My best friend took his own life a few weeks ago, Follow Suit is hitting hard right now but acting as a companion. I'd listened to How To Save A Life so many times since he's died, just part of questioning myself I guess, which is only natural. This cover is very timely. I've listened to Sam since the busking days in Brighton. Sam’s music genuinely saved my life. A couple of years I went through a stage of serious depression, I wasn’t happy, healthy & reached a point where I didn’t want to live anymore. I had no hope or interest in anything. Sam’s music resonated with how I was feeling at the time & it just gave me some comfort to cling onto, hope & happiness. It may sound strange, but his songs were my friends. His voice is exceptional, the range, emotion & storytelling is captivating. However, his writing comes from his heart & you can tell that - I listened to each & every word of his songs, they at times described exactly how I felt. I went to Sam’s live gig in Leeds - I’ve been to many gigs before, but this one hit different. I replayed so much that night, good and bad, however listening to the songs that not only saved my life, but will always remain a part of my life, was special. I have listened to hundreds of different artists, thousands of different songs, nobodies music has connected to me like Sam's. Some music makes me want to sing along, dance, cry - Sam's I just sit in awe, let my mind take over and listen.
im sorry for your loss 🙏
R.i.p 🙏🕊
😢❤❤

You can hear the real raw emotion in this. This isn't just a cover, means a hell of alot more to Sam

Sameeeee
YEEESSSSSS AND ON SPOTIFY PLEASE 😭😭😭😭😭
Agreed!!!
Agreed
i really wish there was a longer version, i find myself constantly replaying this
Real shit
Please please do a full version of this song, it’s better than the original and that’s saying something. Your voice is sensational
THIS is how this song was alsays meant to be done! I've been searching for a cover that does the lyrics justice for years, THANK YOU
SAME !
AGREED
Step one, you say we need to talk
He walks, you say sit down, it's just a talk
He smiles politely back at you
You stare politely right on through
Some sort of window to your right
As he goes left, and you stay right
Between the lines of fear and blame
You begin to wonder why you came
Where did I go wrong?
I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
Let him know that you know best
'Cause after all, you do know best
Try to slip past his defense
Without granting innocence
Lay down a list of what is wrong
The things you've told him all along
And pray to God he hears you
And I pray to God he hears you
And where did I go wrong?
I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
As he begins to raise his voice
You lower yours and grant him one last choice
Drive until you lose the road
Or break with the ones you've followed
He will do one of two things
He will admit to everything
Or he'll say he's just not the same
And you'll begin to wonder why you came
Where did I go wrong?
I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
Where did I go wrong?
I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
How to save a life
How to save a life
Where did I go wrong?
I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
Where did I go wrong?
I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
How to save a life
How to save a life
❤
We need a full cover this is beautiful!
Damn, son.
I lost my husband to suicide in 2012. Your cover, with all the feeling you let out, shows such amazing, true potential.
I hope to see an album version someday. Just discovered you tonight, and your voice and presence are affecting, to say the least. Keep it up, man.
Sorry to hear :(
@@si777 thank you, luv. It is, unfortunately, a pretty big problem everywhere, and mine is not much of a unique story; they all mingle together, the stories of those who've lost the fight. Take care of yourself, and take care of those around you. We never know the true depths of pain another is experiencing. #noonedeservestodiealone, #itsokaynottobeokay, #youmatter, #youarenotalone, #nostoryshouldendtoosoon
Just made me shed some tears. I am so sorry for your loss, may he rest in heaven.
I'm 48 years old and listen to every genre of music from heavy metal, hip hop, bluegrass, country, pop, rock, rap, R&B, etc. and in my opinion, Sam Tompkins has the best voice in music history! Bold I know but thats my opinion.
This guy is ridiculous 😂😂😂. His voice is magic, i cannot stop listening to his songs ❤❤❤
Wow, the emotions are pure and so raw. I just found this on TikTok video audio and haven't stopped listening to it. You have a very beautiful voice. Best version. 👑💯💪💚💚💚💚💚💚💚
*You’ve become my favorite artist of all time within the past 20 minutes. Your raw emotion and beautiful voice made my heart explode. I’m sitting here with tears pouring down my face. You are the kind of guy I’d love to write music with. I want to give you the biggest hug ever mate.I hope to meet you one day* 🩵
One of my most treasured songs of all times... and i must tell that this one is way better than the original one 🔥🔥🔥🔥
beautiful as always brother ❤
I just loooooooove when I can hear the angst in someone's voice, when the song warrants it. Bravo, Sam! I love your conviction and realness watching ur body movements, facial expressions, and voice. Loved it. I wish you rising success...you deserve it.

The part that I don't like about this cover is that it is too short
I've listened to this song on repeat so many times. It's beautiful.
Me too ❤
That has to be one of the best covers of any song I have heard. Incredible
Loved the stripped down acoustic feel, you did this classic song justice. Great emotion and rawness, wonderful job 👏
I agree ♥️
Sam , please never loose that loving feeling. 🙂 You are a gift for everyone's Heart. Thank you so much🙏❤
WOW! I knew it would be amazing, but somehow I didn't expect this😍 it BLEW ME AWAY! Sam, you are one of the most authentic and unique artists I have ever listened to, and someone this generation definitely needs! Thank you for blessing us with your beautiful voice and songs. You made this cover your own. Keep making music and BELIEVE in yourself. We all believe in you more than you will ever understand! ❤
One of my favourite songs, now sung by one of my favourite artists.
Your voice shines so greatly on this one Sam! Keep em coming! Much love.
Schön das es dich gibt Menschen die Musik zu einem ganzen großen ❤machen😌😊ich fühle mich so wohl in jedem deiner Songs... DANKE😊
the emotion you put into your performance makes it sound totally different and beautifully sad and heartbreaking. I loved it. 🙌🏻❤️
This is incredible ❤
My brother always listened to this an would sing along to this song when we were teenagers. He was in a car crash on his way to work (passenger) the day after his 17th birthday. He was always my best friend. He got brain damage in the crash but luckily he’s still here but I lost a big part of him that day. This song is full of memories and you sing it so beautifully ❤ your voice is amazing, full of emotion.
My heart breaks for you and your brother. 😢❤
I can't stop watching this. More people need to see this
YOU NEVER MISS. I am in love with your voice❤️
This is the best cover version I ve Heard in a long time.
Gorgeous cover❤❤❤ I need the full version to this masterpiece
A friend died on overdose a few months ago and I hear your voice and all I can think about is how alone he was inside. Sometimes I don’t realize that he is really gone.
You definitely sent my soul somewhere! Chills for days. This is incredible! Love the rasp in your voice and I felt raw pain coming through. I needed this today. Thank you for sharing your amazing talent!
I literally screamed when I saw u uploaded this, song means alot to me, your amazingggggg ❤
I remember listening to this when I was a teenage parent. Alone with my son setting on an air mattress eating rice and red beans. This always has a soft spot in my heart ❤
Your voice is incredible
Maaaan, you express these emotions soo well in your singing. I just love it 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🙏🏼
I've heard this song countless times. This is the first time the lyrics made sense.
Wow... Heart-wrenching
I used to listen to this song so much when I was feeling really low a few years ago, now I'm better but hearing this song always gets me
Your voice beautifully carried the emotional impact necessary for empathy with the regret of the author of the song.
Wow, this guys gonna touch a lot of spirits with that beautiful voice!
Quality artist bringing own unique style, love the difference you bring with how you sing songs and how you really put all your emotion and heart into everything, wow I remember the stormzy where do you know me from, proper switch up, keep killing it sam
Am thrilled. Thank you very much. Her voice is indescribably beautiful.❤❤
Outfit is remarkable 🎉
Greatest artist and singer of all time!
Means more to me now then ever
I have heard this song many times, but this is the first time I "HEARD " this song. I had many conversations with my brother about suicide. It was doubly difficult because he was way smarter than I am . He had an answer for every argument. In the end he didn't do it . He lived another 25 years. He found love , and joyous moments. Sadly I lost him to a disease in 2020 . He was 59 years old . I miss him desperately.
My favorite cover 🙏🏾
I lost a friend years ago to suicide and as soon as I heard you sing the chorus, this song changed for me forever. I would have stayed up with them all night had I known how to save him and it eats at me still. Thank you for sharing
Sorry for your loss :( .. Don't ever blame yourself though you weren't to know. As humans we kind of suck trying to reach and communicate I'd wish we weren't. If anyone is ever feeling low talk to someone even a stranger.
Better than the original for sure Sam. Luv ya bro. 👊🏼🫶🏼👊🏼🇬🇧
Only now I'm 41 I appreciate this song ..and this is one of the best covers I've heard
Thank the Lord for the Loop function 🥰
Holy shit 😮
Never seen this sung with such vulnerability, commitment and sincere exposure.
Speechless.
Love this cover so much
Holy crap. Your vocals are phenomenal!
Bro your voice is just incredible 💪Love from France
So powerful. I believe every word. I could watch you sing all day ❤
I'm so glad you released this, the short of this you posted was my favorite and I watched it an endless amount of time ❤❤❤❤

I recently lost my best friend he sadly took his life the pain I felt will never be gone but this song helps dim it each time I listen to it the questions I will forever be stuck with the time that I have known you will never be close to the pain of remembering you as a memory I love you brother tell we meet again I got it taken care of down here

I thought it didn't get any better than Sam Smith but Sam Tompkins just blew everything out the water. Best pop/contemporary voice since Justin Bieber! Awesome tone, emotion and range! A new star in a bright sky! 🎤🎶🙌♥️

I always post it down below every video but IT IS the best voice in the world in my opinion! Love from Germany ✌️
Yo if anyone reads this in a bad spot. Suicide doesn't stop the pain you're only moving it. There's lives that you're ruining. Thoughts of a world without you in it and having to face that everyday.
as always and forever.. thanks sam ❤️🩹
Best version of all ❤
