I am much older than you, but i feel the same. I am not religous, but new songs from birdy are like something from up above. I hope we will be able to enjoy the good things, and to create good things for the people around us !
[Verse 1] You're so quiet over there, across the sea It's not like you, to be out of touch, more than a week And I had to stop myself, from reachin' out 'Cause you know how I get so riddled, with doubt It's not up to you to build me up, each time I fall It's not up to you, anymore [Chorus] But I hope your days are, filled with happiness And I hope my name never, taste of bitterness And I hope who loves you, knows what they found I have to learn to go without If this is it now [Verse 2] It's nearly 9AM on the other side You'll be gettin' up to start your day, in a little whilе And I wonder what's the first thing on your mind As you come around and wipе the sleep from your eyes But it's not up to me, to hear your dreams Or be your wake up call It's not up to me, anymore [Chorus] But I hope your days are, filled with happiness And I hope my name never, taste of bitterness And I hope who loves you, knows what they found I have to learn to go without If this is it now
Take your time, breathe, hide yourself in the forest... the world will miss you when this happens. Just let them hear your music, we still have life ahead.
Honestly Birdy is one of the best singers to ever exist. ❤ Her voice is perfection - every single song of hers is beautiful. I hope she never changes 🥺❤
@@GinoGenero I'm not sure, but I don't think so. I've just been looking it up and there are no straight forward answers, but I'm pretty sure Birdy prefers they/them or he/him.
Can we take a brief moment to appreciate the hard-hitting, heart-wrenching lexical tears that she's written into this song? 'It's not up to you to build me up, each time I fall. It's not up to you, any more. But I hope your days are filled with happiness. And I hope my name never tastes of bitterness. And I hope who loves you, knows what they've found. But I have to learn to go without, if this is it, now.' R.I.P. heart.
how strange someone on the other side of the world, someone whom you've never met knows how you feel and what you're thinking better than anyone else around. feels like I've written these lyrics. maybe she has found our letters. maybe everyone is hurt the same way. says the same things every day. in case you'd come across this amazing artist with the same name of yours and read my comment. I miss you so fucking much J. hope you can find your inner peace. love, always
Heartbreaking, soul-wrecking and hauntingly beautiful. I have no words... Lyrics, her vocal skills, gentleness, sensitivity. The most touching song I've ever heard in my life... ❤️
There are not enough words in any language to describe the emotions that I experienced while listening to this song. It was as if Jasmine had thrown me into the fluffy cloud of her voice and I was drowned in it. I don't want to leave this cloud
This was exactly the thing I needed to hear. Birdy's voice has never once failed to make my day better. I hope your day is filled with happiness and so much love xx
I know I commented earlier but I’m only just discovering this young lady’s music. What a genius she is, her work feels so personal, like she’s singing directly to me. Such a talent, just WOW!!
This song always gets me into a deep place and it came at a very apt time in my life. It's so weird how songs could so perfectly word out the emotions we have roiling up inside. Birdy's pen and musicianship is quite extraordinary!
Things less often talked about: the way your hands so gracefully float across the piano and the brilliance of your songwriting. This is no doubt because the expressive emotional beauty of your voice is unequaled in the world today.
how many feelings there are in this interpretation, makes the heart beat faster and the soul vibrate. How rich and beautiful to listen to you. Birdy always Birdy
Every song she's releasing at the moment is just stunningly beautiful, and among her best. I don't think I've ever known someone release masterpiece after masterpiece like this - I'm amazed.
I think my repeat button is broken. What a song, what a voice! Birdys gift is simply out of this world, she is an extremely talented and outstanding artist. Incredible! 👏❤
This summer I met someone special. All these feelings overflowing, chemicals in my brain making me feel things I forgot existed. But as summer ended, things changed, we moved on and now it feels like nothing remains. Damn this song hit me like a truck... Wherever you are I hope your days are filled with happiness, and I hope my name never taste of bitterness and I hope who loves you, knows what they found Thanks Birdy ❤️
listening to this song all day long, such captivating music. Birdy makes me feel, like everything is alright about this world, like beautiful people and musicians still exist here...
It's not up to you to build me up each time I fall. It's not up to you anymore....I hope my name never tastes of bitterness... These lines hit pretty deep every time! This is some beautiful penmanship for real
It breaks my heart that I will probably never be able to create anything as beautiful as this but can't help but feel pure happiness from simply being able to listen and feel this
Please play the birmingham symphony hall after all this Covid stuff is over. I want to hear every single note unadulterated, live. Your performances are incredible.
Einfach unglaublich diese Stimme! Gänsehaut am ganzen Körper vom ersten bis zum letzten Ton. Birdys Talent ist herausragend, was für eine tolle Künstlerin! 👏❤
In the 60'2 and 70's, actually all along through the decades there were one hit wonders. Albums were released, holding the hit song on the 2nd or 3rd place. Usually, the rest of the album was either so so or just not worth listening to, hence singles. (Talking about Vinyl here especially). Now, along comes Birdy, with every single song on every single album a masterpiece. Just magnificence. While I'm on the subject, how she manages to keep her timing with piano and singing in real time is beyond my limited understanding. The amount of hours Birdy must put in.
I agree with you on the quality of Birdy’s songs / albums. But there were many, many brilliant albums in the 60s and 70s. I’d probably refer to the new millenium when it comes to poor quality of music. I guess the quality is still there, but it’s harder to find because mainstream music (the stuff that gets publicity, promotion and airplay) is mostly trash.
I wish i knew the person Birdy talks in here. I Guess her studio fortress took waves of love here because it fills all of my heart with love and gratitude. Her bird notes when She gets emotional are a Treasure to the love She sends and to the ears attentive to her stunning talent. And although this is a sad song, She transforms it INTO glitter. There's a reason She is even more talented live. We hear some country vibes too that remind me also Tracy Chapman and others. Thank you for this GEM, Birdy, you sure are ONE of a kind in this World. Sending a hug to your HEART.
@@fanofbirdysongsandmusic2206 he said he met her in Amsterdam, Netherlands and that this song is about him but I’m like 99% convinced he was lying and he’s just an ordinary fan like we all are
this song has become everything in a few days, I'm happy to listen to it, it relaxes me, calms me, then I can listen to it when I'm sad, anxious, when I want to dance and when I want to sing. incredible.

The only good thing that happen in 2020 is seeing Birdy back
I am much older than you, but i feel the same. I am not religous, but new songs from birdy
are like something from up above. I hope we will be able to enjoy the good things, and to
create good things for the people around us !
Yes😍
Soo true❤️❤️
Indeed ❤️
LITERALLY 😭😭😭😩😩
[Verse 1]
You're so quiet over there, across the sea
It's not like you, to be out of touch, more than a week
And I had to stop myself, from reachin' out
'Cause you know how I get so riddled, with doubt
It's not up to you to build me up, each time I fall
It's not up to you, anymore
[Chorus]
But I hope your days are, filled with happiness
And I hope my name never, taste of bitterness
And I hope who loves you, knows what they found
I have to learn to go without
If this is it now
[Verse 2]
It's nearly 9AM on the other side
You'll be gettin' up to start your day, in a little whilе
And I wonder what's the first thing on your mind
As you come around and wipе the sleep from your eyes
But it's not up to me, to hear your dreams
Or be your wake up call
It's not up to me, anymore
[Chorus]
But I hope your days are, filled with happiness
And I hope my name never, taste of bitterness
And I hope who loves you, knows what they found
I have to learn to go without
If this is it now
Many thanks!
Thanks

Honestly Birdy is one of the best singers to ever exist. ❤ Her voice is perfection - every single song of hers is beautiful. I hope she never changes 🥺❤
I'm sorry but Birdy's preferred pronouns are they/them or he/him as far as the research I've done shows
@@waltzing5 Please be kind enough to provide links or references to the research that you cited. Thanks
@@GinoGenero I'm not sure, because it was on my mates phone, but look it up yourself and you'll see
I think you have her confused with the Japanese anime character "Birdy the Mighty"
@@GinoGenero I'm not sure, but I don't think so. I've just been looking it up and there are no straight forward answers, but I'm pretty sure Birdy prefers they/them or he/him.

@giorgio ivaldi lucky you
@giorgio ivaldi no you haven't
@giorgio ivaldi she would only be 9 years old! Perhaps she was on holiday with her family? Or perhaps you're ........🤔
@giorgio ivaldi 🤡
She just found the right way to put the right words of how we feel
IMO the most beautiful woman.
What a crushing song, a story, a heartache. How can such a young soul have such insight.
2:40 - 3:00 is sound of the angel
Heartbreaking, soul-wrecking and hauntingly beautiful. I have no words... Lyrics, her vocal skills, gentleness, sensitivity. The most touching song I've ever heard in my life... ❤️
The melancholy of this song goes straight to my heart. Beautiful song, lovely piano chords... and those high-pitched notes are just heaven.
There are not enough words in any language to describe the emotions that I experienced while listening to this song. It was as if Jasmine had thrown me into the fluffy cloud of her voice and I was drowned in it. I don't want to leave this cloud
I keep craying with every song...
I hope your days are filled with happiness and I hope my name never taste of bitterness and I hope who loves you knows what they found. 😔
Birdy's lyrics are so raw my eyes are blurred typing this. It's literally poetry. She captures everything so well
Hey Birdy God bless you much love 😊to you Love Frank
Birdy is just an angel. Because of her voice, her look, her behaviour..❤️✨
Desire,Desire,Desire 🎶🎵🐦🫂💫⭐
Love this woman. Love every song. Your new songs live performances are amazing.
..every pain is easier with your gentle songs dear Birdy
This song packs a punch. Wasn’t expecting that!
The ep Birdy is gonna release next month is exactly what we all need during these times. She's an angel
This was exactly the thing I needed to hear. Birdy's voice has never once failed to make my day better. I hope your day is filled with happiness and so much love xx
Another song from Birdy that makes tears fall again. Exhale and let go.
I know I commented earlier but I’m only just discovering this young lady’s music. What a genius she is, her work feels so personal, like she’s singing directly to me. Such a talent, just WOW!!
You’ve got 3 more albums to discover (soon the 4th). ;)
@@christopher1800 yeah I’ve got some catching up to do Christopher
Lol this was me, but a like 2 years ago, I love all her music. You learn to just appreciate her music the more you listen to it:)
Hey 👋 Birdy much love to you wish your days are filled with happiness 😊 love 💕 Frank
No autotune needed or something else. Just pure Talent 👌
my heart was shattered into pieces after hearing this song. i can relate to it so much :(((((
Dear Birdy, i hope your days are filled with HAPPINESS ❤. Amazing incredible touching song by Birdy💝
2:41 Finally, Birdy being a birdie.
she calms me down like no body else!
What an incredible lyricist and musician. This song is incredible
Birdy has the most beautiful voice, real and without background music just pure talent xx 💕
This song always gets me into a deep place and it came at a very apt time in my life. It's so weird how songs could so perfectly word out the emotions we have roiling up inside. Birdy's pen and musicianship is quite extraordinary!
How can she hit that high notes while sitting?!?! Wow. Bravado
Things less often talked about: the way your hands so gracefully float across the piano and the brilliance of your songwriting. This is no doubt because the expressive emotional beauty of your voice is unequaled in the world today.
EVERY SINGLE TRACK ON THIS EP HAS BEEN ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL SO FAR BUT THIS ONE!!? 😭 YOU BETTER SING THAT SONG GIRLLLL!!!!
Awakening in a dream while you hear Birdy singing is a beautiful gift to feel alive in this so unstable world and keep the faith for the best.
Absolutely beautiful.
This might be one of the most beautiful things I've heard in my entire life
how many feelings there are in this interpretation, makes the heart beat faster and the soul vibrate. How rich and beautiful to listen to you. Birdy always Birdy
We all needed you this year and you were there for us. Thank you Birdy. Love you.
Birdy has the voice of an angel
The word moving doesn’t do this song justice. Love it xxx
This piano melody is ridiculous, That high note towards the end... insane!
Birdy = Love 🙏❤
Birdy can touch your soul with her songs... I thank God for this gift!! God bless you, Birdy!
Every song she's releasing at the moment is just stunningly beautiful, and among her best. I don't think I've ever known someone release masterpiece after masterpiece like this - I'm amazed.
wow the lyric and the vocals are so powerful, it made me cry
Birdy siempre Birdy. Your hans 💞👍
Una de las mejores de la actualidad.
Si definitivamente eres encantadora....Totalmente
Angel living on Earth!
I think my repeat button is broken. What a song, what a voice! Birdys gift is simply out of this world, she is an extremely talented and outstanding artist. Incredible! 👏❤
This summer I met someone special.
All these feelings overflowing, chemicals in my brain making me feel things I forgot existed.
But as summer ended, things changed, we moved on and now it feels like nothing remains.
Damn this song hit me like a truck...
Wherever you are I hope your days are filled with happiness,
and I hope my name never taste of bitterness
and I hope who loves you, knows what they found
Thanks Birdy ❤️
"Justo en el kokoro"
Grazie x le emozioni che ci regali con la tua beautiful voice...e musica.. Thanks 🙏❤👏👏😘
Birdy's voice comes from heaven
listening to this song all day long, such captivating music. Birdy makes me feel, like everything is alright about this world, like beautiful people and musicians still exist here...
It's not up to you to build me up each time I fall. It's not up to you anymore....I hope my name never tastes of bitterness... These lines hit pretty deep every time! This is some beautiful penmanship for real
i cant stop my self from listening to this song over and over and over again , please save me xD
It breaks my heart that I will probably never be able to create anything as beautiful as this but can't help but feel pure happiness from simply being able to listen and feel this
Please play the birmingham symphony hall after all this Covid stuff is over. I want to hear every single note unadulterated, live. Your performances are incredible.
Thank you for the touching song and amazing performance as always!
It feels like meeting an angel in the middle of a forest.
♥️ it's not up to you to build me up but I hope your days are filled with happiness.
I could listen to Birdy all day!
Perfection, that's what it is. Unbelievable perfomance Jasmine
Ugh, Goddess! Bravo Birdy👏🤧💯💘💘💘 I love all of your songs😘💘
That moment you break down and cry for the loss of a cherished friendship, that this beautiful heart touching song explains so aptly
Absolutely beautiful and heartfelt Birdy. You are one of the few modern day artist who I actually listen to.
Einfach unglaublich diese Stimme! Gänsehaut am ganzen Körper vom ersten bis zum letzten Ton. Birdys Talent ist herausragend, was für eine tolle Künstlerin! 👏❤
Her voice is a balsam for the soul. So beautiful. 💗

Chris is the name of her ex boyfriend
@@BlackAndWhiteBlend Can you tell me what @C.B. commented here? Apparently the person deleted their own comment
