Thank you for this song. My late husband sent it to me about 7 months before he died...the first and last song he ever sent to me, saying it made him think of me. It has brought me great comfort and felt like a message of love every time I listen to this song. Very grateful.
So, here I am, a 64-year-old former music 'insider', driving down a main thoroughfare in Des Moines, Iowa, and this beautiful song comes out of my truck speakers. I have never heard this song until today {11-29-2022}. I pulled over to the shoulder. I didn't want this song to end. WOW! God bless you ladies!! Your harmonies give me chills!
I have adopted this song as my mantra to beat my cancer this song makes feel how lucky I am to be here with the ones I love and how life is a gift for all of us if only we search for the good in it and stay positive and just believe
This was played at my mum's funeral by my niece with a montage of pictures with her memories of her grandmother. Mum's life had much faith and many moments of happiness and blessings but also darkness of family, things out of her control and not great health. Her faith gave her a silver lining that passed onto me and many who loved her. Just want to say thankyou to this beautiful song introduced to us in Australia in 2014 at my mother's funeral. Still find strength in it today. June 2024.🙏😊❤️
So beautiful. ❤ You gave me the idea: this is to be played at my funeral, too. It simply fits. Together wirh "Hurt" by J.Cash and "Don't look back in anger" by Oasis. It is bit a pity that I didn't find sth in our mother tongue German.
me too. it was actually so random. I was walking home when I heard violin strings. I kept standing still and recorded what I heard so that the next time I connect to the internet I will activate music recognition and have the name and here I am! Thanks shazam!
My Dads favorite phrase was always “keep on keepin on!” He made his transition this past Wednesday. The next day my brother woke up and this song was playing on the radio. My siblings and I had never heard it before!❤🙏❤️
Great song, and as a multi-linguist, I can’t stress enough how impressive it is that not only is their English perfect, but they absolutely nail a southern US accent!
I didnt know my father very well for most of my life. But he reconnected with me about 6 years ago. We came to find we were very similar in our hobbies, mannerisms and most importantly music. I introduced him to First Aid Kit and it was the first music I introduced him to that he just loved. He was killed in a head on collision on his motorcycle with his girlfriend 3 years ago this day. I chose this song at his funeral because it was how he lived his life. After the funeral I bought the album on LP, I haven't ever played it. I come here and listen to this song every year. I smile and I cry. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart Klara and Johanna.
Hi Ryan! I'm so sorry you lost your father. But I'm glad for the both of you that you got to know each other and could share a powerful thing like music. It's amazing that you lost contact for so many years but when reconnecting the bond was strong. I wish you all good things in life ...
Beautiful. I'm so glad you were able to reconnect and share the love of music. Reminds me of my dad-- MUSIC was one of the most important parts of our relationship. After he died, I started a playlist of music I wish I could share with him.
Last night I was enchanted by this song when I was watching the tv, a commercial by Renault. It was just 30 seconds! I had to search for it immediately and I discovered First Aid Kit. For me, the discovery of the year! Wonderful voices and instruments, great songs, pure atmospheres... I´ve fallen in love with them. Emmylou, The Lion´s Roar... They are treasures. We need more of this and less shit in our European theatres and arenas... Saludos desde España.
You have to remember that there aren't a billion people on Earth who are original, one of ones, you know, people who listen to music because it is real and speaks to them; most people are followers, automatons, who listen to what the media is hyping up, who listen to what they perceive makes them look cool to whomever is watching them. Think about it, no offense to the Migos, but between them and First Aid Kit, who makes music for the art and the love, and who is more famous? First Aid Kit makes music that will be here for a millennia, and the Migos? they make organised noise that doesn't even last half a decade before people move on the new and exciting trap artist. I'll be listening to First Aid Kit with my great-grandchildren in 60 years, because they make music.
Thank you for everything, First Aid Kit, when I gave up on my life and there was no one around me, there were actually you! When o decided to travel the world and eventually started doing it, YOU WERE THERE! ALWAYS!
I am in a dark period in my life, i am struggling with suicidal ideation resultant from repressed trauma. I listen to this song every day because it encourages me to keep going and discourages me from taking the easy way out. Thank you so much for this song!
Anyone who's come out of depression and felt that joy would tell you it's worth it to just live and do the absolute best you can in every moment. Some moments that's to just sleep and others you feel like doing more. Be forgiving to yourself my friend. You are certainly not alone with those feelings
Thanks for the support, i wasn't looking for sympathy or attention or anything, i just wanted to express my gratitude for this song and to explain why i'm grateful for it.
I do understand how this song helps put a different perspective on things, it has helped me through bereavement ...Keep on keeping on Richard .. Best Wishes ..xx
"Scared of living too fast, too slow". This very line has impacted the most. Its tough growing up and we cant stop it. We must learn to deal losing childhood, and our past.
Goose bumps......never heard such a wonderful interesting song, you hear the first notes and you know.......this is beyond good. The lyrics, beautiful voices and wow that music.......the composition is just breathtaking!!!!
This is one of my fight songs. For me this gives me the strength to keep fighting the good fight while I survive my battle with Endometriosis and mental illness. I first heard this band on my play station radio and I am so glad I did. There music is beautiful and brings joy to my soul.
This is every person's song. As a 65 year old man, I worked 48 years to get to see the silver lining. It didn't just happen and it certainly didn't by following the easy road. It's cool watching my kids make their way on that road now....I hope they find it as well.
People like taking drugs and listening to shit fake gods.they detuned all the instruments and replaced by mixers for a reason. Make your inner resonance with universe weak so you can be easily controlled.

I don't know why I had to live 8 years without knowing about this song, but accept that things come to us when they do, and that I come to things just the same.
So so so happy more people are discovering this incredible band from The Umbrella Academy! I highly recommend they’re album ‘The Lions Roar’ or they’re songs ‘Strange Beauty’ & ‘Ghost Town’.
This song is one of the best things you can listen over and over when you about to go down the rabbit hole and when there is no one to rely on but yourself...
Lol dont 5hink theyed spreciate bieng called ladies lol they were products of the late 60,s lol song was written an partially produced by george harrison
@@johnweaver4253 they have such great voices like angels singing bless ladies you rock and don't let anyone tell you different, you were gifted, have fun and be safe...💜💛💜💛🌎✌💜😂💯
I’ve hit a time in my life where this song really speaks to me. They found the words at a much younger age and to put them to that smooth vibe is perfection. For that, I’m thankful.
I have 6,000 songs in my music, over 1,500 different artists, no songs hit me like this one does. It’s being sung with so much passion and pain. I can die happy knowing I’ve heard this song.
I played this for my mom in the old age home before she passed. She loved it. It spoke to us both and it meant a lot . It was as if it was talking about her life. I will always remember her through it. Thank you , ladies. You are wonderful.
This music is beyond my recognition. It's phenomenal. I'm so sceptical these days, I don't actually believe this music was created without the influence of others. The music is so wonderful yet I'm sceptical how many creators imagines, photography etc this wonderful sound with all the influence of orchestra. The sound is wonderful.
Last year at Glastonbury, after a heavy night, I woke up on sunday morning and went with my friends to see a band i'd never heard of before, called First Aid Kit. Honestly the best thing to come out of that festival for me. This video is so nice.
In an interview they said that this was their favourite track, I can understand their liking for it as when you follow the words a picture starts to form, it's better if you close your eyes. there are not that many songs that can take you where this song does in your mind. both the lyrics and instrumentation are haunting to say the least and thats what drew me to it in the Amex card ad. I listened to the music and wanted more than just 30 seconds of it.
So I was on a long car ride listening to whatever RUclips Music brought my way. This song popped and saw me through that journey. Whenever I hear it, I could feel the wind from both side windows of that car hitting my face again. A beautiful stint of freedom.
Watch it with Afterglow by Sweetgrass productions. Thats where is first heard this song and omfg it damn near almost hypnotized me- it's fully authorised use of the song. And omg is all I ever could say
My aunt passed away from cancer recently at her funeral service we played this and the whole church we're in tears , her husband and children were sobbing including me , my aunt loved this song , she fought against cancer 7 long years , I'm not looking for sympathy I'm just thanking you for This piece of art
My only regret is that I stumbled across them so late...(for me)...fantastic heartfelt music that draws in one's soul... Keep it up, this world needs it right about now....
Is this ONE HIT WONDER ?? Cause I live on this planet for 48 years and I have never heard of this amazing song ... where I have BEEN ? ....till now in 2024 .... Such a GEM ....Love from VENUS ❤❤❤❤❤
My mom passed away a few weeks ago. I work full-time with the grief and pain of it bottled up inside for 9 hours. Then I get off cry for a while, and afterwards I listen to this song to pick myself up and keep going. Thank you First Aid Kit. 🥺❤️✨
It's tough time for you. I lost my dad 1 and half year ago now suddenly. Stay strong it will get better. This song cheers me up I love it. Love all their stuff. Very talented girls.
Thank you for this comment! It is reassuring to know there are others who ‘latch on’ to a certain song while enduring a difficult experience. Praying you find relief from your pain and healing from your grief.
this songs hits so hard... I turned 35 and everything shes singing about hit me hard... once I stood still long enough and took a good deep look at my marriage, job, day to day life in general.... and I felt this wave of.... THERE HAS TO BE MORE TO LIFE THEN THIS
+StarkShips I know man, that ending had me laughing and bawling like crazy, especially during the LB and Sasha parts, my God what a ride that was. that ending was so goddamn amazing, Telltale really outdid themselves.
sunny flare I have no idea what you're talking about, but no one anywhere has ever confirmed that, so it's a lie. They are making Borderlands 3, but it's still in development.
From someone who turned 20 recently. With everything that's going on in the world. I'm most scared of just existing. Instead of not living. Because I've always wanted to travel around Europe. Hopefully once things settle down. We can all start living our lives. All the best and stay safe :)
I understand your perspective. I am in my 30s and I got to the Europe thing. I have resigned myself to the concept of things being different now .. but your comment gives me hope that we will fully return to normal because every generation deserves their chance at freedom.
And this is how music should have an impact: making you sing along and feel the emotions flow through the lyrics. Thank you so much for this song artists! I found this gem on a specific time where I needed it the most... 🎶 "Won't take the easy road" 🎶
Mike Grizzle yeah but the song can evoke those feelings in you without being old. Like seeing a cat on the street can be nostalgic to someone whose cat died for example.
I just love your tendency of what music is about. Its like walking with your head held high and no looking back. Its a feeling of progression. A good mood, a groove, a simple turning of the 360 x
I mostly listen to extreme metal and usually wouldn't listen to something like this, but I'm becoming more open minded. I've realised that the genre doesn't really matter so much: it's about how music makes you feel and whether you can connect with it. There is so much trash music out there, and so little that is genuine, from the heart. This almost brought me to tears. It feels very real and I can relate to the lyrics. Are First Aid Kit considered mainstream? Are they popular?
Well, when a song is beautiful, (like this one) it doesn't matter what genre it is! Even if was from Justin Bieber! (though I doubt he would ever release a good song!)
Really? Even though I try not to be one of those people who don't listen to the songs of a singer because of his reputation, when I listened to some songs of his, I hated them!
Who are these girls?Wonderful harmonies, great song, great musicianship in the background, unique style. The world is crying out loud for such talent. Wonderful stuff.
Just came across this song for the very first time. Ive had it on repeat, trying not to cry. Thank god im cleaning. Ive heard it over 5 times now. What an absolute Gem.
Discovered this beautiful song after watching Umbrella Academy! Caught my ear, caught my attention immediately! I bought their album. Voices are so harmonious- love this!
I only discovered this such a wonderful piece of music because here in Finland this song plays on the television commersial of our national railways. Love love love it!!
Found this song last week and have been really loving it. I wished at first I heard it a long time ago but I don't think it would hit the same. In a very pivotal moment in life. Healing from brain surgeries and today marka 60 days off pain pills. My soul was touched and completely changed life. Finally understanding and not chasing fleeting feelings. I'm grateful✨
I don't want to wait anymore I'm tired of looking for answers Take me some place where there's music and there's laughter I don't know if I'm scared of dying but I'm scared of living too fast, too slow Regret, remorse, hold on, oh no I've got to go There’s no starting over, no new beginnings, time races on And you've just gotta keep on keeping on Gotta keep on going, looking straight out on the road Can't worry 'bout what's behind you or what's coming for you further up the road I try not to hold on to what is gone, I try to do right what is wrong I try to keep on keeping on Yeah I just keep on keeping on I hear a voice calling Calling out for me These shackles I've made in an attempt to be free Be it for reason, be it for love I won't take the easy road I've woken up in a hotel room, my worries as big as the moon Having no idea who or what or where I am Something good comes with the bad A song's never just sad There's hope, there's a silver lining Show me my silver lining Show me my silver lining I hear a voice calling Calling out for me These shackles I've made in an attempt to be free Be it for reason, be it for love I won't take the easy road I won't take the easy road The easy road, the easy road I won't take the easy road The easy road, the easy road Show me my silver lining, I try to keep on keeping on Show me my silver lining, I try to keep on keeping on Show me my silver lining, I try to keep on keeping on Show me my silver lining, I try to keep on keeping on
This song popped up randomly for me. I really thing God brought me this song as I needed this now. Thank you for the great song and thank you, Father God. Always. On. Time
Just adore this song.. Perfect words for me. And just simply gorgeous to boot.. First heard of them a few years ago living in Australia, but when the advert came on here (American express) the song just filled me with joy once again. Beautiful..
I remember hearing this song for the first time and knew it was going to be a big hit. I included it in a Japan ski video I made. Within a year I was hearing the song in hotels and other public places. Amazing band. Continue to produce great music.
I don't know how I'm just hearing this song and of them, period?! I thought I did a good job of keeping up with music, but somehow this masterpiece and amazing band slipped by? Now I'm going to go explore some of their other music!
Same! I pretty much just made the same comment. Hell, not only did I miss the song, but I missed the whole band and all their music and that's sad, because this band is amazing! Now off to explore their other stuff!
True, pure talent. Not only are their voices put on this planet to harmonize w each other ( like Simon and Garfunkel), their song writing ability is absolutely incredible. They write their own music unlike half of the fake ass artists out there today
@James Grimaldi I agree in part but how do you account for Simon and Garfunkel and Crosby, Stills and Nash? They're not siblings. I get what you're saying, however great harmony is great harmony.
@James Grimaldi you have an excellent ear my friend. You can definitely hear the sibling likeness in many groups yet they have their suttle differences. There is a difference in sibling harmony and non sibling harmony and I'm thankful for both
I think you must have to be the most beautiful musicians I've ever heard. My father was a singer and I loved his voice. Omg your voices are so beautiful my friends xxxxxxx
“I tired for looking for answers…” It could also be a farewell note. Someone looking for an non-existent silver lining, and preparing to face the final curtain.
Such a masterpiece. Lord knows I've not taken the easy road. As The Dead said, "Every silver lining has a touch of gray." Hang in there friends of the world!!! 🥰
This song is sheer perfection! The lyrics touch me beyond everything but moreover the build up is perfect. It delivers the message in a perfection that is just...perfect. It's one of the best songs ever for me.. Show me my silver lining please!
This song is pure art. I couldn’t listen to it for like a year because it made me feel something I can’t even explain, which made me sad. This music is so beautiful... 🌹 🐞
It's been ten years since this song was released. I was a sixteen-year-old high school student at the time. This song reminds me of those wonderful springs. My sweet darling... Everything was better in my country back then. Neither my country nor the world is beautiful anymore. Only associations and childish smiles remain.
I went to japan during the peak of corona scare and some of the streets were like completely empty In the heart of tokyo. It was really weird and creepy
So never heard of this band until I received an email about bands playing live "near" me. The name caught my eye and this is the first song I heard and WOW this is awesome. Too bad their concert is happening RIGHT now 2 hours away from me.
@0rbit80y I've just come back to this. Thank you for taking the time to reply sweetheart. I'll check that out. Still grieving but doing OK. Bless your heart. ❤
I absolutely love these girls. They dont sing 'country' they dont sing rock, and its not quite folk. Its a bit of all of them combined. Its special. I love all of their music, and I can sing it!! ;)
Hell yeah, that game had nothing but banger music selection. Great writing, great story, great everything. It was a perfect TellTale Game. Can't wait (if it happens)
i hear this 2 years later, when im recovering from stem cell transplant, and thing is, i dont know how things are. currently im not too good, but stable, and i really dont know how much worse it will get, or even if it will get better, but this song really hit me with the lyrics. it literally explains my life right now.
I've been suffering from severe dysphagia for over a month now and this song has been my anthem. I look forward to listening to this soon as a reminder of what we can accomplish by just keepin' on.

Welcome to the fan club. Their album Stay Gold is great. Highly recommend!

Good luck man! I hope you will beat cancer!
Good luck, fella. My mother was just recently diagnosed too. Stay positive.

I want it to be my theme song for several decades and THEN played at my funeral!
Sorry to hear of your moms passing, but, this song was a very stupid choice for a funeral. "Try to keep on, keeping on" means to live.
STILL loving this track from FirstAidKitVEVO!
OMG
Hi Mr.Vevo xD
Hello vevo man!!
Its Vevo :O
please be available for turkey too :(
Heard this song for the first time today. Shocked that I've never heard it before. Proof that there is still good music to be discovered.
me too. it was actually so random. I was walking home when I heard violin strings. I kept standing still and recorded what I heard so that the next time I connect to the internet I will activate music recognition and have the name and here I am! Thanks shazam!
Me too and I quite agree : it's just brilliant, their music is just heaven !😊🎶...

Great song, and as a multi-linguist, I can’t stress enough how impressive it is that not only is their English perfect, but they absolutely nail a southern US accent!
In Sweden the Englisheducation in school starts early and movies aren't dubbed. I think that both might help.
That's what having a good record producer means.
@@rogerp6104 you would literally never tell they were not from somewhere in the southern US, and I live in South Carolina.. so.. yeah.. incredible
I was in a rock band in London 2001. Lead singer was great burbs was bad backing singer. Ps your music is great x
I was a rocker with my friend. We played in Lincoln's

That's how I discovered this song almost 5 years ago. Funny how it has similar effects on others
It still does! @@arturofernandez304
Just came looking for this song for the same reason.
Love this song whoever is still listening to this in 2024 I WISH you nothing but HAPPINESS HEALTH and LOVE 💯❤️❤️❤️🙏

This song makes me think of my mom. Life has never been easy for her and she always has a smile on her face and laughter in her heart.
Beautiful words for a loved person
I am in a dark period in my life, i am struggling with suicidal ideation resultant from repressed trauma. I listen to this song every day because it encourages me to keep going and discourages me from taking the easy way out. Thank you so much for this song!
Keep strong mate!
Hold on buddy! You are special and there are people in this world that care about you.
Anyone who's come out of depression and felt that joy would tell you it's worth it to just live and do the absolute best you can in every moment.

This song is amazing. I was hooked the first time I heard it. The production, harmonies, and mysterious instrumentation are sooo cool
"Scared of living too fast, too slow". This very line has impacted the most. Its tough growing up and we cant stop it. We must learn to deal losing childhood, and our past.
Yes, that hit home for me as well 🥰
It's also important to nurture the inner child. What's tough is striking a balance between being an adult and not neglecting your inner child
@@AlexsaurusRex agree 100%
facts
Feel that. This song definitely reminds me of TV shows during my childhood.

Ellen Bones halo reach? Add me Ragoshtad1
Absolutely!❤
This is one of my fight songs. For me this gives me the strength to keep fighting the good fight while I survive my battle with Endometriosis and mental illness. I first heard this band on my play station radio and I am so glad I did. There music is beautiful and brings joy to my soul.
This is every person's song. As a 65 year old man, I worked 48 years to get to see the silver lining. It didn't just happen and it certainly didn't by following the easy road. It's cool watching my kids make their way on that road now....I hope they find it as well.
I feel the same and I'm 42. I'm sorry this happened to you.
Amen.
this band is criminally underrated
Very agreed!! 🙂
i want everyone to know their name but at the same time my selfish side wants them to keep a small fanbase
People like taking drugs and listening to shit fake gods.they detuned all the instruments and replaced by mixers for a reason. Make your inner resonance with universe weak so you can be easily controlled.
@@lu9thix or you could take drugs and listen to First aid kit. That's my recommendation.
@@lu9thix I don’t get what you’re saying, are u complimenting them?
As someone who’s going through legal and medical issues this helps me keep my head above water. Thank you.

I don't know why I had to live 8 years without knowing about this song, but accept that things come to us when they do, and that I come to things just the same.
I had to wait 9 years
This is literally one of the best songs of all time. My Spotify randomly played it for me and I'm obsessed. It is just indescribably beautiful.
Same. I just discovered it today and I‘m enchanted by how ethereal and magical it is
So so so happy more people are discovering this incredible band from The Umbrella Academy! I highly recommend they’re album ‘The Lions Roar’ or they’re songs ‘Strange Beauty’ & ‘Ghost Town’.
their
Thanks for the suggestions
I just heard of them the same way, they’re unbelievable!!!
Thanks for the recommendation!
The Lions Roar is *SO GOOD!!*
This song is one of the best things you can listen over and over when you about to go down the rabbit hole and when there is no one to rely on but yourself...
Doing exactly that right now.
The intelligent lyrics blow me away. Hard to believe these young ladies are this wise and talented.
Lol dont 5hink theyed spreciate bieng called ladies lol they were products of the late 60,s lol song was written an partially produced by george harrison
@@johnweaver4253 they have such great voices like angels singing bless ladies you rock and don't let anyone tell you different, you were gifted, have fun and be safe...💜💛💜💛🌎✌💜😂💯
@@manoliaacacia3032 never mentioned the 60,s mate though there style is simpler to some bands of the era in mamas an papas themed have fitted I n well
I’ve hit a time in my life where this song really speaks to me. They found the words at a much younger age and to put them to that smooth vibe is perfection. For that, I’m thankful.
I have 6,000 songs in my music, over 1,500 different artists, no songs hit me like this one does. It’s being sung with so much passion and pain. I can die happy knowing I’ve heard this song.
So glad people are finally discovering these two through umbrella academy! Their raw talent is simply unmatched. Love the show and love their music!
I played this for my mom in the old age home before she passed. She loved it. It spoke to us both and it meant a lot . It was as if it was talking about her life. I will always remember her through it. Thank you , ladies. You are wonderful.
This music is beyond my recognition. It's phenomenal. I'm so sceptical these days, I don't actually believe this music was created without the influence of others. The music is so wonderful yet I'm sceptical how many creators imagines, photography etc this wonderful sound with all the influence of orchestra. The sound is wonderful.
Last year at Glastonbury, after a heavy night, I woke up on sunday morning and went with my friends to see a band i'd never heard of before, called First Aid Kit. Honestly the best thing to come out of that festival for me. This video is so nice.
I wish i knew about this band earlier, lucky for u Jon
In an interview they said that this was their favourite track, I can understand their liking for it as when you follow the words a picture starts to form, it's better if you close your eyes. there are not that many songs that can take you where this song does in your mind. both the lyrics and instrumentation are haunting to say the least and thats what drew me to it in the Amex card ad. I listened to the music and wanted more than just 30 seconds of it.
Those last three added "Gotta keep on keepin' on" added much more awesomeness.
So I was on a long car ride listening to whatever RUclips Music brought my way. This song popped and saw me through that journey.
Whenever I hear it, I could feel the wind from both side windows of that car hitting my face again. A beautiful stint of freedom.
THIS IS REALLY ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL SONGS EVER
Agree
Agree
I'm guessing Robert James really is 12.
Watch it with Afterglow by Sweetgrass productions. Thats where is first heard this song and omfg it damn near almost hypnotized me- it's fully authorised use of the song. And omg is all I ever could say
Agree
My aunt passed away from cancer recently at her funeral service we played this and the whole church we're in tears , her husband and children were sobbing including me , my aunt loved this song , she fought against cancer 7 long years , I'm not looking for sympathy I'm just thanking you for This piece of art
AnnaTheIrishGirl X this is on my list.
Lol
Life is like that.
Some do not want a pity party.
AnnaTheIrishGirl X Very sorry for your loss Anna, its a great song for a funeral. Im sure no one will ever forget
Irish ☘️ Sorry for your loss
This song has been on repeat 27x this is a damn creative , lyrically impressive , deep song. Mysterious, magical, ethereal and just fucking good.
+Oranje Umbrella Walking Tours Absolutely love her powerful, clear voice; no frills.
+Oranje Umbrella Walking Tours you r right!
i have repeated some songs a thousand times
well said: definetely true
How have I only just found this gem! Where have I been all my life! Now I can't stop listening absolutely love it
My only regret is that I stumbled across them so late...(for me)...fantastic heartfelt music that draws in one's soul... Keep it up, this world needs it right about now....
Is this ONE HIT WONDER ?? Cause I live on this planet for 48 years and I have never heard of this amazing song ... where I have BEEN ? ....till now in 2024 .... Such a GEM ....Love from VENUS ❤❤❤❤❤
No they have loads of other equally as good songs. Great band
I'd guess "Lions Roar" is a bigger thing for them but yeah they seem to be more talented then "presentable". 😉
My mom passed away a few weeks ago. I work full-time with the grief and pain of it bottled up inside for 9 hours. Then I get off cry for a while, and afterwards I listen to this song to pick myself up and keep going. Thank you First Aid Kit. 🥺❤️✨
from their name you can see that their songs are helpful with pain
Stay strong
It's tough time for you. I lost my dad 1 and half year ago now suddenly. Stay strong it will get better. This song cheers me up I love it. Love all their stuff. Very talented girls.
🙏
Thank you for this comment! It is reassuring to know there are others who ‘latch on’ to a certain song while enduring a difficult experience. Praying you find relief from your pain and healing from your grief.
this songs hits so hard... I turned 35 and everything shes singing about hit me hard... once I stood still long enough and took a good deep look at my marriage, job, day to day life in general.... and I felt this wave of.... THERE HAS TO BE MORE TO LIFE THEN THIS
Some songs never require that you decide if it's good. Two notes and it's done. This is one of them. No additional comment required.
They speak directly to your HEART ❤️
this is one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard.
This song makes me want to run far away and never come back
Know what you mean!
Sames
I gotcha if you go can I come with ya 👍
Completely feel you 💕
I feel the same but come back
I've got to compliment. This duo is so beautiful. Every sense you have in your being runs through your plain existence when you hear this music.
That ending though!!!! That finale was such a emotional ride I can't wait for Borderlands 3 now!!!!
+StarkShips I know man, that ending had me laughing and bawling like crazy, especially during the LB and Sasha parts, my God what a ride that was. that ending was so goddamn amazing, Telltale really outdid themselves.
borderlands 3 is coming-out in spring or summer i cant wait
sunny flare I have no idea what you're talking about, but no one anywhere has ever confirmed that, so it's a lie. They are making Borderlands 3, but it's still in development.
+MetallicaRules I mean it might be comeing out in 2017 or 2018 :p I got mixed up by a different game
+StarkShips I can't wait for any borderlands cuz you know The Presequel was a thing
This song is so addictive
ikr!! I loved it
Bernhardina Hörnstein it surely is.
Sea sick steve
Bernhardina Hörnstein true; -)
Ja, voll :O
From someone who turned 20 recently. With everything that's going on in the world. I'm most scared of just existing. Instead of not living. Because I've always wanted to travel around Europe. Hopefully once things settle down. We can all start living our lives. All the best and stay safe :)
You're still young, don't worry this is just a glitch, focus on your goals and you'll be fine 👍
Its OK to be afraid. Its normal, actually, to be afraid every now and then. Just dont take your fear too seriously. It will pass. It allways does.
I understand your perspective. I am in my 30s and I got to the Europe thing. I have resigned myself to the concept of things being different now .. but your comment gives me hope that we will fully return to normal because every generation deserves their chance at freedom.
And this is how music should have an impact: making you sing along and feel the emotions flow through the lyrics. Thank you so much for this song artists! I found this gem on a specific time where I needed it the most...
🎶 "Won't take the easy road" 🎶
Oh my God, why have I never heard of them?
It’s so unfair, they are so unique, special and talented!…
Probably cause theyre swedish and this song was mostly popular here when it released
Wow what a song. Heard it yesterday on the radio. Now I listened to it 20 times already. Absolutely amazing.
Is it just me or is this song super nostalgic even though it's not that old? Like it makes me sad.
Al Air I can relate
Al Air same
do songs have to be old to be nostalgic?
Nostalgia - a sentimental longing or wistful affection for the past, typically for a period or place with happy personal associations. So yes
Mike Grizzle yeah but the song can evoke those feelings in you without being old. Like seeing a cat on the street can be nostalgic to someone whose cat died for example.
I just love your tendency of what music is about. Its like walking with your head held high and no looking back. Its a feeling of progression. A good mood, a groove, a simple turning of the 360 x
this is the most beautiful song I have ever heard
One of the*
I like finding comments like this and replying to the original poster, to make them happy with nostalgia or memories for the time it was posted
@@TheFakeFatLegitimate I like what you are doing.
I mostly listen to extreme metal and usually wouldn't listen to something like this, but I'm becoming more open minded. I've realised that the genre doesn't really matter so much: it's about how music makes you feel and whether you can connect with it. There is so much trash music out there, and so little that is genuine, from the heart. This almost brought me to tears. It feels very real and I can relate to the lyrics. Are First Aid Kit considered mainstream? Are they popular?
Now they're popular. .. not too sure about 'mainstream' though. Talented obviously.
I'm glad to have witnessed your epiphany my friend.
Well, when a song is beautiful, (like this one) it doesn't matter what genre it is! Even if was from Justin Bieber! (though I doubt he would ever release a good song!)
+Child of Woe I thought that for a long time, but 'What do you mean' gets me going atm. I can't believe I like a Beiber song
Really? Even though I try not to be one of those people who don't listen to the songs of a singer because of his reputation, when I listened to some songs of his, I hated them!
Who are these girls?Wonderful harmonies, great song, great musicianship in the background, unique style. The world is crying out loud for such talent. Wonderful stuff.
They're just as good live, Wolf- Glastonbury.
2 sweedish sisters
They are epic live.. Highly recommend attending one of their concerts. Swedish pop folk country sorcery
Just came across this song for the very first time. Ive had it on repeat, trying not to cry. Thank god im cleaning. Ive heard it over 5 times now. What an absolute Gem.
I won't take the easy rode, the easy rode, the easy rode oh-oh
Discovered this beautiful song after watching Umbrella Academy! Caught my ear, caught my attention immediately! I bought their album. Voices are so harmonious- love this!
I only discovered this such a wonderful piece of music because here in Finland this song plays on the television commersial of our national railways. Love love love it!!
Keep on keepin' on.
went here after watching Umbrella Academy S3. I wish I could've discovered this masterpiece sooner. feels so good down to my soul.
The entire album is amazing and so is the band as a whole. I recommend they’re album ‘The Lions Roar’ or they’re single ‘Strange Beauty’
Just finished the Episode and had to look it up right away.
@@nerdygal6133 finished listening to their album and Strange Beauty! absolutely stunning
@@von15EL oh wonderful! So glad you enjoyed it!
That's how I found it too. Love the song! And thanks for the heads up on the album absolutely loved it! Always love the style
Found this song last week and have been really loving it. I wished at first I heard it a long time ago but I don't think it would hit the same.
In a very pivotal moment in life. Healing from brain surgeries and today marka 60 days off pain pills. My soul was touched and completely changed life. Finally understanding and not chasing fleeting feelings. I'm grateful✨
Congratulations on being off the pain pills! May your ongoing recovery be blessed with ease and grace. ☺️
@@candacem791 thank you so much 🥰✨
I don't want to wait anymore I'm tired of looking for answers
Take me some place where there's music and there's laughter
I don't know if I'm scared of dying but I'm scared of living too fast, too slow
Regret, remorse, hold on, oh no I've got to go
There’s no starting over, no new beginnings, time races on
And you've just gotta keep on keeping on
Gotta keep on going, looking straight out on the road
Can't worry 'bout what's behind you or what's coming for you further up the road
I try not to hold on to what is gone, I try to do right what is wrong
I try to keep on keeping on
Yeah I just keep on keeping on
I hear a voice calling
Calling out for me
These shackles I've made in an attempt to be free
Be it for reason, be it for love
I won't take the easy road
I've woken up in a hotel room, my worries as big as the moon
Having no idea who or what or where I am
Something good comes with the bad
A song's never just sad
There's hope, there's a silver lining
Show me my silver lining
Show me my silver lining
I hear a voice calling
Calling out for me
These shackles I've made in an attempt to be free
Be it for reason, be it for love
I won't take the easy road
I won't take the easy road
The easy road, the easy road
I won't take the easy road
The easy road, the easy road
Show me my silver lining, I try to keep on keeping on
Show me my silver lining, I try to keep on keeping on
Show me my silver lining, I try to keep on keeping on
Show me my silver lining, I try to keep on keeping on
I adore this song. I've lived in motel rooms...I've wondered where I am...who I am .
tropicalbooty, thanks so much for the lyrics 😘✌.
Awesome
Thanks for that xx
This song popped up randomly for me. I really thing God brought me this song as I needed this now. Thank you for the great song and thank you, Father God. Always. On. Time
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Just adore this song.. Perfect words for me. And just simply gorgeous to boot..
First heard of them a few years ago living in Australia, but when the advert came on here (American express) the song just filled me with joy once again. Beautiful..
I remember hearing this song for the first time and knew it was going to be a big hit. I included it in a Japan ski video I made. Within a year I was hearing the song in hotels and other public places. Amazing band. Continue to produce great music.
I am gonna listen this to wherever I go. This song is sad in way, maybe it’s just me but, it’s incredible. Written from the heart.
This isn't just a song, its an absolute MASTERPIECE! ❤❤❤
I don't know how I'm just hearing this song and of them, period?! I thought I did a good job of keeping up with music, but somehow this masterpiece and amazing band slipped by? Now I'm going to go explore some of their other music!
my reactions when I saw this was exactly the same - how have I never heard of them until now?@@BreakerOneNine07
You now is cover..do you?
You got it! The entire production and mix is done by some very talented people. Literally prfection!
Beautiful 70's vibes! Still love it, even after 8 years!
Ahh these girls are so talented. Harmony is exceptional and the background sound is like a story still to be told xxx
5 years late. But still never too late.. STAY POSITIVE ALL THE WAY.
How did I miss this song? It's fantastic. I am now a First Aid Kit Fan.
Me too 😊
Same. How have I never heard this song?
Same! I pretty much just made the same comment. Hell, not only did I miss the song, but I missed the whole band and all their music and that's sad, because this band is amazing! Now off to explore their other stuff!
True, pure talent. Not only are their voices put on this planet to harmonize w each other ( like Simon and Garfunkel), their song writing ability is absolutely incredible. They write their own music unlike half of the fake ass artists out there today
'Artists?'
@James Grimaldi I agree in part but how do you account for Simon and Garfunkel and Crosby, Stills and Nash? They're not siblings. I get what you're saying, however great harmony is great harmony.
@James Grimaldi you have an excellent ear my friend. You can definitely hear the sibling likeness in many groups yet they have their suttle differences. There is a difference in sibling harmony and non sibling harmony and I'm thankful for both
Yeah, because EVERYONE wrote their own
music in the Good Old Days.
@@honeychurchgipsy6 It was kinda shameful if a rock band didn't write their own songs 😂😂😂
I think you must have to be the most beautiful musicians I've ever heard. My father was a singer and I loved his voice. Omg your voices are so beautiful my friends xxxxxxx
This song is seriously a life saver, in the truest sense of the word
“I tired for looking for answers…”
It could also be a farewell note. Someone looking for an non-existent silver lining, and preparing to face the final curtain.
Such a masterpiece. Lord knows I've not taken the easy road. As The Dead said, "Every silver lining has a touch of gray." Hang in there friends of the world!!! 🥰
This song is sheer perfection! The lyrics touch me beyond everything but moreover the build up is perfect. It delivers the message in a perfection that is just...perfect. It's one of the best songs ever for me.. Show me my silver lining please!
It's a gem of a song.
I can't believe I'm just discovering this for myself. Such a beautiful song...right into my favourites.
These girls voices are absolutely stunning together (love old school country but not new) got me hooked!!
This song is pure art. I couldn’t listen to it for like a year because it made me feel something I can’t even explain, which made me sad. This music is so beautiful... 🌹
🐞
Verissimo
It's been ten years since this song was released. I was a sixteen-year-old high school student at the time. This song reminds me of those wonderful springs. My sweet darling...
Everything was better in my country back then. Neither my country nor the world is beautiful anymore. Only associations and childish smiles remain.
That’s beautiful…🫵
_The music you should listen when your travelling the world._
ruclips.net/video/ft5aY1I22j4/видео.html exactly what this guy does
Yesss!!
I went to japan during the peak of corona scare and some of the streets were like completely empty In the heart of tokyo. It was really weird and creepy
Thank You
_you're_
Great song, young ladies you two have fantastic voices, keep kicking out those hits
Completely obsessed with this song!!!!!!!
1:53 dramatic owl.
xD
Lmfaooooooo xd :D
+Steven Maré Hey, it's a nice owl. :-) Charismatic. :-D
I don't know why, but I'm laughing so hard
lmfao
This has a cool Jolene feel to it. Love that
So never heard of this band until I received an email about bands playing live "near" me. The name caught my eye and this is the first song I heard and WOW this is awesome. Too bad their concert is happening RIGHT now 2 hours away from me.
Yes just completed 'tales from the Borderlands' and had to find this tune. I have to say 🎣🎣 hooked.
May 14 ,more than FIVE years on RUclips,, and stil as magical today as in 2014, the intro is amazing and.......
I'm grieving for my son who passed away last year...at last a song that reaches me through my pain. Thank you! This touched me so much.
God bless you Moira. Have you read any of Michael Newton's work? Journey of souls / Destiny of souls.
Deepest condolences, Moira. I can't even imagine.
So sorry for your loss..heartbreaking....I can't imagine your pain..keep on keeping on..
The best u can do xxx
@0rbit80y I've just come back to this. Thank you for taking the time to reply sweetheart. I'll check that out. Still grieving but doing OK. Bless your heart. ❤
@@patrickdavis8503Thank you for your kind reply 🙏 ❤
THIS is talent. Beautiful young ladies, beautiful voices, so fresh and exciting. The best.
I absolutely love these girls. They dont sing 'country' they dont sing rock, and its not quite folk. Its a bit of all of them combined. Its special. I love all of their music, and I can sing it!! ;)
_Tales from the Borderlands_ kept me waiting for a sequel for 6 years now
@PaPi Chulo
Perhaps, Telltale under new management
@PaPi Chulo
Yea, here's hoping
Hell yeah, that game had nothing but banger music selection. Great writing, great story, great everything. It was a perfect TellTale Game. Can't wait (if it happens)
7 years
You and me both. Telltale is still alive.
i hear this 2 years later, when im recovering from stem cell transplant, and thing is, i dont know how things are. currently im not too good, but stable, and i really dont know how much worse it will get, or even if it will get better, but this song really hit me with the lyrics. it literally explains my life right now.
Hope you are doing good. Keep up the good fight
I've been suffering from severe dysphagia for over a month now and this song has been my anthem. I look forward to listening to this soon as a reminder of what we can accomplish by just keepin' on.
