as a kid I always thought this song was so happy but now, fully understanding the lyrics, made really visualize the pain in the story this song brings.
IKR? I always imagined when they got married (yes i chose to romance Louis over Violet as I didnt like her character at all) this was the song he sang at their wedding.
When My grandma was singing this song to me at bedtime, I remember asking her where Clementine go...and fall asleep picturing Clementine walking around the ocean and the father sitting in the porch gazing at the door on a cloudy day... Now I sing this song to my daughter and think about grandma who's gone forever...
My father was an Ex British Army officer. We are originally from Nepal. My father served in the British Army for almost 30 years. I still recall him singing this song and spoke high of British and Scottish. My father went to be with god in the year 2018. This song brings back memories of my father and fills my eyes with tears. Someday i will come to the UK where my father spent 30 years of his life to atleast pay a tribute to his soul ! Long live the friendship between Nepal and UK
Sorry to be "that guy" but British became used as a term after the union of England and Scotland to be inclusive, so "British and Scottish" is redundant. Without the union there would have been no "British".

The miner was a forty-niner, which means he was a part of the 1849 Gold Rush to California. Over 300,000 people moved to California after the discovery of gold at Sutter’s Mill was widely publicized. Inevitably, most of these people were not proper miners, and many were not even well equipped to make the journey west to start an expensive venture. In the song the miner has a daughter named Clementine. He can’t afford to buy her shoes, so she is wearing small wooden boxes on her feet, referred to as “herring boxes without topses. “ The boxes are also referred to as her sandals. Because she is wearing rough wooden boxes on her feet, she gets a splinter which causes her to stumble and fall into the water as she was driving the ducklings into the water. She drowned because her father, the miner, could not swim and therefore could not save her. “Dreadful sorry, Clementine,” he sings.
@@kukaliemikalie8157 I think that part is supposed to explain why he didn't at least TRY to save her. Most fathers would jump in, knowing they would drown, just to attempt a rescue. Just at a chance to save their daughter. Except this father has a SECOND daughter for which he is responsible and therefore couldn't die trying to save one daughter and possibly leaving the second daughter and orphan. Afterwards, he returns home and kisses the little sister, taking comfort in knowing that he made the best decision for at least one of his children, and trying to make his peace with the loss of his other daughter. Life was much, much harder in the 1800's than it is today. Losing children was not uncommon. You needed to accept the tragedy of it, move on with life, and be grateful for what you have.
I don't understand it, because it is supposed to be from the perspective of Clementine's lover, this means that the lover could not save her, not the father, that is, the "dreadful sorry" part refers to the lover and not the father
Can people stop commenting “who came here after watching it’s okay to not be okay” If you have eyes that can see, you’ll be able to realize that half the comment section is about that
My dad always sang me the Korean version of this when I was young. He stopped at verse four, so I thought the song was about the daughter getting married and going away from her dad...And now I just wish I never knew the full version. Childhood? Ruined.
@@byak6687 Translating roughly, it tells about a fisherman and his daughter living together, until the last part where they say "you have left your old father alone and gone far away". The last verse is up for interpretation tbh
Me. I just sang to my little son in Korean version and he felt asleep. I was the same i heard the korean verion in my childhood and now i sing for my little one.
There was a Korean version? Welp, I am just a tad less uneducated. Also, Cindy, I'm 60 and I'm just now getting the reference of how big Clementine's feet were, and the kind of humor some men have when they don't have much to entertain themselves with. But I still don't know where 'drove the ducklings' came from. I remember 'drove the horses'. I hope you cheered up by now.
If they kill off Clem, I will riot outside of Telltale Studios. *EDIT:* Thank you, Skybound, for not killing off one of the greatest video game characters of all time.
I find it both hilarious and saddening how everyone is misinterpreting this song, though it's understandable because only about half the verses are included in this rendition. It's a man mourning the loss of his girlfriend and then moving on to her sister(which was common in that day and area, as people were few and far between), not an incestuous father mourning his daughter and then getting with his other daughter. This song is meant to be darkly humorous.
Y'know, I see a lot of people misinterpreting this song in the comments, the meaning should be obvious, is about a father, the miner, who lost his daughter Clementine because he couldn't swim to save her and missed her deeply, but he had other daughter and was able to move on with his life.
Misinterpreting? The lyrics are quite clear that the narrator is not the father. It's someone who was in love with a miner's daughter, but couldn't save her when she drowned. Then (in the last verse) he kissed her younger sister and fell in love with her, so everything ended up fine. Like many folk songs, it's morphed and become genericized.
@@ZeldaFan940 Yep,when my brother told me this song,after I watched it,I almost cried bc it's scary as shit. But the sing reminded me of what happened to the game me and my friends did. It's the same. Stubbed her toe against a splinter is just like when my other friend didn't survived the mountain climb and fell down below- But yes I still memorize this song
Back in the 70s, I wanted to join a vocal quintet in my high school. In order to get in, I (along with a whole bunch of other kids) had to do a couple of minutes A cappella (my choice). All the other kids did something either upbeat and/or contemporary or Amazing Grace. When I started singing this there were lots of jaw drops and snickers, but I got Mrs. Simonson's attention and made the group. So I have a soft spot for this song.
My dad used to tell me about a fisherman and how he lost his daughter and sang this song to me. Now he recently passed away. Every time I hear this song reminds me of my dad 😭😭😭
I'm here the old fashioned way-- looked up the lyrics to the "someone's in the kitchen with Dinah" song and got lost in a rabbit hole and that is how I am here today.
Huckleberry Hound. Because of this HB ´s cartoon I recognised the song. But I could never imagine that funny, happy, clumsy, and blue dog was singing such a sad song. Perhaps even He did not know about it, or the cartoon would be sad, too. Thanks for the song/ lyrics, very nice and deep !
@Chibiardo the song last kiss isn't even about the Wayne Cochran. It's about someone else. But he used that story to write a sad ass song. My fav is when Elvis plays it. There are 4 artist that cover Last kiss
Doesn't this dude want to come and sing me to sleeps? Lol! I know it sounds crazy, but he has such a lovely warm voice! Would be so nice to have him sit there singing to me as I fall asleep. These songs bring back so many memories for me
Damn, this song has deep meaning. I always believe in deeper in every part of life, And this is one of those golden thing. I grew up with this tone, as the bell tome, school bell, and child music, but I always felt creeped out and sad yet calm with the tone, Now I know why, its mind blowing really.
I sang this in a Choir in elementary school, and randomly while watching Star Trek: Voyager the EMH started singing this (S6E1) and it blew my mind that I could still recite most of the lyrics. Immediately started singing along. Music can be such a trip.
Meaning of the song: A man describes how he lost his late girlfriend (Clementine) in a swimming accident. The man could not swim so he did nothing to save her. The man meets the girls sister and falls in love because the sister reminds him of Clementine. When he in in the company of the sister she reminds him of Clementine and the pain temporarily goes away. But the man has not forgotten his late lover and she will always be in his thoughts for the rest of his life. Note: The final lyrics to the song are "Dreadful sorry Clementine." This was my interpretation. I find it hard to believe that the writer would intend for Clementine to be simply forgotten after the man falls in love with her sister. It has happened many times in history where a man would bed the sister of his late lover because of the strong similarity. P.S. This video sounds so much better when you speed up the song to 1.25.
the introduction of the song is : "In a cavern in a canyon, Excavating for a mine, Lived a miner forty-niner, And his daughter Clementine." so the 3rd person is used. Then we hear the 1st person : "Oh, my darlin', Oh my darlin', Oh my darlin' Clementine. You are lost and gone forever, Dreadful sorry Clementine." So obviously, the main character of the song, who says "I", speaks actually about Clementine (his late girlfriend, and her dad who was a miner - just in order to present the context, who she is, where she comes from. Nothing about incest, then...
Why's that? She's still alive, and probably will be for the rest of the series. Imagine the shit storm that will come if TellTale kills off Clementine.
KoalaCandy I know, what I was referring to is her tragic history, how she has lost so much, and became a hardened soul. I hope to God she doesn't die, I will go fucking nuts. She's my favorite character.
I actually came here because of Max Lobo from the movie " Banana fish". Ash was pissed off when he sang "Oh my darling clementine" again and again because he doesn't know the Lyrics 😭😂😭
Such a beautiful song this is. My dream is to sing this to my little daughter one day. Recently went through a breakup with the woman I thought I was gonna marry and have kids with. Hold on all of you wherever you are in your life
I, remember listening to this song a long time ago. Till I came across the song yesterday.” It brings back memories, I remember a song with the same rhythm found a peanut, I was 4 or 5 years old.” When I heard this song, I can’t stop listening to this song I Love it!!!!
Over my years I would go through spurts of parts of this song singing in my head from when I was a little kid. Dont remember where or rly when I first heard it, but after all these years typing the part I knew into google and found it! It makes me feel weird now knowing what its all about, but even as a kid I remember it making me sad. It still does.
It's based on a true story about a guy who was in love with a miner's daughter and one day when they were in the river she stubbed her toe and fell in the water she wasn't able to swim coz she swallowed water but the guy wasn't able to help her coz he didn't know how to swim so he watched her die and sink in the water her little sis almost committed suicide so he stood beside her and helped her and he kissed her everyday on her cheek coz that's what clementine used to do to calm her down he helped her and she helped him forget clementine she was 6 years old at that time
Charlotte Rhodes “Oh My Darling, Clementine” is a traditional American folk song, commonly credited to Percy Montrose (1884). The lyrics have changed over time, and what started as a sincere lament became a parody. Clementine is the daughter of a 49er, a miner in the 1849 California Gold Rush. But she drowned. As the song progresses, the changes become evident, with the tone turning tongue-in-cheek. The second verse, for example, mentions the size of Clementine’s feet: so big she wears boxes instead of shoes.”
I came here cuz I heard someone say "Call me Darla" in the tune of this song, making a reference to this song, and it started going through my head. I think Ive heard Pete Seeger sing it? That's probably where I heard it from at first. I'm not sure. It makes me oddly happy when youtubers make references to or sing songs such as this. I mean youtubers that don't typically do such things. I know its been 3 months since your comment so theres a good chance you wont see mine, but nyeh. My mom says, "If you don't ask the answer is always no," and while it doesn't apply to this exactly, it's the same concept. If curious abt the video, cuz why not, ruclips.net/video/ih0e5I97fwc/видео.html 1:39:17
That's exactly what happened to me. When I was a kid and was starting with English in kindergarten I couldn't remember more than "oh my darling Clementine". Today, after 25 years I decided to google the full song text and learn who that girl really was. Amazing and unexpected!
Melanie Burton Uh, is that don't "spell" it for you or don't "spoil" it for you? Why don't people use spellcheck? It doesn't catch the "your" for "you're" errors, but it can be a great help with other errors. Usually. :-o
Like most of us, I learnt it in school. Didn’t realize then, how sad it is. In fact, I read someone’s research on this and learned that most nursery rhymes are based on very sad stories. Love from India
@@hydzdaily5647 the miner have a daughter named clementine? but she died.. she wears herring shoes or wooden shoes she stumble and fall on the water while driving the ducks away? clementine died coz of drowning cause he couldn't save her coz he doesn't know how to swim... so he feels dreadful and sorry for losing her and he ended up watching her drown without doing anything coz he doesn't know what to do and a coward too i guess... it's a sad story... edited i forgot.. he was being haunted by clementine memories coz he wish he could have done something to save her... in some versions he ended up killing himself too..
En una caverna, en un cañón, Excavando para una mina, Vivía un minero del cuarenta y nueve* Y su hija Clementina. ¡Ho! mi querida, ¡Ho! mi querida ¡Ho! mi querida Clementina Te perdimos y te fuiste para siempre Cuánto lo siento, Clementina. Ligera era y como una hada Y calzaba un cuarenta y tres Latas de arenques sin tapas Hacían sandalias para Clementina. ¡Ho! mi querida, ¡Ho! mi querida ¡Ho! mi querida Clementina Te perdimos y te fuiste para siempre Cuánto lo siento, Clementina. Llevaba los patitos al agua Cada mañana a las nueve Tropezó contra una palo Y cayó en la salmuera espumosa. ¡Ho! mi querida, ¡Ho! mi querida ¡Ho! mi querida Clementina Te perdimos y te fuiste para siempre Cuánto lo siento, Clementina. Sus labios de rubí por encima del agua Soplaban burbujas lindas y delicadas, Pero, ¡ay! no sabía nadar Luego perdí mi Clementina. ¡Ho! mi querida, ¡Ho! mi querida ¡Ho! mi querida Clementina Te perdimos y te fuiste para siempre Cuánto lo siento, Clementina. En el cementerio cerca del cañón Donde el mirto se entrelaza, Ahí crecen rosas y ramilletes Fertilizados por Clementina. ¡Ho! mi querida, ¡Ho! mi querida ¡Ho! mi querida Clementina Te perdimos y te fuiste para siempre Cuánto lo siento, Clementina. Luego el minero del cuarenta y nueve Pronto empezó a tener altibajos Pensó que debería juntarse con su hija, Ahora está con Clementina. ¡Ho! mi querida, ¡Ho! mi querida ¡Ho! mi querida Clementina Te perdimos y te fuiste para siempre Cuánto lo siento, Clementina. En mis sueños todavía me ronda Vestida de prendas empapadas de salmuera Aunque la solía abrazar viva, Ahora está muerta, ya se acabó. ¡Ho! mi querida, ¡Ho! mi querida ¡Ho! mi querida Clementina Te perdimos y te fuiste para siempre Cuánto lo siento, Clementina. Cuánto la eché de menos, cuánto la eché de menos, Cuánto eché de menos a mi Clementina Hasta que besé a su hermanita Y olvidé mi Clementina. ¡Ho! mi querida, ¡Ho! mi querida ¡Ho! mi querida Clementina Te perdimos y te fuiste para siempre Cuánto lo siento, Clementina. DE NADA
Re: It's Okay Not To Be Okay The other version of this song fully encapsulates MY's first nightmare after she went back to her hometown. The father actually attempted to be with Clementine again. She still haunts him in his sleep and he still sees her rising up from the water and he kisses her when she does. This goes back to Episode 2 with her nightmare. Instead of blood on the floor, it's water and there were footsteps going up from the basement like someone went out from the water. The way her mom's demon paralysis monster looks like she's floating on water on top of MY is a sign too. And also the fact that in her nightmare, young MY was looking out into the lake with her mother slowly rising above the water asking for help. My theory is, the father attempted to kill MY's mother but he was always "a step too late". He probably pushed her into the water or something and he may have wanted to drown her. She probably survived though. I'm pretty sure it's the lady in the flower robes. She always has her hair tied up and is always reading a book. MY's mother always had a fixation with her hair and books as well.
@@duxsiol_2546 when you suffer extreme trauma from what I know, you tend to repress your memories of the past. As we can see, MY never has the courage to look at any of her mother's portraits. I don't think she remembers her face that well. In the episode where the auntie was claiming she was MY's mom, MY believed her for a while. She said, "Is it really you, mom? Are you really back?" It hints that even MY herself doesn't believe her mom is dead. Joori hinted at this in the first episode too saying "but your mom is still alive" or something along those lines. Even the director of the hospital says after her last book, she was missing. Only five years after was she announced or considered dead. Most likely MY's mom is really still alive.
Omg. My class learned this song in 4th grade because we were learning about the gold rush, and we loved it and wanted to sing it all the time. I forgot about the song for a while, until my class went on a retreat 4 years later, and we were singing songs. I saw this song in the song book and was like, "Oh wow! This song! Let's sing this one!" We sang the song for memories and realized how dark it was... Whoops... Just ruined my childhood... again...
it hit different to me even more cause my music teacher in like 1st-2nd grade had taught our class, “oh my darlin, oh my darlin, oh my darlin clementine, you were lost and now i found you, oh my darlin clementine” and not the real lyrics. like damn i just wanted to re-listen to this song for some nostalgia not to cry lmao
Never heard this in any media my dad used to sing this to me to go to sleep and it was always eerie. Maybe he was trying to tell me something. That's probably why I feel connected to this song now that I'm in my 20s. Glad y'all found this however you did and enjoy it tho :) have a nice day
i have a feeling Louis is gonna get together with clementine in twd and one is gonna die and this song is gonna pop up again and ima cry myself tf to sleep
First I found this song in the drama ''Psycho but it's okay'' and now I found it again in ''Banana Fish''. What a coincidence. Things that I love to watch.
Read the lyrics if you're confused about the song. The guy is a miner, his daughter drowns, but his pain is eased when he kisses her sister (his daughter), meaning he had another child whom to love. Idk where y'all are getting the idea that it's about siblings kissing and incest crap...
Man I remember way back in the day, my elementary school taught me and my class to sing this, they also taught us how to do the pledge of allegiance in sign language, ahh good times...good times
as a kid I always thought this song was so happy but now, fully understanding the lyrics, made really visualize the pain in the story this song brings.
Me too ...we sang this song in primary like it was nobody business
Yes but it was just made up from the miner 49ers foe entertainment

@Sl3eep The song's narrative is not from her father's perspective, but her lover.

Y'know, I see a lot of people misinterpreting this song in the comments, the meaning should be obvious, is about a father, the miner, who lost his daughter Clementine because he couldn't swim to save her and missed her deeply, but he had other daughter and was able to move on with his life.
Sweet home Alabama
Misinterpreting? The lyrics are quite clear that the narrator is not the father. It's someone who was in love with a miner's daughter, but couldn't save her when she drowned. Then (in the last verse) he kissed her younger sister and fell in love with her, so everything ended up fine. Like many folk songs, it's morphed and become genericized.

Yep,when my brother told me this song,after I watched it,I almost cried bc it's scary as shit.
But the sing reminded me of what happened to the game me and my friends did.
It's the same.
Stubbed her toe against a splinter is just like when my other friend didn't survived the mountain climb and fell down below-
But yes I still memorize this song
Max lobo sing this song but he only remember one line but like a fate, this song is actually gonna be his story. His 'son', ash lynx gone forever😭😭😭..
Back in the 70s, I wanted to join a vocal quintet in my high school. In order to get in, I (along with a whole bunch of other kids) had to do a couple of minutes A cappella (my choice). All the other kids did something either upbeat and/or contemporary or Amazing Grace. When I started singing this there were lots of jaw drops and snickers, but I got Mrs. Simonson's attention and made the group. So I have a soft spot for this song.
Amazing Grace was about a Slaver that felt remorseful for what he did and so he wrote this song and get all religious before he died.
This is a beautiful, yet dark song.
One of many.
My dad used to tell me about a fisherman and how he lost his daughter and sang this song to me. Now he recently passed away. Every time I hear this song reminds me of my dad 😭😭😭
Hope you are doing good man.

Um you do know this song is about a father and his daughter that he wasn't able to save from drowning right? This song isn't met to serenade any girl.
@Chibiardo doesn't have to be based on a real thing dude. Just listen to the damn song. Most song tell fake good stories
@Chibiardo the song last kiss isn't even about the Wayne Cochran. It's about someone else. But he used that story to write a sad ass song. My fav is when Elvis plays it. There are 4 artist that cover Last kiss
Doesn't this dude want to come and sing me to sleeps? Lol! I know it sounds crazy, but he has such a lovely warm voice! Would be so nice to have him sit there singing to me as I fall asleep. These songs bring back so many memories for me

Damn, this song has deep meaning.
I always believe in deeper in every part of life,
And this is one of those golden thing.
I grew up with this tone, as the bell tome, school bell, and child music, but I always felt creeped out and sad yet calm with the tone,
Now I know why, its mind blowing really.

Which episode?
@@karleybard5064 7
Same🙏🏼😅
Me too.
I sang this in a Choir in elementary school, and randomly while watching Star Trek: Voyager the EMH started singing this (S6E1) and it blew my mind that I could still recite most of the lyrics. Immediately started singing along. Music can be such a trip.
Sevens voice is so gorgous omfgggg love her
Meaning of the song:
A man describes how he lost his late girlfriend (Clementine) in a swimming accident. The man could not swim so he did nothing to save her. The man meets the girls sister and falls in love because the sister reminds him of Clementine. When he in in the company of the sister she reminds him of Clementine and the pain temporarily goes away. But the man has not forgotten his late lover and she will always be in his thoughts for the rest of his life.
Note: The final lyrics to the song are "Dreadful sorry Clementine."
This was my interpretation. I find it hard to believe that the writer would intend for Clementine to be simply forgotten after the man falls in love with her sister. It has happened many times in history where a man would bed the sister of his late lover because of the strong similarity.
P.S. This video sounds so much better when you speed up the song to 1.25.
😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
He actually does forget her, this song is supposed to be darkly humorous.
TheNewRiflemanBob Clementine is his daughter tho
Girume That's debatable.
the introduction of the song is :
"In a cavern in a canyon, Excavating for a mine, Lived a miner
forty-niner, And his daughter Clementine." so the 3rd person is used.
Then we hear the 1st person : "Oh, my darlin', Oh my darlin', Oh my darlin' Clementine. You are lost and gone forever, Dreadful sorry Clementine."
So obviously, the main character of the song, who says "I", speaks actually about Clementine (his late girlfriend, and her dad who was a miner - just in order to present the context, who she is, where she comes from.
Nothing about incest, then...
I'm tearing up, thinking about Clementine from Telltale's Walking Dead.
:,(
Why's that? She's still alive, and probably will be for the rest of the series. Imagine the shit storm that will come if TellTale kills off Clementine.
KoalaCandy I know, what I was referring to is her tragic history, how she has lost so much, and became a hardened soul. I hope to God she doesn't die, I will go fucking nuts. She's my favorite character.

came here after watching Psycho But It’s Ok. Damnnn this song somewhat has a connection to what had happened to KMY’s mom
Agree
Over my years I would go through spurts of parts of this song singing in my head from when I was a little kid. Dont remember where or rly when I first heard it, but after all these years typing the part I knew into google and found it! It makes me feel weird now knowing what its all about, but even as a kid I remember it making me sad. It still does.
It's based on a true story about a guy who was in love with a miner's daughter and one day when they were in the river she stubbed her toe and fell in the water she wasn't able to swim coz she swallowed water but the guy wasn't able to help her coz he didn't know how to swim so he watched her die and sink in the water her little sis almost committed suicide so he stood beside her and helped her and he kissed her everyday on her cheek coz that's what clementine used to do to calm her down he helped her and she helped him forget clementine she was 6 years old at that time
Sources??
Source : dude trust me
@@charlotterhodes7359 Some answers are just true
Charlotte Rhodes “Oh My Darling, Clementine” is a traditional American folk song, commonly credited to Percy Montrose (1884).
The lyrics have changed over time, and what started as a sincere lament became a parody. Clementine is the daughter of a 49er, a miner in the 1849 California Gold Rush. But she drowned. As the song progresses, the changes become evident, with the tone turning tongue-in-cheek. The second verse, for example, mentions the size of Clementine’s feet: so big she wears boxes instead of shoes.”
@@firstmatepetethedreadful3696 Thank you! Wth is up with these comments? Dramatic Irony is beyond people I guess.

Nice Song, I thought of the walking dead, the Game, OUR sweet little Clementine :-))
I love it
When you realize that this is about clementine drowning and the guy singing had to watch her drown
And when you realize he moved on to romance Clementines little sister and basically forgot his grief for Clementine. 😳
Dreadful 😅😅
And then he made out with her little sister, and completely forgot her
So bonnie sang this song, then.
@@springboard1994 no he had another child and could move on from grieving clementine. Moron.
Everyone here be like: who's here after watching *insert show*
Meanwhile the song just popped into my head and I wanted to hear the full song
I came here cuz I heard someone say "Call me Darla" in the tune of this song, making a reference to this song, and it started going through my head. I think Ive heard Pete Seeger sing it? That's probably where I heard it from at first. I'm not sure.
It makes me oddly happy when youtubers make references to or sing songs such as this. I mean youtubers that don't typically do such things.
I know its been 3 months since your comment so theres a good chance you wont see mine, but nyeh. My mom says, "If you don't ask the answer is always no," and while it doesn't apply to this exactly, it's the same concept.

That's exactly what happened to me. When I was a kid and was starting with English in kindergarten I couldn't remember more than "oh my darling Clementine". Today, after 25 years I decided to google the full song text and learn who that girl really was. Amazing and unexpected!

Good memories And bad/sad memories from TWD game series
Five years ago we used to sing this song in our school..cant forget that one of my friend just started crying.
Like most of us, I learnt it in school. Didn’t realize then, how sad it is. In fact, I read someone’s research on this and learned that most nursery rhymes are based on very sad stories. Love from India
his voice is so warm ❤ ❤
This is such a sad song ! Louis plays it with such joyfulness, that I missed the tragedy behind it. I hope it's not a foreshadowing of Clem death...

@@hydzdaily5647 the miner have a daughter named clementine? but she died.. she wears herring shoes or wooden shoes she stumble and fall on the water while driving the ducks away? clementine died coz of drowning cause he couldn't save her coz he doesn't know how to swim... so he feels dreadful and sorry for losing her and he ended up watching her drown without doing anything coz he doesn't know what to do and a coward too i guess...
it's a sad story...

En una caverna, en un cañón,
Excavando para una mina,
Vivía un minero del cuarenta y nueve*
Y su hija Clementina.
¡Ho! mi querida, ¡Ho! mi querida
¡Ho! mi querida Clementina
Te perdimos y te fuiste para siempre
Cuánto lo siento, Clementina.
Ligera era y como una hada
Y calzaba un cuarenta y tres
Latas de arenques sin tapas
Hacían sandalias para Clementina.
¡Ho! mi querida, ¡Ho! mi querida
¡Ho! mi querida Clementina
Te perdimos y te fuiste para siempre
Cuánto lo siento, Clementina.
Llevaba los patitos al agua
Cada mañana a las nueve
Tropezó contra una palo
Y cayó en la salmuera espumosa.
¡Ho! mi querida, ¡Ho! mi querida
¡Ho! mi querida Clementina
Te perdimos y te fuiste para siempre
Cuánto lo siento, Clementina.
Sus labios de rubí por encima del agua
Soplaban burbujas lindas y delicadas,
Pero, ¡ay! no sabía nadar
Luego perdí mi Clementina.
¡Ho! mi querida, ¡Ho! mi querida
¡Ho! mi querida Clementina
Te perdimos y te fuiste para siempre
Cuánto lo siento, Clementina.
En el cementerio cerca del cañón
Donde el mirto se entrelaza,
Ahí crecen rosas y ramilletes
Fertilizados por Clementina.
¡Ho! mi querida, ¡Ho! mi querida
¡Ho! mi querida Clementina
Te perdimos y te fuiste para siempre
Cuánto lo siento, Clementina.
Luego el minero del cuarenta y nueve
Pronto empezó a tener altibajos
Pensó que debería juntarse con su hija,
Ahora está con Clementina.
¡Ho! mi querida, ¡Ho! mi querida
¡Ho! mi querida Clementina
Te perdimos y te fuiste para siempre
Cuánto lo siento, Clementina.
En mis sueños todavía me ronda
Vestida de prendas empapadas de salmuera
Aunque la solía abrazar viva,
Ahora está muerta, ya se acabó.
¡Ho! mi querida, ¡Ho! mi querida
¡Ho! mi querida Clementina
Te perdimos y te fuiste para siempre
Cuánto lo siento, Clementina.
Cuánto la eché de menos, cuánto la eché de menos,
Cuánto eché de menos a mi Clementina
Hasta que besé a su hermanita
Y olvidé mi Clementina.
¡Ho! mi querida, ¡Ho! mi querida
¡Ho! mi querida Clementina
Te perdimos y te fuiste para siempre
Cuánto lo siento, Clementina.
DE NADA
wey gracias te amo
es más creepy de lo que pensé
Wee!! muchisimas gracias!
Gracias 💕
Gracias 🥺❤️
Re: It's Okay Not To Be Okay
The other version of this song fully encapsulates MY's first nightmare after she went back to her hometown. The father actually attempted to be with Clementine again. She still haunts him in his sleep and he still sees her rising up from the water and he kisses her when she does.
This goes back to Episode 2 with her nightmare. Instead of blood on the floor, it's water and there were footsteps going up from the basement like someone went out from the water. The way her mom's demon paralysis monster looks like she's floating on water on top of MY is a sign too. And also the fact that in her nightmare, young MY was looking out into the lake with her mother slowly rising above the water asking for help.
My theory is, the father attempted to kill MY's mother but he was always "a step too late". He probably pushed her into the water or something and he may have wanted to drown her. She probably survived though. I'm pretty sure it's the lady in the flower robes. She always has her hair tied up and is always reading a book. MY's mother always had a fixation with her hair and books as well.
Athena Banana But why is it that KMY doesn't recognize her? And she was always reading the mother's books, maybe she just wanted to imitate?
@@duxsiol_2546 when you suffer extreme trauma from what I know, you tend to repress your memories of the past. As we can see, MY never has the courage to look at any of her mother's portraits. I don't think she remembers her face that well.
In the episode where the auntie was claiming she was MY's mom, MY believed her for a while. She said, "Is it really you, mom? Are you really back?" It hints that even MY herself doesn't believe her mom is dead. Joori hinted at this in the first episode too saying "but your mom is still alive" or something along those lines. Even the director of the hospital says after her last book, she was missing. Only five years after was she announced or considered dead. Most likely MY's mom is really still alive.
Athena Banana True, I do believe the mother is alive, just skeptical of her being Park Okran. Anyhow, really excited for this weekend's episodes
@@persiepony this is gonna be awesome
When we all thought the lady in flowery robe is KMY’s mother...
Omg. My class learned this song in 4th grade because we were learning about the gold rush, and we loved it and wanted to sing it all the time. I forgot about the song for a while, until my class went on a retreat 4 years later, and we were singing songs. I saw this song in the song book and was like, "Oh wow! This song! Let's sing this one!" We sang the song for memories and realized how dark it was... Whoops... Just ruined my childhood... again...
First time I heard this was Louis singing it to Clementine. Such a great introduction.
The “You are lost and gone forever” hit different
it hit different to me even more cause my music teacher in like 1st-2nd grade had taught our class, “oh my darlin, oh my darlin, oh my darlin clementine, you were lost and now i found you, oh my darlin clementine” and not the real lyrics. like damn i just wanted to re-listen to this song for some nostalgia not to cry lmao
Louis from The Walking Dead Game Season 4 sings it better

I prefer Violet, I like her more than louis.
@Joesph Is The Best Joestar You a lie 😂😂
What a great voice!
First I found this song in the drama ''Psycho but it's okay'' and now I found it again in ''Banana Fish''.
What a coincidence. Things that I love to watch.
I had no idea, this song was so heartbreaking. A song about a father losing his child, is about the worse thing ever.
Read the lyrics if you're confused about the song.
The guy is a miner, his daughter drowns, but his pain is eased when he kisses her sister (his daughter), meaning he had another child whom to love.
Idk where y'all are getting the idea that it's about siblings kissing and incest crap...
+thief1434 - The guy singing the song is telling the story. So, it's him kissing Clementine and her sister, not their father.
I read this when he said that
+thief1434 No, the singer is supposed to be Clementine's lover, not her father
+athull08 it clearly says in the beginning that Clementine is the singer's daughter, not lover
Tigerwings598
no, the beginning of the song talks ABOUT Clementine's father. It's not sung BY her father.
