Been homeless for five years in and out of b&bs temporary accommodation sleeping in bushes on benches and I went to view my first flat today, it’s mine signing tenancy in a week or two then moving in. The rain defiantly isn’t forever and we must all thank this man for his music. My story’s about to change ❤️
Worked with Homeless people for 3 years, after your hardships for 5 years, I'm delighted to hear of the change in your circumstances, May this move be the start of a new chapter for you brother, All the best with this new move and may it last my friend, Peace and Love
My son is 11 years old and has been suffering for years with symptoms doctors couldn’t find what it was till yesterday they found a tumor that has spread to his brain he is undergoing surgery and will have to do radiation therapy and have to have a shunt put in his head! I used to play this song with him before we found out the diagnosis and now it really makes sense! Please pray for my son Trey !! Thank you
Iemand op insta had een goed idee, stemmen op de top 2000 kan nu minimasl 7 nummers, en deze dan ook kiezen, en bij de motivatie haar naam kort benoemen of opdragen aan haar, zodat het nummer hoog eindigd. Ik vond het een mooi idre en heb meegedaan
Dear Dermot, I hope you will read this: a Dutch girl, Eva Hermans-Kroot, was diagnosed with cancer a few years ago. She shared her journey on socail media. Her positive and joyfull message touched so many in Holland. She died a few days ago. Your song Better days... was her favorite. We have a top 2000 on the radio every end of the year and now her friends started a campaign to get your song as high as posible on that list. So you ended on nr 6!! really fantastic. Thank you so much for your songs. They have a great impact.
Ik kende het nummer niet. Ik volg de muziek niet meer zo. Maar zag het in de top 2000 dus zocht het even op en las jouw verhaal. Heftig! Ik hoop dat het alle achterblijvers troost geeft. Inderdaad prachtig.
My ex and I tried for two years many years ago. I vividly remember that Stress and disappointment then the amazing joy and relief when she surprised me with a positive test. A feeling I'll never forget. Your comments 4 months old but I wanted to say congrats. What a wonderful miracle. I pray your story turns out better than mine did.
Listen I hope you never do what my friend did. Why? cause people think they end the pain with suicide. It doesn't.. all you do is pass it on to those you left behind. I'm glad you're strong. Chin up 😉

Let`s be and getting wiser and wiser and let`s AVOID the backsliding. May we all shall be protected from all the temptations. We need laws and re-create these (and change) these to "keep" life peaceful and under control. Why don`t we try to live after the laws of GOD - HIS 10 commandments? Humans are intelligence , so what is stopping us? Our PRIDE? - us being without a real knowledge? Let me ask again: WHAT IS STOPPING US TO LIVE righteously? We clearly are able to, otherwise the LIFE OF CHRIST was pointless.
This song really hits home. Im in a toxic relationship and I know its time to leave and get out and this song is helping me so much knowing that there is light at the end of the tunnel. Sending positive vibes to everyone x
Praying for you 🙏 no one deserves to be in that dark place, please do it safely & make sure they can't find you after. I know we're strangers but sometimes its easier to speak to ppl you don't know, will you please let us know you're ok & safe. Prayers & blessings to you 💜🖤💜
I very rarely comment online. I just had to today. This touched me heart and soul. I feel every word. I lost my dear husband and best friend October 24 2020. I am trying to remember what I had with thankfulness and gratitude. Many don’t get to experience what I did for 15 beautiful years. Better days are ahead as I move from pain to gratefulness. I pray that I can continue to love though some pieces are missing.
I get it 💔😞I’m going thru the same but it’s still so raw even tho months and months have passed I don’t think I’ll ever get over this!! EVER 😣😢I don’t comment either & this is so personal but I CANT STOP 😢I wish I good REM the good cuz there is loads but the PAIN!! Is too bad!! 💔🤚😞
@@Jay-O_Carlow You will get through not “over.” Our hearts can heal. The brokenness will mend. We become a new version of ourselves. Our hearts are a scattered puzzle. The pieces will come together. I pray you find strength and remember the love.
I lost my grandpa on the 22th Dec… right before Xmas, so this really hits home. I’m definitely waiting for better days ✨ soon we’ll be dancing in the sun ❤️🩹
@@margaridadom2 I'm sorry for your loss, I feel you. I lost my grandfather a few years ago and I miss him. I remember him fondly though and that helps. To think of the good things. I hope you can get to that place eventually as well.
This song is for the elite group and the new world orde. Dermot joined the beckhams and 66 6co Better days are coming for the elite and not for the controlled cheap plebs. Wake up ppl
Thank you 🥰 better days are coming... I am a survivor of child sexual abuse, homelessness and addiction. I've been clean for 3 years now and have just started my studies and moved into a new home. this song allows me to feel the pain from my past but also hopeful for the future.
Sending you so much love and strength. You’re an amazing strong powerful person who has the ability and potential to do anything. I hope your future is wonderful and full of love. All the best x Laura x
I've been battling colon cancer stage 4 at only 34 years old. Yesterday I heard I'm cancer free. This song is just wow... It came on the radio while I was waiting in the room just before surgery. - Edit: had my first scan after three months! Still clear!🎉 - Edit: scan 2 after six months! Still clear 🌸 - Edit: scan 3 after ten months. Still clear and rocking my after cancer life! - Edit: scan 4 after 14 months. Still in the clear and greatly thankful for being on the other side of the storm. Thanks for all the sweet comments. I smile every time I get a notification :) - Edit (nov, 23): scan 5 after 18 months: no evidence of disease🎉🥹 - Edit (March, 2024): scan 6 after 22 months! Everything is still in the clear. NED. Even when fear sometimes takes all control over me, I have a beautiful life and I am so thankful. - Edit: september ‘24: the scan is still clear! So happy! Almost three years since the diagnosis, happy to be alive and looking forward to making awesome memories❤.
Good for you . Stay strong , de-stress after the fight ! Now go live life to the fullest and hopefully, at the end well all skid into our graves sayin " whoa what a hell of a ride"
I’m getting divorced at 28 after a very traumatic relationship, have had significant health issues for the past 15 years, lots of family problems, other painful heartbreaks, always struggled to feel comfortable wherever I’ve lived and constantly studied and worked crazy hours. But I am now starting to heal and feel the joys of freedom / being unattached to anyone, I’m managing my health better, getting therapy for family/divorce/other issues that’s helping a lot, have plans in place to get my own flat and I have a new job (after 4 years of interviewing) where I’m respected. This song felt like that entire journey was captured perfectly, at the exact time I needed to hear it. Thank you Dermot 🙏🏻
I'm so proud of him I've seen him for the last 5 years and hoped he would make it and thank god he did cause he deserves it,and I know he's struggled for 10 years busking on the streets of Dublin day in day out just to be heard, people may think I'm biased because I'm Irish,but I'd say the same for any upcoming artist,no matter where their from, just give them a chance and they can produce magic😇🥰Dermot finally got it💚💚
This song hits so many homes. Anybody battling depression can relate to this song intensely. Masterclass from Dermot. The best songwriter out there and an awesome voice too.
I don't think this man realizes how much he impacts people, his music has has pulled me out more dark times than I can count! I saw him live and it was such a surreal moment in my life! He continues to blow me away each time a new song comes out!
Agree his music has saved my life more than once . I have bpd ptsd depression n anxiety. N when I'm having a hard time I listen too Dermot and it makes everything better 😁😁
@@carlachurch4371 I relate to you. Dermot’s music really touches me and helps me express my feelings when I’m finding it tough. I hope you find happiness and peace 💓
This song served as anthem for me in 2024. It felt impossible to believe that better days we're on the way. Depression had a strong hold on me - it felt like my personal and professional life would never get back on track. Happy to say that I'm starting 2025 with a new job that I'm so excited for and strong, beautiful relatipnships with family and friends (some new, some rekindled). The better days have come, and I'm beyond grateful for the hope that music like yours gave me in my darkest day. Can't wait to finally see you live in NYC one day ❤️
I genuinely can’t name any other artist who lyrically and sonically has made me Cry and relate to more than Dermot. His music means legitimately everything to me
Music has always been an outlet for me and a way of life. This is beautiful. I am fighting stage 4 terminal cancer, hadn’t heard of this artist till a friend sent me this song. I have no idea how I have missed this artist over the years but I did. The day he sent me this song was a bad one on depression, as I was given 6 months recently told I’ll be on chemo the rest of my life, I have a 5 yo daughter and am only 35 (I complained about an issue with my health for 16 months to end up having a heart attack that led to finding the tumor and now it’s too late) this will be played at my funeral and I do pray for a miracle every day and that I’ll get more years. Thank you music! 💜
I am dancing in the sun! After 7 years of battling with depression and suicidal thoughts I'm free! Free and I love life more than ever before! I wish this to everyone reading! Your day is coming too! I've heard this song on the radio other day and I was so happy to hear it and made me think back at my life for past 7 years and how it was written perfect in fitting my life! And I am singing this song, together!
Wow your comment hit so hard I saw the one above and it felt like my story and then yours completes my life right now I truly hope I get to where yous are feeling now in life, I wish yous all the best thank goodness times have changed for the better love and respects 🙏 to you ❤
Ik vroeg me al af waarom dit nummer zo hoog in de top2000 stond, kennelijk is het dus een eerbetoon aan een overleden persoon. Respect voor iedereen die daar aan bijgedragen heeft, dit zal de familie van de overledene goed doen.
@@Sumnerstrain thank you. I cried my little heart out the first few times I listened cos it’s like he’s singing right to me. But now it’s my fight song ✨
9 months ago, I was standing on the train tracks in the middle of the night, waiting on that train to come and take me away from my agony. The regular 4am train never showed. The gratitude I feel is indescribable. My life has changed immensely since that time. There is hope in the darkness❤
I don’t know how you keep making songs that apply to my current struggles. All u know Is that I’m grateful you exist, and that your music found your way into my life all those years ago. Thank you, endlessly.
Just heard this song on America's Got Talent by a young man named Lee 21 years old from England. He killed it. He was amazing. Gave me goosebumps and I rewinded it 3x's. Now it's saved on my list. He did it justice.
Listening to this song while struggling with my mental health helps me so much. Soon hopefully it will pass and I’ll be dancing in the sun with my beautiful children
Battled cancer for a year. was told just before christmas it was back. Was devastated, a full year of hospitals/treatments etc. Have to start at the beginning. Driving home and crying when *Better Days* came on the radio. Sun suddenly burst through the clouds. It really lifted my spirits. Battle on everyone. Soon We will be dancing the sun.
“The rain ain’t permanent.” “Better days are coming.” Thank you for this Dermot Kennedy 🖤 These lyrics just hit me every single time I listen to this song. I’m longing and hoping for better days and these nights never seem to end. Loneliness is my shadow self, in the dark and days, and waiting for a train that just won’t come, is nothing but a painful drag. Hoping I can dance again. I’m holding onto that. Thank you Dermot Kennedy.
@@amilkerimov6665 makes me feel soooo bad the way you kids have to deal with the really shitty hand you’ve been dealt with!You never even heard the word depression when I was young!Now it’s all you hear!!!Take care,guys!!!👌🏻
I hope one day you will find your happy place until then never give up and try to think positive no matter how hard times are keep a little hope we cant face our future without leaving the past
This song hits home big time. 46 and just been diagnosed with grade 2 invasive ducal carcinoma breast cancer.. scary times but this song is such a help (cried alot with it too) # kickingcancersarse
Fasting truly does miracles for this disease, you CAN reverse it and heal it completely on your own if you are diligent enough. This and plus getting rid of ALL processed foods including gluten products like bread or pasta, only vegetables, fruit, and pure grass fed meat allowed, some dairy too only if they are pure and not loaded with additives. Best to stay away from all grains they mess up your intestinal walls and cause all types of autoimmune diseases all over the body which worsen the current condition. May GOD help you and be with you, and come to Jesus if you haven’t already so you can be saved from the death that is everlasting which is hell, and brought into the Kingdom of God which is coming very soon. All the best and God bless you!
This song is so powerful and amazing I was suffering from Depression and suicideal thoughts! And felt God speaking through this song I pray that this song reaches others too don't give up Repent and believe in Jesus Name
Glad you're on the mend bro 💪 but trust me suicide is never the answer I'm a 33 year old man that's battled everyday since I was just 18 months due to my dad taking his own life it will just pass the pain onto your closest loved ones and break them aswell. Don't get me wrong I've thought about it for sure but always promised my family I'll never do it and make them suffer like I have. Talking definitely helps.
Bro, please take a moment to get cool, calm and collected again. We all have wild thoughts in pressurized situations, but do not forget that after rapids in the river, there will be calm waters...feeling insecure or down? Reach out to whoever wants to listnen and discuss...try to see the sun instead of the dark clouds covered in rain.
Better days are comin' If no one told you I hate to hear you cryin' Over the phone, dear For seven years runnin' You've been a soldier But better days are comin' Better days are comin' for you So when the night feels like forever (Mh-mh) I'll remember what you said to me I know you've been hurtin' Waitin' on a train that just won't come The rain, it ain't permanent And soon, we'll be dancin' in the sun We'll be dancin' in the sun And we'll sing your song together (eh-eh, eh-eh) And we'll sing your song together (eh-eh, eh-eh) We never miss the flowers Until the sun's down We never count the hours Until they're runnin' out You're on the other side of the storm now You should be so proud And better days are comin' Better days are comin' for you So when the night feels like forever (Mh-mh) I'll remember what you said to me I know you've been hurting (is our time ever soothing?) Waiting on a train that just won't come The rain, it ain't permanent (is our time ever soothing?) And soon, we'll be dancing in the sun We'll be dancing in the sun And we'll sing your song together (eh-eh, eh-eh) And we'll sing your song together (eh-eh, eh-eh) And we'll sing your song together (eh-eh, eh-eh) And we'll sing your song together (eh-eh, eh-eh) Your story's gonna change Just wait for better days You've seen too much of pain Now, you don't even know That your story's gonna change Just wait for better days I promise you, I won't let go I know you've been hurting Waiting on a train that just won't come The rain, it ain't permanent (is our time ever soothing?)

Truly angelic song. Absolute Proof to me that the darkness we are living in will be beaten by the light. Good always wins! Thank you universe for this wonderful song! Bless you Dermot and anyone waking up to the better days!. Love to you all xxx
When this song came out I was going through my second miscarriage and I would listen to this song everyday to get through it. I now listen to it with my 2 month old son in my arms. Forever grateful for Dermot’s music
Sorry for your loss Sara,hopefully your scars will heal with time,Be kind to yourself and patient, wish you peace and love there is something so cathartic about music,It's balm for your soul,❤
Needed this! I have been a parent for 7 years, majority spent as a stay at home father. And while wonderful, it's been tough as hell. And after the last year and a half I am completely running on empty. This song beautifully matches up to how I feel. Here is to better days!
I hear you! Also stay at home parent I hope ur days have gotten better I have 2 special needs kids it’s being such a long road school holidays an lock downs.. literally running on Zero for a long time 💔
2021 , I listened to this song while going through depression and a broken heart hoping for a better day. Now 2024, i am filled with joy, testimony and enjoying my better days. God is Good. Thank you Jesus, and thank you Dermot for this beautiful song. God bless you BIG 🙏
This song is infectious, I got emotional the first time I listened to it. When I met my wife I had virtually nothing, no money, no good clothes to wear but she never disrespected me, those days were hard and rough, she sticked to me and assured me that better days will surely come, now we are happily married with 3 beautiful kids, I can now afford those things I couldn’t afford, she’s my best friend, so much respect to her. This song is for us. Thanks Dermot.
I'm so grateful for songs like these. I'm almost 40 and life has been, well, not worth it. I've been fighting every day of my life to be here and things only seem to get worse. I lost my mom recently in a horrible way that left me in the biggest existential crisis of my life. I'm only still here because of my 15 year old son. I'm all he has now. So, the only option is to keep fighting. This song is beautiful, validating and gives me hope. Thank you so much for this.
A few months ago, I was going through one of the most depressing period of my life. But my bf sent me this song and it gave me the courage to take one day at a time. And it's true, better days are coming. At that time, I was in a dark place but today, the sun is shining on me. Thank you so much Nyaanga for having my back. ❤
4 december 2024 The Netherlands I just read that Eva Hermans-Kroot loves this song. I must say that she❤❤ loved this song. She died 30 november 2024 because of lung cancer at the age of 26 years. She was known throughout The Netherlands because she was always positieve and she hoped for her 27th birthday and Christmas 2024. She was a very beautiful lady and this song is for Eva. R.I.P Beautiful lady ❤❤❤
I just pray about my life to god all the time and just patiently wait for someone to come and take me to salvation and rescue me from an impossible situation! I know God is good and I am gratefull and appreciated of everything I have, AMEN!
The nights I was in intensive care for weeks.. this was my song. So when the night feels like forever. Still makes me cry. Thank you for helping me get through 🥰
@jackwillers8946 .All I know is this song has helped me so much. Means so much to me.listen to this a lot.Dermot helps so many with his brilliant songs.pure class.❤️🙏✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️
Genuinely thought about ending it all last week. Plowing my car into a wall. This song came on the radio and instantly lifted my mood. So thank you dk. I wouldn't be here now if not for a simple song
I myself not doing so well, i cry a lot at the state of things. Just know you arent alone, you were born for a time such as this and you shouldnt give up. I have no friends.......and ive gone hermit mode for 2 years. All i know is God is real and he loves us, dont give up.......you are part of this huge symphony we call life and it wouldnt be a master piece without you as we all contribute. May not feel like it to you but you are special and God knew you before he created you......you are here for a reason.
This song made me wait for another day. I was going to give up. This song spoke to me, held me while I was crying uncontrollably in the middle of the night. This song was a whisper asking me to stay. I don't know how to thank you for creating this song. You gave me hope. I'm sending you and every single person reading this all my love. 💕🥹
I’m currently pregnant with a very poorly baby, I first heard this song on my way to fetal medicine unit thinking that my baby may have died as the last time I saw them at that point he was given a prognosis of 5% for survival. I was told not to expect a heart beat. I’m now 22 weeks pregnant he’s still alive and still fighting and this song gives me hope every single day. I’ve just read the comments and it seems that I’m not the only person this song has been helping. I can only thank you ❤ when my baby is born he will be told that this is his song and I’ll play it too him for years xxx
Que dios cuide de ti y tu bebe,sera un verdadero guerrero y nada ni nadie jamas en la vida lo van a detener,el tiene una misión que cumplir así sera amen,que dios te bendiga
The 'dancing in the sun' lyric and the encouragement I get from the way he songs that line is all I need. Dermot Kennedy, remember the name. Such a hero making songs for those who need to be healed or reminded that they're gods gift
I just heard this in a restaurant and I tell you the tears flowed right down. I NEEDED TO HEAR THIS THE EXACT MOMENT IT PLAYED. I know the universe is looking out for me. Indeed, the pain of life cuts deep. I needed this never heard it before. Now. It's my song.
I came here to say this guys lyrics hit deep in your heart and soul. Wow! I never really listened or paid attention before. I came here for a different Better Days song, clicked this accidentally, listened, liked, read comments. That's when a tear dropped. Peoples stories related to this song; deep, heartbreaking, soul hurting, also happy stories, miracles and joy. Comments got me again.
Last week this time, after walking out of a stressful interview, at the dinner place, I came across this song. I almost cried in public as it hit so many nerves deep down inside me. Reflecting my life so far it really has been tough. I could go on and on, from how I was always a 'troubled kid' when I was young, and how much problems my family has, to the experiences I had in the recent years (about 4), which started with my grandmother passing away, coinciding with me graduating college and COVID, all at the same time... Today I just got a call back, informing that I was actually offered that job that I was interviewing for. Needless to say, it's the true beginning of a new, and I believe, a much better chapter of my life. Can't help but to come back here. As my story IS changing, and better days as I know it, ARE coming. This is really a powerful song, that says precisely, about someone who has been though hardships and trying to fight a way out of it.
Was in a toxic and abusive relationship for just under 7 years. Broke free in Feb this year. Been a battle since to heal and get back what he took from me. My voice, my confidence, my pride and my empathy. I had to become cold to handle everything. This song reminds me of the light I am seeing then light that I am chasing at the end of the tunnel.
Been suffering from a painful, deliberating condition for years. Currently having the worst flare up for 12 years.my wife is my rock and without her god knows where I would be. This song gives me hope for the future.
Every morning i listen to the morning radio show on Q-Music NL one day there was a girl on the phone who was permanently sick (lung cancer) and she explained what this song ment to her. So they decided to turn on this song every morning to give support to Eva it honestly gives me goosebumps every time i hear it. Since friday they made the song "alarm song" for 1 week so they play it a lot more every single day and i am so happy they did. I wish all the best and support to her. And a big thanks to Q-music NL
This song is giving me life!! It hits deep, like I can’t even describe it! And omg that ‘Hey-hey, hey-hey, hey, hey-hey’ part - holy crap, that part gives me goosebumps every single time, this song is fiiiiire!!
This is one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard. Thank you so much for this song. It is helping me daily as I fight through these dark clouds which continue to follow me around. Fortunately the dark clouds are outnumbered by the amazing friends who are on my side. Be blessed. You are in my prayers. Bradley Russ
Wat een prachtige lied, ik kende het niet maar het grijpt me wel aan. Rust zacht lieve Eva, je bent een voorbeeld voor ons allen! Ik bewonderde je ontzettend, wat een enorme kracht ging er altijd van je uit.
My 9 year old younger brother passed away on Sept 9th of this year. He was born with a heart condition and was currently in the hospital waiting for a heart transplant. He unexpectedly got an infection in his blood and passed away the next day. They said he has 2 weeks left but it was more like 2 days. This was his favorite song at the time and it was played at his funeral. This song makes me cry immediately after hearing the first beat. Please pray for my Bubba, Logan.
Oh sweetheart im so sorry. You've been thru real pain. Im hoping better days come to you. You've been through so much. Praying for you and your family dearly. ❤
My younger brother committed suicide last weekend by overdosing on something. He was found with headphones on, presumably listening to something. This is his youtube account. He made a playlist containing 6 songs that was edited the day he passed. This is one of the 6 songs. With the method he used, he was dead after about 30 minutes, probably unconscious around 12 minutes. I like to think that it was peaceful for him with his music on. I love you Myles, I'll miss you everyday for the rest of my life.
cant believe its been almost year since me and my wife went to see him in Glasgow; we were fortunate to be able to do the meet and greet and get to stand with Dermot for a photo opportunity , two months later my wife was diagnosed with cancer, and this song has gotten me through many a dark days when i just couldnt see the end when my wife was at her most sickest, Thankfully she is now cancer free and i thank god for that. But we both had an amazing time at Dermots concert in Glasgow 2023. So thank you for your songs.
I am effing obsessed with Dermot's songs and his simple and selfless personality. From songs such as 'Lost, Rome, Boston, Shelter, After Rain and more, I keep wondering how this Irish song writer casually but beautifully summarizes my life anytime he sings😊!! I find them so much relatable and so so resonate with me. Ever since a friend introduced one of his songs to me (Out numbered), I have followed him like religion. Someday I will see Dermot Performs and that will be a dream come true.🙏🏻 Love from Sierra Leone 🇸🇱
Seim. Whats crazy is that I first heard him from the song of Outnumbered and then I researched about him like crazy and it took off from there. All his songs are amazing its insane.
"So what's the past for I'll need it if love don't last long you can run around infinite in my head" I sent this to a connection of mine and it stuck with me ever since 🎶❤️
Dermot is simply a beast, vocally, lyrically and musically. His soul just strikes you when you hear his voice. His music was the themetune to the most special relationship I have ever had. My beautiful husband who passed away a month ago, my family have been sending me this song, to comfort me, words that my husband would wish for me, it's just amazing how Dermot's music spoke to us together and now even separated by death speaks, music is such a powerful medium and Dermot is an absolute musical wizard. 🕊️💚💛
The music always just comes at the right time, and resonates with everyone regardless of what they're going through. That's what you call timeless music. Can't wait to see you live in September 🙌🏾
I suffered from an antibiotic adverse reaction in 2015 that basically blew up my brain and nervous system. I was 21. My life has been hell for the last 7 years. I’m finally healing myself after no doctor could help me or give me answers, I was essentially gaslight and abandoned. I am my own healer. This song empowers me each day to keep moving forward and look for the light at the end of this long traumatic tunnel.

Iemand op insta had een goed idee, stemmen op de top 2000 kan nu minimasl 7 nummers, en deze dan ook kiezen, en bij de motivatie haar naam kort benoemen of opdragen aan haar, zodat het nummer hoog eindigd. Ik vond het een mooi idre en heb meegedaan
Ik ook voor Eva😢
Dear Dermot, I hope you will read this: a Dutch girl, Eva Hermans-Kroot, was diagnosed with cancer a few years ago. She shared her journey on socail media. Her positive and joyfull message touched so many in Holland. She died a few days ago. Your song Better days... was her favorite. We have a top 2000 on the radio every end of the year and now her friends started a campaign to get your song as high as posible on that list. So you ended on nr 6!! really fantastic. Thank you so much for your songs. They have a great impact.
Dat ze elke dag dit nummer mag horen daarboven 💕🕊
@@Just-an-nobody Yes!!
Ik kende het nummer niet. Ik volg de muziek niet meer zo. Maar zag het in de top 2000 dus zocht het even op en las jouw verhaal. Heftig! Ik hoop dat het alle achterblijvers troost geeft. Inderdaad prachtig.
😢💔🕊
Everybody well grounded… love health friendship counts

Congratulations!! I wish you and your baby all the best ❤
Congratulations! Wishing you and miracle baby everything good in this world! 🎉
congratulations!
My ex and I tried for two years many years ago. I vividly remember that Stress and disappointment then the amazing joy and relief when she surprised me with a positive test. A feeling I'll never forget. Your comments 4 months old but I wanted to say congrats. What a wonderful miracle. I pray your story turns out better than mine did.
I'm at the lowest point I've ever been in my life right now. This song is what keeps me going. Thank you.
Better days are coming.
you got this. i know you do. i dont even know who you are, but you have my vote of confidence.
Stay strong only better days to come
I was there too, 2 months ago
Listen I hope you never do what my friend did. Why? cause people think they end the pain with suicide. It doesn't.. all you do is pass it on to those you left behind. I'm glad you're strong. Chin up 😉
Have you guys heard of teen challenge?
I am 114 days clean today and this song has got me through so much in this journey ❤️
Im 201 days sober today, first time in 29yrs...we are so blessed to be able to change the story of our lives!

We (those in CHRIST) are called and expected to GO AND SIN NO MORE, sadly none of us are fully free nor protected to fail and backslide:

Hosea 14:4 | View whole chapter | See verse in context I will heal their backsliding, I will love them freely: for mine anger is turned away from him.

And I saw, when for all the causes whereby backsliding Israel committed adultery I had put her away, and given her a bill of divorce; yet her treacherous sister Judah feared not, but went and played the harlot also.
Jeremiah 3:6 | View whole chapter | See verse in context
The LORD said also unto me in the days of Josiah the king, Hast thou seen that which backsliding Israel hath done? she is gone up upon every high mountain and under every green tree, and there hath played the harlot.

Go and proclaim these words toward the north, and say, Return, thou backsliding Israel, saith the LORD; and I will not cause mine anger to fall upon you: for I am merciful, saith the LORD, and I will not keep anger for ever.
Let`s not be fools and take GOD`S love and longsuffering granted:
Even though we read, that HE forgives our backsliding and calls us all back, let`s not take it all granted and just let the backsliding happening. Let`s be and getting wiser and wiser and let`s AVOID the backsliding.
May we all shall be protected from all the temptations.
We need laws and re-create these (and change) these to "keep" life peaceful and under control. Why don`t we try to live after the laws of GOD - HIS 10 commandments?
Humans are intelligence , so what is stopping us? Our PRIDE? - us being without a real knowledge?
Let me ask again: WHAT IS STOPPING US TO LIVE righteously? We clearly are able to, otherwise the LIFE OF CHRIST was pointless.

I very rarely comment online. I just had to today. This touched me heart and soul. I feel every word. I lost my dear husband and best friend October 24 2020. I am trying to remember what I had with thankfulness and gratitude. Many don’t get to experience what I did for 15 beautiful years. Better days are ahead as I move from pain to gratefulness. I pray that I can continue to love though some pieces are missing.
❤❤❤
I get it 💔😞I’m going thru the same but it’s still so raw even tho months and months have passed I don’t think I’ll ever get over this!! EVER 😣😢I don’t comment either & this is so personal but I CANT STOP 😢I wish I good REM the good cuz there is loads but the PAIN!! Is too bad!! 💔🤚😞
@@Jay-O_Carlow You will get through not “over.” Our hearts can heal. The brokenness will mend. We become a new version of ourselves. Our hearts are a scattered puzzle. The pieces will come together. I pray you find strength and remember the love.

"The rain it ain't permanent, and soon we'll be dancing in the sun." - That part always makes me smile, what a great song.

I've never heard a song by Dermot Kennedy that I didn't like instantly. This guy is the most consistent I've seen.
Same here.
I agree 100%
Never
The killer is a coward is the only song i find it hard to connect to, but don't know why.
This song is for the elite group and the new world orde. Dermot joined the beckhams and 66 6co
Better days are coming for the elite and not for the controlled cheap plebs. Wake up ppl
Thank you 🥰 better days are coming... I am a survivor of child sexual abuse, homelessness and addiction. I've been clean for 3 years now and have just started my studies and moved into a new home. this song allows me to feel the pain from my past but also hopeful for the future.
love to hear when people overcome so much hardship and survive wishing you well stay strong
Sending you so much love and strength. You’re an amazing strong powerful person who has the ability and potential to do anything. I hope your future is wonderful and full of love. All the best x Laura x
Congratulations my friend ❤
One word for you WARRIOR 💪

Let's be honest he never disappointed us
""That's true"""
True!!!!
Never ever!
Yessssss
Facts!!
I've been battling colon cancer stage 4 at only 34 years old. Yesterday I heard I'm cancer free. This song is just wow... It came on the radio while I was waiting in the room just before surgery.
- Edit: had my first scan after three months! Still clear!🎉
- Edit: scan 2 after six months! Still clear 🌸
- Edit: scan 3 after ten months. Still clear and rocking my after cancer life!
- Edit: scan 4 after 14 months. Still in the clear and greatly thankful for being on the other side of the storm. Thanks for all the sweet comments. I smile every time I get a notification :)
- Edit (nov, 23): scan 5 after 18 months: no evidence of disease🎉🥹
- Edit (March, 2024): scan 6 after 22 months! Everything is still in the clear. NED. Even when fear sometimes takes all control over me, I have a beautiful life and I am so thankful.
- Edit: september ‘24: the scan is still clear! So happy! Almost three years since the diagnosis, happy to be alive and looking forward to making awesome memories❤.
Good for you . Stay strong , de-stress after the fight ! Now go live life to the fullest and hopefully, at the end well all skid into our graves sayin " whoa what a hell of a ride"
Wow!! You blessed and congratulations 🎊!!!

I’m getting divorced at 28 after a very traumatic relationship, have had significant health issues for the past 15 years, lots of family problems, other painful heartbreaks, always struggled to feel comfortable wherever I’ve lived and constantly studied and worked crazy hours. But I am now starting to heal and feel the joys of freedom / being unattached to anyone, I’m managing my health better, getting therapy for family/divorce/other issues that’s helping a lot, have plans in place to get my own flat and I have a new job (after 4 years of interviewing) where I’m respected. This song felt like that entire journey was captured perfectly, at the exact time I needed to hear it. Thank you Dermot 🙏🏻
❤
With all my soul.... Thank you for you❤
Dermot is one of the best singer-songwriters out there. Lyrically, he's a genius.
True that👌
lyrically he has made better songs but in overall lyrically he's a genius
@@joaopedroguerreiro6482 Agree!
I'm so proud of him I've seen him for the last 5 years and hoped he would make it and thank god he did cause he deserves it,and I know he's struggled for 10 years busking on the streets of Dublin day in day out just to be heard, people may think I'm biased because I'm Irish,but I'd say the same for any upcoming artist,no matter where their from, just give them a chance and they can produce magic😇🥰Dermot finally got it💚💚
Right!!!!
This song hits so many homes. Anybody battling depression can relate to this song intensely. Masterclass from Dermot. The best songwriter out there and an awesome voice too.
You got this right bro.
Makes me cry every time

I don't think this man realizes how much he impacts people, his music has has pulled me out more dark times than I can count! I saw him live and it was such a surreal moment in my life! He continues to blow me away each time a new song comes out!
Relate 👌👌👌
Relate! I watched him live in 2019! Best artist I’ve been to see live and so surreal
Agree his music has saved my life more than once . I have bpd ptsd depression n anxiety. N when I'm having a hard time I listen too Dermot and it makes everything better 😁😁
@@carlachurch4371 I relate to you. Dermot’s music really touches me and helps me express my feelings when I’m finding it tough. I hope you find happiness and peace 💓
With 3.2m veiws i do think he knows.
This song served as anthem for me in 2024. It felt impossible to believe that better days we're on the way. Depression had a strong hold on me - it felt like my personal and professional life would never get back on track. Happy to say that I'm starting 2025 with a new job that I'm so excited for and strong, beautiful relatipnships with family and friends (some new, some rekindled). The better days have come, and I'm beyond grateful for the hope that music like yours gave me in my darkest day. Can't wait to finally see you live in NYC one day ❤️
I genuinely can’t name any other artist who lyrically and sonically has made me Cry and relate to more than Dermot. His music means legitimately everything to me
Precisely! I feel this way too!!
Same. Same. Same. Same!
I’m so thankful for him honestly 😍
i feel this
What’s your favourite song of his dude?
Music has always been an outlet for me and a way of life. This is beautiful. I am fighting stage 4 terminal cancer, hadn’t heard of this artist till a friend sent me this song. I have no idea how I have missed this artist over the years but I did. The day he sent me this song was a bad one on depression, as I was given 6 months recently told I’ll be on chemo the rest of my life, I have a 5 yo daughter and am only 35 (I complained about an issue with my health for 16 months to end up having a heart attack that led to finding the tumor and now it’s too late) this will be played at my funeral and I do pray for a miracle every day and that I’ll get more years. Thank you music! 💜
You will gonna make it! I did! Music is and was the most important life also!
My prayers are with you. You shall make it. You shall dance in the sun again! Don't give up! Good luck.
Gosh this hit me hard.... thoughts and prayers with you❤
I am so sorry, I hope that you are blessed with a miracle. Lots of love to you and your family ❤️ Keep fighting, you’ve got this.
Keep fighting! Don't lose hope. 🙌🏼
I am dancing in the sun! After 7 years of battling with depression and suicidal thoughts I'm free!
Free and I love life more than ever before! I wish this to everyone reading! Your day is coming too!
I've heard this song on the radio other day and I was so happy to hear it and made me think back at my life for past 7 years and how it was written perfect in fitting my life! And I am singing this song, together!
Congratulations 👏👏👏
Just kept the going, beautiful soul...
Congrats!! ❤❤❤❤❤
Congrats to you. God Bless x

9 months ago, I was standing on the train tracks in the middle of the night, waiting on that train to come and take me away from my agony. The regular 4am train never showed. The gratitude I feel is indescribable. My life has changed immensely since that time. There is hope in the darkness❤
❤❤❤❤❤❤
I pray for u to get that train ❤❤❤
Praise God the train Didn't arrive and for the Hope you now have..The Lord intervened that Night ...God is Awesome 🙏🙏🙏❤

Battled cancer for a year. was told just before christmas it was back. Was devastated, a full year of hospitals/treatments etc. Have to start at the beginning. Driving home and crying when *Better Days* came on the radio. Sun suddenly burst through the clouds. It really lifted my spirits. Battle on everyone. Soon We will be dancing the sun.
My clinical depression loves this man in highs and lows. He is a treasure to this world.

These lyrics just hit me every single time I listen to this song. I’m longing and hoping for better days and these nights never seem to end. Loneliness is my shadow self, in the dark and days, and waiting for a train that just won’t come, is nothing but a painful drag. Hoping I can dance again. I’m holding onto that. Thank you Dermot Kennedy.

Hope everything works out OK for janene you kick that cancer arse be strong you can do it.
Fasting truly does miracles for this disease, you CAN reverse it and heal it completely on your own if you are diligent enough. This and plus getting rid of ALL processed foods including gluten products like bread or pasta, only vegetables, fruit, and pure grass fed meat allowed, some dairy too only if they are pure and not loaded with additives. Best to stay away from all grains they mess up your intestinal walls and cause all types of autoimmune diseases all over the body which worsen the current condition. May GOD help you and be with you, and come to Jesus if you haven’t already so you can be saved from the death that is everlasting which is hell, and brought into the Kingdom of God which is coming very soon. All the best and God bless you!
Good luck my g

Thanks mate. That compliment is much appreciated!😎

This song is so powerful and amazing I was suffering from Depression and suicideal thoughts! And felt God speaking through this song I pray that this song reaches others too don't give up Repent and believe in Jesus Name
Glad you're on the mend bro 💪 but trust me suicide is never the answer I'm a 33 year old man that's battled everyday since I was just 18 months due to my dad taking his own life it will just pass the pain onto your closest loved ones and break them aswell. Don't get me wrong I've thought about it for sure but always promised my family I'll never do it and make them suffer like I have.
Talking definitely helps.
Bro, please take a moment to get cool, calm and collected again. We all have wild thoughts in pressurized situations, but do not forget that after rapids in the river, there will be calm waters...feeling insecure or down? Reach out to whoever wants to listnen and discuss...try to see the sun instead of the dark clouds covered in rain.

Better days are comin'
If no one told you
I hate to hear you cryin'
Over the phone, dear
For seven years runnin'
You've been a soldier
But better days are comin'
Better days are comin' for you
So when the night feels like forever
(Mh-mh)
I'll remember what you said to me
I know you've been hurtin'
Waitin' on a train that just won't come
The rain, it ain't permanent
And soon, we'll be dancin' in the sun
We'll be dancin' in the sun
And we'll sing your song together (eh-eh, eh-eh)
And we'll sing your song together (eh-eh, eh-eh)
We never miss the flowers
Until the sun's down
We never count the hours
Until they're runnin' out
You're on the other side of the storm now
You should be so proud
And better days are comin'
Better days are comin' for you
So when the night feels like forever
(Mh-mh)
I'll remember what you said to me
I know you've been hurting (is our time ever soothing?)
Waiting on a train that just won't come
The rain, it ain't permanent (is our time ever soothing?)
And soon, we'll be dancing in the sun
We'll be dancing in the sun
And we'll sing your song together (eh-eh, eh-eh)
And we'll sing your song together (eh-eh, eh-eh)
And we'll sing your song together (eh-eh, eh-eh)
And we'll sing your song together (eh-eh, eh-eh)
Your story's gonna change
Just wait for better days
You've seen too much of pain
Now, you don't even know
That your story's gonna change
Just wait for better days
I promise you, I won't let go
I know you've been hurting
Waiting on a train that just won't come
The rain, it ain't permanent (is our time ever soothing?)
And soon, we'll be dancing in the sun
We'll be dancing in the sun
And we'll sing your song together (eh-eh, eh-eh)
And we'll sing your song together (eh-eh, eh-eh)
And we'll sing your song together (eh-eh, eh-eh)
And we'll sing your song together (eh-eh, eh-eh)

Needed this! I have been a parent for 7 years, majority spent as a stay at home father. And while wonderful, it's been tough as hell. And after the last year and a half I am completely running on empty. This song beautifully matches up to how I feel. Here is to better days!
I know how you feel xxx
I know it’ll get better
I hear you, same here, my boy has a mental disability... Remember you are not alone in the same situation 🤗
Blessings your way from a single mom... Love from Germany.
I hear you! Also stay at home parent I hope ur days have gotten better I have 2 special needs kids it’s being such a long road school holidays an lock downs.. literally running on Zero for a long time 💔
This song has gotten me through the last nearly two years. And here I am crying my eyes out to it all over again. Words seem to ease the pain.
Its took me and my wife exactly 7 yrs to get her pregnant thru difficulties. This song is n was our journey. Bless you dermot
2021 , I listened to this song while going through depression and a broken heart hoping for a better day. Now 2024, i am filled with joy, testimony and enjoying my better days. God is Good. Thank you Jesus, and thank you Dermot for this beautiful song. God bless you BIG 🙏
This song is infectious, I got emotional the first time I listened to it. When I met my wife I had virtually nothing, no money, no good clothes to wear but she never disrespected me, those days were hard and rough, she sticked to me and assured me that better days will surely come, now we are happily married with 3 beautiful kids, I can now afford those things I couldn’t afford, she’s my best friend, so much respect to her. This song is for us. Thanks Dermot.
This song has been such a gift to me in one of the hardest years of my life.
Me too x
I'm so grateful for songs like these. I'm almost 40 and life has been, well, not worth it. I've been fighting every day of my life to be here and things only seem to get worse. I lost my mom recently in a horrible way that left me in the biggest existential crisis of my life. I'm only still here because of my 15 year old son. I'm all he has now. So, the only option is to keep fighting. This song is beautiful, validating and gives me hope. Thank you so much for this.
Just a random guy in Cali praying for you! Christ changed my life and gave me hope. I pray the same for you.

Hi, I'm Valence from US, are you single?
A few months ago, I was going through one of the most depressing period of my life. But my bf sent me this song and it gave me the courage to take one day at a time. And it's true, better days are coming. At that time, I was in a dark place but today, the sun is shining on me. Thank you so much Nyaanga for having my back. ❤

I just read that Eva Hermans-Kroot loves this song. I must say that she❤❤ loved this song. She died 30 november 2024 because of lung cancer at the age of 26 years. She was known throughout The Netherlands because she was always positieve and she hoped for her 27th birthday and Christmas 2024.
She was a very beautiful lady and this song is for Eva. R.I.P Beautiful lady ❤❤❤
♥♥♥♥♥
I just pray about my life to god all the time and just patiently wait for someone to come and take me to salvation and rescue me from an impossible situation! I know God is good and I am gratefull and appreciated of everything I have, AMEN!
The nights I was in intensive care for weeks.. this was my song. So when the night feels like forever. Still makes me cry. Thank you for helping me get through 🥰

@jackwillers8946 .All I know is this song has helped me so much. Means so much to me.listen to this a lot.Dermot helps so many with his brilliant songs.pure class.❤️🙏✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️
Genuinely thought about ending it all last week. Plowing my car into a wall. This song came on the radio and instantly lifted my mood. So thank you dk. I wouldn't be here now if not for a simple song
I myself not doing so well, i cry a lot at the state of things. Just know you arent alone, you were born for a time such as this and you shouldnt give up. I have no friends.......and ive gone hermit mode for 2 years. All i know is God is real and he loves us, dont give up.......you are part of this huge symphony we call life and it wouldnt be a master piece without you as we all contribute. May not feel like it to you but you are special and God knew you before he created you......you are here for a reason.
Stay strong peter. Not easy I know, but plz try. Take mate.
Please don't do it mate u have so much to live for 🙏
Keep listening to the signs 💛 they'll guide you to the light ✨
Love and light ❤️
I know how you feel don't think I can keeping going in this lief this song helps words hope you be ok
This song made me wait for another day. I was going to give up. This song spoke to me, held me while I was crying uncontrollably in the middle of the night. This song was a whisper asking me to stay. I don't know how to thank you for creating this song. You gave me hope. I'm sending you and every single person reading this all my love. 💕🥹
I’m currently pregnant with a very poorly baby, I first heard this song on my way to fetal medicine unit thinking that my baby may have died as the last time I saw them at that point he was given a prognosis of 5% for survival. I was told not to expect a heart beat. I’m now 22 weeks pregnant he’s still alive and still fighting and this song gives me hope every single day. I’ve just read the comments and it seems that I’m not the only person this song has been helping. I can only thank you ❤ when my baby is born he will be told that this is his song and I’ll play it too him for years xxx
Que dios cuide de ti y tu bebe,sera un verdadero guerrero y nada ni nadie jamas en la vida lo van a detener,el tiene una misión que cumplir así sera amen,que dios te bendiga
How did it go
I hope you could welcome a Happy baby 🤗
It's crazy how many people come back to this everyday.This song is legendary♪
Your channel is legendary 💪❤️
😍😍😍😍😍🏚🏚🏚🏚🏚🏚🏚🏚🏚🏚🏚🏚🏚🏥🏥🏥🏥🏖🏖🏖🏖🏖
Yh it’s crazy how many people come back it’s got to be one of the worst songs atm the lyrics are shit and he can’t sing
@@money_posse ??????????????????????????
As well as your channel
My man always coming through with the TRUTH.. and he's shirtless in this video? OWWWWEEEEEE
We don't deserve shirtless Dermot
I'm so grateful for shirtless Dermot right now 😂🙏
Rightttt? haha
Need a napkin for the drool? Lol
I didn’t know I needed shirtless Dermot till I saw SHIRTLESS DERMOT!!! And then the better days kicked in 😤😭
Love this song, it gives me hope that better days are coming, that maybe the future won't be that bad🤧
Dermot Kennedy is criminally underrated his music just hits different and we can all relate 🔥 🇮🇪
Hes a great singer and has talent but this song is rubbish. Very similar to others and just por overall
@@PETERC1992 and yet your here? guilty pleasure much? hahahaha. the songs a belter end of!
Stop exaggerating
He sounds a bit like scooby doo
The 'dancing in the sun' lyric and the encouragement I get from the way he songs that line is all I need. Dermot Kennedy, remember the name. Such a hero making songs for those who need to be healed or reminded that they're gods gift
I just heard this in a restaurant and I tell you the tears flowed right down. I NEEDED TO HEAR THIS THE EXACT MOMENT IT PLAYED. I know the universe is looking out for me. Indeed, the pain of life cuts deep. I needed this never heard it before. Now. It's my song.
I came here to say this guys lyrics hit deep in your heart and soul. Wow! I never really listened or paid attention before. I came here for a different Better Days song, clicked this accidentally, listened, liked, read comments. That's when a tear dropped. Peoples stories related to this song; deep, heartbreaking, soul hurting, also happy stories, miracles and joy. Comments got me again.
Last week this time, after walking out of a stressful interview, at the dinner place, I came across this song. I almost cried in public as it hit so many nerves deep down inside me. Reflecting my life so far it really has been tough. I could go on and on, from how I was always a 'troubled kid' when I was young, and how much problems my family has, to the experiences I had in the recent years (about 4), which started with my grandmother passing away, coinciding with me graduating college and COVID, all at the same time...
Today I just got a call back, informing that I was actually offered that job that I was interviewing for. Needless to say, it's the true beginning of a new, and I believe, a much better chapter of my life. Can't help but to come back here. As my story IS changing, and better days as I know it, ARE coming. This is really a powerful song, that says precisely, about someone who has been though hardships and trying to fight a way out of it.
You got this 🌻
Was in a toxic and abusive relationship for just under 7 years. Broke free in Feb this year. Been a battle since to heal and get back what he took from me. My voice, my confidence, my pride and my empathy. I had to become cold to handle everything. This song reminds me of the light I am seeing then light that I am chasing at the end of the tunnel.
About to go through the same thing I’m terrified. I know it’s for the best. Glad your healing xxx
one day you will look back at it all and wonder how you could have loved someone so much that you stopped caring about yourself
Been suffering from a painful, deliberating condition for years.
Currently having the worst flare up for 12 years.my wife is my rock and without her god knows where I would be.
This song gives me hope for the future.
It'll get better man, stay strong 👍
This song lifts me and feels like the hard work is payin off feels like I'm goin to get what I want out of life
Every morning i listen to the morning radio show on Q-Music NL one day there was a girl on the phone who was permanently sick (lung cancer) and she explained what this song ment to her. So they decided to turn on this song every morning to give support to Eva it honestly gives me goosebumps every time i hear it. Since friday they made the song "alarm song" for 1 week so they play it a lot more every single day and i am so happy they did.
I wish all the best and support to her. And a big thanks to Q-music NL
What country is this radio channel in?
@@Josh.19 The Netherlands!
This song is giving me life!! It hits deep, like I can’t even describe it!
And omg that ‘Hey-hey, hey-hey, hey, hey-hey’ part - holy crap, that part gives me goosebumps every single time, this song is fiiiiire!!
I agree with you ! I can't get this "hey-hey, hey-hey..." out of my brain 🤯😄
Oh my God Yes!! I was just wondering if this was Aurora tho.
This is one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard. Thank you so much for this song. It is helping me daily as I fight through these dark clouds which continue to follow me around. Fortunately the dark clouds are outnumbered by the amazing friends who are on my side. Be blessed. You are in my prayers.

his voice is out of this world
Wat een prachtige lied, ik kende het niet maar het grijpt me wel aan. Rust zacht lieve Eva, je bent een voorbeeld voor ons allen! Ik bewonderde je ontzettend, wat een enorme kracht ging er altijd van je uit.
My 9 year old younger brother passed away on Sept 9th of this year. He was born with a heart condition and was currently in the hospital waiting for a heart transplant. He unexpectedly got an infection in his blood and passed away the next day. They said he has 2 weeks left but it was more like 2 days. This was his favorite song at the time and it was played at his funeral. This song makes me cry immediately after hearing the first beat.
Please pray for my Bubba, Logan.
Oh sweetheart im so sorry. You've been thru real pain. Im hoping better days come to you. You've been through so much. Praying for you and your family dearly. ❤
@@oliviayoung8040 ❤️ And I will pray for you and your family
Today I wanted to contribute something too. My grandma died at 56 7 years ago and when I realized it this Song was magic. Dermot is wonderful
My younger brother committed suicide last weekend by overdosing on something. He was found with headphones on, presumably listening to something. This is his youtube account. He made a playlist containing 6 songs that was edited the day he passed. This is one of the 6 songs. With the method he used, he was dead after about 30 minutes, probably unconscious around 12 minutes. I like to think that it was peaceful for him with his music on. I love you Myles, I'll miss you everyday for the rest of my life.
Heartbreaking for you and your family
I'm so sorry
Sorry for your loss
Sorry for your loss
HOLY NEVER THOUGHT THE COMMENTS WOULD BE DEPRESSING
cant believe its been almost year since me and my wife went to see him in Glasgow; we were fortunate to be able to do the meet and greet and get to stand with Dermot for a photo opportunity , two months later my wife was diagnosed with cancer, and this song has gotten me through many a dark days when i just couldnt see the end when my wife was at her most sickest, Thankfully she is now cancer free and i thank god for that. But we both had an amazing time at Dermots concert in Glasgow 2023. So thank you for your songs.
Bless you! 🎉
I am effing obsessed with Dermot's songs and his simple and selfless personality. From songs such as 'Lost, Rome, Boston, Shelter, After Rain and more, I keep wondering how this Irish song writer casually but beautifully summarizes my life anytime he sings😊!! I find them so much relatable and so so resonate with me.
Ever since a friend introduced one of his songs to me (Out numbered), I have followed him like religion.
Someday I will see Dermot Performs and that will be a dream come true.🙏🏻
Love from Sierra Leone 🇸🇱
Seim. Whats crazy is that I first heard him from the song of Outnumbered and then I researched about him like crazy and it took off from there. All his songs are amazing its insane.
@@BillieJean61 Dermot's musics are infectious. The moment you listen to any of his songs, you are automatically tempted to find out more about him😊.
"So what's the past for I'll need it if love don't last long you can run around infinite in my head" I sent this to a connection of mine and it stuck with me ever since 🎶❤️

Dermot is simply a beast, vocally, lyrically and musically. His soul just strikes you when you hear his voice. His music was the themetune to the most special relationship I have ever had. My beautiful husband who passed away a month ago, my family have been sending me this song, to comfort me, words that my husband would wish for me, it's just amazing how Dermot's music spoke to us together and now even separated by death speaks, music is such a powerful medium and Dermot is an absolute musical wizard. 🕊️💚💛
Fight on ppl
The music always just comes at the right time, and resonates with everyone regardless of what they're going through. That's what you call timeless music. Can't wait to see you live in September 🙌🏾
I really needed this.
I suffered from an antibiotic adverse reaction in 2015 that basically blew up my brain and nervous system. I was 21. My life has been hell for the last 7 years. I’m finally healing myself after no doctor could help me or give me answers, I was essentially gaslight and abandoned. I am my own healer. This song empowers me each day to keep moving forward and look for the light at the end of this long traumatic tunnel. Sending so so much love to anyone healing from any illness or mental/emotional trauma. You can move through this, you can get to the other side. Moment by moment, day by day…your story will change ❤
wow
🙄
One of the best songs I have ever heard. And such a stellar voice. Seems like this song was made for me. Better days are coming!
Hello, I'm Valence from US, how are you doing today?
Thank you for the love and support ❤

His music has got me through my hardest times for 9 years now, losing my stepdad, my mums cancer n 5 n half years of a mentally abusive relationship, he released this song when i was on the verge of a nervous breakdown sat in the car dying inside n he brought me back and gave me my fight again, i played the song on repeat for 2 weeks, i now have an amazing partner and we have a furr family and are planning kids of our own❤
He’s absolutely stunning. just the most gorgeous specimen of a man.
This man’s mind is a f*ing masterpiece.
