Elbow - One Day Like This (Live at British Summer Time 2017) 

My sisters funeral was on the 30th January 2024 she passed with sepsis on NYE 2023 , bless her, she had drawn up her own funeral plan and this was her chosen song....since that day , Its constantly on my mind, I hear it , I feel the emotional memories but so thankful that Our Carol chose this beautiful, dramatic song. It certainly makes the back of my neck and arms tingle and shiver. Thank you to Elbow for producing such a beautiful song it blows my mind every time I hear it ❤

This song will never got old. It’s a beautiful beautiful song! Who’s with me

We chose this song for my Mum's funeral when she passed in Dec 2018. She loved it so much. I listened to it again today with tears in my eyes as its her birthday .

thank you for all of your beautiful messages....mu hubby died 2 yrs ago and tomorrow is the anniversary of his funeral. He always said when he heard this song it made him cry because he thought of me and how much i meant to him....i loved him since we met in 1986 and still do..miss you Martin always will xxxx

We love this song and sadly my beautiul husband Martin died in April and this was the only song he asked for at his funeral - I had it played as he came into the chapel it felt so right....miss you so much my darling xxxx

Loved this tune already but was on the radio when i got back in my car at the hospital after saying goodbye to my beloved Dad for the final time...bless him !

This song has to be one of the best tunes about these days.... Goosebumps all over

My Nan said she wanted this at her funeral when it came out. Made me tear up a lot. She’s still here now. She’s 97 and dementia has fully kicked in. She knows who I am but if I go to hers with my mum, she recognises us both but asks how long we’ve known each other for. She retreats back to her 20’s and says things like “oh how funny seeing you both here! We must go for dinner together tonight!” All the while she’s in her bed, frail as a dawn. We play this to her now and she faces us with confusion, aggression and denial. I understand that it’s how it goes. Another song is Coldplay fix you. Because when my mum came home (8 years ago when they Deterioration began, this was on the radio. My poor mum sobbed like no sob I’ve ever seen.) Music is beautiful and holds STRONG in the heart and mind.

British Exceptionalism. Don't let them tell you otherwise.

Its the dream if every band/singer to write and release an anthem... This my friends is one of the top five ever written. I get goosebumps every time I hear it

One of my all time favourite songs. If ever I feel a bit low this is the song I listen to.

This needs to be re-released as it would smash the tunes these days

we need this back - our country needs this love back.......

This is how songs should be - meaningful, melodic and flowing - and original !

The pain you feel today is the strength you feel tomorrow.

The way the audience does the harmony at the end is breath-taking.

This guys voice fills my heart with joy and my eyes with tears...

This is an anthem of our times. Incredible

Man, I need a concert like this soon. Time to throw those curtains wide and sing and celebrate together again.

"Kiss me like a final meal" is quite possibly the greatest lyric ever. Just despairingly beautiful.

Get this in your head, it's there for the day.

love this song but always feel very emotional from it, can't explain it easily but it just tears me up 😢😢

Wow! We were there, it was such a hot day, the music was absolutely out of this world. The biggest crowd ever!! Can’t wait to go back when the world returns to ‘normal’ 🤗🤗🤗

For the last week this brilliant song has been played on Irish radio stations and it never gets old and it never will, I do think it will always stand the test of time just like the Foo fighters song Times Like These.

Coming up on my 10th anniversary since this was played at my wedding ,few highs, few lows, birth of a beautiful daughter inbetween..this will always fill me with joy

“So throw those curtains wide” is a very powerful lyric. It can bring you out of a bad place and start to enjoy life again.

My daughter Stefanie walked down the aisle to this. I balled my head off xxx 💜💜💜

The violins give a special touch to this song. Fantastic!

one of the greatest tracks ever made - thank you elbow

Seen elbow live last month and can honestly say I bawled my eyes out when they played this. The audience participation was exactly the same as this. Beautiful

Guy Garveys voice sounds so close to the studio version. Rare talent!

What a day that was. Tears For Fears, Elbow and then The Killers. Marvellous, marvellous stuff

This made me cry just now. The beautiful freedom of everyone together ❤♥💖

My 5 year old grandsons favourite song, so glad my son has a great taste in music

This is proper music. Proper words sung by the brilliant Guy Garvey with the even more brilliant Elbow.

The ending to this, and the ending to ‘Hey Jude’ (The Beatles} can last for hours, and rightly so! Absolutely belter of a song that will never grow old.

Great that this was part of the platinum Jubilee

Still loving this every single day

I cry when all people start to sing. Beautiful song. There is peace in this song.

I can't believe I forgot this song for 3 years until I recognised it in a BGT comedian compliation in 2018 when I was 13 and it took me 4 years to finally find it after watching the Platinum Jubilee concert on BBC iPlayer and this song is amazing and I get goosebumps listening to it

This song makes me feel 10 feet tall!!! 🥺❤️ makes me float away to my safe place where no one can disturb me for that few minutes x

Brilliant. Could listen to it all day

The best song ever

Absolutely brilliant won't get sick of hearing this . Classic .

If you get the chance to see Elbow live , you have to do it, you will not be disappointed!

wow! just wish covid-19 would disappera so we can relive moment like this

Just an awesome song.........this is arguably the best version.......pure brilliance.

Best live performers I’ve seen.

One of the most emotional songs ever written and performed by such a talented bunch of amazing people.

If I had to choose a song, happy place this would be the one xx

Long ago, a man named Freddie gave an awesome singing lesson to a large crowd. Here, a man named Guy does the same ...

Just love around the 4 minute mark how the guitarist kicks in with his repeating solo. Just an incredible performance of such an uplifting song. Throw those curtains wide...

Wish I'd been in that crowd. Awesome band, awesome song, awesome man.

Love this song . Whenever it's played on radio 2 they always cut the end short , which we all know is the bit we love the best 😁😁

The most positive song in the world

He is note perfect... what a performance....the audience singing the harmonies at the end was amazing!

Happy and sad tears every time I listen to this. Absolutely Brilliant 👏

Every time I hear this it makes me appreciate what I have and pushes away all worries! Goosebumps!

Sublime. This is exactly what live music should be.

Greetings from Ireland - never tire of hearing this beautiful song. x

GOOSEBUMPS!!!!!!! FABULOUS!!!!!!! Best song EVER....

That man loves his music and I am glad.

What a song , totally gets you right there

A jewel of a song

The ultimate feel good tune

Never realised that it was Elbow. Respect given where deserved. HNY anyone watching. I am with memories of loved ones, but not tears *AT ALL*. They had their wonderful time (led to me and my sis), our time now. Yma o Hyd

How amazing it must be to have others sing your songs with such happiness!

Will be singing and crying along to this song, when I see Elbow live for the first time!

I struggle every day. I listen to songs about lost loves, family etc... But this song is MINE. Love it ❤

I can't get a new Sky box as i don't want to lose my recording of this whole concert. Oh and that violinist, Holy Cow I Love Your Eyes.

Those violinists are mesmerizing

This song inspires me to be a better person. Truly wonderful human camaraderie and unity!

I'm not a huge Elbow fan.. But this song is a truly massive achievement, It's totally perfect. Well done guys!!!

My song when I walked down the Isle 23/04/21 with 13 guests due to covid restrictions, and last night we finally had a party where it was our 1st dance song 🥰

Holy cow, i love your eyes. Just this line alone made me cry. Beautiful.

This saved my life, its looking like a beautiful day.

Chill out and appreciate, artistic genius

It's a fantastic funeral song for Georg, my friend. Lots of people are following you on this, my friend xx 🙏

Always makes me smile 😃

The power of song! One chap makes 65 thousand his own! EPIC

Thank you mr Garvey.

I have just recently discovered this song. What a song, it's got the full package, sound, lyrics are absolutely brill👍

The most emotional gorgeous song I have ever listened too. It never ever fails to make me shed a tear

We long for life to be like this once more....

My eyes leak when i hear this tune. Pure genious

This was a great day

Wonderful. Everything a song should be. Brings different emotions out me.

This live version is better than the original studio recording.

One day a year like this will see me right. I'm glad to say I've had days like that and boy i needed them to make up for so many others

Kiss me when my lips are thin is another beautiful line from the song. It is such a fabulous song lyrically magnificent and then of course there’s the music!

amazing song, never get tired of listening to it true talent

One day like this....we will be grateful for the small things...hugs.. socialising...music 🙏💕🌏

WOW! beautiful

Ich habe diesen Song zum ersten Mal am 7. Mai 2023 im Radio gehört und seither liebe ich ihn. Ich bekomme Gänsehaut nur schon von der Hintergrund-Musik. Wenn dann die Zuschauer mitsingen, nur noch WOWH!

This song was made for the stadiums. What an Anthem....My Elbow bows before thee !

"Cause holy cow, I love your eyes,and only now I see the light" 😎😎😎😎

Beautiful.

On holiday right now the kids are sleeping and im listening to this amazing song for the second time tonight definitely throwing those curtains wide love this

I don’t know how l ever missed hearing this song before the Platinum Jubilee concert. Now l can’t get enough of it. It is a perfect song.

What a beautiful voice. Must be one of my favourites of all time
