MY MOST EMOTIONAL REACTION / James Blunt - Monsters REACTION

[subservient]

1 month later comment may be too late. but just wanted to let you know that even though you think you can't relate as well just because you never connected with your father, you can become the father that your child could to relate this song. Its never to late to break the cycle. Fatherhood is perhaps the most important role for anyone on this planet.

Let the tears flow brother, we’re human! 😞👊🏻

I heard this song for the first time in the hospital garage in the morning after spending the night with my step-dad at the hospital after his heart attack and they found he had stage 4 lung cancer.

We both knew he didn't have a chance, and we talked for most of the night. I told him how much I appreciated him, loved him, and respected him for treating me as his flesh and blood even after he and my mom split up years before, and even mentioned the Brad Paisley song; "He Didn't Have to Be" and played it for him.

When I got in the car in the morning to go home, this song came on the radio. It absolutely 100% fucking broke me. He died a few weeks later and I'm so glad I got to tell him everything i flt before he died.

I had read the the line, "I'm not your son, your not my father, we're just two men saying goodbye." was what they used to say to each other when they left for war while they were both serving in the British Army.

I remember sitting at my mothers side on her last day telling her it was ok to go home in Spanish because in her last 3 months she had lost the ability to speak in English.

James and his father were both officers in the British military. I heard James donated all the proceeds from this amazing song to the wonderful UK charity 'Help For Heroes' who do so much fantastic work with ex-servicemen & women, so it was a lovely thing to do. 🙋‍♂ ❤

This was the first time that James sang the song to his dad. They did it in one take and apparently at the end of filming everyone was in tears from the crew. James' dad being from the generation of the British Stiff Upper Lip and being ex Military Officer like James, apparently said *What's everyone crying for, I'm Not dead yet*
Thinking of your friend and his dad. It's hard when a parent is ill. I lost my dad last year aged 84 after suffering from a lung condition. I watched this video a few times since he passed. Always tears, but They are healing as are memories.

I will send positive vibes to your friend's Dad through you, they will find their way to him! My cousin just brought me sad news, he has cancer both in his bladder and his prostate, but thankfully it was caught in the real early stages and hopefully will be cleared up in a matter of months.
How are you doing through all of this? You know the man and might I say you feel pretty close to him so he is like a father to you in some way, I hope he lives close enough to you so that you can go visit him! You will both feel better!

I lost my dad in 2019. How did I not know about this song. It's a tear fest for sure. I miss you dad.

[beckymarshall]

JB, I know this was hard for you. You are such a loving and good friend to react to this song to honor your friend and his father. You are loving man who isn't afraid to show emotion. Thank you.

[stevecausier]

Don’t be embarrassed to show emotion, it takes a man to cry !

[glassesgripper]

Both James and his father were in the British military and when either would be deployed they used to say this to each other: “we’re just two grown men saying g goodbye.”

[cheryladamic]

I love the pat his dad gives him at the end of the video-like he is saying it is going to be ok.

[KUKIDOCLUBBING]

The whole of this Song and video is just so powerful! His dad was dying and he wrote this as a goodbye! The whole crew were in tears as were james tears! very pure...And due to the video they found a Kidney donor and saved him! Such a gorgeous song. I cant listen without tearing up every time! Having lost my dad due to Covid and Cancer it literally BROKE me the 1st time i saw it!

[lindabarry]

Do you know how amazin kind an a really sweet person u r ..been watching awhile seen u go some hard shit ..I jus wish u d best ..all luv n hugs from Ireland 🇮🇪 ..ur amazin x

[dgator]

I don't know how anyone can not be touched by this song. All children will go through this at one time in their life with someone they love. Not only do I think of my father who passed when I was 19, but now, my husband has dementia and it tears me up even more with him. Life and living is difficult and aging is not for the faint of heart. Thanks for being you and keeping it real. Prayers to you and your friend.

[cherylh.]

I have lost my dad first then my mother. I cry every day and thank God for giving me to them. James and his father were both in the Military and that’s how they said goodbye, we are just two men saying goodbye.

[flutesong]

Not having your father around is the harshest way to "lose" a father. Not your fault any more than cancer would be. The "I'm not you son, you're not my father" is used to explain that they have also become adults and equals

[politicalscientist]

becoming a dad has finallyh made me realise all that my dad has done for me

[jeannette]

You did not want to do this but you did it anyway. It is a testament to your love for your friend. Kudos. And emotions are nothing to be shamed of. (I cried my eyes out btw.)
