It sounds like the "turning point" in a musical, where the main character realised they stuffed everything up and are about to go make it right!

you're right and now I want the whole musical... gah I've never wanted musical talent more in my life, I just want to write this!

IT SOUNDS LIKE WORDS FAIL AT THE BEGINNING OMG

Lol so true, i imagine them running dramatically


I SAW A REPLY FROM HER RECENTLY SAYING SHE WAS THINKING ABOUT IT (CHRISTMAS SONGS BUT WEIRD VID)!

Yes pls yes pls yes pls YES PLS YES PLS YES PLEASE

OH MY GOSH. That would be beyond amazing.

NEED. PLS. ALL ORIGINAL CHRISTMAS SONGS MUST BE ON  IT HOLY CRAP.


Imagine this song playing in the background of an advert of an old man reminiscing to his grand daughter about how the world used to be at Christmas time but overtime people forgot about it and she listens to her grandfather and goes out and spreads Christmas joy and she sees the world become how it used to be at Christmas time and her grandad walks out and sees the Christmas he used to know and he smiles

this is a coca-cola commercial and i love it

nomiru NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO

leila middleton No they went with stupid with #mozthemonter instead!

Someone call John Lewis this is amazing!

LEILA MIDDLETON well now we have Moz the Monster... I would rather have Dodie though lol

Could be a Hershey’s commercial. She could hand out Hershey’s kisses or something and then they’d just have to have some slogan about spreading Christmas cheer one kiss at a time or whatever. Maybe they’re her grandfather’s favorite sweet so she chooses them cause it’s all to make him happy. I’ve put way too much thought into this.

Someone get John Lewis for the new advert lo

geez way to ruin the happiness that was spreading through my body

...and then her granddad dies happily<br>sry i couldn't help it

...and then her granddad dies happily
sry i couldn't help it

Isabella Barry I'm crying now why'd you do that

Isabella Barry John Lewis Christmas ad 2016 please


my bestfriend died tonight, 3 hrs ago and i died too. 👤<br>she's a big a fan of urs she used to sing this to me everynight december 1 till christmas. she spend her time watching ur videos, and singing ur songs. and now that she's gone, there are no more singing and laughing with her. But thanks for inspiring her and making her happy. I know she's up there watching this. Dodie, may god bless you with everything.. You made my bestfriend feel loved, happy and full her heart with your kindness.

Im so sorry I hope this christmas is slightly better than 3 years ago and the ones after xx

Just reading this made me cry. I'm so sorry hon ❤ you'll see her again, but live for her, do the things she never got to.

I'm so sorry for your loss.... I think she is up there looking down at everyone on Christmas.

This is from a while ago but I wanted to say that I’m sorry for your loss and it’s nice you’re remembering the good times.

My deepest condolences... Sending all the luck, love and best positive wishes xxxx

The anniversary of an event can be hard but sing in her memory. She's happy were ever she end up you should be too. Merry Christmas ❣

I'm so sorry for your loss, but I truly believe that she's taking care of you now from heaven and smiles everytime you sing and laugh ❤

hannah banana this made me cry like the song... I'm so sorry for your loss 💖 a girl from my year at school suddenly died a while ago too of lukemia and I know how hard it is to lose someone... I'm always here, even if you don't know me xx

hannah banana I'm so so so so sorry for you <33333 💗

bless you dear. this is such a hard thing to go through at any age, but especially when you are quite young. losing a best friend is losing a piece of yourself. i believe she is in a better place now, and is looking over you, laughing with you, and feeling so proud of you for dealing with this. you are stronger than you think; i wouldn't have been able to get over something like this. obviously, you won't be over it completely; this kind of pain lasts forever, we just have to find ways to cope with it. things get better, trust me.

hannah banana I'm so sorry for your loss that's so sad💛

"their eyes filled with tears and there was no more singing" but then the good times return they always do <3 <br>you can't have rainbows without rain

"their eyes filled with tears and there was no more singing" but then the good times return they always do <3
you can't have rainbows without rain

Brianna O'Connor you are never alone, mylove. i have to agree with you, i am listening to this song everyday, whenever i am sad or happy crying or laughing, whenever i need to talk tk my bestfriend this is the song i listen to.

hannah banana i am so sorry. I've lost many loved ones and I've noticed that you can never truly move on. Lately everything reminds me of someone and whenever I hear one of Dodie's songs, I start to cry. Isn't it amazing how something so ehh to someone is something so inspiring and beautiful to someone else. <br>I had to reply because every time I come to this video (like 5 times a day) I see your comment and it makes me feel like I'm not alone.

Sam Concio thank you, Sam. i still miss her though, her laughs, and wishing she's still here wiping my tears, or walking home with her. laughing in classes. lunch together. i miss her, so much.

hannah banana I'm so sorry for your loss but I'm glad you're thinking about her good days and how happy she was


next time it snows, i'm gonna bring my ukulele outside and sing this song out in the freezing snow.

I wish I could do that but I live in Arizona and it rarely ever snows

Faith Aloha thank you I love this song so much so i wanted to learn it!

firelily 81 Capo 4, D G Bm A<br>These four chords repeat throughout the song.  At the end of the chorus, the Bm and A repeat once.

holyhotpockets so if you do that you must know chords can you name them please (knowing my luck it's a joke so I won't be surprised if it is I'll just be slightly embarrassed)

holyhotpockets How did you read my mind?  That's exactly what I'm going to do.


"i dont love it but i like it" lol honestly m8 how can you not love this it's beautiful

I know!! I don't find it cheesy.. it's beautiful

+Phanime for real though, I've been playing it for an hour and my parents are silently judging me

I know right,,, it's a Christmas song but I keep coming back to it.

I just realized that she might make little songs everyday but think that they are not good enough so she doesn't tell us about the songs 😱

I LOVE this comment. Whole-heartedly agree with everything you said <3

It's the curse of the creative people. 99% of the time we look at our creations and think 'I could have done better!!!' &1% of the time look at our creations and think, 'Where the heck did that come from!!!'

Doodle you are such an amazing inspiration regardless of whether you like your stuff, love your stuff or just want to screw it up into tiny balls and throw them on the fire.  The fact that you upload your material is inspirational enough. :)

Chloe you basically summed up all my thoughts😂

+Phan Defence Squad oh my lord I love you for your comment and your username and your profile picture XD

i didnt like it, i loved it - simon cowell


Intertwined is out and I'm ready for a Christmas EP

HannahKateBell You is out (like 4 months ago but still) and I’m ready for a Christmas EP.

You is out and I'm waiting for a Christmas EP

HannahKateBell wow hey Hannah. And same tho I'm ready for a Christmas ep


Revisiting this exactly 2 years later because it's Christmas Eve and I'm still not over Dodie saying she doesn't love this!!! It gives me chills every time it goes into the chorus. This is one of the most beautiful Christmas songs made. End of discussion.


This is such a beautiful song it not even Christmas but I can't stop playing it I love it

Lily McCoombes damn, I thought this was Dan for a second and I was like "oh my heart" lol

Lily McCoombes It's November, and I love this song. I will be playing this all through december. I want to burn some of her songs onto a cd so i could listen to this in the car. God, please this is beautiful,


The last few Christmases have been really difficult for me and my family since my dad took his own life in Nov 2013 and this song completly summed up how I've felt about Christmas since then. It was my favourite time of year and now it's just really sad and not enjoyable but it's slowly coming back to me this year and I'm starting to feel a bit of Christmas spirit again somehow and this song has helped a lot! Thank you for this song Dodie xxx


If you can't write overly cheesy songs at Christmas, when can you write them? And needless to say this is ridiculously beautiful as everything you create, I don't know how you do it! Loved the crescendo in the chorus, it felt like it reflected the happy times after the sad ones! Okay I'll leave the poetry to you because I'm clearly bad at it. But happy Christmas to you and anyone reading this :)

I dont get how she doesn't love it, it is such a beautiful song. It isn't even halloween yet and I'm singing it round my house 😂😂

+Elizabeth Roche (Lizzie) it's in the description as usual :)

+doddleoddle love it can u send me the lyrics please

+ItalianRory :D thank you so much! MERRY CHRISTMAS


It's officially socially acceptable to listen to this song

Teodora Tudurache it's may and it's socially acceptable to listen to this song

Teodora Tudurache MERRY CHRISTMAS EVE EVE

GeaiHerbe AND NOW! WOOP ITS CHRISTMAS EVE!


Dodie: 'I don't love it'
Me: 'That's ok, I do!!'
It's lovely :)

Níamh Duffy <br>IS THAT DODIE YELLOW THOUGH?

Níamh Duffy
IS THAT DODIE YELLOW THOUGH?


I remember listening to this on Christmas Eve, a very stressful one at that, I was so so so anxious, and then this song came on and calmed me down. Is song forever holds a profound feeling of warmth and happiness. Thank you Dodie.


5 years later and this is still the most gorgeous christmas song ever, it also hits harder than ever given our current situation :( i miss the outside


Everything Dodie writes hits my heart so hard

+Rachel Campbell literally how i feel whenever she uploads an original song


This hits differently now.

But like hang on guys! We can find hope in each other!


"laughter with loved ones we haven't seen in a while" such a beautiful line.


I wish I had a voice as sweet and impactful as hers! All her music sticks with you and she has such a distinct voice love ya dodie!


Honestly this is so sweet c: Who cares if it is cheesy. If you're not happy with this, it'd be amazing if you polished it and published it on your main channel <3


This has a different vibe coming into Christmas season during covid time


Welp... I didnt expect this song to put me in my feels, but here we are...


Going into a second lockdown in England and realising how much Christmas is going to be effected, really needed this song again 💖


it is march. i am crying. because of a christmas song.

it is the middle of JULY and I am sobbing

And it's snowing here first time in 8 yrs SHOOK


I'd smile at snow IF THERE WAS ANY SNOW TO SMILE AT

Hello Fellow southerner (or just another hot place)

Reagan F. This is where I'd show off my snow... IF I HAD ANY

Reagan F. Over in the UK we have had several snowy days in November, but apparently, theres fifty-seven percent chance its gonna snow on christmas eve where I live. But I'll be away at my grandparents house for christmas.

@Ziad G Well, I mean, I live in California, Southern to be exact. Unless you live in the mountains, there will never be winter in southern california

I'd smile at snow IF THERE WAS ANY WINTER AT ALL...

Australia fam. Half of the days in Australia are at 40 degrees Celcius (that's like 100 Fahrenheit ugh)

I went back to this video. I saw this comment and was about to like it when i saw that i've already liked this 😂

+Reagan F. :o just smile at the snow.  and stay safe

+Reagan F. Lucky you, it snowed a bit about a week ago but it all melted because it rained a day later :(

i take back my comment my town is in the middle of a snowstorm rn

well there's over a foot of snow here,  you're welcome to come and enjoy it

Is that Patrick

I'm smiling at your profile picture

@Luna Lovegood I love your name. And your profile pic.

@Maya Chemical Swiftie thanks, I really appreciate it

@Dasia Zientek that's awesome!!!!! happy birthday too :D

@Maya Chemical Swiftie good for you, I was lucky because New Years is my b-day and I went out to eat and my grandma got me the sweater from the Dan and Phil shop that she said she saved from Christmas and I was happy cause before Christmas my sister said my grandma didn't get it for me and she knew all of my gifts

WE HAD LIGHT FLURRIES TODAY FOR THE FIRST TIME ALL WINTER (january 1st - it's a new year's miracle!) AND I WAS SO HAPPY

We had a huge storm here and I live in the middle of nowhere and our stupid electric company thinks we're a water well so we still don't have any power.

@Elisabeth McCullough Where I am in Ohio, we literally had not even a slight amount of snow. The only snow we had was that it snowed for one day like a week before Christmas and never snowed again

In Oklahoma there is a lot of snow to smile at.

In Oklahoma there is a lot of snow to smile at.

I live in Ohio and last year we had like a record amount of snow where I live and this year it was like spring on Christmas

I live in Florida we see alligators when we are sitting on are patio. Just a weekly thing.

I know this was made a while ago but still, every time I hear this, I cry a little. Damn, your songs make me so emotional. Love you Dodie. Your songs are all so perfect.


I can't believe you think this is sort of rubbish. this made me cry Dodie. tears of nostalgia, sadness, and happiness. I know Christmas has passed but I really wish I had listened to this before Christmas. oh gosh this made me sob. I can't stop crying. I love your songs. this one took me through a story that touched my nostalgia, my favourite part of me and brought me so many good things. I love how your songs read like stories. I love stories and I love music with all my heart and your music is like a beautiful mixture of the two. you're a magical storyteller.


it's christmas time, which means we're bringing this back.


Dodie, you're such a beautiful human. Your thoughts may get in your way sometimes but the peacefull mood that you give to me is so lovely.


Currently listening to this while sipping hot coco, with a giant jumper on at 1:45 am on Christmas Day.


CAN YOU MAKE A CHRISTMAS ALBUM OR EP CUZ IT WOULD BE BEAUTIFUL


How on earth have I not heard this. I've loved Dodie the better part of 2016 wtf mate. This is freaking beautiful <3


Dodie if you ever make a Christmas album


you and your voice are especially beautiful in this


It's no longer Halloween so now I have an excuse to listen to this song 24-7


Dodie's the reason I'm listening to Christmas music in August 😂❤


This really hits different in December of 2020


its october. halloween hasnt even happened yet. why am i listening to this now (although its the best song ive ever heard)

OnlyTheDankestOfMemes It's july now anf i'm watching this but omg the feelsssss

@FrenchyIsAwesome  YESS NOW ITS ACCEPTABLE TO LISTEN TO THIS

HALLOWEEN HAS HAPPENED ITS CHRISTMAS TIME


I've listened to this every Christmas eve since it came out, it has so much meaning to me (even if you don't like it, it's very special to me) Happy Christmas Dodie 💕


This brings back such good memories! This was the first song I ever heard of Dodie's and I immediately fell in love with her voice. This song is just beautiful. Thanks Dodie


Omg this so beautiful I cried...I haven't loved Christmas in a long time. Its August 2018...I'm binge watching all original songs by her and this is definitely a favorite of mine now. ♡


I started to cry because of this song.... my Grandfather died around Christmas and its never really been the same since.... so hearing this song got me back loving Christmas even though it's Summer right now, I'm still excited for Christmas :3


This is such an amazing song I love you so much! Have you thought about doing a piano tutorial? -Evie


5 and half weeks until Christmas, so excited.... And now I'm crying this song is amazing 😭❤


This feels like it belongs in a musical. Just incredibly gorgeous!! xx

<b>starts writing a musical based on Dodie's original songs</b>

*starts writing a musical based on Dodie's original songs*

I WANT THIS TO HAPPEN. WE NEED TO MAKE IT HAPPEN.

+didsomebodysaykatie IT COULD BE IN A MUSICAL ABOUT SOMEONE TAKING OVER AND BANNING CHRISTMAS AND THE MAIN CHARACTER (who would be modeled after Dodie) IS SINGING THIS TO A GROUP OF PEOPLE TRYING TO GET THEM TO REVOLT AND MAKE A SECRET CHRISTMAS AND THEY BRING CHRISTMAS BACK AND ITS A HAPPY ENDING!!  YAYYYY

I really want to so a Mamma Mia and string multiple songs together to make a story now!!

+didsomebodysaykatie Like the main character realizes they're in love with their best friend but it's too late.

+didsomebodysaykatie Agreed. This definitely sounds like a musical song.

+doddleoddle like I really want to see this musical. It reminds me of Once so much!!


.. but I love it and since 2015 I listen to it every year around Christmas time :) <3


Why did I just find this now it's amazing and I'm in love


It's summer and I'm binge watching your videos and now I want it to be Christmas.


This is now one of my favourite Christmas songs I will be listening to it throughout December this year!


This was amazing Dodie. You literally had me bawling. I miss christmas from when I was a kid :'(


Conan Gray, it still floods in summer here

Oh sorry, forgot you use a random scale.

But the world's highest natural teperature ever mesured is around 55 degrees...

haha. yep. I understand. It's like that always here in Texas.


It's almost August and I'm listening to this for the 100th time and I absolutely love it. I feel like it could be taken in the movie aspect where it's cheesy and the main character lives in a world without Christmas, so they try to bring it back. For me, it's taken the mental health route. It starts out with "December is just being another sad month." It's all grey and not very exciting and there's nothing really changing and everyone is moving doing the same thing, but the person singing realizes something is wrong and tries to become them again. They try to fix themselves, and it may not have been a full blown thing, it may have just been realizing something like Christmas can be something to laugh and feel happy about again. It could be having their family and the bad jokes and board games and smiles and, not only would they be helping themselves, they'd be helping everyone else. The other people would see that spark and that light again, even if only for a split second, even if they knew that it might be gone by the next year, even if they know the tinsel might be covered in mud by tomorrow, they loved and enjoyed it in that moment. And the person singing realizes how good it actually can be.


Dodie always seems to capture exactly how I'm feeling and help me through it.


What most people don't know is this song is actually about global warming


This was... Just beautiful. I was wondering when did the christmas-ish feeling go and why is everything so sad now. Relieving to see that's not only me. I would just hug you and sing with you, or just sit in silence. I love the aura of melancholy and tranquility that is in your every video. You inspire me so much.. Please, have yourself some merry christmas, Dodie.


First Christmas song of the year for me. I love coming back to this song. I still get goose bumps when the chorus starts. So good.


This song needs to be released! It's draining my 4G to keep listening to it on YouTube when I'm out! 🎄🎶


ITS ALMOST CHRISTMAS AND IM WATCHING THIS AGAIN I LOVE

I can't believe I just let this slip from my mind, it's bringing back so many memories yet I have only listened to it once before (when it came out "way back when")


This song is so underrated! I love it so much. I remember hearing it last year and falling in love.


I've somehow never heard this before and it's utterly beautiful Dodie. Thank you for sharing this with us


this might be an odd question but how do you stick the bunting and fairy lights up? blue tack doesn't really work for me and neither does sticky tape. pls help. also love you doddle i'm a relatively new subscriber and i've watched nearly all your videos and love them and your songs and omg i love you <3


I love this 😭👏 it kinda remindes me of a town where there's no christmas and everyone banned it but there's just one girl who remembers the good times she had when it was Christmas so she tells someone about it, like a younger family member, then they end up going on an adventure to help people see the beauty of Christmas again


It's July this song is incredible and for some reason it got stuck in my head so here I am listening it it lol😂😊


I’m 15 years old, The youngest out of my siblings, Christmas is always a tough time for me. With all the tv shows and movies and everything telling you how much fun Christmas is and how you get to see so much family, it’s hard when you don’t. Yes, I have it better than most but it sucks when my friends talk about aunties, uncles, cousins, grandparents, and all that stuff that I don’t have. Most of my Christmases end in disaster. My parents get into fights with my older sister and it all turns horrible. Last year we didn’t see my sister, so it was just my brother and parents, but dad had to work most of the day. It was boring. My best friend was kind enough to come visit me that night with a lovely gift she made for me, and I made her one in return. It was the best Christmas I’ve ever had


Dodie we need an EP or an album or anything NOW THIS IS AMAZING <3 <3


+Ella Caney-Willis I agree, very lovely :)

I love the holidays and this song just made it 10000xs better

+Ella Caney-Willis I do think I am close to tears?I don't know


Listening to your voice is like being hugged by music. I feel like I'm being immersed in a bath of sound.


it's the end of may and i'm getting emotional over a christmas song. yeah, that seems about right.


Dodie you never cease to amaze me. <br>This was beautiful. I absolutely loved it!

Dodie you never cease to amaze me.
This was beautiful. I absolutely loved it!


Well I'm happy you've done a Christmas song but I'm now going to cry, thank u dodie


2017 and this is still one of my favourite Christmas songs. Download won’t work anymore for the music though. Love your music Dodie


This is making me so happy :) Thank you Dodie! This is my favorite song ever, and whenever I'm sad I'll make sure to listen to this  :)


Oh, this is lovely, Dodie! You really capture that magically melancholic mood <3<br>Also, thank you for inspiring me to finally put up a singing video on my own channel... that's something I've been wanting to do for a long time :) still hoping that my song writing skillzz will one day be as good as yours :p

You are the one that brought me in Christmas Hype this year. Thanks. ^^


This has to be in the John Lewis advert next year! Just lovely Dodie ☺


This was gorgeous. It made me cry and feel and nostalgic. I've been walking around numb and this song made me feel. Thank you for sharing your gift with us Dodie. We love you so much <3


Really wish your songs were on Spotify so I could stream them.. You're such a good singer Dodie!


This song is amazing! It explains how even though it's cold and depressing outside, inside is warm and glittery and where we are surrounded by the ones we love and we relive and create memories that will last forever.


Honestly, one of my favourite songs of yours❤❤❤


This was lovely :) I listen  to this song ALL THE TIME because it's so beautiful. Very well done :)))))


I'll definitely play this at Christmas I love it and love you Dodie ❤


I had so many goosebumps listening to this song ! Wow, I really adore it, it is beautiful and sad and hopeful. Great job ! :)


As cheesy as it may be, it made my heart ache and smile all at the same time. Thank you for sharing, as always!!! <3


i’m not crying you are

i always come back to this every year and wow...


I started crying really hard at these lyrics because it reminds me of the memories that me and my family have shared but since we've all grown up and it makes me really sad that we don't do these things anymore and that all of the magical Santa stuff is gone. But I still enjoy lyrics and all of the "cheesy" things about Christmas that you mentioned in this song because it brings me bad to those happy times.<br>Thank you :,)

I get chills every time I watch this. I love the idea behind it, no one's ever thought of it before


"I like it" ?!?! Are you kidding me! This is so beautiful! Gives me goosebumps, the melody and the lyrics and everything! Who cares if it's a little cheesy, I absolutely love it x

+doddleoddle Oh my god!!! Thank you for replying :D made my day!!


I loved this song, it brought a smile to my face and raised my spirit :)


Literally everything Dodie writes resonates so deeply within me.

You truly have a gift with words and music


Dodie, this is wonderful!!! Additionally, the glasses look wonderful as well  <3 Merry Christmas! :D


I've been watching Dodie for about a year now, and I always come back to this song, even though it's a bit hidden amongst  her videos.


This song was SOOO good, I cried and shivered, I now have lots of goosebumps!!!!! Good Job Dodie 😁


This is incredibly beautiful. Good job, Dodie! ❤


one year of this song being out and it still makes me cry


Everything you create is so amazing. PLEASE DON'T EVER STOP WHAT YOU DO! ❤❤❤


Still makes me shiver! 😱😭❤ I love this song dodie 😭 I love you! ❤💕😱

Don't worry. I myself am European and have not seen one bit of snow yet and neither have my European friends from other countries, so we're with you this time. ;)

Also I'm slightly emotional I may be crying


this is one of my favourite original songs by dodie:) i remember the day it was uploaded and now years later i’m back to listening to it non-stop


Absolutely love this song and addicted to singing it ❤


I love this. It's so pretty and honest and thoughtful and I just love it. Your videos always have a special way of cheering me up - thank you:)


This is so incredible I kind of want to cry because there's such a dark undertone in the lyrics and how the music builds near the chorus I'm so amazed I don't know how to formulate a proper review of this song it's beautiful

+Luci Clarke I can kind of see that. Or maybe after humans have destroyed the world and then there is just loads of rubble. And there a very few people left in the world.

I'm looking way to far into this lmao bye

It's almost like this song could be used as an idea of Christmas after the apocalypse and we are living in a dystopian (if that's the right word) society


Oh Dodie your songs can always bring me to tears. So beautiful :)


I actually love this Dodie. It's beautiful and the idea of it is amazing.


I really love this. I feel this so deeply as well as the meaning in your sketch <3


PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do a tutorial! These chords are so incredible!


Is it ok if I sing this at the holiday concert at my school? It's amazing, and I'd love to share it


I sobbed my way through this, such a beautiful song! Feeling nostalgic af but that's okay :')


this made me nostalgic for some reason and now i’m crying. thank you, dodie 😂😭🖤


This song reminds me of the most wonderful time I've ever had with my best friend. We were at this beautiful Christmas festival and there were fairy lights and got chocolate and it was amazing. We eventually just sat down together and just talked about what we want to do when we get older. It was snowing so lightly and beautifully and I would give anything to be back there.


dodie is so soft <3 she makes me so happy. also i find the chorus really captivating. aaaah god i love dodie so much


I really love this song, I'd love to see you perform it live


This is definitely one of my favorite songs of yours so far! Soooo good


How don't you love this?! My new favourite Christmas song ever <3


I really love it! This song left a very nice warm feeling :3


This better be on the Christmas EP I'm waiting for.😂


Dodie you're so beautifully talented. Much love💓


Beautiful and perfect for Christmas Eve, even if there isn't snow where I am :)


OMG this was so great. I am smiling. I am happy.
This is so catchy and i love the chorus.
Ddodie, thank you very much for this song.


Dodie I love this, and I love you! I saw your show in Sydney, Australia and will always love your creativity x


This is gorgeous! Wish I had listened to it before Christmas! At least it makes it last a little longer :)


The perfect thing to listen to right before I go to bed on Christmas Eve ☺🌫


I''m watching this on Christmas eve. It fills me with good feelings :)


i love your voice, your song writing and you inspire me to make music even though im not good. I love this song so much! thank you so much for sharing your songs.


I love this song!
It brings happiness to my day and makes me cry. It seems the older I get, the more Christmas doesn't seem like Christmas and this song sums up how I feel about Christmas. I am always the person who has to be up beat and happy. I have to be strong for my family and friends and something about your voice and songs makes me cry. You are the person I go to when I need to feel happy. It makes me feel like there are things that will come and go but one can never erase the past.
Dodie you have inspired me and I love you! You are so talented and I love how you never give up. You have inspired me to learn to play the guitar and work on my singing. I am starting to write songs and whenever I need a creative flow I listen to your songs.


I love this song so much, it always makes me cry... even in june :)


Who thinks that Doddie needs to come out with an original album? I would totally buy it!


I'm away from home this Christmas and I was feeling like I was missing a lot of that Christmas feeling, this song gave me that warm fuzzy Christmas feeling. Thank you for that Dodie. Merry Christmas!


I love your original songs 😍 you should consider putting them on Spotify ☺😋


this sounds perfect for a musical, oh my goodness it’s so emotional and beautiful THIS IS PERFECT FOR A MUSICAL


Dodie this is so beautiful I cried when reading the lyrics :-) you should be proud


didn't feel in the Christmas spirit until now, soo good. Merry Christmas everyone!!


DODIE Im bawling my eyes out, this is beautiful and i love it ah my friends are being dicks on christmas but this song is so lovely <3 <3


this song was absolutely BEAUTIFUL!!! love you dodie! :3


This is probably one of my favourite songs ever <3


This makes me feel even more Christmasy and happy and omg I love this so much


I'm trying to work this out on piano and it's so hard not that the song hard but working it out by just listening to it is so difficult the chords online are wrong so they no use 😭 I'm hoping to have it by Christmas

@I AGoodWasteOfTime I I posted this on an ask forum to see if anyone could help, and someone said it was "F# B F# C# and chorus E F# E F# E F# G#m"

the incorrect chords were on some ukulele website

I'm trying to do the same! Where did you find the incorrect chords?


"I wrote a song this morning" ... Dodie do you ever stop everythjng you're doin and thinking "damn, I'm hella talented"? ... Not everyone can write a song in just ONE morning... And this song is crazy good, I almost got a tear in my eye...


i've come back to this so many times, such a good song <3


I'm obsessed with this song. You seriously have a God-given gift♥


Imagine if one day this song become this kind of songs that everybody covers in their Christmas albums... 😍✨


Hey Dodie, I hardly ever comment on videos, but for this song I had to. I love it and it gave me some serious goosebumps... and maybe even a tiny bit of teary eyes. Merry Christmas to you and a happy new year tomorrow! :-)


this is sososo pretty! perfect way to put a good mood when everything has settled down on christmas night!!! what chords did you end up using for the song btw?


I hope you have a wonderful christmas, this was such a lovely song :)


Aw Dodie this is so good!!! I love it! Christmas wouldn't be the same without a little cheesiness ;)


So mad I missed it!! So much family time! But it's alright. Beautiful song, Dods, love you and Merry/Happy Christmas!


Dodie, I love it! Sure it's cheesy but so are most christmas songs. I think it's beautiful and I'm really glad you decided to upload it <3


This is honestly my favorite song by you Dodie. I don't care if it's not Christmas. It's so great


this is by far my favourite christmas song right now 😍♡


I'm crying, this is so beautiful. Merry Christmas <3


I'm doing my makeup for the christmas party I'm going to, which is exactly what I was doing when I heard this for the first time last year. I love this song even though it makes me cry. Thank you for a great year, Dodie <3


You NEED to record this. And all your other originals. They are so good even though you think they are bad. People love it and feel stuff. <br>I love this song

I love this song


LOOOOOVEEEEELY! (kinda getting some Jose Vanders vibes from this song too it's nice I like it a lot)

My thoughts exactly, Melanie. I love it!

Melanieeeee hEy I love you you're amazing


I love it dodie! Gave me them good goosebumps <3


I really loved this. I've been avoiding christmas songs for years now and decided this year to actually embrace it, stop being a grinch, and be festive. It's been great.


Has anyone told you how awesome you are today, Dodie?! Merry Christmas! Thanks for all the awesome videos!


Dodie you moved me to tears. This was amazing.... Christmas is usually a weird time for me but this song made me feel better. It made me cry. And it made me smile. So thank you. Thank u for making Christmas time a little easier to face. :,)


THIS SONG MAKES ME SO SAD & HAPPY AT THE SAME TIME IT'S BEAUTIFUL


Doddle you're amazing. This song made me speechless. You gave so much light and hope in it. I love it, can't stop listening to it. Thank you for being for us and recording things like this. Merry Christmas!


This is honestly probably my favorite Christmas song now. Merry Christmas.


(this happened bc Dodie found out Santa wasn't real)

@TheInfamousRhino Don't let camiicolii break your heart for a really bad joke, Santa is 100% real

TheInfamousRhino, I hate to break it to you but he's not. I'm sorry 😕

Santas not real... O_O... haha... this is a joke... right? RIGHT!!?!?!?!?

Eden Gallagher omg I'm dying! Thanks for making me smile on a rather depressing day! It really means a lot to me :).


I like how Dodie goes 'ones you haven't seen in a smile' instead of while, I think that it sounds lovely

+Izzy Tod I actually messed up lol but it kinda works


This was so good this was sO GOOD THIS WAS SO GOOD 😍 how could u possibly say it isn't great?? I loved it so much it was so festive :") u gotta build confidence in what your creating bc all of it really is beautiful 💖


i've had this on repeat for dayS I LOVE IT SO MUCH


Festive Dodie This is singlehandedly one of my favorite videos on youtube


Why did this make me cry I need to stop crying about everything

annual update, I guess: still crying over this

two years later and this is still a mood

That's me. And I know it's a comment from a year ago...it's just so true


When you realise that your still waiting for that perfect Christmas

Will it ever come


It’s Christmas again and I’m back to listen to this beautiful song, just like every year.

ooohhh this has left me all smiley on Christmas even though I'm over 1000 miles from home and away from everyone I love, thank you Dodie :) <3


I'm in love with this song. -
I don't remember the last time a song made me happy and sad at the same time...

I'm in love with this song. *-*
I don't remember the last time a song made me happy and sad at the same time...


This is beautiful! I am so in love with that melody


This song is beautiful, i think the world has needed a truthful Christmas song for a while !! Love it ! Xx


I stumble into this song every once in a while when i'm watching a bunch of dodie videos but this specific time, i teared up a bit


What am I doing with my life? It's 24th of August and I'm in my bed crying over a Christmas song


Could you please do a Christmas album? I love your voice and it just SCREAMS Christmas


😍 this is so beautiful 🎹<br>it makes me feel so warm inside xx

😍 this is so beautiful 🎹
it makes me feel so warm inside xx


Alright, I know this isn't your favorite song, but I've listened to it 8 times now, and I plan on singing it for the rest of the week. Thank you putting it up despite your hesitation! Merry Christmas!! :D


You seriously need to put your music on spotify. I want to listen to this for the rest of my life!!


petition for dodie to release this for next christmas 2020


I love this so much, I had tears in my eyes. The lyrics were so wonderful! Oh I love you so much


wow this hit me so hard, I'm always christmas af like easily the most festively excited out of all my friends and family, but for a few reasons this year just hasn't been the same at all, but I hope I can get it back again, genuinely thanks for this x

a cheesy comment for a cheesy song I guess??


It's June and I'm listening to this everyday💓 It's so wonderful


I loved it! I'm a bit sad that I only stumbled across this now. I spent the whole Christmas season away from home, so it felt like such a cold and lonely time; this would've been the perfect song to bring a smile to my face. It made me smile today though, and I guess that's what really matters. :-)


I really enjoyed this. Thanks Dodie. Hope you have a Merry Xmas and Happy Holidays xxx


song: amazing! you: adorable! MY CHRISTMAS EVE IS COMPLETE!!!


I NEED THE CHORDS FOR THIS. I'm soo in love with this I want to play it even though its not christmas anymore lol.

YAAASS WE NEED THE CHORDS/SHEET MUSIC/TUTORIAL/ANYTHING


I need chords/a tutorial for this so I can cover it every day in December


Back to this absolute beauty of a song , gives me a nice warm happiness in such a weird time


even if this was just a quick one it had everything I've come to love about your songs, a sort of sweet sadness, sentimental


Did this make anyone else feel all warm and fuzzy?


ITS NOVEMBER SO YOU KNOW WHAT IM BRINGING OUT AGAIN

OH MY GOD HAAHAH LOVE THE CHEEKY HARRY POTTER REFERENCE

ive done my waiting
12 MONTHS OF IT

IN OTHER SEASONS


Today it’s Christmas and this is getting me into the festive mood. It’s so beautiful.


Dodies songs are always so lovely the lyrics bring me to tears


please, please do a tutorial of this song?! I love it so much and I need to play it on my piano xx


I just wanted to say that you're seriously one of my biggest inspirations! I'm an aspiring musician, and I've learned two of your songs now. I love the way you make songs, you put so much emotion into every single lyric. Dodie, you're an amazing musician and an amazing person! I hope you see this and smile, because you are able to make me smile every day, no matter how bad I'm feeling. Stay great <3


This is scrumptious once again Dodie, so much so my dad heard me listening to it and wanted me to turn it up louder or even put you up on the tv so we could bask in your talent! Thank you so much for making our Christmas that much warmer 😘😘 Merry Christmas!!


20 August 2016 and I'm listening to this on repeat ALL NIGHT I WANT IT TO BE FALL ALREADY AND I NEED CHRISTMAS


How did I miss this song last year? Good thing it's Christmas time again


This song has so many beautiful moments and perfectly chosen words. I don't know how can only 'like it'. I LOVE IT! If it was possible I'd 'like' it like...5 million times! Wonderfully done! :)


Okay so this song kinda made me cry a little, it’s actually so beautiful 😂❤😩


one second in and I'm already crying tears of beauty I love this


OMG it's officially been a year since this glorious song was posted on this channel and I'm so happy!


HOW CAN YOU NOT 'LOVE' THIS?!?! this made me cry omg its one of my new favorites tbh


How can you not love this song? I'm in tears. This song is beautiful. All your songs are beautiful.


Does anyone know the notes for this? I'd love to learn it!


This is so good and I hope you had a great Christmas because you deserve it:)


This needs to be in a 2016 Christmas advert!!! ❤


I've listened to this all Christmas and today I saw a lot of family I hadn't seen in a while and someone offered me brandy tonight and I literally nearly cried <3


It's May, MAY! And I'm listening to this song😂 love you Dodie ❤


Okay so ik this sounds stupid but recently I’ve been, i guess, mourning my childhood. (I’m 16) And a HUGE part of that has been Christmas. Ik I’m being overdramatic but I’m trying not to cry rn because I miss how I used to feel and how my family used to be. Anyone else?


last year i was severely depressed. i didn't enjoy christmas whatsoever, i ate the bare minimum in the morning and evening and hid up in my room for the rest of it, expectedly my family was super worried about me and it was the worst.

this year i got help, i discovered that people did really care for me and wanted to supply me with their comfort and help. i started to see a counsellor at school, sort my problems and slowly but surely improved. i'm having less panic and anxiety attacks, i'm experiencing less and less depressive episodes and i'm finally happier, i can enjoy christmas again, for real this time.

this song really reminded me of everything, i don't know why, but "how have we missed out on all of these years" and "look how good it can be" (and the whole song really)  just got me sobbing (oops lol), and it reminded me, and made me realise that i am okay, and that everything will be okay. i can be happy and excited with my family again.
thankyou dodie<3

I wish this had more views it's so beautiful!


My favorite Christmas song! a nice change from all the utterly soulless ones out there! Not that I don't like Christmas music, don't get me wrong its great. I just like my Christmas music to have some emotion and heart


I LOVE this! maybe it could be called cheesy to some people but it genuinely made me feel emotions.


You should be so proud of this song ! Love it 😍😍


Yes, I know it's September, but I just found this song, and now I love it! :)


Шарлотта Ивановна


Wonderful as always! Merry Christmas beautiful Dorothy x


This is so pretty, I love it! This day has been so festive for me :D

looking through my old playlist from years ago. it’s March 2020. a message to old me: you’re gonna be ok.


How can you not love this? <br>This is amazing! :)

How can you not love this?
This is amazing! :)


This song made me cry, in a good way. Mostly because my mom had a hard time this Christmas because of ys trying to move states, my uncle coming over, family drama, and she was really sad that it wasn't like the other years that we went out and did things. <br>Loved the song. Wish I could download it to listen on repeat, haha.

it's february but this is the most christmassy i've felt in three years. thank you dodie


Every once in a while I stumble upon a song or a melody that I just want to melt into... Cheesy or not this is definetely one of them. :)


I just watched this shivering from under my covers on Christmas Day as I have been ill for weeks with what the doctors think is glandular fever. I haven't posted any songs on my channel for a month and just watching you Dodie made me feel so much happier and inspired for my own channel in 2016. Today is going to be the crappiest Christmas Day ever for me but I'm going to put on your soothing songs and spend the day in bed with biscuits. Have a great day! Love ya xxx


How can you just think of something like that one morning? It's great!


I would love if you could release this and other christmas covers on spotiy as a christmas album :DDD


I. A m. C r y i n g. <br>Dodie why do you make me have all these feelings, this song is absolutely beautiful just like you x

I. A m. C r y i n g.

six years later and i still love this song


😭🎅🏼 so beautiful. merry christmas dodie!


Idk why but I cry when I listen to this. It is so amazing! I just can't


I don't know how to explain this, but this song smells like campfire, tastes like peppermint candy and it looks like dark chocolate chips and marshmallows in your hot chocolate.


Thank you for posting this regardless you not loving it, because... it's freakin amazing! Truly! It gave me goosebumps haha Everything you do is so inspirational, I hope you know that. This was really lovely. Basically, you always manage to get to me with the things you do, and I guess I felt like I needed to thank you for that :)
A Meeeeeerry Merry Christmas to you and whoever reads this!! xx

I'm sat here at my Christmas table, with my family, drinking tea and eating cake. I listen to this song thinking how I've been Soo blessed with such a beautiful and lovely family

+wiskles 101 This video was all i needed to make me feel christmasieeeee


hi dodie! firstly, I absolutely adore your videos and you as an artist. I have wanted to learn to play the uke since I was around ten,(I'm 13). I just received my first ukulele for christmas!  I just wanted to tell you like many others, you have inspired me to create music. : )


It’s cheesy but GOOD!!! ❤❤❤❤ I Love this songgggg omg


I come back to this song every Christmas and it still gets me!


Thanks for being yourself as much as possible. You make my days better when I need it most


This really hits home for me, depression really puts a damper on Christmas and I've been living with it for a fair few years now, I totally get that feeling of missing how Christmas used to feel like. Great job dodie <3


You made me tear up, wtf Dodie?! <br>So magically perfect

You made me tear up, wtf Dodie?!
So magically perfect


Hello dodie, I was just wondering where you got your top from? Also well done this is a really cute song💕xx


"bad Jokes and brandy" made me so emotional idek why god the lyrics are so perfect and so is your voice.


Ahhh this was really beautiful. (you're also super duper pretty Dodie)


I want to write a Christmas sci-fi movie so I can work this song into it.


This song calms me down so much, thank you for making me happy


I am addicted to your personality and I'm currently binging all of your vids and I'm in love


This is like the best Christmas song I've heard in a long time


JUST CAME HERE TO HEAR DODIE SAY "BONJOUR" AT THE BEGINNING !! MERRY CHRISTMAS DODIE :) LOVE FROM FRANCE 🇫🇷


this is so nice! i'm listening to this on a rainy summer day


Back here, still in love with this song💜💜💜


I think this is my favourite Christmas song- its frickin awesome!


I don't know what cheesiness you're speaking of Dodie. I am actually sobbing at this song. You just broke my heart and put it back together in 4 and a half minutes and it's blowing my mind how much your songwriting has evolved over these years. I love this with my soul, and maybe that makes me cheesy, but that's okay.


Like Dodie what even is your perfect writing skills i LOVE this a whole huge amount oh WELL DONE :D xxxxx


this is so lovely and you look adorable :D merry christmas!!


Would you ever consider rerecording this professionally? I love this song


I know this is completely irrelevant but where did you get your glasses? I love them. Also this song is so amazing, I started crying just in the middle cause I was just thinking of how it didn't feel like Christmas this year


listening to this with my family driving to my grandmas house 🤗🤗


omg how come that every time i hear a new song from you i get goosebumps


Dodie, this gave me goosebumps. How can you not like something so pretty and Christmassy! Happy Christmas! :)


this hits diff in 2020,,,,,,, oh no im crying


Can someone please make a piano tutorial of this song, or tell me which chords/notes dodie's playing? I'd love to learn it but i literally can't find anything on it : (


This song was uploaded on my birthday! I love it!


This song makes me cry idk why it just reminds me of how great Christmas is😂😭


how can you write such a beautiful song in one morning? how does that happen? amazing


you're so beautiful and you write so beautifully and honestly im obsessed


You inspired me :

This winter I am thankful for the snow. After a few years, a white Christmas was outside my window. For some people, a white Christmas is merely in TV shows and movies. Snow is not an association with home; however, snow and home go together just in the way they rhyme, with a slant. A love hate relationship is what they call this and today, white Christmas’ are why I love the snow outside my window.

Thank you.


This makes me all nostalgia-y for Christmas as a child, it's not the same now :( lovely song x


sounds like this could be in a disney christmas movie <3 <3


My mum is looking at me like im crazy bc it isn't even Halloween yet and I'm singing a Christmas song around the house. I can't help it, I love this song so much


i'm almost crying. again. i love you dodie <3


It's April but I don't care, this is such a beautiful song! xx


This was so lovely! You're so talented wtf


So beautiful.. totally didnt cry.. nope.. definitely not ;) .. love you dodie! <3


How could she say she only liked this song? It's wonderful!


Does anyone know the notes or have sheet music? I'd love to play this...


your so amazing thanks for the inspiration every single video! :)


it's that time of year again where i'll be listening to this on repeat for the next month and a half k thanks


that little detail of how the lyrics changed from “remember how good it could be?” to “look how good it can be” i’m sOBBING DODIE I’M <i>SOBBING</i>

that little detail of how the lyrics changed from “remember how good it could be?” to “look how good it can be” i’m sOBBING DODIE I’M _SOBBING_


it's July yet I still listen to this song now and then because it's just so pretty, and amazing. it's not even the Christmas season lol


It's 90 degrees out in the middle of summer and I'm still listening to this because it brings me so much joy. This song is just so heartwarming.


this is so pretty oh my gosh???? i love all your music tbh


i haven't felt christmassy all day and haven't for the past few years either due to a death around this time of year, but your song honestly made me cry (in a good way!) i'm not sure why it just resonated with me, so thank you, you beautiful human being and a very merry christmas xx


Whenever I hear that first note the tears roll in


This really hit me hard Dodie, I have actual tears in my eyes. It might seem cheesy to you but it really means a lot to me. Thank you for writing such a beautiful song and for sharing it with us. You truly are amazing.

annnnnddddd 3 years later it continues to make me cry. You're music, all the way back to the beginning, has always struck a chord with me and I am glad that I have been able to have it in my life. It's gotten me through a lot.

six months later and this still makes me cry it's so relatable for me and thank you so much Dodie for putting it into words


This song makes me think of if someone's all grown up and don't celebrate Christmas like they used to and they come back to old photos and they remember it. This song made my heart happy xxx


I love it, it's literally the most beautiful song I've heard all day


This is the best Christmas song ever! Screw Jingle bells and all I want for Christmas is you. This is the greatest Christmas song I've ever heard and I don't think anything can top it. This needs to be the song that is on repeat during the holidays.


I'm a bit late but I adore this song. I really want to learn it on ukulele (mostly cause I can't play piano 😂)


You don't love it, well I DO DODIE. I DO. this is beautiful


This song will open everyone's eyes cause people need to know how it feels to hear chrismas songs and sorry for my spelling but I sing this everyday cause its a great song


I want to be able to play this really badly cause its so GOOD xx


its not even near Christmas but I'm still in love 💞


I LOVED THIS you're so talented, I love youuuuuuuuu


please post a tutorial for this song!!!! PLEASE love youuu


I get out for summer break in 3 days but who actually cares because I love this so much❤


this is perfect I don't care what you say I LOVE IT


im crying, smiling and feel so sad-
How can this be a thing

''dodie, thats how''


I have listened to allot of your stuff but this song made me sub you do great covers but this is one my new favorite Christmas songs


Can I just mention how completely adorable this little cinnamon roll is in this video (I mean she's always adorable but this song and that outfit and those glasses and her hair and voice and beautiful face is just too much for me).


ahhh you remind me of regina spektor. you're both just great musicians


Far from rubbish. It made me remember. Anything that breaks through this numbness def isn't rubbish.


It's May but this song is too good to not listen to it all year round :))


Delightful! I'd sign her to a record deal in a heartbeat. With Tessa and more. Delightful I say.


watching this again for this year and its making me so emotional holy moly


this is one of my favourites of yours and you don't like it :(( it's lovely! don't be so hard on yourself.


I'm spending Christmas alone this year for the first time ever, and this song is making me cry...


My parents broke up today. Thank you for this song that made me smile for a few minutes.

It says we will "out on a show" in the description box lyrics 😀. Nice song 👌🏻


To whoever may find this, I wish you a merry christmas and a happy holidays! And in about 6 days HAPPY NEW YEAR!


I feel like Christmas has lost its spirit.. Maybe it's just me growing up.. But I don't want to grow up.. Not now :(


love this song, I've been looking for keyboard chords to this but all I found was guitar and it doesn't sound the same..

Lovely profile picture xD that is a great photo of Phil.

Nvm I think I found out the chords these might be wrong but yeah they sound about right! if anyone needs them here ya go!😉:
F# B# D#m C#
(prechorus she plays E and F#)


it’s the day after christmas and i decide that now is the time to binge all of dodie’s xmas vids


this is so lovely i love it so much oh my goodness


Does anyone know the chords? xx<br>Thanks in advance :) x

Does anyone know the chords? xx
Thanks in advance :) x


You beautiful beautiful human.

Hope you have an amazing Christmas!


I love this song so much I know it’s not even Christmas but I still love this song


My cat heard this and he tried to save dodie from the computer. I am greatly entertained and crying because of the song at the same time.


I just put a whole face of of bloody makeup on and then listened to this and i now need a new face. This is such a lovely song thank you.


This is better than Mariah Carey, Justin Bieber, Taylor Swift, and any other artist who has a Christmas album combined. GET DUNKED ON!

+oops my Phan is showing ! We're all undertale trash here

+Perezident14 SANS WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?? I THOUGHT YOU WERE IN THE UNDERGROUND?


I live in Texas, so I can't smile at snow, but I can smile at that song!!! That was super cheesy of me to say but hey, it's Christmas


I absolutely loved this song! Another beautiful song Dodie!!! :)


Trying really hard not to cry right now because I have a cold and I don't want to make it worse but like, this is really good. Thank you Dodie ❤


My Mum comitted suicide last Christmas. This song seems to help alot, thank you Dodie... I can never to put into words how much your videos help me :)

I'm so sorry... It must be horrid when that sort of thing happens... try to have the best christmas you can and remember to always focus on the future because the past is gone and there's nothing you can do about it apart from move on and just try to have fun even though, it must be hard. Once again I'm really sorry.

Lele its ok, thank you. I didnt really expect anyone to see this I just blurted tbh

just me I am so sorry. on Christmas, man that sucks. I am so sorry. (i hope this didn't remind you of it again in a sad way. )


GO RECORD THIS IN A STUDIO NOW i want new christmas songs and i love this


Can you actually release a Christmas ep. because that would literally make my entire existence


This is so lovely! You should I've it! It's so beautiful Xx


The description says it's supposed to be about ten years in the future but I think it describes 2016 perfectly


CAN SOMEONE PLEASE MAKE THIS INTO A LYRIC VIDEO FOR ME.

Undeniably Trash I know but I need a lyric video so I can use this for the school choir

hello!!! just wanted to tell u the lyrics are in the description :))


this song was so beautiful i couldn't help the tears


Idc that it's June, I'm happy and ready to appreciate Christmas this year, this is a blessing


This is the most beautiful thing I have ever heard


IM SO GLAD ITS THIS TIME AGAIN I CAN ENJOY THIS


I wish I could like this a thousand times over.

Lol! I've been watching this video every day for the last 3 weeks I'm trying to watch it everyday for a year!


hehe it’s 2017 and i’m listening to this, please come out with a christmas ep! ((:


She says that it's cheesy but I think that's what makes it so heartwarming


damn. I don't celebrate Christmas, don't have any sentimental memories with it from childhood etc. BUT THIS GOT TO ME SO HARD. wow. Dodie. seriously. how do you even do this.


December 20th 2017, this made me feel so christmassy. thank you


This is a wonderful song and the name is perfect.


merry Christmas everyone, I hope it’s been alright for you.


It‘s October. I just made a christmas playlist. Can‘t it be christmas time already?


I loved dodies hair like this! It’s so cute!<br>It’s always cute tho

I loved dodies hair like this! It’s so cute!
It’s always cute tho


THE CHORUS STARTED OFF SO INCREDIBLY SOFT AND THEN BUILT UP AND IT WAS BEAUTIFUL THEN WENT ALL HUSHED AGAIN IM CRYINH


CAN SOMEONE GIVE ME THE CHORD PROGRESSION FOR THIS?!!!

Suchet M. It's basically Dm, G, Bm, then A for the entire song! I figured it out on guitar tabs, but the chords for the guitar are basically the same for the piano.However I am not a professional piano player in any way. But good luck, Merry Christmas, and take care!


If someone makes a tutorial of this I will be forever greatful T_T


Wow such a wonderful thx again for sharing with us you how much it helps to here your beautiful voice


YALL ITS BEEN 4 YEARS OF ME ASKING PLS WHAT ARE THE PIANO CHORDS


this song will always be my favorite gOD THE T E A R S


not gonna lie, this song touch my heart.


wow it's november 13th time 2 make my christmas playlist x

xeremony ; same but it's august😂 (120 days) (also yes i'm obsessed with christmas and dodie lmao)

xeremony ; that's what I'm doing right now🎄🎆✨🎄


Why does this sound like it was recorded through a metal tube?

It's a lovely song, by the way!!!


You would sound great doing a cover of summertime by My Chemical Romance.


I needed to find this tonight. I have struggled with depression for the majority of my life, and this past year I have done so much better and I have learned what happiness is, but these past few months have been pretty hard. this year my family is in shambles, all of our family traditions have been thrown to the wayside, I put up our Christmas tree By myself last night, my father isn't here to put the Angel on the top of the tree so I kept it packed up from moving. I began to accept it was going to be a horrible christmas, but I'm now going to look how good it can be❤ I love Christmas and it's my last year with my family before I go to college, it will be a good Christmas this year❤ thank you Dodie


I literally detest Christmas but this makes me smile. Which is saying something. Very nice indeed. :-)


"i don't love it but i like it" mY BUTT THIS IS BEAUTIFUL SHHHHHH


can you do a tutorial on how to play this? or just the notes? thanks x


I put the lyrics to guitar with a fingerpicking pattern I know from another song and it sounds really cool. But this songs is amazing.


I really like it I watch it like 10 times a day 😝


I'd kill someone to learn this on piano.


So it's July and I felt Christmasy for some reason so I was listening to Christmas/winter songs starting with the New Year's Eve one you did with Emma. Anyway, I find this one and am like, "omg dodie wrote a Christmas song. This is gonna be so lovely and sweet." And now I'm like crying. Why? Why do you do this to me? XD


I forgot this existed I'm happy I clicked it again. Very good.


"old excitement makes people hAPpy" that bit gave me chills lol


I would go with "Smile at Snow" if I were you ;) Hope Santa brought you everything you wished for x


too bad i live in florida and itS 80 DEGREESSS, though its a very nice lovely song :)

aflyingspacerocket lmao here’s a tip: ypu love in Florida so I’m the winter go to somewhere in Europe


why. is this. SO GOOD. i actually got chills


This song is so sweet. Tis the season my frens.


I can handle how deeply this affects me. Christmas hasn't felt Luke Christmas for a long time.

avery i felt like this for the past 5 years, but this year for some reason i'm very excited for christmas.. maybe because i'm so stressed from school and i want it to be over already? haha, idk. but i hope Christmas starts feeling nice again~

Very true. Christmas more feels like another day where we have decorations and lots of gifts if lucky. and then the 26th of December is just another day like nothing happened

Luke Christmas is my favorite Tim of year.


I managed to convince my choir teacher to let us sing this at the carol concert aha


it's april, and im about to start sobbing over this song, this song also almost made me start sobbing in class a few months ago


I watch this on Christmas in 2017 and somehow, even only at 16, relate.


I seriously cry so much every time I watch this video


IT'S ALMOST DECEMBER GUESS WHAT I'M PLAYING ON LOOP AGAIN


Petition for this to be in next year’s John Lewis advert 💓 (alsooo does anyone know the chords for this song?)


PLEASE SOMEONE DO A PIANO TUTORIAL I CANT FIND NOWHERE


You look really pretty in this video :) You could say you looked like a modern day Belle


HHhHhHh I’ve only just found this now. How?! It’s so beautifully melancholy.


Cookies. You are british Dodie biscuits man you stole our word.

+Catherine Lowe biscuits are more crunchy and cookies are more bendy (and have chocolate chips) at least in my view

Thats weird though that you don't call all of them biscuits,at least to me

Oh :P Sorry about that it was just weird to hear you say "cookies" I assumed cookies were only for america :P

+Catherine Lowe WE STILL HAVE COOKIES<br>they are the chocolate chip kind

+Catherine Lowe WE STILL HAVE COOKIES
they are the chocolate chip kind


This is why love dodie so much.... How far she has come


this made me so nostalgic and a bit sad ahh i miss believing in santa


I'm smiling at rain and flood warnings ffs


It's August 2017. This song made me kinda home sick. I think a good Christmas song needs to have a good amount of cheese. Dayum this song hit home.


This song makes me think of my family at Christmas. Ever since my brother joined the Marines he is never home for Christmas and my family doesn't really care about Christmas anymore. I even decorated the entire house while they were gone last Christmas and when they came home they just looked around and all they said was cool... I just wish they would smile at snow more


Not gonna lie I cried a bit. You say its about ten years in the future when everyone hates christmas but I think it really applies now. So many people only care about the latest and greatest gifts that they are missing the reasons for the season. The little joys in life, the time to celebrate family and friends and the end of another year. All thats being pushed aside for the material things.


also, this sounds quite a bit like her new song When!!!


Dodie never fails to make me cry , ALSO why ITS THE FIRST TIME VIDCON IS IN AUSTRALIA AND DODIE IS GOING AND I CANT GO AND SHE INSPIRED ME SO MUCH UGH


ITS CHRISTMAS TODAY AND I LOVE THIS SONG


This song is not cheesey It's freaking amazing.


dodie this gave me so much happiness you have no idea


This song is very important. Be depressed on Christmas is probably the worst because everyone else is happy and I know I should be happy but I'm not. And I don't know why I'm not. And I just want to go back to a year ago where everything was good and I was so happy on Christmas


It's November 1st it's socially okay for me to be crying at this right?<br>Right?

It's November 1st it's socially okay for me to be crying at this right?
Right?


I watched this to distract myself from the pain of stretching my ears from 20g to 14g (bad idea at least go to 16g) and I'm glad to say it worked


just wanted to say that song really hits home for me. my dad died at christmas a few years ago and Ive been pretty anti-christmas since then, but this song makes me cry every time. its important to remember how good it could be and also to do what you can to make things good again


I'm not sure you are capable of making a song that is bad or cheesy. You just made my day and I know it's been a while since you wrote this but I want to acknowledge that you've been through so much and without knowing me at all, you've made my day a little bit nicer. Thank you, and keep on making wonderful things.


Rubbish? RUBBISH?? I FRIGGIN LOVE IT OMG


the free download doesn't work anymore but i absolutely love this song and need it on my phone :((


2 years later, the day after christmas, i’m in tears.


IM FROWNING

THERES NO SNOW

ITS ACTUALLY PRETTY EFFING HUMID URGHHHH


ngl, as i sang along with you, i started to get emotional and cried a little bit


YOUwrote this song??! I’m honestly shocked cos I didn’t know this since a girl in my school sang this last Christmas and I thought “oh this must be part of those traditional Christmas songs” wow dodie i’m Impressed, I really like this


listening to this with tea after a long day at work on boxing day and damn dodie can i please share a sandwich at the seaside  with you one day? i love this so much


Sometimes I get jealous because she can play piano so much better than I can, but then I remember she is nine years older than me, and I've only been playing for two years.


+GoldenFlame1216 I mean I'm not too sure I don't think I've ever seen an angel poop however I feel like it would be magical ... idk :,D

Do angels poop? Huh, never thought I'd ever type that before...


You are like that girl from new girl.  beautiful song <3


thank god this song had a happy ending. i was about to cry. ;P


How can you not love this?????!!!!?? This should be Christmas number one!!!! Dodie, this is good stuff, it's phenomenal girl. Wow!!


Why is this not on iTunes or on the radio I love it


I'll listen to this half way through June. Even if it is a Christmas song.


Its SEPTEMBER and I'm listening this to this again and remembering how much i miss year 8 :(


you are a amazing song writer how can you come up with a whole song when I cant even come up with a namealso you are a really good singer and you are very pretty


I remember last year we had this school thingy during Christmas time so they asked me to play a Christmasy song on the school piano so I played this (And sung, AAAaAAaA) and now I have to do this every year until I leave school. WHAT HAVE I DONE!! (Also my teacher last year when she heard this was like "Your mum must be so proooouuuuudddd!", and i kinda just laughed because I was gobsmacked.)


Watching it at 1.25x Speed it still sounds super good.


Anyone listening to this on Christmas is 2017?


Watched this five hundred times just to hear you say sweeties


Does anyone know where I can find sheet music for this song?


It's literally July and I can't get over this song, it's just so absolutely lovely and it makes me cry because it just so beautiful and I'd love to learn this but there are NO TUTORIALS AT ALL! If anyone could tell me where I could get a tutorial that would be so amazing :)


I'm in australia this christmas time. Millions of miles away from my home and my lovely little scottish family. I didn't miss them too much but now I'm crying and I miss the cold.


If anyone has keyboard sheets for this, I´m BEGGING y´all doddlers, I´d love to learn this one for christmas


How come you always clap before you start your videos? Just curious :)

It might be to match the audio and video, might just be because she likes clapping. Who knows


its thanksgiving tomorrow, so ya know what? IM SO READY FOR CHRISTMAS

i realize that only americans celebrate thanksgiving tomorrow, i understand


Can this be the new John Lewis advert this year? Like please this would be amazing! It is 2017 and I still love this song and it's my favourite Christmas song!


The Purple Dalek IT'S MY NOVEMBER HAYFEVER

I'm not crying, either. I'm just sweating through my eyes


This is a great original. I think the title is great!


Can someone do a piano tutorial on this? I need to play this!

@Abby Stott Would you like me to try to make a video tutorial on this? I can't promise it though. :)

if you want the exact chords they are F# B C# and E for pre chorus i think (or somewhere)

@The Purple Dalek Its quite alright, you're human. Have fun playing! :)

@Belle Karen Oh, ok, nvm. I retract my previous statement

I literally searched one up just now, and the first one that popped up was correct.

@Belle Karen They're often incorrect, though

Just search up the chords for it, then play those chords on a piano.


This is kinda how I feel this year about Christmas, but not as depressing lol. My family's not really getting into it this year. With the snow falling late, putting up decorations late, and with money and whatever, it doesn't feel the same. I bet it'll be fine, just not the best year. I hope whoever's reading this is having a great Christmas, and if not, I'll be here💖


Really my favorite song is called I Hate You This Christmas by Kate Nash and you should totally check it out but this is lovely :)

Merry Christmas!!!!!!


This sounds like a song in a musical where the protagonist wants people to value Christmas as they remember it lol


I don't celebrate christmas but I could get a feel for the the nostalgia and the joy that comes along with it. Such a lovely song! :)


hoW DID I NOT NOTICE THIS BEFORE WHAT THE HELL


ITS BACK
CHRISTMAS TIME

"Why am I talking like an old lady?"
I love her. Somebody convince her to come to Perth, Australia for me.


it becomes magic again when you have your own babies, or friends have babies 😘


The chorus feels so magical, just like Christmas should be.


Hello, I just wanted to share a bit about Christmas. Christmas is about love, how Jesus was born into the world to save us from our sins. That's why it's called Christmas, we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ :) This is a great song (I love it) 😌 Merry Christmas Dodie, Merry Christmas guys, may you all feel the joy and love this Christmas. YAAAAY! 😊


GUH! Right in the family jewels(heart)...... <br>That was truly cheesy but rightfully sweet.

GUH! Right in the family jewels(heart)......
That was truly cheesy but rightfully sweet.


why i am here it's october (it's not even the riiiight mooonth)

Little Canovas bc Dodie. that's reason enough

Little Canovas me too bud. I'm excited for both Halloween n Christmas so here I am


THIS IS THE MOST ABSOLUTELY SPECTACULAR THING


I think i'm in love with you, For all the right reasons. SENDING LOVE FROM THE STATES <3 MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL.


Could you PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE give me the chords? :)


I want to write a musical around this that would be cool


This is wonderful, Dodie. Also, if you're not totally attached to the title. I really think "Winter Misery" would be a fantastic title. Or it could be "Smile at Snow (Winter Misery)" :D


Wow you look so gorgeous in this video 💜💜💜


The sound of this song embodies Christmas so well I don’t understand it but it makes me cry every time


i was not very christmassy even after unwrapping some presents on christmas eve (? the fuck ?) but after listening to this i can now say i feel very festive. :) thanks dodes, for putting me in the christmassy spirit with your beautiful song and voice.


DODIE + CHRISTMAS! WHAT! I don't need anymore presents under my tree ;)


every time i hear this i tear up so damn much its not fair its so pretty


I learned this on the ukulele in the middle of July. No regrets


it's decided
I'm starting a petition for this to be in the next John Lewis Christmas advert.
Who'll sign?


I nearly cried xD<br>I miss fully celebrating christmas...

I nearly cried xD
I miss fully celebrating christmas...


You should do a cover of a cover, if that makes sense. The song is Fidelity covered by Jasmine Thompson. I think it would suit your voice very well!


it's not even halloween yet and im listening to christmas music<br>i love lovelove love this sONG

it's not even halloween yet and im listening to christmas music
i love lovelove love this sONG


this is so much better than most new Christmas songs coming out! has such a warm feeling to it xx


that's OK, I'll love it for the both of us


please please please make a tutorial on how to play this i would love to know :)


Could you please do a tutorial on how to play this like you did with 6/10?


WHAT DO YOU MEAN ITS "OKAY" THIS IS BRILLIANT!


HOW DO YOU NOT LOVE IT I WANT TO MARRY THIS SONG


I’m applying for college and I’m crying because I fREAKING LOVE CHRISTMAS AND I  FLICKING LOVE DODIE AND I JUST CANT WAIT FOR SNOW aaaahhhh


this is one of my new favorites, i don’t care if it’s october ha


I'm offended that you don't find this beautiful. I'm crying


here i am again,binging dodie christmas music every december


It's October. <br>At least I'm not judged for listening to Christmas songs too much around this time of year.

It's October.
At least I'm not judged for listening to Christmas songs too much around this time of year.


I really really really need Dodie to cover Homewrecker by Marina, but like a quiet more emotion-filled version, less poppy? 100% just because Dodie's speaking voice is so beautiful and calming and desperately want to hear her do the talking bits.


Studying and listening to this masterpiece


Its been 2 years now and Christmas is 23 days from today. Merry Christmas everyone.


chords???? pls guys this song is so beautiful


It’s June and I’m listening to this song 😂


It’s the middle of February and I’m sat here sadly mourning the Christmas season


Why am I watching this in June? ... because it beautiful no matter the time :)


OMG I LIVE THUS SONG SO MUCH IM LISTENING TO IT ON REPEAT WHILST READING YOUR BOOK AND I JUST WANNA CRY


Sorry to bother you but could you do a video showing how to play this on piano or at least what the chords are as I've got a keyboard for Christmas and I'd love to learn some cool stuff. Thanks :)


This is beautiful and it’s now November 27 I am crying


This should be the John Lewis advert for Christmas 2016 💗


it is cheesy but the chorus is so nice, it gives all the fuzzy feels


this reminds me of some bittersweet grinch story. i like it :)


...and again. Guess what: I'm crying. Yayy. I just can't. I can't listen to this song without crying. I'm crying at the end every time.


Love this song- John Lewis advert song 2016 right here!


For Christmas I'm asking for a ukulele so I can learn to play some of ur songs


its october and im crying because i haven't had anything feel like christmas in years
i wrote something because i need an outlet

i waited so long for christmas
siblings asked, "presents?"
i responded, "sure"
parents asked, "no school?"
i replied, "of course"
but truly
that morning
when presents were opened
and people smiled around me
i cared not of my gifts
but of the feeling in my heart;
warm and cozy and so familiar
a feeling shared across lives
a feeling that was long lost and just found and truly magical
a feeling that i had never quite felt before and one that was as familiar as my own skin
the gifts are accepted
the food will be eaten
the memories will be made
but the feeling
will forever be cherished


Obviously this isn't what's it about but it just reminds me of how my family and I used to be so happy around Christmas and everyone was so loving and bubbly and festive and then my parents got divorced and I kept growing up and now Christmas is stressful around money and who get's to see who. Who want's to see the kids this Christmas? what time do we switch who gets to wake up where? I just miss being a loving family and if I could only go back but nobody cheats on anyone. thank you for this Dodie 🖤🖤


Amazingggg~
Your bonjour was so so cute 😍❤❤❤
(I'm French so that's why)


This is basically what it feels like during the holidays when you live somewhere where it never feels like winter. I’m sitting here like “yay! Christmas is coming and it’s gonna be magical and wintery and such” and then I realize that, no, that’s not going to happen. It’ll be a minimum of 50°F and it’ll be another sad green Christmas. It’s just depressing. Some people get seasonal depression from the winter, I get it from the lack of winter. I miss it. It’s like my childhood fucked off and every Christmas is a reminder of it. Christmas is still my favorite time of year and winter has become my favorite season because it’s the only time of year when you can leave your house without melting, but I feel like it’s just not as special. I wish I could have a proper Christmas. I’ve rambled s lot farther than I wanted to. Oops. Sorry.


Still better than Michael Buble haha I loved it Dodie x


beautiful isn’t enough to describe this song


Feel like this needs to be in the next John Lewis advert YES?!


don't mind me, just listening to a Christmas song when it's almost summer


"haha i dont get home sick"

*listens to this song*

*wails like a newborn babe*

"haha i dont get home sick"

**listens to this song**

**wails like a newborn babe**


i rlly love this song. i also love ur hair/glasses/sharp eyeliner/lipstick/whole look thing going on. v cute. ur v cute.


Does anyone know where I can find the chords?


im crying at this because it reminds of one of my friends who I used to FaceTime most evenings and be so close to and make amazing memories together with but now we rarely see each other and we're not as close and we never FaceTime any more and I miss those days being with them so much and the joy of amazing friendship but now I'm just sad cause this song reminds of our friendship and how now they make amazing memories and take so much more joy from other friendships but ughhhh I just miss the old days :(((

EDIT: that friend and me are now being closer and face timing more and meeting up more. At the time I wrote the comment I was feeling jealous of all my friends not just the one mentioned and I feel like I was being too harsh like we just had a long break of not meeting up. So friend (I'm sure u will know who u are) if u see this sorry for writing that comment I just felt jealous and let it overcome me so sorry xxx


Does anyone know the notes for this?? XD


Not sure why I got chills, but I did. So that's that.


Does anyone else get the vibe that dodie seems really sad in this video or is it just me ?


Listening to this song now and remembering how much I cried listening to this song in China a year ago where Christmas isn’t really celebrated


it's november and I'm crying at this what is my life


You know when I think my period is about to start I listen to this and if I’m a sobbing mess by the time it finishes I know it won’t be long


dodie posted a new christmas song today !!


My boyfriend gets jealous cause im always watching dodie vlogs😆


D: I WAS NOT PREPARED FOR ALL THESE FEELS


i love this and your channel and probably you so much it hurts sometimes.


I love your wall, and I love your look, and I love you! 💕 haha


I cried<br>I don't know why Christmas is pretty happy for me

I cried
I don't know why Christmas is pretty happy for me


is it bad that I actually cried during this song ?


you are so real. I love you.<br>and I love this song :)

you are so real. I love you.
and I love this song :)


what is the model of the instrument you are using? :) <3


I wish I could write a song. I feel like I could write a meaningful one if I know how lol :(

thanks, I don't really know what else to say

Personne I used to have trouble with that too, maybe not on such a level, but in such a way that I doubted my intelligence completely. It's like everyone looks at you funny when you open your mouth and you feel so small.

Just never doubt your brilliance, people can speak with more than just words

Danny doodlebug that's not what I'm saying. I literally cannot translate my thoughts to words. I can't write or speak what I'm thinking because my though barely make sense and since I'm awful with words it would be like speaking in a foreign language if I tried

that's not what I mean. I mean I can't actually put my thoughts on paper. I can't even understands my thoughts half of the time. Speaking what I think in a way that makes sense to anyone other than myself is next to impossible. Thank you though

Personne I bet if you'd read your stuff aloud people would be awestruck. Dodie thought that her song 'smile at snow' sucked, but everyone loved it :) Give yourself more credit for trying

Yeah. I like writing (though I'm not good) and I've been wanting to write poems but I'm not good at those either. I'm not good at speaking my thoughts so that they make sense but I really want to. Because they can sometimes be good things to go into a song lol

Personne, I have found that  writing a poem or short story with a chorus and letting the music come after works quite well :) ESPECIALLY if you write it for someone close to you


yes the song is hella cheesy but so are all christmas songs! this song tells a beautiful story. i love it love it love it 💖 merry christmas!!


Your " Bonjour " is almost perfect 😊

A french girl


Tomorow it's 1st December.

I'M READY FOR CHRISTMAS 🎅


you look oh so nice in this video dodie :)


Wow I didn’t know Dodie invented Christmas


My song I wrote this morning

I didn't, you didn't think I was THAT talented did you?


Idk why but I started crying at 1:50... I feel sentimental


Okay. I listened to the song again and I'm crying again. What's wrong with me?


this sounds like something for a musical


Where did you get your glasses from? I love them


i love this!! <3 ... where did you get you top i also love it that too xxx


October 14th 2018, I'm already listening to christmas songs lol


I thought of Dan and Phil, oops. Also, a year ago today, look how far she's come, I'm so proud 😊


Tbh this is not dodies most popular song and even she doesn’t really like it but HOLY shit i love it so much and every few weeks i just remember it exists and suddenly watch it 100 times


I made the mistake of listening to this in the car and now I’m crying infront of my fam whoops MERRY CHRISLER


this is better than any other christmas song I've heard of.

And I'm watching this in July btw


107 days until Christmas. Is it weird that I'm listening to this?


I hope the world never gets like this...if it did, I would bring back Christmas 🎄


U kidding this is so amazing my favourite of yours


WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY
YOU DONT LIKE THE SONG
I ALMOST CRIED
SO
ITS A GOOD SONG DODIE
ITS A GOOD SONG


Im gonna sing this song in my school event


This made me cry. Thank you ghost of dodie christmas past.


It’s okay it’s November 30th tomorrow I can listen to this


It’s socially acceptable to listen to this crying again yay


I'm laughing at the fact that most people are imagining softly falling snowflakes. BUT NO! Meanwhile in Canada, it's always fucking blizzard that almost kills you every time you step outside.


this is SUCH a good song and u find it meh and I cant


What kinda piano does Dodie have? Does anyone know??


Pls record Nd release as an Xmas single some day


My school just had 2 snow days in a row. The school hasn't had a snow day for over a decade since this week.


I know this is an old song but could you fix the download link please? This became my new favourite Christmas song and I wanna download it


I'm really glad that you decided to put this song here and not scrap it because it really makes me happy. Thank you.


This should be the next song for the John Lewis Christmas Ad!!


listening to this after christmas and crying


Is there a place I could buy a recording of this?


It's july but i'm ready for christmas right now


Would I be able to write a fanfic based on this? Probably Dan and Phil based.

Just thought I should ask before I start writing :)


its January and I'm fucking bawling my eyes out at this


This kinda makes me sad because now that I'm older I don't celebrate Christmas and I don't really expect to. So that's kind of how I saw the song.


I came here from Dan and Phil, this is so good!!!!!


oh dodie would you please make a tutorial?


there's no snow here in lisbon uP YOUR GAME DODIE

p.s-adorable song


It's June. Help, I'm balling my eyes out.


ITS LIKE SEPTEMBER AND IM STILL LISTENING


love it. copyright those lyrics before Chris Martin steals them and make it a hit.


I love it and I don't even celebrate Christmas


it's christmas. and im listening to this. fine.


Laughter with loved ones we haven't seen in a smile.


When you start crying at the first bar. What is wrong with me; I'm an emotional wreck

THE BEGINNING SOUNDS LIKE WORDS FAIL MY DEH HEART
