Elbow - "Fugitive Motel" - LIVE

[ichabodd]

I never really understood the phrase 'tears of joy' till I started listening to Elbow. There is no band better than them for crafting seemingly uncomplicated but beautiful songs delivered with a massive emotional punch and Guy's delivery of his lyrics is majestic

[JessieAddick]

Thank you so much for sharing.Do you have the original video for their whole performance on this show cos the image of this is quite blurry.Thanks in advance.

[tommes55]

pure music !!!

[Wendellerins]

One of my fave songs by them. I truly connect with song..love it!

[johngill]

Doesn't time pass? Now they are almost the biggest band in Britatin - 2 almost sold out shows at the o2 in London coming up - that's 40,000 people!

Well deserved and they have the cop-on to cope with it all.

[AlbortRoss]

Think I actually prefer this to the album version

[monnikamiha88]

Amazing band! Guy is a huge talent :)!

[mikedep1]

@monnikamiha88 They all are! Sure Guy is amazing, but we got to give some credits to the rest of the band for creating that magical musical atmosphere surrounding the lyrics.

Even more beautiful live than on CD, i remember i saw them supporting muse in 2003 and was blown away then, but forgot about them untill recently, this song is so moving, utter musical genious.

[nivag2508]

Ah man I was gonna tell and I've totally forgot, all I can remember is they finished on Scattered Black and White. Being honest my mind was blown by then. Have a great time, I did.

[mrpuniverse2]

won the brit award for best band 2008 and it was about time too.

[Gilmourisgreat]

up against some tough competition though with radiohead on the top of their game too. I think its on the up for british music again finally XD

[renoo27]

Indeed. It's great they're finally getting the recignition they deserve.

[cqlatuu]

RJD2 made a great remix of this. More somber, perhaps, but great nonetheless.

[danex1009]

grounds for divorce is the best song they mode though lol

[gordieK]

Better version than on the album. Garvey's voice on album is too low! It's their best instrument!

[pcoll04]

They are still criminally under-rated. One of the very best bands around today.

[georgewhufc14]

agreed

[tphife2008]

Do we really want them to go big time though? I want this band to stay pure!

[elfarinn]

What a great song. What a great band!

[slappedcheek]

love it............nuff said

[judyatpalmetto]

Please give us newbies some background about them!

[highwireman]

no background needed my friend. just immerse yourself in the genius of it all. youtube "elbow live" and go from there.... pointers: switching off, station approach, powder blue and the ever there. off the new album; a track called "brambles". sheer, sheer, utter brilliance....

[HostileImpulse]

"brambles"??? I'm having trouble finding it.

[highwireman]

my mistake. demo was called brambles. the finished album track is called "Some Riot". Tis mint.

[HostileImpulse]

your absolutely right, thanks!

[Turquoisevoice]

One of the best bands to come out of England for years ... A cast of thousands is such a good album

[Liekkk]

Amazing band, icredible voice and the music is just unbelievable... Very emotional as well, they're even better live than on the albums!

[westofsouth]

grate live band

[nevesian]

brilliant band!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Ververeid]

[philofelinist]

I love this song.
