@@rossydv yeah since the late 90’s…Google says 1996 single. This one from 1998 has been on my mind a lot. I don’t think I was crazy about it then but by now it has that nostalgia, I suppose.

@@EmilyTienne I recall that usually whichever song I’d buy the CD for, right away that was my least favorite song. Sometimes I’d never buy the CD just so I’d continue to enjoy it which actually mostly worked.
His chord progressions are so unique. I’ve played for well over a decade, and have never ran across another artist that uses these chords. He’s a very unique guy. His voice fits his melodies perfect. This guy is a REAL ARTIST.

I was a 80's baby and a 90's kid, with ( pre anxiety and bipolar which in those didn't know what it was. He was my savior , with his words. I remember I would pass on going out with my friends and sometimes cry , and listen to his music , he would sing only to me it seems. He's gifted writing and tone in his voice is just as beautiful as Karen Carpenter , it seems as if he's only singing to you about you. I of course got help and great, but in my darkest moments of my life , he was .... my hero. Thank you Duncan. ..thank you.
Wow, same here, but a 60s kid, with the diagnoses. I was an SA kid in the 70s, with infertility in the 90s and a complete misunderstanding of myself. Currently homeless, in spite of holding a BA from a local small private college in the 80s. Lots of women who experience DV are here with me. It's a complicated time to be alive. Hope you are well. ❤
This is got to be one of my favorite live performances ever! Very good live performer. Sounds clean and crisp like the album version. Not a lot of artists can do that.
Just had a chance to meet Duncan. I think rehab must have went very well. He was in top form, and seemed really happy. I've met him twice now and he's just a terrific, nice guy with a ton of talent. He performed a few new songs at his show. I think we can expect a lot more great music from him in the future.
I met him...or tried to meet him too. I went to a show he did in Manhattan at a ritzy, upper class place called, "The Cafe Carlyle." Tickets cost about $120 or more. Meal cost $160 or more. I was such a fan that I just really wanted to see his show live because I was such a fan, so I was willing to fork out a few bucks. He played a short set. Only 8 songs total...including 2 songs that weren't even his. Then he walked amongst the crowd to meet and greet. I wasn't expecting this but I figured this would be a cool opportunity to thank the man for the music he's made, and just tell him that it really means a lot to me. I wanted to thank him. But instead of accepting my personal gratitude, he turned his back on me. LITERALLY. He wouldn't acknowledge that I was even there. He just kept thanking other people for coming. I waited patiently, as I didn't want to be rude. But some people kept coming and he kept thanking them and acting all friendly. So I waited. Then when no one else was walking past, I tried to acknowledge Mr. Sheik so I could thank him for his music. Again he showed me his back. He was letting me know that he was rejecting me. THAT'S who Duncan Sheik is. He's not a good guy. Not a nice guy. Not a decent human being. The guy is a jerk. He waited till I walked away...which I did soon after realizing what his game was. This is not the action of a decent person. This is the action of a narcissistic creep. I like his music too. But this person is not good. He's just really not. That ethereal sound that he emits. It's nice. But it's not genuine. It's not real. This clown is an egomaniacal buffoon who think's he's better than other people. Sorry for raining on your parade.
@@CesarJoel94 Joel, I wish it wasn't true, as his music is among some of my favorite, but this happened. I'll never forgot it. He was gracious and overly courteous to every single there but me. The irony is that it is with all likelihood that I was the biggest fan of his in the room. Most of those people in the ritzy Cafe Carlyle were just there for whatever music act was on that night. Some were some real fans but it's unlikely that they were fans like me. Why he singled me out is up for debate. He was standing about 3 feet behind me talking with some people he appeared to know when I joked to the friend I was with, "wanna get an autograph?" Could that be it? I seriously doubt it but it's something. It just doesn't make sense but I'll never forget that image of the man's back facing me with me calling out his name repeatedly just to have him shake his head whilst finding other people....ANY other people to shake hands with and thank for coming. I can't help the fact that I love every song and album this man man from debut through Legerdemain, but I just can't bring myself to buy Claptrap. Just not another penny for this jerk.
I love this. Happened to catch it on the radio. Took me back to University days. Just snuck up on me. I absolutely love the lyrics. They endure much better than other things out there. Thank you so much for this. It describes my love I lost going to University that wasn’t sustainable anyways.
Escutava muito essa música na rádio Oi FM do RJ.. em meados de 2007, 2008.. uma época maravilhosa da minha vida... Demorei exatamente 11 anos procurando essa música sem saber o nome e o cantor... Hoje dia 27 de fevereiro de 2019, consegui achar... Muito foda esse som, me traz muita paz ❤️
This song really gets to me!!..his voice is so perfectly beautiful! ♡ this song!..u can see the pain in his eyes when he sings u hear it!..that's y its so gd!!
I hear ya. But most of the time when an artist makes a song this timeless, they become a household name. I feel as if Duncan didn't get the same treatment and he REALLY deserved it. He was an epitome of the 90's and still a staple on my playlist.
I was 10 in 96. I lisrened to all this music then but watched anime on tv instead of these beautiful live performances. I was innocent and full of love and hope. I'm 35 now and revert back to this because I need it to overcome a suicidal depression. What a marvel it is to know I lived in the era of this music's inception. What a beautiful generation we had to be blessed with such loving vulnerability.
bad managers. This guy was made for stardom. This song alone and the the way he performs it was priceless. A talent hidden by 18 year olds baring midriff and singing about doin it
This song is up there with "What A Wonderful World", "Mozart Symphony No. 9", etc. Musical mastery can be achieved at any point in time if one truly puts one's soul into it.
This is easily my favorite song ever! I used to feel the same way. Barely breathing and I can't find the air. Don't know who I'm kidding imaging you care I could stand here waiting a fool for another day. I went through hell for that crazy bitch. But I can happily say I finally found love and I couldn't be happier. Here's to great music from a great era. Man I miss the good days
Met DS twice (once right before and once right after rehab) and while the difference was apparent he was the same gentle soul both times. He has earned and deserves all the good things he gets.
his new album "Legerdemain" comes out in March. his new single "Photograph" is amazing and at radio now. this will be his first album of new original material in 9 years! glad to have him back
Saw him aft yoshi's SF just last weekend .. Can't even recognize him anymore.. Anyhow, his voice is absolutely amazing. Better even.. On point and solid. He's mostly singing ballads now. Nothing like this. He did sing this song at the very end but in a slow ballad way. Wish he'd do more songs like this or more towards rock pop cuz he definitely has a rockin voice for it!

not mainstream enough, too much soul

+sexyhispanic25 he's not saying its not good - he's just giving reasons why most record labels tend to stray away from stuff like Duncans.

One of my fav 90's hits.
He is now working on broadway and is a big success as a singer and composer

One of my favorite 90's songs.
A haunting song that just pulls you in...such a talent!
I'm just catching up as far as this single goes nice to hear it live.
This song will sadly ALWAYS make me remember my last relationship and the sadness I still feel from it :/
Agree
Sorry that yoy have to agree Alison K :(
Same here mate..... this crazy beautiful life is wild!
This is got to be one of my favorite live performances ever! Very good live performer. Sounds clean and crisp like the album version. Not a lot of artists can do that.
Dudes got some seriously slick strumming.
His poetry and love for language just sends me.
Still listening in late 2023! ❤
This song brings me back.
I could watch this man sing all day every day. Love his deep and smooth voice
This song perfectly describes how one feels in an emotionally abusive relationship
One of the most talented artist I have ever come across.
He is a great Artist!!! Let' unite and share his songs i every social network!!
Who is still listening this in 2018??? They dont make them like they used to. Sigh
I'm listening in 2019. This will always be one of my all-time favorite songs.
Mine as well
This bring me back to my college days. Good old days.

know what you're doing, I see it all too clear
I only taste the saline when I kiss away your tears
You really had me goin', wishing on a star
The black holes that surround you are heavier by far
I believed in your confusion, you were so completely torn
It must've been that yesterday was the day that I was born
There's not much to examine, nothing left to hide
You really can't be serious
If you have to ask me why I say goodbye
'Cause I am barely breathing
And I can't find the air
Don't know who I'm kidding
Imagining you care
And I could stand here waiting
A fool for another day
I don't suppose it's worth the price
You're worth the price, the price that I would pay
And everyone keeps asking, "What's it all about?"
I used to be so certain and I can't figure out
What is this attraction?
I only feel the pain
Nothing left to reason and only you to blame
Will it ever change?
'Cause I am barely breathing
And I can't find the air
Don't know who I'm kidding
Imagining you care
And I could stand here waiting
A fool for another day
I don't suppose it's worth the price
You're worth the price, the price that I would pay
But I'm thinking it over anyway
I'm thinking it over anyway
I've come to find I may never know
Your changing mind, is it friend or foe?
I rise above or sink below
With every time you come and go
Please don't come and go
'Cause I am barely breathing
And I can't find the air
Don't know who I'm kidding
Imagining you care
And I could stand here waiting
A fool for another day
I don't suppose it's worth the price
You're worth the price, the price that I would pay
But I'm thinking it over anyway
I'm thinking it over anyway
And I know what you're doin'
I see it all too clear
