I am a single dad who raised my daughter on my own from the day she was born. This song makes me cry every time I hear it. It's not just a 'mom thing.' Dads feel this way, too.
Mathi 24 I agree I think that Amanda should've played rapunzel in Into The Woods, because I think Streep and the actress that played rapunzel didn't have as believable chemistry with each other. I think Amanda would've been the perfect fit :)
I don´t have anything like that with my mother, but I have it with my daughter and this song makes my cry every time, but not out of a feeling of being hurt or having missed something important. I only think of myself as the mother in this. I´m happy that I was a better mother than I had myself and I could give her what I would have needed myself.
i wish i could regret all the times i made my mum sad/angry but her response was to hit me a bunch of times until i'd cry and she'd never feel bad or apologise because she thought i deserved it for making her angry. my dad only ever hit me once and he apologised for weeks for making me cry. wish i could say the same for my mum lol. she kicked me out when i was 14 and i moved in with my dad. best decision she ever made
@@becsandus im sorry to hear that cherish you father even more doing his best. You’re loved more than you know. Not everybody is fit to be a parent and you deserved none of what you got
I was crying my eyes out in the cinema when I watched this, and my girlfriend at the time made fun of me. I told her that I always wanted a daughter, and that I felt this song in my entire self. Last month, after 11 years of marriage our first child was born and it's a beautiful daughter.
Enjoy every second, my daughter, my best friend is 21 now, she’s planning to try for her own baby next year, a whole new chapter for us all, I can’t wait. ☺️
When I listen to this, I cry. Not even especially because of my mum or the idea of having children on day but simply because the concept of time comes to mind so vividly
I know!!!!! I'm a 40 year old war veteran and I cry every time I watch this shit!! What the hell is wrong with me??? My little girl is never marrying anyone that's for sure he he he :0)
+Morten Christensen it just shows how this effects everyone of all ages and all situations because it is about the people you love the most which can break anyone's heart and it's about time as well which also makes all people feel a bit emotional. Hooray for abba and for Meryl Streep and Amanda seyfried hey!
I used to watch Mamma mia with my mom and cry like a river when i watch this scene while hugging my mom like a baby, i told her to please sing this on my wedding day someday and she said she wanted to. But now she's already passed away last february and i really miss her. It's hurt to hear this song and the one in mamma mia 2 "my love ,my life" When donna in the movie is already passed away too. But i really love this movie to try not to watch it. I miss you. And I love you mom..
l love you @Panda_coffee and my boss working in the restaurant during a quiet spell used to sing this together...unknown to usm the customers loved it !
I'm lucky because my mom and I are like Donna and Sophie, which is why this song hits me every time, I think back at all the memories and I feel like I haven't spent enough time with her, even though we are always together
This hurts in a very specific way when you've grown up with this movie and you just realized what this scene actually means and what the song is about so you mourn over your childhood passing by+ plus your name is Sofija and your mother is Meryl's look-alike
When they sing "sometimes I wish that I could freeze the picture" is by far the most powerful part of the song. It really captures the bittersweet melancholic feeling very well.
Stefan Bain I too am a single parent of a 20 yewr old son who I raised alone. The hardest thing about being an only parent of an only child is when they leave home for the first time. It's like okay now what? The words to this song ring so true. You wonder where and how the time went so fast. But I wouldn't trade it for the world. He is and always will be the best thing that happened to me. Happy holidays and thanks for listening
Stefan Bain ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ well done for all you have done it’s a hard job been a single parent as ino iv been there for my daughter 6 years alone and this post is the best I have seen I hope your daughter is proud to have a wonderful daddy like you she will always no that she has you
You cry harder at this when your mom was never emotionally available for you. Never showed the slightest affection or never loved you like she loves your sibling. If I ever become a mom, I'll love my child and never make them feel abandoned. I'll give them the affection that I always longed for from my mother.
This song gets me each time I hear it. I am a 55yo guy from Ireland. Watched this musical with my Mam so many times.In Nov 2010, my mam died from cancer..in my arms.. It is a moment I will treasure and remember all my life.Now I watch Mamma Mia musical all alone and just cry through all this song..Love you Mam..Always. xxxx
AWWWW , I Am Really Truly Sorry About Your Loss , God Bless && Jesus Bless You && Your Family . Remember You're In God's && Jesus Hands I Am Really Truly Sorry , Love Ya.
definitely one of the best and most heartwarming scenes with an equally great song. Meryl and Amanda did so well, i can't express enough, the amount of emotions i see in their acting. i always come back to Mamma Mia, my literal comfort movie :')
didn't knew the song till i got the Musical CD years ago, and i grew up with ABBA due to my mums old records, but this song makes me cry over and over again! saw the musical with my mum and we both cried in this song. i would say Thank you for the music is my favorite song of ABBA earlier. now it's tie with this one!
I'm going to university this year. And I can't imagine how painful it's gonna be. I'm still a baby I don't wanna be away from my parents and my brother
My mom died in my arms this year from a devastating cancer.. specifically 10 months ago. Many years ago I listened to this song and saw how much she cried.. our love was so special and unique. Its incredible how these kind of songs can bring us so beautiful and vivid memories. Love u mom ♡
Natalia Sanhueza My mother died almost exactly 9 months ago (April of 2016), she had a hearth attak. I was able to bring her back, but just for a minute and then she was gone. She died in my arms. I was (and still am) destroyed, devastated. She was probably my only (best-best) friend that I ever had (and I'm a guy, I know it's lame but still). Sorry for your loss, may your mother rest in peace!
I have a good relationship with my mother, and a crippling fear of time passing, due to different things that happened in our lives. I just keep being afraid of losing her, and losing the opportunity of making new memories with her. This song makes me sob, every time I hear it
CAROL HIRD Hey Carol! Im sorry for your loss. A aunt second degrees died with 52 years on 30 may 2018. I didn‘t see her often, but her dead let me think over my life. She had a daughter with 22 years, like me. I hope, my englisch is right, because i‘m from Austria. Lg
Well mum, tomorrow is the big day. Dad thinks that I'm too young but I'm 23 and I know you two got married younger than that. You would love him I'm sure, dad likes him so that's a step. He treats me so good and I absolutely adore him, he makes me happy and I know that's what you wanted for me. I wished you were here with me to remind me everything I need to remember and step in when I inevitably forget something, you know how bad of a planner I am, specially when I'm nervous. I chose a princess gown, like the ones you liked when we watched say yes to the dress together. I can't believe you weren't there to give me your opinion. Since I got engaged I couldn't stop thinking about this scene and how we would watch it and cry together every single time. I still remember the last time we did, when we already knew we wouldn't get to have this moment. It's been 8 years now, time truly flies. I still miss you every single day, I didn't say it much to you but I love you, I really do. Tomorrow when dad walks me down the aisle I will be thinking about you and how you would be bailing your eyes out as you watched your little girl become a woman, that's something I got from you. You will forever be in my heart and I'll tell my kids what a wonderful grandma they had. I wanna name my first daughter after you, and my fiance agrees. I just hope that when the time comes I am half as a good mother as you were, always caring and loving, raising me to be the person I am today. I always try to be kind like you taught me but still remain strong and confident. Don't worry mum you did your job amazingly well, I know that was always you biggest concern. I know you would have been so proud of me, I can't believe the day has come so soon. I know it will be the best day of my life cause he couldn't be more sweet or funny or thoughtful. But I know it would be better if you were by my side. With all the love on the world, Your little princess
i sobbed reading this comment...i’m deeply sorry for your loss and such beautiful words to your mother, she will be so proud of you watching from up above :)
I’m sobbing right now...wow iI bet your mom must be so proud of you! She’s watching over you for sure and I’m so very sorry for your loss she sounds like an amazing mother
I was raised by a single mother and this song tears my heart every time I hear it. She developed Alzheimers and I was her caregiver for ten of the twelve years. I was there by her side on her last night and into her last day. I wouldn't leave her side until my sister finally told me to go get something to eat. October will be 6 years and believe me, it doesn't get any easier!
listening to this alone in my dorm. im in college now and i just have so much regrets of not enjoying our time together. i feel so homesick and it’s hard being away from her. sometimes i don’t know if i can do this but i want to be brave and get my degree to show her that all her hard work was for something. love you mommy and i dedicate this song to you
Oh baby girl, I'm a mom with daughters ur age. I can imagine ur sadness & homesickness😢. Don't regret, ur mom loves u regardless. Focus & work on ur degree, before u know it, u'll be celebrating with ur mom soon. Make her proud ❤
I am here crying like a baby missing my mum.. I am pregnant with a baby girl can't wait to meet her and give her all the love in the world. Love you mum..
I miss my mom. Not because she's not there, but because both of us have changed so much in recent years that we don't have the same relationship anymore. I miss the mom I used to love some years ago and I miss really loving her at all...
Been nearly 2 years no contact it never gets any easier 😔 but I know she is bad for me and I have to follow what is right in my heart, all of you doing no contact are so brave and strong I have so much respect for you all xxx
I relate to this more than any of the other comments, as sweet as they are. I do have a mother, and we see each other, but I don't feel like I can be open with her. I don't feel accepted by her, especially in the last few months/year.
It was night before my wedding and me and my mom were rewatching Mamma Mia together. To say that we bawled our eyes out to this song would be an understatement. One of my favourite memories, this song holds very special place in my heart. ❤
I have no idea why I torture myself with this song even knowing what listening to will do to me. My mom passed away the night I first watched this movie. As I listened to this song, she was slipping through my fingers. When I listen to this, more often than not I turn back into the little girl that I was that fateful night, waiting for her mom to get home from the hospital. Still, there is that old melancholy feeling and although I'm not religious, I know my mom is with me whenever I listen to this song. Te amo, mama.
I got married recently, and after a relatively calm morning, my mother started humming this as she was putting my veil in, and I just broke down! Nothing like mama love
it's 1 a.m. right now and im probably having a anxiety crisis, this song reminds me of my mom so bad, she's just sleeping but listening to this makes me cry so much just imagining living without her someday, this simply hurts and breaks my heart in a million pieces
Lyrics School bag in hand she leaves home in the early morning,waving goodbye with an absent-minded smile.I watch her go with a surge of that well known sadness and I have to sit down for a while. The feeling that I’m losing her forever and really without entering her world I’m glad whenever I can share her laughter,that funny little girl. Chorus Slipping through my fingers all the time I try to capture every minute the feeling in it slipping through my fingers all the time do I really see what’s in her mind each time I think I’m close to knowing she keeps on growing slipping through my fingers all the time. Sleep in our eyes her and me at the breakfast table barely awake, I let precious time go by, then when she’s gone there’s that odd melancholy feeling and that sense of guilt I can’t deny. What happened to those wonderful adventures the places I have planned for us to go some of that we did but most we didn’t and why I just don’t know. Chorus Slipping through my fingers all the time I try to capture every minute the feeling in it slipping through my fingers all the time do I really see what’s in her mind each time I think I’m close to knowing she keeps on growing slipping through my fingers all the time. Both Sometimes I wish that I could freeze the picture,and save it from the funny tricks of time slipping through my fingers!!!!!! School bag in hand she leaves home in the early morning waving goodbye with an absent-minded smile... Plz like this took me forever!😅
I sat in the cinema watching this film all on my own at 5months pregnant. Sat and knew there and then that I was having a girl. She was born early 3 months later but healthy. I cry every time I hear this. She's now 12yrs old and time is quite literally slipping through my fingers, growing up so quickly, I treasure all those times now that we share and laugh together. It won't be long before her friends and her own life leave me behind ( as it should) 12yrs of trying for this much wanted baby and now she is 12.......
BBC radio 2 played the ABBA original song the morning my daughter said 'goodbye daddy' as she went off to primary school. Powerfully emotional, I had red eyes walking into the office that day !!
I really love this song and I always cry every time I hear it. But reading the comments here brings this to a new level. I feel so so sorry for all the kids/adults who lost their mom and for all the moms who lost their kids. When I read these things all I want to do is call my mom and thank her for everything she ever did for me. And I am unbelievable thankful that I still have her by my side. So all the love to the daughters and moms and sons and everybody who has gone through a terrible time because they lost each other. ❤
katharina hartmann it reminds me of all those died in London in 1940 I’m still struggling with it hopefully it doesn’t fade away my love on War has gone Now
I remember watching mama mia with my mom about a month before she passed away. During this scene she started sobing and I didn't really understand at the time, I hugged her and tried to comfort her, I was only about 11. Now I realize that it was because she knew she would never get to have this with me, she'd never see me grow up or get married. Now I'm 18 and enrolling in college. I love you mom, I hope I make you proud.
Once I came home to my mother, watching this movie, all in tears. When I asked her what was wrong she pointed to the tv and said: "Everytime I listen to this song, I remember I have to give you away to the man you love one day. Knowing that I will have to see you grow up faster than I want you to, that you will slip through my fingers and start a family of your own. It just tears me up." Now everytime we watch this movie together we both end up in tears because we love eachother so much!
As soon as I hear the first few notes in the melody I start crying, I cant help it. my mum is still alive and we are still together so I really have nothing to complain about.However we aren't really close and watching this reminds of a bond that ill never have with her but reminds me of the one I used to have with my grandad we used to watch this movie on repeat together and we used to sing this song to each other, I miss him . hopefully I will be able to share that amazing feeling and that bond with my own kids and hopefully my grandkids if I'm lucky enough to be blessed with them :( x
this film came out the year my mum passed away, I was only 4 when she passed so I don’t remember it but my nana always tells me how this was her favourite film, she was such a social butterfly and she had such an amazing life and I am so grateful that she was able to see Mamma Mia before she passed, this film holds a special place in my heart. I love you mum more and more everyday
The casting team did a really great job. I can't imagine anyone else playing the role of Donna the way Meryl does. Also in Mamma Mia 2, I absolutely loved Lily James' work. She captured Donna's free and ambitious personality perfectly.
My daughter is seven and I've listened to this a couple if times a year since the day she was born. Never, not once, have I made it through without crying.
I always sing this song to my mom. It's our song. I want to play this song at my wedding reception when I dance with my mom because there's no one else I'd rather dance with. This song means so much to me and her. She raised me alone for a large part of my life at such a young age and honestly I always cry when watching this musical tbh. This is a huge part of my life.
It is the only song that makes me cry each time i hear it. My mother won't see me grow up or married (she died when i was in high school) but i will always feel her love. I will always remember her words..."I only live for my children"... I love you mom! I hope i make you proud!
My mom used to say that she was never going to cry whenever I would go through major events in my life. I used to think that she didn't love me at all that is until I graduated high school. I remember waking up at 4 in the morning hearing a weird noise in the living room I looked and I her holding the onesie i wore the day she brought me home. She was crying and talking to herself about how she couldn't believe her little baby was graduating. I went back to sleep and I woke up when my alarm ring and she was acting like she usually did. I knew she was lying :)
One of the most touching, beautiful moments in the film. Just perfect in every way. And when that guitar kicks in, I just lose all my composure, that's too beautiful.
I never had a good relationship with my mother, she never gave me that mother's love. Now I have many psychological problems generated by lack of affection. This song makes me cry because I grew up without love, very very necessary. I hope and wish that someone can give me that love, someday
My mum didn't create a bond with me when I was young and now it's to late I've grown up and my parents wonder why I don't spend time with them but it's because I see them as the people who give me a home and nothing else.
Saoirse O'Reilly You expressed it in another way but I feel very identified. I hope you have obtained that affection through other people, for example with friends. Because when a men/women grows up without affection, then he/she becomes a cold person, (the most) Thanks for your comment, it doesn't make me feel so alone
Happens, whilst not defending 'bad parenting' trying to understand that their experiences growing up conditioned them as well and if we can be 'bigger' by accepting and forgiving it'll be not only be better for ourselves but for out children to have to have a richer experience growing up..
This was my mother's favorite movie, I cry without fail Everytime I watch it. I wonder if she ever knew how much it would mean to me when she is gone😭 I miss you mom we didn't get enough time together
Bree Crawford i was considering going to watch it again in the cinema just because it’s only there for so long, but idk if i can walk out crying again! 😂😂
yesterday one week ago, I got to meet meryl at the London Film Festival amd lord she looked stunning. Her arival was so nice. She went outta the car and waved and blowed kisses to her fans. She is seriously one of the most polite, amazing and beautiful performer on this earth, I tell you that.
my mom and i have this type of relationship. she’s really bad sick now and has anywhere from 5-10 years to live. i’m crying bc she’s my best friend and i can’t imagine life on earth without her ☹️
Same here, my mom was depresses and we were listening to this song and she looked at me and said "this is how i will be when you get married".. she wont have to worry about that because im not getting married, ever
I'm a mom, my kid is only two, yet I couldn't help but cry everytime I hear this song/see this scene.... We want them to be ours forever, but we can't, really. We have to let them go. But that doesn't mean stop loving them
I think I was about 14 a day before my 15th birthday and i heard my mom crying in the middle of the night listening to this song she and my dad were talking about how I'm already growing up and that someday I'm going to leave to get married. That really messed me up 😭😭 I'm 20 now and I'm still living with my mom helping her with everything and this song just made me remember that memory. 😭
i am a mother too,i have so much fears in life but most of all is to see my daughters leaving us,in a right time,sometimes at night i cried to face this fears,my daughters are 17 and 16,pain is tearing me slowly to face the reality.if only i could stop the time where i can still hold them and carry them in my two bare hands,there is no measure between a love of a mother to her children
I know Meryl Streep probably won't see this but im glad to have amazing actresses like her, I wish I could have the opportunity to meet her she has made my life a happier one because of this movie its brought me closer to my mom. And I understand im not the only one she's touched. God bless you Meryl Streep.
Schoolbag in hand, she leaves home in the early morning Waving goodbye with an absent-minded smile I watch her go with a surge of that well known sadness And I have to sit down for a while The feeling that I'm losing her forever And without really entering her world I'm glad whenever I can share her laughter That funny little girl Slipping through my fingers all the time I try to capture every minute The feeling in it Slipping through my fingers all the time Do I really see what's in her mind Each time I think I'm close to knowing She keeps on growing Slipping through my fingers all the time Sleep in our eyes, her and me at the breakfast table Barely awake I let precious time go by Then when she's gone, there's that odd melancholy feeling And a sense of guilt I can't deny What happened to the wonderful adventures The places I had planned for us to go Well, some of that we did, but most we didn't And why, I just don't know Slipping through my fingers all the time I try to capture every minute The feeling in it Slipping through my fingers all the time Do I really see what's in her mind Each time I think I'm close to knowing She keeps on growing Slipping through my fingers all the time Sometimes I wish that I could freeze the picture And save it from the funny tricks of time Slipping through my fingers all the time Schoolbag in hand, she leaves home in the early morning Waving goodbye with an absent-minded smile.
Today my mum and I watched this and started sobbing, a few days ago I decided to go study abroad and I'm leaving in a month, so watching this made us really emotional.
For all the mothers of this world
works also for dads actually
anicat you are right its the feeling of a mother who is letting her daughter marry
I feel that this will be the mother daughter song for decades to come
Mothers feel like this when her daughter gets married
anicat
Hang on pal ! I'm a dad. I'm welling up !
_This song makes me miss my future children already_
omg yes
me but i don’t want kids 😁
I’m only a kid, I’m not having children for a *little* while
LITERALLY HAHAHAHA IM 19 CRYING OVER A DAUGHTER I DONT HAVE IM STILL SINGLE😭😭😭😭
😌💗
Imagine not crying to this song every time… literally could not be me
Hannah Starke I cry everytime
honestly it gets me every single time
Lmao im crying rn
And also, my love my life. Wrecks me everytime.
Meryl Streep ist amazing, the light, the colour all work together...
Ppl with mommy issues 🤝 Crying to this song🤝 Ppl with a good relationship with their mothers
a good**
Yes
i love my mom to death and i ALWAYS cry liters just thinking about this song
* sad sigh *
Sweet sweet ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I am a single dad who raised my daughter on my own from the day she was born. This song makes me cry every time I hear it. It's not just a 'mom thing.' Dads feel this way, too.
Stefan Bain It is the hearts of all parents.
Kudos for doing all that for your daughter. It's so lovely she has someone to look out for her
You should be proud of yourself, glad people like you still exist!! You're doing great
💞
Agree!I live with my dad and I find it unacceptable of a 21st century society to still think that mother's only have feelings for their kids!
Amanda seyfried is annoyingly perfect. She's the prettiest actress I've seen, she's got the nicest personality and has a gorgeous voice
I know right!?
Haha right! her kid is very lucky to have her genes!
I prefer Meryl
She's gorgeous, inside and out. I hope noone ever made her believe otherwise
@@kkok9666 Amanda said in an interview that she was made fun of in highschool for being "ugly"
I love the chemistry between Meryl Streep and Amanda Seyfried is so beautiful!! They really look like mother and daughter.
Mathi 24 I agree I think that Amanda should've played rapunzel in Into The Woods, because I think Streep and the actress that played rapunzel didn't have as believable chemistry with each other. I think Amanda would've been the perfect fit :)
Mathi 24 casting
To be fair mother Gothel wasn't a good mother so I'm fine with them not having the best chemistry 😂
Em L
Beside Rapunzel's role wasn't that important!
Wait. They’re not?
this hurts when you have a bad relationship with your mother
Idk i kinda wish that me and my mother would have a bond like that
yes
I don´t have anything like that with my mother, but I have it with my daughter and this song makes my cry every time, but not out of a feeling of being hurt or having missed something important. I only think of myself as the mother in this. I´m happy that I was a better mother than I had myself and I could give her what I would have needed myself.
Lol wish I didnt have mommy issues.
yeah i can only imagine having this kind of bond with her
for all the older sister stepping up in their mothers place.
Me, not even because I have a bad mom, just a neglectful one
I’m sobbing right now
@@jeanetten.s.8557 well my mom isnt bad but doesnt have the time for us because of work
I wish I could help my brother more, but it's so complicated
😭♥️
Step 1: watch mamma Mia 1
Step 2: watch mamma Mia 2
Step 3: watch mamma Mia 1 again
Step 4: try to not cry
Step 5: cry...
Lmao 😂
Mumma Mia 2 at the end is deep. 😔
That was so funny I’m cracking up
LMAO *me bawling my eyes out even harder*
Oh yes 😂
This song hurts even more after seeing Mamma Mia 2 and knowing Donna is truly gone forever.
DinoYT right I cried for 20 my minutes straight
It breaks my heart 😢
I know I cried throug b the whole movie!!😢😭
I'm honestly so frustrated that the guys didn't look like they were supposed. I love the original, my favorite all time movie
me too
This makes me regret all the times I made my mother sad, she’d gone through a lot with me
me too.
I regret all the time I spent being mad at her
me too
i wish i could regret all the times i made my mum sad/angry but her response was to hit me a bunch of times until i'd cry and she'd never feel bad or apologise because she thought i deserved it for making her angry. my dad only ever hit me once and he apologised for weeks for making me cry. wish i could say the same for my mum lol. she kicked me out when i was 14 and i moved in with my dad. best decision she ever made
@@becsandus im sorry to hear that cherish you father even more doing his best. You’re loved more than you know. Not everybody is fit to be a parent and you deserved none of what you got
I was crying my eyes out in the cinema when I watched this, and my girlfriend at the time made fun of me. I told her that I always wanted a daughter, and that I felt this song in my entire self. Last month, after 11 years of marriage our first child was born and it's a beautiful daughter.
That is beautiful.. Congratulation 😭
Happy for you mate!
Wonderful, thanx for Sharing!
Did that comment make me cry? Yes
Enjoy every second, my daughter, my best friend is 21 now, she’s planning to try for her own baby next year, a whole new chapter for us all, I can’t wait. ☺️
such beautiful chemistry omg

And I m in the car listening too this and I doubt i’ma cry like I always do when I listen to this song lol

+Morten Christensen it just shows how this effects everyone of all ages and all situations because it is about the people you love the most which can break anyone's heart and it's about time as well which also makes all people feel a bit emotional. Hooray for abba and for Meryl Streep and Amanda seyfried hey!
I used to watch Mamma mia with my mom and cry like a river when i watch this scene while hugging my mom like a baby, i told her to please sing this on my wedding day someday and she said she wanted to. But now she's already passed away last february and i really miss her. It's hurt to hear this song and the one in mamma mia 2 "my love ,my life" When donna in the movie is already passed away too. But i really love this movie to try not to watch it. I miss you. And I love you mom..
Sorry for your loss, she’s looking down on you proud of you
aye bro i love you and hope ur strong, i jus know she is so so so so proud of you
I am so sorry for your loss, she must be so proud of you❤️
Gosh ... i feel you .. my mom and watched this show together now heaven has her ... i know exactly what and how you are feeling
i know im like 10 months late but i understand. i'm so sorry. our moms are watching over us always and they're so proud of us i just know it.
I'm a grown man with no kids, but this song gets me right in the heart. Best I can do is sing it at my cat as she runs away from me at top speed
I was bawling til i see this comment

Yep i actually haven’t seen mine in 8 months lmao
I'm lucky because my mom and I are like Donna and Sophie, which is why this song hits me every time, I think back at all the memories and I feel like I haven't spent enough time with her, even though we are always together
yes :(
Yees maam ✋
I'm not even a mom and i cried
+KutiePie I'm a boy, not even adult one and i cried like a little baby :))))))))
same!!!
+KutiePie Same here as well! I heard this song for the first time while watching the movie in the theatre with my mum. I cried like a child.
same here
+KutiePie I cried & my skin fell off ROFL.
Sophie at 20: ✨marriage ✨
Me at 20: ✨crying during a pandemic✨
Me too
We all are here crying to this song it’s ok 🚊👩🏻🦯
To be fair, Sophie didn’t get married at the end. She and Sky got married in between this movie and the second one.
The divorce rate for people married at 20 is significantly higher than the rate for people married in their late 20s to early 30s. :)
I’m 27 and SAME😔
This hurts in a very specific way when you've grown up with this movie and you just realized what this scene actually means and what the song is about so you mourn over your childhood passing by+ plus your name is Sofija and your mother is Meryl's look-alike
Ya
let's be honest here can anyone even make it through the first three words without bursting into tears cause I certainly cant
i don’t know how people can do it, i start crying at the “we’ve got time” line before the song even starts...
actually no 😭😭😭 it gets me every single time
your pfp is lovely! you have a great smile
HAH i dont I cry after the four first word >:) ✨💪
Neither can I girl 🙈
When they sing "sometimes I wish that I could freeze the picture" is by far the most powerful part of the song. It really captures the bittersweet melancholic feeling very well.
So true
"Will you give me away?"
*SOBBING UNCONTROLLABLY
😅
When they sing in front of the mirror... GOOSEBUMPS
Immediately
Relate so.much nd like yo i was move to tears...very toyching..
I'm a single dad who has raised my daughter on my own from day one. I can only get half way through this video before the tears come.
respect
Stefan Bain cute
Stefan Bain I too am a single parent of a 20 yewr old son who I raised alone. The hardest thing about being an only parent of an only child is when they leave home for the first time. It's like okay now what? The words to this song ring so true. You wonder where and how the time went so fast. But I wouldn't trade it for the world. He is and always will be the best thing that happened to me. Happy holidays and thanks for listening
Stefan Bain ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ well done for all you have done it’s a hard job been a single parent as ino iv been there for my daughter 6 years alone and this post is the best I have seen I hope your daughter is proud to have a wonderful daddy like you she will always no that she has you
❤️❤️
one of the most unknown hit from ABBA and surely one of the best, it's a crying song
Tor mama Mia atriz nome fam Juliana 😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘♥️♥️♥️

Meryl: School ba-
Me: *Bursts into tears
Same here 😭🎶🙏🏼❤
Same.
😂😭
You cry harder at this when your mom was never emotionally available for you. Never showed the slightest affection or never loved you like she loves your sibling.
If I ever become a mom, I'll love my child and never make them feel abandoned.
I'll give them the affection that I always longed for from my mother.
😢
This song gets me each time I hear it. I am a 55yo guy from Ireland. Watched this musical with my Mam so many times.In Nov 2010, my mam died from cancer..in my arms.. It is a moment I will treasure and remember all my life.Now I watch Mamma Mia musical all alone and just cry through all this song..Love you Mam..Always. xxxx
RIP ❤️
What a lovely heart you have!
same to me
AWWWW , I Am Really Truly Sorry About Your Loss , God Bless && Jesus Bless You && Your Family . Remember You're In God's && Jesus Hands I Am Really Truly Sorry , Love Ya.
sending you lots and lots and lots of love
I dont have a good relationship with my mother. This scene always make me cry, wondering how wonderful would it feel to have a mommy like this.
me too..
same
:(
I can relate very much
i just want a mum like this ye i have my stepmum but it’s not the same
"will you give me away?" Cue me crying like a little bitch
Emily Foster me too!
Same here dude.... *sniff sniff* I cry everytime
SO RELATABLE
definitely one of the best and most heartwarming scenes with an equally great song. Meryl and Amanda did so well, i can't express enough, the amount of emotions i see in their acting. i always come back to Mamma Mia, my literal comfort movie :')
I’m glad read you have written…
Same here, Daughter/mother quality time.. 😊
The only song I ever cry too

didn't knew the song till i got the Musical CD years ago, and i grew up with ABBA due to my mums old records, but this song makes me cry over and over again! saw the musical with my mum and we both cried in this song.
i would say Thank you for the music is my favorite song of ABBA earlier. now it's tie with this one!
and my daughter is going to university today………… me crying like a baby
I'm going to university this year. And I can't imagine how painful it's gonna be.
I'm still a baby I don't wanna be away from my parents and my brother

My mom’s face when I was choosing my highschool classes. I WANNA GO BAAAAAACK I WANNA BE A CHILD AGAAAAIN
My mom died in my arms this year from a devastating cancer.. specifically 10 months ago. Many years ago I listened to this song and saw how much she cried.. our love was so special and unique. Its incredible how these kind of songs can bring us so beautiful and vivid memories. Love u mom ♡
Natalia Sanhueza 😢 sorry for your loss ❤️
Natalia Sanhueza R.I.P )': this is a beautiful song
Natalia Sanhueza
My mother died almost exactly 9 months ago (April of 2016), she had a hearth attak. I was able to bring her back, but just for a minute and then she was gone. She died in my arms. I was (and still am) destroyed, devastated. She was probably my only (best-best) friend that I ever had (and I'm a guy, I know it's lame but still).
Sorry for your loss, may your mother rest in peace!
I was honestly in tears reading this comment, sorry for your loss
hmmm
😞
I have a good relationship with my mother, and a crippling fear of time passing, due to different things that happened in our lives. I just keep being afraid of losing her, and losing the opportunity of making new memories with her. This song makes me sob, every time I hear it
Same
I feel much better reading the comments and seeing other people feeling the same things as me
Lost my mum to cancer on 10.11.18 this song tears at my heart strings every time I hear it. RIP MUM.
CAROL HIRD Hey Carol! Im sorry for your loss. A aunt second degrees died with 52 years on 30 may 2018. I didn‘t see her often, but her dead let me think over my life. She had a daughter with 22 years, like me.
I hope, my englisch is right, because i‘m from Austria.
Lg
i am so sorry hun 💓 xx
I know how u feel so is my mum is dying of it
My mum had cancer but she survived. I know the pain of thinking you’re going to lose a loved one. A family friend lost the battle against it
i’m sorry for your loss ❤️
Well mum, tomorrow is the big day. Dad thinks that I'm too young but I'm 23 and I know you two got married younger than that. You would love him I'm sure, dad likes him so that's a step. He treats me so good and I absolutely adore him, he makes me happy and I know that's what you wanted for me. I wished you were here with me to remind me everything I need to remember and step in when I inevitably forget something, you know how bad of a planner I am, specially when I'm nervous. I chose a princess gown, like the ones you liked when we watched say yes to the dress together. I can't believe you weren't there to give me your opinion. Since I got engaged I couldn't stop thinking about this scene and how we would watch it and cry together every single time. I still remember the last time we did, when we already knew we wouldn't get to have this moment. It's been 8 years now, time truly flies. I still miss you every single day, I didn't say it much to you but I love you, I really do. Tomorrow when dad walks me down the aisle I will be thinking about you and how you would be bailing your eyes out as you watched your little girl become a woman, that's something I got from you. You will forever be in my heart and I'll tell my kids what a wonderful grandma they had. I wanna name my first daughter after you, and my fiance agrees. I just hope that when the time comes I am half as a good mother as you were, always caring and loving, raising me to be the person I am today. I always try to be kind like you taught me but still remain strong and confident. Don't worry mum you did your job amazingly well, I know that was always you biggest concern.
I know you would have been so proud of me, I can't believe the day has come so soon. I know it will be the best day of my life cause he couldn't be more sweet or funny or thoughtful. But I know it would be better if you were by my side.
With all the love on the world,
Your little princess
Beautifully expressed... and your Mom would be so incredibly proud of you. Congratulations and best wishes to you.
i sobbed reading this comment...i’m deeply sorry for your loss and such beautiful words to your mother, she will be so proud of you watching from up above :)
I’m crying I’m so happy for you, your mum would be so proud ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I’m sobbing right now...wow iI bet your mom must be so proud of you! She’s watching over you for sure and I’m so very sorry for your loss she sounds like an amazing mother
These two have that relationship that everyone mom and daughter should have.
Kisses A this comment hurts
❤💞❤
I was raised by a single mother and this song tears my heart every time I hear it. She developed Alzheimers and I was her caregiver for ten of the twelve years. I was there by her side on her last night and into her last day. I wouldn't leave her side until my sister finally told me to go get something to eat. October will be 6 years and believe me, it doesn't get any easier!
aw🥺 may Jesus be with you honey ❤️
What beautiful words...Your Mum obviously adored your xx
Sending you sm love ❤
THESE COMMENTS GIVE ME SO MANY FEELS
I could not agree more! 😭❤️
Same
I knew it I am not the only one that cried because of the comments😢😢
Some comments have made me cry so much.
my god exactly. Ow
I can still cry when Sophie goes...”Will you give me a way??” in 2020. GREAT MOVIE!!
changmin0209 haha im watching this also in 2020, about 5 times ONLY a day
One of the only songs that make me tear up
Me too. It always gives me chills and makes me think of my mom..
Tear up? I friggin sob for two hours
Awwww!😊
true story
Dandanz3112
listening to this alone in my dorm. im in college now and i just have so much regrets of not enjoying our time together. i feel so homesick and it’s hard being away from her. sometimes i don’t know if i can do this but i want to be brave and get my degree to show her that all her hard work was for something. love you mommy and i dedicate this song to you
Oh baby girl, I'm a mom with daughters ur age. I can imagine ur sadness & homesickness😢. Don't regret, ur mom loves u regardless. Focus & work on ur degree, before u know it, u'll be celebrating with ur mom soon. Make her proud ❤
I am here crying like a baby missing my mum.. I am pregnant with a baby girl can't wait to meet her and give her all the love in the world. Love you mum..
Ironically I saw this comment 9 months after you posted it
She would be proud of you
Best of luck
Meryl Streep is an exceptional actress and a great singer. Is there anything she can't do?
she's an all around actress.
THREE oscars in her career
You should see her performance from INTO THE WOODS

I miss my mom. Not because she's not there, but because both of us have changed so much in recent years that we don't have the same relationship anymore. I miss the mom I used to love some years ago and I miss really loving her at all...
Juna omg someone who relates to how I’m feeling right now
Exactly how I feel too. I wish her and I were closer
Been nearly 2 years no contact it never gets any easier 😔 but I know she is bad for me and I have to follow what is right in my heart, all of you doing no contact are so brave and strong I have so much respect for you all xxx
I relate to this more than any of the other comments, as sweet as they are. I do have a mother, and we see each other, but I don't feel like I can be open with her. I don't feel accepted by her, especially in the last few months/year.
@@elissalombard7021 and here I thought I was the only one 🙂
It was night before my wedding and me and my mom were rewatching Mamma Mia together. To say that we bawled our eyes out to this song would be an understatement. One of my favourite memories, this song holds very special place in my heart. ❤
I have no idea why I torture myself with this song even knowing what listening to will do to me. My mom passed away the night I first watched this movie. As I listened to this song, she was slipping through my fingers. When I listen to this, more often than not I turn back into the little girl that I was that fateful night, waiting for her mom to get home from the hospital. Still, there is that old melancholy feeling and although I'm not religious, I know my mom is with me whenever I listen to this song. Te amo, mama.
thank you for sharing, I pray for you and your mom's wellbeing
after Mamma Mia 2 this is so much sadder :(
Andrés Navarro omfg i know mamma mia 2 made me cry so much
I'm still crying and I will re watch it this wednesday
Yep😭😭
Really
I got married recently, and after a relatively calm morning, my mother started humming this as she was putting my veil in, and I just broke down! Nothing like mama love
congrats
Very moving :')
HMSharmony10 my mom did the same
it's 1 a.m. right now and im probably having a anxiety crisis, this song reminds me of my mom so bad, she's just sleeping but listening to this makes me cry so much just imagining living without her someday, this simply hurts and breaks my heart in a million pieces
I’m going through the same thing right now 😭 sobbing
6am for me. This song will always make me think of her. ❤️ This is the one of the rare songs that can make me cry
I wish your mom lives a looong happy and healthy life with you :)
❤
I lost my daughter 2 years ago she was 30 and I loved her so much this song brings so many memories back .
i'm so sorry :(
:(...RIP. ..This song is only for your daughter. .
so sorry
Rest in peace im so sorry
I'm sorry, stay strong, she wills always be with you:)

Lyrics
School bag in hand she leaves home in the early morning,waving goodbye with an absent-minded smile.I watch her go with a surge of that well known sadness and I have to sit down for a while.
The feeling that I’m losing her forever and really without entering her world I’m glad whenever I can share her laughter,that funny little girl.
Chorus
Slipping through my fingers all the time I try to capture every minute the feeling in it slipping through my fingers all the time do I really see what’s in her mind each time I think I’m close to knowing she keeps on growing slipping through my fingers all the time.
Sleep in our eyes her and me at the breakfast table barely awake, I let precious time go by, then when she’s gone there’s that odd melancholy feeling and that sense of guilt I can’t deny.
What happened to those wonderful adventures the places I have planned for us to go some of that we did but most we didn’t and why I just don’t know.
Chorus
Slipping through my fingers all the time I try to capture every minute the feeling in it slipping through my fingers all the time do I really see what’s in her mind each time I think I’m close to knowing she keeps on growing slipping through my fingers all the time.
Both
Sometimes I wish that I could freeze the picture,and save it from the funny tricks of time slipping through my fingers!!!!!!
School bag in hand she leaves home in the early morning waving goodbye with an absent-minded smile...
Plz like this took me forever!😅
This is just great, my kids are listening to this and they are not even 10
You can just copy and paste it from the lyrics website 😉😂

I sat in the cinema watching this film all on my own at 5months pregnant. Sat and knew there and then that I was having a girl. She was born early 3 months later but healthy. I cry every time I hear this. She's now 12yrs old and time is quite literally slipping through my fingers, growing up so quickly, I treasure all those times now that we share and laugh together. It won't be long before her friends and her own life leave me behind ( as it should) 12yrs of trying for this much wanted baby and now she is 12.......
Oh my God Meryl stop being such an amazing singer and actress :’(
The first time I saw the movie and listened to this song, tears were running down my cheeks. I love it.
AmandaJuliette it's my favourite movie I love it ♥♡
Anna Ketter
Seriously!
She and Julie Andrews are the best
The best scene in history of cinematography showing mother love
They really look like they could be mother and daughter in real life
Dearra tate so true!!
I have been looking for this comment so I can agree
They look so alike, too....!
Yea really great casting
Dearra tate n
Don't you hate it when someone is cutting onions every time this song plays?
Lol seems like this song can really get to some people
Amanda and Meryl has so much chemistry and the love is real, even after 10 years between movies, LOVE that!-
this song brings very strong feelings even when you're not a parent but a child (a daughter). Even in 2023 it's still so beautiful
BBC radio 2 played the ABBA original song the morning my daughter said 'goodbye daddy' as she went off to primary school. Powerfully emotional, I had red eyes walking into the office that day !!
OMG 😍
I really love this song and I always cry every time I hear it. But reading the comments here brings this to a new level. I feel so so sorry for all the kids/adults who lost their mom and for all the moms who lost their kids. When I read these things all I want to do is call my mom and thank her for everything she ever did for me. And I am unbelievable thankful that I still have her by my side. So all the love to the daughters and moms and sons and everybody who has gone through a terrible time because they lost each other. ❤
❤️❤️❤️

I remember watching mama mia with my mom about a month before she passed away. During this scene she started sobing and I didn't really understand at the time, I hugged her and tried to comfort her, I was only about 11. Now I realize that it was because she knew she would never get to have this with me, she'd never see me grow up or get married. Now I'm 18 and enrolling in college.
I love you mom, I hope I make you proud.
Your history is very sad....I'm so sorry for you
very sorry for your loss
I didn't like what you said because that made me cry so much
She’ll ALWAYS be with you.
Once I came home to my mother, watching this movie, all in tears. When I asked her what was wrong she pointed to the tv and said: "Everytime I listen to this song, I remember I have to give you away to the man you love one day. Knowing that I will have to see you grow up faster than I want you to, that you will slip through my fingers and start a family of your own. It just tears me up."
Now everytime we watch this movie together we both end up in tears because we love eachother so much!
As soon as I hear the first few notes in the melody I start crying, I cant help it. my mum is still alive and we are still together so I really have nothing to complain about.However we aren't really close and watching this reminds of a bond that ill never have with her but reminds me of the one I used to have with my grandad we used to watch this movie on repeat together and we used to sing this song to each other, I miss him . hopefully I will be able to share that amazing feeling and that bond with my own kids and hopefully my grandkids if I'm lucky enough to be blessed with them :( x
Glad I'm not the only one who gets emotional with this
this film came out the year my mum passed away, I was only 4 when she passed so I don’t remember it but my nana always tells me how this was her favourite film, she was such a social butterfly and she had such an amazing life and I am so grateful that she was able to see Mamma Mia before she passed, this film holds a special place in my heart. I love you mum more and more everyday
Cried a little bit while reading this... Just a little bit... 😭
SaMa777 you need a cuddle I bring you a cuddle
Aaaawww you sweet thing 💕
The casting team did a really great job. I can't imagine anyone else playing the role of Donna the way Meryl does.
Also in Mamma Mia 2, I absolutely loved Lily James' work. She captured Donna's free and ambitious personality perfectly.
My daughter is seven and I've listened to this a couple if times a year since the day she was born. Never, not once, have I made it through without crying.
I always sing this song to my mom. It's our song. I want to play this song at my wedding reception when I dance with my mom because there's no one else I'd rather dance with. This song means so much to me and her. She raised me alone for a large part of my life at such a young age and honestly I always cry when watching this musical tbh. This is a huge part of my life.
LizMarie IsAnAsshole yo tambien
I
It is the only song that makes me cry each time i hear it. My mother won't see me grow up or married (she died when i was in high school) but i will always feel her love. I will always remember her words..."I only live for my children"...
I love you mom! I hope i make you proud!
Imagine getting your daughter ready for a wedding that’s actually yours
I keep replaying this song and I’ve been bawling my eyes out for a good 30 minutes
Me rn 😮💨
My mom used to say that she was never going to cry whenever I would go through major events in my life. I used to think that she didn't love me at all that is until I graduated high school. I remember waking up at 4 in the morning hearing a weird noise in the living room I looked and I her holding the onesie i wore the day she brought me home. She was crying and talking to herself about how she couldn't believe her little baby was graduating. I went back to sleep and I woke up when my alarm ring and she was acting like she usually did. I knew she was lying :)
it's really really sad
AliSakurai awww that's so sweet. Nearly brought me to tears ❤️😂🙈

I'm not crying, you are.
EVERY SINGLE TIME
whenever I feel like crying, this music and this video never fails
One of the most touching, beautiful moments in the film. Just perfect in every way. And when that guitar kicks in, I just lose all my composure, that's too beautiful.
SethBlizzard lllll
Sophie was born for this! it was like all the songs were wrote for her. woooo sophie!
I never had a good relationship with my mother, she never gave me that mother's love. Now I have many psychological problems generated by lack of affection. This song makes me cry because I grew up without love, very very necessary. I hope and wish that someone can give me that love, someday
I think you can fill your heart by giving your love to others.
My mum didn't create a bond with me when I was young and now it's to late I've grown up and my parents wonder why I don't spend time with them but it's because I see them as the people who give me a home and nothing else.
Saoirse O'Reilly You expressed it in another way but I feel very identified. I hope you have obtained that affection through other people, for example with friends. Because when a men/women grows up without affection, then he/she becomes a cold person, (the most)
Thanks for your comment, it doesn't make me feel so alone
Happens, whilst not defending 'bad parenting' trying to understand that their experiences growing up conditioned them as well and if we can be 'bigger' by accepting and forgiving it'll be not only be better for ourselves but for out children to have to have a richer experience growing up..
Me too 😢😢😢
This was my mother's favorite movie, I cry without fail Everytime I watch it. I wonder if she ever knew how much it would mean to me when she is gone😭 I miss you mom we didn't get enough time together
who is here after mamma mia here we go again ? :'(
Estefani Avila it hurts so bad to see them together here 😭😫
I need see that movie :(((
Watched it Saturday 18th August and it was amazing loved every second of it, definitely buying it on DVD!
Bree Crawford i was considering going to watch it again in the cinema just because it’s only there for so long, but idk if i can walk out crying again! 😂😂
+Grace but its worth it
Fun fact I sang this for my nanny when she passed. This will forever be my comfort song 😔
Yes nannies and baby sitters are always special
yesterday one week ago, I got to meet meryl at the London Film Festival amd lord she looked stunning. Her arival was so nice. She went outta the car and waved and blowed kisses to her fans. She is seriously one of the most polite, amazing and beautiful performer on this earth, I tell you that.
my mom and i have this type of relationship. she’s really bad sick now and has anywhere from 5-10 years to live. i’m crying bc she’s my best friend and i can’t imagine life on earth without her ☹️
🤍🙏
I'm so sorry for you :( Wishing you and your mother the best
Amanda’s hair is so beautiful, she is literally perfect in every way
I never realized how much my mom actually cared about me until she started crying at this point when we watched it together.
😭
oogislop same here. It made my uncomfortable tho so I went to the bathroom
Same here, my mom was depresses and we were listening to this song and she looked at me and said "this is how i will be when you get married".. she wont have to worry about that because im not getting married, ever
My mum started crying too and told me she wanted my wedding preparation to be exactly like this
I'm a mom, my kid is only two, yet I couldn't help but cry everytime I hear this song/see this scene.... We want them to be ours forever, but we can't, really. We have to let them go. But that doesn't mean stop loving them
How much I wish I had a relationship like this with my mom... When I will be a mom, I want to be like this
Me too😭
I think I was about 14 a day before my 15th birthday and i heard my mom crying in the middle of the night listening to this song she and my dad were talking about how I'm already growing up and that someday I'm going to leave to get married. That really messed me up 😭😭 I'm 20 now and I'm still living with my mom helping her with everything and this song just made me remember that memory. 😭
i am a mother too,i have so much fears in life but most of all is to see my daughters leaving us,in a right time,sometimes at night i cried to face this fears,my daughters are 17 and 16,pain is tearing me slowly to face the reality.if only i could stop the time where i can still hold them and carry them in my two bare hands,there is no measure between a love of a mother to her children
My cutie is with her father since she was 11 and I missed her like crazy.
@@gingmolinaminoza7419 letting them go is love also
I know Meryl Streep probably won't see this but im glad to have amazing actresses like her, I wish I could have the opportunity to meet her she has made my life a happier one because of this movie its brought me closer to my mom. And I understand im not the only one she's touched. God bless you Meryl Streep.
Schoolbag in hand, she leaves home in the early morning
Waving goodbye with an absent-minded smile
I watch her go with a surge of that well known sadness
And I have to sit down for a while
The feeling that I'm losing her forever
And without really entering her world
I'm glad whenever I can share her laughter
That funny little girl
Slipping through my fingers all the time
I try to capture every minute
The feeling in it
Slipping through my fingers all the time
Do I really see what's in her mind
Each time I think I'm close to knowing
She keeps on growing
Slipping through my fingers all the time
Sleep in our eyes, her and me at the breakfast table
Barely awake I let precious time go by
Then when she's gone, there's that odd melancholy feeling
And a sense of guilt I can't deny
What happened to the wonderful adventures
The places I had planned for us to go
Well, some of that we did, but most we didn't
And why, I just don't know
Slipping through my fingers all the time
I try to capture every minute
The feeling in it
Slipping through my fingers all the time
Do I really see what's in her mind
Each time I think I'm close to knowing
She keeps on growing
Slipping through my fingers all the time
Sometimes I wish that I could freeze the picture
And save it from the funny tricks of time
Slipping through my fingers all the time
Schoolbag in hand, she leaves home in the early morning
Waving goodbye with an absent-minded smile.
Stella Fairchild thanks
Stella Fairchild thanks, my mom cried to these lyrics in the movie translated to our language, she felt all the words were meant to her
Thx
Stella Fairchild thx but it’s surprising how I don’t need this cause all the times I have watched and listened to this.😭😢😩
Today my mum and I watched this and started sobbing, a few days ago I decided to go study abroad and I'm leaving in a month, so watching this made us really emotional.
😭
How long are you gone for.😭
poliapolis Wow I might go to Australia soon in 2021
