I am a proud parent of a daughter that fell love with another female. She cried the day she told me, and I said to her, why are you crying my daughter?. She said I thought you would be ashamed of me. I said dry your eyes, I am more ashamed of your tears crying about you being afraid of who you are and shedding tears about it. STOP that~ YOU be proud of yourself and never let a tear streak your cheeks again about Who you are! I love you! I am PROUD of you! Today my daughter and her wife have a 9 month old son, and she is very happy, her son is beautiful and my daughter's wife is a blessing!
Wow.. You're the type of person that inspires me to try to have more courage to come out! Especially to my Mom. What a beauty to hear that your daughter is doing well
“I’m not crying on sundays” always will make me tear up so much. I remember crying after church so many times feeling as though I was unworthy and that God no longer could love me, I finally went back to a church not too long ago, but this one persons words kept playing in my ears of “you can’t be a true Christian and be gay” I love my girlfriend and nothing can be wrong with that because I’m true to who I am and I won’t change
"I said i hate figs not f**s" is a quote I remember from a pride parade. Not one person has given me true evidence of God hating gays or condemning them, so u ain't no sinner!!
I know this has been a year since you posted this. If you want a church that will welcome you with open arms, find a United Church of Christ. Everyone is welcome and no one is a stranger. All are loved by Christ. My son is trans and pan.
Idk where ur at but in Springfield Illinois theres a church called first united methodist and its amazing. A few assholes but if u ignore them/ dont seek em out (mostly older ppl) its a really nice church. My ideal is that God made me trans on purpose, to give me trials and test my friendships.
You know this is an old post, but I felt the need to reply. I use to feel the same way when I would go to religion classes at my catholic church. There would be some that would ask about gay people and they, the teachers, would always have to pause and then speak how they are a "sin" and one time, I don't quite remember what the conversation was about but this girl asked about homosexual relations after a long period since the last one. The answer the teacher gave really angered me, if I could remember exactly what they said I would write it out, but it was something borderline derogatory. I literally almost went off. I remember telling the teacher something along the lines of "I know the this is a church and catholicism doesn't support that, however, do not make them believe they have to denounce them as if they are trash. You preach unconditional love, and yet you speak like that..." Well, I can tell you I wasn't very well-liked by this person, but you don't need people to tell you what to believe. I am a nonstraight woman, baptized catholic, but practice other spiritual stuff. I believe in God, and have read the bible, say my prayers. I talk to god every day. I go to church when I feel the need to. I listen to my grandmother when she tells me prayers. I have come out to my family who is mostly catholic and baptist. They have accepted me for who I am, unconditional love. You know, I was also once told that God does not have a face and that Jesus once said to not put a face to your worship, because god had many faces. I fully believe that. You aren't born with a manual, the only "Manual" you have are a society full of opinions telling you what you should conform to. I don't need a person to tell me what to believe, because my intuition and experience tells me what to believe. And you know what, I am happier because of that. You don't need to denounce anything or feel inadequate when the ones that are inadequate are the very buildings you are told are safe havens. What's funny is that almost all the priests I have ever met have raped, and molested one or two of all their altar or youth volunteers. They have all gotten away with it as well. Seriously, whoever thought to make a structured and rigid religion where you aren't able to marry and expect hormone ruled animals to be celibate must have been out of their mind.
I know this comment is a year old but I just wanted to come in and say im a catholic trans bisexual man in a relationship with a woman but belive in our lord not in the poeple who say to bring the word of the lord who are they to judge i know damn well they would not be the first to throw the stone God love you so much he made you with nothing but love and care
I am so happy that like 99.9% of these comments are positive. I literally almost cried when I saw that nobody used bible verses against one another. I am so proud of how far this world has come! :)
Yes! In the cab...the hands touch and that look on their faces...makes me miss that...and wonder why we ever stop looking at each other like we do when we first fall in love...
Can I just say, as a big girl, that when I was about to scroll through the comments to this video, i sighed and prepared myself for a barrage of insults based on her being big . . . I have never been so pleased to be wrong in my life. To every single person who commented on this video and showed unbiased support for her regardless of her sexuality or her personal appearance . . . Thank you. You've all just made my day.
I think if anybody sees nothing but a persons' weight then they don't have a soul. Souls see souls, not the shell on the outside. But hey, maybe I'm just a nutter.
Grandma here again.....this video and song makes me cry, why?.....because it's so honest, pictures innocent real love,.....and as a heterosexual older woman it allows me (insists) I dissolve the image of the bodies and see what's left........the souls🙏🌷, Absolutely Beautiful 💞 What's not to appreciate! Thank you Mary for gifting me with freedom, freedom to allow me to grow and understand and be fully honest with my soul. You are so doing the work of Love. God be with you and bless you always. Love, Grandma🌷
Made me cry I remember when I told this girl from church I liked her and she was the pastors daughter .we didn't talk for 2 whole weeks then she asked me to come over and hang out when I got their we were just hangin and talkin then she kissed me and I realized I was in love for the first time I'm bisexual and she's a lesbain We haven't told are parents but we plan to tell them on our anniversary💞💘
+Tamir Oulu yes that's true. I just mean like no matter what color, race, sex, gender, or gender preferences someone might have. Like I'm a pansexual but there are people who judge me by my looks, race, and sexuality before they even get to know me. Hope you understand :)
I bet you're an absolutely amazing parent, I'm glad you accept and love your daughter for who she is! I know it seems like a requirement but as a lesbian with a Dad who lives in Texas, acceptance and normalization aren't as easy or common as they should be 💖 The world is brighter with people like you here
The plus sized woman in this is Mary Lambert, the woman who sang the song. This is the first song of her’s I’ve heard, she really is insanely talented.
used to listen to this constantly when i was a little baby gay hoping that someday i'd fall in love with a beautiful girl. now i'm so in love with my girlfriend and i'm so happy. this song makes me think of her ❤️
I'm straight but i sang this song at my best friend's wedding not too long ago. When she came out to me i supported her and even introduced her to her now wife. This song will always remind me of them. 💜
My mom would play this song when I didn't know what lesbian even meant. She told me that loving girls is a beautiful thing and that she would love me if I did. I ended up being a lesbian and playing this song at my wedding ❤️🧡🤍💗💜 love you mom ❤️
As my son was growing up I *always* said that I would never put limitations on the person my son could love because finding love was hard enough, even without having to please _anyone_ else, let alone the whole damn world! I said it in front of him, too. I'm happy to report that he has loved only those of his own choosing. I never allowed him, my step-kids or any of the kids who hung out at our house to use homophobic slurs, at least not in my presence, and any LGBTQ+ kids my kids knew were always welcome at our house, and I made sure they knew it. The parents of LGBTQ+ children aren't failures until they stop being the loving support that children need. Parents who take away a child's love, home, security, safety and support are parents that have failed.
I'm not gay but this is a very touching song. Even the first time I heard it. Which was on The Fosters when Lena and Steph were getting married. It was like the perfect timing for the song
I have 2 lesbian mom's and every time I miss them I listen to this song it makes me feel like there right there with me😊. I hate when people make fun of me for having lesbian parents. I know there are other kids at my school who have gay parents and I want to help them because we shouldn't feel ashamed or scared to tell somebody who our parents are we should excited!
Haley was actually not romantic at all? Woman. Miss me with that. What y'all need to watch is Mosquita y Mari and Better than Chocolate (the latter is real cliche)
'I can't change, even if I tried, even if I wanted to.' - this hits me right in the chest. I'm finally accepting that. No love keeping me warm yet, but one day.
*7 Years ago this was the song that gave me the courage to come out in High School. 7 Years later, I've been with the love of my life for 4 years and finally thinking of marrying him.* Love is patient, love is kind. This song is so precious and years later it never fails to make me cry and empower me. And you bet it's going to be played at my wedding.
She says I smell like safety and home I named both of her eyes forever and please don’t go I could be a morning sunrise all the time, all the time yeah This could be good, this could be good And I can’t change, even if I tried Even if I wanted to And I can’t change, even if I tried Even if I wanted to My love, my love, my love, my love She keeps me warm, she keeps me warm What’s your middle name? Do you hate your job? Do you fall in love too easily? What’s your favorite word? You like kissing girls? Can I call you baby? Yeah, yeah She says that people stare 'cause we look so good together Yeah, yeah, yeah And I can’t change, even if I tried Even if I wanted to And I can’t change, even if I tried Even if I wanted to My love, my love, my love, my love She keeps me warm, she keeps me warm She keeps me warm, she keeps me warm I’m not crying on Sundays, (Love is patient, love is kind) I’m not crying on Sundays, (Love is patient, love is kind) I’m not crying on Sundays, (Love is patient, love is kind) No, (Love is patient, love is kind) (Love is patient, love is kind) (Love is patient, love is kind) (Love is patient, love is kind) (Love is patient, love is kind) My love, my love, my love, my love She keeps me warm, she keeps me warm
I wish a lot of people would just take this song to heart. NO ONE will change, whether you try to make them. You can't just be convinced you're straight, or gay, or bi, or something else entirely (including gender identities, and just about everything) because someone told you to. As the openly bisexual Lady Gaga said, "I'm born this way!" and they won't change.
"Forever and Please Don't Go" "Can I call you baby?" "People stare cause we look so good together" "I'm not crying on Sundays" "Love is blind" Why is this entire song so bloody beautiful?
Olivia Martin I'm debating on weather to sign it at my community's youth day....we're a very conservative town... I hope you got to sing it! If you haven't I hope you will some time in the future.
I'm a fifteen year old Catholic. I studied religion for three years before I chose to be baptised as Catholic. I have read the bible twice, and I completely and fully support equal rights. I believe in a God of mercy and love. Key word there is love. I'd just like to point out, 50% percent of the people I know who support equal rights hate all Christians for hating all gays, and they claim to hate them for hating people who they don't know. Am I the only one who finds this incredibly ironic? Hating any one race, any one religion, any one sexuality is wrong. Period. Loving all sexualities and hating all religion does not make you a loving and understanding person.
***** Catholics are Christians. To be a Christian you have to believe that Jesus was the real savior, and when he died on the cross he let all humans in Purgatory and on Earth have a chance at getting into Hevean.
This really makes me angry. I have read the bible, and I know there is some seriously weird messed up stuff in there but in the end the bible was written by people and I truly believe that some stuff was a little messed up. However I also believe that God wouldn't let the big, important things get messed up. So I don't really pay much attention to the chapters that I believe were slightly tweaked. We all sin. Being gay is not a sin, having gay sex is. However, even if you do decide to do that it is not for me to judge you. Every single teen ever has lied to their parents. Every single person has thought hateful thoughts. Every single person has masturbated, those are all sins completely equal to having gay sex. I don't hate gays because I know that we're all in the same boat and that God loves us anyways.
I came out as bi a little over two years ago, but I have yet to date a girl. The world loves to question that and challenge me: "Are you sure you're really into girls if you've never even been with one?" That hurts me and sometimes makes me feel fake because I've only ever been with guys in my life so far...but make no mistake world, I know who I am. I daydream about crushes and dates and falling in love with girls ALL THE TIME. Just like in this video. And I keep coming back to it because it resonates so deeply with my same sex ideal. So if all of that isn't proof, Idk what is. Never let the world tell you who you are. Be your own validation.
I'm pan but have only dated people who pass as male. I'm not female but I know people think that I am, especially since I dont have the right stuff in my pants. It doesnt matter, I know I love this amazing genderfluid person. We're very different from one another, like 100% but we both know who we love and our orientations are still real ,still valid. The moment you start dating a girl people are going to ask you if you're really gay and closeted and they'll say that you're really straight, you just havent found the right guy yet. They are wrong. I want you to know that. I want you to hold onto that fact no matter what they throw at you.
Gabrielle Holt I've never been with a girl and I currently have a boyfriend yet, the people I love know and support me except my family but that doesn't stop me from being myself and proud to be bi
Oh my god I'm loving the comments from young girls saying "I'm 11 and I'm either bi or lesbian I'm not sure yet" like at 11 I had no idea that it was okay to like girls let alone know it's okay to not know what your sexuality is 100%. I'm so happy right now my heart is so warm holy
Yeah, my whole life my family and religion have always been telling me that being gay or transgender is a sin. And because of that, I would always try to have a straight crush. But just last year I had a legit crush, (a gay one) and I was afraid and thought that I was going to hell. I talked to different people, and used RUclips to "research" and I've realized that I'm gay. Now I just need to work on coming out 😱
+Mysteriousity Mysterio Trust me, coming out can be the scariest thing in the world but it can also be the most refreshing thing in the world! I was terrified to come out to my best friend but when I did it just brought us closer together... I just want to say though, if you feel unsafe coming out to your family at all you're under no obligation to come out to them. You're safety always comes first, and I'm sure that whatever God you believe in loves you for being you. Good luck!
When i was 10, almost 11, I had my first crush in a girl. I remember I just accepted it, like 'I like girls, whatever'. I never thought of labelling my self, until I was 14 and one of my best friends came out as pan sexual. So then I started to think what I'd be. I'm 15 and proudly bisexual.
+Mysteriousity Mysterio My religion is completely against gays, but I disagree. This has caused many fights with my parents, but they refuse to listen.
That hand scene...I was crying when they finally touched! This video manages to capture all the raw emotion felt when new live begins. It is truly beautiful :)
I'm a Christian, and I fully support being l/g/b/t. You deserve to be who _you_ are, not what the society or any religion wants you to be. This song is absolutely wonderful, keep on being amazing!
I was adopted by a woman who hid her sexuality from me my entire life, but I knew the moment I met her she was gay. She loved me more than both of my parents did/do. The day she came out to me was such a good day. Because she told me she wanted to let me know she was gay and I told her I knew since day one and that it never mattered.
I'm a straight male and I gotta say Live the life you love and be proud to be you! Also if you haven't come out to anyone yet just take your time and work up the courage!
I hate it how many people who hate on LGBT+ are religious people, and when I was younger I was taught that God set a path for us and everything we do and chose to do was already set in stone, and if some people are gay, bi, lesbian, Trans, Pan, is because that's our destiny and you can't change it, your sexuality isn't your personality so though people judge you for it they have no right to do so ignore the haters and be yourself, and remeber God loves us all no matter what your sexuality, sexual orientation etc. is :)
This is absolutely beautiful in every way possible for love. I am so moved and may who ever you choose to keep you warm, makes you happy and feel the most warmest love in the world. After all, we're all here for love right?
My daughter and I had the immense pleasure of watching Mary Lambert perform last night! This woman is talented and POWERFUL! Mary delivers a beautiful sense of humor with melodious music that weave messages for women that not only move your soul, tug at your heart but most importantly she makes you LISTEN. My daughter's interested in being a music artist in EDMONTON and Mary although a different genre gave her a dose of girl power in her artistic expression. Thanks for the hugs Mary! That Grammy is yours!
This video is the cutest thing I have ever seen. It makes me feel like I'm going to burst into glitter and every time I watch it in school I have to consciously stop myself from smiling like an idiot.
I'M SO HAPPY THERE'S FINALLY A LOVE SONG THAT I CAN RELATE TO WITHOUT CHANGING THE PRONOUNS THAT'S IN MY VOCAL RANGE. we need more lesbian love songs please
OH YEAH, btw if you like this song I suggest you check out the music video for latch by disclosure featuring sam smith. we've got a lot of homophobic haters in the comments. I can't seem to ward them off myself. I request recruits. (JOIN ME MY FELLOW GAYS AND ALLIES, JOIN ME IN MY BATTLE TO DEFEAT EVIL PEOPLE ON THE INTERNET)
My girlfriend shared this with me yesterday saying "She does" and I love this song. The video touches me heart and soul too because it reminds me of similar moments in our rekationship. Yeah, she keeps me warm for sure. Thank you so much for this beautiful song and the gift of your voice and heart. You totally rock.
I'm not gay but I am atheist and I been an atheist sense I was a really young child, because I just didn't understand, and I remember asking my family questions about Christ and they would always shut me out when I asked them questions that made them think , and growing up in the South everyone here is religious or have their religious beliefs, which makes people out me a lot. . . . . . . I use to feel like I was doing something wrong just because I didn't believe in God, and I would pray and it just didn't feel right so now I finally found the courage to tell people. I still gets sick to my stomach when people ask me about it, but now I'm just me & I can only believe what I believe in
remarkably weird Marcus my family held a lot of completely unreasonable beliefs that they indoctrinated me into as a child. They were young earth creationists, conservatives, and homophobes. But despite that, I am actually really thankful that I am gay because it forced me to research and reevaluate everything they taught me. My family is a little less crazy now, they accept and support me at least, so that's a plus. Haven't told them I'm an atheist though.
If you're watching this in 2020 and you're LGBTQ+ you're wonderful and loved and deserving of love. You're valid and I see you and I love you. Stay strong, hug those that love you for who you are. Take care of each other. You're precious.
aAshleyb lol, why would you subject yourself to saluting a flag that doesn't prove anything but just represent a group that is not liked by most of society? even if you meant it as a figure of speech, i still want to know why? Nothing is wrong with me, just asking questions.
Ch1ris23 In a society where hatred and bigotry overwhelm the populace, people like you only drive the world into a much darker place. I myself am a heterosexual male, but I would stand firmly with my LGBT brothers and sisters. Even if it meant to be a social outcast, I would give my life if it lead to the equality that should be the norm being finally accepted.
ChuckInScars I really like this video, it's really heart warming. Mary has something about her, she might be big but she is still really cute! I'm just fed up of people being so hateful towards one another. One Love
Every now and again I come back to this song just to remember that no matter what, whoever I will become in the future- I shouldn't be afraid to show my true colors and shouldn't worry about who I love
Man it's so heartwarming to come back to this song 10+ years later. This song was revolutionary for little baby gay me. I remember she played at the very first pride event I attended, and I had just missed getting to see her because I showed up late. Idk where I'm going with this, just rambling. But this song really reminds me of lovely times.
It's funny how I have a bisexual boyfriend, yet I'm straight. My family constantly makes fun of him because he also likes guys. But I look at them and say "who cares? I love him. That's all that should matter" who cares? He's everything to me
Ok, I have so much damn respect for you! I'm a bisexual female, and I've had guys turn me down because I'm bi. So it makes me really happy to know people like you exist
women writing love songs about other women gives me so much life
Same
Wish I could find a love that makes my heart write a song😕
I'm woman and I'm bisexual so I like women too ❤️
Bee H. Yesssss!! I love this song. 🏳️🌈
I can feel the lyrics deep in my soul 🖤
I am a proud parent of a daughter that fell love with another female. She cried the day she told me, and I said to her, why are you crying my daughter?. She said I thought you would be ashamed of me. I said dry your eyes, I am more ashamed of your tears crying about you being afraid of who you are and shedding tears about it.

Wow.. You're the type of person that inspires me to try to have more courage to come out! Especially to my Mom. What a beauty to hear that your daughter is doing well
Good on you. Bless you both =)
God bless you. What a heart
OOMMG ! BE HAPPY FOREVER YOU SWEET PERSON!
I would hope my mom would be kind about it. I'm too scared to tell her.....
this is literally the cutest thing i have ever seen this whole fucking week
Emily Khoo me tooo :)

I am a 57 year old heterosexual male and I think this song is beautiful; live and let live and love and let love!
Alfred Romeo ❤️❤️
Alfred Romeo you’re a beautiful personnnn
we love you Alfred! have a great day
THIS COMMENT MADE ME CRY, YOU ARE SO LOVELY. THANKS FOR BEING ACCEPTING, YOU ARE A WONDERFUL PERSON
Whoo! Everyone should follow your example man! We in the LGBTQ+ community need more people like you!
I'm so happy to find positive comments on this
"I might not be the same, but that's not important. No freedom till we're equal, damn right I support it."
I think people forget and take for granted how important this song was at the time.
I am so happy that like 99.9% of these comments are positive. I literally almost cried when I saw that nobody used bible verses against one another. I am so proud of how far this world has come! :)
I agree..
Literally? Way to have control over your petty emotions. This song is terrible.
That's fine. I don't even know who your are, so your comment is kind of irrelevant to me.
It's the hand holding that gets me
omg ikr
Yes! In the cab...the hands touch and that look on their faces...makes me miss that...and wonder why we ever stop looking at each other like we do when we first fall in love...
yes omg
YES :')
OMG yas
Can I just say, as a big girl, that when I was about to scroll through the comments to this video, i sighed and prepared myself for a barrage of insults based on her being big . . . I have never been so pleased to be wrong in my life.
To every single person who commented on this video and showed unbiased support for her regardless of her sexuality or her personal appearance . . . Thank you. You've all just made my day.
I think if anybody sees nothing but a persons' weight then they don't have a soul. Souls see souls, not the shell on the outside. But hey, maybe I'm just a nutter.
Funny I did not see her for her size. She has a beautiful voice. And a beautiful song too!!!!
Grandma here again.....this video and song makes me cry, why?.....because it's so honest, pictures innocent real love,.....and as a heterosexual older woman it allows me (insists) I dissolve the image of the bodies and see what's left........the souls🙏🌷, Absolutely Beautiful 💞 What's not to appreciate! Thank you Mary for gifting me with freedom, freedom to allow me to grow and understand and be fully honest with my soul. You are so doing the work of Love. God be with you and bless you always. Love, Grandma🌷

I may have never met you but, you two are my new OTP.
I wish the whole world could just accept eachother for who they are
+angie zayas Unless they hurt other people.
+Tamir Oulu yes that's true. I just mean like no matter what color, race, sex, gender, or gender preferences someone might have. Like I'm a pansexual but there are people who judge me by my looks, race, and sexuality before they even get to know me. Hope you understand :)
angie zayas Yup :)
+Murdarize world peace sounds good to me :D
Yes! World peace man.
Mary is so damnnnn beautiful!!! her skin, her hair, her smile. Oh man she is just gorgeous and cute

I'm pretty damn sure Mary doesn't care if you like her tattoos or not
iLLSHa Cephied unhealthy how?
Ale Palumbo I have to agree with you there. wow, she's adorable.
Its 2024, and I still Love this Song. The video tells a Beautiful Story of Love, its just makes me Nostalgic for music from this era.😩
My daughter posted this to me. I love that she trusts me with everything. Plus, the couple in the video are just adorable!
I bet you're an absolutely amazing parent, I'm glad you accept and love your daughter for who she is! I know it seems like a requirement but as a lesbian with a Dad who lives in Texas, acceptance and normalization aren't as easy or common as they should be 💖 The world is brighter with people like you here
The coffee house worker is exactly my type, and i appreciate it showing a bigger woman being loved, because reality is very different
ceara jennie the bigger women is the singer who is actually gay and a femme. Don’t see that very often haha!
The plus sized woman in this is Mary Lambert, the woman who sang the song. This is the first song of her’s I’ve heard, she really is insanely talented.
Big is beautiful. Always remember that 😊 💕
I'm a skinny lesbian & love curvy women. They're the best huggers & snugglers.
Well its more common than you think! I like big girls too
used to listen to this constantly when i was a little baby gay hoping that someday i'd fall in love with a beautiful girl. now i'm so in love with my girlfriend and i'm so happy. this song makes me think of her ❤️
Jane Daly awhh😍🤘🏼
This melts my heart!
😩this is cute..
Goals 😍
"She says that people stare... because we look so good together." I love that line so much.
This is the song that was playing on the radio when I came out to my mom.
I'm straight but i sang this song at my best friend's wedding not too long ago. When she came out to me i supported her and even introduced her to her now wife. This song will always remind me of them. 💜
Elyce Luther ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
It is such a beautiful song 💕
Me and my girlfriend love this song, we plan to play it at our wedding.
Dan Howell Saved Me fellow phan
lol yeah
Kiba Inuzuka That's so cute
Kiba Inuzuka awwwwwww c: u should
Z Nation 10K Jesus fuck that's cute
My mom would play this song when I didn't know what lesbian even meant. She told me that loving girls is a beautiful thing and that she would love me if I did. I ended up being a lesbian and playing this song at my wedding ❤️🧡🤍💗💜 love you mom ❤️
thats truly beautiful🥺😭
amber warren thank you ☺️
As my son was growing up I *always* said that I would never put limitations on the person my son could love because finding love was hard enough, even without having to please _anyone_ else, let alone the whole damn world! I said it in front of him, too. I'm happy to report that he has loved only those of his own choosing. I never allowed him, my step-kids or any of the kids who hung out at our house to use homophobic slurs, at least not in my presence, and any LGBTQ+ kids my kids knew were always welcome at our house, and I made sure they knew it. The parents of LGBTQ+ children aren't failures until they stop being the loving support that children need. Parents who take away a child's love, home, security, safety and support are parents that have failed.
It kinda sounds like she subliminally forced you lol, wonderful either way as long as you’re happy
@@IamRa-18 thats not how sexuality works, you cannot force your sexuality, stop with the ignorance.
I'm not gay but this is a very touching song. Even the first time I heard it. Which was on The Fosters when Lena and Steph were getting married. It was like the perfect timing for the song
Najjah ThAnks foR THE SPOILER ALERT
Najjah that is good you are straight
Najjah YES
OMG SAME, FOSTER BUDDYS
Najjah You read every piece of my mind on this statement
This makes me wish I had a lover
Right?
Kier Simpson Yup. Same. * cue sad violin*
Im in a relationship but it makes me wanna be in a relationship you know?
Kier Simpson hey nice background on your profile pic! And you will find someone
reminds me of when I had a girl
How could anyone be against something so beautiful?
how do you not have a name
goodness gracious my friend

Because people are cruel.
What’s right isn’t determined by someone’s definition of “beautiful.”
That barista totally rocks an androgynous look. Like, god damn
real talk.
yEs i was like oh dear lordy stop bringing forth the gay in me
I look like that, I though I was some type of strange creep, but now I feel good :)
The dream look for me tbh
Bryn is trans IRL! They're so great!
I have 2 lesbian mom's and every time I miss them I listen to this song it makes me feel like there right there with me😊. I hate when people make fun of me for having lesbian parents. I know there are other kids at my school who have gay parents and I want to help them because we shouldn't feel ashamed or scared to tell somebody who our parents are we should excited!
This deserves so many likes😍😍
This is amazing
+Emma McDaniel I have lesbian parents to! I'm 12 and I'm lesbian just like them. I'm surprised no one bullies me. Oh wait, I'm 5'7.
+Glambert_Girl the only reason I'm not bullied for being gayer than life is because I'm 5'9. i'm also 12.
Mandy The Magic Thief I'm the gayest in my school. I rule at being resident lesbian.
This music video tells a better romantic story than the majority of lesbian romance movies and shows...
true.
the truth has been spoken
and no one died at the end
Jaxx Sarcasm BUT BLUE IS THE WARMEST COLOUR
Haley was actually not romantic at all? Woman. Miss me with that. What y'all need to watch is Mosquita y Mari and Better than Chocolate (the latter is real cliche)
'I can't change, even if I tried, even if I wanted to.' - this hits me right in the chest. I'm finally accepting that. No love keeping me warm yet, but one day.
I hope you found someone to keep you warm.
*7 Years ago this was the song that gave me the courage to come out in High School. 7 Years later, I've been with the love of my life for 4 years and finally thinking of marrying him.*
Love is patient, love is kind. This song is so precious and years later it never fails to make me cry and empower me. And you bet it's going to be played at my wedding.
She says I smell like safety and home
I named both of her eyes forever and please don’t go
I could be a morning sunrise all the time, all the time yeah
This could be good, this could be good
And I can’t change, even if I tried
Even if I wanted to
And I can’t change, even if I tried
Even if I wanted to
My love, my love, my love, my love
She keeps me warm, she keeps me warm
What’s your middle name?
Do you hate your job?
Do you fall in love too easily?
What’s your favorite word?
You like kissing girls?
Can I call you baby?
Yeah, yeah
She says that people stare 'cause we look so good together
Yeah, yeah, yeah
And I can’t change, even if I tried
Even if I wanted to
And I can’t change, even if I tried
Even if I wanted to
My love, my love, my love, my love
She keeps me warm, she keeps me warm
She keeps me warm, she keeps me warm
I’m not crying on Sundays, (Love is patient, love is kind)
I’m not crying on Sundays, (Love is patient, love is kind)
I’m not crying on Sundays, (Love is patient, love is kind)
No, (Love is patient, love is kind)
(Love is patient, love is kind)
(Love is patient, love is kind)
(Love is patient, love is kind)
(Love is patient, love is kind)
My love, my love, my love, my love
She keeps me warm, she keeps me warm
So I'm trans and my crush is and even though it says she I feel so related to this
I wish a lot of people would just take this song to heart. NO ONE will change, whether you try to make them. You can't just be convinced you're straight, or gay, or bi, or something else entirely (including gender identities, and just about everything) because someone told you to. As the openly bisexual Lady Gaga said, "I'm born this way!" and they won't change.
👍😊
👏👏👍👌💕
I can't even count how many times I went "awwwwww!" during this video
"Forever and Please Don't Go"
"Can I call you baby?"
"People stare cause we look so good together"
"I'm not crying on Sundays"
"Love is blind"
Why is this entire song so bloody beautiful?
I'm pretty sure it's "Love is kind"
@@ItsNikhit It's both; it's a common quote in christianity.
Because it's truth written from love.
She is an actual poet so I’m not surprised
Thinking very seriously about singing this at the talent show....
Me too actually. Go for it, I'm sure you'll sound amazing!
Olivia Martin I'm debating on weather to sign it at my community's youth day....we're a very conservative town... I hope you got to sing it! If you haven't I hope you will some time in the future.
Love is patient. Love is kind. ❤️
I'm a fifteen year old Catholic. I studied religion for three years before I chose to be baptised as Catholic. I have read the bible twice, and I completely and fully support equal rights. I believe in a God of mercy and love. Key word there is love. I'd just like to point out, 50% percent of the people I know who support equal rights hate all Christians for hating all gays, and they claim to hate them for hating people who they don't know. Am I the only one who finds this incredibly ironic? Hating any one race, any one religion, any one sexuality is wrong. Period. Loving all sexualities and hating all religion does not make you a loving and understanding person.
***** Catholics are Christians. To be a Christian you have to believe that Jesus was the real savior, and when he died on the cross he let all humans in Purgatory and on Earth have a chance at getting into Hevean.
i dont hate christians, i hate how they think my love is a sin
Its not the love they think is a sin. Its the action.
This really makes me angry. I have read the bible, and I know there is some seriously weird messed up stuff in there but in the end the bible was written by people and I truly believe that some stuff was a little messed up. However I also believe that God wouldn't let the big, important things get messed up. So I don't really pay much attention to the chapters that I believe were slightly tweaked. We all sin. Being gay is not a sin, having gay sex is. However, even if you do decide to do that it is not for me to judge you. Every single teen ever has lied to their parents. Every single person has thought hateful thoughts. Every single person has masturbated, those are all sins completely equal to having gay sex. I don't hate gays because I know that we're all in the same boat and that God loves us anyways.
Katie Granimal Exactly all sins are equal. But just because we all sin that doesn't mean we shouldn't repent.
My parents: you can’t have a boyfriend til your 18
Me: imma do what’s called a pro gamer move

"She Keeps Me Warm" and makes me melt inside :) Her voice is just so beautiful.
that is so true it's amazin

+Silvia Maldonado girl
I came out as bi a little over two years ago, but I have yet to date a girl. The world loves to question that and challenge me: "Are you sure you're really into girls if you've never even been with one?" That hurts me and sometimes makes me feel fake because I've only ever been with guys in my life so far...but make no mistake world, I know who I am. I daydream about crushes and dates and falling in love with girls ALL THE TIME. Just like in this video. And I keep coming back to it because it resonates so deeply with my same sex ideal. So if all of that isn't proof, Idk what is.
Never let the world tell you who you are. Be your own validation.
I'm pan but have only dated people who pass as male. I'm not female but I know people think that I am, especially since I dont have the right stuff in my pants. It doesnt matter, I know I love this amazing genderfluid person. We're very different from one another, like 100% but we both know who we love and our orientations are still real ,still valid. The moment you start dating a girl people are going to ask you if you're really gay and closeted and they'll say that you're really straight, you just havent found the right guy yet. They are wrong. I want you to know that. I want you to hold onto that fact no matter what they throw at you.
You are beautiful and perfect don't ever let any one tell you other wise
Hell yeah. Lgbt needs to validate ANY kind of bisexual before I lose my mind xD
Gabrielle Holt I've never been with a girl and I currently have a boyfriend yet, the people I love know and support me except my family but that doesn't stop me from being myself and proud to be bi
Gabrielle Holt is a #badassbi and honestly i relate to this, thank you
Oh my god I'm loving the comments from young girls saying "I'm 11 and I'm either bi or lesbian I'm not sure yet" like at 11 I had no idea that it was okay to like girls let alone know it's okay to not know what your sexuality is 100%. I'm so happy right now my heart is so warm holy
Yeah, my whole life my family and religion have always been telling me that being gay or transgender is a sin. And because of that, I would always try to have a straight crush. But just last year I had a legit crush, (a gay one) and I was afraid and thought that I was going to hell. I talked to different people, and used RUclips to "research" and I've realized that I'm gay. Now I just need to work on coming out 😱
+Mysteriousity Mysterio Trust me, coming out can be the scariest thing in the world but it can also be the most refreshing thing in the world! I was terrified to come out to my best friend but when I did it just brought us closer together... I just want to say though, if you feel unsafe coming out to your family at all you're under no obligation to come out to them. You're safety always comes first, and I'm sure that whatever God you believe in loves you for being you. Good luck!
When i was 10, almost 11, I had my first crush in a girl. I remember I just accepted it, like 'I like girls, whatever'. I never thought of labelling my self, until I was 14 and one of my best friends came out as pan sexual. So then I started to think what I'd be. I'm 15 and proudly bisexual.
+Mysteriousity Mysterio My religion is completely against gays, but I disagree. This has caused many fights with my parents, but they refuse to listen.
+Sarah T Same, honestly. I'm 16 and I'm a lesbian and I have known since I was 12. I never knew it was okay til last year.
You helped me. More than you know and more than I know you’ve heard already. Thank you. You’re a beautiful person and may God bless your soul Mary 🤍
This is adorable. I don't understand some people can't accept it. Just open your eyes, people!
My blanket... It keeps me warm
HaHa Nice one!
Wt are you doin here paula?
Is that blanket made of butter?
XD
Ariel Bledsoe I wish honey.. Oh how I wish...
I STILL get goosebumps at "I'm not crying on Sundays!" LITERAL CHILLS
Me too! :)
That hand scene...I was crying when they finally touched! This video manages to capture all the raw emotion felt when new live begins. It is truly beautiful :)
I'm a Christian, and I fully support being l/g/b/t. You deserve to be who _you_ are, not what the society or any religion wants you to be. This song is absolutely wonderful, keep on being amazing!
This is beautiful.
I was adopted by a woman who hid her sexuality from me my entire life, but I knew the moment I met her she was gay. She loved me more than both of my parents did/do. The day she came out to me was such a good day. Because she told me she wanted to let me know she was gay and I told her I knew since day one and that it never mattered.
*drowns in tears
Same! 😂😭
Charlie Bear Such a beautiful song. So nice to see people being who they truly are and honest.
Omg! So happy! **Drowns in tears**

I'm a straight male and I gotta say
Live the life you love and be proud to be you! Also if you haven't come out to anyone yet just take your time and work up the courage!

I couldn't stop happily crying at the kissing scene. This video was purely beautiful.
Well, Mary Lambert is beautiful. Any girl or guy would go for her.
***** or straight guys like me
I’ll never got tired of watching this beautiful video❤️❤️
I hate it how many people who hate on LGBT+ are religious people, and when I was younger I was taught that God set a path for us and everything we do and chose to do was already set in stone, and if some people are gay, bi, lesbian, Trans, Pan, is because that's our destiny and you can't change it, your sexuality isn't your personality so though people judge you for it they have no right to do so ignore the haters and be yourself, and remeber God loves us all no matter what your sexuality, sexual orientation etc. is :)
This is absolutely beautiful in every way possible for love. I am so moved and may who ever you choose to keep you warm, makes you happy and feel the most warmest love in the world. After all, we're all here for love right?
My daughter and I had the immense pleasure of watching Mary Lambert perform last night! This woman is talented and POWERFUL! Mary delivers a beautiful sense of humor with melodious music that weave messages for women that not only move your soul, tug at your heart but most importantly she makes you LISTEN. My daughter's interested in being a music artist in EDMONTON and Mary although a different genre gave her a dose of girl power in her artistic expression. Thanks for the hugs Mary! That Grammy is yours!
What a beautiful story and amazing song.
Who’s here in 2024 still LOVING this song?? 😍
❤❤❤
Came here just to hate listen to this garbage. Trump please fix America!
2024 I’m listening and loving this song.
this is so sweet and pure???? im crying
We are all the same so what if some girls love girls and some guys love guys
That is a great message in that video
I wouldn't disagree with you at all. People are people. Such a beautiful song and it gets pigeon holed with the intentions.
A BEAUTIFUL VIDEO, AND SUCH A BEAUTIFUL SONG!!!!
This video is the cutest thing I have ever seen. It makes me feel like I'm going to burst into glitter and every time I watch it in school I have to consciously stop myself from smiling like an idiot.
I want to hug everyone in the comments
And over here are the songs I'd play to my gf.... IF I HAD ONE!
ikr :/
i know right
same here Wyld Heart words from my mouth
true dat *****
Seeing representation of people that look and love like I do is an amazing feeling. Thanks Mary for making this song and video :)
I'M SO HAPPY THERE'S FINALLY A LOVE SONG THAT I CAN RELATE TO WITHOUT CHANGING THE PRONOUNS THAT'S IN MY VOCAL RANGE. we need more lesbian love songs please
exactly!!
there you go, i'm straight and i think these songs are great! 8tracks.com/tamsindennis/yes-homo
Agreed 100% The more the better.
OH YEAH, btw if you like this song I suggest you check out the music video for latch by disclosure featuring sam smith. we've got a lot of homophobic haters in the comments. I can't seem to ward them off myself. I request recruits. (JOIN ME MY FELLOW GAYS AND ALLIES, JOIN ME IN MY BATTLE TO DEFEAT EVIL PEOPLE ON THE INTERNET)
Seeing the way they look at each other confirms that I definitely feel that way towards other women
Lesbians r so adorable, idk why ppl give us such a hard time smh
Coco Nuts Cause they're jealous!
Jk, but it'll get better
I feel this song speaks to me in a way few things do. It is beautiful. It makes me cry. It makes me smile too. It's lovely
I litarelly want to press the like button 10.000 times. This is the cutest thing ever!
Music means a lot to me. I think, when I was much younger, it was music like this that lifted my self-shame of being gay. #GayIsAbsolutelyOK
💜🌈
My girlfriend shared this with me yesterday saying "She does" and I love this song. The video touches me heart and soul too because it reminds me of similar moments in our rekationship. Yeah, she keeps me warm for sure. Thank you so much for this beautiful song and the gift of your voice and heart. You totally rock.
I am a heterosexual woman who loves Mary’s music, this song in particular. Love is love and music is the language of love.
I'm not gay but I am atheist and I been an atheist sense I was a really young child, because I just didn't understand, and I remember asking my family questions about Christ and they would always shut me out when I asked them questions that made them think , and growing up in the South everyone here is religious or have their religious beliefs, which makes people out me a lot. . . . . . . I use to feel like I was doing something wrong just because I didn't believe in God, and I would pray and it just didn't feel right so now I finally found the courage to tell people. I still gets sick to my stomach when people ask me about it, but now I'm just me & I can only believe what I believe in
Same

that.weird.kid8 thanks😉💯
remarkably weird Marcus you're welcome 😊
remarkably weird Marcus my family held a lot of completely unreasonable beliefs that they indoctrinated me into as a child. They were young earth creationists, conservatives, and homophobes. But despite that, I am actually really thankful that I am gay because it forced me to research and reevaluate everything they taught me.
My family is a little less crazy now, they accept and support me at least, so that's a plus. Haven't told them I'm an atheist though.
awww, I didn't want this video to end. it's so cute and makes you feel all warm and fuzzy inside! beautiful!
If you're watching this in 2020 and you're LGBTQ+ you're wonderful and loved and deserving of love. You're valid and I see you and I love you. Stay strong, hug those that love you for who you are. Take care of each other. You're precious.
And if im not?

Happy pride month in 2024!! I’ll always love this song and THAT VOICE ugh how does she do it
This keeps me warm. :)
awww, that was adorable :D
well put.. :)
About time a love story like this!
Someone give this woman a bloody award already!! She deserves all of them just for this song and video :D
I'm clapping, dancing, crying, and also singing at the same time while listening to this song.
if this is not the most beautiful song youve ever heard then tell me another.
so beautiful her voice,her words everything love it.love it
I love your profile picture!
Grégory thanx thats the only flag I salute.
aAshleyb lol, why would you subject yourself to saluting a flag that doesn't prove anything but just represent a group that is not liked by most of society? even if you meant it as a figure of speech, i still want to know why? Nothing is wrong with me, just asking questions.
what wrong with you??grow up,then get a life
Ch1ris23 In a society where hatred and bigotry overwhelm the populace, people like you only drive the world into a much darker place. I myself am a heterosexual male, but I would stand firmly with my LGBT brothers and sisters. Even if it meant to be a social outcast, I would give my life if it lead to the equality that should be the norm being finally accepted.
This hits me right in the feels

awww this is so sweet
Still positively weeping to this song and video in 2023. I love love so much 😭
Im straight and been single for a Very looong time. ANd this song just made me teared. Aww. Still have hope for love.
You'll find it don't worry, there's someone for everyone :*
Thanks Alan. And this video showed that love is for all sizes. :)
ChuckInScars I really like this video, it's really heart warming. Mary has something about her, she might be big but she is still really cute! I'm just fed up of people being so hateful towards one another. One Love
Teehee. Yup. Every sizes deserve love.
What does her size have to do with anything? Shes a human! Love isnt determined about your size and no one size deserves any better!
Most beautiful lyrics
I named both of her eyes forever and please don't go
OMG yes perfect
Every now and again I come back to this song just to remember that no matter what, whoever I will become in the future- I shouldn't be afraid to show my true colors and shouldn't worry about who I love
Man it's so heartwarming to come back to this song 10+ years later. This song was revolutionary for little baby gay me. I remember she played at the very first pride event I attended, and I had just missed getting to see her because I showed up late. Idk where I'm going with this, just rambling. But this song really reminds me of lovely times.
Awww the feels!!!
*Nice video .. Didn't even know it existed til now*
Youre welcome :)
It's funny how I have a bisexual boyfriend, yet I'm straight. My family constantly makes fun of him because he also likes guys. But I look at them and say "who cares? I love him. That's all that should matter" who cares? He's everything to me
Briana Owo your comment makes me happy..I'm straight ,I'm single and I don't mind dating men who are bisexual and transgender.Loveislove
minestyle mytaste exactly! I love him to death... and I don't mind his sexuality... he's no different from anyone else ❤️
aawww i can't stop smiling at your comment LOL soo sweet
Ok, I have so much damn respect for you! I'm a bisexual female, and I've had guys turn me down because I'm bi. So it makes me really happy to know people like you exist
😍this is so sweet
She's lovely. Beautiful video !
i cry every time i watch this
I really like this song
Beautiful and moving! Find that person who keeps you warm.
