This is incredible. When her voice comes in for the chorus it's complete heaven. Heaven in musical form. In fact, maybe that's all heaven is, these two singing 'Into The Mystic'.
Love that style of singing songs ... he`s absolutly brilliant... the only one who can sing Van M. songs without destroying! Absolutly brilliant! Sounds like the old Van becomes a young man again !!! Great!!! Don`t stop this !
This was my favorite song on the ONCE soundtrack album. Then found out it was a Van Morrison song. there is proof in the pudding that Mr Morrison makes great music - as i loved the song without knowing it was a cover. Great Cover Glen!
i am a huge van morrison fan, but god damn. this in my opinion has to be better than the original. glen is the man and u can just see how much he loves doing what he does in every song he sings.
i remember a time when i was obsessed with this cover, just recently i rented a van morrison cd from the library, my first time ever listening to his music. The whole time i was listening i just kept thinking, man glen hansard sort of sings with same soul (van morrison was irish). and so i decided to look this song up and didnt even know back in the day when i was obsessed that this was a van morrison song. This really is a great song though, i love glen hansard and marketa irglova.
This song and Bob Marley's Natural Mystic do a number on me. I'm by no means a spiritual being. But these 2 songs pull me in deep into soulfulness. A sense of separation from the material world of things and of the familiar. I can't explain it using words. Let's call it a different state of being.
The woman is Marketa Irglova and she is actually from the Czech Republic, Glen is also in a famous irish band called The Frames check them out they are amazin!
Great cover of one of Van's best songs. Try to watch " Glen Hansard meets Van Morrison "----it's a great interview & well worth watching Glen has a great voice,doesn't he
Totally awesome.... i much prefer this to van morrison's original - raw and how it should be from the heart. I saw them do a couple of numbers in manchester at Once preview and they are brilliant - only need new Frames album now!!!!!
Best cover/rendition of this song on you tube. I've watched it non stop for 2 days now. Very inspiring. Thank you both! When can we see you in Chicago?
I want to download this song exactly as it is. How can I do this? This is my favorite rendition of all time and I have to say that Van Morrrison, even though he doesn't even know I exist, is my soul advisor. I just love this version the very best.
Was this filmed recently or a while ago. The quality is really making me remember my home videos from the 90s, nostalgic. Really nice cover, too, singing was great and I love how you dealt with the sax. You really captured the spirit of the song. Please check out my cover of the same song if you have the time, I'd really appreciate it. I subbed, consider subbing back if you like what you see! :)
