"Just A Dream" (Re-imagined) - Christina Grimmie, Sam Tsui, KHS
I can't believe it's been over 10 years since I had the honor of producing this track with Christina and Sam. It's been 5 years since we lost our friend, the incredibly talented Christina Grimmie. Christina's memory lives on in her music and in the hearts of those who had the pleasure to know her.
I hope you enjoy this version of "Just A Dream" I created for the Christina Grimmie Foundation's Concert for a Cause event, honoring the 5 year anniversary. We miss you 💚

Christina is alive in her music and in the memories of everyone who knew her. If you ever met Christina or maybe remember the first time you heard her sing, feel free to leave your memories here 💚
R.I.P
Miss her :( i remember zeldaxlove64 on youtube singing titanium
Like many others,I too heard her for the first time when I was a kid... No kidding,Just a dream is still my favourite song and will always be. Thank you KURT,Thank you SAM,and Thank you our dear angel CHRISTINA for this never dying magical song
I was there from day, and heard the tragic news, when it happened. I still have her songs added to most of my playlists. She was truly gifted and a wonderful person. I hope she is in a better place. R.I.P 10 years tho... How time has passed..
I remember the first cover I watched from her was Unfaithful by Rihanna. So many memories, RIP 💜

in tears
Crying…
This hit me hard
Perfect comment.
💔😭
Christina singing so passionately and Sam singing with a sad note in his voice.. Seeing Sam aged and older and Christina still her young self.. I don't know what hits harder
Feeling the same. Just noticed how much Sam has aged, looking so mature and then seeing Christina how she's just that teenage girl wearing the same stuff we all did back then. That hurts a lot, knowing that she didn't have the chance to grow older like we all did.
@@roerchen same here, that hit me really hard😢😢😢
It's so sad she'll never be able to grow up
Same here. This newer version translate so much different feelings. Very hard to deal with.
I love how he sung this. So emotional 😭😔
Sam looking older, while Christina is forever young, is what made me break down.
@Valiazaner this is literally a video to celebrate the 10 year anniversary of the original cover, while honoring their friend who is no longer here anymore. your comment is totally disrespectful, it's obvious kurt and sam loved christina as a friend and wanted this to be a way to memorialize her.
@Valiazaner you should be ashamed of yourself
@Valiazaner oh no another internet karen Anyways man this cover feels even worse when you think about it being already 10 years since christina died
@@shion1595 it has been 6 years since she passed the original cover is over 10 years old
Omggggg. I'm in tearssssss. 😭😭😭
Seeing Sam and Kurt age, mature, and hone their sound...while Christina is frozen in time with her youthful talent is heartbreaking so never know what she would have become.
The only thing I can take from this is that getting older is a blessing. It’s one she should have had, but I’ll take it with me. Which, after a lifetime of being afraid of aging, is something I’d never thought I’d be at peace with. Thanks for that.
Same, like hearing Sam's voice matured my first thought was, wow she had control in her voice, but what it could've have been....that's powerful. Gone too soon.
Would've given Amy Winehouse a run for her money EASILY.... :( This is why I fucking despise humans.... rotten little goblins honestly, every single light needs to be destroyed in this world it seems.... This still makes me SO ANGRY.... But I look back at Christina with nothing but love in my heart... love and unending sadness.... :( So unfair....
@@KeysOfMyMind Christina was human too. There are still plenty of good people out there, our brains just make it easier to remember the bad than the good.
Forever grateful to have known and gotten to create music with such a special and beautiful person, and incredibly honored to be a part of this. We miss you Christina 💚💚💚
You were blessed to have recorded your memories with her. We all miss her so much! 😩
We all do 😢😭
I can hear the pain in your voice, But know that she is probably in a good place and her amazing music will live on forever love you sam
Sam, your voice make this even saddest
:(😢😢😢
"Just a Dream" is a phrase with a different meaning when you see Sam's expression...
At the end? Yeah, it hits like a freight train.
I cried dude.. seeing his face killed me
He really looks like he was about to cry and misses her so much 😢 R.I.P. Christina
at 3:09 when they’re harmonizing, you can see Sam almost going to a flash back of when they first did this. you can see it it in his facial expressions. She is missed always
I just watched the original video.....i can confirm he did the same exact head movement's and facial expressions that he did all those years ago. He even rezembled his younger self in that split moment ❤
while watching this, you can see the difference between Christina’s expression, Sam’s expression, and Kurt’s sound. For Christina, this is a song cover, with a smile on her face as she enjoys doing the thing she loves the most. While for Sam and Kurt, it’s not just a cover, but a tribute, to a fallen friend.
damn...
this is one of the most beautiful and sadest comments i have read on youtube
True!
When Sam sings the chorus, it almost feels like it has a whole different meaning from before. When he sings "it was only just a dream", to me it feels like he's hoping someone will tell him that what happened was just a dream. But then he says it again, and it's as if someone instead tells him that the hope that "it was only just a dream", is just a dream in itself.
You perfectly summarized the essence of this video, well done!
What breaks me is that a lot has changed in this cover but her part is still the same. I can't stop crying! I really wished it was all just a dream.
Waiting every second to wake up but nothing happens
Yeah, as if time has touched the two and time stopped on Christina.
What happen with her? Any info guys?
@@christianyonathan7727 she was murdered, at one of her concerts in 2016.
Aww don't we all.
My college professor always starts with a question of the day before getting into the lesson. Today he asked us, "If we could bring anyone back from the dead other than a relative who would it be?" My mind instantly went to Christina. I explained to everyone in class just how bright her light shined and how her voice was like that of an angel. Then I told them the tragedy that happened at her last concert. After class, I re-watched some of her covers and was choking up inside. I miss her so much. And when I searched up "Just a Dream" I saw this video and I couldn't help but cry watching it. Thank you so much KHS and Sam Tsui. I needed this. May Christina forever live on in our hearts.
I have these feelings with Avicii. He helped me through my darkest times with his unbelievable talent to create music that transcends time. I think all of us were happy if Christina would have got the opportunity with this cover to live the dream and devastated when we heared that she was killed at her concert. Like with Melanie Thornton (famous for Wonderful Dream) that was at the beginning of her bright career when she died in a plane crash, we always think of what would be and dream of a better future. In all the regret we can be happy about the legacy she left: Her phenomal voice and technique in her music!
It's like she's stuck on time, forever young. I'd never forget that I used to style my hair that way because of her. Discovering her channel made me keep making covers for myself, improving my voice and my knowledge. Wow... Thank you so much, Christina.
It's heart-breaking, how sam is not smiling like he did back in the old recording, and knowing the reason why, makes it even worse.
Yea, this hit me hard.
Sorry i dont know. Could u tell me why?
@@karanyxx1271 Christina Grimmie was shot and killed in one of her concerts back in 2016
I know It made me cry so bad😭😭
For everyone at 3:08 when they are in harmony he does for a split moment 🙂
Where words fail, music speaks.
I have had this phrase tattooed on my ribs since 2016.
Didn't knew Techlead is a music lover.
How you enjoyed Christina's music (as a millionnaire)
At least I got the same taste of music as the millionaire
and i see the millionaire techlead here somehow
The cool thing about singers who start young and continue for decades is that you can hear how their voices mature over time. They learn new technique and they age, and then when they return to their older work it’s kind of a ship of Theseus. It’s awesome to hear it with Sam. It would have been such a privilege to hear that with Christina. But holy heck that voice cuts through time and space. Not every artist can do THAT, ya know? Like, some Left Eye bars come to mind, and idk who else.
Exactly what I was thinking, which is heartbreaking. Imagine hearing it with Christina, keep in mind the bar she set is already high from the original cover. It would've been brilliant. God she was incredible, what a massive loss.
That last expression from Sam before he and Christina fade out is just heart breaking. Such a beatufil cover. Rest easy, Christina. 🖤
To imagine there would be a 10 year reunion cover of this song without her here💔
Yep it's sad
I'm so heartached 😭😢💔
😔💔
Well I believe she sings in heaven now
@@EquesCodicis Yep!! She's more alive now than she ever was (as her father said!!) 💚💚💚💚
What pains me the most is we see Christina here from ten years ago, still young, with no idea what's about to happen, and then we have Kurt and Sam, both older, no smiles, the sad reminiscence of a person who couldn't be here today.
1:23 “Thinking ‘bout me” Christina pointing her finger to the camera really gave me goosebumps. When all of us could only wish that it was “Just a Dream” literally so we could still have her 💔💔
Sam's expressions are no joke. He is heartbroken. Christina singing these lyrics twists my heart. She's dead and it's no dream.
Sam Tsui is 32 years old. And Christina Grimmie is 22 years old forever.
Oof that hits hard. Christina and I were close to the same age. I’m 27 now.
When Christina died I had just turned 19. I'm 24 now.
@@sailspo it’s crazy to think that many years have already passed.
Damn. I was 18 when she died and now I'm older than she was when she died. That's so wild and so unfair 💔 she was too young
@@sailspo same here :(
Im actually grateful that the original footage is still kept
Yeah these are the times where we gotta love the internet
@@TheHmoobkey i think she meant the original footage or the original editing project file of the original video.
This song was such a huge part of my teenage years and I would watch Sam's and Christina's videos on KZhead on repeat
Seeing her forever in youth as Sam has grown older is a beautiful but painful lesson that humans have to deal with when losing someone who meant the world to them this is beautiful
I will never ever get over her death. She was the first KZheadr I ever fell in love with. You guys were all so nice to her. Sam and Kurt thank you for honouring the legacy she left behind ❤️❤️
THIS💜
Same...
Yes.
YES.
Me too😓💔
You can see the pain on Sam’s face as he sung his part. Seeing him look much older, while Christina is forever young... it really puts into perspective that life is really too short. It’s horrible that Christina was murdered. She was so young. She may be gone but she won’t be forgotten. We all have one life to live, let’s make it worth it.
I wouldn’t even say she’s gone, she’s still here in spirit 💚
I'm crying reading your comment..
@@gabralabrador7896 💚
@@gabralabrador7896 Aww there’s no need to cry.
and its been 3 years since this video came out, and 8 years since Christina left us.. :( RIP Christina. It truly hits so hard seeing Sam aged and grown up while Christina is still so young...
It's a weird thing for me. In the original rendition of this song, even before Christina's passing I was always focusing on her. She was so into the music and just living in the moment, and it was infectious. I couldn't look away from her. Now, with this reimagined version, I can't stop looking at Sam. The pain on his face, even though I'll never feel the same level of loss that he and Kurt will, it's something that I think we all relate to and because he's the only one left with us to face the pain together, I gravitate towards him. I can't believe it's been five years already. We miss you, Christina. zeldazlove64 forever
Sam sounds so sorrowful. Kurt's piano also sounds sad. They all made me tear.
They came up close, face to face with that sadness/loss. It comes out in the way they play.. beauty through sadness. They tapped into it
@DANIEL CHUKWUKERE eh
@DANIEL CHUKWUKERE the pianist and the backing synth is playing more notes from the extended minor scale aka the Aeolian Mode.
The fact that Christina’s old recording is used and the lyrics just breaks me, even though it was all so long ago…
I just turned 23. I’m one year older than Christina was. Rest In Peace. You sparked my love for singing.
It' really interesting comparing the energy between this and the original. the piano was much more pronounced in the cover from 12 years ago and you can feel how happy the trio are to record the video. Here, the piano as well as Sam's is softer, almost cautious while Christina's voice is still in the same style as the original. Just something I noticed, going to go get my tissues now :') Rest in peace Christina
GET OUT, I was remembering Christina these days, talking about her with a friend and I was JUST LISTENING to your version of this song from 10 years ago, something made me go and search for it, and now I see this from only 4 days ago... thank you for this, and thank you, Christina, for everything you did through music!
i literally had no reason to find this video or the one from 5 years ago. i literally came from a f211 video to cover nation to kurt seeing her name and going "OH WAIT HER" than I run into this that literally came out days ago...Life man...
I literally remembered this song randomly two days ago for no reason at all. Too think i'd see a new recommendation..
Oh my god same thing literally same thing happened to me
I didn't even realise it had been 5 years. I just suddenly had this feeling yesterday that I wanted to listen to this masterpiece. And today I searched for the video and came here.
@@aureliaavalon same
I still find myself coming back to original cover you made time and time again. Love the rework. There will always be something unbelievably special about this one. ❤️
cant believe THE COLE ROLLAND and i have the same taste!
I'd love to See you Cover it too in tribute to Christina🖤
I can't agree more

"Will you come back? No one knows" My heart: "I will come back, every day every month every year, even if you won't but I will"
You can hear the sadness from Sam's voice and it just breaks me. He misses her just like we do. I've been following him for so many years like I would've wanted to do it with Christina, but I never got the chance to. Listen, Christina, we're with you. If you watch from up there, we'll be looking up to you all the time.
Christina Grimmie was my inspiration. thank you so much for posting this amazing song.
HEY JFLA! Nice to see you here, this made me cry
❤️💚💙

For a moment it looked like Christina was living again. Still be missed. A wonderful, passionate, honest woman.
Broke my heart….
The moment I heard Christina's voice talking, the tears just started pouring down....
🥺
Fr😢
this version really feels like they’re highlighting her vocals and making her shine 🫶🫶 it’s a wonderful tribute
The original song is how I actually found Christina. I fell in love with her voice and followed her after. This reimagine was beautifully done. Also a wonderful memory.
Years pased. 2010, I remember watching this video when I left my hometown, the highland central of Vietnam to Ho Chi Minh city finding opportunities at the age of 18. Christina & Sam you guys are my youth. Rest in peace Christ, we all will always miss you. Sending love from 🇻🇳🇻🇳🇻🇳!
We all miss her so much.... But she'll always be with us at least in our hearts. I'm so happy I'll get to meet her in the clouds. R.I.P Christina, Your legacy will forever be remembered💚
Not many ppl knew about Christina, I'm lucky to meet one of the few We all miss her
@@mebeingme9280 Yeah bro. We all miss her as she is a part of our youth!
việt nam
i was a little kid back then TT i was heartbroken when she passed away
How is it I can miss someone I never met? Years later I still get emotional about the loss of Christina. Her, and Chester Bennington... 😪
I feel the same. I breaks my heart when I think of Christina and Chester. So many other people that I've never met and it breaks me heart that they are no longer here. Maybe were so emotional because of the effect they had on the world.
I love everything about this cover: the sound environment, the reverb, the style, that way that you guys express that the song is not the same, it's more like a way of saying "this shouldn't have happened, we miss you and we want to make your voice inmortal". But the thing I love the most of this video is the fact that you brought her back to life for a little while, it's like if you have said to her "please sing with us one last time". 😭 At least that's what I felt when I saw this video.
@Jediberner8 I'm also late to this comment. I... Absolutely... Love... Your Lie in April. It's also my favorite Anime. I watched 3 times and I cryed the 3 times, I always say this "It's an anime that I would love to watch again for the first time" And I also love your comment, thanks bro.
I remember listening to this version and becoming obsessed with it when it came out, and it’s like a huge trip down memory lane ❤️
Same!
Same
Same! I also feel like this cover is probably one of, if not the, most famous/popular cover ever on KZhead.
Christina had a concert in Poland. I couldn't be on it then. I promised myself that when it was next time, I would definitely be at this concert. There will never be another concert. I don't put things off until later. I don't want to regret more times. Thank you for re-playing this song. I needed it. I wish you a lot of strength and health.
💚💚 Wow, that's hard to hear but yeah, sadly moments like this remind us to cherish the now! 💚
I know this feeling, experienced the same with Linkin Park just weeks before Chester's death. Don't procrastinate, don't let important experiences slip away. Be there when the musician you love is playing, even if you think there will be another time, because you can't be sure. I sadly never even had a chance to see Christina on a concert but I wish I had, she was a beautiful soul and she inspired me so much in the last, I don't even know for sure, 7-8 years? I feel like I knew her. It's a personal loss. Rest in peace Christina❤️💔
I had the exact same experience with Jonghyun from SHINee. One of my biggest regrets was not going to see his solo concerts when I had the chance. 😔 I made a vow to myself that I would never allow myself to regret not going to a concert again. So, to this day, if there is a concert I want to go to, I will try my absolute hardest to be there.
I’m sorry 😞
I did the same thing.. I remember my mom coming downstairs looking me in the eyes and telling me Christina was shot and it doesn't look good. I asked her if she was joking, but then the tears started rolling down her face. I couldn't stay off the phone constantly was just looking for updates. A year before I wanted to go see her but thought I could save the money since I was only 19. Thought there will always be more times I can go see her. 😭 Stay strong Frans... 💚💚 \|/
I just discovered this video and it broke me, a few years ago I listened to the original many times, and well... when I found out what happened I was sad, but I didn't know that you had sung this song again, and see she's again has destroyed me...
I remember the first song I ever heard from Christina was her cover of Titanium and I was absolutely blown away. Can't believe it's been more than five years now that she's gone. When I heard of her death I was actually heartbroken, I was legitimately sad. I didn't know her personally and never met her, but she seemed like a such good soul. I'm personally not religious, but I really hope she's in a better place now. I still like to revisit her old videos just listening to her singing. Such an amazing voice. A shame she was ripped far too early from this life in such a cruel manner. My heart still goes out to her family, friends and everyone who knew her. She may be dead but she lives on in her music. She may be gone but she won't be forgotten. Rest in Peace, Christina.
Five years and I still cry every time I hear her voice. Christina has touched us all. Thank you for this reimagining. It's beautiful. ❤️ Ten years since this originally came out. Wow, time flies.
I can't believe it's been that long, it still feels like yesterday.
She wouldn't want you to be sad. She's in Heaven now. But it's OK to miss her. We all do.
That must have been torture for Sam, singing with an old friend gone again.
For Kurt as well. I can’t imagine putting all this together and editing all the vocals/harmony didn’t hurt.
I know,it's just so heartbreaking 💔💔
You can really see the bittersweetness in Sam's eyes...
Time not only passes to make us old, it also passes to remind us that we were young... and happy
This bring back so much memories.
I see her. In this beautiful re-imagination. Thank you ♡
A verified successful anime YT Channel. You earned my insignificant sub my friend.
the song really took over nightcore and amv community and people wont stop using that same song. Mind if everyone do that again with the Re-Imagined version for old times sake?
Hi Kirito. Are you going to use this song as well? :) I really hope so
Man, at moments like this you realize that everything can be over in the blink of an eye. I remember watching the original for the first time years and years back.
Miss you Christina ❤
This was one of my favorites for a very long time! I miss Christina 😭❤️
Me too 😭
This is still my most favorite KHS masterpiece ever. I miss Grimmie so much.
😭😭😭
@@imaginariumgaming-overwatc4785 I’m with you.. it’s really so good. And this reimagined version just made me cry

Same here.

This is so beautiful and brings back so many memories ❤❤
Same. I miss those days 😢😢😢
Same ..💔
Her voice is magical. All these years I find myself keep coming back and listen to her covers. She's blessed us by giving us a chance of listening to her.
That short clip of Christina saying bye at the end... I can't 😭
Even after five years it still feels really raw about her passing. She was stolen from the world so soon when she had so much more love to share with all of us, and I can only imagine what she could have been doing now if she were still with us. That said, I’m sure she would be proud to see her friends, family, and fans carry on her legacy and spread positivity and change. Happy to see her legacy honored in a thoughtful way.
She's in Heaven now...no sorrow. no pain. Eternal bliss and joy...I believe we will see her again...one day.
I seriously cannot believe she has been gone for almost 8 years. I get so emotional listening/watching this because while everyone else changes and grows she will never be able to.
Wer geliebt wird, kann niemals wirklich sterben.
"Our dead are never dead to us, until we have forgotten them." - George Eliot R.I.P. Christina Grimmie
The lyrics 'now they're gone and you wish you could give them everything' hits hard
the 'bye' she said hits different if u know she became one of the stars now....
We've all lost people we loved. But we don't get to memorialize everyone so beautifully
“Now they’re gone and you’re wishing you could give them everything” “Will you come back? No one knows. I realized it was only just a dream” The lyrics hits different now 😭
Yup because she never came back 😭
:((
yep, i actually sing “will she come back?” every time i sing this song
Holy shit.. seeing her in a new video for this long time is so hard.. Hard to believe what happened till now. Can't forget that... too sad.. She was the best singer the world in my opinion.. strongest, most powerful, sweetest, clearest.. just the best voice.. R.I.P Christina 😭
Yeah I hope she rest in peace, honor, justice, and dignity
@@Amal-ku9xq Hope so too...
Both the original and the re-imagined version had me in tears. Nostalgia. She will not be forgotten. Her voice is part of my childhood's memories. How her voice echoes and filled with warmth and it carries the golden days as it shines through my soul. We will missed you Christina.
This is a perfect cover song for a romantic tragedy. The energy from christina and the tired sorrowful from Kurt. It is so hard to look at and is beautiful at the same time.
Simply the greatest cover on KZhead, made even more beautiful. Thank you Kurt for your continued love of Christina that echoes in the hearts of all her fans.
Just seeing Sam holding back his tears and Christina singing her heart out makes my heart cry 😢 we miss you Christina 🤍🤍🤍
This is so heartbreaking to watch christina is forever young so unfair she should still be here
their 'just a dream' cover was the first video that made me love sam tsui and christina grimmie, and it broke my heart--and still breaks--when i realized that everyone got older except for her. :( i miss her so much.
I am so touched...
ㄢㄢ
好想christina grimmie...
I've always loved this cover and i never knew Christina had passed away. Her voice is beautiful, Sam's voice and Kurt's mix adds so much more to it. This brings back so many memories for me. Not gonna lie, i teared up a little.
Yeah man she was murdered back in 2016 by a fan :( I cried that entire day
@@lulu98769 So preventable too. How the fuck do you let a guy with 2 guns and a knife into a concert venue?

@@KaushikAdhikari what...
I am 20 years old and this month i have lost my grandmother at the age of 82 and when i listen to this song it constantly makes me cry that i lost such a dear person .😭😭😭
I love how the accompaniment and Sam’s vocals are tender while Christina’s vocals remain powerful as ever.
I remember in the early days of KZhead, I was just a child but I found this girl singing and playing her piano, I remember her lady gaga covers the most. We even share the same birthday!! Years later, she came to my country and I watched her concert and her very last song was “Goodbye”. Months later, news of her passing started to stream thru my social media. I didn’t believe it at first, I thought I was one of those fake news sources but it was on way too many news outlets… that really hurt. But like U said, she will live on in her music 😢
I saw the title and I already knew. Rest in Peace Christina Grimm. A beautiful soul gone too soon.
This song and Titanium always break me when I try to sing along. My throat just closes up and I can't do anything but squeak and cry. The original of this is when I first found Christina. She died amidst a terrible year for me where people important to me died. My cat, Kira, and my best friend, Angelo, chief among them. I think Prince died that year too. I don't usually break over celebrities like this but there was something special about her. I think we all felt it. Btw, I'm 53 years old in 2 months so I wasn't super young when I found her and yet she still affected me profoundly, too. She was genuinely talented and kind. I still can't believe she's gone. In a way, I feel like the shooter did violence against all of us and all the people who find her in the future, as well.
i'm so glad you still have her vocal recordings from way back when so that we can hear this beautiful re-imagining thanks a lot you guys, good job
This is one of the covers that inspired me to record on youtube ❤️ love it!
❤️
Czeeeść :D
She is the only artist, out of all the greats that we’ve lost, that I continue to come back to listen to her music. She is eternal. A true angel that walked our Earth. This world didn’t deserve her pure, unadulterated goodness but God is it amazing that we got to witness it.
I totally agree, I come back to Christina’s music on an almost daily basis she was such a talent and listening to her sing reminds me of how tragic it is that she stopped but how privileged we were to be able to listen
Don't worry, she just went with the Grimmie Reaper :v
@@jonahdza why are you commenting on every post you aren’t funny. i feel sorry for u
@@sparklight0964 Feel free to, tho I´m not the one that left with the Grimmie :3
Life sucks sometimes.. I remember when this original cover came out. I was so moved by Sam, Christina and Kurt. I've been a fan of this channel since the early days. This cover was the one that sealed in me as a fan. Skip to some 10 years later I'm kind of feeling down and I look this up, only to find a reimagined version. Its weird to see Sam so grown, changed so much yet Christina is still the same.. It just messes with your head. I mean my brain still cannot comprehend the fact that she is no longer with us. It isn't fair, but then again, life isn't fair. With the war going on now and the pandemic and all the other bad stuff happening in the world right this moment, I'm happy to have a home, a person who I love and who loves me, and I'm very happy I have this video to watch and listen to the beautiful voices of Christina and Sam. I guess what I'm trying to say is, we have to enjoy the little things that make us smile and give us hope to move forward. Christina will be missed, but will always be remembered because she touched our hearts, and in our hearts she is always alive.
Its 2024 but those memories is unforgettable...
can’t imagine the pain behind recording this. rest easy christina
I'm typing through tears again. I've often wondered "what could have been" had the attack never taken place. She was such a fount of positive music. Would she have Grammy awards? Gold and platinum records? Losing any life to gun violence is one to many, but this one still hurts. Our society hasn't learned. This is the first song i heard her sing. I followed her music from then on.
For me as well this is the first song through which found here and now I'm crying as type this...
I found her channel on KZhead when I was going through middle school, and I listened to her song through high school, and i think it was my second year in college when I saw the news. My family was visiting relatives at the time, and I think they were in the same state, so it filled me wish so much worry. Even now, just thinking about it, it just feels numb. Not nothing, but empty. She was something special and a reason I wanted to learn to sing.
id like to think in another world, Christina is alive.
"thank you for listening! bye~" hit me hard.
Whenever I think about her, I get angry because she was the last person to deserve that fate
May I ask what happened to her?
She was attacked by a “fan” with a gun and died at the hospital from her wounds
I actually started crying just hearing her voice again, beautiful re-rendition
This version is just as beautiful as the first one they did but so much sadder. 😢
I'm crying. Christina didn't get to age. Aging is an honor. I hope Christina is peaceful wherever she is. Such a beautiful angel
"Now u ain't around" hit so hard man i miss her so much

Man hearing this and hearing the old cover, you can genuinely hear how insane Sam grew as a singer and how insane Kurt grew with his instrumental talents and production! If only we had Christina back.. I would of loved to hear this cover again with their refined professional voices. It would of been another huge cover release like it was back then.. I am happy to of been alive at the time it was released and to share a timeline with Christina, here's to waiting for the end where we can hear this legendary cover in the skies above.
I have 6 sisters, and i'm the only son. I love all my sisters, and Christina always reminded me of all my sisters combined. I always cry to this song whenever I remember the good times I had with all of them, and know that it could all stop abruptly and will never come back. Everyone, please enjoy the moment with your loved ones the most you can, because when they are gone, their loved ones who knew them will put flowers on their grave, more flowers than the living ones get because regret is stronger than gratitude. I love all my sisters to death. If I died saving my sisters, I completed my goal in life.
