She wrote this when she was 16. Very powerful song to be written at any age, let alone as a teenager. I think sometimes we forget just how good a writer Kelly is. Sometimes her songwriting gets over shadowed by her unbelievably beautiful voice. We all have our own opinions about music, but for me Kelly is the best singer I've ever heard.
I’m a man in my mid 50’s in 2024…was in my mid 30’s with two young kids after a very hard divorce in 2001. I love music. But I never really followed American Idol all that much at the time. Yet, I was quite aware of who Clarkson was. Just by sheer marketing of the program in season one & her the winner, etc. But I can say without a doubt…Kelly’s vocals are most definitely in the Top 5 of any professional female singer/artist of all time. Not even a question. The best ever?🤔. Certainly she is arguably in that conversation. Regardless, she’s one of my top female vocalists. For my ears.
I Don't know if it's on purpose, but the sound of triumph, and then sobering sadness is really indicative of the feelings you get after living through a neglectful relationship. Truly amazing and relatable.
Growing up listening to this, you think shes singing about an ex lover. Listening as an adult you realize shes singing about her mom, and the mistakes she made that affected her daughter in big ways. This song is for all the sons and daughters who were never allowed to be children, because they had to be parents to their parents. ❤❤❤ I understand now
My oldest daughter taught me a very good lesson in life I am a 24year Cancer survivor and due to my illness she took on my roll as a Mother. It wasn't her job but now we deal with some resentment she helped me along the way and has always been my rock and we're still on this journey together we've got this and I love you Stephanie Gerlach Beach❤❤❤❤❤
Yep! It's amazing how triggering this son is and how it can bring us to this place of being ashamed, emply and utterly alone in seconds. Even if we have had the opportunity to process all the events that provoked these feelings... which is my case. Yep I am right there with you.
😢😢😢my daughter sent this song,my mom never loved me & I’ve always been overprotective of my kids,I was strict bt I want to say I’m srry to my kids if I ever made u feel afraid!!that’s how I feel cuz of my mom.May God heal us!! I love u Sunshine ❤❤😢😢😢😢mama
Please make sure to apologise to them. My parents never did, despite the abuse they inflicted upon me. And I've always wanted an apology. I hope you've done that since you wrote this comment. Sending love and healing your way
It took 46 years and Kelly Clarkson to show me what I'm really mad about..... I never know how to deal with what my dad did. Just don't wait 46 years to work out those issues
Good morning 🌞🌄 beautiful picture 🖼️😍 of a Day 💐🌞. I love you all.I just love because love dwells in me. No matter what I do ❤️😭 I am so clear on this uncloudy day I am his and he is mine. Thank you God for the beginnings and the beautiful endings. God let me rise each morning and remember not to forget your love and abiding peace with in my soul.
Growing up with a toxic mother not understanding what you did? Why she’s so angry at you? Then realizing it was never really me but her taking out all her past trauma on me. Now as an adult I’m having to deal with it. Learning to cope differently and end the cycle. To be a better person. ❤
no literally me!!! i wish she could suck up her pride and apologize to me, I'm not an adult yet but I'm almost an adult and I've always struggled with the relationship I had with my mom.
This song reminds me of my parents and our broken home. Though we're still complete but I can always feel it, the pain of not letting go. I still remember, ma, when you told me that you're only staying for us-your children.
this song and numb by linkin park reminds me a lot about my teenage life. i heard both song around that time, just like it because the music is nice later found out about the lyric. growing up in abusive house, not loving parents gave me depression till i became adult. now 33yo im still not ready for any kind of relationship. im afraid i would turn just like my parents
@saraclayton7331 don't invalidate her story. It can be suffocating when you don't have personal space. Thats not healthy relationship believe me,it's pretty damn toxic.
If you could just restart your childhood.. And erase those "because of you" experiences... Maybe it would create a new person in me.. Confident, happy and successful person... 💔😢 Because of you... A very sad song.. Childhood trauma greatly affects a persons personality, choices, and relationships..
My Mother left me afraid, my husband left me for another, I hope I didn't leave my son afraid like I was, there is hope and love on the other side, take that leap of faith
so this song came out in really early 2000's, i could look it up but too high. anyhow.... i thought it was about a boyfriend, for like 20 years. (i was a tween and teen 2001-2008, besides the point!) so i relistened to it, and omg it's about her dad. and i have been on a big healing journey with all these CPTSD repressed memories and dear lords. i'm crying, it describes everything i subconsciously felt to a big T
@Kim-ok5tn sadly at the time, I didn't see how bad my parents were. It was after the rose colored glasses came off only last year, I finally see what it's about
I was hurt very badly as a young boy by someone I trusted deeply and now I can't even sleep in the dark without being afraid of something terrible happening
npaka smart ni papajoms walang kapaguran..tuwang tuwa c bb carl habang pinapanood c papa Joms 🥰💛⭐💛 pang tanggal stress ang jomcarl team forever solid 💛💛💛
I didn't know this song was about her mom now that I listen to her words it reminds me of the relationship me and my mom had she passed in 2013 and tbh im glad she was to much to deal with. I love her dearly but she leaned to much on her small kids to make her happy
I hope he, my son doesn't feel afraid like i did, i pray my mistakes never lead him to never believe in true love, all it takes is letting go and having a leap of faith, ,i want to leave you in good hands with someone that loves you
I think I got him there, he just needs to let that guard down, I never meant for him to feel that way, not all marriages are bad, I just want him to be happy and feel secure. I won't always be there, so I want to leave him in good hands, but I trust his own judgment as well 😮
I didn't come from a broken home or dysfunctional childhood but I remember this song used to always play at the beach house I used to live in and I still miss it there. Sometimes places never leave us.
What's the problem with doing it if we then raise our kids doing the best we can? No matter how painful/hard it can be sometimes, life is still the miraculous thing we have, so why wouldn't we want to give it to other human beings?
My father cheated on my mother a few months after I graduated college. I always told myself I'd get in a relationship after finishing my studies. I never did. I don't think I ever can. I don't think I can ever allow myself to be vulnerable in front of anyone. I don't think I can ever let anyone in. I'm almost 30. I'll probably be alone forever. Kelly was right. Later on you'll realize how empty your life has been, being too careful. You'll realize time has passed and you have yet to build any meaningful relationship because you can't trust anyone.
This song is for a girl I never talked to but in fact I like her before. She was in my high school in 2010. But I never have encouragement to say hi to her
I wish my dad knows English so that i can send him this. Love the dude, he loves me too, so much.. But with the way that it's painful and limiting. Love you dad!
This song reminds me of honestly both of my parents. As I've gotten older, my mother and I have gotten closer, but still.. an arm length away. Love always.. but trust. Not sure if that'll ever be 100%
When I heard this song I didn't like it but I love it, it reminds me of my cousin she is the one that thought me l love her❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ love Stephanie. ❤❤❤❤❤❤

Kelly is indeed a good singer and my childwood, a young girl that made history with her talent, because of her we have this beautiful memories 💚
I did not know she wrote this.

stap im crying
I agree. I was living this song and now I am also making the same mistake to my own kids, i play this song reminding myself to stop the cycle.
The video of this song shows her mother/parents
yesss i agree
It can really go both ways, of any relationship
This is a tribute to my parents. Thanking you for scarring me so deeply.
And leaving me forever wounded.
“I cannot cry because I know it’s weakness in your eyes” that hit me so hard-😭
Reminds me of my mother, thank god she been dead since 2020 and i can start to heal slowly. And my family can.
Forgive her it’s the key. I’m trying to perfect what I’m preaching.
🥹
My mom died in 2013 and im very angry with her she passed when I was 16 she left me with her babies 😔
:( I feel this
This song makes me so grateful for my Dad 👨 ♥️
I'm glad you got positive feelings from this song. I don't have a good dad, and I always want people with good dads to appreciate theirs.
My oldest daughter taught me a very good lesson in life I am a 24year Cancer survivor and due to my illness she took on my roll as a Mother.

Congratulations for introducing our musical mate! great
Sad to say I relate to this song :’(
“Because of you I’m ashamed of my life because it’s empty”

My Baby's mother took her away, and I'm ashamed she doesn't know who I am.

I listened to that song years and years and I learned to let go all the pain the anger the loneliness all the depression and I lived
It took 46 years and Kelly Clarkson to show me what I'm really mad about..... I never know how to deal with what my dad did. Just don't wait 46 years to work out those issues
I forgot how strong this song hits
I feel this song is close to me as if it tells the story of my life😢
Holy shit same..
What a sad song!.The singer with a great voice.!!
God heal everyone Here!♡
Never in my life has a song exposed me. I needed this

I didn't know Kelly Clarkson wrote a song about how my mom makes me feel.
Oh wow I'm sorry please don't be sad. 😞❤
I got the same bad experience in my live with my mom,so I figure how you feeling
I'm genuinely sorry❤
Same
Forgive her. It’s the key to our healing, may peace be with you.

Same story my friend
Simple and one time great melody! Thanks
Only music heals my broken hearted,,,, it calms my heartaches every time I hear my fav song,, ❤
I relate to this song so much
A song I can easily imagine my overprotective mother in.
Please, mom, let me fail, let me learn, let me live my life, let me be myself, I'm 26...
Hhhhhhhhhh
I wish my mom cared about me. I would give anything for her to be “to much” in my life.
I can absolutely relate
just block her
@saraclayton7331 don't invalidate her story. It can be suffocating when you don't have personal space. Thats not healthy relationship believe me,it's pretty damn toxic.
The lyrics of this song are sad and true 💯 It makes one very emotional when memories come 'flooding' back 😭
If you could just restart your childhood.. And erase those "because of you" experiences... Maybe it would create a new person in me.. Confident, happy and successful person... 💔😢
Because of you... A very sad song.. Childhood trauma greatly affects a persons personality, choices, and relationships..
Childhood trauma affects you for a lifetime. You spend your entire adulthood dealing with the pain from your childhood.
@@lifeisbannanasI feel that 💯
Spot on😢😢
honestly, i feel like as i grow up its been getting worse 😭😭
I would die to listen your lyrics cause your lyrics just hits different!
Love this song, I've learned the hard way to not let anyone get to close to me. 🙏😇😥🙏😇
Written for all the people whose mothers ruined their lives. 😢
Well, I need the father version.
@@Furiafelina songs can be whatever you interpret them as. Sending hugs
*fathers* for me anyways 😢
It's both spirm doner and egg doner for me
My dad..
Thanx for this amzing song❤
2:26 😊 thank you 😊
Oh my god beautiful song❤️🥰
Having an absent parent is really difficult, when the other parent just passed away 😞
Thank oh my Lord . Father ❤🙏🙏🙏
This song is beautiful so much 🥺♥️
I can't believe I let someone hurt me as bad as you did, and I'm afraid and that is not right, I am a strong woman😢😢
This is about the person who raised me ❤️🩹
My Mother left me afraid, my husband left me for another, I hope I didn't leave my son afraid like I was, there is hope and love on the other side, take that leap of faith

I was 6 when it came out at it was clearly it was about her parents because I felt exactly the same way about mine at the time.
@Kim-ok5tn sadly at the time, I didn't see how bad my parents were. It was after the rose colored glasses came off only last year, I finally see what it's about
@@MissyAmber89 they probably weren't that bad then
Amazing song.
When you know what this song is really about, it hits so different omg... For those who don't know, it's about her dad who left her
I Love This Song So Much
I was hurt very badly as a young boy by someone I trusted deeply and now I can't even sleep in the dark without being afraid of something terrible happening
What a song! I 💜 lovely.. I can't stop hearing from 💜💜
Devoted to the kids that saw too much
Idk what happened to us💔 we were okay back then, Papa. Years passed but until now I’m still not healed.
Hope you’re doing better these days
This song hits me in all aspects, I guess I’m really broken…

I like this very much❤❤❤
Who is 2024?
❤
Because of you, I don't know how to let anyone else in. Because of you, I am afraid
This song perfectly depicts being raised by a narcissistic parent or even worse by 2 narcissisting parents at the same time! 💔💔💔
Im forced to fake a smile, a laugh every day of my life unfortunately this is too relatable
This song is the absolute stuff. 2024. Women rule
I love this song. Ngayon ko lang nalaman ang title BECAUSE OF YOU....

Kelly was right. Later on you'll realize how empty your life has been, being too careful. You'll realize time has passed and you have yet to build any meaningful relationship because you can't trust anyone.
This song goes out to my father who is made multiple attempts on my life and 😢 I think he may succeed. Please say prayer 🙏.
Essa música é maravilhosa
I know a couple of people who need to hear this.
Still here in 2024 ❤
This song is for a girl I never talked to but in fact I like her before. She was in my high school in 2010. But I never have encouragement to say hi to her

This song reminds me of the movie "A Look From Paradise"
It makes me sad memo 😢❤
Just started singing this after years of not hearing it.
Love this song❤️
