2,5 years since my dad suddenly past. Kept the hurt inside until last week. I felt so miserable and sad for too long so decided to let it out. Played this song and immediately the dam broke...hard! Never cried so uncontrollably and long in my 37 years. Wrote my dad a letter the same day to thank him. Tears running down my face again now when typing this and listening to this amazing song that forever will be so special to me. Finally letting go of the pain. Thanks Volbeat.
+Vekemake I'd say your life is pretty miserable with that attitude actually. I'm glad a song can touch people's lives.. that's what music is all about.
+Bob Arends your dad must of been a really nice gentleman ...make him proud...like he is still here...I feel the same for my dad...he is long gone too...God bless you...and all fathers.
I never had a dad worth a shit, but this song inspires me to be the dad I always wanted to my children. Not their friend, but a strong, positive male figure to guide them throughout this crazy existence we have on this planet. Thanks Volbeat.
@Reece Liles.....Your comment brought tears to my eyes, I'm now 53, just had a birthday on April 3rd and all I wanted for my birthday, was to have my amazing family back. They're all gone now, brother -1995, Dad -2013 and mom - 2019......I bet you're gonna be, or you are, the best daddy in the world......
@@bearyhot Sorry to hear that about your family! All we can do is look fondly on the memories and be grateful for what we had. Thank you for your kind words, I definitely appreciate the encouragement.
My father and I often listen to this Song and went on Festivals and concerts with volbeat, enjoying life and rock'nroll together. He' was my hero! He died 4 years ago of cancer and said to me: sweetheart always remember life is good. I truly miss him every single day and now the song has a whole other meaning to me. Hope to see him soon and show him all of the success I've made since then. Love you 🖤
@@xXxHoI2I2oI2xXx ich denke er wäre sehr sauer, wenn ich zu schnell dieses Leben verlasse. Ich erlebe einfach all die Dinge die er nicht mehr erlebt aus tiefstem Herzen und erzähle es ihm wenn es soweit ist mit glänzenden Augen.
My father died 4 days ago. I always listened to Volbeat, but I paid attention to the lyrics and my heart skipped a beat. Thank you, it's not easy but I will go through
You Are Never Alone, my warrior, the sun brings freedom to your life every day. Never fall and stay down. Get up with the help surrounding you, it’s there. I’m here
My grandpa past away recently due to his COPD and he was a huge fan of Volbeat. My father (his son), my brother and me played this song at his funeral. We tried so hard not to cry while playing the song, but the line 'Cause the days no more the same without you' had us all in tears. I've never seen my dad so sad, yet so proud. Thank you Volbeat for being an important part of my grandpas life, you are without a doubt my favorite band forever.. ❤️
My Brother William an Zile passed on Nov 6 at 123 pm.....he was a drummer in so many bands..I will miss him every day...I listen to this band because this is what was playing when I got the news...I rushed to be at his side....Thank you Volbeat youve helped
My dad and I had a pretty fractured relationship the last couple years he was alive. I wasn't the son he wanted me to be and he was just the old man ragging on me. Then he died suddenly when I was only 19. I wish you would have been around longer pop. I think we could have been good friends. If you still have your old man in your life remember this Sunday is Father's Day ❤️🙏
If your dad is still with you… tell him that you love him and hug him! Edit: Lost my daddy last autumn.. He was my hero and my best friend. I know he's doing fine now, but I miss him so much.
TheSaucie1 It was science class, and we were allowed to listen to music, Volbeat is my favorite band I loved this song even before I lost my father, now it has a greater meaning
das war das erste Lied was ich von volbeat gehört habe und es hat mich Ewigkeiten verfolgt und ich wusste nicht wie es heißt bzw wie die Band heißt. nach ewigen Gesuche habe ich es gefunden und nun begleiten sie mich schon seit 7 Jahren. er schafft es jedesmal mein Herz zu berühren und ich singe immer aus vollem leibe mit!! ist und bleibt eine der besten Bands!!
anna jaquét mein freund ist gestorben und das war sein Lieblings Lied und zur Ehre habe ich es auf der Beerdigung gespielt also das dann noch black rose und Bohse Onkelz auf gute freunde aber R.I.P mein bester Freund 😣
I know he is singing about his father, but I think of my mom every time I hear this song. . . It was 15 years ago this past Saturday (the 12th), that she passed. I was 12, and almost everything happening in my life at the moment reminds me that she's gone. Enjoy your family, love unconditionally, and never hold back the "I love yous" or the random text messages/phone calls
I know this song has been out for a good while now…and after personally covering “Still Counting,” I decided to spend some time listening and viewing videos of theirs and I’m just blown away. The band is phenomenal, but Michael Poulsen has to be among those we call, the best! I’m blown away by his writing and composing. And this song especially, just brings out amazing emotions. The song has a powerful driving melody as well and the lyrics are unbelievably great! Words do no justice. Thank You Volbeat and may you all and your families be blessed with great health and please continue doing what you’re doing, till you all call it a day.
I lost my mom in 1994 - day I came home from phoenix Arizona - shortly after I turned down a gig - on the way to the gig mind you to present myself as a lead singer guitarist in front of Polygram, Sony, and one other. Some months - well six months later my 1st wife and I moved home and on that very day I walked into the house to meet my father and close friends to tell me my mom had died. The days are not the same without you mom. But VolBeat - this song especially - helps me feel better.
Feel the sadness burning in my heart You left to early, father love So many things I should have said But in your mind you knew it well Holding on to what I gotta love But things still seems so dark and cold The fire burning down my happiness But I will rise So proud and strong you truly was I took it with me as a tool A gift from father to his only son Watching over me with eagle eyes You gave me freedom to a life Where dreams are born and truly become real See me falling, yeah, down and lonely Are the angels on their way? I'm in the dirt Hear me screaming, see me bleeding 'Cause the days no more the same without you Promise my son you always will Cherish what you love believing in Never lose your values, stand up for the day Oh, dear father, I thank you for the years I'm writing this song on your desk Together we can make it through the day See me falling, yeah, down and lonely Are the angels on their way? I'm in the dirt Hear me screaming, see me bleeding 'Cause the days no more the same without you See me falling, yeah, down and lonely Are the angels on their way? I'm in the dirt Hear me screaming, see me bleeding 'Cause the days no more the same without you See me falling, yeah, down and lonely Are the angels on their way? I'm in the dirt Hear me screaming, see me bleeding 'Cause the days no more the same without you
This song came out right after my bro Kevin died after a very difficult, painful, multi-years' battle with cancer and I'll never forget pulling into the driveway and bawling my eyes out after hearing this and saying "this one's for you, Old Boy"
This and "A Warrior's Call" make me think about my father that I lost on 7.5.19 to Parkinson's. Wounded in Korea he went into the Medical Corp and earned the Bronse Star in Plieku for going out under the wire to retrieve the wounded during Tet. Humble, he made me a decent human being. Thanks for the great music Volbeat. He would have loved you guys. He taught me about modern music from the age of five.
Lost my father 2 years ago on 13.12.12 and there is not even a day without thinking of him. He passed away in front of me (I hat to close his eyes). I will always miss him and I thank God I am who I am cause of him; with good and bad (I am only human). I will also, every day of my life, regret the time wasted not being arround him (life took me away from my parents for years in foreign countries). I wish I could turn the time back and have my father with me. From now I can do only one think in my life: him proud of who I became. So don't waste the precious moments you have with your parents and keep respecting them and show them unconditional love nomatter how this life sucks......RIP Father 13.12.12
Same here scroll down and you will see I posted almost the same thing 4 years ago. I now come back to this song with the good memories. I still feel the loss but treasure the great times together. Love you Dad.
wow! I have listened to this song a 100 times or more. Then two weeks ago my dad was not feeling well and went into the hospital. Stage 4 Mesothimiala lung cancer brings new meanings to this song. Love you dad! Chris your first son.
My dad passed away on the 27th of Feb, exactly a month apart from my mum. My parents split up 15 years ago when I was only 12 and I only saw him once since then. But to me that doesn't matter. He was my father and the man who gave me the chance to be in this world. May both of them rest in peace and now finally be together again in heaven. Eternal love to them both and indescribable pain.
What a bad year this has been. I lost my father in April. One of my very best friends suddenly 3 weeks ago and found out today that another very close friend only has a month to live cause of colon cancer. Sitting here crying and waiting for 2017 it's got to be better than this year. To my father, Ricky and Pat I love you and will miss you.
Josh Walters lol I never said they weren't. I love metallica hendrix pink Floyd everything good lol they are legends in the making is what I was getting at and good music is hard to come by these days I think you missed my point
i never knew my father growing up, he had left before i was even born. he had no idea i was coming.. when i was 7 years old, i finally met him, this song touches a part of me that burns.. i always thought it was his fault that he left me. but i realized he had no idea. and he fought for me when he could.. i love my dad, and ill never forget what he did for me. stay strong everyone. and thank you Volbeat, for bringing me to my senses.
the lyrics: Feel the sadness burning in my heart. You left to early father love. So many things I should have said. But in your mind you knew it well. Holding on to what I got and love. But things still seem so dark and cold. The fire is burning down my happiness. But I will rise. So proud and strong you truly were, I took it with me as a tool. A gift from father to his only son. Watching over me with eagle eyes. You gave me freedom to a life, Where dreams are born and truly became real. See me falling, yeah down and lonely. Are the angels on their way? I'm in the dirt. Hear me screaming, see me bleeding. 'Cause the day's no more the same without you. Promise me my son you always will, Cherish what you love believing in. Never lose your values, stand up for the day. Oh dear father I thank you for the years. I'm writing this song on your desk. Together we can make it through the day. See me falling, yeah down and lonely. Are the angels on their way? I'm in the dirt. Hear me screaming, see me bleeding. 'Cause the day's no more the same without you. See me falling, yeah down and lonely. Are the angels on their way? I'm in the dirt. Hear me screaming, see me bleeding. 'Cause the day's no more the same without you. See me falling, yeah down and lonely. Are the angels on their way, I'm in the dirt. Hear me screaming, see me bleeding. 'Cause the day's no more the same without you.
Lost my dad almost four years ago and I just got into this band. This song hit me hard the first time I heard it. Hope to see Volbeat in my city soon. Thank you for this song.
One year, 6 months, and one day since my daddy departed from this temporary world into an eternal world... I miss him so much, but I know he's with me and protecting me. I will love you forever and ever, my beautiful guardian angel. 😢😢😢❤❤
21.11.23. At 22:06 i became a father. Thinking about my late father. Wishing he was here. But i know hes watching and his proud. Love you dad. Miss you. I hope to be like you.
18 years since my father has passed . This song heals my soul and. Brings my dad back to me and he sits next to me after all these years alone as I sing these words at the top of my lungs and the tears fall from my skull. By far the most amazing song ever . Thank you michael your words heal and do more then you will ever know !!
My best friend/brother died in 2010. I didn't find this song til 2013. Love it so much because I remember how much I loved him and never told him I did. I still miss you 2023. Never sad when I was with you.
Mein Dad ist jetzt seit über 10 Jahren verstorben, und das Lied gibt mir immer noch halt und ich denke an die schönen Momente mit ihm vielen dank dafür Volbeat
I lost my dad, my best friend, in 2005 two days after Christmas. This is the song I have been looking for ever since to express my feelings. THANK YOU!!! R.I.P. Dad...I miss and love you!!!
I lost my husband less than a year ago. I feel the pain of our adult sons. Their father died suddenly and unexpectedly at 51 years old. I sent this song to each of them and said, "If you could have a conversation with your father right now, it would go something like this..."
It's been 8 years since my father died on Father's Day of a brain tumor and it haunts me to this day. Every time I listen to this song my eyes well up and it takes all I have to not cry. I read my mom the first 3 lines of the song and she had me stop because she was going to start crying. It's amazing how music, especially this song, is able to bring out emotions that we hide so deep down in our hearts.
I just found this band thanks to TH-cam auto play and I love them. The lead singer's voice is very powerful and the band members are talented. I would love to see them in concert.
my daddy would've loved this band. he died 4 years ago and it still hurts every day. so many things he's missing. but I'll always be thankful for the 25 years I got with him.
I'm a 54 yr old woman and this band would have been HUGE in the 80s when there was head bangin rock! Yet all the band's that we rocked out to (Judas priest, scorpions, rush, Queen, motley cure, kiss, acdc, ozzy Osbourne, Ronnie James too and mettalica) just to name a few! ALL came out with a ballad too. It was the thing to do at the time. Volbeat woulda kicked ass! They do now! Love it!
First off, I love this song. I'm 41 and my Dad is 65. He was diagnosed with aggressive stage 4 cancer a few months ago and came to live with me a little over a month ago. I first heard this song and loved it before anything was going on with my Dad in my life. The comments were so sad to read, and then I have found myself in the same boat as so many. I listen to this song when I can, until one day it will probably become unlistenable when "that time" comes. Some of the most amazing songs are the hardest listens. The pain is worth it sometimes tho. I feel so bad for the people who have lost their Dads. I really don't want mine to die.
diese Band hat mir bei meiner sehr schweren erkrankung geholfen. Es geht mir wieder besser und deshalb höre ich jeden Tag "volles Rohr" Volbeat. Bin 60 Jahre und ohne Volbeat weiss ich nicht was wäre.
I lost my stepdad and I remember him showing me this song and every once in a while this song hits me giving me the memories I had with him to bad he is gone 😢
I fucking love my dad, I don't tell him as much as I should, but he knows well, hes probably the most important person in my life, if not only second to my mum. And when he goes I just hope he remembers I love him.
Five years. Five long years since my dad died of cancer. And my step dad of cancer the year before that. It’s amazing how much that can fuck someone up. Only over the last year have I picked life back up to “normal”. This is one of my favorite songs of all time but one that I can only listen to now and again because it gets me. Every. Single. Time. Thank you Volbeat for all your music but particularly this song.
Lost my grandfather 2 years ago. Still doesn't feel real. He was always the one that when we would lose a family member and everyone was mourning and crying, he would stay strong for everyone and though I knew he was hurting, he never showed it and it's hard to do that now that he's gone and when you lose someone like him, you feel like there's nothing that can help. But then I hear songs like this and I sing along, I just can't help but let it out and I feel better. It'll always be hard but music will always be there for any and Every person going through anything no matter how alone you may feel.
A couple weeks ago my uncle passed away, I barely knew him and probably said more to him in two days while he was unconscious in the hospital bed than I did in my whole life before that point. My cousin used this song in a video tribute and I listen to this song every day because it just helps me feel so much better
My dad pass away 30 years ago. The pain still burns inside. The first time I listen this song I've cried so much. I still miss him. You never know how much.
This song is for my father Last year we see volbeat in vienna and at novarock After one week since the volbeat concert in vienna my dad has a car crash and died ;( I love him so much
He wrote and dedicated this song to his father that passed away in 2008. This makes me think of my father who passed away on April 13,2014. RIP Dad I love you and, I miss you every day not a day goes by when I don't think of you. I cried so hard the first time I read the lyrics to this song.
I know the pain he's feeling in this song. I lost my dad January 15th 2018 and it still hurts the same as it did then. I was 16. The numbness I felt that day is still present today. Hold your dad's close. You never know when you won't have one.
This song means a lot to me, my dad or father. Well my parents divorce years ago and he still kept in touch, taking us for the summer or break but one time when we driving back to my grandfathers house, he showed me and my brothers and sister, Volbeat. He said to me, looked in my eyes deeply and said “This song is my song and it has a value to me, whatever you listen to this song. You always know that I’m always going to be here for you and your brothers and sister even if your mom doesn’t like me, this song is me never leaving you” those words touch me back then and I didn’t know what they mean but now I know. I still love my dad after years of resentment and distrust, I’m going to clean the air with him, knowing he’s not going be here forever.
Thanks. In this day and age when fathers and their importance in our lives are openly mocked, ridiculed and downgraded, it's nice to hear from some dads, to other dads and the children of dads about how important their father was for a change. Quit taking dad's out of our lives and recognize as we mature from childhood, we need them ever much more!
I’m still hella young and reading these comments are making be break hella hard man even though my dad isn’t here much anymore maybe once a year it makes me wanna cherish that once a year thing with my dad where we listen to music go on late night drives and go spend time together and this is one of his and my favorite bands hope you guys can find peace all of you
I lost my dad nearly a month ago..you played this in Dublin on Friday night, thank you..it's a beautiful song..it's so hard to put into words how I feel right now and this song does that ❤️
Ive yet to find a song by Volbeat that doesn't reach inside of me. It's crazy because, just when you think they can't do any better, they come out with something. I'd give ANYTHING to see these guys Live. Just never have the money...
***** I am as well - networking, programming, database admin, blah blah - created an internet retail business in the sticks of northern minnesota USA - I guess us geeks and musicians - well the two seem common among artists ;)
I think after so many years this is still my favourite song. Every lyric is fitting (except for "only son" because I'm my dad's second son) and every note touches me. I've lost my father more than 10 years ago and it ruined my life 'till a couple years ago, but this song still moves me :)
+PlayingGamezZ Oh I am sorry to hear that, my condolences buddy :( Be sure to hold on to the happy moments you had together and don't forget to live on because I didn't until I was 17 years old
Today is father's day... reading lyrics from this song, not only reading... singing and feeling too. Now I have one more reason to running out and hug to my father in his day :') Thanks guys :')
Two years ago today my dad died. It was completely unexpected...my mom died 6 weeks later...the pain never leaves me...I've just learned to live with it...Metal is my medicine...thank you Michael Poulsen for reminding me that Im not the only person on this earth who feels this emptiness...thank you VOLBEAT for getting me thru every single day and rocking my fucking world...I love you guys !
It’s been almost a year or been since I lost my daughter and this song keeps me going and I just hope one day you’ll here me scream for you and just no I’ve been falling since and kept in the dark I miss you Lola flett and I love you so much ❤️
I had a father and he was immensely abusive, and so you might ask why I comment here. because through me and the treatment given me years ago I and my family have healed. The reason I comment is that my children believe in this song and I could not be happier, because like you father- they have one they can believe in. Thank You for such a wonderful song, your father must have been a good man...RESPECT
Dad 1957-2010 not a day goes by I do not think of you and how wonderful heaven is for you. I hear this song and it does make me cry but happy tears. How I wish you could see your only grandson (my son). Get to hold him and teach him and still teach me. Love you Dad one day we will see each other again and what a day that will be.
2,5 years since my dad suddenly past. Kept the hurt inside until last week. I felt so miserable and sad for too long so decided to let it out. Played this song and immediately the dam broke...hard!

I'm sorry for your loss,

May She Rest In Peace. ❤
My dad and I had a pretty fractured relationship the last couple years he was alive. I wasn't the son he wanted me to be and he was just the old man ragging on me. Then he died suddenly when I was only 19. I wish you would have been around longer pop. I think we could have been good friends. If you still have your old man in your life remember this Sunday is Father's Day ❤️🙏
Felt this, I lost him in my arms 4 months ago to a heart attack, I will forever regret not talking to him these last few years
lost my father two weeks ago and found so much comfort in this song. heres to all those angel fathers looking over us.
That's awesome guys. What a great word. ❤
If your dad is still with you… tell him that you love him and hug him!
Edit: Lost my daddy last autumn.. He was my hero and my best friend. I know he's doing fine now, but I miss him so much.

You shouldn't be listening to Volbeat in class... unless it's music class...
Lost my Dad in High School, love this song.

Lost my father eight months ago. This song has helped me deal with the pain and grief.
das war das erste Lied was ich von volbeat gehört habe und es hat mich Ewigkeiten verfolgt und ich wusste nicht wie es heißt bzw wie die Band heißt. nach ewigen Gesuche habe ich es gefunden und nun begleiten sie mich schon seit 7 Jahren. er schafft es jedesmal mein Herz zu berühren und ich singe immer aus vollem leibe mit!! ist und bleibt eine der besten Bands!!
Bei mir war es genau so...
anna jaquét Dieses lied kann man nicht beschreiben ...das lied passt 1zu1 zusammen
anna jaquét English please!?

svantelikes games sorry for your loss
Keep going man I know how it feels
svantelikes games Keep rockin them drums man
svantelikes games Oh man, that is just awful. Pour that anger and sadness into those drums and become the best that you can.
I know it's hard at such an age but... well, someday you have to forget it to live a happy life
I know he is singing about his father, but I think of my mom every time I hear this song. . . It was 15 years ago this past Saturday (the 12th), that she passed. I was 12, and almost everything happening in my life at the moment reminds me that she's gone.
Enjoy your family, love unconditionally, and never hold back the "I love yous" or the random text messages/phone calls
I'm so sorry man.. Props to you for the very nice comment. :)
Your comment gave me massive feels. All the best buddy.
I couldn't care less.
***** Then don't comment fuck face!
dizzotizzo69 lol so true and dood im sorry about your mom! it sucks man
I know this song has been out for a good while now…and after personally covering “Still Counting,” I decided to spend some time listening and viewing videos of theirs and I’m just blown away. The band is phenomenal, but Michael Poulsen has to be among those we call, the best! I’m blown away by his writing and composing. And this song especially, just brings out amazing emotions. The song has a powerful driving melody as well and the lyrics are unbelievably great! Words do no justice. Thank You Volbeat and may you all and your families be blessed with great health and please continue doing what you’re doing, till you all call it a day.
I lost my dad 2 weeks ago and this song makes me cry every time. Thank you Volbeat for putting words and melody on my feelings.
T'estimo papa❤
My deepest condolences.
I lost my dad six months ago.. this song brings me comfort too. My deepest condolences
I lost my mom in 1994 - day I came home from phoenix Arizona - shortly after I turned down a gig - on the way to the gig mind you to present myself as a lead singer guitarist in front of Polygram, Sony, and one other. Some months - well six months later my 1st wife and I moved home and on that very day I walked into the house to meet my father and close friends to tell me my mom had died. The days are not the same without you mom. But VolBeat - this song especially - helps me feel better.
Feel the sadness burning in my heart
You left to early, father love
So many things I should have said
But in your mind you knew it well
Holding on to what I gotta love
But things still seems so dark and cold
The fire burning down my happiness
But I will rise
So proud and strong you truly was
I took it with me as a tool
A gift from father to his only son
Watching over me with eagle eyes
You gave me freedom to a life
Where dreams are born and truly become real
See me falling, yeah, down and lonely
Are the angels on their way? I'm in the dirt
Hear me screaming, see me bleeding
'Cause the days no more the same without you
Promise my son you always will
Cherish what you love believing in
Never lose your values, stand up for the day
Oh, dear father, I thank you for the years
I'm writing this song on your desk
Together we can make it through the day
See me falling, yeah, down and lonely
Are the angels on their way? I'm in the dirt
Hear me screaming, see me bleeding
'Cause the days no more the same without you
See me falling, yeah, down and lonely
Are the angels on their way? I'm in the dirt
Hear me screaming, see me bleeding
'Cause the days no more the same without you
See me falling, yeah, down and lonely
Are the angels on their way? I'm in the dirt
Hear me screaming, see me bleeding
'Cause the days no more the same without you
@ 🤘🏻🤘🏻🎸💖
@carina all love and how are you doing today?
This song came out right after my bro Kevin died after a very difficult, painful, multi-years' battle with cancer and I'll never forget pulling into the driveway and bawling my eyes out after hearing this and saying "this one's for you, Old Boy"
This and "A Warrior's Call" make me think about my father that I lost on 7.5.19 to Parkinson's. Wounded in Korea he went into the Medical Corp and earned the Bronse Star in Plieku for going out under the wire to retrieve the wounded during Tet. Humble, he made me a decent human being. Thanks for the great music Volbeat. He would have loved you guys. He taught me about modern music from the age of five.
Lost my father 2 years ago on 13.12.12 and there is not even a day without thinking of him. He passed away in front of me (I hat to close his eyes). I will always miss him and I thank God I am who I am cause of him; with good and bad (I am only human). I will also, every day of my life, regret the time wasted not being arround him (life took me away from my parents for years in foreign countries). I wish I could turn the time back and have my father with me. From now I can do only one think in my life: him proud of who I became. So don't waste the precious moments you have with your parents and keep respecting them and show them unconditional love nomatter how this life sucks......RIP Father 13.12.12
condoleante!
I'm so sorry for your loss
I am so sorry for your loss... I lost my grandfather a day before that on 12.12.12 and times have been so hard without him
Same here scroll down and you will see I posted almost the same thing 4 years ago. I now come back to this song with the good memories. I still feel the loss but treasure the great times together. Love you Dad.
wow! I have listened to this song a 100 times or more. Then two weeks ago my dad was not feeling well and went into the hospital. Stage 4 Mesothimiala lung cancer brings new meanings to this song. Love you dad! Chris your first son.
thanks Volbeat, you put me back in touch with my Father he's still alive and I cherish the days I have left with him.
My dad passed away on the 27th of Feb, exactly a month apart from my mum. My parents split up 15 years ago when I was only 12 and I only saw him once since then. But to me that doesn't matter. He was my father and the man who gave me the chance to be in this world. May both of them rest in peace and now finally be together again in heaven. Eternal love to them both and indescribable pain.
What a bad year this has been. I lost my father in April. One of my very best friends suddenly 3 weeks ago and found out today that another very close friend only has a month to live cause of colon cancer. Sitting here crying and waiting for 2017 it's got to be better than this year. To my father, Ricky and Pat I love you and will miss you.
Fucking legends ! Every song is amazing. Way to go boys bringing back real music with emotion and feelings behind it.
Aaron Mcleod really!!??? Metallica is legend, Jimmy hendrix is legend. these guys are great but far from legend
Josh Walters lol I never said they weren't. I love metallica hendrix pink Floyd everything good lol they are legends in the making is what I was getting at and good music is hard to come by these days I think you missed my point
Aaron Mcleod agxhggf jfdghuhzzuuiiiik
rock n roll...came from the heart!!!!
Aaron Mcleod I love this song and voice
i never knew my father growing up, he had left before i was even born. he had no idea i was coming.. when i was 7 years old, i finally met him, this song touches a part of me that burns.. i always thought it was his fault that he left me. but i realized he had no idea. and he fought for me when he could.. i love my dad, and ill never forget what he did for me. stay strong everyone. and thank you Volbeat, for bringing me to my senses.
the lyrics:
Feel the sadness burning in my heart.
You left to early father love.
So many things I should have said.
But in your mind you knew it well.
Holding on to what I got and love.
But things still seem so dark and cold.
The fire is burning down my happiness.
But I will rise.
So proud and strong you truly were,
I took it with me as a tool.
A gift from father to his only son.
Watching over me with eagle eyes.
You gave me freedom to a life,
Where dreams are born and truly became real.
See me falling, yeah down and lonely.
Are the angels on their way? I'm in the dirt.
Hear me screaming, see me bleeding.
'Cause the day's no more the same without you.
Promise me my son you always will,
Cherish what you love believing in.
Never lose your values, stand up for the day.
Oh dear father I thank you for the years.
I'm writing this song on your desk.
Together we can make it through the day.
See me falling, yeah down and lonely.
Are the angels on their way? I'm in the dirt.
Hear me screaming, see me bleeding.
'Cause the day's no more the same without you.
See me falling, yeah down and lonely.
Are the angels on their way? I'm in the dirt.
Hear me screaming, see me bleeding.
'Cause the day's no more the same without you.
See me falling, yeah down and lonely.
Are the angels on their way, I'm in the dirt.
Hear me screaming, see me bleeding.
'Cause the day's no more the same without you.
+Wouter van herten Thank you so much♡
+Wouter van herten it's i'm in the dew , not in the dirt
❤❤my favorite song
Thank you, I appreciate that!
+ramzeey SNoW google says otherwise
Lost my dad almost four years ago and I just got into this band. This song hit me hard the first time I heard it. Hope to see Volbeat in my city soon. Thank you for this song.
One year, 6 months, and one day since my daddy departed from this temporary world into an eternal world... I miss him so much, but I know he's with me and protecting me.
I will love you forever and ever, my beautiful guardian angel. 😢😢😢❤❤
21.11.23. At 22:06 i became a father. Thinking about my late father. Wishing he was here. But i know hes watching and his proud. Love you dad. Miss you. I hope to be like you.
my dad loved this song we played it at his funeral when I was turning 11
18 years since my father has passed . This song heals my soul and. Brings my dad back to me and he sits next to me after all these years alone as I sing these words at the top of my lungs and the tears fall from my skull. By far the most amazing song ever . Thank you michael your words heal and do more then you will ever know !!
My best friend/brother died in 2010. I didn't find this song til 2013. Love it so much because I remember how much I loved him and never told him I did. I still miss you 2023. Never sad when I was with you.
I'm with you, it sucks. I play this for my brother anytime I can. Just know he's shredding up in the big pie in the sky.
Mein Dad ist jetzt seit über 10 Jahren verstorben, und das Lied gibt mir immer noch halt und ich denke an die schönen Momente mit ihm vielen dank dafür Volbeat
this was my dad's funeral song along with a7x so far away \m/ xx love you dad xxxx
This is probably the best song i’ve ever heard. It’s happy, sad, all while being an absolute banger of a song.
I lost my dad, my best friend, in 2005 two days after Christmas. This is the song I have been looking for ever since to express my feelings. THANK YOU!!!
R.I.P. Dad...I miss and love you!!!
I lost my husband less than a year ago. I feel the pain of our adult sons. Their father died suddenly and unexpectedly at 51 years old. I sent this song to each of them and said, "If you could have a conversation with your father right now, it would go something like this..."
Dec. 2020 and who ever is reading this rock on and stay strong. We got this:)
Volbeat plays every day in my ears. The best band :)
It's been 8 years since my father died on Father's Day of a brain tumor and it haunts me to this day. Every time I listen to this song my eyes well up and it takes all I have to not cry. I read my mom the first 3 lines of the song and she had me stop because she was going to start crying. It's amazing how music, especially this song, is able to bring out emotions that we hide so deep down in our hearts.
I just found this band thanks to TH-cam auto play and I love them. The lead singer's voice is very powerful and the band members are talented. I would love to see them in concert.
my daddy would've loved this band. he died 4 years ago and it still hurts every day. so many things he's missing. but I'll always be thankful for the 25 years I got with him.
I'm a 54 yr old woman and this band would have been HUGE in the 80s when there was head bangin rock! Yet all the band's that we rocked out to (Judas priest, scorpions, rush, Queen, motley cure, kiss, acdc, ozzy Osbourne, Ronnie James too and mettalica) just to name a few! ALL came out with a ballad too. It was the thing to do at the time. Volbeat woulda kicked ass! They do now! Love it!
I still say this is the best live band I have seen in 20 years.
Volbeat, Judas Priest, Shinedown
Top three bands to see live.
You must be 50 plus like me! I have been waiting for something different to come along! Found It!!!!!!!!!!
Volbeat... The only thing that keeps me living... Literally.
First off, I love this song. I'm 41 and my Dad is 65. He was diagnosed with aggressive stage 4 cancer a few months ago and came to live with me a little over a month ago. I first heard this song and loved it before anything was going on with my Dad in my life. The comments were so sad to read, and then I have found myself in the same boat as so many. I listen to this song when I can, until one day it will probably become unlistenable when "that time" comes. Some of the most amazing songs are the hardest listens. The pain is worth it sometimes tho. I feel so bad for the people who have lost their Dads. I really don't want mine to die.
1 year since I lost my Dad. I miss him every day. Thank you Volbeat for keeping the memories alive for me through your music
I lost my dad 2 weeks ago I had some of the lyrics read at his funeral such a great song ! Very strong lyrics so true..
Dirt- Fishn Alabama Stay strong!
diese Band hat mir bei meiner sehr schweren erkrankung geholfen.
Es geht mir wieder besser und deshalb höre ich jeden Tag "volles Rohr" Volbeat.
Bin 60 Jahre und ohne Volbeat weiss ich nicht was wäre.
I lost my stepdad and I remember him showing me this song and every once in a while this song hits me giving me the memories I had with him to bad he is gone 😢
My dad doesn’t have much time left. I want to break every clock but I know that won’t stop time. I can’t go back. I’m not ready to lose him.
OneEaredFreek omg 😭😭😭😭
Ich hatte davon ewigkeiten einen Ohrwurm, wusste aber nicht mehr genau wie es heißt. Bin froh es wiedergefunden zu haben!! 🔥🥰
One of the best bands I've ever heard. I don't understand why more of their music isn't played in the USA.
I fucking love my dad, I don't tell him as much as I should, but he knows well, hes probably the most important person in my life, if not only second to my mum. And when he goes I just hope he remembers I love him.
Most bands hide the singers voice. You can't hide a true voice. Try as you wish it will never happen. God be with the ones who sign above the sound
Five years. Five long years since my dad died of cancer. And my step dad of cancer the year before that. It’s amazing how much that can fuck someone up. Only over the last year have I picked life back up to “normal”. This is one of my favorite songs of all time but one that I can only listen to now and again because it gets me. Every. Single. Time. Thank you Volbeat for all your music but particularly this song.
Lost my pops to heart failure 2 years ago, this song and many others really help me heal and come to grips that I am not alone in this journey.
My local radio station is playing two Volbeat songs. This is a sign of great success for the band.
Lost my grandfather 2 years ago. Still doesn't feel real. He was always the one that when we would lose a family member and everyone was mourning and crying, he would stay strong for everyone and though I knew he was hurting, he never showed it and it's hard to do that now that he's gone and when you lose someone like him, you feel like there's nothing that can help. But then I hear songs like this and I sing along, I just can't help but let it out and I feel better. It'll always be hard but music will always be there for any and Every person going through anything no matter how alone you may feel.
Black guy who loves Volbeat
this song makes me cry every time :'(
Cody Brown Me too😪
Same here. My grandfather was my dad.
I only stop crying 3 days ago
look beyond, God is your Father and he wants to tell you that he loves you more than you think
Eines der besten und schönsten Lieder von Volbeat, ich kann es Heute noch auf und ab hören, es wird nie öde, einfach Top.
A couple weeks ago my uncle passed away, I barely knew him and probably said more to him in two days while he was unconscious in the hospital bed than I did in my whole life before that point. My cousin used this song in a video tribute and I listen to this song every day because it just helps me feel so much better
My dad pass away 30 years ago. The pain still burns inside. The first time I listen this song I've cried so much. I still miss him. You never know how much.
This song is for my father
Last year we see volbeat in vienna and at novarock
After one week since the volbeat concert in vienna my dad has a car crash and died ;(
I love him so much
Benjamin Trabe ,,,, he will always treasure that you know that now is the best time for you to shine it's always been that way
Ben life is grand show the world who you are
Sad to hear that - as long as he's in your heart he never really died
😭
My dad i lost him all of a sudden one dreadful night! I had no chance!
He wrote and dedicated this song to his father that passed away in 2008. This makes me think of my father who passed away on April 13,2014. RIP Dad I love you and, I miss you every day not a day goes by when I don't think of you. I cried so hard the first time I read the lyrics to this song.
I know the pain he's feeling in this song. I lost my dad January 15th 2018 and it still hurts the same as it did then. I was 16. The numbness I felt that day is still present today.
Hold your dad's close. You never know when you won't have one.
This song means a lot to me, my dad or father. Well my parents divorce years ago and he still kept in touch, taking us for the summer or break but one time when we driving back to my grandfathers house, he showed me and my brothers and sister, Volbeat. He said to me, looked in my eyes deeply and said “This song is my song and it has a value to me, whatever you listen to this song. You always know that I’m always going to be here for you and your brothers and sister even if your mom doesn’t like me, this song is me never leaving you” those words touch me back then and I didn’t know what they mean but now I know. I still love my dad after years of resentment and distrust, I’m going to clean the air with him, knowing he’s not going be here forever.
What a brilliant band.
Rock on! 🤘
The singers voice sounds like the prolonged scream of a wounded and dyeing antelope
Thanks. In this day and age when fathers and their importance in our lives are openly mocked, ridiculed and downgraded, it's nice to hear from some dads, to other dads and the children of dads about how important their father was for a change. Quit taking dad's out of our lives and recognize as we mature from childhood, we need them ever much more!
Eine Hymne auf den verstorbenen Vater,kann helfen zur Trauer Bewältigung !!! Super Song krasse Band Volbeat
I’m still hella young and reading these comments are making be break hella hard man even though my dad isn’t here much anymore maybe once a year it makes me wanna cherish that once a year thing with my dad where we listen to music go on late night drives and go spend time together and this is one of his and my favorite bands hope you guys can find peace all of you
I lost my dad nearly a month ago..you played this in Dublin on Friday night, thank you..it's a beautiful song..it's so hard to put into words how I feel right now and this song does that ❤️
@andrea 🤘🏻🤘🏻🎸💖
Lost my great grandpa today after having had a stroke 3 days ago. This song really soothes me and helps get this sadness out. R.I.P 1918-2014
Volbeat kcks cheeks I've all I need my volbeat everyday then all through the day to allVOLBEATNIXS HELL YEA VOLBEAT S #1
Ive yet to find a song by Volbeat that doesn't reach inside of me. It's crazy because, just when you think they can't do any better, they come out with something. I'd give ANYTHING to see these guys Live. Just never have the money...
@ 🤘🏻🤘🏻🎸💖
at work in front of my computer rocking out to this song over and over and over and over
Sounds like you have an awesome job.
Same here! No matter how many times I replay it the song never gets old! Love this song so much and so touching!!!
Chris Boncza-Rutkowski i'm a designer/developer/programmer...so i blast music and just get in the zone :)
***** I am as well - networking, programming, database admin, blah blah - created an internet retail business in the sticks of northern minnesota USA - I guess us geeks and musicians - well the two seem common among artists ;)
I think after so many years this is still my favourite song. Every lyric is fitting (except for "only son" because I'm my dad's second son) and every note touches me. I've lost my father more than 10 years ago and it ruined my life 'till a couple years ago, but this song still moves me :)
Jorreborr Respect bro
Elias Lundqvist Thanks :)
***** Thanks :)
+PlayingGamezZ Oh I am sorry to hear that, my condolences buddy :( Be sure to hold on to the happy moments you had together and don't forget to live on because I didn't until I was 17 years old
everything too! (10years, last july)
but I'm his only daughter..
Feeling down and weak at the gym. Listen to Volbeat. Game over.
February 20,2014.......I love and miss you dad!!!
Da werden Erinnerungen an die schönste Zeit wieder wach
R.i.P my sweetheart ♡
8 years later it`s still one of the best songs in the world...
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
I'm a dad that never truly had a Father, I'm now trying to be a dad to my boys, despite my demons! This is to my 3! ❤
Today is father's day... reading lyrics from this song, not only reading... singing and feeling too. Now I have one more reason to running out and hug to my father in his day :')
Thanks guys :')
Two years ago today my dad died. It was completely unexpected...my mom died 6 weeks later...the pain never leaves me...I've just learned to live with it...Metal is my medicine...thank you Michael Poulsen for reminding me that Im not the only person on this earth who feels this emptiness...thank you VOLBEAT for getting me thru every single day and rocking my fucking world...I love you guys !
Metalmom Forever Same here Dad passed and 1 year later Mom gotta love volbeat
This is one of my favorite songs.. one that hits home and got me through my divorce . love vollbeat
Life is grand be better than before brother show them who you really are
Love you, Dad. You don’t have social media, but I love you.
Oh Honey, his media is soo much better than our social media! He loves you too
I lost my dad in December 2022. I can’t ever skip this song I cry every time. I miss you so much dad, I love you so much. Rest easy.
It’s been almost a year or been since I lost my daughter and this song keeps me going and I just hope one day you’ll here me scream for you and just no I’ve been falling since and kept in the dark I miss you Lola flett and I love you so much ❤️
Damn I'm so sorry for your loss. I'd die if I lost my daughter she's my world.
I had a father and he was immensely abusive, and so you might ask why I comment here. because through me and the treatment given me years ago I and my family have healed. The reason I comment is that my children believe in this song and I could not be happier, because like you father- they have one they can believe in. Thank You for such a wonderful song, your father must have been a good man...RESPECT
Thnx VOLBEAT! Awesome Gig in Stockholm this Friday! 29/11 2019 when u played Fallen 33000 fans screaming! So MAGIC!!
Dad 1957-2010 not a day goes by I do not think of you and how wonderful heaven is for you. I hear this song and it does make me cry but happy tears. How I wish you could see your only grandson (my son). Get to hold him and teach him and still teach me. Love you Dad one day we will see each other again and what a day that will be.
