I want to leave a comment but I can't put together any combination of words that is worthy of this beautiful expression of pain. Thank you K Flay ,you are truly a talented gift to the world .
This song is my life. It all hits home. My dad was an alcoholic, who abandoned me. He died a few months ago and the pain continues to linger on. Keep writing with your heart, you have an amazing talent!
Devyn Amonette What? Are you a troll? Grow up. She sings about real life. Please explain your comment. And, Rudy, much love to you. We all need to care and support each other.
Both of my dads have died. One was an alcoholic that died when I was 19. Not of alcohol but just suddenly in a car wreck. My other dad died when I was 16. This song means so much to me. Thank you for writing from your soul.
This so extremely rare to be able see exactly where an artist you currently love started from. I hope a young kid who just got a guitar, bass, keyboard, drum set or whatever instrument during the COVID-19 pandemic of 2020-2021 will see this video and be inspired to start making their own music. No one just wakes up making incredible hit songs that are radio ready. Keep writing, keep practicing, record with whatever you have available, teach yourself another instrument, get your friends who have instruments and just jam!!! Just plug in and go for it man. That's where the magic happens anyways. You'll long for those first days even once you're playing the bigger stages, I promise. Very cool K. Great to see how much you've progressed over the years!!!
I've been listening for about two years now, but I never came across this song. I was raised in a similar situation until my father passed away in 2006 so this song kind of sits on me, much love for doing what you do.
After a whole day of listening to all your music on RUclips.. I'm convinced you're the greatest musical artist of all time.. You deserve that much which probably still doesn't make up for all your pain and suffering.. Just know that you're the greatest!! Sorry I left you crying in the streets of San Francisco
I signed in for this. So very nice. Sad too. I will admit it brought tears. 5/5 and so many more stars. Stars shine bright for a long time and I see a future for you. Your legacy will ensure a positive life for a lot of people on this planet. Or maybe I'm a dreamer.
That was something very special... Only just discovered K.Flay and i'm seriously pissed when i see that this was posted in Nov 2009. That's nearly 3 years of my life without this woman in it! I need to make up for lost time.
I've related this song to my mom for a long time, but she died last year, and now this hits home even more now. I love your music, especially the emotional stuff.
This is AMAZING!! Im so in love with her music and didn't think I could like it any more than I do till I heard this song. it makes my heart melt ive listened to it over and over just know that you make a difference in peoples lives! its been a long time since music made me feel this way and im thankful for it.
I really liked this song, the words so poignant, like I could see into a piece of your heart, your flow the cadence of your voice and the melodious loop carry on~ it's easy to tell you are a true artist, thanks for sharing
I am so glad i found you. To me you are so amazing. I love your songs. I just love everything about you. I cant really describe how i feel but man, you are talented. You inspire me.
Exceptional...collossal cutie...wicked woahman woyah. I dream of a day the industry lifts such artisty to recognize the genuine crown of art. Fuck Jay Z...fuck Rick Ross...god damn formula flagrantly fake bullshit. Good 4 u girl...
She’s coming to Detroit i won’t miss it for anything been listening to u kflay since 2014 I fucking love you it’s a certain feeling that feels like home thank you for keeping it up and keeping it raw & real
This is beautiful! I dont know how old this channel is... But i am happy to see your talent is being recognized today in a BIG WAY. You are incredible! Thanks for your words 😘
I have to say to actually right and get to play and record a strong and yet within the heart and soul of a great load such as this you will and should be a big influence and an inspiration to those that has and have lived through this to actually full fill to take on and press the thought of singing this and yet to fighting to right this song was probably a battle within your self but an amazing out come and i say that you ate and always will be an inspiration to the world within and amongst us all how amazing and wonderful. You ate amazing and just have to say i love all of your work and songs you sing thank you love and sing on girl. Clinton LaMar Rupp. You are amazing !!!!!
I can totally relate to your relationship with your dad. Props for doing this song acoustic, it's that much more personal and I love that you post the lyrics for people like me who will go read them just to double check what I heard. I love your poetic rhythm and I'm honestly intrigued by your every word. I loved Foxy, Lil Kim, Missy heehee & Even Nicki (yup. Shes a notch below Lil kim ;).. I could go on, point being there are a lot of females who try to rap and don't make sense, but you tear s
ViNcEnT RoSs stfu about how she looks. Would you tell a guy you like his moustache? Quit basing a woman on her looks and listen to the talent. It makes me sad that if k flay was 350 lbs we wouldn't have heard of her. How much creativity and genius have we lost because it didn't inhabit the right make and model?
@@patrickthomas9909 "listen to the talent" their first words were literally "sounds great" lol...And I would totally tell a guy I like his moustache what's wrong with that? >.>
Havn't actualyl watched the video yet.. nice that you have this up, such a good song, from way back! (I still can't understand why so much of your music isn't availiable, it's all so good!)
Beauty, talent and (if you listen to her other songs) humor.....this gem has it all:-9 I really hope her music career takes her right to the top because she would be a fresh sound in a stale growing environment:-)
The song made me cry . I totally feel everything you're talking about I grew up your by you and my dad died of alcoholism the and it really messed with me for my whole life to this day. I love that you wrote a song about it to get it out of you I think it's awesome and it helps me too!
