Pretenders, The - 2000 Miles Lyrics
He's gone 2000 miles
It's very far
The snow is falling down
Gets colder day by day
I miss you
The children will sing
He'll be back at Christmastime
In these frozen and silent nights
Sometimes in a dream you appear
Outside under the purple sky
Diamonds in the snow sparkle
Our hearts were singing
It felt like Christmastime
Is very far through the snow
I'll think of you
Wherever you go
He's gone 2000 miles
It's very far
The snow is falling down
Gets colder day by day
I miss you
I can hear people singing
It must be Christmastime
I hear people singing
It must be Christmastime

Pretenders, The 2000 Miles Comments
January 1st 2020 anybody ??
Such a beautiful Xmas song.
And the meaning behind it makes even more poignant, what with them losing their bandmate then writing the song about him.
Adore Chrissy Hinde, this is the best Chrimbo song ever in my opinion!
Description; platitnum? Lol
Kind of odd she has a reputation as a hard, hip rocker, then she does a song and accompanying video like this!
My favourite Xmas song..
Was there some competition between her, Vanessa Carlton and the Proclaimers to see who would travel the furthest?
Great song & great video. Merry Christmas 2019.
That Green Screen tho ahhh 80’s man we’re technology was brand new would love to live in the time line seems like a gem and I was born in the 90’s
My absolute favorite Christmas song♥️💚♥️💚But hurts my heart
God bless us, everyone !
Best Christmas Song Ever
One of the most amazing voices of our generation. Her perfect pitch and take no prisoners attitude is an Icon, a tough broad with a heart of gold. Oh how we love her.
An instant classic the minute I heard it. I think of this song every holiday season!
Karen O's unofficial mom.
2019 here, how can anybody not love this song?
It sounds like Johnny Marr on guitar.
Best Christmas song anyone else?
Yea it’s a really beautiful song man.
Great 👍 all round tune to play year round!
Fourth Christmas without my daughter. It doesn't get any easier. Love you always, Holly.
christmas 2019 anyone
Thank YOU !
Wonderful son, dumb video!
Chrissie is so gorgeous
A most BEAUTIFUL Christmas song.
🎼🎵🎶🙏🙋♂️🙂🐈👍
Merry Christmas anyone listing in 2019 . My all time favorite Christmas song . Beats em all . X )
R.I.P. James Honeyman-Scott.
Beautiful song but the video is cheesy
I have never seen the video for this. Thanks for posting!
*Merry Christmas everyone* 🎄
thanks bud
That was me in the polar bear suit!...erm, no it wasn't ( I wish it was!).
I forgot all about this song until watching the movie Cold Pursuit!!
Im flying home to LA from Memphis on Xmas Eve....Nearly 2K miles...lol
Angelic voice. This song reminds me of a snow globe. You know, the kind you shake up and watch settle down. Best Christmas song ever.
I think Chrissie Hynde lives in London and spends most of her time now campaigning on animal rights issues. Either way, she sang the greatest Christmas track ever - I'd walk 2000 miles to hear it.
Faourite xmas song
He's gone two thousand miles
It's very far
The snow is falling down
Gets colder day by day
I miss you...
The children will sing
He'll be back at Christmas time
In these frozen and silent nights
Sometimes in a dream...
You appear...
Outside under the purple sky
Diamonds in the snow
Sparkle...
Our hearts were singing
It felt like Christmas time
Two thousand miles
Is very far through the snow
I'll think of you
Wherever you go...
He's gone two thousand miles
It's very far
The snow is falling down
Gets colder day by day
I miss you Helen...
I can hear people singing
It must be Christmas time
I hear people singing
It must be Christmas time...
4H
It's the weed head Christmas jam.
IT MUST B CHRISTMAS TIME
honey badger don't care at 0:51
Timeless classic. My favourite christmas song ever ❤
It's definitely Christmas time people 2019 Christmas anyone
I be back at Christmas time
Holy fuck! This songs plays every fucking day at the work, it s on radio all day long, please do something to stop this song cause ' we'll gonna go crazy, I hate that voce
When I was a teen I had no idea how hot she is and her voice is unreal love this song
I'll be backed up at Christmas time!
You have to wonder why this doesn't get air time during Christmas season. It is a classic. Love it.
@Shang K Tell me about it, we have a pretty short list of Christmas songs they play on two stations here during December and November.
Always on during the Xmas season in Ireland too.
@Gabriele Bianchi Right, how hard is it to play it here?
Wondering exactly the same thing , : / Its an absolute belted of a song Christmas or anytime .But you hear this track . Sets you up 100% for holiday season : ) Merry Christmas 2019 to you & s Happy New Year
@Don Brucey Bruce Yes Merry Christmas.
Underrated Christmas song imo.
Great song but one of the worst videos ever
Merry Christmas 2019 everyone ! ❤️☃️❄️🍾🎉
Rightbackatchya!!
Merry Christmas
What a fantastic song. Terrible video!!. Cheers for the upload.
I Miss You .. x
I remember women dressed up like that in NYC back in the day collecting donations
A lot of the Salvation Army still does in the uk, as it’s still a proper organised church, my grandparents still wear their full uniforms to services on Christmas and the like.
Love this Christmas song ⛄
At least Wanas got some taste.
I love the Pretenders!
I'm repeating everyone's else's remarks about this video, 2000 Miles is the greatest Christmas song ever !
Wishing Everyone A Merry Magical Chrissie Hynde Christmas !!!! And Too All A Happy New Year ! Peace.
Great song. She has an unbelievable voice. Merry Christmas
🌲❤😊
Geweldige sound x
Gonnabe Miles away from the wife and children this 2019 christmas. Wish you merry Christmas...
I'm still on the fence about this being a Christmas song, but I like it..
And she sings. It must be Christmas time. What else would you like?
@Our travelingzoo it's a Xmas song. Even if they don't make references to Christmas
Fun with Cupcakes It says Christmas time but pop off I guess
Back Bay Man52 Ir says Christmas time but pop off I guess
Fun with Cupcakes very sorry wrong person
My job brought me here 😂😂😂
poignant and beautiful
Am sure I may have commented on this B4? But whatever, it's just The best ever Crimbo song ever! Chrisy,s Vocal,s touch the 💓 heart, and she is beautiful.Such a sad abrupt ending when she appears to freeze.
Its NOT a stupid Christmas song...it was written for a band member who died.!
Somebody died in the band???
Classic Christmas song from my youth, love it!
the fade in of the jangly guitars at the beginning reminds me of radiohead's 'black star'.
Sounds to me like theyre using a chorus effect. Which gives that *jangling* sound you are hearing. Its a very nice guitar effect that creats a reallly nice rich shimmering sound. Personally my favourite effect for music in general
Lovely song,my favourite Christmas song on the planet.
should get more radio play
heartland
Feel like i appreciate this song more this year for some reason 😅👌🏽
Dam she's beautiful
GT 69 really gorgeous here.
Thank you!
I have heard and played this so many times but it’s the first time I’ve seen the video. Thanks for uploading
I never saw the video either
Looking for a girl I use to know back in 1977-8 her name was Debbie and she lived in Blaby Leicestershire.....never new her last name.. her Dad was Colin he was a lorry driver worked for Coates of Leicester and she also had a Brother...... My name his ( Mud I thinks ) Pete from Kettering I use to ride my motorbike over to see her on Sunday afternoon....but I let her down badly and I want to say sorry and ask her if she could forgive me.....so if anyone knows her please let her know Thanks.....👍🇬🇧🤓
Its the best Christmas song ever..!! Classic!!! Alot good memories!!! May Almighty bless everyone.
Im flying home on Christmas eve to see my wife and kids. Cyprus to Scotland just happens to be 2000 miles. Ive been listening to this and choking back sweet tears all day long.
How gorgeous!🥰
Have a great time 🎅🎅👍👍
Happy Christmas to you and yours!
zimbag Aw hope you all have a very merry Christmas 🎄
Hope you made it safe, Merry Christmas
Omg how could I forget about the Pretenders!!??
Brilliant! The complete package as only Chrissy can pull it off.
Thought this was a 90s song because of how it sounds... before its time
December 2019
I wish there was a 1 hour version of this song. Beautiful song 😊
displaced for christmas. shunned by my sister, no other members alive. one year divorced tonight. im glad for all. but i miss so many people.
Best Christmas song ever.
visually speaking, that's probably the second-weirdest music video I've ever seen. (total eclipse of the heart)
This song was released in Europe under the title '3219 kilometres'.
@Big Gus we use miles in Britain too you know
Camillo Conte same
Goodman Máirt, maith an buachaill. Gave me a good laugh here on Christmas morning 😁
Top Christmas banter
"John Elway or Peyton Manning?"
Its amazing how Christmas songs from 20 to 40 years are still so popular and yet how recent christmas songs from the past 10 years have been forgotten, it goes to show that when artist's could sing and wright songs they were really origional.
This song sucks so much cock. So annoying on the radio
My baby jo
I’m listening to this now😄👍
I kno it looks fake but she really does spend her off time collecting for the needy !! No she does !! Really
A song I'd forgotten about for 36 years, then I heard it on the radio the other day. I am constantly singing it. Perfect and evocative.
The song I mean....not my singing.
I feel emotional
BOO HOO
Although it makes reference to Christmas, and can be celebrated as a Christmas song, it is in fact a song for James Honeyman-Scott, the lead guitarist for the Pretenders, who died a year before the song was released.
i heard it today on the radio and immediately thought of my son Nate .... gone 21 years .... I miss him so
Tess Smale I’m sorry for your loss ❤️
Wow. It's a tear jerker, that's for sure.
@Chris Are you trolling? This song is beautiful.
spot on a well picked up unkown FACT
I love this, Chrissie Hynde looks so winsome in the Salvation Army uniform and where the image freezes at the end it’s like a clockwork toy stopping, but sad as well.
Agreed 100%.
winsome
attractive or appealing in a fresh, innocent way.
"a winsome smile"
Thanks for teaching me a new word!
I'ts between you and me right? sure!
Chrissey has such a haunting yet alluring and unique vocals and really beautiful eyes too. Best chrimbo song ever🥰
Never seen the video before.
Chryssie ( a very beautiful, exciting woman. ) looks like crap in this video. Dosen't this ass-hole know how to direct a gottdamned video ???!! Evidently, not.
