"Because death is just too full and man too small, and I'm scared of what's behind and what's before." One of the most poignant and reflective verses I've ever heard in music. If you've ever had to contemplate your own mortality or that of a loved one for whatever reason these words hold so much meaning. Incredibly powerful!!
"Love will not break your heart, but dismiss your fears." I miss the feeling of being loved. It's been so long. I don't mean to sound sappy, but it's really the truth: knowing that you're something special to someone else is a feeling that is unparalleled.
This is my favorite Mumford and Son's song. incredibly beautiful and vulnerable. It amazes me that this song has the ability to reach inside the hearts of so many and touchs a similar spot in everyone. So powerful, real and lovely.
Every video of this song you can see Marcus crying this song must really mean a lot to him, you can see its coming from the heart. What a song gives me chills every time i hear it.. Long live mumford and sons.
When I was in an abusive relationship a friend learned this song and played it for me. I found the courage to get out and have now been dating my best friend for 6.5 years. This song still makes me cry happy tears every time.
My friend Kim died unexpectedly (a stroke) and someone sang this at her memorial service. It was probably the hardest moment of the whole afternoon. Heartbreaking.
This song is so organic... it leaves me filled with joy and a feeling that there is something bigger out there... that despite our "fear of what's behind and what's before", everything wil be fine, "you'll see". This song is so uplifting!
I can't even handle the emotions involved in listening to this song, god only knows how emotional writing it must of been. Gives me hope to believe in a better tomorrow, no matter how bad today might appear.
refreshing to see bands like this. it's all about live performing and real fucking music. music you can enjoy, music that helps you through tough times.
Ahh I never want this song to end. Whenever it stops it's kind of like a shock, like a realize where I am, and I remember to start breathing again. Keep on rocking Mumford :)
I first heard this epic and touching song while watching Stargate Universe and at great effort tracked it down. It does not matter how often I hear it brings a tear to my eye.
I truly hope, at some point in my life, I will see this great band play live. I have never been so drawn to a band, or music, in my life! I hope they stay true to their sound and not let the stardom take ruin on their music.
This song always gives me chills! I don't know what it is, but this song is so strong and everytime I'm sad I listen to this song and cry even harder. Because I know there will come a time when love doesn't break hearts and there will be no tears. I just wish that time will come soon .. (l)
they always put so much emotion into singing it, it makes them very enjoyable to listen to. it also comforted me when my girlfriend broke up with me, i really could cry my heart out and feel like new after it :)
My ex wife played this for me the day she left me, that was the worst day and best day of my life, I just didn’t know it yet. It’s hard to understand why things happen the way they do but sometimes we just need to have faith and know that there’s a bigger plan for each of us if we allow it to happen.
There's always a next chapter in our lives...just have to learn to stop reading the previous chapter to be able to move forward and let the new chapter develop
I will always be devoted to art for this incredible song. This is the final demonstration that a song could be more influent than every person you could meet. Mumford&Sons are my favourite band ever, but i'm sure and I swear that difficultly I'll read lyrics like these God bless art
@hookedonMuSe aren't they absolutely inbelieveable? such talent...I have never had a group that has affected my life like they have....there are no words to describe it...I'm sure you must have the same feeling, one that we don't even all the way understand....
when asked by my older brother what my favorite m&s song was my favorite, i got really angry, and told him not to make me choose cuz id die, but told him that a few that came to mind were white blank page, little lion man, the cave, thistle and weeds, and after the storm, and told him to quit bugging me, that i was listening to winter winds, which is also a great song that pops into my mind :)
Totally agree RosaMe ElAno. This was a good time to see Mumford & Sons, when the songs were new, the venues small and the audiences knew the difference between the 'singalong' songs (Little Lion Man, The Cave etc) and the songs where you just stfu and listen!
So check this out... I saw this scene and it hit me hard really hard like all the sad montage scenes in SGU. A little while later I was watching Jimmy Kimmel Live and they were the featured band... While they were playing I thought to myself "Wow these guys are really good and sound like a band they would put in SGU." so I have been listening to them since... And just now I said to myself "You know what! They were on there weren't they!!!" Well I was right. I Love how life works. : )
@MLynnJo What perfect timing!! I am, as I type, out-the-door ready to go see them here in San Pedro, CA! My hands are sweaty and I can't stop smiling! I'm SO HAPPY! They have hit me like a ton of bricks! I learned all the lyrics in the past month, and now I'm ready to give them some love back! Their music drills to your core, and brings to the surface something you had been missing in your life! IT'S CATHARTIC! (The band MUSE did that to me also) That's the best I can do to describe it! :D
God this really freakin' hurts, man. They're awesome. And now, in the comment section i found out that johnny flynn toured with them? two of the best artists in their genre. I hate not living in england.
and i will die alone and be left there well i gues i'll just go home pure genius i believe that this song is the perfect one for that moments when we search "that song"
but the chorus brings hope you guys. I'm sure we all experience those HORRIBLE days when you feel like you would rather die than move on, but a little bit of hope makes us want to keep going. "there will come a time" wether it's life after death or just finding true happiness.
"Because death is just too full and man too small, and I'm scared of what's behind and what's before." One of the most poignant and reflective verses I've ever heard in music. If you've ever had to contemplate your own mortality or that of a loved one for whatever reason these words hold so much meaning. Incredibly powerful!!
I love how quiet the crowd is. That is true respect. Very rare at shows these days.
their best song still. always so beautiful no matter how many times you hear it.
"Love will not break your heart, but dismiss your fears."
I miss the feeling of being loved. It's been so long. I don't mean to sound sappy, but it's really the truth: knowing that you're something special to someone else is a feeling that is unparalleled.
May you get this message at this time friend. You're loved! Believe it to be. May God bless you.
much love brother 9 years later
I hope love has found you
This is my favorite Mumford and Son's song. incredibly beautiful and vulnerable. It amazes me that this song has the ability to reach inside the hearts of so many and touchs a similar spot in everyone. So powerful, real and lovely.
There WILL come a time for all of us, when it won't be scary anymore, won't be painful. It will be perfect. That's what keeps us all going.
4-13-2020 coronavirus pandemic lockdown playlist THANK YOU

Yo this is amazing
My friend Kim died unexpectedly (a stroke) and someone sang this at her memorial service. It was probably the hardest moment of the whole afternoon.
Heartbreaking.
This song got me through the death of my grandfather two months ago. Real music still exists.
If Marcus Mumford was my dad I'd make him play his songs to wake me up every morning.
This song is so organic... it leaves me filled with joy and a feeling that there is something bigger out there... that despite our "fear of what's behind and what's before", everything wil be fine, "you'll see". This song is so uplifting!
I can't even handle the emotions involved in listening to this song, god only knows how emotional writing it must of been. Gives me hope to believe in a better tomorrow, no matter how bad today might appear.
And there will come a time, you'll see, with no more tears...And love will not break your heart, but dismiss your fears. ...This band is incredible!
This song may not be the best for the depression I'm feeling but it feels perfect.
This song makes me cry like a baby. Hope to God I get to see em play in London
I yearn for the days with no more tears, with grace in my heart and flowers in my hair.
my favorite from mumford & sons. so thankful that my friend suggested this band to me. beautiful music...
I AM SO SO SO VERY MUCH IN LOVE WITH THIS SONG!!!! I TEAR UP WHEN I AM SINGING THE CHORUS TO MYSELF.... ALL THE TIME.....
The best band in the world. No doubt!
refreshing to see bands like this. it's all about live performing and real fucking music. music you can enjoy, music that helps you through tough times.
Ahh I never want this song to end. Whenever it stops it's kind of like a shock, like a realize where I am, and I remember to start breathing again. Keep on rocking Mumford :)
This song is VERY powerful to me! goes inside my soul and make me feel different.
Really amazing.
I'm seeing them April 15th...and I can not wait...wow. Will probably be the best day of my life
One of the best live bands you'll see anywhere. beautiful song
I'm glad someones still making music that can give me goosebumps.
I first heard this epic and touching song while watching Stargate Universe and at great effort tracked it down. It does not matter how often I hear it brings a tear to my eye.
Same here.
This song gives me the chills... these guys are true musicians
I am absolutely in awe of this band...speechless.
I truly hope, at some point in my life, I will see this great band play live. I have never been so drawn to a band, or music, in my life! I hope they stay true to their sound and not let the stardom take ruin on their music.
i love how they sound the same as like a CD version. Mumford & Sons are amazingggggg. i cant wait to see them at leeds
They should play this song in every live set. So touching, so beautiful..
This song makes me cry every time I listen to it.
mumford and sons are like a healthy smoothie for you soul
This song is filled with raw emotion and truthful introspection that the awakening soul recognizes and hears. Bravo !
This is the most beautiful song I've ever heard
What a great band.... AMAZING!!!!!
See them first time live on Hurricane 2012!
Since this day I am already "addicted"
This song always gives me chills!
I don't know what it is, but this song is so strong and everytime I'm sad I listen to this song and cry even harder. Because I know there will come a time when love doesn't break hearts and there will be no tears. I just wish that time will come soon .. (l)
This is just just pure magic. I love this song.
And there will come a time, you'll see, with no more tears.
And love will not break your heart, but dismiss your fears.
this song, with those insane lyrics..is gut wrenching....but beautiful at the same time
This is the most beautiful thing i think ive ever heard
how can your life be incomplete when you just saw them live??
bloody hell, they are as brilliant live as they are recorded!
they always put so much emotion into singing it, it makes them very enjoyable to listen to.
it also comforted me when my girlfriend broke up with me, i really could cry my heart out and feel like new after it :)
Love this song! Glad to see that it was featured on Stargate Universe Season 2 Episode 1. =)
My ex wife played this for me the day she left me, that was the worst day and best day of my life, I just didn’t know it yet.

this song is so beautiful it makes me cry uncontrollably.

God bless art
this song makes me so sad and so happy at the same time and i love it
this song gives me goosebumbps everytime.
wow, what an impressive song. so deep... and sung so beautifully. Thanks a lot for sharing, it's really really appreciated
@hookedonMuSe aren't they absolutely inbelieveable? such talent...I have never had a group that has affected my life like they have....there are no words to describe it...I'm sure you must have the same feeling, one that we don't even all the way understand....
This song speaks to the heart, mind and soul.
This is just so beautiful. So full of emotion.
My new favorite band!!! They are just...WOW!!!!
when asked by my older brother what my favorite m&s song was my favorite, i got really angry, and told him not to make me choose cuz id die, but told him that a few that came to mind were white blank page, little lion man, the cave, thistle and weeds, and after the storm, and told him to quit bugging me, that i was listening to winter winds, which is also a great song that pops into my mind :)
Awesome.....unbeatable!!!!
greetz from germany
Lovely, lovely, lovely! I'm in love with this song.
Best band of the last year by some distance!
One of their best songs
wtf im crying man??
why does this song get me choked up?!
So good and comforting
my favourite! can't stop listening to it!
I saw them and Johnny within a week of each other but I so wish I could have seen them at the same time.
This song. It's perfect.
this song is so beautiful.
absolutely in love with this song :) Genius, right there for you to listen to, people..
If my current state of feelings and emotions would be turned into a song it would sound like this.
This song really gets to me. It's awesome.
Beautiful,love those guys....
man this song brings shivers all through my body
I get to see them on the 18th! I'm so excited!!!!!!
this song makes my heart explode.
My boyfriend sent me this, and it's just lovely.
when these guys break up I'm probably going to cry.
wow seeing him tear up almost made me cry
Crying my eyes out at this song...
Beautiful song, amazing crowd. Not like the other video I saw where the crowd is clapping and screaming the whole time
Totally agree RosaMe ElAno. This was a good time to see Mumford & Sons, when the songs were new, the venues small and the audiences knew the difference between the 'singalong' songs (Little Lion Man, The Cave etc) and the songs where you just stfu and listen!
thanks for posting such quaility videos!!!!!
I think this and Where are you now are their best songs.
how the hell do you dislike this...
Thank you. Looking back it doesn't make any sense to be "on this and on this heart I won't rot" It must be "not this mind and not this heart."
oh! I love this one!!!!! Thanks so much for posting! I saw them last night in NYC! I will never be the same!
thank you mumford and sons
Probably my favorite of theirs.
@LessThanFreedom
here! want it on my funeral some day
Excellent as always!!
impossible to dislike this song
What...a...gift...
god i cry every time i listen to this

You upload the best stuff :D Getting to all the gigs I can't. Thanks ;)
Amazing song!
God this really freakin' hurts, man.
They're awesome. And now, in the comment section i found out that johnny flynn toured with them? two of the best artists in their genre.
I hate not living in england.
and i will die alone
and be left there
well i gues i'll just go home
pure genius i believe that this song is the perfect one for that moments when we search "that song"
@LessThanFreedom I cry every time I hear this song. Mumford and Sons make the most beautifully soul haunting music.
but the chorus brings hope you guys. I'm sure we all experience those HORRIBLE days when you feel like you would rather die than move on, but a little bit of hope makes us want to keep going. "there will come a time" wether it's life after death or just finding true happiness.
most beautiful. love them.
