[msw0322]

Love this song, definitely one of their more underrated songs.

[sLidutzu]

Snow Patrol - Open your eyes

Snow Patrol - Shut your eyes

Snow Patrol stop teaching me how to blink X(

[32smore]

Ironic that they have a song called open your eyes too ;)

[EMILIEelskerjordbaer]

23 people shut their eyes and didn't hit the right button.

[JRCrowley]

When I first head this song I thought it was Pearl Jam.

[bogeys37]

@JRCrowley if u thought this was pearl jam u need to get your ears checked. nothing against sp but not even close to pearl jam

[lolmonster1000]

OMG i just got an add asking " could you be justin beibers ideal girl"

*£4.50 a week

O.o .......WTF

[cdude247]

[xxDREAMxXxSEEKERxx]

"Snow Patrol - Shut Your Eyes", nice.

^_^

[andrewsaccount09]

[swimm3r137]

@inauspiciousominous ur dumb

[kagome7317]

I heard this song in Jcpenny 

[beautyjunkie2013]

Is this song from a movie?

it sounds ridiculously familiar!

[baileaelizabeth]

@beautyjunkie2013 It's from The Last Song. :D

[Retrocyclers]

@beautyjunkie2013 The song has a BIG late 60's vibe which is Great! The 60's vibe might remind you of songs by the band America (Ventura Highway, Horse With No Name) or even Crosby Stills Nash and Young. The lead guitar part (1:17) sounds slightly reminiscent of the lead from 'Anenome' by The Brian Jonestown Massacre.

[bluedotfelixgmailcom]

i feel lyke im flying wen i listen to this song

[DeedleDeedleDumplin]

One of my top five S.P. tracks. Luv Luv Luv it and always will...I just picture sitting beside a roaring fire in a mountain cabin as the snow gently falls outside....illuminated only by moonlight. Man, this song takes me far away from this Hell...

[AsiandontmeanChinese]

Snow Patrol, what do you want me to do? 'Shut your eyes', you say, but then you tell me 'open your eyes'. Which is it?!

[mbrugx03]

this is some high quality windows movie maker.

[ForeverLoveMexX]

ive been looking for this song for months thanks to the last song :))) and snow patrol is a sick band

[terraitya]

@theclownslayer yup, they are awesome. check out their other tracks too

[p4o4g4g4y4w4o4l4f4]

[lonna250]

[Duenderelojero]

[xXxMaartyeah]

[RealBloppy]

@xXxMaartyeah The album is "Eyes Open"

[xXxMaartyeah]

[robin17171]

How ironic, open your eyes and shut your eyes.

[skeight976]

SOME WHERE COLD AND CAKED IN SNOW

[xRedheadgirl]

this relaxes me.

[Nielsfilmpje2]

@xRedheadgirl it makes me wild;)

[freedomleft]

i thought SP_ did an official video for this song but i cant find it. great haunting song.

[hyoncake]

i love the lead singer's voice.

[xdeathblitzx]

mmm i love this song! i heard it while my sister was watching last song and i was instnatly addicted to this song!

[mathiken]

with Pukkelpop in Belgium, snow patrol had taught us to sing 'shut your eyes and sing to me' and even when they wanted to start 'just say yes', the whole crowd was still singen shut your eyes! :-D

and when they left and the concert was over, we wanted them to come back and play more, and so we began singing shut your eyes instead of we want more ...

It was a piece of magic =D

[flarentos]

i live 5 miles from bangor where snow patrol are from and im proud to be within 100 miles of these amazing musicians

[TheNightGemini1718]

Love the vid and song. Where did you get the pic at 1:08?

[SonnyGmanproductions]

I thought it was cool, some nice images

[Pace143]

My favorite new song to clean to!!! The house sure looks spiffy today, wish I could say the same for me. Ooh wee, crank up the Bose !!! XOXO

[Kasiulkaaa89]

@Pace143 xDDDDDDDDDDD

[medic45k]

This song caught my ear when it first hit the airwaves. I heard it first on Alice 97.3. It has taken on a whole new light now. Great Song!

[pictureisup1]

Neil young influence?

[trailbikerharo]

love that guitar that starts at 1:17 so awsome.

[sweetgurl600]

sometimes..u just need to close ur eyes wen u see someone u love turn into a monster..

i hate men..first my dad ..then my brother now him?

id rather stay single then start another relationship wid anyone now..

[Vulgarth1]

By the way, It's "spin the picture", not "I spin the big chair". 

[Aliciaaxx1]

@Vulgarth1 true

[joostmoethetweten]

[ketorin12]

I heard this song in Petco shopping for my cat.

[CruelCat9]

:)hmm...

[puglover50]

Hypnotic

[suniltje]

isn't this melody based on a musical?

[salesmantim]

This song grooves just close your eyes and go somewhere but here.When I am down I love listening to this.It brings me back up.Tim Nielsen

[lisamaia1]

[MomokoTheKillerKitty]

Great Song! :D

[PrafDeStele17]

@explodingbarrel2

lol, then how do you know the slideshow was nice ? :P

[michal13210]

[BennyM97]

@myotis034 Yes!

[JBSiistas]

I Love this Song.

This Song Comes in the Film The Last song.

♥

[crystaliised]

uh schönes lied zum dasitzen, nachdenken&träumen♥

[dggfhdfghdf]

Don't U hate it when a song is so shitty is pisses you off? Well this is one of them.

Sorry folks, THIS SONG FUCKIN BLOWS!!!

And when I hear it at work I get really disappointed. Because of the lack of effort that goes into making music these days.

This is a repetitive bullshit song. End of story. I had to pop in and say this.

[TheFlaxenFox]

@dggfhdfghdf Don't U hate it when people seize on teh keyboard to make a user name and don't go through the effort to speak in full sentences?

Music appreciation is relative by nature. Sometimes the feeling of sparsity lent to a piece by using fewer notes fits what the artist is trying to say better than intricate complexities. Kindly remember that your tastes in music are not absolute truth to the rest of society.

[dggfhdfghdf]

@TheFlaxenFox

Actually there's a story behind my user name. Since 07 now. Urs is older though.

And are you gonna change the subject and turn grammer/sentance structure Nazi on me? PLease don't. You know damn well this aint an Essay.

And BULLSHIT this is a shitty song with no melody. SIMPLE does not mean bland and repetitive. Ive listened to everything from Nirvana to Hindi music for Christ sake. And have been in countless bands since I was 13. I know good music bro, and this aint it. lol

[TheFlaxenFox]

@dggfhdfghdf Ha! Just checked your profile. I see we're at odds on a lot of things.

I've studied music theory extensively and I play four very different instruments with great proficiency, however, I'm not going to use this to assert my opinions as facts, because music appreciation is, as I've stated before, RELATIVE by nature. I usually don't listen to mainstream crap myself, but I'm tired of assholes thinking their opinions are more valid than other people's. Thanks.

[dggfhdfghdf]

@TheFlaxenFox

You're very welcome :)

[Gigi64Marie1]

@dggfhdfghdf What is?

[dggfhdfghdf]

@Gigi64Marie1

Haha, It's all personal preference. But this one really got under my skin at work.

[joeyw1970]

shut your eyes i,m gonna pleasure you ....methinks

[KickItDevAndLiz]

haha yeah what the hell am i doing here i should be on stand-up :p

[ShelovesHoLLywood]

Genius

[TheBloodsisters96]

Richtig cooles Lied! Ich liebe es so...♥

[sweetpoison46]

lol right! i agree with KickItDevAndLiz lol

[kbrodaa]

from the last song :)

[daniellem33]

shut your eyes......so I can punch you n the face!!!

lol

[awsomemovies10]

Was this song in The Last Song?

[daniellem33]

@awsomemovies10 yes it was

[unregalito]

Singing works best with eyes closed...

[x1DutchGirl]

Haha, I got so caught up in the song that I didn't even notice the funny clip that has been made! xD It's very literaly... ;-)

[x1DutchGirl]

And the strings in the 'undertone'. The 'theeleelee' melody at 0:47 and 0:53 for example reminds me of The Matrix Theme Song, so beautiful!

[tundike555]

@x1DutchGirl theeleelee melody :) this sounds so cute!

[x1DutchGirl]

@tundike555 Haha. (A) I didn't know how else to desribe it. Do you like it too? And where are you from?

[x1DutchGirl]

Especially love the intro until 0:32. :)

[x1DutchGirl]

@LightHeartedMusician: Indeed kinda strange, but more funny. :P It probably has different meanings on the content, but this is still my favourite song of theirs. I agree with XarinothX: makes you feel sort of superiour in a vulnerable way. :)

[stephenwalls1]

You don't have to be driving to enjoy this song,just lying in bed it sounds great.

[XarinothX]

Alter.. ich Liebe dieses Lied :O ... Immer wenn ich dss höre, denke ich, ich wäre in New York oder so,.. und bin auf meinen Balkon hooooooch über der Stadt

[LightHeartedMusician]

Isn't odd how snow patrol has a song called Open Your Eyes aswell as one that's called Shut Your Eyes?

[31arctica]

prolly just coincidence

[ja1207]

@LightHeartedMusician

both of those songs are included in their album "Eyes Open"...lol

[kenk9]

@LightHeartedMusician That is because some Snow Patrol fans took it seriously. They closed their eyes but didnt open them, so Snow Patrol had to make another song so those people would open their eyes again.

[Nkl2503]

Sehr Geil ;)

[crazyyandcute101]

this song is intense while your driving thru like a rainstorm! :)

[Lotte0303]

@neeltjeloserkid

me too! For... about a year!

I love it<3

[neeltjeloserkid]

i have been looking for this song for so, so long. and i love it.

[OneHouseOneLove]

good song but the video is bull shit :D

[unregalito]

Nice Collage, great music!!

2:12 Aphex Twin...

[humpitags2013]

gaw i love snow patrol. this stuff is friggin awesome!

[CodemanDaBomb]

1:12 lol old man OPEN YOUR EYES,then close the again

[MrHakaider12]

101/100 % awsome, real E.P.I.C.

[smokeydokey1994]

you must hear"open your eyes " while driving ;D ;D

[baureihe151]

Its a cool song, and perfect when I cruise in my Firebird Pontiac ;-)

[Gigi64Marie1]

Oh my gosh, I bet. Try "The Alarm", I love to feel rain in the summertime. Great song going around the curves of the mountains here! Enjoy.

[KickItDevAndLiz]

haha that made me giggle!!.. :p x

[KickItDevAndLiz]

haha noo i agree!!

first open your eyes andd now shut your eyes? this poor girl must be confusedd joke lol, their next hit will be called "have your eyes half way open" lol TOP TUNESS THOUGH! i love snow patroll. x

[PadawanJB]

Then "Close your eyes, just half-way." :P

[GuitarOwnsDrums]

@KickItDevAndLiz haha

[fallingcorpse]

Then after that, it will be "gouge your eyes out" LOL!!!

[Gigi64Marie1]

Love this song for some odd reason. But "open your eyes", can we get a little more creative??

I agree, she is very confused.

[Gigi64Marie1]

@KickItDevAndLiz  Couldn't agree more!! ;)

[spamsdelicious]

@KickItDevAndLiz nah; next single by snow patrol will be "ok now open your eyes again: congratulations, you just blinked" ("Blink" for short)

[GayBoyJuly1996]

Seriously awesome song!!!!

[longliveluigi]

open your eyes...shut your eyes...they can't make up their mind can they? haha. i'm kidding. before i get bombarded with idiotic replies.

[superbopit]

sing this song while you drivinggg..

LOL,

:))

[CourtneyIsTheBestt]

This song is awesome!

[Iriseee]

LOVE LOVE <3

[andrayathevampire]

[pawanwwefan]

Nice song I love it and thanks for the lyrics

[FrankVuurtoren]

Very nice!!

[HUTINAK]

Never got in heavy rotation on radio air time

That's Today's radio for ya

[XxXBloodyxRosesXx]

Love this song.

"Shut your eyes and sing to me."

If you look at the track listing on their "Eyes Open" album, this song comes before "Open Your Eyes". Maybe they want us to shut our eyes while we listen to this one and open our eyes when we listen to the other one. I don't know.....But I love it.

[guitarnublet]

@XxXBloodyxRosesXx

My guess would be shutting your eyes, taking a good deep look inside of yourself, think about the world, and then open your eyes and look at the world in a different way?

[csi13x]

@XxXBloodyxRosesXx

It might be open your eyes to reality, and shut your eyes to get peace?

[thedarkness97]

That Axl Rose at 1:33?

[BEaBABY09]

naja, ich find des nervt ein bisschen...

[actrosjk]

einfach nur geil dieses lied !! hammer

[278910Forgottenseven]

This is one of my favorite songs! A very well put together song that I think they should be able to do again.

[nscol]

10/10, good song.

[eightcorona]
