David Gray could sing Macarena or the whole phone directory for all I care and he would always make me cry and be happy at the same time.
I had crushes on a lot of singers when I was younger, but with David, it’s pure and true adoration. I have never listened to a singer that brings in me a lot of mixed emotions like he does.
I have even named my son Raphaël David in honor of him.
I just can’t believe how he makes me feel when I listen to his music.
Long future to him, my life depends on it.
StormyTan27 - Wonderful and beautiful words dedicated to David. Thank you...
I agree with "David Gray could sing Macarena or the whole phone directory for all I care and he would always make me cry and be happy at the same time."
His vivid lyric imagery inspires, rips the heart and fills the heart all at the same time.
i have yet to figure it out--partly the voice, partly the music, partly the minor keys. But wholly David Gray. He knocks me out, too.
StormyTan27 Ohhh yes!!! Isn't he simply amazing... A voice that just sends me ...
I can't count how many times I've just layed on the floor over the years, letting the tears streak, in pure bliss, just letting his music and soul surround me for hours.
you probably wont read this but you will be forever printed in my mind david as i played your song holding on at my daughters funeral she was just 17 years old and a sweet beautiful soul ........... we are just passing ghosts.
As a father of 3 just passing by, to read this while listening to this wonderful music breaks my heart. May God bless you and your beautiful daughter, Lee. And rest assured that you have been a wonderful Dad to her, and always will be.
Goetz Haindorff thankyou very kind words .
As a father of a son I do wish you all the very best for your future. May God bless you and your loved ones.
So sorry for your unspeakable loss.
So sorry for your loss Lee!
For my Mum, who gained her wings 15-12-21. Loved so much, on earth and in heaven. A piece of me died that day. Until we meet again Mum xx
We Buried my Gran yesterday, we move on but have our memories, and a sight a smell a song brings them back and they are with you again if only for a few seconds. Love the song, Thanks Mr Gray
Billy Allan God Bless mate
David paints images with his words and phrasing like no one else. This feeds my soul.
SuperBowlofSoup... right on
You're not wrong there, sir (or madam)! 🙏
sometimes it hurts my heart to hear him. Something about the way he slides into the music, slowly pulling it up around him like a blanket.
went to see him a couple of months ago with my wife who loves him, she also has a brain tumour...^&*%$$ it made her night/day/month/year seeing such a wonderful musician in the flesh....hopefully many more to come with Mrs Williams x
neil williams That's Lovely!
Lovely. You've inspired me. I lost my mom to a brain tumor and my sister is currently battling the same. Best to you. Rock On.
I absolutely love this one! I think this would have fit in to the live Skellig set list perfectly.
one thing I notice about his older records: he starts out plain, quiet, with maybe a bit of piano...then he starts layering behind the words, a guitar, a harp, a few horns, deeper and deeper, until he often has a huge sound behind him, and it's magic.
That's the reason I love his music so much. It's complicated, yet easy; there's just so much more to it than most music out there. This song is just brilliant!
We should all celebrate the elderly, in this world of not caring enough for each other. The ones that are not consumed by cell phones, making a warm meal and being there for the family. Lots of love in the tunes of this song.
Very well said. True words 😉
Beautiful
David, My Grandmother was also born on Jan 31st and would have been 99 today. Thank you for sharing these songs that are so deeply personal. I'm enjoying today and all the memories of my Gram. I hope you are enjoying yours too. I'm sure she is so proud of you and all of your grace & talent.
One of the best singer/songwriters of all time and that's a big statement. Another masterpiece David well Done !
no words needed.....such a lovely song and the meaning behind it just touch my heart,i miss her so much , and i have 6 grandkids,hope they remember me the same way ....
Your Grandmother lived through some disastrous time and I am sure would have been so proud of your achievement's.
This song calms me down, in a peaceful way, thanks David
My grandma just passed this morning. This song as well as An Eclipse are the songs I'm dedicating to her
I adore this song Mr. Gray! As well as your new release Skellig! I am fortunate & Blessed, to share the same birthday with your Dear Grandmother! Sláinte!
My grandma just turned 100. We all are living memories of our grandparents. Beautiful song, as always.
As a singer/ songwiter/ musician this man is as good as it gets, his music is always beautiful and poignant as are his lyrics and underlying it all is raw passion derived from deep emotion. Shine is one of the greatest songs ever written, check it out if you don't know it. Truly, I love this man!.
Love this song... must have listened to it 30 times since Tuesday
Wow, is there no end to David's wonderful poignant music?...been a fan for many years and I'm still finding loads of new, beautiful songs. Love em all 😀🎶❤️
David grey hasn't yet sang anything I've doubted ..... It's just simply music to my ears . What a great voice .
I was thinking exactly the same thing ....he is just awesome ...I'm collecting EVERTHING I can get my hands on . I don't know how I got to 57 without being aware years earlier.
I was just dancing to this with my 18 year old yorkie Nolan. Of course, tears. Also joy of remembering his life, cherishing the days lately, everyone counts
RIP Olive. This song is a beautiful memory.
Like the trees listening with all their branches.Brilliant!
i am moved by the way he sings and inflects. i can tolerate DG's head bobbing too. such a beautiful, heartfelt song. we are fortunate to be in the amidst in the presence of greatness. more of us should discover this vastly underrated songwriter. indie folk pop singers like this are rare.
Haha...the head bobbing threw me off years ago before I really got into his stuff.
I just luv this talented guy. Lucky to have seen him in LA.
usually with any performer (and especially with a prolific one like this) there are several sides that I just don't like. But with David Gray, I havent found one yet, and that is a LOT of sides, years and years of them. Many of them make me tear up, some of them make me ache, a bit, and now and then one will just grab hold and shake me like a strong wind. David, thank you.
Happy Birthday to my Grandmother, who is 92 today. Luckily she doesn't know what is going on within our family. Not knowing is such a blessing in disguise.
I can never get enough of David Gray,s music. Breath taking on so many levels.Genius
cant stop listening to this....just so soothing... stunning... perfect lullaby
Like a tree that's listening with all its branches...love the vocals on that part
"Just one simple thought in my head". Mesmerizing. So hypnotic. I am awed. What can I say, David.
You'll always be Ireland's adopted son, David! Loving ur music since '99
Bless you Olive Robinson, I know you are at peace in a very special place
Everytime he has a concert. In uk I go .music is a inspiration
Hauntly beautiful and sad it has touched my emotions just what a song should do Thanks
A-maz-Ing such a talent
" The one I love" and "Friday, I'm in love" .... Thank you David Gray. Happiest wishes for the new year. 2019 is the year from a thousand year old woman. XO
Never ceases to amaze me. David holds out a hand to you for every problem/situation in life. Comforting - the way music should be.
I've already learned the lyrics. Beautiful.
Sorry you lost your grandmother but what an amazing tribute to her! Thank you for sharing this with us.
Quite simply, stunning. x
Lovely song. Sung beautifully as always
Memories of my family and friends who have past. ♥
PAR EXCELLENCE David your dedication to Olivia your GRANDmother
TRACE ANGEL WINGS UPON thy skin SOUL HEAVENLY~
Beautiful! Songs of expression and memory like these are ways to hold on to the older generations. Especially with the way technology has taken over our lives. The younger generations are so quick to lose sight of the past. It's awesome that David can immortalize her memory in song.
Warm January embers. Thanks for sharing.
just the lullaby I needed tonight

all my last things
will be my first things
slipping from me
all my last things
will be my first things
all my last things
will be first things
slipping from me
all my last things
will be my first things
gleamy eyed and breathing hard
Im crawling on all fours
watch the sun rise
and the end of our street
gleery eyed
Im calling on all fours
watch the summer rising
at the end of our street
one simple fall in my hand
just one simple fall in my hand
just one simple fall in my hand
and now I am
entering a valley is like entering a memory
entering a valley is like entering a memory
entering a valley was like entering a memory
entering a valley like a memory
ringing in my ear some bird someday
starry eyed and breathing hard
crawling on all fours
watching summers rise
at the end of our street
stary eyed and breathing hard
crawling on all fours
brought the summer rise
at the end of our street
Just one simple fall in my head
just one simple fall in my head
just one simple fall in my head
just one simple fall in my head
like a tree that listening with all its branches
like a tree that listening with all its branches
All my last things will be my first things
slipping from me
all my last things will be first things
all my last things will be first things
slipping from me
Sweet Olive Robinson ironically Robinson is my maiden name
*Godly.*
I sing the phone book daily. Anyone think that is a little strange.
Does anyone have the words?
Update: My Gran is rapidly deteriorating . It's life Jim. But not as we know it...
I like what Jesus Christ said in the Bible. David Gray, you will see your grandmother Olive Robinson. What Jesus said will come about.
John 5:28-29
28Do not be amazed at this, for the hour is coming in
which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice 29 and
come out, those who did good things to a resurrection of life, and
those who practiced vile things to a resurrection of judgment
This is just beautiful. A lovely tribute. Stay Gold Pony Boy!
Lovely song. Sung beautifully as always
