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.. ❤️
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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 !!
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.
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.
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
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.
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 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!!!
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.
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.
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 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.
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.
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.
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.
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!
This song is so important to so many poeple. As well as this band. My grandpa passed away a few years ago and i can barley listen to this song without crying. Again. Thank you so much for giving us this amazing song and many other amazing songs. I love you guys so much
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
This guy's voice is just AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!! And the band's sound... 18 years later, waiting the concert in brazil, in december 2024, i will be there!!!!
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"
I lost my father in 2013, my mother in 2020 and my grandfather in 2021. This song describes the feelings perfectly and after I heard it, I started listening to more of Volbeat and I must say all these guys are extremely talented. Awesome band and meaningful lyrics. Love you guys!!! Keep it up!!!
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.
This song is just a personal masterpiece. It has so much meaning and emotion put into it and you can really understand what Michael is writing this song about and how he feels about and it’s just so amazing! I love that about all of the older Volbeat songs on how they all had a deep meaning behind them and it amazes me how they are able to express the emotion with more than the lyrics. I will always be a big fan Volbeat and they will always be my favorite band❤️ Guten Tag!!
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 ❤️🙏
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 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.
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.
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 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.
My favorite band, my favorite song, I rarely play it. It hits me so hard I can't help but cry. .. Seeing you guys again for the 5th time in LA Hollywood Palladium. Can't wait. Thanks again guys!!!!
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
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
Lost my mom on October 8th 2023. I had always bragged about Volbeat and how awesome they were. Same with Dying Light and other things I was interested in. She was always interested in what I liked talking about. I even showed her this song. Sadly, when we both went to the hospital on the same day (my father took us for different reasons), she never got to come home. Nothing is the same without her, and sometimes I wake up expecting to see her and hope she asks how I am. I miss you mama.
I’m so so sorry, I’ve read so many comments just like this over the years, for some reason your hit me hard, I’m sitting here crying like l knew her, it physically hurts. I’ve never experienced that reading comments before, weird,IDK, but I feel the need to tell you, I Love You and I’m writing your name down and I will pray for you now and every time I read it, I feel like I’m supposed to, and so I will🙏🏻❤️❤️ Remember, we are eternal beings therefore we are never real gone , just a different form. She’s right there with you and always will be❤️ I’ve never said anything like this to a total stranger before, but I feel compelled to so, take it for whatever it means to you❤she loves you so much and she right there with you and she always will be.❤️🕊️❤️ Im sending you all the love I can feel right now, all I can say is it has to be coming from her because I don’t know you and I can feel it❤️
@@staceyradcliff3484 This has to be the most thoughtful reply I’ve never imagined to get over the internet. Thank you for your concern and care, even for a peon such as myself.
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.
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 ❤️
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
Sometimes I forget just how good this album was, and this brings me back around... "cherish what you love BELIEVE in it" my favorite line in the entire 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.
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.
My dad left me before i was born and ive only seen him once my grandpa filled in but his memory is starting to slip and hes lost his strength.He was the most strong person ive ever met its hard because everything has changed with him but i spend all the tine i can get because one day he will be gone he taught me how to be a man and this song helps me deal with it.
he was my parent to my mom worked three jobs a week when I was 8 til I was 14 I never had a stable home because my mom moved alot and my grandparents farm is mine he taught me life lessons I could have never learned
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. 😢😢😢❤❤
Wow...... I needed this song alot here lately. My Dad Jerry Whitehead passed 8 years ago. My Mom passed away last month. Beverly Whitehead. they were married 49 years. Thx for the song!!!!
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
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.

Never knew my dad

Glassman823 Its written right
Eines der besten und schönsten Lieder von Volbeat, ich kann es Heute noch auf und ab hören, es wird nie öde, einfach Top.
This is probably the best song i’ve ever heard. It’s happy, sad, all while being an absolute banger of a song.
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.
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♡

Thank you, I appreciate that!
+ramzeey SNoW google says otherwise
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.
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.
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!
This song is so important to so many poeple. As well as this band. My grandpa passed away a few years ago and i can barley listen to this song without crying. Again. Thank you so much for giving us this amazing song and many other amazing songs. I love you guys so much
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
This guy's voice is just AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And the band's sound... 18 years later, waiting the concert in brazil, in december 2024, i will be there!!!!
This guy's voice is magical, i dont know why but i love it
Stacy Schauls so true ❤
Elvis+danzig = magic
Stacy it's because when you got it you got it : ) I Love it too
it is indeed!
Stacy Schauls he's foreign and knows English better than me
My local radio station is playing two Volbeat songs. This is a sign of great success for the band.
Feeling down and weak at the gym. Listen to Volbeat. Game over.
my dad loved this song we played it at his funeral when I was turning 11
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 song makes me think about my dad. May he rest gently in peace. We never had a great relationship but I miss him regardless.
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 :)
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 lost my father in 2013, my mother in 2020 and my grandfather in 2021. This song describes the feelings perfectly and after I heard it, I started listening to more of Volbeat and I must say all these guys are extremely talented. Awesome band and meaningful lyrics. Love you guys!!! Keep it up!!!
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!
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 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.
My dad passed 6 years a go now Everytime I hear this song I shed some tears thinking about all he taught me on how to be a good match. Thank you!
This song gets me every time; I lost my grandmother and a year later my daughter. One of my favorite songs.
Five stars!! This is awesome stuff, can't get enough Volbeat!! Louder please
This song is just a personal masterpiece. It has so much meaning and emotion put into it and you can really understand what Michael is writing this song about and how he feels about and it’s just so amazing! I love that about all of the older Volbeat songs on how they all had a deep meaning behind them and it amazes me how they are able to express the emotion with more than the lyrics. I will always be a big fan Volbeat and they will always be my favorite band❤️ Guten Tag!!
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
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.
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.
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.
Great tribute to his Father and to Fathers everywhere! What a great tune!
Still one of the best songs ever.
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
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.
Wow reading all thses comments remind me of how sad my family was after my dad died. Its so sad and sad but also kind happy to remember him
this was my dad's funeral song along with a7x so far away \m/ xx love you dad xxxx
One of my new favorite bands, heard them in the radio and instantly fell in love. C:
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.
becoming one of my favorite bands!!! lost my dad 10 years ago to cancer. This song is so good.
Thnx VOLBEAT! Awesome Gig in Stockholm this Friday! 29/11 2019 when u played Fallen 33000 fans screaming! So MAGIC!!
My favorite band, my favorite song, I rarely play it. It hits me so hard I can't help but cry. .. Seeing you guys again for the 5th time in LA Hollywood Palladium. Can't wait. Thanks again guys!!!!
One of my absolute favorite Volbeat songs :)
Lost my father 2 years ago today. This song helps immensely.
This is my favorite song by Volbeat.
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
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
Lost my mom on October 8th 2023. I had always bragged about Volbeat and how awesome they were. Same with Dying Light and other things I was interested in. She was always interested in what I liked talking about. I even showed her this song.
Sadly, when we both went to the hospital on the same day (my father took us for different reasons), she never got to come home.
Nothing is the same without her, and sometimes I wake up expecting to see her and hope she asks how I am.
I miss you mama.
I’m so so sorry, I’ve read so many comments just like this over the years, for some reason your hit me hard, I’m sitting here crying like l knew her, it physically hurts.
I’ve never experienced that reading comments before, weird,IDK, but I feel the need to tell you,
I Love You and I’m writing your name down and I will pray for you now and every time I read it, I feel like I’m supposed to, and so I will🙏🏻❤️❤️
Remember, we are eternal beings therefore we are never real gone , just a different form.
She’s right there with you and always will be❤️
I’ve never said anything like this to a total stranger before, but I feel compelled to so, take it for whatever it means to you❤she loves you so much and she right there with you and she always will be.❤️🕊️❤️
Im sending you all the love I can feel right now, all I can say is it has to be coming from her because I don’t know you and I can feel it❤️
@@staceyradcliff3484 This has to be the most thoughtful reply I’ve never imagined to get over the internet. Thank you for your concern and care, even for a peon such as myself.
My fathers best friend, ( a close family friend) past away recently and this was his favorite band and one of his favorite songs. THANK YOU!
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.
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 🤘🏻🤘🏻🎸💖
This was my song back in Afghanistan, see you down Range my friends.
Till we meet in the Storied Halls of Valhalla
U ok?
So u are killer
@@katerinavalickova3815 if a soldier kills another soldier he's not a killer, its just his job
Thank you for your service 😇👍
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
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!
the days no more the same without you....miss ya pops
Austria, still listening
Voi geil
Absolutely without a doubt this band is amazing!!! The singers voice is magical every damn song is excellent!!!
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!!!!!!!!!!
Sometimes I forget just how good this album was, and this brings me back around... "cherish what you love BELIEVE in it" my favorite line in the entire song...
February 20,2014.......I love and miss you dad!!!
Da werden Erinnerungen an die schönste Zeit wieder wach
R.i.P my sweetheart ♡
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.
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.
My dad left me before i was born and ive only seen him once my grandpa filled in but his memory is starting to slip and hes lost his strength.He was the most strong person ive ever met its hard because everything has changed with him but i spend all the tine i can get because one day he will be gone he taught me how to be a man and this song helps me deal with it.
so you meet him one time and he taught you to be a man? seems a little fishy
+Robin Stolperud not his dad but grandpa
+Robin Stolperud Idiot.
he was my parent to my mom worked three jobs a week when I was 8 til I was 14 I never had a stable home because my mom moved alot and my grandparents farm is mine he taught me life lessons I could have never learned
+Shawn Crawford me not my#
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.
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. 😢😢😢❤❤
Volbeat in my headphones.. oh I love it. One of my favourite bands.
Wow...... I needed this song alot here lately. My Dad Jerry Whitehead passed 8 years ago. My Mom passed away last month. Beverly Whitehead. they were married 49 years. Thx for the song!!!!
