@fmallis I normally try to name successors too, but with U2 wrapping up a $700M USD tour (highest grossing in history) and still fairly young (Bono turning 50), let's name a successor when U2 is done. For now, U2 is the U2 of this generation. Possibly THE greatest band ever, IMO.
@mojoburger Fair enough. Regardless, it is just an opinion. I was pointing out that I disagree with the U2/Coldplay comparisons. U2 is one of my all time favortie bands so my comment wasn't meant to disparage.
But if we're talking all-time greats, I'd go with Led Zeppelin.
this is pretty much my favorite band of this century. they're different and they certainly aren't sellouts like the garbage that i hear in the american radio. i'm american and i agree with what others have to say: american music is starting to suck. how did we go from ppl like elvis, michael j., james brown, celine dion, whitney houston ect. to shit like kesha, lil wayne, drake, katy perry, justin bieber, miley? oh and i forgot, their music/lyrics/vocals are raw, not fake.
your music is one of the reasons that make me get out of bed every morning.. love you guys.. and the only thing i can say is "thank you for the music" !!
I still can't believe that I met Gary last saturday when I went to a Snow Patrol concert! What a show! Stood in first row, it was amazing! They're are incredibly talented in my opinion. -And Gary is just such a great guy! His coolness kinda radiated from him! Whoa! So surreal! LOVE SNOW PATROL! :D <3
I love all his music - and 'just say yes' is the best and it gets better every day.
He has opened my soul and i have listed to JSY and it makes my tears role Its all sublime and and if t=they do more of what they do i'm alive n happy..i break my limbs on alchohol too dude ...too much, love ya
Bless him- a lovely man and superb (and prolific) songwriter. All of their albums contain real gems, as do both Reindeer Section cds. A Hundred Million Suns is simply stunning throughout. And playing live they are so, so amazing!
I hate when people tag them as repetitive because that only shows that those people haven't ever heard a Snow Patrol album from beginning to end.
Snow Patrol are a truly great band. I love that they grew and learnt over the years, its so organic and live they just blow you away. Gary's banter and gorgeous smile don't hurt either :-p....here's to another 15 years!
To see a video of a guy who is the same on stage as he is off down to earth SNOW PATROL have gone from the days of POLAR BEARS UP AND UP to be one of the TOP bands we have put out on the market in this time of down turn gary shines a ray of light
Up To Now is fantastic !!!!!! Its great that they have included some songs from their first two albums which are hidden gems! i urge all Patrol fans to get a copy!!!!!
Encantador !
