles away
Telling your new girl she's so pretty
As you should
I miss what we had it was good
It was so good
Hey its Delilah
I know i shouldn't be calling
Just know every time i see your posts
My heart just keeps on falling
You're with her
I miss the guy i knew you were
Please don't love her
Oh its what you do to me
Oh its what you do to me
Oh its what you do to me
Oh its what you do to me
What you do to me
Hey its Delilah
Getting by's been pretty hard
Because every time that i see your face
I hear the old guitar you played for me
The song's you wrote you sang to me
Just a memory
Hey its Delilah
Sorry if i am a bother
But i just had to call to say
I ran into your father
On the street
He spoke of you he was so sweet
Like you, so sweet
Oh its what you do to me
Oh its what you do to me
Oh its what you do to me
Oh its what you do to me
What you do to me
A thousand miles is pretty far
But nothing breaks my soul and heart
Like watching you forget each part of us
My friends they all make fun of me
Cause they don't know why i can't see
That you moved on and i wasn't enough
Listen i can promise you
That i'll no longer bother you
Cause i know that you won't love me as much
As your new crush
Hey its delilah
Treat her good and let her know
She's the one you'll always run to
And she'll never be alone
Guess its my fault
Losing you was my f*cking fault
Please tell me why you never called
I'm broken and i feel so small
I'm in withdrawal
Oh its what you do to me
Oh its what you do to me
Oh its what you do to me
Oh its what you do to me
What you do to me
Dude....wth

I've never thought before that a song could bring plenty tears.
The 12 year old youtube videos with movie maker lyrics hit different. The old youtube “related videos” section was so much better than the current recommendation system. I would find and rediscover so much cool music. Now it’s just stuff I’ve already seen.

“Fun reminder: Delilah is a real woman who went to my college and was totally grossed out by this song, written by a man she was not interested in.”

That's sad af
Muhi exactly imagine someone who you don’t like at all makes you a love song with your real name even though you’re already in a relationship like that’s hella creepy and sad
Please say that this is a troll
Ouch
I know this great song from my elementary English teacher and I can’t thank her enough for showing us this great piece of art, I will never forget this song, nor her.
Oh such memories~ why can't the internet be like it used to?

Alas, I don't know why. What was it like, in the past?

These songs are the songs we need in our life.
*I really wanna bring this era back* 💕 :((
Sameeee😩
Such a beautiful and inspiring song ... I don't know if long distance relationships work but they must at least lighten loneliness. And in case you're single, whenever you're lying on your bed feeling lonely just think of how there is very probably someone, somewhere in the world, who's lying lonely too and who could be your soulmate :) In a way you would be thinking of each other though you don't know them :D .
Mylène Dawson I am in a long distance relationship and this is such inspiring input for this song
?.
Mylène Dawson they don’t work, and it’s better to be alone. Otherwise your heart gets ripped out of your chest and you can’t breathe. You can’t reason with the person, after they give up after years of love, because they aren’t near you. You can’t feel any happiness ever again. You take shit forgranted and ruin everything. You spend most of your time in calls and shit, wasting your life and dying inside but not knowing why. You think it’s love, it’s not, so you make yourself love them, then you destroy them, they destroy you... eventually someone dies. So after being with a girl who we were both adamant was my soulmate, for over 3 years online and I met her a lot of times in the last year of the relationship. I can tell you, never have an online relationship. It’s unhealthy, toxic and it isn’t real love, it’s a fiction of your imagination. I am now dead inside, thanks to the girl who was always trying to prove her love to me, when in the end she left anyway.
Cameron Dorgan don't worry you'll meet who is better than her believe me I can tell, but till that time I need you to be stronger ,I just know that you will pass it. Have a nice day🌷n god bless you.....
@@ONYXlON Well, that sounds like a pretty sad story. I don't know what you mean by toxic and how much it went wrong, but I'm sure you must have has several good moments, even though they seem now ruined by the fact the relationship ended. Don't say you're dead inside, you may be broke now but you can always rebuild yourself, rewire who you are and adapt to survive, no matter how life strikes you. I do believe that life is just like a war, and every hardship is just a battle to win. In the end, you can always stand and be proud of your evolution. Also, I do believe you do not need another human being to reach happiness. In my opinion, stable satisfaction and life can only be reached as you build them on your own because then it will never fall apart and you will never be disappointed. I wish you good luck for overcoming all this. :)
I remember my uncle singing this on an guitar, he lived in another country,and me, being the youngest kid, i had the smallest period of time hanging out with him,and i came over to my grandma's house(where my grandma,grandpa,my uncle and my aunt lived)because he was getting married,i still regret being young
OK, so I have heard this song in the radio 6 or 7 years ago, and fell in love with it. Since I didn't know the song's name, I was searching the crap out of... Well, everything. Since I'm a fan of Coldplay, I listened to their song called "Viva La Vida". was scrolling through the comments a bit, and saw this video called "Hey There Delilah" then, because of my utterly weird memory, I remembered that this song has words that sound like it. Of course, I almost broke my mouse in order to click this. After listening for a few seconds, a life milestone has been achieved. Thank you, video suggestions, I shall never call you dumb again.
That's the tale of the amazing me and this gorgeous song :D
You realize he's singing about a girl he was stalking....
arcus50400 Does my picture look like it cares? ;)
arcus50400 Is THAT what the song is about? O_O I though it was about a long distance couple and then the boyfriend wrote about the girlfriend.

Throwback to when songs were actually meaningful and good
When was that? The 2000's? Have you forgotten about Bump Bump Bump and Shake Your Tail Feather?
I KNOW I MISS 2008-2013
Still better than the shit we have now
Songs are 95% rap which makes no sense , doesnt even rhyme , doesnt even talk about anything with meaning and its just talking basically , disgusting
Songs are still meaningful, just not in mainstream pop I guess.
