it's not just a beautiful note- the fact that she literally soars on the word "down" is such an interesting choice to make. This is a great song, and she's an amazing performer...
My wife had left me after 24 years. She was living across town. She'd been gone for three years and no matter what I did or said, she showed no interest in coming home. In desperation, I sent her this song. She's been home for almost two years now and we are doing just fine. I owe ya one, Sara.
wow. this must be the 10 different version I have watched. this one is really really good. she is the best female song writer of her generation without a doubt.
Her voice is incredible. The color in her falsetto is soo gorgeous, particularly @ 1:53. Just the freedom of voice is so moving. And her intonation is spot on. She is so talented, from her singing, to her voice, to her piano playing and her songwriting.
This song hit it dead on when I was trying to get out of a bad relationship with a narcissist. So glad to be hearing it again, 2 years later, free and standing strong,...just the way I’m supposed to be. Thank you Sara for your beautiful voice singing this beautiful song. 💜🙏
Still listening in May 2018. This song captures heartbreak in such a real way. This song really pulls at the heart stings and her vocal ability is just insanely good.
She sang the song with full of emotion and pure soulful harmony. Bless You Sara Bareilles.... You're one of the best vocalist ever. Lady Gaga, Rihanna, Kesha and the likes can't hold a candle to you...
for me this song is about a soul mate, someone who know, someone familiar and no matter where you go you feel them. they will always have a pull on you. you’re in their gravitational pull and you feel amazing in it.
I love so much that she sounds just as great live as she does on the cd. I'm so tired of good looking artists with no talent. We need more people like Sara Bareilles in the music industry.
She is so talented I wish more music artists were as passionate about their music as her, all they want is the cash whereas she truly loves what she's doing
This isn't a simple song about unrequited love. Please listen to the lyrics more closely. It's about emotional abuse: "You loved me cause I'm fragile... Set me free, leave me be... You're keeping me down."
It's also about love and death. One can still have an affect on you even when they are no longer present. Keeping us grounded but also us wanting to let go.
one beautiful song..one beautiful voice...one amazing performance...she manages to feel and show every single beautiful lyric of this song. i just love her. the first time i saw this i cried..it still gives me goosebumps everytime i hear it! great song...great feelings.
it sucks when you know exactly how she feels, not just from the lyrics, but also from the sound of her voice like the the emotion she puts into each note, incredible
I love that we all agree.This girl can sing. Almost as real as if she was a part of me. Once upon a time I knew this memory. so sweet and evocative of her personal way of life. She shares the deepest depths of thee. was that a flat note ...hardly a possibility.... come back
Top 5 most beautiful songs I've ever heard and a clear example of how beauty extends way beyond physical appearance. She's an attractive woman, which is a plus, but I fall for her just hearing that amazing voice and touching lyrics.
Absolutely beautiful. It's been a while since I've heard a perfect song like this. It was sung with such gentleness, yet it was so powerful. She added softness and strength at the right times. Simply PERFECT.
Sara Bareilles is a name that should go down in history as a musical legend. How lucky we all are that we get to enjoy her music. She's not as well known as the current popular artists and bands whose songs completely border on annoying. Isn't it nearly impossible to find a reason to dislike her? Cleverly written lyrics, soothing piano melodies, and a perfect voice to boot... Sara Bareilles, thank you for coming into our lives. =')
I've only just now stumbled onto this amazing writer's equally amazing pipes! I've been a serious singer all my life and a professional all my adult life, and she'd slipped through until now, but no more. I am so glad to have found out that this woman's talents exists! Sara,you really made my day!
Something always brings me back to you. It never takes too long. No matter what I say or do I'll still feel you here 'till the moment I'm gone. You hold me without touch. You keep me without chains. I never wanted anything so much than to drown in your love And not feel your rain. Set me free, leave me be. I don't want to fall another moment into your gravity. Here I am and I stand so tall, just the way I'm supposed to be. But you're on to me and all over me. You loved me 'cause I'm fragile. When I thought that I was strong. But you touch me for a little while And all my fragile strength is gone. Set me free, leave me be. I don't want to fall another moment into your gravity. Here I am and I stand so tall, just the way I'm supposed to be. But you're on to me and all over me. I live here on my knees as I try to make you see That you're everything I think I need here on the ground. But you're neither friend nor foe though I can't seem to let you go. The one thing that I still know is that you're keeping me down, You're keeping me down Something always brings me back to you, It never takes too long
her voice is so beautiful. she has that natural talent. she just sings, like it's not hard at all, its SO easy for her. it just happens, thats truly a gift from God. i would LOVE to see her live.
It's good to know that we are on the same side, because I love this song and I do think that anyone who can't hear this and not feel its depth MUST be dead. I love every version of this song I hear and I am moved each time Ihear it. Glad to know you hear it too!
Some how this beautiful lady with a velvet voice had escaped me until the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame show. I've gotten so use to voices from American idol etc., I'd forgotten how incredible a GREAT voice can really be. God bless you dear lady and thank you God for letting me hear and see her.
Honest to god, she could be one of the most incredible artists in the last 20 years. This song is raw, unbridled passion. The high notes she hits had me on the verge of hyperventilation. Every hair on my body was on end for the entirety of the song. She is a pure representation of what real music is. I find it damn near impossible to keep my cursor of the repeat button. I cant get enough.
This song is magical, performed superbly by Sarah and I have heard that it is going to be released as her next single. If this doesn't win a grammy then I don't know what will. She is a naturally gifted singer/songwriter who deserves so much recognition. She has a beautiful, pure voice. It is breathtaking.
one of the best version of gravity. i can't get enough of this song. my favourite out of all her songs in her albums. can't wait to see her perform live in singapore in may!! :)
The first time I heard this song, I wanted to cry because it was so damn beautiful. It's years later and I still want to cry when I hear this song. Definitely one of the most romantic songs ever sung!
Sara B is an artist of deep sincerity and taste. Those tv talent shows present technical wow factor in singing but never speak directly to the heart like this.
this song has been the story of my life the past 5 years. its crazy how she was able to sum up everything i've ever wanted to say about my first love into one beautiful song.
I have listened to this song everyday for the past couple of weeks and it still gives me chills and a little tear when I sing it with her. Thank goodness I work from home!

there is not a song in this world that describes the situation of loving someone who will never love you back better than this song
Landon Turner Amen so true
sardickie 33 and to think she was 17 when she wrote it.
or an ending you saw or didn't see coming.

Listen to Teeth by The Japanese House
I'm a 54 year old man and I'm in tears. Thank you Sara.
it's not just a beautiful note- the fact that she literally soars on the word "down" is such an interesting choice to make. This is a great song, and she's an amazing performer...
It's a tradition to go back to this video once in a while...
Yes
This girl is the real deal.
Don't have enough thumbs to put up for this comment...
yeah
I love that she can sound better live than on tape. She is so incredible.
It's tragic that this flawless performance has only a fraction of the views of all the lesser covers of this song.
My wife had left me after 24 years. She was living across town. She'd been gone for three years and no matter what I did or said, she showed no interest in coming home. In desperation, I sent her this song. She's been home for almost two years now and we are doing just fine. I owe ya one, Sara.
OMG that's awful! I hope you are well now that you're back together.
My heart 😢
The power of music therapy. 🎉
Omg this is so sad but also so romantic. My heart hurts and also smiles
❤
wow. this must be the 10 different version I have watched. this one is really really good. she is the best female song writer of her generation without a doubt.
I'm totally with you! :)
Gamer Latina I'll take Sara and Alicia Keys over any other artist out there. Those two are the epitome are artistry.
no doubt she is...
agreed!
Taylor swift exists
Her voice is incredible. The color in her falsetto is soo gorgeous, particularly @ 1:53. Just the freedom of voice is so moving. And her intonation is spot on. She is so talented, from her singing, to her voice, to her piano playing and her songwriting.
This song hit it dead on when I was trying to get out of a bad relationship with a narcissist. So glad to be hearing it again, 2 years later, free and standing strong,...just the way I’m supposed to be. Thank you Sara for your beautiful voice singing this beautiful song. 💜🙏
I know this feeling. Scared to stay and terrified to leave. Hurts to admit it even.
Stacey Poteet it’s okay, hope it gets better soon
A romantic thing or death?
@@leif1075 a romantic thing. Took me a long time to get free from.
@@JP5potity be glad it's not death..at least you can still talk and fix things or whatever..
@@leif1075 Glad you're not a psychiatrist! Stupid opinion.
The best version, needs no embellishment. Her voice is evocative.
Still listening in May 2018. This song captures heartbreak in such a real way. This song really pulls at the heart stings and her vocal ability is just insanely good.
She sang the song with full of emotion and pure soulful harmony. Bless You Sara Bareilles.... You're one of the best vocalist ever. Lady Gaga, Rihanna, Kesha and the likes can't hold a candle to you...

Her voice is absolutely beautiful. Aside from that, she perfectly captures the pain I feel in my heart right now.
I COULD NEVER GET TIRED OF LISTENING TO THIS SONG !! SHE'S BEAUTIFUL AND VOICE IS INCREDIBLE !!! OMG!! SENDS CHILLS DOWN MY ARM!! :*(
so well said, I feel the same way
Way to make me cry. That was expressed with your whole heart and soul. Well done.
FROSTY Life llll
I dunno but everytime I sing this... I end up crying... Beautiful voice. Beautiful lyrics. Beautiful melody. Beautiful soul.
her voice is absolutely breathtaking
I love so much that she sounds just as great live as she does on the cd. I'm so tired of good looking artists with no talent. We need more people like Sara Bareilles in the music industry.
Yes ! totally agree !
She is so talented I wish more music artists were as passionate about their music as her, all they want is the cash whereas she truly loves what she's doing
Totally agree! She doesn't try to create all this drama to be famous. She just loves music and it's how she expresses herself.
Sara is an absolute Angel. Another breath taking performance. She hits me right in the heart every single time.
This isn't a simple song about unrequited love. Please listen to the lyrics more closely. It's about emotional abuse: "You loved me cause I'm fragile... Set me free, leave me be... You're keeping me down."
It's about addiction
Unrequited love can be a form of addiction and emotional abuse to one self. Its happened to me.
Emma Dilemma i feel your right
It's also about love and death. One can still have an affect on you even when they are no longer present. Keeping us grounded but also us wanting to let go.
Or how about it can be what ever it means to you that’s what music is
She is an incredible singer, musician and writer. What a talent!
Her voice is so good, it’s like magic. Incredible song, one of her best!
LIVE and REAL no pre-recording. Amazing
one beautiful song..one beautiful voice...one amazing performance...she manages to feel and show every single beautiful lyric of this song. i just love her. the first time i saw this i cried..it still gives me goosebumps everytime i hear it! great song...great feelings.
You know someone is an amazing live performer when you can love the live version of a song like this even better than the recorded one.
i love her voice and her interpretation... the way she sings this song is what makes it so special!
I can't believe I have never heard this song until now... I am baffled... She poured her whole heart out in this song....
Love Sara she is an incredible performer. She has the emotion that brings you into the song and you can feel the hurt.
it sucks when you know exactly how she feels, not just from the lyrics, but also from the sound of her voice like the the emotion she puts into each note, incredible
One word amazing. She has that voice that get you into her world and she can sing. LIke this song.
God, I just want to love this woman! Who hurt you?! Song is beautiful
The tragic irony that loving someone can keep a person so down... And yet there is something so beautiful in that feeling.
True
I love that we all agree.This girl can sing. Almost as real as if she was a part of me. Once upon a time I knew this memory. so sweet and evocative of her personal way of life. She shares the deepest depths of thee. was that a flat note ...hardly a possibility.... come back
ulric rainard Agree
Chills evertime I hear it. So raw and so real...the depths of love....
I was crying because the song is so beautiful and the singer is like an angel. Sarah 😇
oh my goodness she can sing :) finally a star who can actually sing
I wish I could live in US to only seeing her live! Such an inspiration. The lyric and how she sings. OMG
Top 5 most beautiful songs I've ever heard and a clear example of how beauty extends way beyond physical appearance. She's an attractive woman, which is a plus, but I fall for her just hearing that amazing voice and touching lyrics.
its so nice and refreshing to see and hear someone with so much REAL talent..her voice is beautiful and angelic
She is beautiful in every way. Now this is pure talent.
Absolutely beautiful. It's been a while since I've heard a perfect song like this. It was sung with such gentleness, yet it was so powerful. She added softness and strength at the right times. Simply PERFECT.
The gravity that compliments Gravity. So pure and so true.

This song and her voice, it's perfection. I felt every note.
I've only just now stumbled onto this amazing writer's equally amazing pipes! I've been a serious singer all my life and a professional all my adult life, and she'd slipped through until now, but no more. I am so glad to have found out that this woman's talents exists! Sara,you really made my day!
She's amazing. True artist. Sings, plays piano, guitar, and writes her own material...rare and...amazing.
One of my favorite songs and by far the best rendition of this song. The emotions are laid raw and bare. Absolute perfection.
One of so many of Sara's best! Magnificent!
Something always brings me back to you.
It never takes too long.
No matter what I say or do I'll still feel you here
'till the moment I'm gone.
You hold me without touch.
You keep me without chains.
I never wanted anything so much than to drown in your love
And not feel your rain.
Set me free, leave me be.
I don't want to fall another moment into your gravity.
Here I am and I stand so tall, just the way I'm supposed to be.
But you're on to me and all over me.
You loved me 'cause I'm fragile.
When I thought that I was strong.
But you touch me for a little while
And all my fragile strength is gone.
Set me free, leave me be.
I don't want to fall another moment into your gravity.
Here I am and I stand so tall, just the way I'm supposed to be.
But you're on to me and all over me.
I live here on my knees as I try to make you see
That you're everything I think I need here on the ground.
But you're neither friend nor foe though I can't seem to let you go.
The one thing that I still know is that you're keeping me down,
You're keeping me down
Something always brings me back to you,
It never takes too long
Shane Ownbey ;)
her voice is so beautiful.
she has that natural talent.
she just sings, like it's not hard at all,
its SO easy for her.
it just happens, thats truly a gift from God.
i would LOVE to see her live.
Oh! My! How utterly heart-wrenchingly, eyes-wringingly beautiful.
Love Sara she is pure unadulterated talent with a voice no one else can touch in a same way.
Love you Sara.
One of my favorite Sara Bareilles songs! She is a stunning singer and songwriter!
It's good to know that we are on the same side, because I love this song and I do think that anyone who can't hear this and not feel its depth MUST be dead. I love every version of this song I hear and I am moved each time Ihear it. Glad to know you hear it too!
every now and then a song comes along that has the ability to pierce you all the way to your soul. this is one of those songs.
this performance is a masterpiece
sara always touches my heart..she always makes me happy or sad but never in the bad way
This song was one of those, love at first listen. And it still brings a tear to my eye ...
She poured everything in here. Thank You!
she has such a beautiful voice, so talented. i love her.
One of my most favorite songs of all time. It's crazy how just one song can give you such strong feelings.
I will never get tired listening to this master piece.
Some how this beautiful lady with a velvet voice had escaped me until the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame show. I've gotten so use to voices from American idol etc., I'd forgotten how incredible a GREAT voice can really be. God bless you dear lady and thank you God for letting me hear and see her.
When sings to you, it's like she's singing only to you and she means every single word... each word touching straight to your heart.
WOW!!! I saw her last night at BU in Boston and she is so funny and as beautiful inside and out as her voice is!!! My goodness what a voice
This is such a beautifully sad song, I can feel the heartbreak, she flies under the radar, so talented. Love this song!
i LOVE her voice - wow -
Raw, unfiltered and real. Bravery in every beat.
Honest to god, she could be one of the most incredible artists in the last 20 years. This song is raw, unbridled passion. The high notes she hits had me on the verge of hyperventilation. Every hair on my body was on end for the entirety of the song. She is a pure representation of what real music is. I find it damn near impossible to keep my cursor of the repeat button. I cant get enough.
Had to get my daily dose of Sara. She is brilliant!!!
her voice is so perfect! this song is awesome... so heartfelt and honest
stunning, simply put.
Her voice transmits sooo much
This song is magical, performed superbly by Sarah and I have heard that it is going to be released as her next single. If this doesn't win a grammy then I don't know what will. She is a naturally gifted singer/songwriter who deserves so much recognition. She has a beautiful, pure voice. It is breathtaking.
yes, this is a very beautiful song plus the beautiful voice, what a great combination!
oh my god, that was painfully beautiful. It's like she read my mind and made a beautiful song out of it
This woman has literally not aged a day in 10+ years. Love her!
Thank you for the music that warms the soul.
This song..its just so pure n sweet n she sounds great raw . she is def a true singer!! love
one of the best version of gravity. i can't get enough of this song. my favourite out of all her songs in her albums.

This is the best written love song ever, those words are DEEP.
240p we meet again. Why when you find anything incredible on RUclips it is such high quality.
+HireAStudio Because it's an old video. No HD cameras in 2008.
because the old stuff is better :)
Wonderful!!
The first time I heard this song, I wanted to cry because it was so damn beautiful. It's years later and I still want to cry when I hear this song. Definitely one of the most romantic songs ever sung!
One of the most beautiful songs ever. Thank you SYTYCD for introducing it. Kayla and Kupono...YOU ROCK..!
Wow - this brings memories gone and never forgotten of laughter and fun times with someone i think of often through the years. Beautiful.
Very impressive songwriter. Wonderful voice. They only come along once in awhile. She's a shooting star.
Hauntingly, achingly beautiful. You can feel it in her words and words.
Sara B is an artist of deep sincerity and taste. Those tv talent shows present technical wow factor in singing but never speak directly to the heart like this.
We don't have enough real talent like this, Sara you are amazing!!!
this song has been the story of my life the past 5 years.
its crazy how she was able to sum up everything i've ever wanted to say about my first love into one beautiful song.
I have listened to this song everyday for the past couple of weeks and it still gives me chills and a little tear when I sing it with her. Thank goodness I work from home!
This song is SOOO beautiful...makes me cry...the lyrics are so real..
Pure talent. Not many artists now a days sound exactly the same live as they do on their cd's. Amazing. Love her!
absolutely beautiful
she is so good! she can realy touch me with this song, everytime i start to cry again and again!
So many years since I first heard that song, it still gives me chills.
