The story was 100% genuine. James's father stage 4 kidney disease and this song and video was made to show awareness and appeal for a kidney donor. His father did find a donor and subsequently is doing well after having his kidney transplant. The older man in the video was James's real father.
@@setonhillstudios My apologies, I didn't know that there was a donation requirement for music reactions. I can't afford it, as I'm paralyzed and I'm on disability, so I have a very limited income. Thanks anyway!!
@@stevenangle8407 As of July, I no longer take paid requests for guaranteed reactions because it got too crazy! The donations are simply if you dig the channel but are never required or expected! I read the comments and get my requests from there these days! So sorry you had to go through all that and hang in there! I just appreciate you watching and hanging out! Have a blessed day!
This is his actual father who had end stage kidney disease. No kidney donors could be found however as a direct result of this video a distant cousin came forward. The cousin was a match and donated a kidney so his dad is still alive today. A great outcome but this video still hits hard for most people. James Blunt is a brilliant singer and songwriter with a great sense of humour.
@@setonhillstudios Just to add to the whole story too, part of the reason James's dad's kidney(s) was an issue was because he only had one, having previously been a donor himself. Both were also cavalry officers in the military too, with his dad being a Colonel and James a Captain. James was deployed and served as an armoured reconnaissance officer in the NATO deployment in Kosovo and whenever either had to go away on duty, their line(s) was: "I'm not your son, you're not my father, we're just two grown men saying goodbye". A typically stiff underlip attitude from the British class system.
That little pat on the arm Charles Blunt gives James at the very end of the video gets me in the feels EVERY. TIME. It's such a simple gesture that speaks volumes.
His father had donated a kidney years ago, then he himself needed one. They are. both military veterans. After the shoot there was not a dry eye. His father said why is everyone crying I'm not dead yet.
He only had around 4 weeks to find a donor. This video found a distant Ozzy relative who matched and donated. At the time of the video, Jaems had given up hope and just wanted a song for his dad. ALL profits went to Veterans charities. Honourable men, both.
@@setonhillstudios Then he had to be isolated due to covid. He is still with us and doing well. They are both ex officers in the army so stiff upper lip. They used to be sent to conflicts and wars and "2 grown men saying goodbye" iss how they said I love you
When my father passed in April.. The sorrow I seen in both my brothers eyes wrecked me..I am the only daughter and my relationship with my father was different then theirs..it was loving and my dad was my pillar.. But for my brothers.. They had a rocky relationship with our dad because they where so much like him and the hurt I heard in their voices on how it was too late was pure agony cause I knew I couldn't take away the pain and loss they felt. I listen to this song to let my pain out ..I quietly mourn so they don't have to carry my pain also..this song helps me in some weird way...thanks for the reaction.
This song of James Blunt’s, “Monsters” was a heartfelt tribute to his father. The emotional track reflects the deep bond between them and a touching farewell. In the music video for “Monsters,” James Blunt sings directly to the camera, his eyes welling up with tears...The video is so powerful because sitting beside James Blunt is his real-life dad, Colonel Charles Blount. who was a former cavalry officer, & battling stage 4 chronic kidney disease. The song captures the raw emotions of facing mortality and saying the things one wants to say to a loved one before it’s too late 💗 I can never get through this, without crying..........
@@Trish-ql9kz My sincere condolences! I can’t imagine the pain you feel but I hope each day becomes alittle brighter than the last! Have a blessed day and thanks for hanging out for a bit! 🙏🏻❤️
This one hits hard, especially singing it to his father for the first time. I don't know how he had the strength to get through this performance. It was filmed in one take as well. Great reaction 💜💜
1st time hearing this song I got to the point his dad put his hand on James' arm and moved his thumb before bawling. The line "we're just two grown men saying goodbye" was what they both said when they were leaving for military postings. When my mum passed, she was hanging on and I had to tell her that my siblings and I would be okay and she could rest now. She passed holding my hand. To have the tables turnt from parent and child is bittersweet but wouldn't change the memory for the world ❤
James dad was actually dying from kidney disease & this was his tribute & farewell to his dad. Thankfully his dad received a donor kidney & is doing okay now. If this song doesn't get to you emotionally, there is something wrong with you. This song resonates with me as I was my dad's caregiver for 5 years until he passed away 4 years ago.
This is one of the most emotionally impactful songs and videos I have ever seen. What makes it hit home even more is that James Blunt is one of the funniest and self-deprecating people there is.
It's a great song. I wasn't able to be there when my dad passed away at age 54. When my mom passed away, though, I was there, along with my oldest daughter, my youngest daughter, and my sister, and my daughters' kids, and we were able to get my brother online on my sister's laptop, and though she couldn't talk to us by then, we got to see her eyes light up and she nodded her head, and we knew she understood that we were there for her, and then she was gone, a few hours later. It was tough, but she had been in a lot of pain, etc., for a long time, and she had been seeing my dad every day, and the day before she "left," she was talking to Jesus who had walked into the room and stayed with her for a while. I'm glad James' dad didn't actually leave him that day, but the song from his heart is still very powerful, and a reminder to many people about how life and love "go around." Thanks for the great reaction.
Thanks so much for sharing that heartfelt memory Linda! ❤️ Just a reminder of how quickly life moves and to cherish the time we have with those we love! Have a great day!
I still cannot get through this song, rips my insides out.. I lost my mother in a car accident when i was 13, i was the 2nd oldest of 5 brothers, my dad sent me and my older brother to live with our grandmother, he never recovered from the loss of his wife and i still at 57 years old have not recovered from the loss of my mom. I lost my father to cancer when i was 53 and even though our relationship died when my mom passed, i always loved him and i know he loved me, he just had a hard time showing it. As i type this with tears flowing, the pain will never go away. I never had a chance to be a son to my mother or father. Still battle with myself on how to cope with this.
Hello. I have watcjed hundreds of reactions to videos, but I think this one must be the most ct ifficult to react to. You are either left speechless or you couldn't hold back your tears. Such a strong performance by James, singing through tears as he contemplated his father's final days. As you have read in other comments, they found a match as he did have a transplant and is doing well. Love a happy ending. ❣🙏
This was a beautiful thoughtful reaction. Interesting small observation after watching this song many times - you can see James look very directly at his father for the first time and see in his body language that he is looking for support and ... that is when his father moves his hand onto James' arm for the first time. Right at the end of the video his Dad does this again. Just beautiful
The story behind this song changed a lot of people lives as it made people join the donor register worldwide so it literally chased the monsters away. All the proceeds from this song were donated to the Help the Heroes charity of great Britain which helps take care of our veterans and their families as both Colonol Charles Blunt and Captain James Blunt were both in the British army.
very true story and he did this in 1 take, amazing. I lost my dad when i was 5 but i remember things about him and this song really hits my heart every time i hear it. I can never get through it without crying so yes real men do cry :)
James and his father were both former officers in the British military, and I heard that James donated all the proceeds of this amazing video to the UK charity 'Help For Heroes' who do so much fantastic work with and for ex-servicemen and ex-servicewomen, and God bless him for that. 🙋♂🙋♂
James and his father were both military men, james was in the military he was a Captain in the British army. When he was being deployed, his father would say: "You're not my son, I'm not your father, we're just two grown men saying goodbye...". This song breaks me every time I hear it. The video was shot in one take, because James wanted the emotion to be raw and genuine. His father was diagnosed with terminal kidney disease and this was written as a goodbye. In a positive irony, the song was so popular, it got the attention of a distant relative who turned out to be a match for a kidney donation and his dad is now doing great. He spent all of 2020 in isolation 👍🏻😁🏴
James chased away the monsters with this song! Because of this song a distant cousin heard it and gave his father a kidney transplant that matched. What a lovely tribute to his father. Even the toughest man will cry during this song. If not he has no heart. Thank you for sharing your true emotions. Hugs. ❤❤❤
One of the most heartbreaking songs i have ever heard, to know its James's dad in the video is so emotional no wonder he could only do it in one take. 9:36
IF YOU LOOK AT THE END JAMES FARTHER STILL WANTS TO COMFORT JAMES AND TRY TO TELL HIM IT IS OK. THAT WAS THE MOST HEART BREAK I EVER FELT. BOTH OF THEM LOVE EACH OTHER SO MUCH. MAY GOD BLESS EVERY ONE ON THIS PLANET WHO LOVES THEIR PARENTS. I LOVE MY MOTHER AND LOOK AFTER HER BUT SHE ALWAYS SAY AND SHOW ME I AM NOT GOOD ENOUGH. I SAM THE ONLY ONE LOOKING AFTER HER WHEN MY OTHER SIBLINGS WHO ARE MORE THAN ME IN HER EYES. SHE STAYS WITH ME. PAYS NOTHING EATS 3 TIMES A DAY AND STILL I AM NOT GOOD ENOUGH. THAT IS WHY MONSTERS OF JAMES BLUNT TEARS ME UP TO A MESS EVERY TIME. GOD BLESS U GUYS OUT THERE.
Definitely an emotional tune! Sorry you are going through that and all any of us can do is the best we can even if others don’t always see it! Hang in there and thanks for stopping by the channel!
His dad had end stage kidney disease and was going to die. Luckily someone donated their kidney to him and he is alive today. I think the person was a family member that contact them after seeing this video but I am not sure about that.
I heard this song a month after my dad died in 2020 after he had a stroke. He fought so hard for a month and a half and 2 weeks after the pandemic mom and my older sister made the decision to remove life support because he wasn't coming back. The hospital let us say goodbye even though they wanted to break the rules and let us all be there but mom was the only one allowed when he passed away. She let us know with a text. We were there every day or at least every other day and the hospital was 2 hours away so mom was pretty much living at the hospital so his doctors and nurses became family. When covid hit visits were stopped. Two of my sisters and I work in nursing homes so we understood why. We just hope dad did. Saying that last goodbye and not wanting to let go of his hand was the worst pain I've ever felt. Please hug your fathers for me because I can't hug mine but I'll always love him. 💔
It gets everyone who watches it Thats his dad first time he sang if for he's dad Dying from kidney disease James wanted the tears and imperfect stuff left in After a distance family member seen the clip he contacted them Got tested and was a match and donated a kidney as no other family member was they knew Now his dads alive and its him in the clip Both military men and strong They used to but heads Why the line at the start we are just to grown men who know each other Cheers mate 🦘🇦🇺👍
@@setonhillstudios unfortunately it's life and reality nothing can be done Life will dictate our futures and the best we can do is remember to enjoy every day Try not to sweat over the little things in life I'm a believer we all have different path ways as it's to teach us so we can handle what's coming next Just love the people and time you have around you as today get tied up in possession As thats what schools and government's push when where kids My grand parent and parent where very self sufficient and grew and hunted food chooks rabbits Made everything pickled smoked meat as preservative and moderate dewlings they built My grandparents got married after grandfather built the home made from timber frame corrugated steel Interior horse hair plaster and timber walls floors with wood stove That my grandmother cooked on for 3 generations and never forgotten the depression nieter my parents So enjoy the people around you everyday as we never know when will see them again Cheers mate 🦘🇦🇺👍
The production company wanted to clean up the soundtrack, with the quavering, cracks, etc., but James pushed back, and insisted it needed to be the raw, unpolished version. He was right. Of course, 'unpolished' does not quite describe it when the performer is as professional and experienced as James.
It is such a personal song that we all can relate to but I cannot stand the choir at the end.. it was an intimate song between a father and son.. it drives me crazy when every song has a choir or a "guest" rapper
Yeah that was a unique composition choice but the song was so beautiful and has helped so many people! I’m sure James made that choice for a particular reason. Thanks for watching!
Just a different way of reacting. We will never be the channel that sits quietly until the end, just not our style. We understand it’s not for everybody ✌🏼

After a distance family member seen the clip he contacted them
Got tested and was a match and donated a kidney as no other family member was they knew

Life will dictate our futures and the best we can do is remember to enjoy every day

I'm a believer we all have different path ways as it's to teach us so we can handle what's coming next
Just love the people and time you have around you as today get tied up in possession
As thats what schools and government's push when where kids
My grand parent and parent where very self sufficient and grew and hunted food chooks rabbits
Made everything pickled smoked meat as preservative and moderate dewlings they built
My grandparents got married after grandfather built the home made from timber frame corrugated steel
Interior horse hair plaster and timber walls floors with wood stove
That my grandmother cooked on for 3 generations and never forgotten the depression nieter my parents
So enjoy the people around you everyday as we never know when will see them again

Let's face it folks and call a spade a spade...this is the heaviest song ever recorded............JMHO !
He’s not big back in the day. He’s been big since back in the day and still is.

Since you like emotional music,music that touches your soul...try Eva CASSIDY OVER THE RAINBOW LIVE
Awesome, thanks for the suggestion!
Iam Tongi was good, but there's nothing like the original, nothing like the emotion that Blunt brings.
Shewee! You ain’t lying! Just the video and the overall emotion in the performance was like none other! Amazing!
@@setonhillstudios If you've ever had your heart torn out from a break up, Goodbye My Lover is almost as good by James as well.
@@sonofjay817 Thanks for the suggestion!
The production company wanted to clean up the soundtrack, with the quavering, cracks, etc., but James pushed back, and insisted it needed to be the raw, unpolished version. He was right. Of course, 'unpolished' does not quite describe it when the performer is as professional and experienced as James.
Great point and it was obviously a great decision for such an emotional tune! Thanks for the insight!
It is such a personal song that we all can relate to but I cannot stand the choir at the end.. it was an intimate song between a father and son.. it drives me crazy when every song has a choir or a "guest" rapper
Yeah that was a unique composition choice but the song was so beautiful and has helped so many people! I’m sure James made that choice for a particular reason. Thanks for watching!
Good news tho. This song got his dad a kidney.
That’s what someone else was sharing! So thankful there was a happy ending to this! 🙏🏻
Why ruin the song by cutting in ,WHY NOT LET PLAY🤔🙄
Just a different way of reacting. We will never be the channel that sits quietly until the end, just not our style. We understand it’s not for everybody ✌🏼
This is a reaction video. We want to see his reaction. If you don't want any interruptions, go watch the original video.
@@DeeDeex2 Thank you 😁 Appreciate you watching and hanging out!
Why not just let the song play,wait till the end🙄🤔
We understand our style ain’t for everyone. Have a great one!
❤️❤️❤️
