I don't know how he does it but at every concert video I have seen Gary sings these songs with so much passion it is like he is singing it for the first time before an audience. I can tell he is moved by his lyrics every time he sings a song and in so doing he moves the audience. This man is a true artist. Thank you Gary.
This is arguably one of the most beautiful live performances I've ever seen. My father and I had the privilege of seeing Snow Patrol perform a live acoustic show earlier this year in Brooklyn - it was in a record shop with a venue tucked in the back. Needless to say, they were flawless and we were in total awe of their talent. This also happened to be a meet and greet event and they were equally as wonderful to speak with as they were to witness their music. These guys are special and I hope they continue to make music for a very long time.
I was at that show too! I brought my 11 year old daughter and Nathan gave her his guitar pick after the show because she had sung every word of every song. It was an AMAZING first concert experience for her!
Every Snow Patrol song is a place and a time in someone else's life. These guys may never know the impact they have had on the inner lives of their fans. I adore them deeply.
Believe me .. they know. On stage the emotions, energy and connections are a two way street. You do a good show, all enjoy a wonderful night. You do a great performance , that inner joy shines out, beams all around everyone touched and mesmerised from the performance. These guys can only seem to be able to do the great performance as just another magical show. That is how good these musicians are. Breathtaking ... They feel it - the public feel it at the concert - and here ... we get the privilege to tell our lives with their songs. Thanks Guys!!
I've just found it, and I'm now listening over and over again. It's quite beautifully balanced. It's an underrated art form and whoever did this has achieved something sublime.
Just watched Belfast and it tells the story Gary grew up with. And he was bemused, confused. Have heard him in interviews talk about YES , that it has 2 sides… but not the romance aspect. Rather an anthem song 🎶 about uniting all Irish ☘️, not The Troubles, not the former conflict. Notice SP ends every performance with this song hope. Kudos for keeping history alive.
I know I just added a comment recently, but I just have to say more. This is the most incredible music I have ever heard. This is music from one of the most sensitive mind and heart I can even imagine. The words are the thoughts every one who knows love, but also knows pain. As I said - so very incredible and it has been given to all to keep for all time. Thank you Snow Patrol and Gary LightBody.
Having spent the last few days being carped on about COVID-19 vaccines, accused of being fed Democratic indoctrination, not knowing my own mind. I’m just so happy that I can blow that out of my mind through the music of Gary LightBody and Snow Patrol. I only discovered them on a turn. And what a valuable turn it was. They just give hope and beautiful melodies that I will have forever.
Snow Patrol is the only band that sends chills throughout my whole body when Gary starts singing. Had the privilege of meeting him after their show in Atlanta back in April. What a night.
Their music takes me back to a simpler world. Real music. My pre-teen and teenage years. Very happy to have been able to assist their concert in Atlanta. Beautiful. His voice is raw emotion.
I heard this on the radio and fell in love with Snow Patrol on the spot. They're a completely different band than I thought they were for all these years.
@@saharasante1116 hope your heart is better today 💖 your comment reminded me of a line from new york: If our hearts are never broken and there's no joy in the mending There's so much this hurt can teach us
Astounding sound quality and performance. We too easily forget the tech crew - so its wonderful to note the comments below validating the work of the sound engineer.
I can’t believe this is live! The production values are through the roof! You can hear every note. Beautiful music. Well done Snow Patrol! I think it’s the best I’ve heard live performance ever! i mean ever
This reminds me of their Royal Albert Hall concert all those years ago which i still watch on here, so this has been an absolute treat hearing the new songs plus some of my older favourites reworked - Open your eyes has always been my favourite and this version of it is totally out of this world ♥️ We need an acoustic album now please Gary!
Dark Roman Wine at Albert Hall is one of my favourite videos to watch again and again. Great performance overall here at Porchester, however the Dark Roman Wine rendition is very flat compared to the one at Royal Albert Hall....he sounds all of his 42 years
Padhraic R You maybe call out the only performance which wasn’t up to par. There’s other performances on here which are stellar, and sound mix fantastic. Glass one tenth empty?!? :-)
OMG, WOW, this is so awesome!!! All the musicians are amazing, Gary's voice is so lovely incredible warm, sweet so strong, i love when Gary laughed performing Run, and the songs from the new album, Wildness, Don't Give In, Life On Earth ( It shouldn't be so so hard), Empress, Heal Me, What If This Is All The Love You Ever Get was amazing. Chasing Cars Is my favorite, and Just Say Yes, i love all the words of this song "I can feel your heart beat through my shirt, this is all i ever wanted, it's all i want". Congratulations to all!
Have just stumbled on this and by god, the hairs on the back of your neck stand up. The band look so comfortable in this and the sound quality is superb.
“ just say yes”. With all honesty that beautiful song seems like it could of been written for someone like me, but there are millions of people out there. I been getting that a lot lately. I know most of you don’t comment back to me but please I am begging you to say something anything please
I love Gary so much !!! He's so funny and his voice and all his mates's voices are warm and perfect to hear. Gary is so pationate when he sings. i hope Snow Patrol will come more often to Paris and promote themselves more here.
I haven't seen him perform live but since the first time I heard "Chasing Cars" in 2008, I never stopped listening to his songs. I wish I can watch him perform live here in the Philippines... Great band!
I’ve had their new album on repeat EVERYDAY since going to see them in Birmingham. Was going to go a few more times but my mum was terminally ill. This album has helped me through this time. This acoustic session is so beautiful. Would love to see them in this setting.. ❤️
I also saw them in Birmingham - it was magical in the arena that night. The album has helped me through difficult times recently as well - their music gives you strength doesn't it 💜. There's a rumour they are going to be doing a Reworked Tour 2 - hope so.
First came across this video in late 2019. Revisited it today (late 2021) and it has lost none of it's magic. Wonderful music, amazing performance - timeless 🧡💛💚💙💜
I thought I would miss the percussion but then the strings were added and this concert is truly amazing. I absolutely love this rendition. I wish I could have been there!
Becoming reintroduced to Snow Patrol after years of them being out of the spotlight. Going to see them in April in Upper Darby in Pennsylvania. Can't wait...they are quickly becoming my favorite band again. LOVE Gary!
Discovered this band when 65🙄. What a treasure trove. A band I ❤to watch.
Gary's light hearted fun attitude along with his relaxed confidence comes thru in a sincere charming way. You can tell he loves what he does.
I don't know how he does it but at every concert video I have seen Gary sings these songs with so much passion it is like he is singing it for the first time before an audience. I can tell he is moved by his lyrics every time he sings a song and in so doing he moves the audience. This man is a true artist. Thank you Gary.
He truly touches a nerve or the sentiments of a universal yet unique personal experience

One of Ireland's best
They are amazing mate. I met a girl in 2005 she let me hear them for the first time and I've never stopped listening to them 👍
I was at that show too! I brought my 11 year old daughter and Nathan gave her his guitar pick after the show because she had sung every word of every song. It was an AMAZING first concert experience for her!
@@ptiger7177 that's around the time when I first heard them too. They've been a favorite band of mine for a while.
@@kerrykeating1508 that's fantastic, Kerry! Sounds like you and your daughter has a great time.

Well said.
There have been several of their songs that just happen to 'fit' in my life when I stumbled across them.
True words!😌
Gary seems to get a genuine kick out of hearing the audience sing his music. The huge smile on his face is adorable.
I love Gary ❤️
"Life on Earth" is a stunningly beautiful song!!!
LIFE ON EARTH "IS A STUNNINGLY BEAUTIFUL SONG, THAT'S SO COOL I COULDN'T AGREE WITH YOU ANYMORE THANKS. PEACE AND LOVE TO YOU ALL MY FRIEND'S. 🙏😎✌️
If you want an example of how to mix live sound - this is it - sounds amazing
I've just found it, and I'm now listening over and over again. It's quite beautifully balanced. It's an underrated art form and whoever did this has achieved something sublime.
The best version of Open your eyes. It’s so beautiful. I cried.
The joy in his eyes when the crowd starts singing along...
Run brought me to tears....
Recently lost someone special.
Rest in peace darling boy
What a kind man. Humanity still exists in this beautiful cruel world ❤️

people say underrated but for me among the highest rated band in the planet.
A Band that produces music, not noise. The best in the world. Fantastic.
Is better than Greta Van fleet ?come on man
Just love to look at you gary such a handsome man ❤❤❤❤❤❤

Open your eyes........ just fucking epic!
only one guy can make me cry and this guy is you Gary, thanks , you are beautiful
Snow Patrol is the only band that sends chills throughout my whole body when Gary starts singing. Had the privilege of meeting him after their show in Atlanta back in April. What a night.
I bet
Can't get enough of this, lost count of the number of times I've watched it. The sound is sensational. Open Your Eyes in particular, outstanding.
47:20 that note he sings that's not in the original is so massive to my ears. Beautiful. So beautiful.
The most beautiful smile! My friend is dying and I find their music comforting.
What a brilliant song for the Empress
Surely one of the greatest singer singwriters of the past million years❤😅
Their music takes me back to a simpler world. Real music. My pre-teen and teenage years. Very happy to have been able to assist their concert in Atlanta. Beautiful. His voice is raw emotion.
So much truth in Gary’s lyrics 😇
Some times music makes me cry.. With snowpatrol... Tears stream down my face
David Suttie absolutely yes
Love you gary beautiful voice gary love you ❤😂❤
this is, probably, the best live performance ever by Snow Patrol. Best audio ever!
RUN sounds so heavenly 😍😢❤
Happy birthday gary today 💙 ❤️ 😘 💛
I heard this on the radio and fell in love with Snow Patrol on the spot. They're a completely different band than I thought they were for all these years.
Dark Roman Wine. Great song. Masterful version.
Heal Me does absolutely that. Thanks guys ❤❤❤❤❤
Beautiful music. It always calms my soul. Gary is such a poet. His smile when the audience sings is so poignant.
Snowpatrol and Gary lightbody are good music band indeed.how is the singer Gary lightbody ❤️👄💋❤️🌍🇬🇧🌍✅
Dark Roman Wine is one of the most beautiful songs of any artist! This was sublime
This song cuts my heart in fucken little pieces today
@@saharasante1116 hope your heart is better today 💖 your comment reminded me of a line from new york:

Amazing from beginning to end. At times the audience look stunned by what they’re hearing.
I just watched the grammys 2023 these guys should have been there
Who could give this concert a thumbs down? It was fantastic.

@@west7689 So is the acoustic version of Just say yes! Totally love it!
I was lucky enough to attend two of those nights and also photograph the band on one of them. Absolutely amazing experience.

What a delight. Gary is delicious and I find it so endearing that he can’t remember lyrics. So happy to have them back!
I'm in LOVE! There is no way not to be smiling right now.
Unless you are crying from the beauty of it.
The performance of “Heal Me” is stunning, epic!!!
Listening in rotterdam where I'm on erasmus, Wow! Makes me proud to be a free Irish man.
Would lay in the middle of the snow with you Gary love you so much ❤️ 😘 ♥️ 💕
Opened my eyes... Yes
Unbeliavable how same it sounds on live, he is just the best
Dark Roman Wine: Chilling and wonderful! :)
Gary is quite the showman!! NOT TO MENTION A FANTASTIC SINGER!¡!!
WOW....JUST WOW!!! A night I’ll never forget. Privileged to be there!

A most beautiful Snow Patrol show !
Should be a button for if you have not listened to something for a long time, previously liked it and enjoy it again you can double like it!
Have just stumbled on this and by god, the hairs on the back of your neck stand up. The band look so comfortable in this and the sound quality is superb.
This is my idea of a perfect concert. Just wonderful...and the best song ever, Chasing Cars.❤
Wow! The acoustics are fantastic! Snow Patrol Forever!

What a beautiful and magical performance. The chills that i got when the chorus of Run hits.
Amazing acoustic set. Best I have ever heard. Makes you feel like you are there
The sound in that room is so great.
Wow. They’re such a talented band.
I love Gary so much !!! He's so funny and his voice and all his mates's voices are warm and perfect to hear. Gary is so pationate when he sings. i hope Snow Patrol will come more often to Paris and promote themselves more here.

Jesus that really was somethin special to watch & I'd say a completely unforgettable experience to witness in de flesh. Seriously what a band 🎶👌👌
This would've made a great live DVD/Blu-ray!!
I get the privilege to see this band in April in Nashville. I cannot WAIT!!!
I get to see them in Vancouver in May!
I’ve had their new album on repeat EVERYDAY since going to see them in Birmingham.
Was going to go a few more times but my mum was terminally ill. This album has helped me through this time.

Wow. Awesome performance. Best band ever!
This is just perfect. This should be available digitally or on vinyl/cd
Yes please, I won't be happy until I can play that on my amplifier. It really is extraordinary
Hopefully you have now discovered high end ear pods and can hear this music the way it’s meant to be. “Chasing cars in our heads”!
