this song was played at my sons funeral service. Jacob Raul Hernandez. I was the one brought it to his attention and we found it in his music collection after his death. I will always cherish this song and it will always remind me of him. I love you very much my beautiful lad and one day I will see you again. forever and ever your loving father, Dean. x
+JackOfHouse Hugs to you. I played this song a lot after my best friend killed herself. It reminded me of her and I found some peace in it for some reason.
Played this at my dad's funeral. Miss him every day. We used to listen to this in the car together. Made me happy then and makes me happy now; simple as that 💙
I ain't too sure that these are actually the real mother-fuckin' lyrics? I mean, it takes a helluva imagination to go from 'Highlight Of The Day' (which, btw, I've been singing for the past 25 years or so) to 'Nine Night Of Matter' which according to this are the correct words? I ain't buyin' it an' I ain't havin' it! Gonna Wiki it!
same omg the first time I heard it on the radio I quickly went to youtube and typed ''feels like summer rain'' hoping to find it hahaha (spoiler, i didn't)
this song makes me un-willingly sad like no other song has. It reminds me of so many things which I'd rather forget, but somehow I love it all the same and listen to it every day
My mother used to play lesser known old songs like this to me when I was very young and even still in the womb. This song has such a deep meaning and attchment to me and makes me tear up every time with nostalgia.
I have this song on my computer and it's my favorite song. I think this song is one of the best songs you WILL ever listen to. I love to listen to it before I go to sleep.
This song was written about Jeff Buckley. Elizabeth Frasier wrote it right after he died. She said so herself. Its not about abortion, but rather the beautiful life that was taken from us when Buckley died.
It was written before he died. She recorded the vocals on the day he drowned. She said she had been thinking about him that very day too. Strange coincidence
Had quite the surreal moment with this song. I used to live in Florida. There was a park with a little beach I used to go to if my shift got me out early enough. Pandora was my traveling partner. One day got to this place with about 40 minutes to spare. So I chilled its was nine inch nails artist radio. As the sun finally started to set this song came on. I've never seen something fit into a moment as perfectly as this song did.
wow this reminds me of when i used to get so excited to stay up late and watch House with my mom :) year or so later and i find this song and all the memories come rushing back
I think it's probably about the definition of love itself". "Love, love is a verb, love is a doing word" - "teardrop on the fire, fearless on my breath". Love being a conscious struggle etc., instead of an emotion like infatuation. A lot of pain involved and all that. Probably depends on the listener, since each of us interprets things differently.
The theory is it was about abortion, says who ? *From Wikipedia* _Fraser wrote the song's lyrics. While recording the song on May 29th, 1997, she found out that her once-close friend, Jeff Buckley had drowned. "That was so weird ... I'd got letters out and I was thinking about him. That song's kind of about him - that's how it feels to me anyway."_
LyricsLove, love is a verb Love is a doing word Fearless on my breath Gentle impulsion Shakes me, makes me lighter Fearless on my breathTeardrop on the fire Fearless on my breathNight, night after day Black flowers blossom Fearless on my breath Black flowers blossom Fearless on my breathTeardrop on the fire Fearless on my...Water is my eye Most faithful mirror Fearless on my breath Teardrop on the fire Of a confession Fearless on my breath Most faithful mirror Fearless on my breathTeardrop on the fire Fearless on my breathYou stumble in the dark You stumble in the dark
This song saved my life! I have a Congenital Heart Defect that causes an irregular Sinus Rhythm. The Drum noise in the background is what a regular Sinus rhythm sounds like. I have used this song to correct my heart rate and rhythm using Bose speakers in my Moms car. Thank you!
I have puzzled over the beauty and meaning of this song since I first heard it just before the dawn of a new century. As a man who -eventually- married a beautiful woman who I never thought I could win and having 5 children and soon to be 8 grandchildren I fully understand your explanation / interpretation. We have been married 35 years and 1 day as I write this. I had to be "fearless on my breath" when I was 17 :-)
I just Love this song... Sooo long since the last time i listened to it. Didn't even know it was a Soundtrack now... 😅At least people get to hear it more often now. Wonderful music🥰thank you for this🙏👍🏾 Namasté to all of you...habe a beautiful day 😊🌄🌿
Elizabeth said this song was for Jeff Buckley, her friend who had died. When interviewed she said "That was so weird ... I'd got letters out and I was thinking about him. That song's kind of about him - that's how it feels to me anyway."
Isn't the listeners interpretation what's important? This beautiful piece of music can mean many different things to many different people... but that's the beauty of it. Meaning.
I've been watching House again, and had to listen to the theme song since I've never actually heard it in full before. As soon as the vocals hit, I thought "Is that Liz Frasier from the Cocteau Twins?" Turns out I was right! I got into CT a year-and-a-half ago, and I love them. I thought this song was very reminiscent f their stuff.
I hate how people are arguing about the meaning of the songs lyrics rather than appreciating what an amazing song it is. Liz Frasier is an amazing singer and songwriter, the voice of an angel. I think she never had a predetermined meaning for these lyrics and simply wrote what came to her after massive attack gave her the track. All time classic tune, beautiful.
There is a program called Reeling In the Years on RTÉ in Ireland and features video footage and pictures of the highlights and lowlights of the year with the most popular songs of the year. This song starts to play after footage of the Omagh bombings in Northern Ireland in 1998 is shown, and continues to play with footage of the aftermath and Bill Clinton visiting the bomming site. Every time I hear this song, I think of Omagh
I too would echo that sentiment. Very sorry for the loss of your son, devastating for anyone to lose a child. I can feel myself becoming emotional as I have a son and it would destroy me if I was to lose him. Yours was a very powerful statement. Remain strong.
"Fraser wrote the song's lyrics, inspired by the works of French philosopher Gaston Bachelard". Wikipedia. So, stop writing bullshit about it. It is not about her (dead) friend.
I love thsi song. Been looking for this one for a while. :) House didn't bring me here like it seemed to have many, but I have indeed, watched House. ^^

I have been extremely mourning the loss of my first grandbaby and for some reason, I strongly felt a spiritual reason I ended up here and really Invision him now in the womb as he had his last moment before. My sweet little angel...RIP💙
I don't know if has been posted here already or not, but the song is about being in love with someone who cannot hear it, due to death. It's hard when you lose someone you love, which is what the lyricist Elizabeth Fraser was feeling when she lost her good friend Jeff Buckley. This is what I believe is the analysis of the song. -some dude on a forum I read
I came here for House comments, but got a lot of sad ones. If you come across this one, I know you will get through whatever you are facing. I just want you to know I'm rooting for you.
Thankyou for this video and yes I've been singing the wrong words for years. I love the internet, everyday it finds a new way to let me know how little I really do know. I've learnt to embrace my ignorance, but I appreciate being reminded I'm stupid lol
sometimes people take this tune too seriously its sounds like the divine call of an angel,.. whatever the metaphor with this song is.... the sound moves me.
This song is not about an abortion! If you’re going to put this on youtube do a modicum of research and get to know the person who wrote the song. Elizabeth Fraser (that’s her name) has spoken about the song in various interviews.
Actually... song is not about abortion, but a love of a mother to her unborn yet child. Creator of song said that find this state paradoxical and fascinating: loving someone despite not yet meeting that person.
The last dance lead me to this song sung by Jose Gonzalez's (done very well), then a sugg from that version lead me here. Both very well done & diff point of views on the meaning of song. I'd recommend the jose version as well🙏✌
This song is not about abortion. She was waiting near a river as they were searching for her ex-lovers body....who died in a water rafting incident. She was crying over the fire as they waited till morning to restart the search. She had had cross words with him before he died...and so her crying into the fire are the most faithful statements of how she really felt about him. See wikipedia
final line - He was tumbling in the tow (of the boat on the Mississipi River that unexpectedly washed over Jeff causing him to drown) Definitely not about abortion. This is a song to life and it's bravery. I like to alternate "fearless on my breath" with "feel the summer, pray" and the last line before the outro "teardrop on the fire, fade in summer, pray", RIP Scotty aka Jeff. But each to their own and whatever cranks your tractor. Black flowers live forever (or I bloody well hope so!)

I love this song. I first heard from House. I was just playing a game on Facebook called SongPop and I was doing the electronic playlist and this came up. I was like HOLY FUCKING SHIT!!! I didn't know the song name so I guessed and got it right and now I'm listening to it now.
Excellent! Thankyou! I'd love to make some lyric videos but it would be more fun to watch you do it. Man! Again good job! Thanks for taking the time to take me back to that unGODly age when kids/adults are most likely to get lost & hurt & kill themselves or someone else.
there is nothing that shows that the baby dies inside the womb... so why does poeple keep saying that it's about abortion???? I see a baby that gets ready for the life outside... but ofcause it's open to inturbertation...

Played this at my dad's funeral. Miss him every day. We used to listen to this in the car together. Made me happy then and makes me happy now; simple as that 💙
Played at my Mums funeral too 💖
even if you don't like the song, can't we all agree that this is the voice of an angel?
You've heard an angel's voice?
how can You dislike The song
Liz Fraser formally of The Cocteau Twins
Tyko Brian Have you? It’s just an expression, so why the need to be pedantic about it?
Yes.
I feel incredibly nostalgic in a weird way when I listen to this.

Old Gregg guess thats the idea!

Me too it’s sexy kinda
Fearless on my breath?..................I've been singing "Feels like summer rain" for the last 20 years!
Hehehe
I thought ‘Feel the sunrise break’😅
LMAO!
I thought it was "feel the sunlight (on my) breath"
same omg the first time I heard it on the radio I quickly went to youtube and typed ''feels like summer rain'' hoping to find it hahaha (spoiler, i didn't)
this song makes me un-willingly sad like no other song has. It reminds me of so many things which I'd rather forget, but somehow I love it all the same and listen to it every day
i feel you
Peace
this song fills me with this warm feeling idk why, liz's voice is so soothing.

I cried when i found out he died
It was written before he died. She recorded the vocals on the day he drowned. She said she had been thinking about him that very day too. Strange coincidence
Then what the fuck is the music video?
I've always thought that the line black flowers blooming could be a symbol for grief
Had quite the surreal moment with this song. I used to live in Florida. There was a park with a little beach I used to go to if my shift got me out early enough. Pandora was my traveling partner. One day got to this place with about 40 minutes to spare. So I chilled its was nine inch nails artist radio. As the sun finally started to set this song came on.

As a Medical Student. this song really inspires me while doing my assignments, reminds me why Medicine and studying for it is important

It doesn't matter what the lyrics are about, does it touch your soul or not, it's the music that's beautiful.
This song is so amazing. I can't believe how beautiful and soft her voice is. She makes this song sound effortless. ROCK ON MASSIVE ATTACK AND HOUSE!
wow this reminds me of when i used to get so excited to stay up late and watch House with my mom :) year or so later and i find this song and all the memories come rushing back

@@BarahonaDonQuijote nobody likes the truth anymore....but keep speaking it!!
This give me chills.
fearless on your breath
I'm only sad that I've went my whole life not hearing this song until the other day. Hauntingly beautiful and has played in my head since then.
I thought it was fearless on my brain
I couldn't imagine the heartless people who would just dislike such a beautiful song
The beat is so sick!!!
And the voice and lyrics are just beautiful!!
The theory is it was about abortion, says who ?

_Fraser wrote the song's lyrics. While recording the song on May 29th, 1997, she found out that her once-close friend, Jeff Buckley had drowned. "That was so weird ... I'd got letters out and I was thinking about him. That song's kind of about him - that's how it feels to me anyway."_
Maybe more about miscarriage
It’s about whatever you interpret it to be. Given the mood of the song it’s likely to be somber.
It's funny you say that Robbie because I was thinking of Jeff Buckley as the song was playing but had no clue th a t they knew each other.
@@mitch4551777 I believe they were in a relationship at one point.
@@mitch4551777 She sang Song To The Siren with This Mortal Coil. That was written by Buckley
"House" talk about a show for the ages im gonna miss it :*(
This is a gorgeous song, the woman's voice is so beautiful :) And the beat is just amazing.
No, not pretty music.
Beautiful music.
I feel incredibly nostalgic in a weird way when I listen to this.

Except the ones in the video aren't the same. Derrrr
Yes, there are mistakes in the lyrics in this video
La he escuchado mil veces y aún me encanta
Yeah I was finding it hard to believe the last line was stumble a little.
Brilliant timed words ... Liz is one of the best singers out there.
Cocteau twins are amazingly good.
to me the song means how fearless human souls are before we are born.
Love this
Guten Tag! Das Lied ist auf jeden Fall sehr entspannend. Wenn man mal wieder total dicht irgendwo rumliegt, ist das sehr angenehm. :)
Oct. 2023 it's still as beautiful as ever. Definitely one to stand the test of time 🎉💞💝💝💝

I have listened to Rap and Rock my whole life but when I found Massive Attacks music something changed in me.
Awesome!! House is awesome and so is this song!!!!
This is not properly house music, it's trip-hop

That scene in Prison Break is Epic. I didnt blink once during that scene
وأخير وحدت من تذكر تلك اللحظة
I also heard in prison break 1st season’s episode when they were getting ready to breakout, this song was best in that scene, it was so intense
Been so stressed lately, I needed to hear this and realign myself

Kind of tough considering she found out he died an hour before recording the song.
I came here for House comments, but got a lot of sad ones. If you come across this one, I know you will get through whatever you are facing. I just want you to know I'm rooting for you.
Honestly couldn't ask for more in a video. Well done, and thank you!
This is probably what every person trying to fight Corona listens to before heading to work...
