    Lyrics:
    Hang on, just hang on for a minute
    I've got something to say
    I'm not asking you to move on or forget it
    But these are better days
    To be wrong all along and admit it, is not amazing grace
    But to be loved like a song you remember
    Even when you've changed
    Tell me, did I go on a tangent?
    Did I lie through my teeth?
    Did I cause you to stumble on your feet?
    Did I bring shame on my family?
    Did it show when I was weak?
    Whatever you've seen, that wasn't me
    That wasn't me, oh that wasn't me

    I've just finished watching The Starling and the movie so resonated and then there was the song. I lost my son to suicide whilst he was in mental health and well the movie as did this song connected. His story merges and weaves in and out of these two mediums. God bless to those who find a way to hang on and god defend the ones that can't.

      Thank you for your verbal eloquence. Recently I’ve been trying to comment on every TH-cam comment that actually made me smile or giggle. Thank you. I utilize the phrase, “social crime” occasionally. It doesn’t have an exact meaning for me and therefore can be applied to many types of interactions between people. Thank you again, Jihan. You actually made it more appealing for me to get out of bed today. Legit and sincere thank you 😊

    I work as a chaplain with a homeless shelter and this song really, really connected. I have a friend of mine who, when I met him, threatened my life. Later, when I saw him again, he apologised and sought to make things right. "That wasn't me, that wasn't me," was what he said again and again. We made peace and he's been in/out of our shelters. Last week, I discovered this song and the next time I see him, I'd like him to hear this song. Not just the title and chorus, but the verse-he's said before in the frustration of trying to get things right. And what's odd, I've said these things, the things that Brandi is singing about. This song is a gift. If this somehow gets to Brandi and her team, thank you and please know: you've blessed some folks with you songs.

    My Grandfather loved music so much, and while he was living with us he called me to his room and played this song for me because he thought I would like it. I liked it then and I really love it now. Not long after he shared this song with me he passed away and tomorrow it will be 4 years, I miss him with all of my heart and think of him every time I hear this song

I will spend the rest of my life righting my wrongs and that's ok. I'm so happy this song came into my life at the perfect time and I've listened to it almost everyday since. It's an inspiration.

    I watched The Starling last night and heard this song. It really connected to me on so many levels. I went through a very different, but similar trauma that the movie portrays. My depression and anxiety caused me to act out and do/say some very horrible things that just aren't me. Such a beautiful song

      Melissa, this song hit me in the same way. To hear somebody who is an addict, or drunk say, "That wasn't me" is just not acceptable. But to not be balanced on our bipolar meds, and do some really "weird" stuff when hypomanic? That wasn't me.

    My dad is very musical, but is an abusive alcoholic. I always envision that he would sing this to me if he ever took responsibility for his actions. I know that will likely never happen, but this song has helped me to make peace and forgive him in my own way.

    But she caught me on the counter (It wasn't me)
    [Album version:] Saw me bangin' on the sofa (It wasn't me)
    [Clean version:] Saw me kissin' on the sofa (It wasn't me)
    I even had her in the shower (It wasn't me)
    She even caught me on camera (It wasn't me)
    She saw the marks on my shoulder (It wasn't me)
    Heard the words that I told her (It wasn't me)
    Heard the scream get louder (It wasn't me)
    She stayed until it was over

    This song is so beautiful, so many applications . Dolly's cover of the Story led me here. So glad I discovered Brandi. As a bipolar individual who has stayed healthy the last 7 years , When I think of the last manic episode of 2010 when I nearly lost it all. And put my family through a living hell beyond my control . This song is a beautiful way to think of what after the dust settled I could never have put into words

    Thank you Miss Carlisle!
    The song is both a heartbreak and, to me, a hope of the recovering one.
    This video wrecks me. I won't watch again even though it showed a man realizing he was better in jail, more free than to use again.
    I listen to the song over and over to understand addiction and recovery. I also change the meaning in my own head and hear the lyrics reminding me my loves one's behavior isn't me/ my fault in addition to the behaviors they do being driven by the cunning and baffling orchestration of the substance.
    An amazing piece. Love your work!

    • @wavescrashing1489
      @wavescrashing1489 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Bless you, as a recovering addict please always hold in your heart that truth, you are not at fault and sometimes it is only the loss of what we truly love that can shock us away from the substance that haunts us. 15 years completely sober but I lost the love of my life. I hope she is happy and will never bother her, but I send her good wishes nightly even as though I moved on.

    Not only is her songs fantastic, I found her on ITunes by accident but after seeing this video with Kris Kristofferson I was hooked. I also agree with brittybrat1986 that Kris Kristofferson is one of the greatest songwriters and now we can continue with Brandi in this storied tradition of storytellers.

    • @BillSouza-cm5gb

    Love this song, its such a true song for so many people, they go time in jail and don't know how to act when they get out, or how to really take care of themselves anymore. They are used to the jail life, extremely sad, but so true. So they go and purposely do something to go back to jail. That is where they feel safe. Now that is sad. But a great song.

  • @MotherhoodWanted
    @MotherhoodWanted 12 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Awesome song. I'm overwhelmed with how much soul she puts into her music. I cry every time I hear this, but it has this quality of regret that ends in hopeful repentance. I've experienced depression and this song is the perfect expression of my darkest moments. But healing.

  • @johngusdon3537
    @johngusdon3537 7 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Stumbled upon this song - late to the game in hearing this artist. Reminds me of the first time I heard Amy Winehouse and Rehab. Actually, when I heard that song I immediately knew that she was genius, incredible writer, incredible voice, and a song perfect to the bone. This song took me a time or two to hear and listen to the words, but again a lucidly and truth uncommon in songwriting. Every once in awhile, once in a blue moon maybe? you hear a song that captures you and powerful experiences you have encountered in life. Where does such a young person come up with so much soul? Add Kris Kristofferson to the mix, one of the great songwriters of all time. Talk about the IQ of a man or woman, then if there is one for writing then these three are/were beyond Einstein. One more thing, Brandi's voice is like heaven.

    I know exactly what you mean. She has such an amazing voice, and the emotion can be felt with every word that is sung. She's sadly underrated and deserves to be more well known. Unfortunately, people have no taste in music these days. I'm just so happy that I had the opportunity to see her, got in the second row, and didn't die in the extreme heat that I waited in for over an hour. ;)
