I remember collecting my daughter who went to oxygen. A day I will never forget. She got off the bus, filthy dirty and shattered. Her first time away from home with friends. I actually wasn't going to allow her to go as she was only 17. Looking at this, I'm glad I did. She had an amazing time.
Thousands of people singing in unison, orchestrated by one man with a guitar; the man who wrote the song. I cannot imagine the feeling when thousands of people are singing words that you originally sang. You know you've made it in life, you know you've captured the emotions, the imagination, the passion within those people. What I find even more incredible is that, words put to some chords can create such an emotion, such a communal affair... That those simple words can bring a tear to the most emotionless person. It's beautiful
Amazing. Perfect description of the entire moment. I would love to find an over 50 man who could feel and express such depth of emotion.... Yeah, I know. That is old...like when dirt was created. Hey, we are still alive you guys!!!!;) God bless you, Jordan!!! And keep going Snow Patrol....so beautiful. peace and love, mg
Exactly, the artist having the public pay him to hear themselves sing. This is the essence of politics: getting the public/the masses believe you're special while they do all the work.
I was there . . . . we camped in the red tent site , got drunk on 5 euro pints . walked for miles in muddy wellys and got soaked to the skin in the Irish summer rain , and like the 80 thousand other people , we sung our hearts out to this . the emotion on Garys face and the reaction of everyone in the crowd is something i will never forget . I get goosebumps now just watching it .
@@fernandom1743me gusta Coldplay, pero pienso que en composición musical snow Patrol es superior, Coldplay gana por ser una banda muy comercial...grande snow Patrol los ví en vivo en USA, y tocan espectacular...
Москвы) I'll sing it one last time for you Я спою тебе это в последний раз, Then we really have to go А потом нам действительно нужно идти. You've been the only thing that's right Ты была единственной правильной вещью, In all I've done Из всего, что я сделал. And I can barely look at you И я могу только едва взглянуть на тебя, But every single time I do Но каждый раз, когда я остаюсь в одиночестве, I know we'll make it anywhere Я знаю, что мы сделаем это где-нибудь Away from here Далеко отсюда... Light up, light up Светись, светись!
Patrol Run (оригинал Snow Patrol) Беги (перевод Александр Хопёрский из Москвы) I'll sing it one last time for you Я спою тебе это в последний раз, Then we really have to go А потом нам действительно нужно идти. You've been the only thing that's right Ты была единственной правильной вещью, In all I've done Из всего, что я сделал. And I can barely look at you И я могу только едва взглянуть на тебя, But every single time I do Но каждый раз, когда я остаюсь в одиночестве, I know we'll make it anywhere Я знаю, что мы сделаем это где-нибудь Away from here Далеко отсюда... Light up, light up Светись, светись! As if you have a choice Так, будто у тебя есть выбор. Even if you cannot hear my voice Даже если ты не услышишь моего голоса, I'll be right beside you dear Я буду совсем рядом с тобой, дорогая. Louder louder Громче, громче! And we'll run for our lives И мы будем бежать всю нашу жизнь. I can hardly speak I understand Я с трудом могу говорить, я понял Why you can't raise your voice to say Почему ты не можешь говорить громче. To think I might not see those eyes Если подумать, я мог бы не видеть этих глаз. Makes it so hard not to cry Очень трудно заставить себя не плакать. And as we say our long goodbye Я чуть было не сделал так, I nearly do Как будто мы надолго сказали друг другу "Прощай!" Light up, light up Светись, светись! As if you have a choice Так, будто у тебя будет выбор. Even if you cannot hear my voice Даже если ты не услышишь моего голоса, I'll be right beside you dear Я буду совсем рядом с тобой, дорогая. Louder louder Громче, громче! And we'll run for our lives И мы будем бежать всю нашу жизнь. I can hardly speak I understand Я с трудом могу говорить, я понял Why you can't raise your voice to say Почему ты не можешь говорить громче. Slower slower Медленнее, медленнее! We don't have time for that У нас нет на это времени. All I want is to find an easier way Все что я хочу, это найти легкий путь, To get out of our little heads Чтобы отвыкнуть от наших маленьких жизней. Have heart my dear Будь милосердна, дорогая. We're bound to be afraid Мы сдерживаемся, боясь Even if it's just for a few days Смириться со всей этой неразберихой, Making up for all this mess Даже если это всего лишь на несколько дней. Light up, light up Светись, светись! As if you have a choice Так, будто у тебя будет выбор. Even if you cannot hear my voice Даже если ты не услышишь моего голоса, I'll be right beside you dear Я буду совсем рядом с тобой, дорогая. Х 
Who listens to this in 2022 and get goosebumps because of the crowd. In my opinion one of the best concerts and crowd of all the time. Wish I was there... xx
If anyone ever asks why I obsess over music so much I wanna show them this video. This gives me goosebumps throughout the whole thing. Music just bring people together and I love it.
I am 61 and used to always be this way-you could remember the temperature when you first heard and LP for the first time, DJ's played what they wanted and music of this caliber came out every…single…week…
This was the first song I learnt to play on guitar and sing as a 9 year old. I remember my teacher showing me it at school. I came home that night and my dad asked me what I’d done in my guitar lesson. I told him that I had learnt to play and sing “Run” by Snowpatrol. And he was immediately so excited to hear me play it. I asked why. He told me it was his favourite song ever, and it was the first and last song he saw me play. He passed away a year later. And I played the song at his funeral. That was 7 years ago. Now it’s our song. Gary Lightbody- you gave us this song. The song my Dad was sent home to. Thank you. 🙏🏻
Oxygen 2009 was my first festival! I was there- no phones just the best live gig. That year was unreal. The killers, Lady gaga, kings of Leon and Katy Perry played amongst others! Such a line up… terrible weather but nobody cared. I’m off to snow patrol in thomand park in July. I’m alot older now but I will still give it socks like we did that night!
Just imagine thousands of strangers singing a song written by you in unison along with you. I think Gary can rest easy throughout his life knowing that he truly made his mark.
Totally agree with you, not to mention that Gary wrote this at the age of 15 in his bedroom. It's about being so lost in your life and you have no idea just who you are or if you'll ever realize your dreams. You're so young and terrified you'll amount to nothing in life, and then your loved ones step in and say "light up" and this is unconditional support no matter what. Those words are what Gary imagined his family would say to him, and they did. He's a incredible songwriter and has the ability to reach deep into everyone with his music and lyrics.
I lost count of how many times I've watched this... It's so beautiful! This is why music exists and play a major role in most of our lives! OUTSTANDING!
+pretty girlx actually we're not as bad as other places a lot of concerts I've been too recently, of course have had people filming some parts, but it wasn't like a sea of phones. And the crowds are still just as loud and sing a long just as much.
Any crowd: "We sing along, lalala!" Irish crowd: "Hold my Guinness!" When an Irish person goes to a concert, they become part of the band. This is - by far - the most emotional and best live music video on RU-vid!
And this - exactly this, is what I think is the most magical in music. There is not much background music needed, just a few gentle chords, a beautiful voice like Gary's and that's enough to bring a crowd of this size to burst. This atmosphere - just unbelievable. Chapeau for such great musicians and such a great crowd.
I have to say goodbye to my best friend for 13years, my dog Mamba. And while she was flying to angels at vet i was listening this. She find her peace and i will never forget her. She was my first and only puppy 🙏🏼🥲🐶
I’d like to dedicate this song to my late wife. She passed away 27 months ago and this song just hits hard. It’s lovely and sad. But it gives me comfort that she’s in a better place. No more pain and no more suffering. I miss you my love, forever infinity
Wow! My eyes welled up with tears of joy for and with him when I saw his emotional response to thousands of people singing his song as one voice. Tremendous experience for him and the fans.
ever wonder what power looks like? how about 10000 people all raising their voice in unison? do. not. take. oppression. you are human you are part of the human engine. love and be loved.
It is not just that Snow Patrol are amazing... it is not just the Gary Lightbody is the modern day people's poet.. it's that there is absolutely ZERO arrogance or fakeness. Just appreciative musicians entertaining with AMAZING talent and humility. It is why Snow Patrol are simply pure.
Totally agreed,perhaps Queen at Live Aid comes close to this performence. But both are a 'not from this planet/earth' concert.Must be extremely lucky when you were there..
just a young man who left his home to chase his dreams, and he ended up on a stage with thousands of people singing his song. that there... that is the true beauty of life.
I'll sing it one last time for you Then we really have to go You've been the only thing that's right In all I've done And I can barely look at you But every single time I do I know we'll make it anywhere Away from here Light up, light up As if you have a choice Even if you cannot hear my voice I'll be right beside you dear Louder, louder And we'll run for our lives I can hardly speak I understand Why you can't raise your voice to say To think I might not see those eyes Makes it so hard not to cry And as we say our long goodbyes I nearly do Light up, light up As if you have a choice Even if you cannot hear my voice I'll be right beside you, dear Louder, louder And we'll run for our lives I can hardly speak I understand Why you can't raise your voice to say? Slower, slower We don't have time for that All I want is to find an easier way To get out of our little heads Have heart, my dear We're bound to be afraid Even if it's just for a few days Making up for all this mess Light up, light up As if you have a choice Even if you cannot hear my voice I'll be right beside you dear
@biggeordie1970 10 years ago just gets better every time i listen to it, amazing band, amazing song, totally awesome crowd ..... 10 years on and still gives me goosebumps ... awesome band
