  • this song it's just beautiful

    from Mexico, hermosa cancion!!!

  • I always have a problem after listening to this song... what now? What can follow up THIS song?!?!

  • Thank you, Julia Nunes.

    <3

  • HEY WATCH MY COVER OF THIS SONG! RATE AND COMMENT! I DON'T CARE ABOUT NEGATIVE RESPONSES SO COMMENT AWAY!

  • this song...

  • goosebumps ----- every time..

  • This Song is simply awesome :)

  • This song is the epitome of feeling. Nothing but a man, and his guitar. This is hands down the BEST acoustic song ever done.

  • I'm scratching at the surface now

    And I'm trying hard to work it out

    So much has gone misunderstood

    This mystery only leads to doubt

    And I didn't understand

    When you reached out to take my hand

    And if you have something to say

    You'd better say it now

  • Cause this is what you've waited for

    Your chance to even up the score

    And as these shadows fall on me now

    I will somehow

  • @colourwithnocolour1 I think he sings, "I wish somehow"?

  • @TonyCH0 I'm pretty sure it's "I will somehow"

  • @liamjenright Will what? I'm pretty sure that "will" implies "will do something". So in the context of the song, what will he do, if you're pretty sure that he says, "will"? Rather, it sounds like a lot of aspiration going on there at 1.31 as though it's "sh" rather than "ll". I'm pretty sure that he'd wish somehow that you say it to me now. :-)

  • @TonyCH0 "This is what you've waited for/ your chance to even up the score/ and as these shadows fall on me now, I will somehow", meaning, he will in fact be the one to "even up the score". I could be wrong, but that's what all the lyrics sites I've been to have it as, so that's how I read it.

  • fuckin class

    nuff said

  • Wish I could shout like him...:( But I don't have such a strong voice D: God damn you mom and dad!

  • @YourichiCat you can just channel that emotion from inside. it's not about shouting its the pain & heartache comming out.. go to that place inside you & unlease it..

  • ohhh you can just feel the desperation in his voice.

  • I just know so many Irish people who know 'how' to sing! From the heart ... and loud!

  • i met Glen with my writing group "Fighting Words" he played a little gig for us it was amazing he is my hero and who ever said not to meet your heroes is a fool cause he was the nicest bloke you could ever meet i got to play hes guitar and sing one of my own song ! best day of my life so far =D

  • fuck you tracy

  • Love it!

  • fuck you jocelyn

  • not feelin it.

  • @b4iFuRu15 have you seen the movie Once...the scene when he is playing this song is friggen good

  • @Heatheretts nah, i havent. is it a badass one?

  • Pura pasión, pura magia, puro amor.

  • lo mejor 

  • 25 people have no souls.

  • Great song! Unfortunately almost anyone knows glen in spain :(!

  • Apparently, he's going to be on the soundtrack for the new Hunger games movie coming out in March. The movie is going to be huge worldwide and I'm sure he'll get a lot more recognition for his talent! :) can't wait!

  • The most underappreciated artist of all time

  • @l0Like0It0Like0That Be aware that maybe we are, who love Glen Hansard's work are not many, but we love it honestly. Far more than the pop icons fans their own favourites. (Did not write their name down intentionally. They are mentioned already too much by their fans, and haters alike)

  • Just perfect x

  • 23 fuckin dopes

  • Maravilhoso ouvi-lo, melhor poder vê-lo cantar, colocar suas emoções! Ele é lindo!

  • @evaniaLu Maravilhoso ouvi-lo cantar. Melhor seria poder vê-lo cantando e colocando suas emoções para fora. Ele é lindo!

  • dude jamming out his guitar.perfect.who says guys aren't deep?

  • How was that 2:36 minutes? I must have gotten lost in his voice, because all of a sudden the song was over, and I thought it had just started.

    Magical - both the song and his voice.

  • Shouts from his heart, guts, soul, brains.. Shouts his theeth off. Amazingest male voice ever.

  • I remember listening Glen Hansard singing this in Nancy Spain Cork 1995. And just after the gig, Glen was at the bar drinking and talking to everyone. Such a cool guy with great songs... and great Frames.

  • I love that he sounds so controlled even amongst all that emotion.

  • Love @ first sight Jamas habia oido hablar de el y nos cautivo a mi esposa y a mi !

  • describe the song in one word: powerful

  • i love you Glen (:

  • ♥ ♥ ♥

  • Im afraid to say something on this video in fear of sounding like everyone elses touched comments. This song is simply unfathomable. No words can touch it.

  • U_U Saaay iiit meeee noow¡¡¡ O meeen thiiis music

  • O.O

  • this song gives me the shivers everytime i hear it. i tear up, its amazing

  • nice

  • Wow.

  • looove this song!!!

  • 22 people doesn't have heart..

  • @dziundzis3 23 people dont

  • When he does that fantastic yell he sounds so much like Dave Grohl. Despite this I find his sound quite unique. Utterly fantastic.

  • Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah, Im so in love with this voice

  • his dude is amazing...I am trying to get out of the funk I am in ...the same Damien Rice, Willy Fitz and the rest of them i want to find more like this.....but those guys are GREAT

  • GAAAWWWWWD LOVE LOVE LOVE HIM. a TRUE original...not many out there these days. If I hear one more cookie cutter boy band recod label studio-created BS I swear I am going to pull my hair out. THANK YOU GLEN for putting it out there!!!!

  • I LOVE THIS MAN! HE UNDERSTANDS ME!

    

  • I love how Glen Hansard shouts from his heart!

  • @victorallardlymulis who's Beaver?

  • @mopmu Justin Bieber's nickname, because he is from Canada and people like to joke about Canadians and beavers. Btw, I don't think you wanted to ask me, did you?

  • @victorallardlymulis I know man ;p I was kidding

  • this song take me to somewhere else

  • This movie's great and the soundtrack even better!

  • *tiny orgasm

  • Oh my god this is just pure prodigy!

  • Glen Hansard!!!!!!!! Yeah!!!!!!

  • ahhhhh were related!!!!:DDD

  • I prefer the original

  • 20 people don't have a soul!

  • Comment removed

  • @theinstinct0 lol well put. this song makes me feel things about stuff.

  • @IIIMPULSE LMAO! =D I was thinking the same thing

  • @theinstinct0 LOL!!!! WHO TALKS LIKE THAT!?!?!?! XD

  • <3 times infinity

  • bahhhhh :)

  • This song needs to be longer!!!

  • Hear a man bear his soul through song....your listening to Glen

  • When I first heard this in the movie I was so blown away!! Glen Hansard comes comes in with absolutely ridiculous passion and intensity on this song that is just amazing!!! Such an amazing song, thanks for the post!

  • You could swing the sharpest axe at Glen Hansard's neck as hard as you possibly could but it would not make it through the vocal cords, period.

  • Dios, no puedo parar de escucharla, es hermosisima.

  • so much soul in his voice. it's incredible. he may be one of my favorite singers of all time.

  • i wish i could sing like him or play the guitar...... 

  • Love this guy :)

  • 18 people have no soul

  • Once upon a time, it was amazing.

  • I wish this scene was on youtube. It is by far my favorite scene in the entire movie.

  • WOW!!!! now that's heart, so much emotion....

  • Glen Hansard or Damien Rice?

  • @ZaireBetter dude.. thats not even fair.

  • @ZaireBetter  that's a choice I could NEVER make.

  • @ZaireBetter That's a tough choice. I think I'd have to go with Damien Rice because I love all his songs. While Glen has some amazing songs, I think he has some misses. I think both of them put so much into their music you can't deny either of them as amazing. This song is by far the best song between the both of them. This is what makes this choice so hard.

  • holy shit!. nice.

  • 18 people didnt even up the score.

  • mannn so passionte... ILOVEIT! :)

  • hey guys! does anyone know where i can find "and the healing has begun" performed by Glen? i'd be very grateful!

  • Maybe it has to do with the acoustics of the open streets, but when he sings this in the movie it's the best version I've heard. So much passion and raw emotion. If only more artists would follow that direction instead of just simply "singing" a song.

  • 15 peaple are twats that don't know what music is... And Justin Beiber fans...

  • @tehnoobshowmachinima Oh gosh, that whole Beiber Fever thing is such a load of crap! He's a disease to this world! It's so nice to actually see negativity towards him for once!

  • @SoftCoyote2003 you're such a fuckwit. I hope the '2003' is your age, otherwise your comment cannot be justified.

  • @dspm90 Your vulgar language is unnecessary. I was merely stating my opinion. And of course I'm not 2003 years old, hyperbole's are so overrated... Beiber is a typical teenage boy who has no place in the music world at the moment. His sound is unoriginal as are most other bands out there. To top it all off, he is just adding to the hysteria of teenage girl hormones who go of the deep end in obsession towards him.

  • @SoftCoyote2003 my language is unnecessary? your opinion is unnecessary, but you still have the right to express it, as I have the right to swear. I meant to ask if 2003 was your birth year, not your age - that's my mistake. My point is, while you're entitled to your opinion, and I agree that he isn't a great musician, your opinion is recycled and has absolutely no merit as far as I'm concerned, and to say he has no place in the music world is absolutely ridiculous... in my opinion.

  • @dspm90 There we go, that's better. :) I simply find it hard to have a civil conversation about opinions with someone who is swearing. And no, 2003 is not my birth year, 1992 is. I'm very glad this has not turned into a full blown arguement because I don't like to argue to change people's opinion. You have yours, and I have mine. :)

  • @SoftCoyote2003 total agree but WHY was justin bieber brought up on this video?just listen to the nice music :)

  • @MediAndClaire I don't know, I was just going along with one of the comments. :) I didn't bring it up, just voiced my appreciation to someone who has the same opinion or so it seems. ;) Didn't mean to get someone mad at me. XD

  • @SoftCoyote2003 i'm so confused, i don't remember writing that but whatevz. this is good music eh.who cares about justin bieber?NOT ME.

  • This has been and will probably always will be my favorite song. <3 absolutely beautiful and true and it just TOUCHES you. Good music, so hard to find.

  • "mystery only leads to doubt"

    how true is that !!!!!

    \\\not knowing where someones been, and doubting their explanation///

  • Fuckin glen is the best song!!!

  • Best song from the movie. Great stuff. :)

  • Is this the first song from the movie? When he's on the street in Dublin?

  • @cbrandom Indeed it is, and the best one also !

  • When I first saw the movie. He was singing slow and I was into the music...then he started screaming and literally took me by surprise..And for the first time in a long I was close to dropping a tear while hearing a song. So much emotion.

  • @ZaireBetter same here it was amazing how he just flipped & gave it all he had. powerful

  • Absolutely fucking phenomenal.

  • Such passion in his voice, damn he is amazing

  • who would have thought that a guy named GLEN could be so awesome :) rock on!

  • This gives me chills .

  • Best voice after Freddie Mercury and Bruce Dickinson

  • Glen Hansard's music is so beautiful :') it's so hard to find songs like this nowadays, his passion is incredible. -3

  • 1:No Talking about Beaver

    2:No replay button talk

    3:No trolling

    4:Enjoy the damn music

    5:Love Everyone

  • @CrossFangs Couldn't have said it better. The screaming during this song when he does it live is ridiculous. It's Great wooden music... Listen...

  • @CrossFangs Amen crossfangs

  • @CrossFangs 6: No "18 people must have missed the 'like' button in some crazy, absurd, unrealistic way" jokes.

  • @CrossFangs you just mentioned beaver head. So now its all your fault for making me think of it

  • I've never heard so much passion in music before. The way he sings it is just so beautiful and I want to say so much more, but I'm just speechless by how amazing it is.

  • I just assaulted the replay button...

  • words cant describe how much i love this song!talent such as glens is extremely hard to come across today with all the bullshit music on the scene but his vocal ability, songwriting and the passion he puts into each word of every song is fuckin a!

  • this is..........SONG WRITING

  • My dad bought this film, sat me down and made me watch it, sooo glad he did haha! Cried to this performance, absolutely amazing ! Glen Hansard is unreal! X

  • @HughesAlexandraMarie You've got a cool dad. :)

  • @teejate Hahaha, he is pretty cool like ! :)

  • thank you for uploading 

  • Glen Hansard really is an outstanding musician and inspiration.

    Complete mistake how I came across him and the Frames 6 years back, but one of the best mistakes I'll ever make.

    Saw him play this in January, unplugged, and some girl left for the toilet not long into it... You never hit a woman, but man, I was sooooo close...

  • I just felt my penis move. 

  • @FlinkyDink8 My pussy just got wet. :)

  • No matter how many times I listen to this song it *still* rouses so many different, conflicting emotions in me...sadness, happiness, catharsis...so powerful and moving.

  • i gave him 300,000 views. Your welcome glen.

  • is this at all spiritual -esque?

  • damn how come such good songs are so short

  • disregarding the OCTOPUSSYPOPTATOCANNON!

  • watch?v=p3re3i5qW2Q

  • oh ma gawd....just...chills.

  • amazinh

  • Goose bumps every god damn time

  • This guy sings with such passion; his voice goes right through me... Thanks for posting.

    WendySings1

  • He is so passionate in this song. His passion takes my breath away.

  • When this song started playing and you see Glen alone in the streets playing it I got the chills and knew this movie was going to be extraordinary.

  • @ecsgrl

    Same thoughts here. Just finished watching the movie. Blew my fucking head away.

  • @ecsgrl same happen to me

  • @ecsgrl ive never seen it all, but a good majority of it, hes a true musical hero, so fuck todays teenage bash bullshit, and cure your heart with glen, not metal

  • @ecsgrl totally, me too.

  • @ecsgrl I had the same feeling when this movie came on to one of the cable networks. I was bored and I almost turned the channel when I first saw him standing there in the street singing this song and it just drew me in and I was hooked. The passion is refreshing. Not something seen in music these days.

  • same here:)

  • So this is what you've waited for - Your chance to even up the score

  • Comment removed

  • Seen this movie far too many times now :) blown away after 5 mins of first viewing... g/f hates it. Something about this performance just grabs you. What a way to start a credit sequence man

  • So beautiful!!!

  • Beautiful. The length of it leaves me wanting more.

  • So much soul, this is incredible.

  • There are always tears in my eyes when I listen to this. Brilliant musician he is!

  • there are 12 people who have terrible taste in music

  • @stephandledg Those 12 ppl did´nt even listen...

  • he's really something! :-)

  • Hi's voice is different but i love it : ) !

  • this song truly shows off his amazing vocals. when i saw him in concert he ssang this without a microphone or anything, just him and the guitar. i seriously got goosebumps. its just too bad that marketa irglova and him arent preforming together anymore:(

  • Probably the best and most underrated song from one of the best movies of all time, "Once." I get chills every time Glen belts that chorus out. Absolutely perfect.

  • Probably the best and most underrated song from one of the best movies of all time, "Once." I get chills every time Glen belts that chorus out. Absolutely perfect.

  • *goosebumps*

  • This song is the haunting cry of a broken Catholic conscience.

  • @emperorglenuff What you mean is that its unmistakeably Irish...

  • I really like this song :-)
