  • Dee Lightfoot from Sydney AustraliaMy Grandson Monty luke has ewings sarcoma (bone cancer) so very very sad. 24 years old he is. my tears just won't stop flowing. Ever so grateful, such a meaningful beautiful tribute. Ever so grateful. JAMES. GRANDEEXX
  • Lonnie Danchik from Dallas, Texas UsaMonsters is not only one of James Blunt's best songs, it is one of the best songs by any artist, ever. The lyrics and music are deeply cathartic and bring out feelings and emotions in a wide variety of people that would make a highly skilled psychiatrist envious. This in only a little more than 4 minutes! Great Job!
  • Skyy Derouge from BarbadosTears filled my eyes while reading it. It’s one of those songs that all generations will never become tired of! It’s ageless!!!
  • Doug from Portland, OrBeautiful song. Omg it had me in tears. With respect.
  • Dave Annett from CaliforniaThe song is more than brilliant. I am a writer of songs, but I will readily confess that I’ve never written anything even close to this perfect ballad. For folks who haven’t cried in many years, I challenge you to hear this song and not shed at least a handful of tears. I never had a father in my life, but I have a good imagination, and this song moved me deeply.
  • Carla from UsSo thankful social media isn’t all bad and his dad found a donor and is doing well. Especially after he was a donor himself!
    It’s a brilliant song because it touches on the relationship between a father and son which can be hard but beautiful too! My brother sent me the video because I know it touched him. Our father is 91 with dementia.
  • Jim Tuell from Lexington, ScBy the way, it is not a "minor key ballad." It is a major key song that has a few minor key chords in it. I know - I play and sing it regularly.
  • Jim Tuell from Lexington, ScYou need to add to this info that the release of the official video (in which his father appears) demonstrated the power of social media. Less than 3 weeks after the release of the video, a donor was found (because of the video) and the father received a kidney transplant, and seems to be doing quite well.
