16 years ago my uncle was murdered. He was close in age so he was more like my big brother. For my birthday in August my aunt used some of his life insurance to get me a guitar as his final gift to me. Terra Naomi posted this song shortly after and it brought me to tears when I heard it. First song I learned to play on a guitar and I played it for so many for years as I slowly spiraled into a drug fueled nightmare. Been sober nearly 10 years now but I still come back here from time to time to remember my tios last gift to me. I still play this song for my family and my son every chance I get. Thank you for sharing this beautiful rendition with us Terra. I'm so grateful for you
Terra, the way Feeling flows through you when you sing is unmatched and indescribable. It's like you're a musical medium, a Channel to a emotional universe parallel to our own. A beautiful few seconds after you stop singing. You, and we, need to simply rest, and absorb what has just happened.
You really pierced me in the heart, before you even began to sing I could feel the emotion in that room. It's immediately obvious how deeply you connected to this song and its many meanings. Cried like I haven't for a long time. Thank you.
I think you were one of the first people I ever followed on RUclips. This is a hauntingly beautiful cover. It's great to see you're still going strong :)
What's truly great about your performances is the emotional journey that you show, like all great performers you are living the song as you sing it, like pavarotti, who put heart and soul into every word...
Started this video admiring the singer's nicely toned arms, gorgeous face, and restraint in execution. Finished it missing all the people I love, wondering when the last time I saw each of them was.
Haunting and beautiful. Your singing gives my emotions such a work out. One voice and one guitar, you are such a natural talent. I'm thankful for your music! A true artist! :) I read other people's comments on your videos, it must feel so good to see the positive impact your music has had on so many! Thank you Terra!
of course one interpretation is that the song is about using drugs to overcome pain, and to bring one in closer contact with the memory of a lost loved one -- but it could be a reference to any substitute one finds to ease the pain. she sings this song more sincerely than any other artist. she's amazing. truly amazing.
I'm watching this again today after I don't know how many years.. I still play this song and think of my mother. She passed away 4 years ago and I'm sure my dad felt this before she passed away. He used to take her to the doctors and give her the medication every day. After she passed away we both were broken and more so him. It's all empty now without her. Every time I listen to this song.. I think of my father.. What he was going through every day when she was unwell. This line.. The drugs don't work anymore.. It might mean something else in the song.. But I take the drugs as meds here for my mom and how my father must have felt. He and me.. We're here now.. Feel empty.. We miss her. Its her birthday on 13th May.. Happy birthday mom.. We love you
Amey Thakur happy birthday and so much love to your mom. I’m so sorry, I can only imagine how hard it must be to live without her, especially around her bday and Mother’s Day. This song was written about cancer, actually, at least that’s what I was told. I hope you are doing ok today. I’m playing live online in a few hours, if you feel like coming by. Twitch.tv/terranaomi If you do come by, let me know in the chat, and I’ll play this for you. Lots of love ♥️
@@TerraNaomi Hey Terra Naomi, thank you for this. It means alot. You're very talented and a beautiful person. I'll try and be there when you're live on twitch, might not be able to because it's already 2 am here. But thank you for replying and thank you for your kind words. I guess this song means alot to both of us. I'm glad I could share this with you. Thank you ❤️
Amey Thakur I’ll look for you at another live stream sometime! I’m playing Weds at 1pm PDT and Friday at 11am PDT! Just remind me of your name on here, and I’ll play the song for you whenever you can join us ♥️♥️♥️
Everytime my brother relapses and/or ends up back in prison I come back to this cover..... so I've listened to it a lot. You capture the true sadness of the song and you sing how I feel. It's hauntingly beautiful.
Really 'in love'with your music, your voice, your covers.... Waitin' for your cds, here, in a lost corner of Spain. Love,go on, you're really good Iria
This song means so much for me, i've never heard a good cover of it but i can feel every word you sing in my heart, i loved it, absolutely loved it. You're amazing. Thank you.
I absolutely loved this song when it was released and your cover done this song real justice. I have just stumbled across your video's today and I am a new fan of yours.
💙 One of the first covers I saw of yours. Familiar with the verve but you sank this song deeper than I thought possible and thanks to you The very first song I learned to play. Hope you're well out there. Im sober and happy now sending you the best!
Jon Fig wow!! Thanks for sharing all that. I’m well, yes, and I’m so happy to hear about your sobriety! If you’re around, come by twitch.tv/terranaomi today at 4pm PDT! I’ll play it for you live! 😊
I find this is so amazing! You really got it... i have no words to say how grateful i am to have found you singing this. I do feel the words and that is very important in such lyrics. Keep on.. i know that you are destined for something great..
I haven't seen this in about 10 years and forgot how much I loved it.
♥️♥️♥️
same happend to me just now! Best version of this out there apart from RA himself of course =)

This is the most emotional, raw, best version of this song I have heard
Thank you ♥️♥️♥️
@@TerraNaomi im glad you still see comments from these old videos of yours :) i ditto chelsea.
My arse.
Nothing could have properly prepared me for this. Excuse me while I take a day off work to smoke bowls and watch all of your videos.
Bless.
I've been clean for four days now, your voice singing this song convinced me not to relapse again.
Still makes me emotional, six years later.
I know your version about for 5 years or so. I can't believe the counter.
It is one of the best pieces of music/performance/feeling I know. Thank you.
You Terra are extremely gifted, this is just pure Heaven to listen to, goosebumps all the way through your lovely performance.
My god what a voice.
Thank you ✨💖✨
The amount of sentiment... It always brings me to my knees crying like there's no tomorrow.

breathtaking
So glad I favourited this so I can keep coming back :) Great job!
Terra posted this in 2008 and it's 2018 and I am still coming back to watch this. Pure talent.
The Mark Craig thanks so much, Mark! I can’t believe it was 10 years ago!!! Wow.
You're welcome Terra. 10 talented, glorious years of you sharing covers and originals with the viewers. Thank you Terra!
In 2019 I am still watching this actually this is the first time for me
About to turn 2023 guys but I'm in love with this cover dude and her voice is so nostalgic ❤️❤️
Gorgeous. This is my favorite cover of this song.
one of my favorite songs....its very special to me....and you nailed it completely...my favorite version by far...i'm crying
Fantastic. Amazing vocal range and a true pleasure to listen to 👏👏
Wow!!!!! That is simply beautiful, so much emotion and what a fantastic voice. You are one very very talented lady! Loved it!!!
You really pierced me in the heart, before you even began to sing I could feel the emotion in that room. It's immediately obvious how deeply you connected to this song and its many meanings.
Cried like I haven't for a long time. Thank you.
I'm glad it moved you....I just posted a new song, it's also really emotional, you might like it.... ruclips.net/video/B3qbWccFePE/видео.html
I think you were one of the first people I ever followed on RUclips. This is a hauntingly beautiful cover. It's great to see you're still going strong :)
Thank you!! I took a little break, but now I'm back :)) Happy you're still listening!
omg. the song is just finishing, and seriously, i have goosebumps right now. no joke.
that was INCREDIBLE.
I am totally blown away! Your voice and guitar playing are incredible. I will definitely support your site. Don't ever give up that talent.
What's truly great about your performances is the emotional journey that you show, like all great performers you are living the song as you sing it, like pavarotti, who put heart and soul into every word...
THAT WAS AMAZING!
I never cry, but this song has brought me to tears. Thank you for sharing your beautiful voice.
Started this video admiring the singer's nicely toned arms, gorgeous face, and restraint in execution. Finished it missing all the people I love, wondering when the last time I saw each of them was.
Omg. Why am I just discovering this now? Probably one of the best versions of this song I've heard.
a sadder version of a sad song...!!
You mean, with all respect to The Verve; a less psychedelic approach with light at the end of the tunnel...
Haunting and beautiful. Your singing gives my emotions such a work out. One voice and one guitar, you are such a natural talent. I'm thankful for your music! A true artist! :) I read other people's comments on your videos, it must feel so good to see the positive impact your music has had on so many! Thank you Terra!
Tom Y. Thanks so much, Tom ♥️
Very touching. On some deep personal level.
The raw emotion of this song is amazing. I can feel the utter heartbreak in your voice through every beautiful tone... absolutely breathtaking
of course one interpretation is that the song is about using drugs to overcome pain, and to bring one in closer contact with the memory of a lost loved one -- but it could be a reference to any substitute one finds to ease the pain. she sings this song more sincerely than any other artist. she's amazing. truly amazing.
I saw this the year you uploaded it.. and I always come back every few years. Love this cover. I always think about it when I hear the original
the song is like that, and it's one of the most amazing songs in history, and this is a very good cover of it.
The best cover ever ❤
Love the voice, the song, the sound. Girl really shows her gifts!
Thank you!
great cover Terra!
like the nice enclosed surrounding you have for the performance - the mood in the room helps bring out the song!
Thats just amazing!! Thank you for sharing. It moved me
Thank you for listening! Just posted a new song a few days ago: ruclips.net/video/B3qbWccFePE/видео.html Love to know what you think about it....
Time stopped when i listened to you sing. I am so lucky to have come across the video. Thank you.
Very nice! I liked this version of yours very much.
Your crazy!!! How could this be more perfect!!?!!
This is one of the best covers ever!! Just my opinion!
I remember when you came to play in my high school in Perugia in 2009... priceless!
very emotive and GREAT JOB WITH THE VIDEO.....your camera movements and framing totally make the most out of the performance!!! SUPER
Naomi, that's just fantastic...never heard such a cover, such a voice...congrats...
