That tear at the end was... just a perfect ending of a perfect, emotionally devastating song. Oh Chris, are you aware of what you're doing with our hearts?
Holy jesus crist of fcking awesomness. I know plenty of songs from Lord of the Lost. I know they can du amazing ballads. But holy crap: I never head so much goosebumps because of a song for a long time. Simply amazing.
Well, personally I have to say that I think people are the most beautiful when they cry. Not because I want to stand above them or am a sadist, but because I think it is incredibly beautiful to see the level of sincerity being conveyed through this act.
My better me would give you what you need And kill the speed But that ain't me That's just my better me My better me would bring you through the night And make it right But that ain't me I'm not my better me He is so much more than me More than I will ever be My better me My better me When I turn to walk away He would listen to you, stay He's not like me My better me My better me is not so mortified Fucked up inside But that ain't me That's just my better me My better me would leave you when it hurts Would stop the words Your misery I'm not my better me He is so much more than me More than I will ever be My better me My better me When I turn to walk away He would listen to you, stay He's not like me My better me My better me My better me My better me My better me My better me is not illogical, emotional From time to time so cynical No bullet and no cannonball Is never the epitome of arrogance and bigotry No advocate of irony No that is me I'm not my better me
Hm, I think I've read that it's the other way around, they made the "Matt Bellamy" song first, but don't remember who, told them not to and they change the lyrics into "My better me", yet they release it afterwards. Please, someone correct me on this, because I may be wrong or that what I've read was untrue.
@@Zeydrack It's written in description of "Matt Bellamy" video - that label rejected the song because it had silly lyrics. I believe it is a made-up story for April Fools, because "Matt Bellamy" video has been uploaded on April 1st, 2019.
es ist einfach schön Herrn Harms so ungestylt zu sehen.. viel authentischer als das ganze Gestyle.. hat er gar nicht nötig.. die Musik und die Stimme überzeugen auch pur..
I take this song as somebody struggling with mental health issues and being fully aware. He understands that he is hurting ppl around him but cannot himself, which he hates. It could also be a message of PTSD- a running theme in LOTL songs. It could be the man fighting against his PTSD, who makes him a different man. I have PTSD and I often feel like I have a “better me” and a “evil me”.
As a fan of their old stuff, I didn't like the latest two albums but I'm addicted to this song. Chris's voice is so beautiful and the music is just lovely but I think I'm addicted to this song because of how I can identify 100% with it, it hits me on a deep level.
This is absolutely... Brilliant I pomyśleć, że gdyby nie koncert ostatni Iron Maiden w Warszawie to pewnie w życiu bym nie usłyszał o Lord of the Lost.... Najlepsze, że to nie są/były moje klimaty. A dziś to mój ulubiony zespół.
Ja właśnie ich odkryłam.i nie mogę się oderwać. Po raz pierwszy od wielu lat mam ochotę pójść na koncert i jak na złość będą w moim kraju akurat gdy muszę wyjechać😢
@@misstitul Ja zrobiłam jeszcze głupszą rzecz...miałam okazję iść na koncert w październiku, ale pomyliłam ich z innym zespołem, którego nie lubię i olałam temat... A w styczniu facet ukradkiem wrzucił kilka piosenek na playlistę samochodową i przepadłam.
Ich mag beide Versionen sehr,es zeigt alle Gefühle die Du in diesem Moment hast. Und deine Stimme ist sowieso der Burner,Du rockst egal was Du singst,man bekommt nicht genug davon 👍😉💙
thats the difference between pop and metal. in pop you always get the same two topics. party or love. this is just so deep. everyone got an ideal self to which we can never hope to amount to.
Лучший я Дал бы тебе Всё, что тебе нужно, И снизил бы скорость, - Но это не я, А лишь лучший я. Лучший я, Пронёс бы тебя Сквозь ночь, Сделал бы всё верно, - Но это не я, Я не лучший я. Он гораздо сильнее меня И больше, чем я когда-либо буду, Лучший я. Если я разворачиваюсь, чтобы уйти, То он бы тебя выслушал, остался бы, Он не такой, как я, лучший я.

If it wasn't for watching rammstein on here I wouldn't have came across mono inc with Chris being in the video I wouldn't have came across lord of the lost or any other band absolutely loving his voice in his songs definitely sung from the heart
OMG... Ok, so I have always watched this on my phone, but I just watched it on a Hisense TV. Maybe it was the TV, maybe I'm just going crazy, I dunno, but I also just noticed that Chris's "better me" has a soft filter on to cover up the physical flaws that aren't covered on the other half. The fact that this is part of what's considered 'better' has me crying more than the lyrics 😭
listening "My Better Me" the first time: epic crying because I'm a shit as a boyfriend listening Matt Bellamy: ROFL listening "My Better Me" again: ROFLMAO but crying
Since with absolutely no pride I hold the title of "shittier boyfriend of the universe", I feel related with your comment, so I search Matt Bellamy. I do exactly the same as you now. :')
OMG - This is so emotional 😢. Yet it is so wonderful and I have a feeling it comes from his heart truley. So he is thinking so true for him to say in such a way as he did in this song. Something we do not know for sure, but we all still love you Chris ❤❤💋💋❤❤ We ALL have our days, but life goes on. ✌✌❤✌✌ we all feel like that at some point in our lifes. Sad but true 😔😢. Bonnie H. from Michigan--USA
Always have loved this song. Found it relatable about me and how i am in relationships. Then i just found out my attachment style is dismissive avoidant. So now it hits in a different way. A real truth i want to change
I'm glad you guys changed from Matt Bellamy and still released it cuz now you got two beautiful masterpieces. But this, damn. Hits home for everyone. I love it
German Dark Symphonic Metal Band Lord Of The Lost sings their ”My Better Me.” Chris Harms can really sing it. At times I guess we wish we all could be better, the truth is we are who we are. ”My Better Me” is off ”Swan Songs II”released 06 September 2017. A Review of this album said ”he creates Really Dark Classical Metal Music.” Wooooohooooo!! Love it! 🎸😎🤘🏻
It is so well-written, so calming to listen to. It's just the part at 1:27 that stands out lmao kinda breaks the momentum but otherwise I sat pinned to chair, listening and watching.
I hadn’t thought about that but I absolutely agree with you. That is a beautiful way of describing this song and its sound. I can definitely see Gilmour doing a cover of this. Maybe even a duo with Chris? Oh that would be epic! Gilmour still has it!
Chris is just an incredible actor, all that emotion in face and voice.
We all wish to be better versions of ourselves. This is such a beautiful display and vocal expression of our wish to be better. Lovely.
This song never gonna be the same after Matt Bellamy
ikr?? 😂😂
LOL.
I still like this one better,
@@lorettawilson7264 search for LOTL - Matt belamy
😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆it's true!
@@motherstar1Way Better
So emotional, the pain I see in your eyes Chris is heartbreaking. I can relate to this song as I'm sure a lot of other souls do as well.
That tear at the end was... just a perfect ending of a perfect, emotionally devastating song. Oh Chris, are you aware of what you're doing with our hearts?
Best LOOK of Chris---my opinion
Holy jesus crist of fcking awesomness. I know plenty of songs from Lord of the Lost. I know they can du amazing ballads. But holy crap: I never head so much goosebumps because of a song for a long time. Simply amazing.
Chris Harms is so irresistible - even when he cries!
I don't want him to cry
Well, personally I have to say that I think people are the most beautiful when they cry. Not because I want to stand above them or am a sadist, but because I think it is incredibly beautiful to see the level of sincerity being conveyed through this act.
Did he cry? I didn't notice.
Is he THAT gutsy to let anyone see that? I'm female, and I don't even have the guts for that!
Shoot, I think he did start to cry a little bit! Anyone would though
Wow this is awesome chris harms. 5 stars for you. Bravo LOTL❤ Sending love respect and support from 🇵🇭🇮🇱
Oh my god, this made me cry because this is just so beautifully done but also I relate to this song too much.
Rosalynd same. This song is just one of quite a few other songs that describe me
Rosalynd yes I know 😭😭
Everyone relates to this song
I think we all do...
Same way too much
I listened to Matt Bellamy first and I loved the music. So I'm checking the serious one. Both are gold
Diese Stimme. Dieser Text. Gänsehaut! Und die ganze Zeit denke ich, diesmal heule ich nicht. Stimmt nie.
Von Lord of the Lost kann man sich echt jedes Lied anhören. Durch Zufall entdeckt und sofort verbissen. Passiert sehr selten !!
My better me would give you what you need
And kill the speed
But that ain't me
That's just my better me
My better me would bring you through the night
And make it right
But that ain't me
I'm not my better me
He is so much more than me
More than I will ever be
My better me
My better me
When I turn to walk away
He would listen to you, stay
He's not like me
My better me
My better me is not so mortified
Fucked up inside
But that ain't me
That's just my better me
My better me would leave you when it hurts
Would stop the words
Your misery
I'm not my better me
He is so much more than me
More than I will ever be
My better me
My better me
When I turn to walk away
He would listen to you, stay
He's not like me
My better me
My better me
My better me
My better me
My better me
My better me is not illogical, emotional
From time to time so cynical
No bullet and no cannonball
Is never the epitome of arrogance and bigotry
No advocate of irony
No that is me
I'm not my better me
I just love that they turned this raw emotion into a love song for Matt Bellamy
Hm, I think I've read that it's the other way around, they made the "Matt Bellamy" song first, but don't remember who, told them not to and they change the lyrics into "My better me", yet they release it afterwards.

So ... i doubt it
One of the most unusual, honest and beautiful songs ever written....♡☆
The original is about Matt from the band 'Muse'. The original has a music video as well.
@Miss Yancey I wasn't joking, there is another version. It might not be the original...but it's out there.
@Miss Yancey OK.
es ist einfach schön Herrn Harms so ungestylt zu sehen.. viel authentischer als das ganze Gestyle.. hat er gar nicht nötig.. die Musik und die Stimme überzeugen auch pur..
Eine Stimme wie warmer Karamell - so schön und tief und voll

I can relate to this. 😢
This is me.. you... everyone...
This song is like a diamond, shine! Great job, Chris! ❤️
The video is perfect for the song. Chris Harms is a genius.
@Napalm Records Wer auch immer die Idee zu dieser Videoauflösung hatte, dem gehört die Hand geschüttelt. Genial. Danke.
Total tiefgründig und einfach eine wunderbare Melodie 🎶💜.
It is an exceptional artist that can draw forth the necessary emotion to make their songs work, to actually feel the song.
It's wonderful, sincerely, touchingly!
Everyone has "My Better Me"
I know why im not my "better me" anymore and it hurts but i cant do anything about it in 2018..
and everyone has matt bellamy
I love Chris's voice
Such a beautiful song 😢
The lyrics speak to me so much right now !
Beautiful and deep.
Die Worte bewegen mich auch hier, in Kombination mit deiner Stimme, deinem Gesicht.

i'm a death metal kinda guy but this is a masterpiece. beautiful
This is my favorite song in Swan Songs II as I relate to it. The video really shows the emotions put in the song. Love it!
Was für ein tolles Stück.... Läuft in Dauerschleife! Gänsehaut ohne Ende.
Live ist garantiert noch viel schöner 😉😍❤
Deine Stimme is der Hammer,geht durch und durch,der Song sowieso,ich liebe ihn.Danke dafuer🌸
After more than1 year, I still get tears in my eyes listening to in.
Toller Song,,,,, klasse idee des Videos,,,, typisch Lord of the Lost immer wieder neu erfinden... TOP
der schmerz und das licht, wenn man sein leben in diesem song erkennen muß, ob man will oder nicht...more than words !
This is absolutely... Brilliant
