I sang and played this for my sweet baby dog over and over the last few days of her life; it gave me great comfort and I was trying to tell her it’s ok for you to “go gently.” Love you and miss you, Abby.
This is the first V8 song I happened upon, Christmas night 2018. I was entranced. Somewhere around dawn, I finally stopped listening to and watching everything else I could find. The obsession was immediate. 😁
There is something very magical about discovering a great song on Christmas Eve, isn't there. I discovered The Police's "Walking on the Moon" on the drive home from Christmas Eve festivities, and it made such a beautiful mark on my mind, and I really considered it a gift.
VOCES8 has SUCH a sound--their own, unique, immediately recognizable sound. Gorgeous beyond words. Thanks to all of them for all the hard work it takes to get there and to maintain it.
Underneath the stars I'll meet you Underneath the stars I'll greet you There beneath the stars I'll leave you Before you go of your own free will Go gently Underneath the stars you met me Underneath the stars you left me I wonder if the stars regret me At least you'll go of your own free will Go gently Here beneath the stars I'm landing And here beneath the stars not ending Why on earth am I pretending? I'm here again, the stars befriending They come and go of their own free will Go gently Go gently Underneath the stars you met me And Underneath the stars you left me I wonder if the stars regret me I'm sure they'd like me if they only met me They come and go of their own free will Go gently Go gently Go gently
This was one of the first pieces I heard performed by Voces8...Can't believe half the singers in this video are gone including the lovely Emily singing this solo and her replacement Elenore is moving on too. So Bittersweet
I've seen them perform this live and all I'll say is that I'm so glad that they performed it last because I was crying so much I'm not sure I'd have been able to pay attention to much more of the concert haha
Amazing, I have only heard Kate Rusby's work performed by, Kate Rusby. It is so different when V8 gives it their inimitable treatment. Very nice. So nice to see Sam lending his amazIng tenor voice too.
Not only do Voces8 sing beautifully, and post videos with perfect sound and expert video editing, but... how do they manage to choose music I've not heard before, but which instantly joins my all time favourites list?! Thank you all so much... words just fail me!
I sang this my first year in my school’s audition choir. It was only two years ago, but it feels so long ago, and now I’m going to graduate by the summer. I only have four concerts until I will have sung every song I will ever sing as a high schooler in choir. Two years may not seem that long ago to anyone reading this comment, but that’s two years of the most complicated, fun, stressful, life-forming days I’ve ever had. Frankly, I’m not ready for this to be over. I lived for the end of the school year until I realized those days I was dragged through forced me in infinite, ever-lasting ways. Now it’s too late to get those back, and that’s a fact that has devastated me: I’ll never get that time back, ever, and I kinda hate myself for it. So I leave this comment to the abyss, never to be seen again. Goodbye (:
Blake: you should post a waveform and spectrogram analysis of Emily's voice. I would love to see the same for Eleonore's voice as well. Two very distinctive voice timbres.
The first time i heard this song was at the capital building at Montana with a schoold choir performing there test ir some sort. I was above the balcony hearing it above.
I'm learning this as a brass band arrangement - I'd never heard it before. The harmonies are so perfectly clear here. I hope I can do it justice on the cornet.
Only leave gently if you've been treated gently, if not, then don't ever, believe me. So, an amazing song and singing to be sure but it only means anything if it was a relationship of meaning to start with. If it wasn't then why celebrate it or believe in it? It's just words, actions are better. If it never was any good then this is a song of yearning and not some belief in something that was ever real.
Underneath the stars I'll meet you Underneath the stars I'll greet you There beneath the stars I'll leave you Before you go of your own free will Go gently Underneath the stars you met me Underneath the stars you left me I wonder if the stars regret me They come and go of their own free will Go gently Here beneath the stars I'm mending I'm here beneath the stars not ending Why on earth am I pretending? I'm here again, the stars befriending They come and go of their own free will Go gently Go gently Underneath the stars you met me And here beneath the stars you left me I wonder if the stars regret me I'm sure they'd like me if they only met me They come and go of their own free will Go gently Go gently
Poppamunz Jonas Vezia Thanks for your comment. The reason this videos has come up again is because this upload is on the group’s VEVO channel, which is different to the RUclips channel. The reason is is appearing here is because we have now made our videos available across all digital platforms so that, for example, Apple Music subscribers can view them on the iTunes platform. We hope this will increase the amount of viewers who are able to enjoy them.
Such a perfect harmony perfect vocals, but compared to the original they completely miss the essence. Kate Rusby touches my heart because of her husky voice and close, intense singing. And she wrote the song.

There are days that this music gets me through. It grounds me and gives me hope. It could not be more beautiful or more real.
Oh yes...I understand.

Must be extremely rough when babies die 😢
This is such a beautiful song, heartfelt and much needed during such a difficult time for everyone.....made me cry
The original by Kate Rusby is equally beautiful.

Underneath the stars I'll meet you
Underneath the stars I'll greet you
There beneath the stars I'll leave you
Before you go of your own free will
Go gently
Underneath the stars you met me
Underneath the stars you left me
I wonder if the stars regret me
At least you'll go of your own free will
Go gently
Here beneath the stars I'm landing
And here beneath the stars not ending
Why on earth am I pretending?
I'm here again, the stars befriending
They come and go of their own free will
Go gently
Go gently
Underneath the stars you met me
And Underneath the stars you left me
I wonder if the stars regret me
I'm sure they'd like me if they only met me
They come and go of their own free will
Go gently
Go gently
Go gently
Thankyou so much!I can't hear all the words.
@@paulinerichardson138 I heard "Oh Jenny" instead of "Go gently" 😀
The lead vocalist really sells this lyric. Arrangements and performance touched me to my core.
the authentic smile is essential to the sound I feel
This is the song that first introduced me to this
fabulous group. It has a very special place in my heart
Same here!
❤❤❤
Missing Emily beeing a part of voces8 when listening to this beauty 😢💛
Oh me too! Such a gorgeous voice!
This has quickly become one of my favorite songs
If you promise me that these voices will sound in the eternity of heaven, I could not wait.
In the eternity of heaven, you will be one of these voices ... and it will not be voces8 but voces-uncountable! 🙂
Heavenly,
And quite sad too: I understand that this was the last performance of the lead soprano in the white top with the group... 💔
It was similar when Eleonore left - they sang Rheinberger's 'Abendlied' with the lyrics "stay with us".
This was one of the first pieces I heard performed by Voces8...Can't believe half the singers in this video are gone including the lovely Emily singing this solo and her replacement Elenore is moving on too. So Bittersweet
One of the most beautiful things I have ever heard
Seconded
im a masive fan of kate rusbys music.
i am sure she will be blown away by this interpretaton of her song.
love it!!
I've seen them perform this live and all I'll say is that I'm so glad that they performed it last because I was crying so much I'm not sure I'd have been able to pay attention to much more of the concert haha
One word sums up this performance: “Exquisite”!
Amazing, I have only heard Kate Rusby's work performed by, Kate Rusby. It is so different when V8 gives it their inimitable treatment. Very nice. So nice to see Sam lending his amazIng tenor voice too.
Underneath the stars... we hear an Angels voice.

Kate rusby...a whole catalogue of music, and on RUclips an uninterrupted mix of her older songs

I see it 😊
I see it too 🙏
Year to year I come back to this beautiful song. It touches something in my core ❤
It is monumentally and endlessly beautiful. I cry every time I listen to it.
This by far the best version of this song
FACT!🙏
Hadn't heard this one before. Luscious. Thanks!
Possibly one of the most sublime pieces of a cappella singing I heard recently. When the time comes, I want this on my playlist…❤
Amazing song and performed to perfection.. It speaks to me...
Angels ! Just wonderful !
I really hope this is what heaven sounds like

This is insanely beautiful.
Gets me every single time 🥺 So so stunning 💕
The first time i heard this song was at the capital building at Montana with a schoold choir performing there test ir some sort. I was above the balcony hearing it above.
This is beautiful and "gentle."
Beautiful song, exquisite arrangement, mesmerizing performance by the ensemble, especially Ms. Dickens.
So beautiful. One for the desert island!
Absolutely stunning!! What a beautiful group of voices ♥️
Her Majesty went gently.
Margaret thankyou for that, exactly. And as only she should have too, well said.
I love this song and I love this performance. I return to it when I need to feel better.
Es reconfortante oír esas voces, en estos momentos de tensiones. Gracias.
Absolutely sublime, velvet for my ears
I'm a big fan from the Philippines!
The Most Underrated Performance and Song💖💖
reminds me of the saying that the way to recognise great art or music is that it can be re-interpreted and surpassed by those who come later.
Bello bello el fraseo!!
I love the mezzo's voice sooooo baaaaaad
Perfection. So beautiful.
Cette chanson m'arrache des sanglots à chaque écoute, la vôtre et ailleurs
Magníficos 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷💙💙💙🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶
My cheekbones arms & neck tingles everytime I hear this. I think of the one who introduced me to this.
Beautiful, thank you.
I'm learning this as a brass band arrangement - I'd never heard it before. The harmonies are so perfectly clear here. I hope I can do it justice on the cornet.
so much talent in one place = natural high
Po prostu niebiańsko. Dziękuję serdecznie za kulturę śpiewu z najwyższej półki.
Great acoustics. Thank you !
Beautiful sounds created and eminating from exceptional vocalists.
Thank you ❤️🇿🇦
(Just one question, who is "Jet Lee" and where must he go? 🤪🤣)
Thank you. This made me laugh. 😆
I always hear 'Oh, Jenny.' This made me smile!
sublime: exalted in thought, expression, or manner of outstanding spiritual, intellectual, or moral worth (Merriam Webster).
Beautiful!
wooooooooooooow.plz plz post those angels everywere
Just so lovely ❤

I'm all tingly!!!
Me encantan!!! ♥
Glory of God!
musica magnifica !!
CHILLS.
Underneath the stars I'll meet you
Underneath the stars I'll greet you
There beneath the stars I'll leave you
Before you go of your own free will
Go gently
Underneath the stars you met me
Underneath the stars you left me
I wonder if the stars regret me
They come and go of their own free will
Go gently
Here beneath the stars I'm mending
I'm here beneath the stars not ending
Why on earth am I pretending?
I'm here again, the stars befriending
They come and go of their own free will
Go gently
Go gently
Underneath the stars you met me
And here beneath the stars you left me
I wonder if the stars regret me
I'm sure they'd like me if they only met me
They come and go of their own free will
Go gently
Go gently
Eyup. Love oor Kate. The Yorkshire Nightingale
Perfect
Relaxing
I wonder why they're reuploading all the old videos?

soothing!!!🎹😊
This remind anyone else of Desperados Under the Eaves?
Gorgeous! Recording date?
One of my favorite videos from VOCES8. I wonder how Emily Dickens is doing.
To answer my own question -- Emily Dickens was on a recent V8 interview segment! ruclips.net/video/_QjbLlNxNTo/видео.html
2:25
I’ve been boo boo the fooled this isn’t a Mariah Carey cover 😔😔😔
It just might be better... :) Lucky you to stumble upon this by accident.
Such a perfect harmony perfect vocals, but compared to the original they completely miss the essence. Kate Rusby touches my heart because of her husky voice and close, intense singing. And she wrote the song.
Is it just me or is the video and audio out of sync?
Konstantin Geissler possibly bluetooth lag?
I love this! I’m addicted - brings tears to my eyes. What’s wrong with an older song? This song suits a choir perfectly.
Come on guys. This is old. (Also good.) (But also old.)
sgabriel Apparently all their videos were put on Vivo so they’re all appearing as new videos on our feeds

@@VOCES8 I was too hot under the collar. Nice to hear from you guys at all times. Thanks for continuing to "put out" during these weirdest times.

You wanted proof?? Voilà
Why ? Leave a perect song alone
