At the time James wrote and recorded his song, James and his father both thought that his dad was dying. He needed a kidney transplant and without one he would have died. For the longest time they were unable to find a match. James wanted to do a tribute to his dad before he passed. Just so happened, a cousin of his dad saw the video found out what was happening to her cousin and offered to get tested. Luckily they were a match. James writing and recording this song saved his dad's life. Some things are just meant to be.
Thank you for this comment with the explanation!!! I was all messed up and confused. I was thinking, is this song about him telling his dad that it’s okay to let go, and then used his dying dad in the actual video?! Lmao so thank you!
Wow I never knew the back story, what a great ending 🥰 Leo let’s get back in the music grind ☺️
So this cousin didnt know he was dying and saw a video then donated a kidney? Sounds weird cause if they're not close enough for the cousin to know why would they donate?
@@thehillshavepiestoot extended families lose touch all the time, people move and go on with their lives, doesn’t mean they don’t still love their family. Just because he wasn’t close enough to have known his uncle was dying at the time, doesn’t mean he wouldn’t still help if he could. And clearly that is what he did. Through this song he heard his uncle need a lifesaving kidney, tested as a match and donated it. It’s not weird at all. It’s a beautiful reminder for all of us that you don’t have to talk everyday to prove you still love someone. This was the ultimate show of love.
@@thehillshavepiestoot The Blunts are a military family and very private usually.James wanted to say goodbye to his father in the best way he knew how (through music) and when it came out the extended family got to know about his dad. One of the cousins got tested and was a match. If James hadn't made the song his dad would most certainly have passed.
Glad to see you're back with music. The movies and shows are great, but music reactions is what made me subscribe almost a year ago. Keep it up!
Yes I too agree 👍
@@billforrester5235 I kinda agree--but it's good to mix it up. Dude is so funny, I wanna see his reaction to loads of stuff. UK 80s commercials would be awesome.
@@Adi-Dassler I agree, he is naturally funny. Has real talent.
Exactly
For me the "I'm not your son, you're not my father - We're two grown men saying goodbye" means that they are no longer an adult and a child, they are equals. They are saying goodbye to each other as equals.
I also liked the story about how this video was shot. The only one not crying was his dad, everyone else - James, the camera man, the sound people, the director - were all bawling. Apparently, at the end of it, Charles Blunt looked around at all the crying people and said "Why is everyone crying? I'm still here".
The song might also have saved Charles' life as a distant relative heard it, got tested and turned out to be a kidney donor match.
Power of music!!
Exactly
Nu l
So many of you are just repeating the talking points of others.
"'I'm not your son, you're not my father' means they are equals" - Not exactly.. It's just an expression to say to one another in hopes that the "goodbye" won't be as emotional.. Basically a similar reason why some people refuse to say "goodbye" to people.
Don't know why people are coming at it from an "equal" angle, given the context of the whole song. Even without context, it makes less sense than the reason I already explained.
@@Gutslinger No, it doesn't. You just don't like that people don't share your interpretation. So, why aren't being adult and accept that other people will have different interpretations of a line in a song.
@@Bianca_Arlette He is right though "'I'm not your son, you're not my father' Is what they said to eachother when they were deployed to the army to make the departure not as sad/emotional
I’m listening to that song and my 6 year old baby girl came upstairs to show me a picture she was working on. She saw me watching this. She looked at my screen and said “is that his daddy?”. I said “yes it is pumpkin”. She sat on the couch beside me and we watched the rest of the video together. I try to be a rock for her so I held back the tears. Beautiful song. Man I love my baby girl.
Aw-🥺
@@kimberlinibambini1988 I love that girl with every fiber of my being.
@@ryana3679 I haven’t a single doubt- 😊💖
Let her see you cry! I was 13 before I knew men even COULD cry. You don't really want to be a 'rock' for her - hopefully she will have something more human to hug and comfort her when it's her turn to cry. She needs to know now that you'll understand then.
Yess! I have truly missed your music reactions my guy, this is a great song!
"I'm not your son, your're not my father", just means he is grown now and think of me as a man now and lets communicate as two grown men.
Its actually what they said to each other when each were deployed. They were in the British army at the same time. "I'm not ur son, ur not my father" it's how they let each other go.
That’s exactly like our relationship, I’m surprised not a lot of people get this part of the lyrics. I guess just different family different situation.
His father was dying of kidney failure. He wrote the song to represent the role reversal of him now caring for his dad. His dad found a donor for a new kidney and yes that's his father.
This song is rough to listen to, and even more difficult to watch the video. Really, truly heartwrenching. He wrote it when it seemed as though his father was likely to die from stage 4 kidney disease, and the video really rips out your heart and squeezes every tear drop from it that it can. Very, very powerful. Also, the fact that it shows this open love and emotion between a father and son is great, as that is not often shown in public. Thankfully, his father got a transplant and is still alive today. ~Be Blessed
Yes, that is his father. He wrote the song when his father was battling stage 4 kidney disease
This song is raw emotion and we all hurt with him.
So glad you’re doing music again!
This song makes me cry every time. 😢
if you've lost a parent or any loved one, this song rips through your heart. James's dad had donated one of his kidneys years ago and his remaining kidney was failing. He was in stage 4 chronic kidney disease and they couldn't find a donor. James wrote this as a tribute to his father and express his feelings about his father, they didn't think Blunt senior would live much longer. Shortly after this video came out, a distant cousin came forward and was a match. Mr.Blunt spent 2020 in the hospital in isolation. His immune system was low due to the transplant and Blunt said that they didn't want to risk his father's health with the covid pandemic. As far as I know and have read the senior Mr. Blunt is doing fine. So glad to see you back, your intro when you say different links have always made me laugh. Your reactions are always fun.
Oh how I've missed you and your reactions. This song just hits. I recomment Goodbye My Lover from James, as well.
I can relate to this song...I have kidney failure...i am end stage 5 and have opted not to receive a kidney. i will continue to do dialysis until my time comes ..i am in my 50s and there are younger people that need it more who have a lifetime ahead of them...i have lived my life...seen my kids grow up and get married and i have seen my grandkids grow up and with any luck i will see at least one great grand child before i pass on...everytime i hear this song it makes me cry...beautiful....just beautiful
I played this for my grandfather in the ICU the day we had to say goodbye April 23,2021 the man who helped raise me. I came by to like the video and drop a comment but I cannot watch this I don't think I will be able to ever listen to this song ever again it just hurts too much.
Omg i love your music reactions really glad youre doing some more of these
James Blunt is a real G...like his father he also served in the military and is known as one of the most genuine people in the British music industry, plus all the charity work he does silently without fanfare...the more you learn about this dude the more you respect him.
Yes I agree James is truly a sincere and generous humble,funny man
*I AM THE GOD OF HELL FIRE*
You forgot the part about how James literally stopped WWIII from starting....
I'm SO glad you're back with music. You've always been my favorite music reactor!! You made me look up the backstory..this $#its sad!!
In a nutshell Leo your right it's a farewell song to his dad Charles for when the time come. He was a high ranked officer in the Queens Royal Army and James Blunt followed in his footsteps
Yay! You’re back to music!! We’ve missed you doing these. This song is so touching and emotionally beautiful. James is a brilliant singer-songwriter. Please react to his song, “You’re Beautiful.”
His producer wanted him to re-do some of the vocals because he was so upset his voice cracked, he said no, and that was absolutely right. He was in the moment, and that pain is real. 😭
I am so happy you are doing music reactions again. I never knew this song existed. Thank You. This is an amazing tune.
Leo here is a little fact for you I knew James Blunt as him and my brother served together in the Army and there still friends today and yes this song is about his father Charles who unfortunately has kidney disease and that's Charles in the video
Leo: I'm not going to do what's recommended and read the back story!
Also Leo: I don't... what, what's going on? I don't get it!
Welcome back, missed your song reactions. James Blunt was also served in the British Army as a Captain and saw action in Kosovo. He is an amazing talent, please check out You’re Beautiful, Goodbye My Lover, Bonfire Heart just to name a few….greetings from Tropical 🏝 Far North ☀️ Queensland 🐠 Oz…..🙋🏻♀️🐕🇦🇺🦜🐨🦘🦋🐍🦈🕷🐊
I’m so, so, so happy you are back doing music!! You’re movie reactions are great, but watching you react to music is a pure joy!!!
Good! glad you are back with the music.
Welcome back Leo, I'm so excited. I've had to watch old videos to get my fix 😂. I have stage 4 kidney disease and only 1 kidney, I'll have to read his story too cause although its not good but, stage 4 isn't deadly. They switched roles, he's now taking care of dad. Love you bruh
I can't watch this song anymore, so I had to skip through it, just to see your reaction. I miss my dad. Miss my mom too. If you had a good relationship with your parents, life just isn't the same anymore once they're gone. My mom, days before she passed, asked me if I knew where her parents were. Here's hoping when she passed, they were right there to greet her. Here's hoping.
So glad to have you back Leo…what a song to come back with!! As parents,
we all try to chase away the monsters for our children, check under the bed,
in the closets. And now, what a gift for James, to be able to sing his love,
calm his fathers fears, reassure him he’s done his best and chase all his monsters
away. Gorgeous song….tears every time…and wishes. Thank you Leo. ❤️🔥
This song is definitely deep and hard to listen to when you’re going through difficult times.
Keep bringing the heat Leo 🤘🔥
We’ve missed your music reactions! Glad you’re back 😊
"Follow me on everything in the description. Subscribe if you haven't. Merchandise in the description as well, its different linkssss". Got you Leo! 😂. Hey, don't judge. I been a fan for a while.
Great to see you back Leo, you look a lot happier, keep doing what you do and Thankyou x
Missed hangin with ya, Its going to take me forever to catch up, but totally worth it...Such a beautiful, unique voice...Today is the anniversary of my fathers death, so crazy when music comes to you at just the right moments...Thanx Mr V, Awesome reaction, Peace
How his Father pats his arm lovingly and supporting him at the end of the video you can see their love and understanding.
Forgot how much I enjoyed your music reactions. :)
I think James would definitely smoke with you. Check out his 1st hit You're Beautiful, it does mention being high.
Glad to see you back doing music again Leo!
This is a very deep song and very emotional (others explained the back story in comments)
Keep it up man! 👍
Omg to see someone try to react to this powerful song but not understand what it is about is gut wrenching. I hope you eventually figure it out. Its a beautiful emotional very special song most of us can relate to. The scared look in his eyes is grief. He is grief stricken while trying to comfort his dying father. It’s my time to chase the monsters away. Not a time of being father n son or revisiting any wrongdoings of past. It’s just two men who love eachother deeply saying goodbye. Omg just deeply beautiful.
At the time James Blunt recorded this song his dad was dying of stage 4 kidney disease and he wasn't a match to donate a kidney. Fortunately his cousin heard the song and what it was about and he turned out to be a match, and donated a kidney for him. But I think at the time this video was made James thought his dad was about to die.
Glad your back 👍🏻 heartbreaking song :( true love that James sung and showed. Powerful 💞
Ok MR.VIDEO!! It’s YOUR JOB TO FIGURE THIS OUT AND EXPLAIN IT TO US!! Thank you! 🤓❤️
You were asking your TH-cam family to suggest SONGS to react to. I just listened to this great dance song yesterday. 1966! BANG BANG by the JOE CUBA SEXTET.🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 ( the whole NYC dance party vibe from the 60's . So good).
So happy you are back, I’ve missed your music videos. You are the best!!!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Love you!!! So happy you’re back doing 🎶 😊
Have really missed your music reactions
Good to see/hear you again. 😢this is real life. . . . Thank u for doing this…
Thanks for the reaction Mr.V great heartfelt song.
I have missed watching you !!
This is the 1st time hearing this song too, I cried the whole time
I've so missed you! So happy to see you back again!! Keep up your reactions!! I Think you're great!!
We all love James Blunt. Your review was raw and honest - big love fella!
I'm shook. This hits home with me and my son now. I lost my wife/his mother last year and my health is failing and he's having to take care of me. If you have a loved one on short time be sure to let them know you'll be okay without them and give them permission. They know what's coming and their only concern it that you'll be okay without them. It will give them peace.
I am so sorry about your health! Thank goodness you have your SON! My health is not the best and My son is always there for me no matter what! He lives with me He's 26! Doing things I cannot do so well anymore! He's a trooper! Also I lost My Dad last year to Covid He was 73! Strangely when I saw Mr V post this My son had just told me about this song today and said Mom I found a song for you and I bawled! He knows how much I've been crying and hurting losing my Dad! & I told him you know you can look at this song in a different way right son.... He said Yes Mom! I love that KID! I wish you all the best with your health! & strength for your son to help his Dad and be there for you
Thank you for doing Music again.
Hi Leo!! No matter how many times I watch/listen to this, I cry-cry 😭😭
Finally! Thank you.🥰 Also. He is a Captain. True.
So glad your back! Sure have my friend. ♡
I don’t even have a father and I cried…
That’s some deep love there.
I feel that way about my grandmother…
Welcome back Leo! Good to see ya!
Yes Leo. Love your music reactions my man
Personally I don’t understand how James was able to make it through making this video.how he is so open and vulnerable.his emotions literally jump off the screen to make you feel what he is feeling
Apparently after the shoot his father said 'why is everyone crying, I am still here'.
@@laurencefox5884 I bawled my eyes out
Hi dude glad 😊 you r bk doing music vids keep the music vids on coming 😀 😉 👍
YEAAAH more music reactions!! it's been a year since you reacted to Istanbul (not constantinople) by They Might Be Giants, which is the video that got me hooked on your channel/subscribed! Really hoping to see more reactions to They Might Be Giants, they're so underrated and I haven't seen many others react to them. I recommend "Birdhouse in Your Soul" and "Ana Ng"!! You're missing out on some really good music!
I’m so happy to see you boo!😉
Leo, your reactions to music are hilarious. We all love you. Been following you as an original fan.
Loved your boys! Missed your music reactions so much. This is about Role reversal, as your parents get sick and age!
I lost my dad at 83 yrs old after a long fight with heart failure. I have managed to avoid listening to the song for years. Now I am sitting here crying, thinking about me and daddy at his end. I don’t know whether to thank you or slap you (virtually, of course) 😂 l do like that you’re doing music again. 🌎✌️
oh man, i h8ghscool my fav band was Fishbone - Sunless Saturday. that and bad brains. i would love to see these musicians. Death (original) from 70's... always obsessed. live for this reaction. im in love
This one pulls the heart strings tight 🥺🙏✨
“I got chills on my arm, call me chill bill.” Fucking KILLED me 😂 brought some laughter to a sad song hahah
Beautiful song.
I've just watched this again, and Leo you're a lovely man, ignore the criticism.
You got there in the end.
Well done again 👏👏👏👏
Surprised you reacted to this, but happily so. What a great song.
To All of us who had father’s who’ve past away, let them remain always in our Hearts ♥️ . And let them guide you on a better path than what they might of had ? I Love You Dad. And ✝️ R I P … “FATHER “ The Sleeper Has Awaken !!…. Got that line from the movie, DUNE. Your Angel With A Broken Wing 🕯 🦅🌹💐🌺 🕊❤️🔥✝️❤️🔥🕊😇☀️🌔🌌💋👄💋👠👠🌈 To you and yours , OXOX LEO …..And God Bless You . And I Love You 💋💔
This was so real his father was dying thankfully after this he did have a transplant and is still alive.
Great to see you Mr. V
I'm so glad your back yay missed you so much ,never heard this song before it is a heart wrenching song I love it and glad you reacted to it is a awesome song ✌️❤️💯
We know you better than you think my man, no harm no foul, but listen to your youtube family when they suggest something. I lost my shit when I first saw this video, it wasn't til much later I read the back story and could again watch this video, although I lost my dad around the time this video came out, so it's still tough to get through. ✌🏻❤️
My father is currently losing this battle and I understand every word of what James Blunt is singing. My hero and my mentor my Father. Thank you for your song it may help me when the time comes.
I m glad to see you back, you Always get me laough and happy with reaction's,keep doing this.Please and this is my sugestion could you react on THE WAY IT IS of BRUCE HORNSBY the piano in this song is awesom.
I'm the age where our sweet parents, step parents and in-laws are all aging, needing more help and going. It's so hard. This hit me too 💔
Yeeeeeh couch is holding up, I read somewhere James wrote this for his father who had Kidney disease at the time, if I’m not mistaken this came out three years ago beautiful song nice tribute to his dad, love it Leo always enjoy watching your emotions, 👍🔥👍. 💕💯💕
iam Tongi just won American Idol with this song. He’s a teenager who lost his father two months before. He made the whole world cry. Sending love and gratitude ❤
L.O.L...you`re the only one who reacted to this song who made me laugh out loud while crying over the song. I think that next time somebody tells you you should look up the meaning before listening to a song you should look up the meaning before listening to the song .... but it`s all good. Great to have you back, I hope TH-cam leaves this one up.
You need to check out James Blunt's Twitter. He's hilarious and ruthless.
I've been waiting for you to do this song forever. Knowing you lost your Father I just knew this one would be very emotional for you, but as it turns out you didn't really know what was going on in the song so you were spared the emotion. Glad to see you back doing music videos. Take care...
Man I’ve missed you. Other reactors don’t fill the gap. You do you bro, you have a huge fan base. Work every trick in the book to mask videos, do audio only etc etc.
In the world of reactors, you sir are King 👑
This song always breaks me. RIP Dad
I cried like a baby through out the whole video, it put me back for when my husband passed. Keep loving those close to you.💖
Music and Leo on a Saturday night ! My night is made 💙 Thank you ! First time hearing this song and it killed me 😭
So glad you're back. This one makes me cry. 😭
Love you’re work
So here I am, full on bawling my soul out at this song. This is his best work to date imo. I think of my mum, who for the past year, has had to become a live-in carer for my grandma (Dementia), as well as working from home. A few months ago, I took my mum out to the cinema to see West Side Story (we both love musicals), just so my mum can take a break from the new reality. I daren't show this video to her, but it makes me think of that time that will ultimately come to us all who have parents, and I won't be ready for it.
This has a totally different meaning to my heart while dealing with a parent suffering from dementia. What if some day Mom doesn't recognize me as her daughter, herself as my mother, we'll just be 2 grown women saying goodbye...
@Mr.Video my day just got so much better! You always brighten my day! 💯💞 James and his father both served in the English military they both left the military with honors. The English way is to have a “stiff upper lip“ this is why when he says I’m not your son you’re not my father we’re just two men saying goodbye. It’s the English way to Be able to handle something this traumatic.
Welcome back, Leo!
Yay!! Glad your back with the music reactions!!! Thinking out loud is a good song by ed sheeran. Also try just give me a reason by pink and nate ruess
For real, in my whole life, I never thought I'd hear James B. called a real one. Laughing and crying at the same time.
I nearly lost my father last year but he was Blessed by God and defeated stupid low chance of survival illness and today he is in Cuba on the beach celebrating his 76th birthday.
I had never heard this song, I'm a full grown man and it hits like a truck. Leo with the feels at fkn 1am hahahahahaha thanks for the content my dude, appreciate it.
Life is short everyone, go talk to the person your mind is telling you to. Tomorrow our life can change forever. Tomorrow could be the day you remember as the day that split two periods of your life, before and after that day.
God Bless you all, brothers and sisters. We are one people, united by our loving souls and our sorrows.
Welcome back. Bro hope all is well
Oh yes your back with music …. Got my smoking buddy back yeaaaa
