My new song "You Love Are My Only” is out now. It’s the first track off of my upcoming album From Muscle Shoals, recorded live over four days at FAME Studios in Muscle Shoals, Alabama. Listen and pre-order here atlanti.cr/FromMuscleShoals
My little brother killed himself two days ago and I totally by chance came across this song. I can't stop crying. We had a horrible relationship but had I known how dark his life had become, given the chance I would have been there for him in a heartbeat. I would give anything at this moment to have been given the opportunity to carry his burden. This song couldn't have entered my life at a more appropriate time. Rest in peace little brother. I love you and will always miss you.
This was played at my brother’s funeral as me and our siblings carried his coffin in. Can’t listen to it now without it bringing tears to my eyes. Such a beautiful melody with beautiful lyrics that have so much meaning
Everything will chance in time. At least you have this song to always remember your brother. Sorry for your loss. Hope your well "Come tomorrow your be right as rain. It will quench your sorrows."
I sent this song to my brother a few years ago. He had a terrible drinking problem since he was a teen and drugs too, but recently he got a DUI. He went to court and I was thinking of him and hoping and praying that something good will come out of it. He has always had suicidal tendencies and hated life. But thankfully, they offered rehab instead of jail time. He was in there for three months and now he’s sober as long as he’s ever been before. He’s only 28 and still has a long life to live. But this song gave me hope time I listen to it. This year, I’m reading messages from him than his obituary. I know this song resonates with a lot of people through different seasons of their life and different hurting. And I pray for you to that happiness again, and that whomever listens to this song, finds comfort. I really really am thankful for finding this music.
Mend that relationship. I'm 34 and my brother has been in and out of prison since I was 14. I fear the worst. But, i have a couple young boys who I'm trying to make sure that they understand the importance they hold to one another. Reach out & cherish whatever relationship you have. work on it.
@@edensavage8934 My brother did his first 10 year stretch when I was 17. Was the hardest thing to wrap my mind around when he was sentenced. At least he's sending you songs that mean something. Best of luck to you, sir.
@@edensavage8934 That being said, it would seem both you and your brother are in a mental space that is mendable. Make yourself happy. Do your best, & find happiness in this life.
I lost my brother many years ago. He never came to us with issues. He always carried mine though. He got into an accident and it was over for him. I wish I could sit with him and see him smile one more time.Thank you for the amazing song foy!
That' how I feel now. My brother was in an accident many years ago and it left him a quadriplegic. A heck of an athlete at 19 years of age and now so dependent on others. Making me very sad right now and I feel so guilty.
My wife sufferd from breast cancer last year. This song pulled me trough and kent me stay strong for her. Thanks God she is doing fine. Thank you Foy for your support (although you did not know ) i will keep you in my hart for ever.
I did not expect having this much replies ! Thank you everyone for the likes and the comments. I'd however like to clarify what I meant, so that nobody gets me wrong. I also feel that you can carry somebody else's burden for a silly reason, as dovid sokoi mentioned. Some people aren't responsible and will endlessly fall back down if you try to lift them up. No one should carry someone's burden in those situations, because no matter how much effort you put into it nothing will come out of it. Everything that you've tried to carry meant nothing and no one should feel that this has been the case with someone they've loved. On another hand, we all need some weight on our shoulders to enjoy life, but not too much. Too much can overwhelm someone. I believe that anyone of us can support someone who is in trouble. You may endorse the role that others cannot. You can teach what you have learned. Lend your physical strength to the one's who've lost it. I believe that this is how us humans grow strong, by helping each other. I hope this reply finds you all well.
For all my friends and family who were giving a raw deal in life and are suffering . I lost everything from mental illness but i still can muster up that strength to be there for you. This songs for you. 🙏❤
Awesome song. My little brother took his life, jumped off & a bridge in Florida. He was going through a terrible time in his life, this song makes me think! I would have bit the bullet for him in a heartbeat.
I wasn't expecting this song to release a flood of emotions. Life is beautiful but can be extremely difficult when faced with the trial/tribulations we all experience at some point. We aren't meant to walk the walk of life alone. My heart goes out to all those who feel the weight of these lyrics in this amazing song, for the loved ones lost, or stuggles you feel burdened by. God be with you, and I pray that as humans, we can all be more kind and loving towards each other. You never know what someone is going through. Love & Hugs to all!
@@erickaanne3464 To every soul OUT THERE: All prayers from Righteous SOULS aka Born again Christians, have power. Sinners prayers GOD hears not. Unless we REPENT and born again and LIVE HOLY, GOD hears none of our prayers. Prayers have power, but these must come from Changed hearts. Proverbs 15:29 The LORD is far from the wicked: but he heareth the prayer of the righteous. Psalms 119:155 “Salvation is far from the wicked: for they seek not thy statutes.” (Many souls(unsaved souls), believe falsely and pray in vain). Mankind is filled with UNSAVED SOULS (WICKED SINNERS). That`s why there`s a calling to REPENTANCE and to BORN AGAIN: Luke 5:32 I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance. John 3:7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again. Luke 13:3 I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.
I lost my closest Brother in 2005, and in 2017 lost my other Brother, I am the youngest, they always took up for me even though we were grown, I am so thankful for them and the time I got to spend with them on this planet....thank you for this epic song. Big Love.
This song helped me through a very difficult time in my/our lives. My wife was diagnosed breast-cancer. She has been treated very well and is ok now. Thank God. Thank you Foy for your gift.
Same here pretty much, found his brousing RUclips a few months back. Fell in love with his music straight away, it's a huge shame people like him arent truly recognised
I see so many comments about suicide or death here. I wish I could comment to each of you. I too lost my 16 year old brother and this song breaks my heart and heals it at the same time. God bless y’all, forge on and don’t let their passing be in vain. ❤
My best friend's boyfriend recommended your music to me and this is the first song I've heard of yours and I have to say I'm quite blown away. You are one of my new favorites, and I'm quite jealous of the mustache. Thanks for bringing your flavor of beauty to the world, brother.
Life is unpredictable but for some reason or other we are still here for another few years or maybe decades. Don't look back it's pointless, grieve the loss cos there are no answers just move forward & help those around you with this new appreciation for life. We will always hold these special people close to our hearts but ,like them, we are here for a very short time & everything is unfolding as it should. Since I was 16 I have known at least a dozen people who have died from suicide, road accidents or sickness. When its your time its your time. Make peace with your creator.
I lost my dad in January and had to step into his place with my mom and nieces. I heard this song and was instantly obsessed. I sent it to them and they both loved it. Perfect song for the perfect storm going on in my life. ❤
The world could be such a better place if everyone came together in peace and love, both my brothers are addicts and my father is dying from lung cancer, I’ve suffered with chronic depression and anxiety for 20plus years, this song hits hard. Peace and love to all that’s listening to this! Keep fighting the fight of life!
I return to this track so often, it is the perfect song, perform with such honesty and raw charm...such a great song too, I feel as if I was sitting in that space, that close..nice!
Usually the one who tries to carry all the burdens of others; and never lets anyone help or carry theirs. I'm going through one of the worst heartbreaks I have ever felt. This beautiful, soul touching song is reminding me that I am not alone and it's okay to let others take care of me for once and let them carry a little bit of the burden until Im strong again. 💜 💜
my sister passed away in 2012. she was a poverty stricken single mother and opioid addict. I feel if i had carried her burdens...helped more....maybe she would be with us still. I listen to this song and cry every time. Now I need someone to help me carry my burdens and I have no one or nothing but music. this song saddens me but the beauty of it makes my heart warm. "make it rain" by Foy is also a good one. deep, soulful, beautiful music!

This world is full of great artists that deserve our atention!!! In a sea of so much noise and musical dirt, we need to let the good music go up to breathe. Only then will we not be dying for lack of "air"
João di’Caetano This is one of those small-minded views that's brought like a decree from heaven. Who are you to say what is "good" music? What about letting the young folk dance? Courtship songs? Songs that deliver a message? Songs that make one feel powerful? Music is situational. There is no bad music, there is only music that has a harder time finding an audience.
Still love this song. Listen to it at least once a week. Played it to one of my students whose having a rough time this week, first time I’ve seen her smile in a while.
Been threw alot in last decade. Lost the people that taught me so much about life my dear aunt, before that my grandfather to dementia I took care of him for three hard years then a really good friend that was like a older brother past because people have to be cruel, then I fought cancer on top of raising two girls that are just like me and my brother when we were kids. It's sad we grew distant over the years, but lately that's something I need to fix this song made me see that. Then what started the decade of ache was my grandmother passing and I wasn't around it killed me inside. She taught me music, art, and to express myself kinda set the strings aside for long time. This song helps so much right now and makes me revived. Thank you foy vance for giving a little bit a light in dismal time's you have the right words for people who dont. Your greatestness is comparable to Jim croce don't stop what your doing. I know I have battles to come and people by my side to not go it alone. So I can be little bit more upbeat to feel good.
Honestly im the little brother and i havent been okay for along time now I try and numb the pain with whatever I can find I really hope one day this pain goes away and I can finally be free
My Eyes are welled up leaking emotions and pains that had been buried deep for many years! You Sir Foy have created a masterpiece ! Thank you for helping me heal today
I have a brother who struggle with life. I want him to excel but things are not working out for him. I really want to convey this song to him and comfort him but we have had our life complicated. I have always watched for him and I will always continue to do so. Even if it doesnt show on the outside, I will always be there for him in the shadows.
This song is everything to me right now. I got through half the song and immediately bought every album Foy has. Now I'm gonna learn this song on piano. Major love!
Foy, thank you for sharing this song. I have a friend going through a very dark time in his life and our circle of friends have asked me to talk to him. And, I ask why me; we are all friends and they all say" You'll know what to say"! I ask myself "WTF"! Your song has given me clarity and the confidence to talk to my brother. I am sure as an artist you have no idea who you songs will touch or how they will be received. My friend with tears in my eyes "you are doing Gods work". Thank you for this song. Thank you!
@@rhondaharmon2540 I am sorry for your father. I wish he rest in peace. You have your husband with you and it is great blessing. Life is like this. Nothing is complete.
I’m a twin and I am 43 years young. My brother lives 2000 miles away and I haven’t seen him in over 8 years. We have had children and we live so far apart yet we carry this connection. When I go silent or he does we are the only ones that know what’s up without a word spoken. We carry our burdens. This song speaks volumes to us.
We just found out my mother in law has terminal cancer with months to live, I will share this with my wife when she is ready. This is such an intimate song from the heart. Wish everyone well.
Sometimes you just grieve for someone still alive and it's so hard, cause I miss my brother even though he's still here. He's my baby brother i just want to see him smile again and take away his pain. Lost his soul in Afghanistan standing up for his country and now who's standing there to help him 😢 💔
Sorry to hear this it’s so sad to hear I wish you and your brother one day find inner peace have a good day from a scouser aka Liverpudlian from Liverpool England 🙌🙌
This made my heart hurt... I’m going though a break up after 6 years .. and it hurts badly .. but I feel pain for others out there who are going through any type of struggle. I know I can handle my pains but for people who don’t think you can I know you can I pray every night for god to give strength to those who are struggling. We are all brothers and sisters and unfortunately we have to feel pain to make us feel not just happiness but everything else. Without pain and struggle we wouldn’t know the true beauty of anything and could never know happiness. Wonderful song thank you! Everything will be alright! Feeling so deeply is a blessing and a curse.
This is a message to all my loved friends and family, with all my love, to anyone that is struggling with the painful things we endure, I know your pain,love , MAP
Wow. Foy, if you had any idea just how much your music is helping me get through right now. I am going through things that, I am told, most would have killed themselves by now. This is so calming and soothing. I hope you never have to understand what I mean, but even if you had a small glimpse, I know you would know you are where you belong. I am truly grateful for this music and hearing your passion. I hope for you, the same peace and calm I am able to feel when listening to your music. Beautiful just does not do it justice to describe.
I sent this song to my life long friend who was dying of pancreatic cancer. We spent many years jamming together amongst other things. He passed away on January 5 2019 I miss him. I will see you soon my brother and join you in that band up in the sky. I love you man
There is this strong attraction of obsessively needing to listen to this song over and over again. This version is divine. Emotionally, musically, vocally and filmically. It's filling something that I actually need to fill in myself... I know... but Foy is doing it for me for a while until I'm ready. Thank you for that! I'm happy the craftmanship hasn't died out yet. You give me hope. Go on brave man :)
I had the opportunity to see Foy this past Thursday for the first time. It was an amazing show in a small venue.He played this song on guitar, I wish he had performed this song on piano, it just hits different

Still love this song. Listen to it at least once a week. Played it to one of my students whose having a rough time this week, first time I’ve seen her smile in a while.
Been threw alot in last decade. Lost the people that taught me so much about life my dear aunt, before that my grandfather to dementia I took care of him for three hard years then a really good friend that was like a older brother past because people have to be cruel, then I fought cancer on top of raising two girls that are just like me and my brother when we were kids. It's sad we grew distant over the years, but lately that's something I need to fix this song made me see that. Then what started the decade of ache was my grandmother passing and I wasn't around it killed me inside. She taught me music, art, and to express myself kinda set the strings aside for long time. This song helps so much right now and makes me revived. Thank you foy vance for giving a little bit a light in dismal time's you have the right words for people who dont. Your greatestness is comparable to Jim croce don't stop what your doing. I know I have battles to come and people by my side to not go it alone. So I can be little bit more upbeat to feel good.
What a beautiful song and what a great voice! Outstanding!
Honestly im the little brother and i havent been okay for along time now I try and numb the pain with whatever I can find I really hope one day this pain goes away and I can finally be free
Praying for you. Take care
My Eyes are welled up leaking emotions and pains that had been buried deep for many years! You Sir Foy have created a masterpiece ! Thank you for helping me heal today
I have a brother who struggle with life. I want him to excel but things are not working out for him. I really want to convey this song to him and comfort him but we have had our life complicated. I have always watched for him and I will always continue to do so. Even if it doesnt show on the outside, I will always be there for him in the shadows.
This song is everything to me right now. I got through half the song and immediately bought every album Foy has. Now I'm gonna learn this song on piano. Major love!
A peace through music in a time no else understands for all my buddys and gals, with a burden. Gods got you and me. Thank you....
This song has hit me in so many ways over the last year but my soul settles in every time
Where the hell have I been not to have heard of this man..... what a voice.
Thank you youtube for recommending this absolutely solid gold song
Foy, thank you for sharing this song. I have a friend going through a very dark time in his life and our circle of friends have asked me to talk to him. And, I ask why me; we are all friends and they all say" You'll know what to say"! I ask myself "WTF"! Your song has given me clarity and the confidence to talk to my brother. I am sure as an artist you have no idea who you songs will touch or how they will be received. My friend with tears in my eyes "you are doing Gods work". Thank you for this song. Thank you!
An immense talent hardly recognized.
This song makes me feel good while I am passing very hard period of my life. Thank you....
Goksen Kemer my father just passed away 2 months ago and RUclips must have known I needed this. I am now an orphan with only my husband at 62.
@@rhondaharmon2540 I am sorry for your father. I wish he rest in peace. You have your husband with you and it is great blessing. Life is like this. Nothing is complete.
Goksen Kemer he lived until he was 90. Can’t ask for more than that
Very long life. Nearly one century.
You'll be alright brother, I know..
I’m a twin and I am 43 years young. My brother lives 2000 miles away and I haven’t seen him in over 8 years.
We have had children and we live so far apart yet we carry this connection. When I go silent or he does we are the only ones that know what’s up without a word spoken.
We carry our burdens. This song speaks volumes to us.
I’m a twin also and we carry the same bond. It’s like a tide inside
We just found out my mother in law has terminal cancer with months to live, I will share this with my wife when she is ready. This is such an intimate song from the heart. Wish everyone well.
God bless u...prayers to u 💜
Sometimes you just grieve for someone still alive and it's so hard, cause I miss my brother even though he's still here. He's my baby brother i just want to see him smile again and take away his pain. Lost his soul in Afghanistan standing up for his country and now who's standing there to help him 😢 💔
Sorry to hear this it’s so sad to hear I wish you and your brother one day find inner peace have a good day from a scouser aka Liverpudlian from Liverpool England 🙌🙌
Hadn't heard of him until Keith Urban performance. What a fantastic voice and musician!
This made my heart hurt... I’m going though a break up after 6 years .. and it hurts badly .. but I feel pain for others out there who are going through any type of struggle. I know I can handle my pains but for people who don’t think you can I know you can I pray every night for god to give strength to those who are struggling. We are all brothers and sisters and unfortunately we have to feel pain to make us feel not just happiness but everything else. Without pain and struggle we wouldn’t know the true beauty of anything and could never know happiness. Wonderful song thank you! Everything will be alright! Feeling so deeply is a blessing and a curse.
Thank you for your words brother! Means a lot to read this.
We’re all in this together my man
Indeed...
I'm blown away, this is incredible.
really great song
One of the best, most genuine and emotion-filled songs I've heard in a long time and it only has 1.6 million views. What a shame.
Love
Touched my heart, thank you for this gift
This music deserves a lot of millions views..
so raw, so soulful. Beautiful.
This man and his music are something else!
Thank you for all your emotions/efforts you pour into your music, you are very special and so is your music.
Hope life’s treating you well!
Wonderful. Cheers from Texas!
Man. What a voice!!!
How the hell have I not heard this? I'm speechless!
Wonderful, now that's real music. Thank you, Foy!
Thank you with your voice and words........
Love this song. It makes me think of what my brother would say to me from the other side. I lost him in april 2017 and these are his words.
What a song of hurt and hope and to know we should all lean on one another help each other cope
This is a message to all my loved friends and family, with all my love, to anyone that is struggling with the painful things we endure, I know your pain,love , MAP
Masterpiece, what an absolute beauty of a song.
Wow. Foy, if you had any idea just how much your music is helping me get through right now. I am going through things that, I am told, most would have killed themselves by now. This is so calming and soothing. I hope you never have to understand what I mean, but even if you had a small glimpse, I know you would know you are where you belong. I am truly grateful for this music and hearing your passion. I hope for you, the same peace and calm I am able to feel when listening to your music. Beautiful just does not do it justice to describe.
I agree. he is incredible. keep on listening!
Hope You're ok Kathryn!!!!
Jon Hodgkin thank you. I wish I could say that I am, but in all reality, I'm not. I am dying, and this helps me get through the pain.
Well you have a friend in me :)
I hope you find peace
Haven't heard this in a while. Still gives me goosebumps
my eyes swelled a little bit coz of this song
the feeling in this rendition is infectious, back to my guitar!
I sent this song to my life long friend who was dying of pancreatic cancer. We spent many years jamming together amongst other things. He passed away on January 5 2019 I miss him. I will see you soon my brother and join you in that band up in the sky. I love you man
Pure Genius, i've just discovered your music Foy, and I love it, fantastic, this song has touched a deep cord in my soul.
You just changed my world.
I so needed this song to day,
Saaaame.
Thank you for your contribution to the world! It’s a better place for having you in it! Love from Canada !!!!!
There is this strong attraction of obsessively needing to listen to this song over and over again. This version is divine. Emotionally, musically, vocally and filmically. It's filling something that I actually need to fill in myself... I know... but Foy is doing it for me for a while until I'm ready. Thank you for that! I'm happy the craftmanship hasn't died out yet. You give me hope. Go on brave man :)
the voice still turn on in my head , is heavenly.
Just discovered you...so absolutely my current obsession!!!
I had the opportunity to see Foy this past Thursday for the first time. It was an amazing show in a small venue.He played this song on guitar, I wish he had performed this song on piano, it just hits different
Wow man, struck a heart note with that one. Serious feels!!!
Real music, real talent. Nuff said
Love this acoustic version ❤️
I had never heard of him. This song has made me a fan!
Why haven't I heard of you?
My new favorite!
Simply beautiful.
