I have to make a confession. I heard this song first time in The Voice. It left deep impression on me and I had to find the original. First time hearing the original & every single next time hearing it I burst to tears, I'm literally sobbing. It awakens such deep emotion in me. I feel like angels are singing it. Now.. you might find it crazy, but I feel heaven voices sound like this.
Are you serious? I can barely understand what she is singing, one or two words here and there and that's it. That's not a good singer. OK, she has a good tone, nice vibrato but her enunciation utterly sucks. Why write lyrics at all if you are going to mumble sing?
This was played as the processional at our wedding in 2015. Now Megan has passed from cancer. This song has been with us throughout. It is both a comfort and a searing pain. Thank you

I put this song on a playlist I made for my wife. Little did i know she would die by my side within 3 months. This song is so powerful to me now. It breaks my heart remembering her departure from life. Now "I" live between life and nowhere.
I am so sorry for your loss. I felt the same after my husband of 55 years passed away two years ago... and I still do. Take comfort from your happy memories, and your loved ones around you... and keep listening to music. 👵🌈
I’m sorry for your loss. Sadly this happened to me too, my late partner and I used to sob through this song. Little did we know that he was actually terminally Ill and would die 5 years later. Such beautiful lyrics and haunting music. ❤️
Oh I’m sorry to hear of the loss of your wife, that’s so sad. It took me several years before I could listen to the song again, it’s been 10 years since my partner died, I still think of him every day. 🙏
Hope there's someone Who'll take care of me When I die, will I go Hope there's someone Who'll set my heart free Nice to hold, when I'm tired There's a ghost on the horizon When I, go to bed How can I fall asleep at night How will I rest my head Oh I'm scared of the middle place Between light and nowhere I don't want to be the one Left in there, left in there There's a man on the horizon Wish that I'd go to bed If I fall to his feet tonight Will allow, rest my head So here's hoping I will not drown Or paralyze in light And Godsend I don't want to go To the seal's watershed Hope there's someone Who'll take care of me When I die, will I go Hope there's someone Who'll set my heart free Nice to hold, when I'm tired Ooh Ooh

One of the very few artists who has the ability the genuinely stop you dead in your tracks no matter what you are doing. You feeze, she wraps her angelic wings around you and you feel all that emotion. This is pure Art.

Anoni has a beautiful soul. I have been admiring her journey from afar. I hope to one day see her perform. Until then, I simply follow her work and applaud from the wings.
@@neilpace In the dark days of the past, straight men made homosexuality illegal, In order for queer men to protect themselves, they referred to other men as 'she/'her' to deflect the truth. For Anonhi, she recently transitioned, and so, out of respect for her wishes, I am considerate and refer to her with the appropriate and kinder pronouns.
I remember being only 6 years old hearing this for the first time after Anohni won the Mercury Prize. I was mesmerised by it and wanted to introduce my friends to the song. Has stayed with me since, beautiful music.
I saw this video a few years back. Unfortunately the name and artist escaped my memory. I could never remember, no matter how hard i tried. So I went listening to music in the hope it would be recommended. After about a year I'm glad to say today's the day this song was recommended. A great day.
I first heard this song (and the rest of the album) in summer 2005. I was travelling through Vietnam and had it on my iPod. I played it for the first time as I sat on the deck of a boat slowly cruising through the jade waters of Halong Bay (Google image it if not familiar, it's as breathtaking as Anohni's voice). It was one of the most intense and transcendental experiences of my life. Anohni's music and vocals are so raw and cinematic - especially hearing them for the first time ever - it almost upstaged the landscape! Which is no mean feat in one of the most beautiful places on earth. But thankfully I was able to appreciate them both simultaneously. Whenever I play this song/album (about once a year) I'm taken straight back to Vietnam 2005. And once again I'm sat in the sunshine, on a deck of a boat, without a care in the world. That's the power of great music. This song / Album / Artist will always hold a special place in my heart, and soul, and memories...
I played this on a camping trip around the fire and loved it but the lads took the piss out of me for liking the song,I’m so glad more people have the same appreciation as I have got for this unusually beautiful song ❤
I couldn't more agree with you there, wow there is so much music out there and you stumble across some gems or your friends tell you about a singer or a band. And when mentioned gems this is truly one of them. Absolutely stunning and haunting and sad it's hit me right in my heart

First time uve heard this in a few years, but I remember watching this performance when it aired. This song stopped me in my tracks when it released. Beautiful, dark, heart wrenching, original, captivating, ethereal. A genuine milestone moment in music.
Would like to hear more about it or maybe go to the concert.. This is something else.. Words do not describe it. Add my fb Matteo de Maria (don doc) or insta matteodemaria8 .
I'm here after watching The Voice on TH-cam. Someone sang it, I have never heard that song before, but the lyrics hit me totally, heard it 5 times and then searching it! What a ingenious song 🥺
I love this song so much. It makes me feel closer to my brother who died 10years ago with a brain tumour. They gave him 5-10yrs to live he died 9months later. Never take life for granted. Hes last words to me were hope theres someone who'll take care of me when I died. It breaks me everytime I hear these words but a comfort to.
Absolutely Beautiful & every word sung is exactly how i feel about my darling Husband who stood in front of me 29yrs ago & said without a shadow of a doubt he would tie himself to me in everyway possible....I know EVERYDAY of my life I am lucky to have found him & I think I love him more now than I ever have, an eternity with him will never be enough....my only wish would be is that everyone finds that one person who they can truly be themselves with, give love & in return receive love not for money or for fame just because you LOVE them.
Oh God, one of the most unique voices out there. I was so mezmerized the first time I heard Antony. My mind was like - "Oh wow, I don't think I've ever heard anything like this before".
iv only just discovered this song, im the one that listens to this for the first time, now im the one that has listened to it many times over and every time it takes me away to were i need to be.
I remember being so moved by this when i first watched this aged 15. Ive heard alot of music since but this is still, and moreso with life and relationships trials, the most amazing piece of music to me.
I was 22, when l first Heard that inqualified voice which i did not know Who sang that Master pièce l cut my haïr i drink all night and sincère then it helped when i most my dad un le and grand dead thé very same years my dis passed away 3 years ago and that voice is part of my life crying for thé beauty of unique voice which l ll choice when l ll die althought l am a cheerful and Nice person with cancer this group is a gift of god❤
I'll never forget the first time I heard this song. I was 24 and I remember the night. Thank you Sam for sharing this gift with me. It's been nearly 20 years and it's still one of the most beautiful things I have ever heard. Thank you, Anohni.
I’ve heard this song for the first time in a Brazilian series.. and in the second I’ve heard it I knew it was something special, it touched me as deeply as I never had before, love ♥️
Every now and again Jools & the BBC gives us a landmark performance. I was stunned at this at the time, and am stunned at it now. Bought the albums and love them, but this is special.
can't forget stumbling into Antony / this performance on Jools on a Fri night back then, bit p*ssed and maudlin, surrounded by boxes, during a v sticky period in life.....wldn't give up the memory, for the all the pain still dimly associated with it - truly transcendent artist, now, as then
I have to make a confession. I heard this song first time in The Voice. It left deep impression on me and I had to find the original.

I remember this coming up on the radio
I stopped as I walked.
Hope there's someone
Who'll take care of me
When I die, will I go
Hope there's someone
Who'll set my heart free
Nice to hold, when I'm tired
There's a ghost on the horizon
When I, go to bed
How can I fall asleep at night
How will I rest my head
Oh I'm scared of the middle place
Between light and nowhere
I don't want to be the one
Left in there, left in there
There's a man on the horizon
Wish that I'd go to bed
If I fall to his feet tonight
Will allow, rest my head
So here's hoping I will not drown
Or paralyze in light
And Godsend I don't want to go
To the seal's watershed
Hope there's someone
Who'll take care of me
When I die, will I go
Hope there's someone
Who'll set my heart free
Nice to hold, when I'm tired
Ooh

But thankfully I was able to appreciate them both simultaneously. Whenever I play this song/album (about once a year) I'm taken straight back to Vietnam 2005. And once again I'm sat in the sunshine,
on a deck of a boat, without a care in the world. That's the power of great music. This song / Album / Artist will always hold a special place in my heart, and soul, and memories...

Formation-stability-degeneration-disintegration is the law
Cosmic bodies will meet with disaster at the end
Seeking Dafa to save beings in heavens

Do not miss what you’ve been awaiting for thousands of years
The Creator, the Lord God, has come long ago
Spreading Dafa [Great Law] widely and saving all beings
Te red demon spreads lies, churning up dust
Hard to tell truth from falsity-heart is the guide
Don’t you see the heavenly gate is open, after eons
In delusion, you’ve forgotten who you are
The truth of Dafa solves the riddle
Your heavenly family is waiting
Quickly board the Fa boat, shedding your human skin

Sing a Song to Call Out to the World’s People
I sing a song to call out to the world’s people
Before disaster strikes, Gods will surely come
The Dafa disciples spreading the truth
That’s Gods opening up heaven’s gate
The world may bustle, chaotic signs entangling in the end times
The red demon is spreading lies at the same time
The gate of heaven closes soon as it must
How many will return, how many turn to dust
Winter 2012

Saving All Beings
Human life is like a play, one scene after another
Fame, gain, qing[emotions], hatred-like fleeting clouds
Changing roles in every lifetime through reincarnation
King or commoner-engrossed in the play
Beings originally were in heavens
Coming to the human world to seek Dafa
To gain the Fa, you must wait for the Creator
Cultivate, remake yourself, then return to heaven
The Creator, the Fa King, has already come to the world
Spreading the Buddha Fa in human form, He stops the raging waves
Do not let your attachments block your way
Missing the chance, you will regret endlessly
Winter 2012"

I was so fortunate that my daughter and partner took us to a Vancouver concert, about 15 years ago. Transcendent.
I remember hearing this for the first time on Later with Jools Holland.... So beautiful.
1st Time I Heard It Too (On J.H) Brought a Tear To My Eye 😢❤
I'm here after watching The Voice on TH-cam. Someone sang it, I have never heard that song before, but the lyrics hit me totally, heard it 5 times and then searching it! What a ingenious song 🥺
Right?
A voice from another world - a more beautiful one.
I love this song so much. It makes me feel closer to my brother who died 10years ago with a brain tumour. They gave him 5-10yrs to live he died 9months later. Never take life for granted. Hes last words to me were hope theres someone who'll take care of me when I died. It breaks me everytime I hear these words but a comfort to.
Absolutely Beautiful & every word sung is exactly how i feel about my darling Husband who stood in front of me 29yrs ago & said without a shadow of a doubt he would tie himself to me in everyway possible....I know EVERYDAY of my life I am lucky to have found him & I think I love him more now than I ever have, an eternity with him will never be enough....my only wish would be is that everyone finds that one person who they can truly be themselves with, give love & in return receive love not for money or for fame just because you LOVE them.
Oh God, one of the most unique voices out there.
I was so mezmerized the first time I heard Antony.
My mind was like - "Oh wow, I don't think I've ever heard anything like this before".
Beautiful song,i love so much.....see the voice portugal 2021,joao singing this song......joao neves the voice portugal ....the best
Experienced this extraordinarily moving performance in Tasmania, maybe a decade ago; still gives me shivers…
iv only just discovered this song, im the one that listens to this for the first time, now im the one that has listened to it many times over and every time it takes me away to were i need to be.
I can hardly bear the Beauty of this.
This song brought me to my knees.... Piercing through my heart. The composition astounding!
I can't stop listening to this song. It's like an addiction. Thank you for bringing me such a beautiful song!
This is something else, something better than the most❤️

Most beautiful heart reaching song...If I fall to my feet tonight where will I rest my head??
I just love how the song moves between completely different styles to convey the different emotions. It’s such a memorable piece
I remember being so moved by this when i first watched this aged 15. Ive heard alot of music since but this is still, and moreso with life and relationships trials, the most amazing piece of music to me.

Such a beautiful voice
This voice is just unbelievable!
Wow such beauty, realness & freedom of existence of a being. Blessings...
I hear this now for the first time.....This is amazing...!!
I'll never forget the first time I heard this song. I was 24 and I remember the night. Thank you Sam for sharing this gift with me. It's been nearly 20 years and it's still one of the most beautiful things I have ever heard. Thank you, Anohni.
Pure emotion that is almost unbearable to listen to without bursting into tears .
I’ve heard this song for the first time in a Brazilian series.. and in the second I’ve heard it I knew it was something special, it touched me as deeply as I never had before, love ♥️
Every now and again Jools & the BBC gives us a landmark performance. I was stunned at this at the time, and am stunned at it now. Bought the albums and love them, but this is special.
I've never heard this before and I am in awe right now
It's absolutely captivating!! You can't hear this and not get emotional!!
You are the purest soul I have ever heard. You are a gift to this world. I cannot express in words how grateful I am to have found you.
can't forget stumbling into Antony / this performance on Jools on a Fri night back then, bit p*ssed and maudlin, surrounded by boxes, during a v sticky period in life.....wldn't give up the memory, for the all the pain still dimly associated with it - truly transcendent artist, now, as then
