I'm so sorry. I lost my son aged 33 two and a half years ago so I know the utter heart break. We shared a love of the same music and he bought me this album. Bittersweet 💔
Mandy that is such a nice thing to say, you are beautiful inside and absolutely STUNNING outside. Unfortunately not much good happening for anyone in last couple of years. Take care ❤
Just before Christmas I met a girl in a Manchester nightclub, we talked and after the club closed we talked some more in the street. She hugged then kissed me then left. I went home and found the White Ladder CD left for me as a Christmas present from my sister. A few months earlier I'd been almost destroyed by a failed relationship but was ready to try again. I heard this song and it broke me. A year later I married that girl from the nightclub and that was fifteen years ago, we're still married. I still love this song.
..the song broke you cause it made you think of the girl you just met, or because it made u think about the lost one?its not so clear:) ..and you still love the song cause of the new hope you found that night in the pub, or for the nostalgia that sometimes still holds you back?:)
One day you suddenly realise that you are not a teenager or young anymore. Life's not the same, times have changed.. but you listen to this song once again, smile all alone, miss those days. Life goes on... The Smile always remains put... and you know why! ❤
Listening to this as I’m thinking of my friends and my love is in the city of Sumy in Ukraine. It is March 12 and bombs and missiles are falling on the city. I pray that she and everyone else stays safe and when the genocide is over we will be together again
@@globalbloodstock Peace to you and everyone in the conflict. No one deserves war. I will say this though if it wasn't for the US meddling there and equipping them and training them and pushing them into nato we would not be in this mess! I wish the US didn't meddle and Zelensky went to nato on his own he would of gotten in immediately!
Hang in there. The pain won't go away but it will get easier w time, we just learn to live with it and adapt to what's in front of us. I lost my dad 9 years ago suddenly. I am sorry for the great loss you just went through. I hope it gets easier for you in time. God bless.
@@AllDunn037 ❤️ thank you. Every day is a rollercoaster. Start out feeling strong, then like a light switch, tears and sadness. I know it's natural. Just miss my friend
Truly amazing, I hope I can get my sons mother back one day, but it seems like I need to just leave her alone and i won’t be able to experience being a happy family w/ her
It’s 2004, the time “The girl next door” came out. You’re sitting on your couch, watching the movie alone. It’s raining outside at night. After the movie is over you turn the tv off and go to bed. When you wake up it’s 2019 and you’re suddenly older, you’re still alone. Only this time this song pops up on the radio of the car you’re driving on your way to work. It’s Raining again. You’re not so alone anymore because this song will always hold a place in your heart.
LifeofNate That was beautifully saidThe only person you can trust is yourself So trust yourself to never knowingly hurt anybody and i hope somebody who will never hurt you appears in your life very soon Jenny 😎😊
Beautiful I love love, romance and joy happiness. I do believe In fairy tales princess..I feel like I'm a god princess I'm feeling like a child of God again...my lost is light .
Yep. Lost my grandma three daya ago after a long battle with dementia. It's just one of those songs that reminds me of her. Love you Nana, till we meet again xxx
This song means the world to me and makes me smile as well. My wedding song even though I'm divorced I love this tune and sing my heart out to this and sail away. I hope this song keeps you smiling xx
This song was part of my husband's funeral last week. We all loved David Gray and been to a lot of his gig's... we used to have a giggle listening to him singing this as he would add words he thought David Gray was singing..Love you Davie ❤💔❤ forever xxx
51 years old , going through domestic abuse, leaving her this week , god I've tried so hard , and David I'm here listening to you not because I'm sad and upset , because I've just realised I used to listen to you all the time before I forgot who I was before I forgot what music I loved, I'm back my friend ❤
Good luck. I walked out with nothing while he was sleeping. I had nothing,he turned our daughter against me. That was 17 years ago. I'm better now......without them. Stay strong ❤sending love x
All the best and i hope you have a peaceful rest of your life. Don't let this experience ruin any new relationships in the future, i know from experience how bad domestic abuse can effect you. I was in an abusive relationship. It wasn't physical but mental abuse and it ruined me. It made me give up on trying to find a partner and has destroyed my confidence. I'm 39 years old and it still effects me when it comes to trying to meet women. I gave up for years and just stopped looking for love and i regret it because i wasted some of the best years of my life alone.
Fella,I dont know you but reading that caused me to cry 😢,because I've just been through it. Chin up pal more tasty fish out there for us to catch,just need a bite lol
What a beautiful song. My husband passed away in March. Miss him each and every second of the day. This song eases my sorrow. What a talented singer and songwriter ❤
Because mortality is bittersweet. Everything, whether joy or heartache, is fleeting. Life is so much more beatuful because were doomed. We will never be here again. You will never be more beautiful than you are right now. (Btw, I borrowed some of that from Homer)
In the grand scheme of things,David Gray is thoroughly under-rated as both a songwriter and performer,and this song emphasizes the point. Magnificent and beautiful ❤❤❤
My dad passed away a month ago and he was a David Gray fan. Had it in my head that me and him would dance to this for a father/daughter dance if I were to ever get married 😞❤️

My best friend passed away in 2005, one of the last things we did before he got really sick was go see David play live. He had leukaemia and then one spring morning in 2005 he was gone. RIP Will you was always better than this world and I'll see you again sometime down the road. You're more to me than a friend you are my brother and I miss you more than I thought possible. Take care buddy I'd have loved for my little girls to have met their Uncle Will but they know you're still here. Love you man.

@@creationsmisfit You really will never know how much your positive comment has meant to me I look after my mum who has Alcohol induced Dementia its the hardest job and im not coping with it I have cared for her for 8 yrs at the expense of my own life Shes 80yrs old and i cant do it anymore so it has to be a carehome I havnt seen my grandchildren for a year they live off island I have also last week been diagnosed with osteo porosis after an MRI scan found 6 fractured vertebrae Theres so much i want to do with my life ,so i need to break free I wish you would follow me around whispering that i can do this You have given me the push i need Many many thanks jenny xx💖🌟
@@jennyperrio4887 you're so very welcome and I can feel that you are at a point of needing that freedom. I have an adrenal illness that has kept me bedbound for 9 years. I was a very active girl before all of this and life suddenly got very very bad very fast. I've learned so much through this journey and have finally become who I was supposed to be. I love myself through it all and know I will heal, but it's not easy and although our circumstances are different, I believe we can relate to each other. If you're able to, get the book The Magic by Rhonda Byrne. Changed my life. You got this! ❤️💗💪
This was supposed to b my wedding song Then my fiancée died in my arms of heart failure I miss u babe forever and ever. 8 years was not long enough. Can't wait to see u again. Xox
Wow that is unbelievably painful.. I am very sorry for your loss and the inevitable and painful flashbacks you likely have when listening to this utterly angelic song. My deepest condolences.
+Ryan Patrick Conway So sorry mate. This song is sad at the best of times-it must be almost impossible for you to hear. Best wishes and hoping you can find future happiness.
I'm so sorry to hear your husband passed away. It's so hard. It's better when ppl that are trying to comfort u. To not say anything because I don't think this feeling will go away. I'm sorry for your loss. It brings great sadness to my heart because I would not wish this on anyone not my worst enemy
The same for me. I knew I heard it in a movie but I didn’t remember which one but today the song came to my head again and I couldn’t stop until I could find the name. Like I didn’t know the lyrics, I had to hum the song to the google app to finally find discover the name and here I am…😅
I sat on a bus from Omagh to Dublin headphones on listening to this song. glancing across the bus I spotted a beautiful women with flowing blonde hair. I was stunned by her simplistic beauty and her amazing smile the song carried me away I was captured by the rolling green pastures as we drove along the Irish country side. 2 of my most favourite minutes in my travels from Australia. I married that girl 2 years later. Thanks David.
nestgirl, am so sorry for your your loss, my husband died after 25 years together, and although our time was cut cut short, my memories will last me a lifetime, I hope you find some smiles in your day, stay strong xx
Hope you are well tonight. I know there's not much I can say but I'm thinking of you. Heard this song earlier. "Ain't this life so sweet" I guess we have to cherish the good memories that's all we can really do. Sorry for your loss.
😭I always cry for my dearly departed Justin 💕he took his own life in 2005 aged 33. Our daughter was only 3. All these years later on, still finding the loss hard. Hearing this song reminds me of the love I felt for him and wanted so much to make him immortal. If I only knew that he'd give up on life back then. Cuts me like a blade😢miss you my Juggy❤️
There’s no way to know the pain people are in, Terina. I’m sure you are a wonderful mother and know that Justin will always be with you. Hugs from afar :)
Terina Sargeant this song reminds me of my son too. He is homeless living on Skid Row with other issues. I haven't heard from him in a year. The video that goes with this song had me sobbing because it reminds me of my son. The rainclouds and the street guy. Beautiful song.
Really, you cry? Tears happen as Elisha Cuthbert is writhing up and down in the back of that limo like a feral cat? Are these tears of arousal? Are you a cry-maxer? You're right though, beautiful song nevertheless.
Ryan Lane HAHAHAHA looool. Cry-maxer! I fucking love that. And no, it's just a sweet moment cause it's his first time and he's so awkward and it's so tender and cute. and the song just does it for me.
Our wedding song. Now 20 years happily married and 26 years together. Two children, one a medical student the other starting sixth form college. Time flies.
Love right back to you ♡ In a way us loners aren't alone at all knowing many of us share the same sentiment. If only we'd know a fellow loner walking past us on the street so we can reach out and fulfill one another.
“This year's love had better last Heaven knows it's high time I've been waiting on my own too long And when ya hold me like you do It feels so right oh now I start to forget how my heart gets torn When that hurt gets thrown Feeling like you can't go on Turning circles and time again Cut like a knife oh now If ya love me got to know for sure 'Cause it takes something more this time Than sweet, sweet lies oh now Before I open up my arms and fall Losing all control Every dream inside my soul When ya kiss me on that midnight street Sweep me off my feet Singing, "ain't this life so sweet?" This year's love had better last This year's love had better last 'Cause who's to worry if our hearts get torn When that hurt gets thrown Don't ya know this life goes on? Won't ya kiss me on that midnight street? Sweep me off my feet Singing, "ain't this life so sweet?" This year's love had better last This year's love had better last This year's love had better last This year's love had better last This year's love had better last Woah woah woah I yeah This year's love had better last”
Just an amazing love song. The video is beautiful to ❤️ Give me goosebumps every time i hear it.. The world needs more LOVE and comfort songs. Just like this one. Best therapy. Is listning to Great songs like this one ❤️🙏🏼 Thank you David Gray
My wife died 20th of December 2022, 13 months on , I’m still so badly heartbroken, without here my life is void, I’ll never have that kind love again . I try to endure, but a man can only go so far , I listen to this song at nights, and it’s not comforting but remindful of great times and love and bond I’ll never ever forget
Takes me back to Dawson's Creek. Someone I used to know would always say that Joeys sister reminded her of my older sister. I saw why but never responded....
First heard this in Crazy/Beautiful, a mostly forgotten movie but it was a pretty sweet teen romance and Kirsten Dunst was really good in it. Very unlike most teen romances.
Thinking of my brother who was my best friend. Today is his birthday. Also thinking of my spouse who took his life. To anyone struggling, keep hanging on. You are important ❤
The first time I had my heart broken this song was the only thing I could listen to, over and over again. Seems like a lifetime ago but I'll never forget it.
Reading these comments. For what it's worth, I'm so sorry for everyone's loss. Music is an amazing way to escape or reminisce in those memories you once had with your loved ones that are no longer with you.
I hope David Gray somehow knows how many lives his music has saved. Reading some of the comment, I've seen people from all walks of life talking about the pain and tragedy they've experienced. It's the most beautiful fucking things I've ever read! David's music has saved my life since I was 18 yrs old in 1998 His music still does, and boy time flies. All the mental illnesses I suffer from (Anxiety, Bipolar, ADD, Autism, Self-harm, Ect., Ect.). It's music that pushes me over the finish line to live another day. Then I read the comments and I realize, I'm not alone. People from all over the world showing that they give a shit. Just the simple act/expression of sharing their thoughts, grief/sadness, happiness/joy, and more. Thanks to anyone out there willing to have the guts to share. To anyone out there that needs to know, I give a shit! Other random people give a shit! I hope you read the comments, and choose life no matter what you're going through. Peace & Love!
I don't have a sad or a happy story. I have never loved and lost. I am still a searcher but one that has stopped searching for a long time now. This song makes me feel hopeful though. Hope that I will feel and be felt. Hopeful that someday no matter how old I am, that I will still find...
Beautiful song that reminds us all that when we think that nothing can beat our first love, we find another love just as good, and then possibly another. Life does go on, never lose hope, don't ever be too sad and know that we will always find love within ourselves and amongst others
Well she wasn't your true love. And trust me time will healed. When it does, open your heart again to love. I thought I'll never get over my first love. It took me 5 years to let her go. Yeah pathetic and waste of time right? One day I just forgot about her. Dated around with diff women. But last year I finally found my true love. Well she found me actually funny story. I never thought I'll ever love another woman again. But this woman she's so special and diff from all girls I ever known. She's the most patient, beautiful, sweet, kind and caring woman ever. She won my heart completely. I know she'll never hurt me. And I'll never hurt her. If I do I'll be the biggest fool alive. Never give up on true love. Your soul mate is out there you and her/him just haven't met yet.
The Girl Next Door was the first Rated R film that I watched that was funny and touching at the same time. And this song played a big part of the movie. Such a great song! :D
My son loved this song, he was 28 when he passed away suddenly, love and miss you Dave, my special child 💔 xxx
Hi Julie, I cannot imagine the loss of a child and that is no age. I know he is in heaven and you will all meet again. 🙏🏽
I'm so sorry. I lost my son aged 33 two and a half years ago so I know the utter heart break. We shared a love of the same music and he bought me this album. Bittersweet 💔

Dream can come true
..the song broke you cause it made you think of the girl you just met, or because it made u think about the lost one?its not so clear:)
..and you still love the song cause of the new hope you found that night in the pub, or for the nostalgia that sometimes still holds you back?:)

Wait till you get really old and you can't sleep more than an hour without needing to urinate!

This comment sucks because of how much it hit my situation on the head.
100% fact ,if your lucky life goes on , every song you listen to will bring back good or sad memories, it’s how we remember each other.
I come here everytime I'm sad, it doesn't make it better but I feel like it understands me. I wish the best to anyone listening to this right now.

Reminds me of when my mother played it she still loves him now, my son will grow to love him too
Not even sure what umbrella academy is..lol..always been a fan
One of my favourite songs of all time.. remember when and were I was when this hit radio
Adored David since I was a little girl and will continue to do so..
Yes!! Way way before the Umbrella academy or girl next door or anything else his music has been in!

All the best and i hope you have a peaceful rest of your life. Don't let this experience ruin any new relationships in the future, i know from experience how bad domestic abuse can effect you. I was in an abusive relationship. It wasn't physical but mental abuse and it ruined me. It made me give up on trying to find a partner and has destroyed my confidence. I'm 39 years old and it still effects me when it comes to trying to meet women. I gave up for years and just stopped looking for love and i regret it because i wasted some of the best years of my life alone.

I will never understand why this song gives me happiness and pain at the same time !!!

Because mortality is bittersweet. Everything, whether joy or heartache, is fleeting. Life is so much more beatuful because were doomed. We will never be here again. You will never be more beautiful than you are right now. (Btw, I borrowed some of that from Homer)

I look after my mum who has Alcohol induced Dementia its the hardest job and im not coping with it
I have cared for her for 8 yrs at the expense of my own life
Shes 80yrs old and i cant do it anymore so it has to be a carehome
I havnt seen my grandchildren for a year they live off island
I have also last week been diagnosed with osteo porosis after an MRI scan found 6 fractured vertebrae
Theres so much i want to do with my life ,so i need to break free I wish you would follow me around whispering that i can do this
You have given me the push i need Many many thanks jenny xx💖🌟
@@jennyperrio4887 you're so very welcome and I can feel that you are at a point of needing that freedom. I have an adrenal illness that has kept me bedbound for 9 years. I was a very active girl before all of this and life suddenly got very very bad very fast. I've learned so much through this journey and have finally become who I was supposed to be. I love myself through it all and know I will heal, but it's not easy and although our circumstances are different, I believe we can relate to each other. If you're able to, get the book The Magic by Rhonda Byrne. Changed my life. You got this! ❤️💗💪
A beautiful song that probably has different meanings to every listener.
A good song will take on many meanings.
A beautiful song that's very bittersweet for me. Maybe it'll change for me, one day.
it just reminds me of crazy / beautiful movie

I miss u babe forever and ever. 8 years was not long enough.
Can't wait to see u again.

Wow that is unbelievably painful.. I am very sorry for your loss and the inevitable and painful flashbacks you likely have when listening to this utterly angelic song. My deepest condolences.
+Ryan Patrick Conway sorry. my husband passed away and this was the last song I danced to him with stay strong
+Ryan Patrick Conway So sorry mate.
This song is sad at the best of times-it must be almost impossible for you to hear.
Best wishes and hoping you can find future happiness.
I'm so sorry to hear your husband passed away. It's so hard. It's better when ppl that are trying to comfort u. To not say anything because I don't think this feeling will go away. I'm sorry for your loss. It brings great sadness to my heart because I would not wish this on anyone not my worst enemy
Thank u n I mean that truly. You r all strangers that have huge hearts. Thank u
I have had this song stuck in my head for the last three days AI is getting better
The same for me. I knew I heard it in a movie but I didn’t remember which one but today the song came to my head again and I couldn’t stop until I could find the name. Like I didn’t know the lyrics, I had to hum the song to the google app to finally find discover the name and here I am…😅
The girl next door, my all time favorite film
It's so underrated isn't it
same here. I always think of that movie when I hear this song
its really underrated, and ye whenever i hear this song i end up watching the film again XD
yo watch crazy beautiful ahaha
It's a beautiful song and a beautiful movie too..... Yes I did watch the movie again.. It brings back old memories
These comments are KILLING ME! I’m sobbing in the car 😭❤️
Life is so precious!
I mean you know 😭😭😭😭
Hope your ok dear 😢❤
Y no la apreciamos lo suficiente
You and me both 😢
I don’t know you and I don’t have anything unique to say. But I know the feeling. I just want to hear what I wish I could say to you.
The juice is worth the squeeze
This song is a masterpiece
💯 % mr grey should take a bow
I sat on a bus from Omagh to Dublin headphones on listening to this song. glancing across the bus I spotted a beautiful women with flowing blonde hair.
I was stunned by her simplistic beauty and her amazing smile the song carried me away
I was captured by the rolling green pastures as we drove along the Irish country side.
2 of my most favourite minutes in my travels from Australia.
I married that girl 2 years later.
Thanks David.
Love!!
It's beautiful how easy you can find your soulmate.
Done that journey (Dublin to Donegal) for about 11 years. Married now and living in Melbourne. Tune.
Someone else tries this:
-Both on bus
Dude: Heyyyyyy
Her: AAAAA GET AWAY CREEEEEP
Wow bro that’s amazing fate if I’ve ever heard of it!!!
My husband died last year. He swept me off my feet for 25 years. Our love lasts but the separation is hell
nestgirl, am so sorry for your your loss, my husband died after 25 years together, and although our time was cut cut short, my memories will last me a lifetime, I hope you find some smiles in your day, stay strong xx
Hope you are well tonight. I know there's not much I can say but I'm thinking of you. Heard this song earlier. "Ain't this life so sweet" I guess we have to cherish the good memories that's all we can really do. Sorry for your loss.
❣
Lost my wife very very suddenly,she loved this song❣️
Thank everyone for your kind words. It’s so comforting to know others care! ♥️
Miss my son inlaw so much, he was such a fan . He was only 50 when he died in September 23.
I’m just here with a heavy heart. Things will be better for everyone ❤
They will
I hope so 😒

😭I always cry for my dearly departed Justin 💕he took his own life in 2005 aged 33. Our daughter was only 3. All these years later on, still finding the loss hard. Hearing this song reminds me of the love I felt for him and wanted so much to make him immortal. If I only knew that he'd give up on life back then. Cuts me like a blade😢miss you my Juggy❤️
There’s no way to know the pain people are in, Terina. I’m sure you are a wonderful mother and know that Justin will always be with you. Hugs from afar :)
Terina Sargeant this song reminds me of my son too. He is homeless living on Skid Row with other issues. I haven't heard from him in a year. The video that goes with this song had me sobbing because it reminds me of my son. The rainclouds and the street guy. Beautiful song.
Sending you a big warm hug from Israel.
Aw bless you I can't imagine sending you love and strength ♥️xx
Its so heartbreaking to read this 😣 like i can feel your pain, God knows youre strong. Love and hugs to you and your daughter.
When this plays in 'Girl Next Door' I always cry without fail. An achingly beautiful song.
Really, you cry? Tears happen as Elisha Cuthbert is writhing up and down in the back of that limo like a feral cat? Are these tears of arousal? Are you a cry-maxer? You're right though, beautiful song nevertheless.
Ryan Lane
HAHAHAHA looool. Cry-maxer! I fucking love that. And no, it's just a sweet moment cause it's his first time and he's so awkward and it's so tender and cute. and the song just does it for me.
@@colourmeryan dude you’re on some ecstasy no doubt with this comment. 7 years ago lol.

Anyone else ‘quarantined ‘ up and listening to this? I don’t know if it was a good idea to listen to David Gray🙄
Love to you guys ❤️
Chin up ❤️
I always listen to david gray.
Ive loved his music since i was maybe 15ish
Same. I love this movie. I was in love with a girl who was kind of like the girl in the movie. 'Crazy beautiful '
A great time for refliction.
Hey there
Fuck off
This is one of those songs that touched your soul. You live your life and one day it will reappear in your thoughts like a long lost friend.

David Gray brought me here. Not a film, TV show or anything else. Just my love for this amazing song.
“This year's love had better last
Heaven knows it's high time
I've been waiting on my own too long
And when ya hold me like you do
It feels so right oh now
I start to forget how my heart gets torn
When that hurt gets thrown
Feeling like you can't go on
Turning circles and time again
Cut like a knife oh now
If ya love me got to know for sure
'Cause it takes something more this time
Than sweet, sweet lies oh now
Before I open up my arms and fall
Losing all control
Every dream inside my soul
When ya kiss me on that midnight street
Sweep me off my feet
Singing, "ain't this life so sweet?"
This year's love had better last
This year's love had better last
'Cause who's to worry if our hearts get torn
When that hurt gets thrown
Don't ya know this life goes on?
Won't ya kiss me on that midnight street?
Sweep me off my feet
Singing, "ain't this life so sweet?"
This year's love had better last
This year's love had better last
This year's love had better last
This year's love had better last
This year's love had better last
Woah woah woah I yeah
This year's love had better last”
Just an amazing love song. The video is beautiful to ❤️
Give me goosebumps every time i hear it.. The world needs more LOVE and comfort songs. Just like this one. Best therapy. Is listning to Great songs like this one
❤️🙏🏼 Thank you David Gray
Thanks so much for the lyrics.I came across this by accident and I'd forgotten how much I loved this album;
Thanks.
Damn all these years later this song still can make a grown man nearly cry
Keyword nearly
My wife died 20th of December 2022, 13 months on , I’m still so badly heartbroken, without here my life is void, I’ll never have that kind love again . I try to endure, but a man can only go so far , I listen to this song at nights, and it’s not comforting but remindful of great times and love and bond I’ll never ever forget
Doesn't this song take you to that special place....
Jerry Maldonado where exactly?🤔
I wish I understood this song ten years ago
@@missunderstood8445 A sad place, mostly :( Great song though.
Takes me back to Dawson's Creek. Someone I used to know would always say that Joeys sister reminded her of my older sister. I saw why but never responded....
bj myers Sorry to hear, maybe you should listen to happier song🙂
No matter how much time passes there are some songs that you always come back too and still think wow,this is one of them.
First heard this in Crazy/Beautiful, a mostly forgotten movie but it was a pretty sweet teen romance and Kirsten Dunst was really good in it. Very unlike most teen romances.
Beautiful film 😍
Same here. Such a shame they don't do movies like that anymore..
Agreed... My all time fav movie... Crazi/beautiful❤️
I'm 35 and own it, it's one of my favorites.. the girl next door its played also, one of my favs!!
I wish I could go back to how easy life was when I first heard this song ❤
Danielle was the first character I fell in love with. So nostalgic.
Me as well... She's still in my mind. She's just so perfect.
I'm old, so this song reminds me of the movie "girl next door"
Same to me, great movie
Same im favourite movie the girl next door
Reminds me of the movie Crazy Beautiful 2001
Lol when they're on the limousine
Same
*The Umbrella Academy* though David Gray has been a favorite since '98.
Eudora died. Poor diego
Thinking of my brother who was my best friend. Today is his birthday. Also thinking of my spouse who took his life. To anyone struggling, keep hanging on. You are important ❤
January 2019 still love this song.😘🥰
Watching "Girl Next Door" right now, and the scene with this song came up and reminded me of it.
Yes indeed,this tune still rocks,actually this whole album did!
Love it so much from girl next door
LilianO me too...me too.👍🏻
The Umbrella Academy paid trib too :D
the girl next door
Hahaha
yessss
ow you came hear to because of the girl next door
oww you're an interloper in what you are not interested
yess
i had my heart broken to this song many many years ago... the wounds healed but the scars are glaringly prominent.
weird, ditto
Owen RR :-)
Feel your pain

Girl next door what a gem bought me here
The first time I had my heart broken this song was the only thing I could listen to, over and over again. Seems like a lifetime ago but I'll never forget it.
+Chany Philly It will always be with you in some way. . . .
Chany Philly I was the same but with stay by Rihanna, totally understand girl
"The girl next door" has brought me here. Thank you, nice song :)
U still alive?
Crazy/beautiful
i ❤ that movie
Wimbledon (2004) again with Kirsten Dunst.
Favorite Movie!! ❤❤
Love this song too !

THANK YOU! Everyone is all about girl next door with this song and I’m like nah crazy/beautiful
This song makes me cry every time I listen. Masterpiece. 2024 ❤❤❤
The Girl Next Door brought me hear, but this song is very beautiful. Used it in my wedding.

A lot of people was you fucking moron.
Being a David gray fan brought me here....nothing more nothing less
Yay, tired of ppl here cuz of some movie
Yep, me too.
Saw him a few weeks ago in his home town
Nostalgia, this song will live forever
Reading these comments. For what it's worth, I'm so sorry for everyone's loss. Music is an amazing way to escape or reminisce in those memories you once had with your loved ones that are no longer with you.
Crazy Beautiful movie with Kirsten Dunst and Jay Hernandez had me looking for this song.
Love it! Enjoyed the movie too. 🥰
Itt is köszönök mindent Leiner Laurának... azt a sok könyvet, hogy megszerettette velem az olvasást, és az olyan király számokat mint ez 😊😢😃
This one fell out of the sky didn’t it? I can imagine him tinkering around and the notes just fell together & that moment you know it’s meant to be.
This is so incredibly beautiful. I miss music like this.. long live the 90s.
The Girl Next Door. 2004, wow! time flies fast.
Jessie Mo-oy Yeah man. Once you don't notice it's already 2016
+DeadPhamtonRemix 1 and your french says it all.
Jessie Mo-oy Jesus Christ that movie is that old?? Fuck...
Can't believe it's been 14 yrs.was a crazy and good movie. This song will always remind me of that movie and that period in my life
Jessie Mo-oy yep time flies and i watched it again... Same feeling
I hope David Gray somehow knows how many lives his music has saved. Reading some of the comment, I've seen people from all walks of life talking about the pain and tragedy they've experienced. It's the most beautiful fucking things I've ever read! David's music has saved my life since I was 18 yrs old in 1998 His music still does, and boy time flies. All the mental illnesses I suffer from (Anxiety, Bipolar, ADD, Autism, Self-harm, Ect., Ect.). It's music that pushes me over the finish line to live another day. Then I read the comments and I realize, I'm not alone. People from all over the world showing that they give a shit. Just the simple act/expression of sharing their thoughts, grief/sadness, happiness/joy, and more. Thanks to anyone out there willing to have the guts to share. To anyone out there that needs to know, I give a shit! Other random people give a shit! I hope you read the comments, and choose life no matter what you're going through. Peace & Love!
I don't have a sad or a happy story. I have never loved and lost. I am still a searcher but one that has stopped searching for a long time now. This song makes me feel hopeful though. Hope that I will feel and be felt. Hopeful that someday no matter how old I am, that I will still find...
Omg..talking about me..x
A touching of souls......what we all want...❤
Don't give up looking it will come 😊
Always..Crazy/Beautiful🖤
Yes! 😍
Tristian Fasbender 👏🏼 always
Haven't listened to this song in years, hopefully it brings love and positive memories to all, love from ireland 🇮🇪
Like your comment love from Alison 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
Beautiful song that reminds us all that when we think that nothing can beat our first love, we find another love just as good, and then possibly another. Life does go on, never lose hope, don't ever be too sad and know that we will always find love within ourselves and amongst others
I agree with your statement 💯 true
you actually find better than good. when you're ready to love again ofc. no comparison to the old and new love.
NO. My first love was in 2012. And it ended in 2013. But I still love her and nothin' can't stop it.
Well she wasn't your true love. And trust me time will healed. When it does, open your heart again to love. I thought I'll never get over my first love. It took me 5 years to let her go. Yeah pathetic and waste of time right? One day I just forgot about her. Dated around with diff women. But last year I finally found my true love. Well she found me actually funny story. I never thought I'll ever love another woman again. But this woman she's so special and diff from all girls I ever known. She's the most patient, beautiful, sweet, kind and caring woman ever. She won my heart completely. I know she'll never hurt me. And I'll never hurt her. If I do I'll be the biggest fool alive. Never give up on true love. Your soul mate is out there you and her/him just haven't met yet.
Belinda Rosemond do we......some just
One of those songs you can listen to when your happy or sad and still enjoy it equally as much.
After 4 years,,,I'm back to this song again....
The Girl Next Door was the first Rated R film that I watched that was funny and touching at the same time. And this song played a big part of the movie. Such a great song! :D
Kell egy Nagy Márk!!!❤❤❤
One of the best love songs ever written.
For real
This song is so powerful.
The Girl Next Door brought me here. I really love this song. Might be in my wedding.
