  • I cant think of the words to express how much of a true legend your really are Edwyn. in so so so many more ways than just one. if i could just have 1 speck of determination and willpower you have i think i would feel like a God, because you to me Sir are one in a Million.

    much respect

    Steve from the UK!!

  • @sunhouse76 Thanks, but I'm not Edwyn Collins, nor am I relaying messages to him.

  • @nasratfatty bro trust me there is no way i thought you were lol it was just what i would say to him. like in a hole what i would say encase he did ever see it. lol

    thanks for posting it anyway man :O)

  • Edwyn is fantastic, and Grace is aptly named :)

    All the best to you from a Glaswegian in Canada.

  • I saw him play on the main stage at the Latitude festival recently, he put on a great show!

  • this is a glimpse into a society, or a community, with real passion and compassion -- this is greater than it seems!!!

  • absolutely fantastic! Totally inspiring. How can I be depressed when Edwyn has battled against so much. Thank you for posting this!

  • its been a tough year for a lot of people, myself included. Watching this show is a wonderful pick me up. An inspiration.

  • Edwyn Collins - Charm personified. I´ve lived away from the UK for some years now and not that long since I was in a smokey late bar in Germany´s Black Forest. Out the blue came on You Can´t Hide Your Love Forever and I had a deep feeling of love for everyone around me. It still does that for me after all these years.

    Edwyn Collins - Master at Work. Thankyou.

  • I Knew the song, but not the artist. Now I know the artist, but I love the person. Best wishes.

  • Thanks for posting that. Such a journey.

  • Wow, such a moving documentary. Such a brave man, and in my own opinion, the greatest artist ever to come from Edinburgh. What a hero.

  • Hero

  • Amazing...inspiring!!! Heroic!

  • THANK YOU for posting this. Been a huge fan for years...but I hadn't heard anything about Edwyn's strokes until now (the story not being as newsworthy in Canada I guess?). You Rock Edwyn.

  • A true hero!

    Makes me proud to be Scottish. Proud to be a human being.

    By the way - what are the chords for Blue Boy? Great tune!

  • Amazing man. Not a complaint out of him. Might as well get "NO WHINERS" tattooed across his forehead. Here's a (hug) from America, Edwyn!

  • What a wonderful documentary. Thank you very much for posting. I struggled to hold back the tears from the off-set, but they cascaded anyway!

  • Thank you so much for posting this. Been a fan since picking up the Postcard 7" singles as a kid and never stopped...seeing his illness is heartbreaking, but the recovery and resolve- that's brilliant and beyond inspiring.

    Cheers to Edwyn.

  • amazing!

  • Such an incredible musician and person. It's just so wonderful to see that he continues doing what he loves most.

  • I hadn't seen this,I just cried all the way through it.

    I grew up listening to Orange Juice and Edwyn's voice and words are always in my mind all these years on.

    I suffered a spinal cord injury ten years ago and at times feel like giving up.

    Seeing this has made me realise how much can be achieved by never giving in and with the love of so many people.

    They both are special human beings.

    Thanks so much for posting this up.

  • Amazing Grace!!!!!!!!!!

  • Humbling.

  • Thanks so much for putting this on here, I wouldn't have got to see it otherwise. Very inspiring - and what wonderful people he has around him!

  • I heard Edwyn Collins the first time on a New York radio station and he was unlike anything they were playing at the time. That was over 14 years ago. I'm still listening.

    Thank You Edwyn Collins for a fabulous recovery. As far as I'm concerned you never left because you are here with music, where you belong my friend.

  • Proof that the human spirit is still alive.

  • Wow! Never got to see this on TV. Probably one of the most inspiring docs I've ever seen. Thanks for sharing xxx

  • the song 'home again' takes on a kind of late johnny cash brilliance to it.

  • Determination.

  • blue boy is the most beautiful song ever

  • oh and doesn't his boy look like him?

    and hats off to grace for her obvious love and support
