With the new album, Sonder, Dermot Kennedy admits he’s never related to a word more. Sonder, “the realization that each random passerby is living a life as vivid and complex as your own,” encapsulates universal themes of love, loss & hope, with the platinum-selling artist evolving into an even more expressive and powerful storyteller
LYRICS
How it must feel to be a bird
Roaming lonely over sea air
How it must feel to be a bird
London, Paris underneath
I'll wait on my own here
And I couldn't tell you enough that I'm sorry
And no, you couldn't tell me enough that you loved me
She's bringing the moon and stars to me
Damn permanent reverie
And even though this life, this love is brief
I've got some people who carry me
Wasn't it love as soon as we knew each other properly?
Living 'bout half right, until a certain person got to me
Nothing is secret, everything's sacred, How it ought to be
Under the moonlight on a clear night, on rooftops is where I want to be
Sometimes I'm like a child, It's something I can't release
Dreams of her coming home, sweet home
I'm telling you home's so sweet
Said you reminded me of the summer times, and I still mean that
In a full room I'm the only one she's smiling at
So wouldn't you let me know if you were thinking less of me?
That's what she asked me what was promised what we both agreed
But truthfully if you ever go, you'll drop me straight to Hell's 7th circle
And I was talking with you earlier
We were open and vulnerable, it was wonderful
I, I used to dream that you would talk to me
I used to dream that you would talk to me
And I couldn't tell you enough that I'm sorry
And no, you couldn't tell me enough that you loved me
She's bringing the moon and stars to me
Damn permanent reverie
And even though this life, this love is brief
I've got some people who carry me
You know that feeling when you think your heart is gonna come right out through your shirt?
I get it a couple times a year but I've been getting it more often with her
Now when I'm face to face with death I'll grab his throat
And ask him, "how does it hurt?"
Up in those golden moments growing old too quickly
Was he thinking of her?
But she's bringing the moon and the stars to me
Damn permanent reverie
And even though this life, this love is brief
I've got some people who carry me
This song makes me long for a place I've never been and a person I've never met, if that makes any sense.
it does.
Lisa Nicole u mean it makes u miss people you dont know and memories u never had ?
@@davidfeller1855 Yes. I want to feel the way he describes feeling in this song. I don't think I've ever felt that way about somebody or had somebody feel that strongly about me. What a connection. It's a beautiful song.
Absolutely.
There is even a word for this - fernweh (german) which is a feeling homesick for a place you have never been to
Dermot Kennedy does not sing song's, he delivers stories packed with emotions, unbelievable to witness and feel, don't ever change DK
You absolutely nailed it there with what you said... couldn't agree more. This man touches your soul x
100% 😍
YES 🤯🤯🤯
Donkey Kong!!??!?!
God please don't change. Songs that hit you at your core!!! ❤️❤️❤️
I didnt know what goosebumps were until this lad came along jesus
You've never been cold?
go listen to his colors performance, its phenominal. Its what got me hooked.
Haha
I didn't know what goosebumps were until this lad came along Jesus
Yes becky
This is music! Nothing gives me goosebumps and chills like Dermot’s voice. We are so lucky to have this guy in music today. Go see him before he gets too big, because it’s happening right now! Shhh! He’s our little secret!
Nothing prepared me for how good he is live. One of, if not THE best I have ever seen, astonishing.
My wife and I keep saying this. He's about to blow up! We were suppose to see him in Detroit last summer @mopop but we had to cancel. Would have loved to see him at a small venue in his beginnings.
@@meangreenhatch1 I know! He gets around 5 million monthly views on Spotify. His concerts are allways fully booked.
I was lucky enough to find him at the of 2017. I got tickets for Oslo in January 2018. The venue held no more than 250 people in an old church-esque building. The setting was perfect. His voice is so raw and I worried mike dean would over produce. Thankfully he highlighted the abilities Dermot seems to have established from his busking days. Diamonds take the longest to form, hopefully nothing is rushed from him.
@@danbax76 Agreed, one of the few artists I've seen who sounds exactly the same live as he does here. Even better in a small venue because his voice carries through the whole place.
from an instagram live: "this is a song i wrote a long time ago and it's kind of about if there's a place or even somebody or somewhere you'd wanna be if you were having a really bad day or if you just weren't feeling so good. i know for me it's a place off the west of Ireland that i actually haven't been to in too long but yeah, i feel like everybody's got one. so this song is called For Island Fires and Family."
Wonder which Island he's talking about? One of the Aran Islands?
@@KevinBrady92 ireland
@@KevinBrady92 the Island he's on is called Inis Mhor, it's one of the Aran Islands
Your song reminds me who I am daily, protecting my heart, my loves, my life!!! 💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚
This is poetry, a journey, a vision. This is life. What a breath of fresh air this is. He makes art with his voice, painting a picture with his words. Beautiful.
So many pass each other on the street and don't realise we all have these feelings. These hopes. These memories. We are all deep wells.

You know that feelin' when you think your
heart is gonna come right out through your shirt?
Get it a couple times a year....
especially when listen to Dermot Kennedy
I started to get it alot this year, but never knew what it was, this song defined it, so beautiful, glad I came across this 😊
Does the song also mean that she was drowned in the sea by some one ? Or did she jump off the cliffs in the sea ??
I remember passing this guy busking on Grafton Street going to and from work all the time. Id now pay to watch him in concert. Fair play to him, hes done well. What a beautiful song.
Hi beautiful ❤️
Honestly the best part - "when I come face to face with death, I'll grab his throat and ask him how does it hurt"
Hits you in the feels man
“Up in those golden moments growing old too quickly, was he thinking of her”
Every time
It's so good that I got a tattoo symbolizing the lyrics. ❤
Wow. I felt my spirit fly and crash to earth at the same time. Made me think of loves lost and hearts i have broken and the love i live now.
Gave me a sense of remorse and hope.
Hard to put into words.
Well done brother...well done.
His voice touches deepest place in my heart
His music and voice touches my soul!! No one person nor thing has ever nor probably ever will! Idk how but it's the facts!!
Always listened to the acoustic version, but my goodness this was an experience. Sensational talent.
But she's bringing the moon and stars to me... Damn permanent reverie...
when this boy sings…I’m as close to heaven as I’ll ever be in my mortal flesh…
❤April 2024…
Saw him perform over the weekend and DAMN!! Such a passionate and absolutely amazing show.
I was bummed this song wasn't on the list, but he delivered 2 hours of amazingness 🙏🙏
Home is definitely where the heart is 😊
Everytime I listen to him I miss the good Irish live music in pubs. Good friends, a pint of good Guinness and the most amusing voices. Ireland you don't have equals when it comes to live music. But yet you always had this pinch of sadness, even in the most entertaining songs. There was always some sort of sadness hidden between words.
This is the sound of autumn, cozy blankets, forest walks surrounded by the beauty of nature, the vibrant orange colors of the falling leaves, and the crunchy sound when you walk through piles of them on the ground, cozy nights in with the sound of rain on the windows, the smell of freshly baked bread, the feeling of a dog lying beside you, candlelights and a movie with your loved ones, and lastly,it's the sound of home ❤🍁
I love how he posts the lyrics.
This song is what Ireland feels like for me. Somewhere inside longing and gratitude.
“Even tho this life this love is brief I got some people that carry me”
Dermot, this song fills my heart with happiness and sadness at the same time, it makes me think of my fiance who passed away, all the things we said and didn't say. It also makes me think of all those who helped me through that loss. I miss him terribly
I’m so sorry for your loss. 😞♥️
I went to see Dermot last night in Manchester and was ashamed to see so many people not listening, drunk, filming on their phones. We clearly don't deserve what he's delivering
Oh Ireland!!! Why do you have to be so beautiful?
Just discovered this and boy I’m so glad I did. In literal tears
It's crazy how songs like this makes you feel like talking to your soul
I really want you to gain worldwide fame, because you absolutely deserve it, but for now I'll just enjoy how you are my little secret sanctuary. Sublime lyrics, beautiful melodies and such soulfull performances! Keep it up Dermot!
Gina Giakoumi oh my god yes!
Worldwide fame, noo!
It's only a matter of time before he's exposed to the world....and rightly so, the guy is flawless
@@macgilli2585 Couldn't agree more! This kind of talent is very rare these days. He is indeed flawless and I hope he gets the recognition he deserves.
He just visited Australia where he played at Falls Festival and 4 sold out side shows. I'd say he's getting there.
P.S. He was amazing live.
Jesus Dermo you’ve gone on to be the most amazing youngster I’ve ever met !! Told you had it in you ♥️♥️♥️
Protect what is yours, what is yours? ❤
i can feel him singing from the deepest of his heart
I think of innocent and wild summers in Chicago w my first love. ❤ driving on the beaches, cops chasing, and us laughing to tears… over 30 yrs ago we still laugh about it. The ppl that shape/impact us no matter how brief the love stays with us our whole lives.
Hello beautiful 👋 can we chat if you don't Mind. I've had difficult times with relationship
Most beautiful voice i have ever herd❤
Natural, primal, thriving environment.
This man is a modern poet! His music is insane and his lyrics are so moving. I’m so glad I’m stumbled across his music 2 years ago ❤️
Second verse is perfection
"Nothing is sceret,
Everythin's sacred,
How it ought to be."
Damn! Permanent Proclivity!
This guy is a genius! Totally in love with his words!
Ireland has away withh porety and words
Same
He is very good with language❤
'and I couldn't tell you enough that i'm sorry.' damn. All the words in this song are gorgeous, it sounds like poetry.
“I used to dream that you would talk to me”
Sebas Knieriem 😍
That one hits me so hard evertime..
Same here
My life in one sentence
Sebas Knieriem So many emotions in those lyrics
The very best songs make you feel they’re written for you only , this is one of them .
I feel so lucky to be alive in the same century as you. For centuries past this one, people will listen to you as one of the greats. Your connection to vocals and lyrics is breathtaking and your music is timeless. You're incredible Dermot.
He was great and still is . Forgiveness is the best thing as long as time doesn't repeat it self ✨️ 😌 🙏
So well said. It's amazing how well this entire albums still holds up and will continue to do so.
I'm crying. It's so beautiful
I'll keep saying it: One of the best songs ever created, hands down, no question about it
I agree!
i used to love this song anyway...but i used to hear it as a love song. my father passed away last week, and now him speaking through your beautiful words & voice. thank you so much for being a healer.
the "hell, the seventh circle" part man its too good
Started with Power over me. Couple of days later ... Outnumbered and Lost. Now, Young and free. Love everything. Thank you !
My 2019 resolution was to stop crying at work but there we go
His music is deep just makes me you think future and past
oh my. same.
When you read a comment that is your exact moment in time. 😭
Girl don't hold back your tears. It'll make you sick, like actually sick.

Can't stress how much I'm in love with DERMOT KENNEDY 😭
This is the best one. Touch my soul, my heart, my everything.
Cinematography here is absolutely next level. Amazing.
“And when I’m face to face with death I’ll grab his throat and ask him how does it hurt” god what a beautiful line
Had the pleasure of seeing him at the Fillmore in San Francisco in November. If you ever get a chance to see this man perform live please don't pass it up. It was hands down one of the most amazing and intimate concerts I've been to.
Lucky, I can't wait for the chance, just discovered him a couple of months ago. THANK GOD.
this song is giving me yet another heartache, i loveeeee
I came across you on this very comment section of George strait.his music have saved so many people from the trauma and difficult times in their lives and not just that he is a great singer but also an influential man who sing from the heart ❤
My father was a great fan of George strait...he bought so many tickets and have been on several concerts.
George strait is a man with so much honor 🎖 🥇 I don't often listen to country songs but I love this very one.
Are you from the United States?

“We we’re open and vulnerable, it’s was wonderful” oh man the feels! His voice, the lyrics, perfect ❤️
Hello beautiful 👋 can we chat if you don't Mind. I've had difficult times with relationship
Listening to his songs, feels like time standing still.
Here in 2021 and I still sit in complete silence absorbing how wonderful this man’s voice is. INCREDIBLE
One of the all time best
A great Artist, with extraordinary Personality and Voice. He will be the next Grammy Awards Winner.
Absolutely take nothing away from billie eilish but she is no were near this man level when it comes to musical talent and took away 5 Grammys so something has gotta give 👍
Pure nostalgia and longing feels
His songs are stories

Anybody else listen to this everyday?
#CONFESSiON__iDO..!!

Me, still.
Bro your voice and lyrics make me cry.
Hope to see your new songs...
Awesome mate, nothing more cinematic than our Irish coastline and your music!! The shot you used for thumbnail made me pause the video, epic. Glad to have seen you in a small venue in Edinburgh last year as it wont be long before you're only doing stadiums!
Rosco Creative the liquid room Edinburgh?
Yea mate, have a few shots from it on my Instagram @@borgin2174
I flew up for that gig, do you remember someone shouting “show us your socks dermo!”😂
Fair to say I had a few that day 😂
Rosco creative what a beautiful place you live in. And so lucky to have seen him in person, he has so much talent to show the world.
Hozier and Dermot. I’m totally happy with their voices in my head and in my heart
Music that reminds you of a story or a beautiful poem is something different man
This is what a true music artist is. Beautiful voice, beautiful lyrics, beautiful story. With all the cardi b and Halsey going around it’s nice to find a hidden gem like this.
Hello beautiful 👋 can we chat if you don't Mind. I've had difficult times with relationship 🙏
Please, don´t ever change, Dermot. World needs more artists like you. Bless u.
Literally i cant pic my favorite verse in any of his songs.
Certainly has the most beautiful voice.
“So wouldn’t you let me know if you were thinking less of me” 💔😭
“I’ve got some people who carry me” yes youuuuuu Dermot 😭
His song is embedded into my soul
WHAT A BEAUTIFUL SONG
LIMITED WORDS BUT SO
POWERFUL AND THEY MADE
ME FEEL HIM. MAY GOD
CONTINUE TO BLESS THAT
YOU AND THE GIFT THAT
HE GAVE TO YOU.
goosebumps all around.... you legend
Your voice sounds like an echo all over this beautiful isle of Ireland. From North to the South over the rough cliffs into the deep blue sea, at dawn when the sun arise till sunset settle in.. Such an amazing sound, makes me shivering... Wowww...
I love this song. I like the “ouuuu” “ouuuUUUU” “ouuuweeaahhh” in the very beginning of the song.
This isn't the most popular song of Dermot but I definitely love it. It gives me the peace that no other songs has ever done.
"I got some people who will carry me"
You ever hear a musician and their music makes you wish you could meet them to say thank you ? In regards to this song thank you man for getting me through a time when I questioned my very being. "And even though this life, this love is brief
I've got some people who carry me " your music is carrying many of us.
''I used to dream that you would talk to me''. I remember that.
This is the most beautiful songs I've ever heard in my life. And that's great, considering that I've been alive for a 1000 years!
Great song and great video, I love this country so much
I love fast paced music, but this song makes you feel so much. Dermot has to be my favorite artist, hope he continues to make songs that feel the same, his music is so powerful.
My God how you blessed this man with his words/lyrics...musicality & melody... His delivery of his songs... The beauty in his videos... Just wow & awe.... Keep up the amazingly wonderful work.
Secrets are sacred, guess y'all aren't alone anymore wolves 🌹
Another rare jewel found in Ireland.
No...no...not real!!! This feeling I just had for a few minutes...this just became my fav song of my life!!! Unreal!!!!!!!!! No more words...I could go on for about 5 books about what I felt listening to this song !!!!!!!
When I first heard it I felt the same even now after listening for the millionth time
A masterpiece, that's all I have to say.
A couple of months back, I was talking with someone I really want to be with... describing the kind of music I like. He told me to go listen to this song. Even if nothing ever comes of it, it’s one of my favorite moments. And now it has a video. Thank you. 💕
Maggie Mae excuse me...can I have an update? 🙃
Witnessing a legend in the making
“And even though this life, this love is brief I’ve got some people who carry me”
This is so true for me as I think of my friends and family who have always been there for me.
Ok Dermot’s the boss, that’s nothing we didn’t already know.. but what about how beautiful our little island is! 💚🇮🇪
