  • thankyou for reminding me of what matters in this world, and for putting all my petty worries and vanity into a well needed perspective, I love this song so much, and your choice of images makes it all the more poignant. I wish the world could open its eyes and see what we are doing to ourselves. You have made me cry, but I thank you for those tears. Much love x

  • Damn there good, how come I have never heard of them before? The voice, lyrics, song everything about the song is outstanding.

  • This gets me every time xx

  • Heya, i was wondering if you knew anywhere i could get hold of a copy of the entire gig this video is from? many thanks!

  • @theoldergear

    Hi, I don't know where you could get it. At the time they sold the cd's after the gig (in Edinburgh). I was lucky to be there. The cd was a limited edition.

  • @theoldergear

    There is digital version of CD on the Internet, it's called Live at the Half Moon Cork. It's for 3$ I think.

  • @theoldergear

    There is a digital version of this on the Internet, the CD's called Live at the Half Moon Cork. 3$ as far as I remember.

  • First heard this in Birmngham at a live gig and it was very new and untried, but still touched me very deeply and still does, I wish the voice in this song could be heard more widely, the world saddens me as it is, and your pictures illustrate that so well, I just hope the world's political "powers" can open their eyes and see what they are doing, thankyou so much for posting.

  • @fauxsham From Birmingham? Get in Touch man, don't know many Lev's fans from the Local Area... Love & Peace x

  • @chocomog35 would love to friend, but I've somehow blown right across the country and ended up on the East Coast, love and peace to you as well x

  • Very awesome. And so very true ! Thanks for posting this video. Marcya11

  • Beautiful song. Beautiful video.

  • I saw Simon played this song in Felixstowe in Nov 2004. Truely awe-inspiring.

    Resist

  • thank you so much. this is what the world is really like and i appreciate anyone who doesn't sugarcoat the true brutality of humans. thank you

  • simon friend is (i think) the greatest song writer of our day, simon if you ever happen to read this i would like to thank you for all your music!

  • ...Great vid...nice work....volpe

  • the image at 1:12 is particularly striking

  • I agree with this striking image. I mean, all of it is good, but you know, there are certain images that will never leave your mind, and well...it shouldn't. We should never forget.

  • i love his humble 'cheers' at the end!

    bloody brilliant song.

  • Simon Friend has one of the best voices in the business. The dude should release a solo LP at some point.

  • really nice job

  • Awesome
