I lost my mom to cancer not too long before this came out and I couldn't listen to this song for a few years without crying. Finally got there. ....annnnnndddddd now this.
Sean, I just stumbled upon this... I have been listening to you for years and i have to say all your covers are something else entirely. Something about hearing a stripped down killswitch song just gets to me, especially this song because it reminds me of my uncle, who got me into metal. We were close and he tragically passed away around this time last year. I still miss him all the time but hearing killswitch always helps me. How you play this... all your covers and songs.. it cuts right through me and makes me feel whole again. If im ever stressed out or depressed I just find your channel and after a few songs im better (like i did today). You do a beautiful thing, thank you so much for all you do brother.
Thank you for the heartfelt words brother. It honestly means so much to me. I'm deeply sorry to hear of your uncle's passing, but glad you find solace in the music he left you. May it always be a bridge between you and may the days ahead be gentle for you. Much love
I feel your pain 💔 I lost my uncle 2 years back and just reading your comment made my eyes water cause it brought that heartache back up temporarily, he was like the older brother I never had I'm glad to see I'm not the only broken heart that Sean mends with his music ❤
What an incredible exchange to witness. Music is an other worldly thing that unites in so many ways. Those who craft it have such a gift. In agreement with OP ‘hippy’ your work is tremendous and your response to him is even better!
This is my favorite Killswitch Engage song, because I feel identified with what the video exemplifies, I will always be with my brother, in life or death. Excellent work Sean, greetings from Chile.
I'm sorry, I did not want it to sound like that, but my brother is not dead... I only feel identified with the video because despite everything, blood and love will always prevail. Also thank you very much for the good wishes !.
These covers are truly excellent they scratch that kse itch while being relaxing. I spent a particularly hard season earlier this year listening to these most days and will probably enjoy them for years to come.
I heartedly dedicate this song to my father who passed away this year on March 28th. I love you dad. You rest in peace now. I miss you and hoping you are in a much better place. 😢
I'm sorry to hear about your father I fee pain I lost both parents and few others and battling heath problems and this songs helps me sleep and relieve my pain I wanna go home be with my family but god has much more for me I guess anyways u take care
@@joshlanders720 how do you get through the days ? Its about to be a year since dad died and i feel like im weak af. I try my best to keep my head up but when i see someone who resembles him i bawl my eyes out. Its very difficult and painful
To me this song just says it’s going to be ok. Doesn’t matter how far you have fallen. The father accepted the prodigal son and he accepts all of us. Always
The ultimate hidden TH-cam gem? I really can't think of anything more touching than this beautiful interpretation in my 15 years+ of watching videos on this site. It's a crime if KSE aren't aware of this
This song has always been so important to me after my friend died, and your version just brings out all the emotion I need to feel, thank you for improving this world with your art
I'm walking down the aisle to this song at my wedding. Full of so much emotion that can be either beautiful or tragic, but at the heart of it all incredibly uplifting, soaring even. Amazing work! ❤
In these moments of lost in torment When the vast skies don't seem to call to you When the weight of this world press down And the stars have fallen like tears I am with you always From the darkness tonight to the morning I am with you always From the life until death takes me Monuments build to remembrance of me The monuments fade and fall in decay The memories of all that remains As far as east is from the west, remember I am with you always From the darkness tonight until the morning I am with you always From the life until death takes me When hope seems lost down and lonely I am here with you always I am with you always From the darkness of night I am with you always From the darkness tonight until the morning I am with you always From life until death takes me I am with you always From life until death takes me
I've been following your works for a very long time now Sean and always found your covers of these songs beautiful. I think it adds a little more beauty and emotion to it now because they remind me of my Dad. He was such a fan of music and he left me close to two years ago now. I miss him so much and as I lay here with my newborn boy, the comfort he gives me and the melody of your piano really has me in a different state of mind tonight. I can really tell he likes it too. Thanks for putting out this work and I'm really glad to see you're still at it.
Bless you Rob. Much love for that. I'm so sorry to hear you lost your Dad, but I'm sure he is with you always. May you feel him close whenever you listen to these songs. And I'm sure your son brings you a lot of comfort. Enjoy the gift of new life and new love
As an avid killswitch fan, your music has touched me every time I listen to it, for the past few years since I've found your channel, waiting for another excellent cover from my favourite band. Not only do you do the songs justice, you have this ability to add weight and gravitas behind the material, I applaud your work. If in the future we cross paths, I'd happily shake your hand and say thank you for giving me your music.
I reached out to you about 10 months ago on your fb. I have to say, every upload really helps. This music has so much raw emotion behind it, and I don't think I could have made it through my ordeal without it. Thanks Sean.
Thank you for the heartfelt words. But I'm nothing special. Just a sinner trying to share some serenity with the world. All glory belongs to God. May the Light of His Love bless you always.
@@seantownsendmusic We are all special. Thanks for sharing your gift our creator has given to you. I was once a talented guitarist who long ago lost the passion to play. Never lose it. If you do it will be gone forever.
Id personally really like to hear the following: All that remains - six, August burns red - Empire, Bullet for my Valentine - your betrayal and Trivium - like light to flies. But for real though man keep it up. This is amazing. Your covers have inspired me to give the whole piano cover thing a go. Big up xD
Wow this is a such a cool rendition to such a meaningful song. Months ago during some hard times God spoke to me thru this song as odd as it may sound….would be awesome to also hear the slowed-down vocals added some how. Thanks for your great work.
I found you through a chillswitch engage comp video and i fell into KSE metal all over again (it didnt help that i was in pursuit of someone at the time) but when my world came crashing down i sought this song as it embodies the crying i needed so much but tonight... ive been recently uncharitable to my feline bestie whom passed away December 23rd last year and i fell off of some characteristics to help me keep a "normal" routine and that pain is eating away at me as i type this because all i want is to hold her, give her kisses and lots of fuss not because shes just a cat but she was my bestie and my mums lil furbaby...... But in my random searching im glad to have found this and i hope you make more amazing piano songs
I was just about to comment how I have this cool compilation video saved to my piano playlist snd it helps me relax and fall asleep, I just realized as I was commenting that its YOUR video 😂 "Chillswitch Engage" Also some of the other comments got me thinking on things and I wanted to toss my hat in too: Your music doesnt just help me sleep, but it has a healing quality to it. My life has been all kinds of bullshit since 2020 (even earlier really but especially since then) and your Chillswitch video has got me through some really sad and dark days. Something about it just feels like the piano itself empathizes with the pain or sadness or loneliness, and it really helps pick me back up, especially the way that it calms me down. My grandfather had a stroke in the summer of 2020 and was just starting to recover, Christmas day that year right after exchanging gifts he had a heart attack and died. And I had wasted the last moments I had with him being moody over a stupid girl who ended up hurting me anyway. Im still to this day trying to get over that guilt and the guilt of having wasted the last few months I had with him and having never apologized for being such a little shit when I was younger... Then, the day of his memorial service they found my uncle (who was like the older brother I never had) dead in his bathtub (autopsy says natural causes but he was diabetic so it could easily have been not-natural if you get my drift, he butted heads with my grandfather even more than I did and their relationship was always kinda tense as Inwas growing up) The number of times Ive had some unaddressed grief re-surface and I just laid in bed sobbing and then turned on your video and floated off into a melancholy peace/calm that ended up as a well needed nap, I cant thank you enough for that ability to soothe the pain of a bruised and battered soul ❤ Even now typing this I cant help but cry just from the intensity of the emotions, but this time its kind of a good cry, thank you for everything over the years ❤️
@@seantownsendmusic Ended up taking a nap on my lunch break at work today, was listening to your pieces and woke up to see your reply pop up almost as soon as I checked the time ❤️ my day is complete
I do not want to say that God does not exist. For now I believe in hope, in kindness, in a world and things that can be improved. Greetings my friend! Respect for all
My fiance and I love your killswitch covers!!! We would be forever grateful if you could do a cover of killswitches my obsession. PLEASE. We want to walk down the isle to it
You will never know how much this means to me, David. Thank you for blessing me with your prayers. If I can pray for you in any way, please let me know. God bless you and keep you always.
Is there any way of getting these covers, I want to listen at work but I’ll have no internet signal. So glad I found your channel, killswitch and all that remains are my go to metal music. Keep making people feel great inside👍
This is so beautiful.. It’s an honor to us to praise every single cover that you work in.. It’s incredible how deep and the sincere passion you play within these songs. We thank you so much for all. Could you please share with us your piano model?
BEAUTIFUL. this is my husband and my song. Brought tears. Thank you. Your music touches my soul. Can we make requests? I'd love to hear cemetery gates by pantera
Thank you for the heartfelt words. It really means a lot to know my work moves you in this way. I purely cover Killswitch songs now, so if you would like to request one of theirs, I will do my best to make it happen.

"I am with you always" - Matthew 28:20
Sean Townsend amen brother!
Ezekiel 23:20
BRG A beautiful verse. Thanks for sharing.
Psalm 103:12 "As far as the East is from the West, so far has He removed our transgressions from us" is also a verse referenced in this song.
@royal priest seems silly, doesnt it?
This song reminds me my wife, she died two years ago,
Thanks for play this, you're the best 👏
sorry for your loss, stay strong
She is still with you....and she will always be. Until you reunite. Stay strong. And hold on.
So sorry for your loss my friend. I hope and pray you will meet again. May the days ahead be gentle for you.
God loves ya man he is with you always I pray for many days of blessings ahead for you
So sorry Frank! She will always be with you .
I lost my mom to cancer not too long before this came out and I couldn't listen to this song for a few years without crying. Finally got there.

Aqui estou 4 anos depois, relembrando e desfrutando de todas as suas obras de arte, o mundo agradece 🇧🇷
This song always makes me cry...
You deserve millions on millions of views and subscriptions. This kind of talent and artistry deserves everyone’s attention.
Another beautiful masterpiece. I thank you.
Thanks Johnnie
This is my favorite Killswitch Engage song, because I feel identified with what the video exemplifies, I will always be with my brother, in life or death.
Excellent work Sean, greetings from Chile.
So sorry for your loss, Edgar. I hope and pray you will meet again some day. Much love
I'm sorry, I did not want it to sound like that, but my brother is not dead... I only feel identified with the video because despite everything, blood and love will always prevail. Also thank you very much for the good wishes !.
I always anticipate new stuff from you. Please don't stop
These covers are truly excellent they scratch that kse itch while being relaxing. I spent a particularly hard season earlier this year listening to these most days and will probably enjoy them for years to come.
Your Killswitch covers are all absolutely phenomenal, sir.
I heartedly dedicate this song to my father who passed away this year on March 28th. I love you dad. You rest in peace now. I miss you and hoping you are in a much better place. 😢
So sorry for your loss. Lifting you up in prayer. May the days ahead be gentle for you.

@@joshlanders720 how do you get through the days ? Its about to be a year since dad died and i feel like im weak af. I try my best to keep my head up but when i see someone who resembles him i bawl my eyes out. Its very difficult and painful
I've been waiting for this! Thank you Sean! 💜
To me this song just says it’s going to be ok. Doesn’t matter how far you have fallen. The father accepted the prodigal son and he accepts all of us. Always
Amen brother
best channel i ever stumbled
The ultimate hidden TH-cam gem? I really can't think of anything more touching than this beautiful interpretation in my 15 years+ of watching videos on this site. It's a crime if KSE aren't aware of this
This song has always been so important to me after my friend died, and your version just brings out all the emotion I need to feel, thank you for improving this world with your art
Absolutely beautiful isn't it
This reminds me of Final Fantasy. Absolutely terrific
Beautiful rendition
4:48 try not cry ... cry a lot ( anyone crying in 2020?
yup
Sounds amazing!
I'm totally addicted to all the killswitch that you have covered and made your own .
Absolutely , absolutely breathtaking .
I can't explain how i feeling in this song..
This touching is I've never felt before. I almost crying.
This is the one🤍I love this song so much.
WOW, another amazing piece of work!! Never seize to amaze me with your talent Sean. Keep them coming please
I'm walking down the aisle to this song at my wedding. Full of so much emotion that can be either beautiful or tragic, but at the heart of it all incredibly uplifting, soaring even. Amazing work! ❤
Beautiful. Enjoy your special day 🖤
This is utterly beautiful. How talented are you. To strip the songs back to this is truly genius ❤
Thank you. Much love for that 🖤
Awesome job Sean. Always love your music
Thank you Michael. Glad you enjoy my work.
@@seantownsendmusic always love it. You should try and do It All Falls on Me
I just read a comment from a guy that is exchanging vows to this version of the song. Awesome. Good work Sean
In these moments of lost in torment
When the vast skies don't seem to call to you
When the weight of this world press down
And the stars have fallen like tears
I am with you always
From the darkness tonight to the morning
I am with you always
From the life until death takes me
Monuments build to remembrance of me
The monuments fade and fall in decay
The memories of all that remains
As far as east is from the west, remember
I am with you always
From the darkness tonight until the morning
I am with you always
From the life until death takes me
When hope seems lost down and lonely
I am here with you always
I am with you always
From the darkness of night
I am with you always
From the darkness tonight until the morning
I am with you always
From life until death takes me
I am with you always
From life until death takes me
thanks for come again!!!!! I love it!!!
Beautiful.
Oh my god... My favorite Killswitch song pianized! Absolutely incredible
Thank you for this, so perfectly done!
Absolutely beautiful ❤
Absolutely incredible my friend as always Sean
