I have cried and cried to this song many times. My best friend was murdered back in 2005 and her middle name was "A Star". I know this song was about a lover but the beauty of song is you can interpret through your emotions and song is art. The music alone was cleansing to my soul and I don't cry as gut wrenching as I did at first, but my tears are more controlled but the memories are sealed in my heart in peace...
I'm sorry for your lost. May your friend rest in peace. And I understand the song part because when I'm sad listen to sad and kinda moody songs because they help me through some hard times.
CentsMy10 Yes music is for your own interpretation. Her music helps me not run away but deal with my problems in a lighter sense. This woman has God given talent!!! God bless to you tho:)
She wrote this song in dedication of her husband that passed away. She really liked him and misses him so much that's why she said "heaven has been away too long." He is the only one for her. It's such a tragedy and sad. Makes me CRY so much tearing up! Makes me think of the love I long to have.
I JUST SPENT ALMOST 6 HOURS LOOKING THROUGH GOOGLE, RUclips, AND RADIO PLAYLIST LOOKING FOR THIS SONG. ITS 5 AM, MY HEAD IS POUNDING N I HAVE TO WORK IN A FEW HOURS. BUT THE SONG IS SO WORTH IT.. YESSS !!
As far as I'm concerned Corrine Bailey Rae can do no wrong.....her songs are SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL, heartfelt, soothing, and gives ya goosebumps!!!!! That's real talent, we've been needing a voice like this for a long time, way different from the cookie cutter artist out there now, Thank you Corrine!!!!
No, a rainy day....with a SO. Rain pours down, you and _______ gleefully laughing under a sudden downpour. People take out umbrellas, but still stay happy. You and _______ turn towards each other.....their eyes are more beautiful than ever before. Your eyes lock....your smiles melt away...._____ grins.....and suddenly.....LIGHTNING strikes. Everyone dies. JK, 😂. But seriously..,,
I used to love this song so much, I still do. But listening to it is painful because my ex played this for me all the time. It's a sore spot now and I wish I could find a way to get over that so I could enjoy Corrine's music again.
time will heal it but I feel like every person who makes an impact on our life changes us. I look at like that atleast, don't try to forget it. you changed them too I'm sure. I've had a woman leave an empty space in my heart and it made me look inward, and realize why a single person could affect me like that. it's been a long time and I bet you don't even think about it anymore.. just my thoughts
I haven't listened to this since before my former love left me. I know what you're going through, my friend. Funny, I hadn't listened to this for years until a month and some change before then. Cried my eyes out. Time will heal us.
Dear Mr Jew-Jitsu, As beautiful as this song is, I just wanted to bring to your attention that using the Lord Jesus Christ's name in a manner that's on the level of a curse word to express your feelings, reveals you know or more than likely don't even care about who Jesus Christ is. I guarantee that if He ever reveals Himself to you (and for your sake, I hope he does) you wouldn't ever want to ever utter his name in this manner again in light of the salvation from Hell that he alone offers to every individual. (John 3:16) There are many places in the bible that warns us to be careful how we use his name. e.g "You must not misuse the name of the LORD your God. The LORD will not let you go unpunished if you misuse his name. (Deuteronomy 5:11 NLT) I'll be praying that you'll come to know HIm as more than just a curse word. Blessings in Christ....
jew-jitsu Anyone who rebukes a mocker will get an insult in return. Anyone who corrects the wicked will get hurt.So don't bother correcting mockers; they will only hate you. But correct the wise, and they will love you. (Proverbs 9:7-8) May God have mercy on your soul.
deadbzeus My intention was not to be a troll, but just to point out to Mr Jew Jitsu the reason why I was offended to hear the name of Jesus Christ used as a curse word. Well I hope Jesus reveals Himself to you also as He has to me, because once you know who Jesus is and what He's about, you'd be filled with gratitude and want to defend HIs holy name also. Blessings to Corrine Bailey Rae, You and Mr Jew Jitsu
I love this song, the lyrics, this woman. Her lyrics are so powerful. So sorry her husband died. He was in Amy Winehouse's band. This woman is so beautiful and talented. A true breathe of fresh air. Thanks for the post.
"And I Wonder Why, I Don't Argue Like This, With Anyone But You" ,"I Won't Let My Guard Down, For Anyone But You" If That Isn't The Most Powerful Words In This Beautiful Song. I Feel The Pain.
now she's the real definition of "UNIQUE", i never seen a artist like her before. she's being herself. she's not trying to be like everyone else. the only way is to be different is to be yourself. her sounds are unique, her style is uique, everything about her is unique. love this song!
This song takes me back to my childhood. It's just as beautiful as I remember it being. Always loved how soft, mellow, and whispery her voice is when the beat slows down.
Been seeing someone on and off for 24 years and recently revealed that I was in love with them , got no I love you in return just indifference and mind games. Funny thing is , I loved this person at first sight and never wanted to accept that it could never be. Wish I could convince my heart the same. I've had many relationships with others over the years but somehow our paths keep crossing and yet this person has never said they love . I feel rejected confused and sad as well as a multitude of other emotions. This song is so beautiful and helping me to try and move forward. It helps me to cry it out and reflect as I'm leaving the one person I've ever truly loved. The lyrics. " I wonder why it is ,that I don't argue like this with any one but you ?" All of the lyrics to this song convey all that I wished I had said so many times , years ago! May God bless you all who can relate and God bless this gifted woman Corrine Bailey Rae !💝💝💝💝💝💝💝 Thanks for the beautiful honest musical testimony!
my fav song till nw....diz song juz puts u into a great n relaxing mood...it was also the 1st song i sang to sum1....n i sang it to my first bf...:)..its been a lovely one year n almost three months nw:)hope v continue to make more lovely memories 2gether:)
I sang the lyrics of this song when I was in NICU with my baby doing skin to skin contact. She was so tiny and looked so fragile. It's a beautiful song to dedicate to the one you love 😢.
Most people don't know great talent Hana!! Some people are so used to hearing the same ole stuff. I loved this song the moment I heard it which was back in 2006 or 2007.
SuperKiraPants, This is a lovely ballad. Miss Bailey Ray's voice was a sweet and refreshing sound to my ears. First experienced this piece with the music video and I was hooked line and sinker so to speak. It's honest yet simple inspired no doubt from a deep and perhaps profound kind of love for another human being. Thanks for the post.
I just had to hear this song today. I love this song and Corrine. Can't wait for her to put out some new music. Hope she is dealing well with the passing of her husband.
Maybe it's just my depressed ass, but this song brings tears to my eyes everytime . Makes me think about my dad ( r.i.p ❤ ) & my grandmother ( r.i.p ❤ ) . The only 2 I know who had my back without a doubt 😞😔💔
Watched an awesome movie, Nancy Drew and fall in love with this lovely song！ its soothing but at the same time , music makes us recall all our sweet n sour memories .. nice 🙂 who is with me？
Here after so many years :') Grey's anatomy brought me here years ago. This specific video. Today I remembered this song and was like I should listen to it. Here I am.
from hearing J Cole re cover to this song.. i oh so loved it && i just finished watching Nancy Drew && i notice the lyrics && i just had to find the actual artist who sang this song
This song was in featured in the " Nancy Drew" Movie at the end of the of the Movie.I rented movie just to hear the song over & over again. Beautiful lyrics, and a wonderful song.
+tara lol because I like kitties and she told us not to cry for her. also because I rather think of the Happy times with her. and partly to hide the truth. Very deep question Tara-kun(タラ-くん）
sans the voice uk je ne connaitrais pas cette chanson, je trouve que corrine bailey rae et becky hill ont toutes les deux chanté incroyablement bien cette chanson, a leurs façon, impossible de dire laquelle je préfère... chacune a son petit quelque chose qui vous fait vous arrêter et vous obliger d'écouter cette magnifique chanson... pour ceux qui ne connaissent pas la version de becky je vous conseille d'aller y faire un tour :) c'est fou comme la langue anglaise a des talents en musique

This was one of my closest friends' funeral song, just the other day, I miss her very much and every time I listen to this it brings tears to my eyes.
I love this song, the lyrics, this woman. Her lyrics are so powerful. So sorry her husband died. He was in Amy Winehouse's band. This woman is so beautiful and talented. A true breathe of fresh air. Thanks for the post.
This song puts me in "a place" everytime I hear it. Been that way for years. Even more so now!
"And I Wonder Why, I Don't Argue Like This, With Anyone But You" ,"I Won't Let My Guard Down, For Anyone But You" If That Isn't The Most Powerful Words In This Beautiful Song. I Feel The Pain.

"Just like a star across my sky"❤️✨ I love this song.

"blowing my mind" means to amaze you or shock you, but usually in a good way. It's like it's so amazing your mind just explodes.
The words of this song are so......deep. She must miss her husband soo much.
It's a timeless classic.
The medium sent me here! Love it!!
I sang the lyrics of this song when I was in NICU with my baby doing skin to skin contact. She was so tiny and looked so fragile. It's a beautiful song to dedicate to the one you love 😢.

it feels like your a leaf in a stream lightly flowing down an endless stream
her voice is so amazing
the voice simple reminded me how great this song is!
nver thought the original' singer has such a mellow voice.coz most of the covers that i listened to tend to strained their voice.i love all versions
