Lyrics:
My feet are aching
And your back is pretty tired
And we've drunk a couple bottles, babe
And set our grief aside
The papers say it's doomsday
The button has been pressed
We're gonna nuke each other up boys
'Til old satan stands impressed
And here it is, our final night alive
And as the earth runs to the ground
Oh, girl, it's you that I lie with
As the atom bomb locks in
Oh it's you I watch TV with
As the world, as the world caves in
You put your finest suit on
I paint my fingernails
Oh we're going out in style babe
And everything's on sale
We creep up on extinction
I pull your arms right in
I weep and say goodnight love
While my organs pack it in
And here it is, our final night alive
And as the earth runs to the ground
Oh, girl, it's you that I lie with
As the atom bomb locks in
Oh it's you I watch TV with
As the world, as the world caves...
Oh it's you that I lie with
As the atom bomb locks in
Yes it's you I welcome death with
As the world, as the world caves in
As the world caves in

I feel like this would be a good song to play at that climactic moment in a film, right before a big explosion goes off, and everything slows down, and the cute moments the main character experienced earlier flash in warmer tones until the final seconds. Then the explosion flattens everything, and the screen cuts to black as the final notes play.
(YALL CAN STOP SAYING DEVILMAN CRYBABY NOW IT"S BEEN 2 YEARS)
anotherfreckledface oh no my emotions
YESSSS!!!
Like in rogue one!
i cried reading this this is EXACTLY what i pictured in my head
Im not okay with this maybe
This song hits different when you're alone.
It doesnt even heat it just froze
Yes
Heat lol
I've been alone most of the time so I don't know how to feel
@@Somnne ikr hahahahahahahahaha fuck!
when it hits the "girl, its you" the music swirls in my chest. never has death been so beautiful, man.
kae it’s so beautiful
It’s really something else
no lie. everytime it reaches that part I drop everything I'm doing "GIRRRRRRLLLLLLL ITSSSS YOUUUUUUUUUUUUU THATTTTT I LIEEEE AWAKE" I'm scheduled for therapy tomorrow
I always hear it as "IM GLAD ITS YOUUUU"
this makes me welcome death as something peaceful, yet sorrowful. nothing is fine but it’s all fine. you feel amazing even though you know this is it. death is welcoming, and calm.
Both me and my partner work high risk jobs, this is the song I’d want to be played at our wedding. I think of it as an acknowledgment of how fragile our lives are and to appreciate the time we have
I hope you're having a good life man ❤
Proceed with prosperity.
God bless you man.
God bless
conceal carry
Anyone listening to this during coronavirus season. It hits different
Me dude
too real
Cole Perry yep
:(
it really does 💀
This original song tooks over 4 yrs just to earn a million views and the cover by sarah already took 53m views just in 3 months... this guy deserves more!!

This song would probably be a classic if it was made in the 90s
Jazz 90s sounds more relax
It would be in a future
Omg yes!!
It’ll be a classic for us in the future lol
LITERALLY
*When the world ends, this song must play on the credits.*
this is the only comment like this i will agree with
When the Universe or our World Disappears, Either "the World Caves in" Plays or "Never gonna Give you up" Plays
Nonono, not the credits.
It'll play AS the world... You know... Caves in.
This... this is genius. If this doesn't play, I'm not dying.
Together with "What a wonderful world"
This song gives me memories that doesn't even exist.

Hahaha millennial discover imagination.
it’s called Anemoia
@@demkjavn you got isekaid
It does, for me
I love this original version more than the viral one! His voice is just so perfect with the music. So beautifully blended!
Fr
Discovered the viral 2 days ago... now this. They emulate diff vibes. Love both
He makes it sounds like it's sorrow fr,like the world is ending
Real.
The song itself doesn’t bring me to tears. But the imagery of them holding each other lovingly as they paint their tombstone? As they crawl into a casket together, embracing each other all the while? That fucking got me.
Exactly same. I heard it first just the lyrics. Then I cried my eyes out with that first scene you talked about.
oh cool, now i'm just bawling uncontrollably.
Yeah my reason for tearing up is the realization that im gonna die alone, im picturing myself on my deathbed just me and my pal SCP - 4999 smoking together

@@DangerNoodleReads im gonna add that to my reading list thank you
Sarah's cover is like the world is about to end. While Matt's original version is where the world already ends.
True
@@thepillowhead2453 To me sarah feels like a sudden death, they don't want it . This song feels like they it's reasonable to embrace death, and they already made up their mind to welcome death, just that they... want to live a bit longer too
@@kar6432 This is exactly Purple Hyacinth Ep. 105 AAAAAAAAHHHH Kieran's guy's version of the song and Lauren's the girl's
I feel like Sarah's cover is that she doesn't accept the fact that its about to end and wish that she could do something whereas the original feels like that he already accepted it and try to make his last moment as beautiful possible
I love Sarah's cover that song touched my heart
i always imagine it says “oh god it’s you...” as someone realizing they met the person they loved, but it’s too late, and they took them for granted. they realize they’ll die without the person they have only truly loved. it’s a sad ending.
this gave me chills??
Devilman Crybaby greatly describes the scenario youve created!! Check it out!! :))
Yeah I feel called out personally
Me too.
devilman crybaby :(
this was the song that played in my head as I buried my mother.
it will be forever marked, what beautiful music, a work of art.
Feel sorry for your loss, mate
Damn I'm sorry for your loss
I'm sorry for your loss
im sorry for your lost.
I'm sorry for your loss, keep being strong man, good luck🤞

@@unibunnii5520 bro broski get gud
Honestly it is rare that a song/piece of art brings me to tears, but watching this again, thinking about the world, life and love- this song is so incredibly deep- with the funny and dooming twist of the video, making light of an awful situation with love.. emotional, amazing art.
These are the songs that I will cherish forever.
This has the same energy as the old couple in the Titanic movie that are holding each other in bed as the ship sinks
:(
das deadass da scene dat broke me
Did you know that they were based on the actual people who died on the ship? The husband was offered a seat next to his wife on the life boat but refused to go because there were still women and children on the ship so his wife refused her seat to stay with her husband and instead gave it to their maid. They were described to be very in love too.
The mother tucking her children into bed and praying or telling them a story (I can never remember which) as their room fills up with water has always broken me
oh god i haven't finished the movie im sad now
When Sarah's version was becoming popular on Tiktok, I thought it was an okay song, but after hearing the original, I'm in love. I have no clue why this version didn't blow up because it is phenomenal
the sarah version is generic asf imo like it's a dehydrated version of this song. Doesn't give the same vibe
Cause it’s tiktok, dude. Only degenerates and societal parasites use that app.
@@NintenBricksFilms Gives a different vibe, and many liked that vibe including me. I dont like this song, which I came to listen after hearing Sarah's cover. It surprises me how people are still arguing of music tastes as if they're all in elementery school.
7.3 mil views...I think it blew up
@@OurHereafter Yeah, but compared to the 93 million views Sarah's cover got... Matt deserved more
This makes me feel so weak.. Physically and emotionally.
What do you mean?
it hits different around now haha
Please tell me
Ikr this song is breaking me
@Lesley Gutierrez True. Matt's subs have gone up so much since this pandemic started because of how different they hit during this whole thing.
This is sad because he made this song, but it seems he's just a stepping stone for someone to get famous. He deserves more love and appreciation!!
I’ve been feeling so trapped in my own mind recently and lost. This evening I looked out my window and saw a pretty sunset. Without hesitation I got out of bed and started running. I ran up a huge hill, got to the middle of a field where there were no people or houses. This song came on, and everything was perfect. I lay down in the grass and took in that sunset, it seemed unreal..... I literally have never felt the free after sprinting up that hill and throwing myself down on the grass. I felt so happy and free in that moment it was so perfect, almost too perfect. In the moment I realised everything happens for a reason and this song and that sunset didn’t happnen by chance, it happened when I needed it most and I sobbed my heart out alone on that hill.
This was beautiful (sorry if it sounds weird)
i love this and God loves you all too💖🥺
Damn sounds like heaven lol
I-...
this is perfect
Just imagine this song plays while the whole world is tearing apart.
damn, thats sad negl
atleast it would kinda be a happy ending
Whatchu talking about... It is...
Atleast it will be over.
No more pain and suffering
I'd accept death if this song was playing
When you’re trying to spend the last few moments of life with your wife before the nukes hit, but some dude ungulates his way into your house and starts singing and brings his depressed flash mob with him
And starts rubbing your head while you're bathing
I'm crying and then read your comment i cant- 🤣🤣💀💀💀🙈🙈🙈
LMAO 🤣
actually its abt his cat
I was in tears then this comment hit me and I started cackling
I JUST discovered this. It made my feel so much love deep in my heart for my wife and kids as i realized if it was all ending, I'd want to be nowhere else than hugging them to me. I've been going through a lot for a while now, and that feeling hit so HARD. I wasn't ready, man! What an amazing piece of music.
This is the music you listen to when the homies aren’t around
I can relate to this so much

Yes 😂
My homies are never around
@@JackChop i feel u
No cap, i genuinly thought this was a 1980-90 goldie until i realized this was made in 2018. This type of golden music will never die

It would be kinda ironic cuz of the Cold War
sameee i love this kind of music❤
death has never seemed so charming
andr exactly.
Cringe.
@@cosmicbilly not cringe true
When you type "as the world caves in" in google, it says it is made by sarah cothran and it even put the "oh boy its you". Its ridiculous Matt maltese deserve more!
yeah dude, that sucks
And the thing that sucks the most is that she has 119M more views on her cover. Thats some shit right there
i mean the same thing happened with the song "the man who sold the world"
@@bananarambo4118That just means a majority of people prefer her version. Doesn’t exactly mean he’s not getting “recognition” she’s just getting more because hers was more enjoyed. You can flaw people for what they enjoy.
@@michaelkunze2725or algorithms just recommend her version more, don't frame it like people prefer her version
I have never cried so hard to a song in my life.

This is true
I would say “same” if it wasn’t by the fact that me crying over “her final words” in sixth grade was not something I should be proud about

This song feels like the moment of realization that you can’t stop death,so you sit and you accept it and that’s such a painful bliss,knowing that you’re stuck for real this time,and your time is up
(Edit) and yes, memento mori ✨
I think it's about not giving a shit and being with the person you love. Being with the one that you love for the rest of time. I think it's more about love then death :)
the feeling that everyone in Hawaii must have felt when they got the nuclear missle warning.
@@Critterpedia0 this song is about trump fan fic
Gene Is Weird BRUH WHAT
just peãchy memento mori my friend, I came from the Unus Annus cult
Although this could be a social commentary on our world right now which would be wonderful, I also think it could describe a relationship that’s dying, and the two partners know it’s going to end soon but pretend everything is ok anyway. They act like they love each other and try desperately to keep alive a flame that they know already went out, and I think it’s a very powerful message especially since you can imagine the agony of losing hope in a once perfect relationship, and having to just watch it fall apart from the inside. I love the way Matt uses metaphors of death to describe love, as it can bring so much emotion into a piece. It’s so real sometimes it can be hard to listen to, which i think is very important; I love music that can challenge oneself.
OW
Camille Wetherell to me it’s the very opposite me and my girlfriend both listen to this and just vibe and cuddle it makes us very happy😊❤️
Camille Wetherell yo why did that make me cry :(
I’m actually pretty sure this song is about a couple in a timeline where the Cold War went hot
I think this song is actually the opposite. It's about loving someone unconditionally even in the worst of times "oh girl its you that I lie with,... etc... as the world caves in" the end it shows them together going into a casket, they're dying together.
I heard the cover first and now I’ve found the original. I know everybody’s comparing but Sarah of course sang it well but Matt, boy I watched this video with my jaw dropped the whole time. He exuded so much emotion through his voice and lyrics and the video is spectacular. So imo I prefer Matt’s. I just was floored. Not taking away from Sarah she has a beautiful voice. It’s just the level of emotion I get from Matt which is astounding.
fr with her it doesn't sound as depressed and full of sorrow as him
@@saeko0077i just want to get this off my chest here, Matt's is just way better suited for the theme and it ticks me off seeing people in the comments saying that Sarah's is better (i assume in terms of the emotion) but that's not the case for me personally.
did anyone else aggressively sob while listening to this for the first time or
consider this my like, but ur comment has 69 likes so uh :)
Yes
Yeah I do it every time bo
I didn't shed a tear but I felt a punch inside my chest
I'm currently going through this and I don't think I'm ok
I like the fact they are preparing for their own funeral happily, like it's a fun activity. It's a metaphor of how love turns something terrifying into something beautiful
@@user-rs6ue2rk6s oh
@@user-rs6ue2rk6s AKA fun activity
Ohh my interpretation was that on its current course the world is fucked and will probably end with a war lasting only hours and the couple in the video have accepted and come to terms with their imminent fate and instead of panicking they're gonna face it together and just love each other till their end. If it does come to this I can't think of a better way to spend my last hours
no shi

Sped up version of this still sounds amazing....
this song reminds me at the last part of devilman crybaby while akira and ryo were just laying down on the rock. Ryo was talking on and on , reminiscing about their younger selves but there is no reply from Akira. Then it finally hits Ryo that Akira is dead and he just started bawling even though he have never cried before nor know how crying feels like.
i’ve seen so much dmcb stuff about this song lately ugh 😭
Even Sadder: You can see Akira's face shift from normal into the part where is mouth hangs open and his eyes are dim. This means Akira was listening to the first part of Ryo's speech, but before he could respond, he passed away. Sad shit.
oh my god i remember finding that out for the first time and just wanting to bawl my eyes out istg
“Akira... why am I the only one talking...?”
Even tho i knew akira was going to die i cried so goddamn hard 😭😭😭
Please dear God, somebody put this man on a movie soundtrack.
You sir, have beautiful way of creating a whole environment and evoking it through your music. Incredible and inspiring story telling.
i personally prefer this version. don’t get me wrong, sarah’s cover is nice as her voice is amazingly powerful, but the emotions are captured more subtly in a greater, raw depth in this one. matt’s tone and slight accent also gives an old type of feeling that makes it more resonating and beautiful.
tbh matt really deserves more recognition and love, his song is all over tiktok yet he isn’t getting as much recognition as the cover and it’s sad.
right :(((
same here. even though i listened to sarah's cover first, matt's original made me so emotional
I dont agree with matts accent however I truly agree that this video really does capture the emotion in this song. I want sarah's singing over this video. that would be perfect
@@jaelbondoc1712 SAMEE SAMEE
Amen brother
This song feels so special, especially because when someone makes such a incredible hit of a song they usually milk it,but Matt lets the song breathe and doesn't try to milk it.
So is no one gonna talk about him coming out of the shower curtains and casually stroking the dude’s hair?
Was looking to see if anyone else noticed that
He was just checking to make sure she had lathered him up properly
xddd lol
That shit was gay but the song goes hard 😂
So kind of him
does this make anyone else cry or am i just sensitive lol

@@Kirill-rc5ng i dont see the correlation
this song literally made me cry. like actual goosebumps formed and tears ran down my face. i have never experienced anything like this. i felt the lyrics, tone, and message this song gives in my heart.
Same I was all sad listening to it but watching video really did it
I highly suggest “to build a home” it has the same vibes, in my opinion
Or “in this shirt”
This song makes me feel so sad. Like I would let the person I love hurt me over and over again just to have them in the end, but I know that would never happen.
음악이 마치 나의 감정을 대변해주는 듯한 느낌이에요. 정말 감명깊게 듣고 있어요. 이 곡은 마치 마음의 문을 열어두고 따뜻한 감정이 스며들게 만들어주는 것 같아요. 보컬의 매력과 음악의 조화가 정말 멋져서, 끊임없이 반복해서 듣고 있어요. 여러 번 들으면서 고민에 잠기게 되네요
My new favorite song to cry to at three in the morning
I really do love how this song feels anxious, defeated, and yet accepting. There's nothing that can be done but for them to spend their final moments together. It's knowing the bombs are coming, without a doubt they've been launched, but not knowing how much longer until they hit. There's no use in panicking, it's not comfortable knowing it's coming, but it is comforting to be with somebody you truly love.
wow
So true that it’s almost poetic
WOW, your words.. thank you.
@Fernanda Santos I mean, I guess everybody interprets everything differently.
I can't personally see that, especially with them doing everything together happily and then getting into the same casket.
@Fernanda Santos wow, nice interpretation of the lyrics. I personally only thought of actual nukes dropping and not their marriage. But if the lyrics actually symbolize divorce then I'll be damned. You're 10 steps ahead
LMAO SOMEONE SAID “best cover yet” IM CRYING
😂😂😂
I’m ded
WH5A
did they though
WHAT LMAO 💀💀💀💀
This song hits different when you’re alone
Sarah's cover and the original give off different vibes to me. Sarah's is one of desperation and fear. Like you can see the end nearing and you know its futile but you can't help but still struggle and rage against it. The original is more languid, content. Instead of despair, there's just nostalgia and a quiet sadness. A longing for something more mixed with fondness. Like you can see the sky falling, the huge ball of fire that's coming right at you, and you're sitting on the porch with a beer in hand and a smile of acceptance on your face, ready for the world to cave in.
I agree with you. Equally beautiful but different emotions. I love both and I'm glad I listened to the original as well.
Such beautiful summary warghh
Exactly! They're both beautiful like the same song but different emotions and feelings.
Damn you made me cry
i love this comment
Both cover and the original hits hard.

the cover is cute but a tad overrated.
the original deserves more love and views.
both gave me goosebumps so it doesnt matter
@@maggyfrog yep
@@maggyfrog for sure! Nothing beats the real instruments and drums in the original ☺️
Both hold significant differences making them as perfectly unique and amazing
This song shatters my heart every time I listen to it. The nuclear threat horrifies me beyond words, keeps me awake. It's so depressing to think that humanity is willing to end lives like that-and maybe even end the world. Why would we do that? There is no good reason. No one should ever have that much power.
On a much less horrifying and depressing note, it kinda reminds me of Arthur and Ford from Hitchhiker's Guide-dunno why.
I never made that hitchhikers guide connection. I’m glad you pointed that out.
@@abrahamstalker6785 ty!
The song is romantic as much as it is sad; it really gave that "till death do us part" commitment between the bride and the groom an emotional depth.
This is why I love this song so much; it has been my favorite since the first time I heard it and will remain so until I breathe my last breath.
This song makes my chest get tight and brings me to tears in a way that music rarely does. It just captures this really beautiful, desperate energy. Thank you for this song
i feel u on this
I cant get through singing the chorus my throat just closes as my eyes fill with stupid little tears
It depicts love during the end of the world in a very unique and wholesome way
same her
You might just be having a heart attack
i don’t think a song has damaged me emotionally more than this one has.
This reminded me of "seeking a friend for the end of the world"
Very beautiful song..
Love that movie! It wrecked my heart though
THATS WGAT I WAS THINKIN
I was thinking that too, it’s what drew me to the name of the song to listen to it! One of my favorite movies with a great song reminding me of it
RoxieCotton that was such a sad movie, but it was great :((
I was crying because it reminded me of a show I watched and now I’m crying harder thinking about the movie 😭
5 years ago when my loved one passed away, this song was with me. Felt like the world was burning. I was sitiing on my backyard's grass in the heavy rain. Everything felt really heavy , so as the rain. After these years , its still with me at my lowest point. Thankyou so much Matt Maltese.
I’ve only heard one other song besides this one that made me cry this hard. There’s something about this song that is so gorgeous and deep and makes me feel nostalgic for a lover that I had in a past life. It is so incredibly beautiful and I want more people to know about it.
omg same. usually songs have the sound sad for me to cry but this one has made me cry for hours on end lmaooo
Toussaint, Destiny It’s Six by Sleeping At Last. I took the enneagram test and got six, and I cried so hard listening to the song because it reminded me of so many things about myself
I cried. I’m just big sad for some reason.
Honestly, one of the most beautiful songs I've heard
Bunobro Reese Agreed, like nothing I've ever heard before.

This song is so criminally underrated. Makes me mad how people give the cover more attention then the original, the music and singing in this version has so much more emotion. The way he says the line at 2:44 gives me chills

Just saying I have a lot of free time, ENJOY THE ENDING SCENE OF A MOVIE (that I made up now)
[TW: suicide and self harm] Now, think of this: 5 characters, 4 scenes. A dancer making her final presentation having to smile. A couple sitting in a roof top joking around while both looking tense but trying to hide that. One teenager looking out of their window in a 10 floor building, the sky is pinkish and is very polluted, out of the building is a very busy city with people stealing food and objects. Another teenager hiding in their bathtub holding a knife and looking at it curiously. The scenes changes with the song. As the chorus come, the couple are now drinking something, the dancer does not pretend to smile anymore, the person is the window leaves the window and the teenager in the bathroom looks in the mirror. As soon as the chorus ends, a scene of the couple painting each other’s face laughing, cuts to the teenager is the bathroom having bloody hands and their sleeves completely soaked of blood. The person in the window has scissors. The chorus starts and when the part saying “the earth runs to the ground” the dancer takes her final bow, the couple tilt their heads to each other, the person is the bathtub hugs their knee and the person jumps out of the window. The next scenes are the dancer leaving the theater and going to the beach, where she throws her pointe shoes in the water and lays down in the sand. The person is the bathtub collides as the bathtub is filling with water mixed with red. The person finally reached the floor and you can see a glimpse of the dancer on the background, as people pass through the dead body not caring about it, even stepping on it. The couple looks at themselves and smiles as a bomb explodes in the background
wendy • lets not bring evangelion into this cuz then I really will cry
the instrumental in this is phenomenal he deserves more views
I honestly love both versions. Both invoke a different emotion and it's impossible to choose which is better.
I honestly see this as the song that plays during the credits after the world ends.
Yes, finally someone who isn’t hating on sarah, at least she made the song more known. Just saying
Sarahs one is just full of auto tune without it you just cant feel the emotion as much
Your name gave me a heart attack
@@alyayad2294 lol
both versions?
Man we've straight up failed as a society when this song is so grossly underrated, I appreciate the cover's husky melody, but the clean clean vocals of this piece here are by no means any inferior, add to that the beautiful video, it's a whole vibe. Such a shame he's not more recognised.
weve also failed as a society to have atom bombs and they still lie waiting to be used one day , hopefully never again
Maybe because alot of people like woman voices more
Agreed he should be more recognized more
@@tessacyclone6329 are you suggesting we use them?
@@eelisparkkinen the cover has 72 million views. The original is still underrated
the couple: chilling and being cute
matt: jumps out and sings randomly and becomes a third wheel
LOL
Hes the simbolism of the death, walking beside tgem. Kmow what woukd they do later.
It would hit u much different if u think it like that.
@@harismawar7684 bestie it was a joke lmao
@@averyconfusedworm5902 Ouh, sorry then XD
@@harismawar7684 it's fine lmao 😂
*Massages the guy's head gently*
been listening to this song for a couple of years now and I've finally watched the music video.
strange but good.
Imagine this came out during 1960s when the fear of nuclear warfare was at it’s height.
Edit: Nevermind now’s a great time
I feel like it has perfect time now too
@@nevestelling662 thank god nuclear fallout chances now are quite low
@Ryo Keep pretending if it helps you sleep brother!! Jesus be with us all who are worthy!!🙏🙏💖💖
@@JakeViolaMan well it's true because even though people are at each others throats NO ONE wants nuclear war because there wont be a winner in the end so that common knowledge makes the use of nuclear bombs Impractical, thatbeing said there is still risk, I mean we got a wepon way beyond our time. we arent advanced enough to contain something so powerful
@@ryo3757 Think about what you just wrote and think about a particular country whose current focus is just that. If you don't understand what their agenda is about, I am more scared for you than what will happen in the very near future.
A few months ago I proposed to my girlfriend because this song. It was the only thing that I needed to be convinced that it was the right moment. I felt inmediatly like if the doomsday comes, I want to be with her. Mr Maltese, you were part of that great decision in my life and I am very thankful for that!
P.S. She said yes!
Congratulations 🍾
Congrats!
Congratulations!
that's so wholesome
Congratulations! 🫡🥹
“Akira.. why am I the only one talking..?”
DARIA OGANESIAN IT HAD ME LITERALLY SOBBING
C h l o r i n e STOPPPP 🤧🤧🤧
NOOOO i just finished watching it and have had this song on repeat 😭😭
mk nich same honey same 😭😭
Thanks to u I’m drowning in tears.
This song is amazing and I have become obsessed with this man the past week. Some of his new songs that he released on his album this year are top notch.
*"love doesn't exist. therefor, sorrow doesn't exist either."*
Devilman crybaby😭
It's even sadder to think that someone can die alone. Without someone to sing this song to :(
damn screw spiders this is my new fear wtf I-
I'll probably be the one to die alone🙃
Why did you call me out like that
It's really terrifying to think of
A classmates sister died like that a few years ago and it was truly horrible-
Heard the Sarah C version first, then researched the original. He deserves most of the credit because he wrote the song and it captures the original melancholy dissonance I think it was going for.
But hers is so haunting and pain filled. Just shows you how a key change in a song can change the vibe and how it’s perceived.
In love with both.
Sarah's version is good but I like this one more.
I like the original, and you pretty much summed it up for me.
I knew Sarah's cover from Jaden Williams clips and fell in love with the lyrics. I looked up for the original and it's so much better.
Sarah's take on the song sounds much less pain filled if you ask me, mostly due to less instruments, it's still good but it'll never reach the original unless there's more going on with the song
@@pianoman5259 also its so autotuned it doesn't sound like a person genuinely singing to their partner
She sounds like that stereotypical white American girl trying to sing "ooohhaaaa" noise
Not unique at all
I can't listen to this without shedding a tear... It's just too real
I heard Sarah’s cover on Spotify and instantly fell in love with the song. I had initially thought hers was the original. It’s a shame Spotify doesn’t play the original more often. It has a certain vibe that truly moves you.
She didn’t credit him enough and basically everyone thinks it’s her song. It’s so annoying
@@alissawithtics4172 I agree to this. This man deserves so much more credit.
I actually got his from Spotify first.
Thank God spotify advertise the og song for me
The original isn't on Spotify??
no one:
devilman crybaby fans: *loud sobbing noises*
Mood:
😭😭😭😭 why are you reminding me again!
TechnoBlade appologists: Let me introduce ourselves
I don't get it was þis song in þe show? I don't remember it þere.
@@c4rbonDiox please my lord stop using thorn within peasant forums, theyll catch on
This song would be perfect in a movie about the world ending in that moment
Im crying after watching a season of a series ✋😃🤧🤧🤧
Obviously
The end of the f**king world 😂
Like avengers end game
Too late, Sarah Cothran made it on TikTok
this is one of the only pieces of media to ever make me cry
Matt Maltese better be the artist for the next James Bond movie's opening, just saying
Honestly that would be amazing
Aaaand it's Billie
Jojoline Carlin yikes
Zeina H. Chaudhry I hate to break it to you-
Sorry bro. Billie won
such a beautiful song, don't get me wrong the cover is great. but this, this is something else entirely no other song compares to this.
the incredible vocals, beautiful instrumental. the song has its own story. I don't know what more you could want from a song.
perfection.
Paint it black by The Rolling Stones maybe?
I agree, I don't know why Sarah's has more views than the original.. it's honestly kinda sad
My girlfriend and I had our first kiss to this song, once the song came on we couldn’t help it..sht just happened
Yes... Expecially when it makes you tear up...
@@thatonevideo1875 most likely because of simps idk
This is so beautiful. It’s a different kind of romantic
Imo I think it's about loving someone even when the world around you is literally going to shit. It's about unconditional love and its beautiful. The love everyone should strive for
Jd Of when you say “i think it’s about..” idk if you mean what you personally think it’s about or what it’s actually about but, the characters actually represent the usa president donald trump and the uk prime minister Theresa May getting passionate with each other after launching nuclear warheads- i apologize if you do know this but i’ve seen a lot of comments saying this song is about a cute loving couple knowing everything is about to go to hell but, it’s not
@@si.elliott428
How in the hell do you know this?
Jd Of i’ve read at least three articles on this song?? just look up “as the world caves in meaning” lmfao
This song sounds like heaven but hurts like hell.
this is the most underrated song ever. this song just.. like I literally can’t stop crying.
*edit. omg im in my famous era.
ITS ABOUT A LOVE STORY BETWEEN DONALD TRUMP AND TERESA MAY ASKSBSHSHHJSBHVDHJBSHBSJHSVJHDVHJSBHJ
@єllα_вєαи yeah he said it in an interview 💀💀
I believe he said it no longer means that but I could be wrong
@@experience0. no thats head cannon for me for now on
혹시 한국인이신가요..?
Everyone is talking about the cover song and no one is talking on how this video is sooooo good and sad and gives the right mood to the song
I mean c'mon they hugged each other before getting in the same coffin and they wrote their own names on their crosses
tragic
Yes i agree my dude and when they went into the same coffin a held back my tears
literally everyone’s talking about it
@@natasharomanoff4825 nice pfp Natasha Romanoff
@@honeybee8299 thanks I like yours too
It’s ok we all know we all cried to this
I cant cried
It's the song i used to cope from my great grandmas death
Def when u know is abt theresa may and donald trump
@@netherborn3261 I WAS GONNA SAY THIS
i laugh because i now know what it’s about
I see no comments about the music video like ??????????? Dude the video is so sad and yet so beautiful at the same time, people finally accepting their end and leave this world in peace together ! The producer is a genius for this one
I actually fucking cried I cannot with this song. It’s just the feeling of defeat but also the acceptance that this is it and that you spending your final moments with the people you love is the only thing that really matters
you can't not cry listening to this song.
Change My Mind.
Same. This shit hits different.
I absolutely felt so sad while listening to this and I can relate too.
Upsettingly, I've heard ftom somewhere that he wrote this as a "humorous" song about Donald Trump and Theresa May nuking the world in a "romantic" way. Luckily, it isn't fully confirmed though.
The song I hear when I see my friends online log. (it has been 4 yrs):
My mom have a cancer and listening to this song makes me cry, it feels like its connected to this song
Same :(
I dont want to lose her because shes my only family left my father left us and the cancer she have is advanced stage most likely months of living everytime i remember i cry i cant do anything just cry i love my mom so much but i cant change the fate
@@kentsalinas1647 I’m so sorry bro I’ll pray for you and your mom every night. Just remember even though I don’t know you, you’ll have my love and support. 🙏
@@hadlymcmuffin big thanks bro, even though i dont know you, you still help us, our relatives doesn't care about us thanks because there are people in internet that helps you.
Sorry to hear man hope she gets better ❤️.pray to god he can save her put ur trust in god ✝️
Why is everyone talking about the cover here? They're both their own things and have completely different feels to it. But seriously, Matt deserves so much more recognition for this.
People gettibg mad at people they dislike under a song who say to pardon everything and embrace the end.
In MY OPINION i think the original is better than the cover
I agree, I think that the cover opinions belong in the comment section of that video
True, everyone is always talking abt sarah. And why is no one talking about him?? I didn't mean to hate Sarah, her voice is good tho, but Matt need more attention
It's because the exact same thing you said at the end my friend, how the cover literally eclipsed the original making it underrated
This song genuinely deserves more attention.
It's got a shit ton of streams on spotify fym lmao
