The beauty of this scene is that it shows their friendship and that in the darkest of times they lift each other up and for a moment forget about what their world has come to and when the moment ends they come back down to the reality of their world and the responsibility they have to stop Voldemort
If this isn’t played at my wedding I don’t want it Edit: guys Ik what it’s about now, so you can stop commenting about it. Anyway, thanks for informing me of what the song is about. Now that I know, I’m not gonna play it at my wedding😃 For those who don’t know what the song is about, it’s about the Holocaust and it would just be weird playing it at a wedding especially if you don’t know what it’s about but others do. (I wouldn’t say weird but it would be disrespectful? In a way... do you guys know what I mean?)
Olivia •• yeah lol it was written about the Holocaust! I had thought it would be nice for a wedding too lmao but after hearing the backstory I think it’s. about dark
Kaycee Morgan btw harmony is a good ship ngl preferred it than romione or hinny they had a lot of chemistry drarry is also a good ship but i too prefer harmony
not me imagining crying my eyes out as my lover drives to my house in the rain at 2am and he bursts into my room and embraces me as i cry and then see slow dance in the rain 👁👄👁
the meaning and lyrics of this song mean so much. the fact that they chose this particular song to be in the movie at that particular time, is so powerfully moving. it’s almost as if the song was made to be in the movie. it portrays the movie so beautifully. every single lyric fits harry, ron, and hermione’s story so well. like, how they feel when getting on the train to hogwarts, how they’ve been friends for so long but they feel light is dimming because of the dark lord, how it all started at hogwarts and then ended at hogwarts, how the song says that some of past away and how it changed everyone, how their fears lay within their wins (how they are scared to loose each other and others when fighting, and so much more. it’s so beautiful. and the way harry and hermione dance and forget about what’s going on around them. their friendship is so powerful, beautiful, and so strong and it’s proven in this scene. this is one of the most beautiful and meaningful scenes in their film time. well done, jkr.
i was crying already but i saw your comment and completely lost it. people don't give jk the credit she deserves, sure she might not be the best person but the fact that she basically wrote an ENTIRE universe herself is just.... incredible
kuro well let’s not forget she took A LOT of her ideas from J.R.R Tolkien who deserves all the credit because he actually created a whole universe and different languages himself.
this song just makes me want to puke and bawl my eyes out at the same time because i cant believe harry potter is over yoooo what this comment has over 2k likes????? hello?????

Wassup of course! shifting will take as long as you think it will, that saying, if you believe it will take a year than it will most likely take a year. if you think it will take a day, then it will most likely take a day. you just need to trust that you WILL get to your dr. for beginners i recommend the raven method, or the pillow method, both are simple and easy. When trying to shift you need to be at your most calmest, meditation is key. also try staying of dairy, it tends to work better for me. when shifting, do not freak out if you feel numb or tingly, just keep doing what you’re doing because it’s working! and don’t be afraid, being afraid sometimes makes the process longer, trust and stability play a huge factor in this.but after i while if the method you are using does not work, try another one! never stick to one method, maybe even try two at once if you feel your calmest. wishing you shift soon! and i hope this helped a little!

Damn, people. Weddings? I dated a Chinese girl who spoke fairly decent English, and SHE knew this isn't a happy song. How do you listen to this and think "Yeah, wedding?"
Not all wedding songs have to be happy! People have different ideas of how It would be, personally I would love this song at a wedding, it seems sad but it holds a deeper hope I feel. But it's all highly personal so it all depends :)
wow i just cried. this song means so much to me as a harry potter fan, it gave them a chance to relax and forget about the situation they were put in. they were just kids and had all this weight put on them and all these people relying on them. i will love this song forever
I had never seen the Harry Potter series until last week, I finished the last two yesterday, I never understood how powerful and touching it is and this scene in the film is so perfect
This song is so powerful and I love how it can be interpreted in so many ways. It really shows the pain of growing and how child like innocence is taken away during that time , It explains how everyone eventually gets this innocence and hope taken away from them by someone or something by the time they are adults. It also can be linked to the holocaust and a small bit of what they went through. The pain and suffering brought to so many children. This can be taken over to many different events that are still happening today: wars, abuse, neglect, bullying ,etc. I love this song because it helps me to remember that I’m not alone in the pain of what I’ve gone through in live (luckily it has been nothing compared to the holocaust or abuse, but I’ve gone through bullying and still do and I’ve been hurt physically by a person I thought was a person i could trust on multiple occasions. The problems I had have lead me to have problems with confidence, communication and trust and because of these I get what I’ve worked out to be panic attacks. I’m scared of the boy who hurt me and it effects me badly even though it only happened just over a year ago now.) I hope that anyone else who has been through these same situations knows they aren’t alone and to stay with the rest of us to push through it. This world is awful but we need to bring back the hope that we had stripped from us at such young ages (3:28 ) this is a part of the song that I think shows what I mean. I’m only a teen and obviously I’m probably not going to understand this song as much as an adult but that’s what I’ve got from this song. I understand if you think what I’ve said is wrong but music is something that is always open to interpretation and is made to be listened and linked to your own heart and life. It’s made for you to feel and feel close to and this is how I feel it links to me, not everyone will see it the same way but for those who do, I hope it gets better in the end, for you and me. (Extra) The hp movies were also how I found this song and I think the loss of childhood innocence was also portrayed through the series and this scene. It shows how they gave up so much just to be in a terrible situation but they have each other and that’s the only thing keeping their hope alive. The dance really portrayed their loss of happiness and how they are taking advantage of all they can get because they know they could die. Such a simple action is so important to them in that moment just for comfort for the both of them. The scene didn’t seem like about romance to me it seemed like it was about needing something to keep the two friends going to carry on until the end for the world they live in and they hadn’t been thinking about what they needed until that moment only the responsibility that was forced on them at such you ages. I just thought that that part was needed. Sorry if it wasn’t. Apologies for the essay but there are so many arguments over this when music is how you look at it. I understand educating but there is never one set meaning behind music. Music is for everyone it’s there to understand and share not to argue about.
I think this song is indeed deeper than it looks. It's not about the reality in concentration camps. It's about our true nature, the one that we had when we were children, when we were still in the Kingdom. We lost it by growing up, by falling into the trap of growing up. We are old and the magical light we had is now dim. The poor Jim found out what we gave away for illusions of the adult world and when the company realise it they apologise to the future generation for having perpetuated the hoax of the adult world. All what they adults can do is to incite children to raise their voice and to not succumb to the cleaners' will to eliminate any trace of divine beauty. This is a hymn to the child inside us to wake up from the deception. An hymn to our true nature that got lost into the games of the world. The gulag is just a manifestation of this principle of death and total absence of divinity, that comes out as violent institutions. I love this song.
I think you are right. You explain it so beautifully. To me, this song is about the dark side of humanity taking over and destroying the inner child that lives within us. I think this dark side can be represented as greed, violence, crimes, wars...or even society, which is often blinded, dysfunctional and distant from true and honorable values that should be cherished. This song is a call to our inner child, the one true savior of humanity on earth. Such a beautiful and meaningful song.
Amazing son, really touching. I did discover this song via Harry Potter, but it's only when you listen to the lyrics and realise that it is about the holocaust, that you fully understand. Nick Cave is awesome!
this song hits different because harry potter was the only light in my childhood it was a place where i was happy a place where i could got to drift in my stretch of imagination forget about the abuse forget the stress of my mother and family and to be in a place where i was worry free.
@@naytzesuarez1454 Interesting that people say this is about the Holocaust when the word "Gulag" pops up in the song. Gulag was a Soviet work camp and not a Nazi camp, maybe read a damn history book for once
Every time I hear this song I remember my deceased dog bc I danced with him while listening to this record. RIP Chowdy. It has been 4 years, and I still miss you.
everyone here talking about harry and hermione or draco and me here bawling my eyes out for dobby. you deserved the world dobby, we love you. you are free now❤️
Oh god I hope Leonard Cohen listened to this before he passed..Nick Cave's deep respect and reverence of him really shine in this piece..it brings tears..
The magic of reading it for the first time- i will never forget it. Harry Potter, you have. a special place in my heart. I love you. Thank you for helping me escape reality.

Please, please, stop the "still listening to this in [current year]" bullshit. This is not even decades old or anything. Plus it sounds quite childish and trite, too
@Outlaw By Nature Well in the books there was a lot of chemistry between harry and ginny and ron and hermione. But in the movies that portrayed ginny horribly! In the books she was so much more stronger and funnier and smarter. And as for Ron and Hermione there was sooo many things in the books that hinted that they should be together, but it's the same for the movies. There's also a lot of scenes in the movies. But Hermione and Harry, its just weird. Their scenes were honest and playful, but in my opinion there was no chemistry. I think this dance in the movie was meant to show them as friends. They were laughing and having fun for a bit, but there wasn't any "looking in the eye" or "his hand on her waist" ya know? Plus right afterwards Hermione began to mourn for Roj again. I dunno I just love the Hinny and Ronmione ships too much, but I respect yours ofc!!
@Outlaw By Nature there were plenty of scenes in the movie that showed how "awkward" their friendship or hinted at something more of that makes any sense. In the second movie when Hermione was running in the hall after she was unperified, she hugged Harry but not Ron. That is chemistry!! And in the third movie they grabbed each others hands when they saw Buckbeak the hippogriff. There's just a lot of scenes that show how awkward they can be, and that they should be together
What I find crazy about the inclusion of this song in Harry Potter, the emotions that the characters are feeling are far beyond anything they could’ve imagined when they first started in Hogwarts when they turned 11. Furthermore, the Harry Potter films really don’t include any licensed music, let alone soft rock. So something about the inclusion of this song makes it feel so real and heartbreaking!
16 years have been past and this song never changed being adorable for lots of us, words can't even describe what I'm feeling about this song, just tears would be enough my dear.
I was listening to the song and when the part that Harry and hermione were dancing to came I called my little brother he’s 6 and danced with him and I started to cry my eyes out 🥺🥺 I recommend dancing to this song (it is very emotional)
This song is so beautiful. It shows the purely platonic but strong friendship between Harry and Hermione. They just drift away into a small part of existent together, away from there problems and just being together while they dance. I’m sobbing listening to thinking about a harry giving his hand to Hermione.
@@Æthelstan.927_I7O7 it’s not directly about that. You can believe it is but others may not, there is no need to say what others should believe the song is about.
all i want is to dance with my best friend to this song through the painful night just like harry. I wish i was that good at making something fun for a brief moment through all the pain i feel
I heard this song on hp7 and soon forgot about it... then i came across it again last september while watching some hermione vids. It's 6 months since then and Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds has become my favourite band ever. I own so much to JK Rowling and to my testosterone.
This makes me ache for something I once had but I don’t know what it is

Its especially sad when the song even mentions that they’re still only children

Who else in 2020?
First time watching hp today and discovered this gem
Rewatch HP and remember this good song
Me, too. It is my favorite scene in the movie, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows part I that Harry and Hermione's dance.
Meeee!!
we are all in 2020 you div
I got this song from harry potter but then found myself listening to the whole song on repeat and now I'm just in love with this song
This song is so powerful and I love how it can be interpreted in so many ways. It really shows the pain of growing and how child like innocence is taken away during that time , It explains how everyone eventually gets this innocence and hope taken away from them by someone or something by the time they are adults.
It also can be linked to the holocaust and a small bit of what they went through. The pain and suffering brought to so many children. This can be taken over to many different events that are still happening today: wars, abuse, neglect, bullying ,etc.
I love this song because it helps me to remember that I’m not alone in the pain of what I’ve gone through in live (luckily it has been nothing compared to the holocaust or abuse, but I’ve gone through bullying and still do and I’ve been hurt physically by a person I thought was a person i could trust on multiple occasions. The problems I had have lead me to have problems with confidence, communication and trust and because of these I get what I’ve worked out to be panic attacks. I’m scared of the boy who hurt me and it effects me badly even though it only happened just over a year ago now.)
I hope that anyone else who has been through these same situations knows they aren’t alone and to stay with the rest of us to push through it. This world is awful but we need to bring back the hope that we had stripped from us at such young ages (3:28 ) this is a part of the song that I think shows what I mean.
I’m only a teen and obviously I’m probably not going to understand this song as much as an adult but that’s what I’ve got from this song. I understand if you think what I’ve said is wrong but music is something that is always open to interpretation and is made to be listened and linked to your own heart and life. It’s made for you to feel and feel close to and this is how I feel it links to me, not everyone will see it the same way but for those who do, I hope it gets better in the end, for you and me.
(Extra)
The hp movies were also how I found this song and I think the loss of childhood innocence was also portrayed through the series and this scene. It shows how they gave up so much just to be in a terrible situation but they have each other and that’s the only thing keeping their hope alive. The dance really portrayed their loss of happiness and how they are taking advantage of all they can get because they know they could die. Such a simple action is so important to them in that moment just for comfort for the both of them. The scene didn’t seem like about romance to me it seemed like it was about needing something to keep the two friends going to carry on until the end for the world they live in and they hadn’t been thinking about what they needed until that moment only the responsibility that was forced on them at such you ages.
I just thought that that part was needed. Sorry if it wasn’t.
Apologies for the essay but there are so many arguments over this when music is how you look at it. I understand educating but there is never one set meaning behind music. Music is for everyone it’s there to understand and share not to argue about.
Thank you for your comment. Good luck with overcoming your pain from the past ❤
I think this song is indeed deeper than it looks. It's not about the reality in concentration camps. It's about our true nature, the one that we had when we were children, when we were still in the Kingdom. We lost it by growing up, by falling into the trap of growing up. We are old and the magical light we had is now dim. The poor Jim found out what we gave away for illusions of the adult world and when the company realise it they apologise to the future generation for having perpetuated the hoax of the adult world. All what they adults can do is to incite children to raise their voice and to not succumb to the cleaners' will to eliminate any trace of divine beauty.
This is a hymn to the child inside us to wake up from the deception. An hymn to our true nature that got lost into the games of the world. The gulag is just a manifestation of this principle of death and total absence of divinity, that comes out as violent institutions.
I love this song.
I agree. I love this song so much.
Similar to a possible reading of "Donnie Darko"
@@skitziee7310 How is it man?
I think you are right. You explain it so beautifully. To me, this song is about the dark side of humanity taking over and destroying the inner child that lives within us. I think this dark side can be represented as greed, violence, crimes, wars...or even society, which is often blinded, dysfunctional and distant from true and honorable values that should be cherished. This song is a call to our inner child, the one true savior of humanity on earth.
Such a beautiful and meaningful song.
I love this song and you’re so right, I really like the way you wrote it
Amazing son, really touching. I did discover this song via Harry Potter, but it's only when you listen to the lyrics and realise that it is about the holocaust, that you fully understand. Nick Cave is awesome!
I thought this song was about the pain of dealing with the world and how older generations ruined it for the next generations
@Videos RUclips yes but harry potter isn't no where near as impactful and meaningful as the holocaust
This is the song I want people to play at my funeral
LMAOOO
@@kookvsp7863 I actually wrote this comment before I made it Cedric Diggory ahhahahahhahaha
deadric 🙈
Same
Deadric-
this song hits different because harry potter was the only light in my childhood it was a place where i was happy a place where i could got to drift in my stretch of imagination forget about the abuse forget the stress of my mother and family and to be in a place where i was worry free.
Me too girl.
Yeah it's way more heartbreaking when you realise it's about the children who died in the holocaust and not about a book series with wizzard rasicm
@@Æthelstan.927_I7O7 Im a jew, my whole family is. Im not dismissing that I was just connecting it with my childhood. 👍👍
@@Æthelstan.927_I7O7 yeah real quiet now aren't you d1ck
this scene really showed how strong their friendship was and how in even the darkest times it can be light and i love it
literally no matter where I am or who I'm with, this song never fails to make me cry
Everyone is talking about Harry Potter and and the song is literally about the Holocaust.
honestly the use of the song in HP was pretty fuckin tasteless
Some people don’t know it’s about the Holocaust and just remember it from Harry Potter and don’t actually know the meaning behind it yk
true, i first heard this in harry potter but its dumb how they dont even care bout the meaning
@@naytzesuarez1454 Interesting that people say this is about the Holocaust when the word "Gulag" pops up in the song. Gulag was a Soviet work camp and not a Nazi camp, maybe read a damn history book for once
But in Harry Potter it’s a critic about the system and related nazism
Шедевральная музыка и текст благослови Господь!!!
I've listened to this song so many times and yet it STILL gives me chills... It's incredible.
It's really heartbreaking because they were only children. Rest in peace holocaust victims

The respect I have for u for putting his whole name 😅
@@loganwoolley1976 it’s easy for me lol
see its wonderful that great movies can expose this music to people that may otherwie not have heard it
You're absolutely right. Wind River got me listening to Nick Cave, and then I went back and watched HP and was able to better appreciate this.
Couldn't agree more
I think we know why we’re here.
draco tiktok
Nah harry potter
because i want to go hunt for horcrux each and dance to this song
This song makes me cry every time. Absolute classic for Harry Potter fans!
It makes me cry to because It's about the holocaust and not wizard rasicm
The outro to this song is simply beautiful
Still listening to this can't forget hp that easily mate..
frick the boat scene from 365 days, i want to recreate this scene
YES
Ikr
This song makes me feel a way I can’t describe I love it
I cried with that scene from HP :'( It was beautiful.
This song is sad, but really good at once, the most known from HP
My God! HOW THIS SCENE MARKED ME! I cry every time I see her 🥺💖
Cave's voice is so awesome but the background choir/singers/vocals really make this song.
Every time I hear this song I remember my deceased dog bc I danced with him while listening to this record. RIP Chowdy. It has been 4 years, and I still miss you.
everyone here talking about harry and hermione or draco and me here bawling my eyes out for dobby. you deserved the world dobby, we love you. you are free now❤️
Oh god I hope Leonard Cohen listened to this before he passed..Nick Cave's deep respect and reverence of him really shine in this piece..it brings tears..
Одна из немногих песен, которые я не могу слушать без слёз, хоть они и не всегда снаружи..
oh my god this song makes me so emotional
That's the point
Harry Potter, anyone?
Everyone

More like everyone lmao
✌️😔
Here
The magic of reading it for the first time- i will never forget it. Harry Potter, you have. a special place in my heart. I love you. Thank you for helping me escape reality.
I cry so much right now i can’t belive how this song hits me
Harry Potter ⚡❤
does anyone want to dance with me to this in a tent while we search for horcruxes?
on my way ....
Be right there-!
yes ma'am
OMW
im down might be a couple of months late though
Pass me that lovely little gun
My dear, my darting one
The cleaners are coming, one by one
You don't even want to let them start
They are knocking now upon your door
They measure the room, they know the score
They're mopping up the butcher's floor
Of your broken little hearts
O, children
Forgive us now for what we've done
It started out as a bit of fun
Here, take these before we run away
The keys to the gulag
O, children
Lift up your voice, lift up your voice
Children
Rejoice, rejoice
Here comes frank and poor old jim
They're gathering round with all my friends
We're older now, the light is dim
And you are only just beginning
O, children
We have the answer to all your fears
It's short, it's simple, it's crystal clear
It's round about, it's somewhere here
Lost amongst our winnings
O, children
Lift up your voice, lift up your voice
Children
Rejoice, rejoice
The cleaners have done their job on you
They're hip to it, man, they're in the groove
They've hosed you down, you're good as new
They're lining up to inspect you
O, children
Poor old jim's white as a ghost
He's found the answer that was lost
We're all weeping now, weeping because
There ain't nothing we can do to protect you
O, children
Lift up your voice, lift up your voice
Children
Rejoice, rejoice
Hey little train! We are all jumping on
The train that goes to the kingdom
We're happy, ma, we're having fun
And the train ain't even left the station
Hey, little train! Wait for me!
I once was blind but now
I see have you left a seat for me?
Is that such a stretch of the imagination?
Hey, little train! Wait for me!
I was held in chains but now I'm free
I'm hanging in there, don't you see
In this process of elimination
Hey, little train! We are all jumping on
The train that goes to the kingdom
We're happy, ma, we're having fun
It's beyond my wildest expectation
Hey, little train! We are all jumping on
The train that goes to the kingdom
We're happy, ma, we're having fun
And the train ain't even left the station
who else is still listening in 2019? this song is so beautiful
Meeeeee
I am
When I was at his concert last year he absolutely refused to play this song, hahah
Wow....never heard of him and somehow I got to another song via a post and algorithm and found some kickass music. Algorithm worked but #googlecensors
Please, please, stop the "still listening to this in [current year]" bullshit. This is not even decades old or anything. Plus it sounds quite childish and trite, too
This is probably the most beautiful song I've ever heard❤❤ it's so soothing
genuinely one of the most moving scenes in any film ever. so beautiful, without any words spoken
Yeah it's way more heartbreaking when you realise it's about the children who died in the holocaust and not about a book series with wizzard rasicm
@@Æthelstan.927_I7O7 right...
Aww Harry and Hermione.. makes me want to cry every time
Molly Moo's Nails oh, before your comment i couldn't remember where I heard this song. And then I'm like how it was possible?! 😂
@Outlaw By Nature I agree, and I could never understand the Harry/Ginny thing. Like seriously your best friend's little sister????
@Outlaw By Nature
brother and sister
@Outlaw By Nature Well in the books there was a lot of chemistry between harry and ginny and ron and hermione. But in the movies that portrayed ginny horribly! In the books she was so much more stronger and funnier and smarter. And as for Ron and Hermione there was sooo many things in the books that hinted that they should be together, but it's the same for the movies. There's also a lot of scenes in the movies. But Hermione and Harry, its just weird. Their scenes were honest and playful, but in my opinion there was no chemistry. I think this dance in the movie was meant to show them as friends. They were laughing and having fun for a bit, but there wasn't any "looking in the eye" or "his hand on her waist" ya know? Plus right afterwards Hermione began to mourn for Roj again. I dunno I just love the Hinny and Ronmione ships too much, but I respect yours ofc!!
@Outlaw By Nature there were plenty of scenes in the movie that showed how "awkward" their friendship or hinted at something more of that makes any sense. In the second movie when Hermione was running in the hall after she was unperified, she hugged Harry but not Ron. That is chemistry!! And in the third movie they grabbed each others hands when they saw Buckbeak the hippogriff. There's just a lot of scenes that show how awkward they can be, and that they should be together
Probably the best song I've ever heard.
He's incredible. I'd agree but then I'd think of another Nick Cave song.
What I find crazy about the inclusion of this song in Harry Potter, the emotions that the characters are feeling are far beyond anything they could’ve imagined when they first started in Hogwarts when they turned 11.
Furthermore, the Harry Potter films really don’t include any licensed music, let alone soft rock. So something about the inclusion of this song makes it feel so real and heartbreaking!
Yeah it's way more heartbreaking when you realise it's about the children who died in the holocaust and not about a book series with wizzard rasicm
@@Æthelstan.927_I7O7 you are in every comment can you shut up muggle?
Always amazing. Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds.
Aquela música que te deixa triste e por fim, feliz.
16 years have been past and this song never changed being adorable for lots of us, words can't even describe what I'm feeling about this song, just tears would be enough my dear.
Harry Potters last movie came out 9 years ago. Yes I’m crying.
I was listening to the song and when the part that Harry and hermione were dancing to came I called my little brother he’s 6 and danced with him and I started to cry my eyes out 🥺🥺
I recommend dancing to this song (it is very emotional)
this is such a beautiful song......love you nick
Listened to the entire Nick Cave album because of this song in Harry Potter. One of my favorite artists now.
Thanks to Harry Potter I came across this beautiful song
Same.
Anyone in 2020?

I'm listening from the 15th April 1912. Problem on ship. CQD CQD. I'm taking that babeh.
Idk why but when I imagine Harry and Hermione dancing on this song I literally drown in a sea of tears

This song is awesome, I almost tear uo everytime I listen to it, this song brings me such a big confort and feeling of nostalgia, one of my favorites.
this song makes me cry, just reminds me of harry and mione 😭
Who's Mione ( I'm joking lol)
This will be my song for my first dance on my wedding. I wont settle for anything else
Please do not dance to a song about the holocaust at your wedding, wtf!
i want this played on my wedding and on my funeral.
What did you die in a concentration camp
This song is so amazing its hard to explain...
I’m so glad this precious song exists
This song is so beautiful. It shows the purely platonic but strong friendship between Harry and Hermione. They just drift away into a small part of existent together, away from there problems and just being together while they dance. I’m sobbing listening to thinking about a harry giving his hand to Hermione.
The song is heartbreaking because its about the fucking holocaust
@@Æthelstan.927_I7O7 it’s not directly about that. You can believe it is but others may not, there is no need to say what others should believe the song is about.
this will be my wedding song.
Just no
it’s about the holocaust
@@jollyboy3572 why not? Nothings stopping them. They might have a different meaning with the song than you, and that’s okay.
all i want is to dance with my best friend to this song through the painful night just like harry. I wish i was that good at making something fun for a brief moment through all the pain i feel
Wow i’ ve been listening to this song for so long and never relized it’s in HP and it makes it even better.
Flashback to 11/12 year old me playing this over and over again on the night I officially lost my childhood happiness.
It makes me miss something I never had
I heard this song on hp7 and soon forgot about it... then i came across it again last september while watching some hermione vids. It's 6 months since then and Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds has become my favourite band ever. I own so much to JK Rowling and to my testosterone.
How it's possible 23 people don't like this heaven's song?
102 now
Umm its 126
This song makes me so emotional
The production any engineering on this is sublime.
The drums and BVs are extraordinary.
this song makes me crave everything i’ve ever hoped to achieve and it hurts
