At the time of this video, James Blunt’s “Monsters” they were told his father was dying from chronic kidney disease as he only had one kidney from previous donation. This video was the first time his father heard the song. A distant relative heard about it and ended up being a donor match. James’s father is alive and doing well. James did not allow any editing

[KajunMoo]

That is his Dad in the video who is now doing well after receiving a kidney transplant. From this video being watched worldwide, a distant cousin came forth and was a match, which James was not. This was recorded in one take as James wanted his raw emotions to not be filtered out. This was also the first time his Dad heard the song. James said after the end of the song, the crew as well as James were crying. His Dad asked “why all the crying? I’m still here!”

[youngthing]

James and his father were both military men. James was actually a Captain in the !999 Kosovo war. When he was being deployed, his father would say: "You're not my son, I'm not your father, we're just two grown men saying goodbye...". This song breaks me every time I hear it. The video was shot in one take, because James wanted the emotion to be raw and genuine.

[MalcolmBelcher]

As mentioned by another person it was done in one take because neither James nor the crew were emotionally stable enough to do a second take - it's amazing

[TMS-zjbi]

My dad is in the hospital dying as I write this. This song has a brought me to my knees in the past I just know it it going to just about kill me right now! Thank you for this reaction video. May God bless you and yours on this and every day!

[anitaherbert]

You will be happy to know this song saved his dad's life.

I lost my father at the age of 21yrs old in 1992 and I still cry for him. As a father myself, I talk to my kids about my father that they know him through my & my memories. This is how we help keep our loved ones alive in our hearts, never forget them and tell their story. Your are truly blessed to still have your father in this world as I am to still have my mother

[redangel]

My Dad was the best man i ever knew . ❤

[mandamanda]

I just lost my dad 17 days ago to cancer and ultimately heart failure. All 5 of us siblings were there on his death bed. It was a beautiful thing for us all to come together.. and in the end we were all concerned about consoling our dad and making sure he wasn't afraid. So. This father's day.. I am grateful for my siblings... and missing my dad ❤

[v.downes]

I must of seen this video 100s of time and I still cry.

[deborahdennehy]

I lost my father through cancer & he lost so much weight I shall never forget. I was 30 yrs old, so no youngster. This song from James Blunt was amazing from him, actually thinking his father was to die, but fortunately he survived from a donor. RIP dad 😥

[MikeWashburn-zy]

I lost my father to Alzheimer's 3 years ago. I will never forget the last time we were both able to say goodbye! This song is so true! Love ya Dad!

[seththomas]

Try watching it over and over it doesn't get easier🤧😭

[bradsmith]

This one hits like a train. I lost my dad in November and this is my first Fathers Day without him. He had such a quiet strength and confidence all i can do is feel his loss and remember hiw wisdom. Thx

[anderslekander]

I have heard this song many times, crying everytime, if you don't cry you don't have a heart ♥

[blce]

I had a horrible relationship with my father. This song makes me cry every time because of what could have been.

[carolclark]

Dear James, this song should come with a "Sadness Warning" and a complimentary box of tissues.
For all those who have lost their Dads...💖 Much love

[savageman]

I have never heard this before. Sobbing here. On an uplifting note, I took great joy watching my children with their babies yesterday. Happy Father's Day.

[DEWDLES]

I love it at the end when his Dad pats his arm but everyone stops it too soon

[manna]

Both genuine war heroes too, father and son. Massive respect for James Blunt. X
