I heard the first time when I was on the edge of suicide from being so tired of everything. The last line literally had my growing this 'death tree' in my mind and it set me free. This song saved my life...
Ewing Leong I hope you are doing alright. I’m having tough moments right now as well, also tired of life being so damn hard sometimes. But we gotta hang in there just for the good times. The good times are worth living life. Cheers
Had literally just moved out of my house after finding out my partner had been cheating on me, basically, for the entire relationship. I had helped raise her son for years. My job collapsed as well, victim to the 2008 economic crisis. I was alone in a strange apartment, surrounded by the ruins of my whole life. My brain had been ramped to "11" for weeks: the shock and impact broke it in half, never turning off, never giving me a minute of peace. Sitting on a futon in my empty living room, I stupidly rented "Once". I shattered into a million pieces.
The first time I saw this film, this particular track made me cry for reasons that I didn't understand. I'd just gotten married the previous year, but I was already unhappy and beginning a spiral into addiction. A few short years later, my husband admitted he'd been doing terrible things in secret that I won't recount here, waiting for me to "discover that [he's] an inexcusably bad person" (his words). He told me I had "let" him become a monster, and that he'd never really loved me, and I was to blame for all of our problems. I took the kids and left him, but it was another year before I could convince him to divorce me. This song takes me back to that rainy afternoon when I first realized something was going terribly wrong. If I could go back, I'd tell my younger self that everything would be okay; I just needed to wind it up and let it go.
I think it's time, we give it up And figure out what's stopping us From breathing easy and talking straight The way is clear if you're ready now The volunteer is slowing down And taking time to save himself The little cracks they escalated Before we knew it was too late For making circles and telling lies You're moving too fast for me And I can't keep up with you Baby, if you slow down for me I could see you're only telling lies, lies, lies Breaking us down with your lies, lies, lies When will you learn? The little cracks they escalated And before we knew it was too late For making circles and telling lies You're moving too fast for me And I can't keep up with you Maybe if you'd slow down for me I could see you're only telling lies, lies, lies Breaking us down with your lies, lies, lies When will you learn? So plant the thought and watch it grow Wind it up and let it go
This song makes me feel extremely sad but extremely happy at the same time because I had a similar experience with someone. The song brought back fond memories of them. However it also brought me to terms with the fact that the person is gone now. Beautiful song!
@water2chick Yeah he is alittle 'aggressive' with it lol:) It's akin to having a soccer mom cheering at a kids ballet recital- now I can't stop laughing at it.

I came back to listen to this song again because I shared it a long time ago.

How you doin? Hope you’re ok and going strong xx
I hope you're doing better now. This song saved me from a horrendous breakup too. I've found someone better now.

wraps you in my arms.. this song is all
Un grand Monsieur, merci beaucoup Pascal FRANCE
Glen and Damien - legends forever
Seriously in my opinion the soundtrack of this movie is PERFECT...
I think the same as you
moved to tears, but perfect always!
Mmmmh makes me jalous that I have no musical gifts.
FrolicFutile don't be jealous, be inspired, and pick something up!
Micro My Blood thank you, I think I'm picking up Russian, much better in the language department, going pretty well so far.
This is one of the most beautiful songs, melodically and lyrically written. Fuck I wish had written it
Glen's voice is like a violin in this song. one of my favourite
I forgot how many times this song made me cry

So relatable! Great song and I too get lied to a lot!
This song calms me, yet makes me very sad :(

Yori Andrian You're not on 9gag sir

Hopefully this endures and in 100 years time Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova are being played on the radio on classic fm.
nice thought
Just watched the movie Once, Excellent......
This whole song moves me
What an incredible song. Every single time that final chorus hits it moves me.
I love this man's voice. It sings exactly what I'm feeling whenever I listen to him, only more intensely...
Absolutely brillant. Thank you

I love these two!! Like they were made to sing together. What music should sound like.
Quelle voix, un vrais bonheur. ......

I think it's time, we give it up
And figure out what's stopping us
From breathing easy and talking straight
The way is clear if you're ready now
The volunteer is slowing down
And taking time to save himself
The little cracks they escalated
Before we knew it was too late
For making circles and telling lies
You're moving too fast for me
And I can't keep up with you
Baby, if you slow down for me
I could see you're only telling lies, lies, lies
Breaking us down with your lies, lies, lies
When will you learn?
