Falling Slowly - Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova (Once) 

2024, anyone else? 🙌🏻✋🏻

To think that she was 19 and he 37 when the movie was filmed is incredible, she looks older in the movie cause she is acting so mature and have a soul of an older person, that's a thing you can listen in her songs. Great music and movie, sad ending though. Too watch two persons, made for each other, separate apart by fear and the difficulties of life, is heartbreaking

One day I was looking through baby pictures when I realized that there were none of me. In fact there’s a whole book of cute photos of my big sister. I started to feel super down and it soon got worse. My sister and dad have a special song that they play a lot in the car, over and over again...it’s called Chasing Cars. Of course I love that song, but I just wished I had something like that with dad. Then, one day I asked my father if we had a “special song” or something like that, his response was something simple like, “I’m not sure” or “maybe...” Fast forward a couple of weeks, my dad comes rushing towards me yelling for me to listen to this song. He said when I was a baby he’d hold me up and dance with me to Falling Slowly...💕 I’m still a little depressed I guess, but for my birthday I got the best gift I could ever ask for. A baby book! Filled with amazing pictures downloaded from the computer of my tooth-less smile... I know nobody will read this, but if you do have a great day, my friend ❤️

It's 2023 and I still love this song! 😊

"You have suffered enough and warred with yourself; it's time that you won" That line kind of hits me deep. All my life I've felt I've suffered with loneliness, mild depression and just generally feeling like I'm not nor ever have been good enough. Maybe one day, I'll "win".

이 노래 들으면 왠지 모르게 눈물남.... 막 이뤄질 수 없는 사랑인걸 알고 서로를 다독여주는 느낌. 가망 없는걸 알지만 또 한편으로는 다음을 기대하고 기약하는 것 같기도

ตามจากThe Voice Thailand ด้วยคน อิอิ..ชอบเพลงแนวๆนี้อยู่แล้ว..น้องแว่นร้องได้เสียงไพเราะสุดๆๆๆ ชอบเสียงแบบนี้ มากกว่าน้องเบียร์ เน็ตไอดอล อีกอะ..แต่ก็ร้องยากทั้งคู่..เก่ง เยี่ยมๆ พอกัน😍

The fact that its been 12 years since this movie was released and its still a hidden gem to most is just criminal. One of the best movies ever made. There is no finer film that utilises song to express the broken souls and unspoken affection of two individuals. To anyone who's stumbled upon this by accident do yourself a favour and lose yourself in this film. Or if you've got enough time watch this back to back along with Lost In Translation and Before Sunset. It'll change your life.

Everything about this song breaks my heart. The lyrics, the music, the voices, the harmony. Its PERFECT.

i love when a song can just transport you back to a certain time in your life because suddenly you feel exactly the same as you did back then

if A Star Is Born got so much recognition, this should've had even more

Johnny and Mark brings me here . The song is pure gold 🥺💚

카페에서 직원분이랑 단둘이 있을때 음료 기다리다 이 노래 나와서 나도 모르게 흥얼거리는데 직원분도 흥얼거리던 기억이 그 순간만큼은 참 따듯한 기분이

When I feel depressed I come here, sadly I've been here more than what I would have wanted, hopefully one day I can come to this video and smile and think about the times when it was one of the only songs that calmed me down

Am I the only one here because I decided to listen once again this song, because I miss this film?

2021 listeners 🤟🏻🤟🏻

OMG THEYRE WALKING ON A GUITAR

The best part about this song is, it sounds real, raw, and yet innocent at the same time

i watched this movie yesterday, I was in tears, it was so raw and real and pure and beautiful

I have no idea why his has not been classified as one of the greatest love songs ever. I guess if the right people don't promote you, things just don't happen. This is an absolutey beautiful song and adding any other adjective to define it other than beautiful does it injustice. It is simply, beautiful.

This song makes me cry from the first note, beautifully written and sung.

One of the most moving songs of all time. Beautiful.

This song is priceless

I halfheartedly watched this movie back in 2013..and now it is 2022.. Two nights ago i watched the movie without double speeds and skips .. The dynamics of the story .. is simply amazing .. The guy who stayed with them while recording .. i so love how he smiled while he listened to their songs ..he even called them " bunch of oddballs" ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I don`t know you But I want you All the more for that Words fall through me and always fool me And I can`t react games that never amount To more than they`re meant Will play themselves out Take this sinking boat and point it home We`ve still got time Raise your hopeful voice you have a choice You`ve made it now Falling slowly, eyes that know me And I can`t go back Moods that take me and erase me And I`m painted black You have suffered enough And warred with yourself It`s time that you won Take this sinking boat and point it home We`ve still got time Raise your hopeful voice you have a choice You`ve made it now Falling slowly sing your melody I`ll sing along I paid the cost too late Now you're gone

I'm here because I sang this when I was 10 and I forgot about that till now, this song has still got it

I just watched this gem and expected an average movie but my god was I blown away. Such an incredibly bittersweet movie that had me hooked from the first scene, and each song was so incredibly put together. It's one of those rare movies I consider as close to perfect as it gets to the point I'd give it 10/10

I closed my eyes on this song and I've never been happier (: this used to be my favorite song. last year on Easter,I went to walmart with my dad and was listening to this song. I wanted to wake his family and him up for a breakfast surprise. I played this song over and over again when I was with him because it was my favorite song. He is no longer here with me now. :'( this is the first time I listened to this song since last Easter. I played it, closed my eyes, and thought of him. It was the happiest I've ever been since then.it brings me back to that day.

So glad Mike was actually alive this whole time. Happy they sang this together again!

What a great show. First season was all comic relief but its really developed. I love how they balance comedy with the severity and seriousness of the situation.

This song has won an Oscar for best original song❤

my brother played an instrumental version for my grandfather's funeral...I didn't know he was going to and when I recognized it...it hit hard. RIP Grandpa.

You might wanna sing it along so here's the lyrics 😀 I don't know you But I want you All the more for that Words fall through me And always fool me And I can't react And games that never amount To more than they're meant Will play themselves out Take this sinking boat and point it home We've still got time Raise your hopeful voice, you have a choice You'll make it now Falling slowly, eyes that know me And I can't go back And moods that take me and erase me And I'm painted black You have suffered enough And warred with yourself It's time that you won Take this sinking boat and point it home We've still got time Raise your hopeful voice, you have a choice You've made it now Falling slowly, sing your melody I'll sing it loud I paid the cost too late Now you're gone

This song is very important to me. I've been keeping a lot of emotions inside me for someone special to me for almost 9 years. He was the one who introduced me to this song and to the movie. I learned it on the piano for him 8 and a half years ago. I'm still afraid to tell him how I really feel about him. B, if you're reading this, I was deeply in love with you once and I think that I still have feelings for you. I miss you and it pains me that you are so far away and that you're in love with someone else. You're smart and funny with a great sense of humour and a dedication and passion for things you love that I have never seen in anybody else. I'm deeply sorry that I ruined what we had back then, even though to an extend it was out of my hands. I wish I could go back in time to say to you all the that I wanted to, that I like you and I love you, and to stop myself from hurting you...

This song always stirs my heart to hear it. It's guided me through the tougher times in my life, and still holds strong in these better days as of late. It's just absolutely beautiful.

I remember hearing this song in London in 2014. I've heard this song dozens of times before, but it came as a totally different song as I walked through the streets in London... It was a perfect blend of London street vibe and this song. That's when I thought...In the end, music is not only heard by the ears, but that the situation and space around me should be the same.

It is one of my favorite movies and also my favorite song. The sound of guitar playing is so good, and it feels so good between autumn and winter.

Why am I about to cry? Maybe I think too much when I listen to this song. I remember when I saw the film in school. I miss these times a bit...

Sehun brought me here. This song is old but precious. It's a good song, love it :)

So happy I found this song. I’ve known this tune since I was a small child and I’ve hummed it all throughout my life. I don’t ever remember listening to it when I was small but I’m 18 now and this song speaks to my soul the most more than any song I’ve listened to and I couldn’t be more happy :)

Hope. This song feels like hope.

#TheLastManOnEarth Thanks Mike and Phil, I will be listening heavily from now on.

Glen was in the game along time , but by god it payed off only through hard effort and i wish him all the best for leaving us wit an unforgetable tune

I come from the Voice in Thailand (อิมเมจ). She makes me want to see this movie and listen a music again.

I heard this song first when watching a beautiful ballet production at a local dance studio. It moved me with such beautiful soul and emotion and now I feel chill bumps when listening to it again. Thanks for writing this one, you've truly shown what it means to be a musician!

Im in love with this song when i heard it for the first time. It give me chills and this is so real .. I cant describe anymore . This song made me wanna cry 💕

Can you imagine, this films budget was 150 000$ and box office was 23,3 million $. When you make movies with your heart and make real stories and songs, great things happen.

i saw this movie in 2011 with the one that i love and all of song from this movie be my memories of her. and i never forget that every time i close my eyes i pray for her....

This song has been playing in my head for the whole day, so I come and listen to it. It is true, the song carries memories and stories, it is indeed an unspeakable experience to feel the weight of a song once again many years later.

The Last Man on Earth

I randomly get this song stuck in my head and I never knew where I heard it. I've tried to find this for years!!!!

I just rediscovered this song after 7 or 8 years. my parents would play this in the car anytime we went anywhere and my memories are mostly triggered by sounds. Nobody cares or will read this but I have very few memories from being young even though I'm a teen. There was a traumatic event that happened to me and my family when I was 9 and that sort of is my marker for all my memories and blocked everything before that out so I have little to no memories of when my life was genuinely good and happy. This and a few other songs bring me back to that time and it's always a little sad but I am always grateful for them. this is such a beautiful song and I love it. Thank you for sharing this. If you've read this far, have a wonderful day friend and remember that things do get better. ❤❤

I get emotional every single time I listen to this song. It's one of my favorites.

I met a guy in my friend group and we started dating. He broke up with me and I've been through hell, he's been through hell. He came back a month ago and were back together stronger than ever. I sent this song to him and this along with Under Your Scars is in our playlist we share. I love you my love x

มาจากเดอะวอยซ์ เพราะน้องอิมเมจเลยนะคร๊าบบบบ เพราะมว๊ากกกกกก ^^

Why am I feeling like this song is pulling my heartstrings? I just got teary eyed right up to the last verse. Never mind. I'm straight up crying right now.

Holy shit Mike and Tandy were so beautiful, I'm crying.

Omg I was receiving my proposal from my abroad boyfriend with this song and I didn’t thought about can be appearing in this playlist and now u got me on tears... I love this song and movie

This movie was one of those few movies that had a great impact on me.so simple, and sweet but powerful at the same time.

Max Boyle on The Voice just performed a gorgeous version of this tonight! 💗

We sat and held hands listened to this song and fell madly in love I felt you’re love every day ,only for me to ruin everything I lost you my love ,this is our song

Listening in 2021.....I know it’s not yet but come back then....I’ll still be here

This song was playing while I was getting my babies ultrasound check up it was a beautiful moment to see his precious face and this song in the background 💕💕

Anybody From Czech Republic? So proud that Markéta Sing this too :).

Simple yet ground-breaking, melancholy yet hopeful.

So old but gold, 11 years already

Beautiful; the melody and especially the lyrics... 🥺💘 bittersweet.

偶尔会想起的一首顶级歌曲，浓浓的情意！2023年，我又回来听歌了

I dedicate this song to the woman who saved my life..loved me for a week and then she was gone..I hoped she would stay longer..but you can't force someone to do that..

Great Irish film and song.

เดียวแม่งต้องมีคนตามมาจาก the voice 3 แน่ๆ

A master piece. Music at its best. Music lover got to be agreed!

10 years with this song. It's 2023 but love is the answer again

when people says 'lost stars' is the most fabulous music movie in the world, I just say Listen to this song..

If a man ever gets stuck with me, I will dance at my wedding to this

This song literally blessed my ears and I am soo grateful to God that this was made which poured so much feelings love and emotions ♥️♥️♥️

This song just popped in my head but just the melody. So happy i found. I was balling my eyes out tired of being alone and missing a love i never met. Tired of not having you with me to share life together. I cant bear it anymore. I have prayed for you countless days. I dont know what you look like or sound like but i know what you feel like, and its home. Its been so many years and i dont even remember what it is to love anymore but i pray with every fiber of my being that we are united now. I know you popped this song in my head. Just want to be wrapped in your hug. Im pointing my ship to you!

이노래엔 사랑하는 감정이 들어있어

Good trouble brought me here. Dennis & Davia play on the guitar and sing like four verses, I felt hooked to the words! Such a beautiful song.

I lost my virginity to this song, so many emotions, pain, tears, pure electric joy. What a mess I made! I love my beautiful wife X

I have only just watched this film.....what a haunting song!!

Got here from the Yuri!!" on Ice fic "Until My Feet Bleed and My Heart Aches" by Reiya. Love the song, so appropriate. :D You go Viktor!!

He came to visit my school last year... He got grey hair now... But he's an awesome guy!

marzę zaśpiewać w duecie....jest BOSKA

A meaningful lyrics combined with a glorious music..this is a one of my favourite songs until now..

Here after Finneas' playlist video. And dang. The girl sounds like Billie. The O'Connell siblings could really do a cover for this and slay it 😊👌

Marketa's high voice mixes perfectly with Glen's; there's no better compilation between two people when singing this song in my opinion. My favorite.

This is one of the best songs ever! the entire soundtrack is beautiful...

Im here after watching Kang Ha Neul singing this song while playing guitar on beach... Its just a sweet amazing song. Im falling in love since I love song like this 😍 falling slowly ~ i love it from beginning to the end ~

Even when I have never watched this movie, hearing to this and thinking about the reasons about why they ended up is a risk of drowning of my tears.

took me several years to find this song.. I started searching for this because Skins theme song to me sounds a little like Falling Slowly.. Glad I found this. Fucking masterpiece

Thanks, Tandy! #TheLastManOnEarth #TLMOE
