  • i remeber Foy Vance play the guitar in a pub i worked in in belfast every sunday night back in 2002-2003 (The Northern Whig, Belfast Northern Ireland). there used to be about 15 people max in there...he was brilliant back then and he is super now! So glad i got to see him speak to him and listen to his music while playing in pubs.

  • Wow I'm lovin this song! :O

  • fo is from the northern irish town of bangor also the hometown of snow patrol both have had their music used on Greys Anatomy

  • Comment removed

  • o how i love foy vance :)

  • this is an awesum song

  • this guy is absolutely amazing..he blows me away. i first heard this song n grey's anatomy and i havent gotten enough of it since. plz..listen to my cover, just click on my name.

  • This song is awesome ...full of meaning and the timbre of his voice - wow!

  • i cant get enough of this song. so moving. so well performed.

  • yea he grew up in the usa but moved back to ireland, bangor to be exact. he also played the bass for van morrison for a while!

  • black box, waterfront and oxegen... all awesome!

  • he was at oxegen '07? If he was i wish i knew of him then

  • I saw him on stage in Dublin. He's f**king good. Pity there's no one to book him gigs in mainland Europe. Spread the good word: a legend is born.

  • this guy is soo amazing... he is too gd for the ears of retards who don't appreciate him.

  • I saw him play in Brighton last year, he is an Irishman. He was excellent.

  • yessss it is him on Greys

  • has anyone heard the version of this on Grays Anatomy? is it Foy singing it or someone else with an american accent. The origional is the best!

  • It's Foy and the clip can now be found here on Youtube.

  • i dont think it is, my friend, listen carefully!

  • The clip is on here. You can find it using the search words "foyvance", "gabriel" and "vagabond". It's definitely him and I'm sure of this because when I saw him in concert in the Waterfront Hall in Belfast he told the audience all about it.

  • well, he must have changed his accent and re-recorded it, because thats a west coast accent he sings it in in greys!

  • Foy also told us he grew up living in America then moved back to Northern Ireland. It explains the American influence in the way he sings. Are you convinced yet or do you need even more proof?

  • foys a spoofer! dont believe him

  • lol How do you know that? Are you from N Ireland? The word 'spoofer' gave it away. Only us folks from good ol' Norn Iron say that!

  • newtonabbey mate!

  • Aha! I knew it!

  • Brought up on Guinness and Nutty crust!!!

  • I tried to drive to Newtownabbey once but I got lost. I should have bought the new JonJoe sat nav for NI. Have you heard of it? If not then check out jonjoe(dot)net!!!!!

  • he's from belfast, n. ireland my friend.

  • anyone know were this guys from???

  • excellent smooth voice

  • This song and his voice it just makes me tingle evrytime i hear it its so beautiful

  • I'm fascinated by this guy, and I'm impressed with the two videos I've seen.

  • This guys is special

  • Class song... Luvin Foy!!

  • Usually his tabs are a nightmare, he uses tunings like CGDGCe.

  • yeh if anyone knows or has the tabs for this plz reply..

  • has anyone got the guitar tabs for this one?

  • if you do end up finding the tabs or notes can u let me know cuz i really wanna play this on my guitar
