Van Morrison - Days Like This

[JeGe1953]

The male singer in the back is Brian Kennedy

[Mishy375]

Does anyone know who is the male back-up singer with the long dark hair ?

[fenderdre]

is that candy dulver in the background sax?

[stewiec42]

no , no copy.... There are similarities in sooo many many songs mate. Like i think its Train hey soul sister and james blunt stay the night

[66Bflo]

Music at it's best !

[MsMicellist]

A while ago I was having one of those days and my friend sent me this video. Well I'm having one of those days again and I'm back, and it still means a lot to me that he sent me here. It helps.

[meatloaf452]

People understand what I mean...there will be days like this...

[outdoorsman0331]

days like this and this one great song like this go van 

[pam20202]

@JstMeP Brian/Bryan Kennedy, he's Irish :)

[JstMeP]

Who is his backup singer?? LOVE his voice!

[gh777gh]

favorite song, hands down

[adamatova]

This is when music was real.

[mate6mty]

@adamatova music still is.New artists aren,t.

[tailsofoncecrystals]

Parents are gone away and our dog my da loves got run over who's going through a hard time. This songs preparing me for tomoro

[littleblindberme]

I love this song, someone knows the chords for guitar?I discover Van Morrinson 20 years ago when I was in my earlies twenties living in England doing bad-pay works as cleaning windows¡¡¡ and I had Irish friends who were continuosly listen to Van, it was a very happy time.bob wright if by chance you read this give me a call .

[nanabexhoeft]

This song has always done "it" for me. All the pieces are all there. Perfect. Thanks Mr. Morrison for just being. 

[ArthurVonBuntholtz]

You are my Hero-I am an old east german music-man!!

"Arthur von Buntholtz"-My song-"Blues of Afrika"-You are the best!! Gruß-Hansi

[CianPBarrett]

44 People have never had Days Like This!

[rmtmiller]

Nothing like a little relaxing Van Morrison after a hectic holiday weekend.

[Chainsy17]

I love the film clip. No flashy stuff, just a talented bunch of musicians making such a great sound in black and white. Also, that saxophone girl is gorgeous.

[sergieff99]

Yes sunny days, just like today Dec.24, 2011 in Saintpetersburg Florida! Love It!

[crazieguero]

Pure genius.

[dangbat1]

I never knew that dude from Creed sang back-up for Van. Huh.

But still...great stuff.

[Driklelisious]

:-)

[EinsteinTheBullie]

Van and Brian Kennedy need to re-connect!

[12345680943]

i love this song it gives me great feelings inside of me, thanku van morrison ur a good man for keeping so many people happy,xxx

[sorenpg]

It really sounds like John Mayer copied this song for "Waiting on the World to Change"... Any one else that hear the similarities?

[EinsteinTheBullie]

@sorenpg SO RIGHT!!

[TheIntruders]

@sorenpg Mayer's a hack. He stole countless chord progressions from Orpheus too.

[wwan1954]

@sorenpg yes, almost the same musical found.

[vinsanist]

agree siebenny...He is a genius

[pascale328]

Van! One of the greatest!

[twinoak170]

In Homer voice...saxomaphone.

[CTspinkid]

Me and my beloved late girlfriend Shelley shared so many fun and intimate moments to Van Morrison that will never be replaced. I miss you so much Shell Belle, whenever I miss you I put him on and SMILE:) I love you more than ever still.

[squarebrusher]

God, this girl + saxophone..

I just realised that this probably is Candy Dulfer some time ago. And her saxophone.

[squarebrusher]

God, this girl + saxophone.. So sexy.

[hollypnelson]

great song.....mommie was right- pieces of the puzzle! right on.  they fit

[docturlough]

I thought I'd only heard this song for the first time last year. But then I found a "First Year" Memories book my parents filled in during my first year of life. In it, it said, "Favourite Song: Days Like This- Van Morrison". I was a cool baby!

[hd1pan]

Für meine Mama...25.11.1940

[kaymuras]

goosepimples and a happy smile...

[aLoTuTuSa]

Jam!

[DirkjeA]

Beautiful song, love Van's voice. This man is a real poet. Great band too, especially Candy Dulfer is doing fantastic.

[yearofthecat2011]

Van the Man gives us hope and an escape route, that despite all the craziness in this world, there will be Days Like This, just like Mama told me.

[hampusdavinder]

Van Morrison är en bra artist.

[godzonek1w1]

first tune I heard on CBC Radio 2 this am.. as I looked out to a minus 19 white winter wonderland - my mama never told me there would be days like this! I love the voice of the harmony singer (Kennedy is it?).. Great song to get you looking at the positive ...

[goodthing52]

@godzonek1w1 Are you at the North Pole ! 19 below . Stay warm

[Kmack1376]

i love how he always uses the horn section..:)

[musicmaven2]

I really like Kennedy's voice harmonizing with Van. Love Night in San Francisco 2 cd release with Brian. Miss him.

[NovemberFrog]

Very Nice!

[szmoncess]

Huts off !

[sidman1408]

If you're a real music fan you'll know that this came from the Shirelles

[malibrad]

@sidman1408

If you're a real music fan you would know that the Shirelles' song is entirely different.

[sidman1408]

@malibrad you're right they are two completely different songs i was wrong

[gprosser11]

Like fine wine, still walesss....gpro

[TheKristobald]

This is the first time I hear this song. Won't be the last !

[BuDmAn6009]

Thank god van. Just ripped the ROOR for you sir.

[AranGalactico]

Haha, That's Brian Kennedy! G'man Brian..

[bristolcityifcation]

THANK GOD FOR THE REV VAN ! THE MAN ! MORRISON ! PUTS IT ALL IN TO PERSPECTIVE THERE WILL BE DAYS LIKE THIS !! PRAISE THE LORD !!

[zazoozaz123]

They'll be days like this... Thank God! Van, thanks for this song, this performance. Really good to hear you play sax. Your band is superb, everybody's got chops! God Bless you.

[jadenemayla]

yeah, there needs to be a LOVE button..

[pacatrue]

Think of how much talent is back in that horn section.

[gwhsvd1]

This played at my uncles funeral..Would be 10 years on the 23rd Dec, cant really believe it :/..

Rip i love you <3.

[sirandy600]

This is the best song of Van Morrison^^

[TheAndreeaBit]

<3 <3 <3 for all the joy and love in this song and in van's music. for all music lovers everywhere and for all artists who teach us, listeers, how to grow wings and fly! :)

[UNCIEAL]

There is no way its Van plays that sax solo never in a milion years.



[jzee20101]

Good old Van xxxxxxxxxxxxx

[crankyfrankification]

sorta says it all...dunno...

[mrgreensound]

love Van

[adicirciumaru]

magic music, I told you

[Ebyanm]

This is standing still days!!!! love the song.

[pweedman11]

v.m. a country misic star!

[xfiveohhx1]

VM blows me away

[mr8ballme4]

I just wish she had already signed with someone and could have said no. That would have shown them. People that do shows like this think they can play with peoples life and no matter what they will come back. Its just sad! She is a great singer and I really hope it comes down between her and Josh. Best of luck to both

[DantheMan28821]

I think VM is the Chuck Norris of Music

[SheCriesSilently]

what happened to music like this..

[DantheMan28821]

MAMA could me there were days like this

[paulisawesome14]

as good as it gets brought me here hehegreat film

[WlSEGUY]

can anyone help me? theres these lyrics that go something like "that devil in a freestyle..." or something like that. Sounds like VM's voice, sound familiar to anyone? I wanna know the song name...

[siebenny]

his music make me happy.. especially this song

[nuclearwars07]

my hero through his ages



[borjjalo]

wooow great song

[video2remaker]

possible .....my most favourite song of all times !!! 

[lulon7]

Van Morrison never gets it wrong

[MrBrundog]

I could never get tired of listening to Van Morrison.

[Samybaby2010]

♥...

[MrRazorblade999]

Sounds more like tired and uninspired routine. Van is not the great songwriter and soulful singer he used to be in the 70s.

[emptiness133]

Pure joy

[TheAndypd]

@colleenladxOx om my god i'm gonna puke

[papasieg]

ofcourse that is candy

[MrBrianojee]

@thecruxofthematter2 pointless waste of energy posting that hate comment. You've got some stuff to sort out I think...

[fastandfurious1986]

[fastandfurious1986]

[ChezKiva]

Is that Candy Dulfer?

[papasieg]

@ChezKiva yes

[onafront429]

[DavidPaulsen1000]

Being alaive and able to listen to music like this is just so cool!!

[j51345]

[bristolcityifcation]

ANOTHER TUNE FOR YOU CJ U LOVED VAN THE MAN AS I DID !!!!

[j51345]

@thecruxofthematter2 you can suck my fuckin dick u cunt

[bristolcityifcation]

@j51345 WHATS YOUR PROBLEM KNOB !!1 VAN IS THE MAN !!! SO I THINK YOU R A BIT OF A CUNT !!!!

[MrRonnieG]

So, who else thinks Morrison must have grown up listening to the Shirelles singing their 1961 hit, "Mama Said" (there'll be days like this)??

[ddprintworks]

@thecruxofthematter2 ...he probably thinks you are too !!

[endgame999]

dont think van has wrote a bad song, but hes an ignorant douche!

[hushcolours]

One of my favourite singers.

Unfortunately seldom played in the portuguese radio.

[Oddbase1]

What a lovely Irish soul song. Good days to everyone. Oddie.

[MrJohnpat]

one of my girls fav songs

[Sportymike]

Makes me proud to be Irish! We've got soul too ;)

[rorschac89]

does anyone know who is the woman who plays the piano?

[greyrosetint]

oooo yeaaaa ...

[slapshot37GNR]

When we don't get the train that brings us to peace...and we bring our children through the streets in a taxi cab that drives through hell...when we ignore the good in life...there'll be Days Like This.

[slapshot37GNR]

Irish = BEST SINGERS

[KirstieandMaks4ever]

kirstie alley sent me here via twitter!!!!!!

[BlackSabbathory]

Van the fuckin' Man.

[rikkistankey]

This song makes me feel good

[bosqoe]

Van the Man!

[Tharnatos1]

Awesome! I love this!! <3

[YuleDog1]

Great post my friend

[E6DOG]

van the legend

beautiful song

[bobcooper31]

Thanks to the guys who posted Candy's name to ensure I wouldn't die wondering about the identity of the pretty female sax player.

I have to admit I got the hots for her as soon as I saw a pretty blond playing with such an accomplished group. With her name supplied I looked her name up in Wikipedia and read her biography.

btw My wife has the hots for Brian Kennedy.

[ImHolmesick]

My momma told me it doesn't get better than this! Great song...great music..great singer. LOVE IT!

[TheHotshotmama]

hi comaradella - thanks for the nice comment on my taste in music. I have been a Van the Man fan since the 1970's, so my experience of his music is wonderful and it's nice to get such a lovely comment about my taste in music. Ta very much!!!

[marieandersen21]

this song reminds me of friday night, when I was a little kid, and my parents made pizza for me and my sister, and we were just sitting and chillin' while we listened to Van Morrison! best memories ever! :D

[TheKolibri78]

I used to work in an Irish Pub in Germany for 5 years and THIS was always our last song for last orders!!! Well good old times and I still love that tune ;o)))

[Animosity2UandU]

This man must be 60 years old but I love this song! I love the sound of real instruments played by real people! The horns give this song such a lush sound! I love it!

[itsok4now]

Ive had a lot of days like this. Great song about everything falling into place. Wonderful things happen when you expect wonderful things to happen.

[cdorrian575]

things are never as bad as they seem believe me x

[unbeatable1966]

@pacatrue I think it's Kate St John. She played with Van Morrison on the albums: Days Like This, No Guru No Method No Teacher, Hymns To The Silence, Too Long In Exile, A Night In San Francisco.

[pacatrue]

Is that Candy Dulfer next to Pee Wee Ellis back there? Pretty sure about Pee Wee, not so sure that's Candy.

[lancecarr]

@pacatrue Yes it's her.

[Donegaldan]

@pacatrue Yes it is Candy

[shadw797]

@Donegaldan Candy Dulfer! she's great.. and just smokin hot :) especially when she plays that horn... maybe it's cause i'm sax player too

[xxxx4thxjuly]

Van the man .

[johnnybabes2003]

nice to see brian and van together,,if only all people would follow their way this country would be brilliant

[7mimo8]

you're so right Van Morrison!! 

[durtieduck]

van " the man" morrison along with steve windwood and neil young, will go down in history as some of the best musicians to ever walk the earth. unfortuniately they probitlbly would get the credit they deserve until they're gone. i feel sorry for the younger people who never had the chance to to see the progression of what we now call classic music.

[aworowa]

Maravilloso.

[sanoonbs]

If only this song was my life's theme, oh how much better it would be.

[musik2die4]

Bravo. I had one heck of a day....now I'm feeling much better!

[Mulgatrees]

alto' players are looking best !

[dgwbuildwright]

brian kennedy backing vocals... brilliant

[inatizzy2]

Funny, I dont like Brass but when its Van..... I can deal with it. Makes the whole song.

[MyBiaandGu]

This man is fantastic!!!

[Chookie369]

This song is beautiful. Haven't heard it in years!!!

[DavidTransformer]

The sun is shining, van is singing, am having a beer.....loving days like this

[inatizzy2]

@DavidTransformer Here too having a beer but its Hotter than Hades here! BUT,, STILL can enjoy Van.

[MB007Mustangfan]

@DavidTransformer My hero !

[Psylonz]

@DavidTransformer i know that feeling! being at my bach up north in the summer. on the deck, with a cold beer, looking out at nature, with van in the background. best times

[Shirley4281]

Yes,There will be BAD and good Days.We have to strive through them.Just keep going.This is a beautiful song.I love it.Thanks van,for it to.

[Bluebottle83]

[FinCroweman]

van the man

[ShaneReihana]

awesome song keep them coming

[akitaman101]

For God so loved the world he gave a window washer from Belfast the mystic keys of Heaven to show the world that His gift of Life is precious and wonderful and must be shared with all the earth's children that they may love one another until He calls them home where they may spend eternity listening to van sing his songs forever and ever...

[surya1967now]

Klassische Schönheit.

[miamimom1]

[RasMajnouni]

@miamimom1 I guessing Lyn Fredrick

[don56texas]

[don56texas]

@miamimom1 that's Kate St John

[LOVEVEGAS777]

[greeniron32]

[DCarver803]

[jboconel]

[rbl0925]

I have a wonderful friend who suffers from depression...and he loves this song. And as I listen this morning I'm thinking of him and feeling great love, affection and respect. I'm looking forward to playing this wonderful song.

[gittahfiend]
