I lost my two sons in 99 - one day I lay down on a day couch and fell asleep - and there stood my two sons in front of me - my youngest was standing back a bit - we knew what we were each thinking - he wanted me to know he was standing back because I got to stand by him for 5 days (he was on live support for 5 days before he was declared brain dead and he was an organ donor) my oldest died within minutes of the wreck. They were gorgeous - and oh my goodness - I'd never seen them so happy! They kept saying "Oh mom, you won't believe" over and over! I knew where they were - and they were so happy. And one day, I'll see them "in Heaven"! My oldest reached out and took my left hand with his right and squeezed it. I knew I was fixing to wake up. When I woke up, I jumped up and ran through the house crying and praising the Lord - I got to see my fella's blue eyes one more time! The Lord is gracious! Love love this song. God Bless and keep you!
Your gorgeous voice has touched my broken, bleedìng heart. My sweet, kind, gentle, loving son, Mark David passed away 11/11/20, leaving behind a devastated, destroyed family. He had just celebrated his 30th birthday. Thank you for chosing this song, that touches my grieving, sad, sad heart. In memory of my son, 2/11/90-11/11/20.
Oh honey I'm devastated for you. Oh yourself broken heart I'm so sad for your family. Love an peace please come to you. Please know he is an angel watching over you. Nothing harder to go through.
3-yrs ago today my wife of 47-yrs said I had to let her go. 3-yrs ago at 05:30 tomorrow morning, while nestled in my arms, my wife departed this earth for heaven. Thank you. Blessings. Gittyupgo Gpa
Austin. You are singing this song for everyone who has lost a precious loved one. Such a beautiful voice. Your voice reaches the soul. And stirs every emotion. Thank you
God has a miraculous way of touching us all. Austin is one of them. God bless you. Just lost my Rebecca on June 14th, she is now walking on streets of gold. 🙋♂️🙏🇺🇲🇨🇱
We're big Austin fans who lost our only son 10 years ago on June 1st. This beautiful performance speaks to us as no other can. You're about his age. If you'd like to be adopted, just let us know. We love you, Austin, and have through your Home Free years. Best wishes for success in your new career! Nobody --NObody sings more beautifully than you.
Austin, you have such a beautiful, pure voice full of sensitivity. i loved this one which was very moving. you both a great ensemble. Carry on giving us joy. All the best for the future.
After we lost my brother my mom heard this song and said it made her think of him. 28 years later, just this year, she finally found out that he wrote it for his son and understood why it touched her so much after losing her own.
The greatest male voice I've ever heard, in 76 years, is Austin Brown's. Wow! What an amazing range and I understood every word clearly. Is this lovely man simply a man, or is he an angel?
Dear Austin, Each time that I listen to your arrangement of this song, I cry tears of sadness and joy. On 1 December 2020, I lost my husband of 38 years to COVID-19. It was a strange, surreal time, and I had to fight hospital administrators who were reluctant to let me be with my husband as he went to our Lord. This was one of my husband's and my favorite songs, one the comforted us when we lost our child. Now, because of you, it brings me comfort, especially on those days when I am missing both of my loved ones. Thank you!
So sorry about the lost of your husband and the l of your child as well. I know how it feels to lose someone special or a love one Because It was hard for me as well when I lost my wife 7 years ago and that is pain I can never forget and this song was also one of my wife favorite songs as well. But with God on my side I have been able to move on gradually. Hope you having a good day today Deborah
It seems wrong of me to ‘like’ your heartbreaking story, just please know I am praying for comfort and peace for you. My beloved husband passed away in 2017 of heart failure. I will love him until I go to meet him in Heaven. Tomorrow my family will commemorate the lost life of our stillborn granddaughter. Knowing I will one day join all the loved ones who have gone before me keeps me putting one foot in front of the other. Austin brings me to tears also with his beautiful rendition. You are not alone, even though we have never met. There are many who share your grief and so please, remain strong in whatever you believe. Blessings to you and yours.
Sending prayers!!! I lost my Mom and husband told me two months later I want a divorce it was hard I kept praying for him to get back to the Lord he divorced me got married same day was killed in vehicle bicycle accident just two weeks prior he came back to Lord was dead two weeks later so God answered that prayer so I know about grief but God helped me go on !!! Prayers for all of you that you feel Gods comfort
What a gift our Mighty God Jesus Christ has given you Austin! The same goes for all your associates! They are all among the finest artists in music today!!
I lost my brother when he was 2 months old........ I love him and miss him still so very much and I am 70 now. Heartbreak never goes away from your heart. God bless u Tony my darling xxxx xxxx
I'm old, 76 years and counting, but I've never heard of you until now. Nothing on TV, I'm alone, so got on youtube and found you and your music. You're fantastic. I'm amazed. I'll start following you. Wishing you the best in everything you do.
Eric Clapton Wrote this song about his 4 year son who fell through a 53rd story window. So sad but it's songs like this that hard hearted people like me need to hear to feel something and overcome this hard heart. Thank you Austin God bless you. I lost my son in 1979 And still never a day goes by without me thinking of him. I know He's in heaven 😇
@@joangordon3376 Yes, and I said, he really didn't need the accompaniment because he seemed to bd singing the song A capella. I guess I meant that he didn't really need anyone to play any music for him.
This was played at my 7 y/o granddaughter’s funeral. She loved the song and would place her hand in mine at the verse of, Would You Hold My Hand. I was completely crushed when her mother surprised me at her funeral with this song. I am just now getting to where I can listen to it. You did this so beautifully. Thank You!
I’ve lost both of my parents. They are in heaven. My dad tried to explain what he was see right before he quit talking. In about a day, he went on home. Later on, my mother passed away. The last thing she said was Jesus. It was like she was seeing Him. I can’t wait to see them again.
Well I certainly have, and totally understand. Can't wait to reunite in Heaven. Love you always, Mike❣ Austin you are my new favorite singer. Absolutely beautiful. Love this music, and love you. God bless❣
Thank you for this sweet song. My 42 year old son passed away six years ago. It seems like yesterday. Knowing he’s in heaven gives me peace. Keep singing young man. You and all the musicians and talented folks who contribute to making the songs unforgettable, I thank you.
I lost my dear love almost two years ago. I know this pain, the deepest and worst, when life is a chaos of nothingness. But every smile of hers, every kiss, every glance, is like a tattoo on my mind and that's the only joy I can grab, my only comfort. Stay strong Penelope, like the wife od Odysseus was...I send you my hug. I have no kind of faith, but even if nobody knows anything about that, one day, will meet her again. Love is stronger than everything.💐💐💐
My husband and I both had tears in our eyes while listening to this. Your range and ability to sing so many genres of music is fantastic. Don't ever let anyone pigeonhole you into doing just one thing.
So beautiful! This song always reminds me of my brother "Johnny" who was hit by a car & killed at 6 years old. I know he's in heaven now, but he already acted like a little angel here on earth his 6 short years 💙💙💙
I lost my sweet husband of 54 years three years ago. This song just brought tears to my eyes, even though it's been awhile. I know he is waiting for me in heaven! Austin, you sang this song beautifully!
😢 Yes I am sure your darling wife heard this song playing for her. When my Dad was dying the nurse told me the last senses to go is the hearing. So I'm sure your wife heard your words to her. Xx God bless I feel your loss
Just before she took her last breath she asked me to promise that I would talk to her everyday and play some music for her. She said she would try to listen. ❤️J
This was my deceased husband's favorite song. He even sang it to me once, and he can't carry a tune, but it was even more beautiful than your version. My darling has been gone for 11 years and I miss him more than I ever have simplybecause I listened to this. I cried all the way through. Thank you so very very much!
So sorry about your husband and I know how it feels when I lost my wife 7 years back and this don’t was it Favourite as well. But I have to let go even if the pain is always there. You must let go Karen and you must not cry all day ok. Just let it go and focus on the future ok 👍 Hope you having a good day today.
Your response let's you and us out here know that he is still alive in your heart and mind. He will be until that one precious day when he greets you in heaven.
Every time I hear an Austin Brown/Sebastien Douyon collaboration, I am amazed at Austin's singing and Sebastien's accompaniment. Both are amazingly talented. What I sometimes fail to take into consideration is the genius environment in which each video is filmed. This is just the perfect setting for the song with two artists who bring powerful experiences to each of their listeners and video followers. Of course, the very talented Amberly who filmed this experience deserves a shout out for her large part in this production.
How right you are. I recently lost my husband and never knew what the word grief meant until now. Memories make it worse, . People say they hall but not me. I feel almost suicidal every day. What’s there to live for.
@@nancyraimer6968 Please, please take the idea of suicide off the table even for consideration. There is so much to live for. We rarely know what a big, positive influence we can have on others. I lost a son unexpectedly 6 years ago. I miss him everyday, but my memories and knowing that at some point I will join him keeps me going. I know that he would want me to live e everyday to its fullest. I allow myself some time to just sit and contemplate the good times we had. As a result of his death, I found Home Free and with some help from my daughter and some HF fans have actively tried to be a positive influence everyday. There are days I am not 100% positive, but I do give thanks everyday for my health and for family and friends who are a blessing. I frequently pray for someone I see that looks like they could use something positive in their lives. As I frequently tell one of my best friends ever, you never know the good that you can do just by a kind word or a smile or just by listening. Below is the National Suicide Hotline: 1-800-273-8255. My friend also reminds me that life and be a series of baby steps. One lives with grief sometimes one day at at a time, sometimes one hour at a time. HF recently did a song called "One Life ". ruclips.net/user/results?search_query=homefree+mental+health.
I am sooo sorry for your loss 😢 I know your grief is very raw and all encompassing right now. I can’t tell you it gets better, but it somehow becomes more tolerable. I pray that you will hang in there - one day, one hour, one minute, one second at a time🙏 May the peace of the Lord be with you. You don’t know me, but I love you 😊 Please don’t give up! Hugs to you now and every day❣️
Beautiful performance of this really sad and haunting a song! Losing someone important in life can be very painful. Losing your child is one of the worst thing that could ever happen!
I lost my oldest son almost eleven years ago, killed by a hit and run driver, what I’ve learned since then is just how many others have lived through the same thing, so so many. Not that I thought I was the only one, but the truth is that chances are no matter where you go, you will be in the midst of others suffering the same heartbreak. In my own family, one sister in law lost two daughters a few years apart, her sister lost a son, and there are more….right after I went back to work after my sons death, a lady I know came to express her sympathy and said she knew what I was going through, she lost her daughter and two grandchildren in a house fire on Christmas Eve. I read that people think they can’t go on, but we do, we somehow just find the strength to carry on. I remember the accident when Eric lost his little boy, my heart truly ached for the family, it was so terribly sad. Austin certainly put his heart in this sad but beautiful song.
@@lolaottinger6976 I lost my second child to congenital heart disease. She lived 10 days and spent the entire time in NICU. It took me years to get over it. The one thing I learned was how important it is to grieve at the time of your loss. Don’t be brave, taking care of everyone else.
My daughter lost her daddy when she was just 10 years old. She's 23 now and still cries because she misses him so much. It's hard watching her hurt so much.
I hope you have found some peace and comfort since your terrible loss. Can't wish you a Merry Christmas, that would be crass, but I do wish you joy, in time.
You’re guaranteed a place in heaven when your time comes because you give so much joy to people when you sing. I could listen to you all day and night as I get a sense of peace listening to your wonderful voice
Played this at my daughter's funeral (she was born sleeping) 25 years and took me many years to listen to it again, thank you Austin for this version as it made me cry, but with tears of joy.
Unforgettable I remember hearing it shortly after the tragedy. I've heard so many versions since but apart from the saddest song a man for his lost child your version touched a chord in my heart Thank you Austin
This song really touched my heart. My son died a month ago and he left behind a beautiful wife and two children, plus his parents and brother. You sung this so beautifully and with great feeling. Thank you so much for this song.
It's not just about your voice, Austin, it's the presence as well. The space you fill with love and light. The love and light you share from within with the rest of us. Gorgeous, heartfelt, beautiful, warm. And Sebastien is so good on those keys, the way he supports your voice with the emotions of the music. Again, beautiful and heartfelt. Thank you, both of you! 🥰🙏
My big brother, Rick, passed away this morning. I am creating a Rick's Playlist. This is a You Tube Video he sent me. Thank you so much. You meant a lot to him, and you mean a lot to me. Bless you.
I'm 72 years old haven't sang in almost 20 years I would love to learn this song to sing to my husband who is also 72 and having a hard time with COPD we miss our music and being together listening to music I'm so happy to have seen this channel and heard you sing this song thank you I will find the words and have your music and sing along with you until I get this down or my husband thank you and God bless you thank you for bringing me back to our God God bless you
This is beyond anything I could ever ask for. It was so beautiful and you sang it with such emotion!! I felt like my daddy was looking down and telling me that yes he would know me, greet me with a giant bear hug, and show me all around heaven. Thank you so much for sharing your talent with the world.
“Would you know my name?” A hauntingly genuine question that many people wonder about. Interesting lyrics and again Austin you gave it your best. Beautiful and heavenly vocals. I loved it !😇🙏🎶💗
I love your voice and talent. This song touched me tremendously- I lost my 29 year old son on 12/3/20 and grieve him everyday. I know he’s in heaven watching over me. Thanks Austin and God Bless
This was just gorgeous this brought tears to my eyes it is so heartfelt Mr Austin Brown is in a league of his own there is nothing that he cannot sing and make it spectacular he is just amazing God Bless you keep doing what you do 👏
I just seen you guys on stage at the Strawberry festival. I especially love when you all sing the feeling songs like this one. God bless. I bought 4 of your cds there. Please keep singing.
On the day my father was dying to keep him calm I played Home Free singing Amazing Grace, and How Great Thou Art. When I hear it now it takes on a stronger message. Thank you so much for keeping his passing good for him.
I am fiercely loyal to original artists, but for the first time in 58yrs I can honestly say that you nailed it and not so much as a millimetre short either. Beautiful!!!!!.
Holy wow Austin…I just heard you sing unchained melodies and then this one…you took my breath away…truly… thank you for sharing your energy,your absolutely amazing voice… wow what you can do with a song…wow
Don't know if you've heard them, but you really must check out Home Free, the a cappella group that Austin sings with. They are fantastic! I was never a big fan of music without instrumentation, but this group has totally won me over...seems like I don't get through a day without listening to their music or watching one of their concerts on RUclips. I am absolutely addicted to them...all five of these guys have tremendous musical abilities and their warmth and humor is unsurpassed.
He is such a gifted and beautiful artist. I haven’t listened to music in a very long time but I stumbled upon him and listening to Austin feels my heart with so many emotions. I will listen to all of his music.🙏🏻
Oh how this touched our hearts. We have lost numerous friends and a family member to covid. We look forward to seeing them all again. God love you for this stirring rendition of "Tears in Heaven".
Dear Austin, I first came in contact with your immense talent last night, with a rendering of one truly immortal song that means so much to me, Unchained Melody. Your duet with Steven Martinez had me in tears. And once again you bring your uncanny talent to make this gem, Tears in Heaven, your own. I've sent links to many friends, in special to my Alabamian friends to also go see you and Home Free in Huntsville two days from now. I live in MA. I hope one day I'll see you live on stage! May God make all your dreams come true, and your love and gratitude be returned to you a thousand-fold!
@@timknight6258 Right! As I said, I hope to see him and Home Free on stage one day. Nice follow up with 222K subscriptions, although, given the monster talent that number be in the millions, in my modest opinion! Thank you for reaching out to me. In these crazy days, musicians such as these give us some reassurance sanity at all levels shall prevail. Cheers!
A very sad song-no parent should outlive their offspring. I truly appreciate your respectful treatment of Clapton and his song. Beautiful rendition Austin, and Sebe’s delicate touch on the piano made this song even more emotional. 😞
Fantastic cover of one of Eric Clapton’s greatest hits. You sang it with so much feeling as well Austin. May his son always R.I.P. and God Bless to all involved in this beautiful cover🙏🙏
I like the simplicity of your music and style of singing. I already left a lengthy comment on your “Unchained Melody “. This is a beautiful song by Eric Clapton written from personal tragedy. When it first came out, knowing the story, brought tears to many hearts. It still touches hearts.🥰
Austin you really know how to touch my heart with your gorgeous voice. This song has so much meaning to me because I lost my true love on 9/11. He was a NYC firefighter who saved so many lives except his own. He died a hero. I'll always love him and never forget him. Till we meet again. 💔💔❤️😇🙏😇🙏
65 so or years ago my brother Michael died of lukemia. I was 3, but remember lying in the hospital bed (in our home). He died soon after. I don't remember much about my childhood, but this is etched in my memory. I have listened to this song numerous times, but after listening to this my memories came flooding back. THANK YOU!!!!
This song was used for a montage that was dedicated to my 4 yr old Grand-daughter who was murdered by her step-father. It made me cry but Austin's voice is absolutely amazing!!
@ Bonnie Taylor I am so very sorry for your loss, I can't even imagine your sorrow but please know, you will see her sweet face again. May God continue to be your strength, comfort and peace.
I don’t even have the words to adequately describe what’s in my heart when I hear you sing. You did an outstanding rendition of this heartfelt song. Hearing this on the third day of November is particularly meaningful to me as I lost my husband 27 years ago this month to lung cancer. This song touches my heart every time I hear it. Your voice brings me such joy and peace when I hear you sing.
This month would have been our Anniversary,but lost my husband,my soul mate ,my best friend. Thank you for this. You both stay safe and happy. Much love!
My husband died 3 years ago, March 28, 2019. I hope to see him in heaven one day - for real! This is so powerful and warming. And the keyboardist--he is phenomenal!
Beautiful, one of my faves! I play this song a lot when I miss my sister. Who passed from cancer. I know the story of this song... He wrote it for his son that passed. I love the way you sang the song. Always cry when I here this song!
Amen and Amen. This was so beautiful, it brought tears to my eyes😥😇😇😇😥 I lost my twins, and I am so anxious to see them again, and I know they will know me, and I will know them❤💋❤
My parents had 6 children together and Unbeknownst to them 1/2 of them were born with Myotonic muscular dystrophy that would not develop until they hit puberty. Well I became a nurse because of them and was with 2 of them as they passed and spent every day with the other sibling ( my best friend growing up) during his terminal phase right up until the day he died. I just try to envision them in heaven all visiting and laughing with my family and talking plainly, playing sports, and doing all the things that this disease stole from them. I long for the day we can be reunited and they can tell me all about it. Thanks for this beautiful cover.
I lost my daughter 27 years ago and my husband 11 years ago! Oh wow how the tears are coming down! Thank you Austin Brown! I know I will see them again! Everyday is day I know I am going to be able to see them again!!❤❤❤
Austin releasing his cover, Home Free releasing their cover of My Country Tis of Thee. Today couldn't get much better. Thank you so much. Oh and I saw Dawg in the background! Amazing cover Austin you totally nailed it!
I lost my two sons in 99 - one day I lay down on a day couch and fell asleep - and there stood my two sons in front of me - my youngest was standing back a bit - we knew what we were each thinking - he wanted me to know he was standing back because I got to stand by him for 5 days (he was on live support for 5 days before he was declared brain dead and he was an organ donor) my oldest died within minutes of the wreck. They were gorgeous - and oh my goodness - I'd never seen them so happy! They kept saying "Oh mom, you won't believe" over and over! I knew where they were - and they were so happy. And one day, I'll see them "in Heaven"! My oldest reached out and took my left hand with his right and squeezed it. I knew I was fixing to wake up. When I woke up, I jumped up and ran through the house crying and praising the Lord - I got to see my fella's blue eyes one more time! The Lord is gracious! Love love this song. God Bless and keep you!
I am shedding so many tears for you. Started out sharing your grief and ended with sharing your joy. Thank you for sharing.
😢🙏
Amen
Bless you
well, you have me totally tears… that is so beautiful and I’m so happy for you!!❤
Your gorgeous voice has touched my broken, bleedìng heart. My sweet, kind, gentle, loving son, Mark David passed away 11/11/20, leaving behind a devastated, destroyed family. He had just celebrated his 30th birthday. Thank you for chosing this song, that touches my grieving, sad, sad heart. In memory of my son, 2/11/90-11/11/20.
Sorry for your loss. A parent never expects to bury their child.
My child passed away in June 2020. She was 34. It is incredibly painful even after time has passed.
Saying a prayer for you.✝️🙏🏻
God bless you. We are part of a group no one wants to join. Bless you Mama.
Oh honey I'm devastated for you. Oh yourself broken heart I'm so sad for your family. Love an peace please come to you. Please know he is an angel watching over you. Nothing harder to go through.
I lost my daughter 2 years ago. The week before Thanksgiving. I still miss her. Thank you for sharing this Worship song ❤❤❤
I lost my son in 86 you will never get over it
@@MichaelHayes-uj9odI am so so sorry. I hope that the pain will ease
Sorry for your loss. May you see your child in heaven some day.
The difference between talent and a true “gift” from God. Talent is OK. GIFTING moves ♥️ hearts to tears
Oh my goodness...i have no words..this touches my soul
3-yrs ago today my wife of 47-yrs said I had to let her go.
3-yrs ago at 05:30 tomorrow morning, while nestled in my arms, my wife departed this earth for heaven.
Thank you. Blessings.

And in the last few years so many of us have lost loved ones
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😂

Beauitful.tears in heaven is my favorite song .thank u for singing it?❤❤❤❤❤❤
The original story behind this song is heartbreaking. I've lost loved ones but Eric Clapton's story makes me cry everytime I hear this song.
Beautiful
Absalutly it it is ❤ Heart. Breaking.

I'm sure going to miss him singing with Home Free. I'm sure he will do well!
I have to add that, in my 77 years, I’ve not heard his equal either! The acapella group Home Free is fortunate to have him as their lead singer!
Just discovered that Austin is no longer part of Home Free, so my comment above is uninformed to the max!😢
He has the most beautiful voice and the words are beautiful 4:48
Every one of the performers in Home free are amazing singers and artists. Austin and Tim do things that other sigers can't.

I know my husband Dale is at peace in heaven. He never thought he was going to heaven, but I know he's there. And I do hope to " see him in heaven"
What a gift our Mighty God Jesus Christ has given you Austin! The same goes for all your associates! They are all among the finest artists in music today!!
My sister inlaw passed on this morning im playing this for her you will be missed 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
So sorry about your sister in law and the song is indeed a great song too.
Hope you having a great day today.
I lost my brother when he was 2 months old........ I love him and miss him still so very much and I am 70 now. Heartbreak never goes away from your heart. God bless u Tony my darling xxxx xxxx
I'm old, 76 years and counting, but I've never heard of you until now. Nothing on TV, I'm alone, so got on youtube and found you and your music. You're fantastic. I'm amazed. I'll start following you. Wishing you the best in everything you do.
Vivian, you're never alone when we are all here for you. ❤
Same here..wow..
Eric Clapton
Wrote this song about his 4 year son who fell through a 53rd story window. So sad but it's songs like this that hard hearted people like me need to hear to feel something and overcome this hard heart.
Thank you Austin God bless you.
I lost my son in 1979
And still never a day goes by without me thinking of him.
I know He's in heaven 😇
He is essentially singing a capella - he really needs no one to play a background. His talent is amazing!
Absolutely beautiful
Abso, but I'd still like to acknowledge Sebastian's musicianship. It brings a lot to the song. Just beautiful!
A beautiful song beautifully sung with a beautiful,understated piano accompaniment. A capella singing is singing WITHOUT musical accompaniment.
@@joangordon3376 Yes, and I said, he really didn't need the accompaniment because he seemed to bd singing the song A capella. I guess I meant that he didn't really need anyone to play any music for him.
Just his voice & one instrument. WOW.
Yeah is voice us extremely beautiful and the song is great too.
Hello Cynthia, how are you doing today?
This was played at my 7 y/o granddaughter’s funeral. She loved the song and would place her hand in mine at the verse of, Would You Hold My Hand. I was completely crushed when her mother surprised me at her funeral with this song. I am just now getting to where I can listen to it. You did this so beautifully. Thank You!
Sorry for your loss 😔 😢
Penny my condolences to you and your family your. Grand daughter is safe in the arms of our lord Jesus
You are truly blessed 🥰
Blessings to you.
So sorry for your loss there's nothing worse than losing a child God bless you and your family 💞
If you've never lost someone you truly love, you'll never understand how heartbreaking this song really is.
Sad reality song, but touches everyone's heart who had lost someone we love...
@@felominaokdal9995 exactly, who among us has not lost someone we truly love, I doubt there is anyone.
I’ve lost both of my parents. They are in heaven. My dad tried to explain what he was see right before he quit talking. In about a day, he went on home. Later on, my mother passed away. The last thing she said was Jesus. It was like she was seeing Him. I can’t wait to see them again.
I lost my husband at the age of 51,we were married 42 yras when he died, so this song means alot to me, thank you so much for your music!!!
Well I certainly have, and totally understand. Can't wait to reunite in Heaven. Love you always, Mike❣ Austin you are my new favorite singer. Absolutely beautiful. Love this music, and love you. God bless❣
Thank you for this sweet song. My 42 year old son passed away six years ago. It seems like yesterday. Knowing he’s in heaven gives me peace. Keep singing young man. You and all the musicians and talented folks who contribute to making the songs unforgettable, I thank you.
His voice helped my heart ❤
Austin you need a standing ovation AMEN❤🙏
One of his best selling songs in the US for a sad situation. Everyone felt his grief!
My husband of 43 years passed away 2/8/22 my heart and soul are 100% lost I’m devastated my life has been a living nightmare
Penelope
I lost my dear love almost two years ago. I know this pain, the deepest and worst, when life is a chaos of nothingness. But every smile of hers, every kiss, every glance, is like a tattoo on my mind and that's the only joy I can grab, my only comfort. Stay strong Penelope, like the wife od Odysseus was...I send you my hug. I have no kind of faith, but even if nobody knows anything about that, one day, will meet her again. Love is stronger than everything.💐💐💐
My husband and I both had tears in our eyes while listening to this. Your range and ability to sing so many genres of music is fantastic. Don't ever let anyone pigeonhole you into doing just one thing.
You have an amazing vocal range. I could listen to you all day.

Um...why?
So beautiful! This song always reminds me of my brother "Johnny" who was hit by a car & killed at 6 years old. I know he's in heaven now, but he already acted like a little angel here on earth his 6 short years 💙💙💙
I lost my sweet husband of 54 years three years ago. This song just brought tears to my eyes, even though it's been awhile. I know he is waiting for me in heaven! Austin, you sang this song beautifully!
I lost 2 boys 2011 2014. This song means allot. Thanks for singing this. I love it.
Awe baby I’m so sorry for your lose God has you
There are no words to describe your talent. Please don't ever stop singing.
I so agree. Please keep singing! 🌷
Beautiful rendition👍🏻💕
I agree ❤️🏴😇
TY Austin I played your version for my wife which I pray that she could hear it she passed May 4th 2019.
😢 Yes I am sure your darling wife heard this song playing for her. When my Dad was dying the nurse told me the last senses to go is the hearing. So I'm sure your wife heard your words to her. Xx
God bless I feel your loss
Just before she took her last breath she asked me to promise that I would talk to her everyday and play some music for her. She said she would try to listen. ❤️J
My husband passed in 2020 and I miss him so much, this song is so touching ❣️ I love it 🙏
This was my deceased husband's favorite song. He even sang it to me once, and he can't carry a tune, but it was even more beautiful than your version. My darling has been gone for 11 years and I miss him more than I ever have simplybecause I listened to this. I cried all the way through. Thank you so very very much!
So sorry about your husband and I know how it feels when I lost my wife 7 years back and this don’t was it Favourite as well. But I have to let go even if the pain is always there. You must let go Karen and you must not cry all day ok. Just let it go and focus on the future ok 👍
Hope you having a good day today.
the loss doesn't go away. for me its almost 8 1/2 years.
Your response let's you and us out here know that he is still alive in your heart and mind. He will be until that one precious day when he greets you in heaven.
🎉🎉🎉May God grant us a happier New Year in 2025, in spite of the worries about the dangers of nuclear holocaust, falling on some of our cities. 🎉🎉🎉
Austin, your voice is beyond beautiful. This song brought tears to my eyes.
Every time I hear an Austin Brown/Sebastien Douyon collaboration, I am amazed at Austin's singing and Sebastien's accompaniment. Both are amazingly talented. What I sometimes fail to take into consideration is the genius environment in which each video is filmed. This is just the perfect setting for the song with two artists who bring powerful experiences to each of their listeners and video followers. Of course, the very talented Amberly who filmed this experience deserves a shout out for her large part in this production.
Wonderfully stated!!!!
How right you are. I recently lost my husband and never knew what the word grief meant until now. Memories make it worse, . People say they hall but not me. I feel almost suicidal every day. What’s there to live for.
@@nancyraimer6968 Please, please take the idea of suicide off the table even for consideration. There is so much to live for. We rarely know what a big, positive influence we can have on others. I lost a son unexpectedly 6 years ago. I miss him everyday, but my memories and knowing that at some point I will join him keeps me going. I know that he would want me to live e everyday to its fullest. I allow myself some time to just sit and contemplate the good times we had. As a result of his death, I found Home Free and with some help from my daughter and some HF fans have actively tried to be a positive influence everyday. There are days I am not 100% positive, but I do give thanks everyday for my health and for family and friends who are a blessing. I frequently pray for someone I see that looks like they could use something positive in their lives. As I frequently tell one of my best friends ever, you never know the good that you can do just by a kind word or a smile or just by listening. Below is the National Suicide Hotline: 1-800-273-8255. My friend also reminds me that life and be a series of baby steps. One lives with grief sometimes one day at at a time, sometimes one hour at a time. HF recently did a song called "One Life ". ruclips.net/user/results?search_query=homefree+mental+health.
Besides, your husband wouldn't want you to do that. He knows, and he'll be waiting for you in Heaven, for as long as it takes God to call you home 🌹
I am sooo sorry for your loss 😢 I know your grief is very raw and all encompassing right now. I can’t tell you it gets better, but it somehow becomes more tolerable. I pray that you will hang in there - one day, one hour, one minute, one second at a time🙏 May the peace of the Lord be with you. You don’t know me, but I love you 😊 Please don’t give up! Hugs to you now and every day❣️
Beautiful performance of this really sad and haunting a song! Losing someone important in life can be very painful. Losing your child is one of the worst thing that could ever happen!
I lost my oldest son almost eleven years ago, killed by a hit and run driver, what I’ve learned since then is just how many others have lived through the same thing, so so many. Not that I thought I was the only one, but the truth is that chances are no matter where you go, you will be in the midst of others suffering the same heartbreak. In my own family, one sister in law lost two daughters a few years apart, her sister lost a son, and there are more….right after I went back to work after my sons death, a lady I know came to express her sympathy and said she knew what I was going through, she lost her daughter and two grandchildren in a house fire on Christmas Eve. I read that people think they can’t go on, but we do, we somehow just find the strength to carry on. I remember the accident when Eric lost his little boy, my heart truly ached for the family, it was so terribly sad. Austin certainly put his heart in this sad but beautiful song.
You're Voice goes deep in my Heart& Soul.. LoVe
@@lolaottinger6976 , I’m so sorry 😞
@@lolaottinger6976 I lost my second child to congenital heart disease. She lived 10 days and spent the entire time in NICU. It took me years to get over it. The one thing I learned was how important it is to grieve at the time of your loss. Don’t be brave, taking care of everyone else.
My daughter lost her daddy when she was just 10 years old. She's 23 now and still cries because she misses him so much. It's hard watching her hurt so much.
Stunning. I'm sure Eric Clapton feels you've done it justice. ♥️😇♥️
I agree, 100%. …a wonderful soul searching voice❤️🏴🇨🇦
❤ I'm sure Eric Clapton would ❤, I love it
Brought tears to my eyes, as I buri d my oldest son when he was 3 1/2 (medical malpractice). Thank You for your rendition of this beautiful song ...
I hope you have found some peace and comfort since your terrible loss. Can't wish you a Merry Christmas, that would be crass, but I do wish you joy, in time.
I lost my 28 year old son in a car wreck on 5/4/2003. I still miss him today. Some days I just can't get off the couch. 😢
They should have an emoji that says sad. That's along with mad is what I am feeling. I'm so sorry for your loss Sandy M.
Absolutely incredible Austin, bravo sir. Standing ovation.
Thank you for sharing your beautiful gift!!!
Hello Linnet, how are you doing today?
You’re guaranteed a place in heaven when your time comes because you give so much joy to people when you sing. I could listen to you all day and night as I get a sense of peace listening to your wonderful voice
Such a beautiful voice so soothing for the soul ! God Bless you !
Played this at my daughter's funeral (she was born sleeping) 25 years and took me many years to listen to it again, thank you Austin for this version as it made me cry, but with tears of joy.
The back story for this song rips your heart out, but Eric would applaud the performance. Good job.
Beautiful performance. Strong vocals. Wish I was next door to him during the pandemic. Concert time!
Yes that would be wonderful. He is an amazing singer and person.. I love to hear him sing and I love the group Home Free as well..
fortunately he posted it on here for us! when he gets more famous we might be left in the dust, though. LOL.
Unforgettable I remember hearing it shortly after the tragedy. I've heard so many versions since but apart from the saddest song a man for his lost child your version touched a chord in my heart
Thank you Austin
Wow, wow, wow
My "knight in shining armour"....passed in 2013....cant wait to see him in heaven !!! My heart aches still.....😢💔
This song really touched my heart. My son died a month ago and he left behind a beautiful wife and two children, plus his parents and brother. You sung this so beautifully and with great feeling. Thank you so much for this song.
So sorry for your loss.
@@cheryljohnson977 Thank you. It’s the hardest thing I have ever been through, but my faith and the prayers of many have helped me.
I feel your pain, sorrow first hand..May God keep y'all in his loving arms always....bless y'all🙏🌹
I'm so sorry Jean. 🙏💜🙏
Tonight I'm going to light a candle near the altar for your son and his family in my street church here in Turin Italy. My prayers are with you.
It's not just about your voice, Austin, it's the presence as well. The space you fill with love and light. The love and light you share from within with the rest of us. Gorgeous, heartfelt, beautiful, warm.
And Sebastien is so good on those keys, the way he supports your voice with the emotions of the music. Again, beautiful and heartfelt.
Thank you, both of you! 🥰🙏
I couldn't have said it better myself, Carina, you said it beautifully.
My big brother, Rick, passed away this morning. I am creating a Rick's Playlist. This is a You Tube Video he sent me. Thank you so much. You meant a lot to him, and you mean a lot to me. Bless you.
My Condolences to you and your family. Prayers to you and your family. :(
Hauntingly beautiful.
The voice of an angel. So clear and he hold nothing back! His heart and soul come thru in everything he does! Beautifully done.
I'm 72 years old haven't sang in almost 20 years I would love to learn this song to sing to my husband who is also 72 and having a hard time with COPD we miss our music and being together listening to music I'm so happy to have seen this channel and heard you sing this song thank you I will find the words and have your music and sing along with you until I get this down or my husband thank you and God bless you thank you for bringing me back to our God God bless you
This is beyond anything I could ever ask for. It was so beautiful and you sang it with such emotion!! I felt like my daddy was looking down and telling me that yes he would know me, greet me with a giant bear hug, and show me all around heaven. Thank you so much for sharing your talent with the world.
“Would you know my name?” A hauntingly genuine question that many people wonder about. Interesting lyrics and again Austin you gave it your best. Beautiful and heavenly vocals. I loved it !😇🙏🎶💗
I love your voice and talent. This song touched me tremendously- I lost my 29 year old son on 12/3/20 and grieve him everyday. I know he’s in heaven watching over me. Thanks Austin and God Bless
Hello how are you doing
Your son is by your side…forever ..God be with you for comfort and love🙏❤️
This was just gorgeous this brought tears to my eyes it is so heartfelt Mr Austin Brown is in a league of his own there is nothing that he cannot sing and make it spectacular he is just amazing God Bless you keep doing what you do 👏
Agree 100%!!
Great job Austin! Beautiful
Agree!!
So beautiful. After losing my daughter this year this really touched my heart. Such an amazing job Austin.
So sorry for your loss 🙌🏼🌸
❤️
The seperation is only temporary, Becky.
You will meet her again.....and she will know your name!
Be strong in Christ!
I'm so sorry for your loss. 🤗
So very sorry❤️❤️❤️
Austin Brown has the most amazing voice that I’ve ever heard and im 71 years old !! Incredible voice !!!
Absolutely perfect. I cried knowing the reason the song was written but also because you sang it so beautifully. Thank you. 💕
I just seen you guys on stage at the Strawberry festival. I especially love when you all sing the feeling songs like this one. God bless. I bought 4 of your cds there. Please keep singing.
My little brother was killed when he was 5 this song reminds me so much of him and praying I see him when it’s my time.
Austin you a fabulous voice and the scenery is gorgeous, beautiful night.❤
Yes you right with is beautiful voice.
Hello Linda, hope you having a good and pleasant day today?
Lost my 25 yr old daughter in 2007 this is beautiful ❤
What a tearjerker really pulls on the heartstrings. Austin did an absolutely breathtaking performance. Had both goosebumps and tears throughout!🥺🥺
Me to.
@@sunnywilliams; English grammer correction.; " Me Too" 🥺
@@ParisXII Didn't know this Sight has Grammar Police , but thanks for the advice .
On the day my father was dying to keep him calm I played Home Free singing Amazing Grace, and How Great Thou Art. When I hear it now it takes on a stronger message. Thank you so much for keeping his passing good for him.
I am fiercely loyal to original artists, but for the first time in 58yrs I can honestly say that you nailed it and not so much as a millimetre short either. Beautiful!!!!!.
Holy wow Austin…I just heard you sing unchained melodies and then this one…you took my breath away…truly… thank you for sharing your energy,your absolutely amazing voice… wow what you can do with a song…wow
Don't know if you've heard them, but you really must check out Home Free, the a cappella group that Austin sings with. They are fantastic! I was never a big fan of music without instrumentation, but this group has totally won me over...seems like I don't get through a day without listening to their music or watching one of their concerts on RUclips. I am absolutely addicted to them...all five of these guys have tremendous musical abilities and their warmth and humor is unsurpassed.
Great job Austin.
You should watch him in Home Free ‘When a man loves a woman’ 🥵❤️
He is such a gifted and beautiful artist. I haven’t listened to music in a very long time but I stumbled upon him and listening to Austin feels my heart with so many emotions. I will listen to all of his music.🙏🏻
ditto. I couldn't say it better.
This song and the beauty of your voice brings healing to all those brokenhearted people in this world.
I remember when this song first came out, shortly after Eric Clapton lost his son, Conor. It made me cry.
Oh how this touched our hearts. We have lost numerous friends and a family member to covid. We look forward to seeing them all again. God love you for this stirring rendition of "Tears in Heaven".
Dear Austin, I first came in contact with your immense talent last night, with a rendering of one truly immortal song that means so much to me, Unchained Melody. Your duet with Steven Martinez had me in tears. And once again you bring your uncanny talent to make this gem, Tears in Heaven, your own. I've sent links to many friends, in special to my Alabamian friends to also go see you and Home Free in Huntsville two days from now. I live in MA. I hope one day I'll see you live on stage! May God make all your dreams come true, and your love and gratitude be returned to you a thousand-fold!
Thank you.
Absolutely... Same here. He immediately became my favorite singer. Love his voice and his choice in songs.
@@timknight6258 Right! As I said, I hope to see him and Home Free on stage one day. Nice follow up with 222K subscriptions, although, given the monster talent that number be in the millions, in my modest opinion! Thank you for reaching out to me. In these crazy days, musicians such as these give us some reassurance sanity at all levels shall prevail. Cheers!
Thank you Brother, from a Nursing Home In Auburn, CA. ❤❤❤
A very sad song-no parent should outlive their offspring. I truly appreciate your respectful treatment of Clapton and his song. Beautiful rendition Austin, and Sebe’s delicate touch on the piano made this song even more emotional. 😞
Hello Yolanda
How are you doing today?
I agree whole heartedly
And yet, it's only very recently that the average parent didn't bury several babies and children.
Great choices and vouce
Fantastic cover of one of Eric Clapton’s greatest hits. You sang it with so much feeling as well Austin. May his son always R.I.P. and God Bless to all involved in this beautiful cover🙏🙏
I like the simplicity of your music and style of singing. I already left a lengthy comment on your “Unchained Melody “. This is a beautiful song by Eric Clapton written from personal tragedy. When it first came out, knowing the story, brought tears to many hearts. It still touches hearts.🥰
Austin you really know how to touch my heart with your gorgeous voice. This song has so much meaning to me because I lost my true love on 9/11. He was a NYC firefighter who saved so many lives except his own. He died a hero. I'll always love him and never forget him. Till we meet again. 💔💔❤️😇🙏😇🙏
Thank you for sharing your talent. You bring so much comfort to so many including me. Keep singing. Thanks to you and your love ones!
A great hero
@@nikkimclay5474 thanks so much, he truly was 🙏😇🙏❤️💔
So very sorry for your loss. He is a hero and paid the ultimate price
@@janinemaxwell4297 thanks so much. Yes he was a hero. 💔🙏😇🙏
Having lost 2 children this song is very close to my heart. Will be great with Austin singing.
I'm so sorry for your loss.
I'm sorry for your loss.
@@Honestly173 thank you.😇
65 so or years ago my brother Michael died of lukemia. I was 3, but remember lying in the hospital bed (in our home). He died soon after. I don't remember much about my childhood, but this is etched in my memory. I have listened to this song numerous times, but after listening to this my memories came flooding back. THANK YOU!!!!
Hi there, where are you from?
First Home Free singing a beautiful song. Just one hour later you two with this heartbreaking performance. It's a wonderful day.
This song was used for a montage that was dedicated to my 4 yr old Grand-daughter who was murdered by her step-father. It made me cry but Austin's voice is absolutely amazing!!
@ Bonnie Taylor
I am so very sorry for your loss, I can't even imagine your sorrow but please know, you will see her sweet face again. May God continue to be your strength, comfort and peace.
Bless you and your family x
I don’t even have the words to adequately describe what’s in my heart when I hear you sing. You did an outstanding rendition of this heartfelt song. Hearing this on the third day of November is particularly meaningful to me as I lost my husband 27 years ago this month to lung cancer. This song touches my heart every time I hear it. Your voice brings me such joy and peace when I hear you sing.
This month would have been our Anniversary,but lost my husband,my soul mate ,my best friend. Thank you for this. You both stay safe and happy. Much love!
🙏🙏
💔🤗
My husband died 3 years ago, March 28, 2019. I hope to see him in heaven one day - for real! This is so powerful and warming. And the keyboardist--he is phenomenal!
DECEMBER 23rd marks 7yrs to the day💞💗💞😭 I love you soooo much momma....fly high until we meet again you will live in my heart!
The best cover I've ever heard. So much feeling and emotion. Thanks for recording this classic. Such a great comfort in your expression.
Your voice is an absolute gift from God, and thank you for using it well! That was beautiful!
I love hearing you sing. You have been bless with such a beautiful voice.
Yeah you right.
Hello Sandra, how are you doing today Sandra
Loved your rendition & I am always impressed with Sebastian’s playing. He is also a great addition to your singing!
An extraordinary talented young man. Gives me goosebumps when he sings beautiful ballads. Keep up the exceptionally beautiful singing 🥰
Austin truly has a blessed voice.
Beautiful, one of my faves! I play this song a lot when I miss my sister. Who passed from cancer. I know the story of this song... He wrote it for his son that passed. I love the way you sang the song. Always cry when I here this song!
My brother passed away on7/9/23 found you on his Facebook page he loved your singing so I dedicated you to him❤️
I am 71 and I love your voice , you and the other guys you play and sing with this are soothing,and make me enjoy music again.
Hello 👋 how are you doing?
Amen and Amen. This was so beautiful, it brought tears to my eyes😥😇😇😇😥 I lost my twins, and I am so anxious to see them again, and I know they will know me, and I will know them❤💋❤
My parents had 6 children together and Unbeknownst to them 1/2 of them were born with Myotonic muscular dystrophy that would not develop until they hit puberty. Well I became a nurse because of them and was with 2 of them as they passed and spent every day with the other sibling ( my best friend growing up) during his terminal phase right up until the day he died. I just try to envision them in heaven all visiting and laughing with my family and talking plainly, playing sports, and doing all the things that this disease stole from them. I long for the day we can be reunited and they can tell me all about it. Thanks for this beautiful cover.
Austin, Your Voice Is A Beautiful Gift From God - Thanks For Sharing With All
Lovely, Austin. Truly touches my heart.
Amen 🙏🏽 No More Tears In Heaven ☦️☦️🕊️💝🦋One Of Gods Promises ❣️
OH YES When I read the title I was like !!!! So excited for this masterpiece to be interpreted by such a great true artist
Such a beautiful message so beautifully performed by you and Sebastien. Your talent is without equal. Keep on doing what you love.
I lost my daughter 27 years ago and my husband 11 years ago! Oh wow how the tears are coming down! Thank you Austin Brown! I know I will see them again! Everyday is day I know I am going to be able to see them again!!❤❤❤
Well, I wasn't expecting to cry today, but Austin put so much feeling into this song I couldn't help it.
Austin releasing his cover, Home Free releasing their cover of My Country Tis of Thee. Today couldn't get much better. Thank you so much. Oh and I saw Dawg in the background! Amazing cover Austin you totally nailed it!
At last some real feeling. Just beautiful. Thank you.
