With new album, Sonder, Dermot Kennedy admits he’s never related to a word more. Sonder, “the realization that each random passerby is living a life as vivid and complex as your own,” encapsulates universal themes of love, loss & hope, with the platinum-selling artist evolving into an even more expressive and powerful storyteller
Lyrics:
We used to be giants
When did we stop?
Just say the word and I'll be yours
You know I never forgot
The hope and the hurt
Has lived inside of me
But there's gold in the dirt
I never took the time to see
But I knew of its worth when you walked beside of me
And my hand fit in yours like a bird would find the breeze
We used to be giants
When did we stop?
Just say the word, and I'll be yours
You know I never forgot
We were the song in the silence
But time catches up
Just say the word, and I'll be yours
You know I never forgot
I knew from the start
You'd be the one to set me free
That day in the park, when the hurt would hide from me
Those eyes used to know me, it's been way too long
You are the moon and the stars, and all they gaze upon
Time won't ever move slowly, what you waiting on?
Yeah, what you waiting on?
We used to be giants
When did we stop?
Just say the word, and I'll be yours
You know I never forgot
We were the song in the silence
But time catches up
Just say the word, and I'll be yours
You know I never forgot
Darlin' (I still love you though)
Just say you will (I still love you though)
Will you remember those times? (I still love you though)
That I have held until (I still love you though)
Tonight (I still love you though)
If you say you will (I still love you though)
I'll leave it all behind (I still love you though)
Don't you remember those times? (I still love you though)
We used to be giants
So when did we stop?
Just say the word, and I'll be yours
You know I never forgot
We were the song in the silence
But time catches up
Just say the word, and I'll be yours
You know I never forgot
We used to be giants (I still love you though)
Giants (I still love you though)
Oh, I still love you though
I still love you though

Best line ever!
Dermot, you probably won't reply but my brother passed away on the 16th June and this was his favourite song and we played it at his funeral. P.s my brother was a big fan of your music... Thank you.

I cry😢
Thans for all the love guys it means a lot 😢💖

Whoever is listening to this amazing song in 2021 I wish you all the best and hope you have a bright beautiful future ahead of you and remember; you can achieve the impossible only if you believe it is possible, hope you all stay safe through this pandemic. Never forget to live, love and laugh xxx

That “I still love you though” either in ‘An Evening I will not Forget” or here, still hits the hardest bro.

You made that kid on the toy show tonight happy man. Well done. Also I absolutely love this song and hearing you and him sing it on the Toy Show was really nice. Great Job Dermot.
Your so right
You're 100% right
My doggie of 18 years passed away peacefully in her sleep on Saturday and seeing this on the toy show and listening brought back so many memories! She was my giant! Stay creative. Love from a lad in the West.
can relate to that 😢
Sorry
💙🙏🏻🙏🏻
Feel sorry for your loss
Can relate..
This is why I’m proud to be Irish ☘️
Yes 🇮🇪🇮🇪💖
Blown away listening to this young Irish lad.My son had told me to listen to this lad,the lad has everything in his locker.
SAME
The Irish accent is very soothing, you should be proud to be from where he’s from. His music’s amazing. ❤️ (I’m English)
Is he Irish I'd have never have guessed it lol love he accent when he sings
The visual creativity you decided to go with is absolutely stunning. The words take on a whole other meaning. I’m constantly blown away by each song you do. Ever since my first time hearing you in the streets busking I knew you’d get to where you are now. Your music has helped me through some of the hardest times and best moments of my life. Thank you for you lyrically poetry.

Thank you for the love and support. For me making music is the best way I express my feelings and thoughts. I hope you enjoy it and get one or two lessons from it
@Dermot Kennedy I love you so much and I hope you have a great Christmas xx
here because of the toy show, thanks for making a kids dreams come true, great song too

By far the best moment of the Toy Show
@Dermot Kennedy YUR FAKEEEEEE
@Dermot Kennedy Hi Dermot, i have sent you an email, hope you enjoyed your Rick Roll stupid ass bot
This should have at least like 600M views, like a sound like this is enough to be a hit
Saying i love Dermot's music isn't enough...
Mad love from Botswana, Africa! "Your eyes are the moon and the stars and all that they gaze upon" #lit!

For the small amount of people reading this God Bless and I hope your safe and I hope your suscessful
Ok, let's be real, Dermot Kennedy has NEVER done a live appearance, so I nearly cried when I saw him sing with the fan, and as an Irish guy, I know this, Dermot, your a legend
i saw this on the toy show and i loved it im irish aswell mate
"How many cars do you want to set on fire in your videos?" Dermot: Yes. 🚗🔥

This is like the 3rd car he has set on fire now 🤔
Yessss, he does that quite a lot. I was looking for this comment 😆
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Rachel Johnson 😂😂😂
I was wondering if anyone else would notice this! 😂
Maybe the person he talks about had a huge car crash. Or. That's how he explains tragedy.
This is hands down my favourite song of all time. Somehow, listening to this gives me hope and it really helped me get through those initial weeks after my brother passed away in October.
God bless him❤️🙏🏻🙌🏻
@@olliejones2213 it’s ironic how you have the same name as him. Thank you, it made me smile. And also realise that he looked a bit like an otter himself

@@dermotkennedy1878 you’ve been reported for impersonating a celebrity.
Who's still listening to this since it came out. One of my favourites
I wish I had discovered Dermot Kennedy earlier. He's brilliant.
Me to😍
The best songwriter for a long time! Incredible talent
This song captures the magic of my first time in America and fills my heart with both 🇺🇸 excitement and 🇮🇹 nostalgia ♥!
I’ve never felt so lonely and alone. Yearning for something that will never come. It’s like a heart that breaks infinitely.
i adore how he embraces his accent in his music, many try to hide it when singing bc irish accents aren’t in mainstream music n some see it as an accent that’s not good for singing but this proves all of that wrong i love this!!
Actually accents go when singing
Can barely hear his accent tbh
@@nathanwyatt291101 I can, very slightly
Yes, I love that you can hear his accent
As I'm not a native English speaker, I don't really care about accents.
"......I still love you though". Damn that line hurts. Know that feeling saying that when its over but you still love them.
Ya
I'm in love. This song is so sweet. And the way he surprises that kid on that show is amazing.
Late late show that kids face tho priceless true professional still played on 👏👏
This music video is giving me Salvador Dali vibes
Yes! Thought this too

OMG I can’t get over the fact that he’s Irish! Go for the greens!🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️
I Love this Song ♪♥♪♥♪♥ ♪ ☺
I saw him live earlier this year. He is pure magic! He sounds even better live! There is not a song by him that I do not love.
Saw him last yr... unreal
I adore you. My 18 month old baby adores you. My mother adores you. We are just 3 women who wished to hug you and feel true love which we haven't got from our fathers, partners, granddad. Ireland makes sense coz your songs are giving sense to everything. Thank you Dermot 🙏💖 Jelena, Amelia and Mila
What can I say this guy is so talented! Sings with such feeling and heart. So underrated as an artist. Truly BRILLIANT!!
Hi
I Alfie
Bucket list sing with Dermot Kennedy in Ireland 🥰
This song deserves all the appreciations.
This is the most beautiful song I've ever heard❤❤ yes Dermot another great one
Just need to say....this song is the song of the world. This is it. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
I found this after watching the late late toy show! It is my new favourite song!
Amazing song from a truly great artist. The highest form of ‘’fame’’ will still not match his talent.
So true

Thank uuu!
You’re welcome :)
He is the GOAT 🐐 one of the artist that won’t get the same amount of fame as these trash artist... because he is actually good
@Dermot Kennedy ur fake
His songs deeply touch many people, but for some it's like living their life, congratulations it's spectacular .
Dermot at 00:01 : "We used to be giants" Me : I love this song.
😄that’s so cute
Haha. Pretty much all of his music 🎶
I've listened to Dermot Kennedy when he started doing covers on the street. The pass five years would have been dark for me without this person I'd be Lost! Can't wait to see him live!
On the late late two show you and Michel were my favourite act Michaels reaction was priceless 🥰
Best music 🎶 🎵 ❤️ ever😊
How were 33 people physically able to thumbs down this? Doesn't make sense to me. Dermot, you're a genius. I absolutely love your music!
his voice sounds like the irish sea. and I’m here for it. Never stop, Dermot
Late late show anyone?
toy show? late late show isnt as good as the toy show
@@laurakinsella6404 ye know what i meant
Yeah lol😂
yes bro

I listen to this song every day, it's actually one of my favourite songs right now. Dermot Kennedy is such a good song writer.
I can't be the only one trying to find this song during the Coronation Street and Emmerdale advert.
His music is UNIQUE and one of a kind love it :)
It's official, this song will be played at my funeral.
58 year old Dad of an 18 year bold who brought me here. Very very strong song and a bloody ear worm Well done fellla!
A futuristic version of surrealism with deep, beautiful and impactful lyrics!! Love, love, love this!!! ♥️
Beautiful Song, Beautiful singer
Great that you took time to perform with that kid on the late late toy show great lad!
Best song ever in the world
I love the "i still love you though" line from An Evening I Will Not Forget repeating in the background
Omg what a FREAKIN bop! He’s back! I’ve been waiting for this! Irish legend xx
True
That's so sad your brother's passed and the song so good
The late late show I first seen you, I’ll never forget this episode, the shock and that wee fellas face and that wee smirk from you to him gave me goose bumps 👌🏻
So thankful that you were part of Times Like These, which allowed me to notice your beautiful voice and get completely addicted
It is difficult to love any other song after hearing this. Just amazing beyond words
I listen to this on repeat every time I travel and now when j hear it is transforms me to a new place. Magical song
I love how you can hear his irish accent when he sings! Feel so proud to be Irish ahah

Don’t let Dermot know you "discovered" him 😂 🤫

Gregow C. Wasn’t my idea. On the topic, I can recommend Dermot’s guest appearance on JJ Redicks Basketball podcast from 22 March 2019. He talks about it there 🎧
this song, just kills me in good and bad ways, after the ex of 12 years left and every line fitting, but also just a downright banger, aint no time for sorrow when the world is falling apart.
2000 I made Cork, Ireland my home all the way from the sunny carribean and I have no regrets. The Emerald Isle will forever be my home. Top Talents
My daughter has seen you twice and introduced me to your music three years ago. Was supposed to finally see you in Chicago but alas...the virus! I prefer listening to your songs instead of videos but this one has unbelievable optics!! Thank you so much for giving this “young” grandmother many happy hours listening to your beautiful and soulful music!
I’m another grandma fan of Dermot’s! Got to see him on stage this past February before everything got crazy.
This song is only 2 months old, but somehow it really give me childhood vibes. Love it🤗
Omg so true. Feels like Something good a long time ago.
"I still love you though" sampled in the background ingenious. I actually never heard that part until now and tears came to my eyes.. Wonderful song Dermot
guys brilliant. his passion for his expression and how it infuses his songs with a unique soulful sound drives me cray cray.
I counted the hours for this video to appear! The video and the music is so powerful, so very "Dermoty" 😊. Fantastic sceneries from Ireland. Continue to fall in love with Dermot's music over and over. This song will become the greatest hit of 2020!
CGI Reminds me of like a 2000s music video and im friggin here for it!!! It feels so nostalgic
We still listening to this classic 2024 I hope we all achieve something great this year
I always liked this song when I heard it on radio but when I heard it on the late late toy show I love it even more

How am I just now finding your music? Everything I have listened to so far has been absolutely amazing.
Heard this song for the first time when I was driving home last night. Had to remember the lyric so that I could search this song. Such a worthy song for a long cruising!
