    I've had a stepdad since I was 7 years old( age 21 now). My brother and I up to that point had never had a father figure in our lives. We didn't need one. So we never showed him any kind of respect or affection. He was never mean to us but he had his ways of disciplining us, which made us resent him even more. We never genuinely thanked him or showed any real manners towards him, always told him things like "why don't you just leave", "we don't want you here", "you'll never be our dad". Always trying to make him feel unwelcome in his own home basically until I moved out at 18. After moving out I stopped being that way and started treating him as a member of the family, but never apologizing. The line "I never really thanked you for all of the light you brought into my mother's eyes" really struck a cord with me. It made think about how good of a man he was for making my mother so happy, as well as despite my brother and I, providing and caring for us unconditionally. This year was the first year I got him a card and gift for Father's day, I told him I loved him and thanked him for being there when no one else was. I wasn't expecting it, but he hugged me and told me thank you. I think he knew how much I meant it. It took a huge weight off my shoulders and I look at him now not as a stranger or the guy my mom's married to, but as my dad. I love you

      You are an amazing person to realize that so young! So glad you got the chance to tell him. Your story with this song would make a brilliant Guinness ad. :) I don't think that would be tacky, cheapening your story at all - the Guinness ads are art, everyone loves them, think of the Michael Fassbender one.

    a few days after my husband passed away in 2014, i went to a deserted hilltop in the Scottish Borders and screamed out his name. it was only after i did that, and felt the release of something primal inside of me, that i noticed black feathers lay strewn on the ground around me. other times black feathers have found their way in front of me and where i walk- along a street or an area where no other feathers can be found..... thank you for the song......

    As a 27-year-old man who has never lost anyone this close to them in my life, from hearing this song at 5.10am for the first time, until 6:50am when I had to take my headphones off at work, I've listened to this on repeat, crying. I've either never heard a tribute to someone that is this beautiful, or I'm just emotional for lack of sleep. Either way, thank you, Bear's Den. I love this ❤

    This. This is the songwriting that made me fall in love with Bear's Den and the writing style of Davie. So many writers are creating material that's intended to apply to the listener's life, which gains them popularity since more people can relate, but Davie is just so specific and personal. He's a book I can't put down; I want to know his specific story. Never change, Davie.

    This is so beautiful. I can identify fully with you, I'm so sorry for your loss. I too lost my beautiful black crow. I was 16. I know he still walks by my side every day. I feel so sad because he's my brothers Dad and my brother was only 6 when we lost him, sadly my brother doesn't remember him fully, the beautiful thing is my brother has his Dads laugh. I feel it in my heart every time he laughs. It's wonderful. 💗
    This is for you Vic..(Dad)...our beautiful black crow. 💫💫💗💗💗

    I listened to this song the day it came out, I’m a huge fan. My grandfather passed away a month or so ago and I’ve avoided this song like the plague bc i knew how it would make me feel. My tactic is to avoid things unpleasant and pretend they aren’t real. If i don’t acknowledge it, it didn’t happen. And now here i am, sobbing like i knew i would be. He formed so much of my life, and i can never thank him enough. I love you gramps, and thank you bears den for these bitter sweet tears.

Moving doesn't begin to describe it and the video? Devastating in the best possible way. HUGE FAN from the first listen - thank you so much for the gift of your music. It is indeed perched deep in my soul and won't let go.

    @sammisaliken7265 4 года назад +2

    I think a lot of my dogs when listening to this. He used to chase magpies, never catching or hurting them, just loving to chase. The day we had to have him put down, I was waiting in the truck after saying my goodbyes and I looked behind me and there was a magpie sitting on the back of the truck. Ever since that day whenever I see a magpie I just say a quiet hello, imagining it’s him just checking in on me. We lost his brother a few years after and I now do the same with him. Thank you for your beautiful music, so full of stories and love. ❤️

    It's as though this wonderful song was written for me. There is a phenomenal amount of relatability with the lyrics: the year '95; the cigarettes; the best friend and father he became to me; the joy he brought to my mother; the drink, and ensuing alcoholism he would die from (at 46, 2011); the grief I have never been able to properly process or even begin understand; the love, rage, anger and intensity of emotion I feel when I remember him (especially when listening to this incredibly poetic song) and the piercing pain reality brings when I realize we'll never meet again. R.I.P John. Thank you for being there for a scared sh*tless kid when a father wasn't. You're always in my heart.

    I 'found' Bear's Den, when my wife was watching an episode of Holby City a couple of months back. Sahara, was the track being used on the aforementioned programme. I've been hooked since then. Thank god for itunes. One of my best mates, Jim, passed away last year, the guy was like a second Father to me, and although I don't think my memories of him will fade, this track serves as a touching reminder. Brilliantly written song, with poignant lyrics.
    Thank you Bear's Den. Great musicianship as always.
    Merry Christmas Jim, wherever you are Mate.

    Def. my fave BD song of all time! Makes me cry (good tears), every time I listen to it!! ❤
    "I think of you much more than I
    Would like to admit that I
    Do before strangers
    But there you are
    Whistling through the trees again
    Rustling through the leaves my friend
    A feather on my pillow
    Lets me know that you're near
    I remember the night that you arrived
    December maybe, '95
    Your hair and your breath smelled
    Of John Player Specials
    A stranger who I learned to love
    A friend when really no one was
    My Daedalus, my wings to fly
    Why'd you leave me behind?
    My beautiful crow
    And all those black feathers
    Perched deep in my soul
    Won't let me let you go
    I never really thanked you for
    All of the light you brought
    Into my mother's eyes
    So many others tried
    Her sadness since the day you left
    She will not get out of bed
    She stares out the window
    Smokes a black pack of JP's
    I was out on St Paul's
    When I heard about your fall
    Walking with Caroline
    She bums smokes from time to time
    I walked home alone that night
    I could feel you when I closed my eyes
    I looked up into the night
    And watched black feathers fall from the sky
    I think of you much more than I'm allowed to admit
    But I do
    I still do
    My beautiful crow
    And all those black feathers
    Perched deep in my soul
    Won't let me let you go
    I have tried to push you down
    I have tried to cut you out
    You're rattling your cage
    I'm rattling my cage
    I have tried to drown you out
    Drink till I don't hear the sound
    The song's still the same
    The song's still the same
    My beautiful crow
    And all those black feathers
    Perched deep in my soul
    Won't let me let you go"

    Within the first two versus, I knew what this song is about. Not ever hearing this song or the artists voice before, the tears welled up and fell voluntarily unconditionally over my face for my son and the dear friend that he lost. My son was 19 when she passed less than 2 years ago. There isn't a day that passes without a moment of reflection for her kindness. This song wraps my memories in comfort and love for them both. Thank you for sharing such beautifully assembled words and thoughts.

    I sent this song to my stepdad. I thanked him for all he did for me, my little brother, and how he helped my dad. Reading all of these comments of people sharing their stories was to me even better than the video. Hearing people talk about how this song affected them, their life experiences with grief and pain. This is what real music is all about. It brings us together. IT binds us, great music is about the human experience. I just recently found you guys but I can tell you have already made your way into my heart with your incredible and emotional music.

    I think we can all relate to loss like this in some way. Thanks for sharing such a intimate pain with the world. Keep on making amazing music
