The Frames - Star Star **

[66verda]

I believe in this song. I see the rainbow over the black 'n' white pictures. And I'm not drunk, I'm just feel it ! Thanks Puddies !

[pushed66]

When I'm sad, I see this great song, and search for one of my friends. I'm turning in a great mood.

Wish I was an Irish, to learn it forever.

[MultiPioca]

Great brilliant-coloured music & lyric in a black & white picture about a much more coloured life, fun, understanding, love. All from these are so simplies -thats why are so hard to explore them ....

Greetings from Eastern-Europa ! All the Puddy is my friend.

[lelencz]

The most pure lyrical voyage through our dreams with a perfect arrangements and performance. One of the most beautiful song I've ever heard.

[lelencz]

Ain't got no words for this pure lyrical voyage, with the most beautiful arrangements and performance. Maybe the most lovely song I've ever heard.

[Pterotrochej]

I love the last minute of this video. Friends on the beach, having fun, playing football, taking pictures and smoking cigarettes thinking something like - Life is good sometimes. Without a single worry

[MrRik2]

About 13 years since I first saw The Frames. This song still moves me. Thanks, boys.

[Orlypie]

I think this is my most favouritest song but i have so many favourites!!!!! i don't know how i have room for so much loving :-)

[thehardspawn]

[lp4u2008]

[Theogodz]

im so happy ive been listening to this song since 2008 :) and i just thought of watching the video i just noticed that it hits half a million ^^, this is music worthy of awards.. I bet a movie will add it and will get the recognition it deserves :)

[txitxonte]

GRACIAS CARMENCITA

[AuntPearlsGlorybox]

Makes me proud to have Irish descendants! Hang on I mean ancestors!

[valkiriforce]

When watching old videos like this it makes me wonder where I was at the time this music video was first being recorded and what I was doing at the time and how I was missing out on this stuff.

[Sameez2]

Marry me Glen Hansard!

[sethelethh]

Glen Hansard is like a god to my soul, each time it hears a song from him, it starts raining in my heart..

[nigahigafredsmosh]

I am so proud to be Irish :D

[shrunkenfun]

amazing song



[shadesybhoy]

The bold walk early in this video is totally at odds with the gentle music.

[blinkreunite]

Always turns me on!!!

[lovepavel]

i love this song! it is so beautiful! <3

[KeithGreville]

Classic...makes me proud to be Irish....

[SuzakuAvenuePush]

23 dislikes - people who just go onto every video on youtube and dislikes it cos they are fat greasy guys sitting at a computer who will never do anything with their lives

[flyawayhome3]

@SuzakuAvenuePush or, alternatively, they didn't like the song.

[vintagesid80]

a band with a matter of words that represent themselves in ways to people either bringing them to tears or making them feel an emotion of past memories they have lived, i love this band to me theyre a band of pure beauty and thats the way it shall stand :)

[AlanClinton123]

its been a long struggle for Glen ..glad to see him doing so well!

[stae7]

23 people can't see stars

[RozeKomkommer]

[viento00]

I wish I was Irish

[TheMusic944]

Honestly who would dislike this? It's so beautiful.

[tawmbout]

23 people don't want to shine.

[stacylynn3902]

I would kill to see them perform live!

[irishandy79]

seriously!!!!.................­.....23 dislikes>...are people having a laugh.....fucking hip hop mother fuckers or something thinking its a different song?

[cannonball3dr]

Seen this live last night for the first time since I was 16 maybe?? When they first toured the states with Damien.. Anyway it was fantastic and Glenn is such a class act. Wonderful show. Just as good as the last. (which with the combo of Damien was the best night of my life!)

[Homeward29]

guys if ye like the frames check out this new dublin band, india 9 nine. Put india 9 nine into youtube and watch the video, great stuff

[leibelle16]

Brilliant. Love it. :)

[sweeneysdominatrix]

This is one of my fave Frames songs.

I remember being asked to write out the lyrics of any song that popped into our heads in English class years ago and i wrote out this.

It speaks about restlessness to me.

I can relate. :)

[juleinthesky]

Beautiful song. Glen id the best!

[lt081]

best slow song ever. period.

[Milotita1]

sounds like a village version of Radiohead music to me...

[seth2186]

[kabluwi]

@seth2186 Sadly

[janghiskhan]

[cloverk00]

[CottonEyedJoe1803]

@bannanasheep I can't wait to hear the rest of the songs him and Damien Rice wrote together Leave is unreal!!! Damien Rice Bruce Springsteen and Glen. The three best songwriters in history

[Specwolfe]

Epic. (Pwned npc223)

[lozzybozzy234]

Alright their good. I Liked falling slowly. Do they really have to make all their other songs depressing? It's a bit much.

[becsy1290]

your face is a bit much, shut up a your face! i hate people like that. your clearly not able to enjoy all music so stop sharing your opinion with all music lovers.

[JeannieBeannieBoo]

at 1.53 on this clip... does anyone else hear a cow mooing??!!!! I think i'm losing my mind....

[Specwolfe]

Yeah, I heard it

[bammbiieee]

haha i heard the cow too lol

[smurphy47]

brillant, thats it, nothing more nothing less

[cormacf1]

my favourite of their songs

[radagast1]

I got into this band when nizlopi got to number one with the jcb song. Colin Murray said when he heard that he felt guilty about not playing the frames more on his show. 3 years later glen hansard won an oscar and nizlopi are where? Great guy, humble gentleman. Great film. Love his dad's character.

[Lindaofthepinda]

*You're flat on your back again* teeheehee! :P

[xxkaiiteexx]

This Band is "epic" in your face npx223 x]

[UsedDoor]

The lyrics are just beautiful!

I am a new fan of the frames. I've only heard very few of their songs (the first ever I heard was falling slowly), but I think I am going to fall in love with them! =D

[NornIron444]

Great! The Frames are very good. This song live is class..Keep it up boys.

[aishling2k8]

i love this song =)

[PinkGum32]

This is the definition of Epic Awesome-ness.

[npc223]

no it isnt, will people please stop mis-using the word epic. this music is "great" not "epic"

[lilmunch64]

no, they're right. i just looked up epic in the dictionary, this was the exact, word for word definition.

[daniswhopper]

everyones entitled to label it to however it suits them not everyone loves the same music

[shieldings]

Yeah, and I'm fed up with people using the word "cool" even when referring to things that are quite obviously hot!

I blame the parents!

[nlm1980]

i thought dance the devil was the second album, fitzy being the first. What did i miss? Its a great song though hey! First time i saw them at dolans i was in awe.

[irishmusiccentral]

their first album was called "Another Love Song", released in 1992 on Island Records. They were dropped from the label and then went on to record "Fitzcarraldo" themselves in 1995.

[nlm1980]

Ha... More fool Island Records. Tanx for info.

[jrcjr68]

there are no trains that run over the brooklyn bridge. they get off a train and change to another in brooklyn.

[ziggythesoundguy]

der album set list is fuckin brill all live set! and wit lay me down day do bit of ring of fire for like a bridge of d song amazin it is

[jackylee1988]

i think this song expresses a tiny commen feeling which is so hard to describe! life~brilliant!!!

[jambotheteddy]

fookin brilliant

[Shrubbs]

Yeah Yeah! I have that track

[release840211]

excellent :-)

[gonzoqueen]

This question might sound really stupid but does anyone know where the video on the bridge is filmed? I've seen the electrical post (? not sure exactly what it is called) that seems to have oil bursting out of it on the cover of the novel Requiem for a Dream. If someone could let me know where this is that'd be great :)

[GreenKab]

the video description says New York.

[Shrubbs]

Yes its from New York, I should know all the places are familiar to me including the rail lines

[Legaleze50]

The Brooklyn Bridge to Coney Island. Since they wind up in Coney Island, it has to be the Brooklyn Bridge that they cross, regardless of what train line went there in 1999. It's actually a long ride and a long ride just over the bridge. All of the amusement area of Coney Island is to be torn down and redone, leaving only the roller coaster, this year. The thing with the "oil bursting" is actually and old parachute ride, also to be torn down.

[Legaleze50]

Trying this again. It's the Brooklyn Bridge to Coney Island, probably on the "N" or "Q" train. A long ride and a long ride over the bridge. The amusement area of Coney Island is to be torn down this year and only the roller coaster will remain. The thing with the "oil bursting" is an old parachute ride. Also to be torn down this year, if not already torn down.

[ikspekkie]

the first time i heard this song was on a holiday in Ireland, we got a lift from two drunk and stoned Irishmen who were driving like crazy. When this song played everything seamed so surreal, we forgot how afraid we were, but we remembered this song

[awchaboo]

fucking love this stuff! i found this band, i think they're irish, doing similar stuff. they're called tidal district, i only listened to their song aces but it's deadly!

[slowlyupward]

I suspect that you are unashamedly plugging here!

The use of the word deadly gives you away as being from Ireland I am afraid!

Being Irish I think this is funny!

[seansheerin2008]

iv seen this song done 10 times up the rA

[volcanita]

awesome.

[elena14elena]

amazing video.

love the song, but the video... it's great!

[diarkenoody]

I do a fairly decent cover of this song. It's on my page,please check it out!

[verdunforest]

Wow, this is such a great song. I saw Glen perform it at a Swell Season about a week ago and was completely moved. Sounds melodramatic but it's true...

[13TheDemon13]

Amazing. I love The Frames. I saw Once, loved the music from that and that got me into the Frames... It's my favourite movie, I'm so glad I saw it. Though, I kind of prefer the live version of this song :)

[bobby3mhs]

The music from Once is great, but The Frames are much better than Swell Season. Not even close.

[eldunne]

They are great....one of my fav songs ever..love Glen..

[articzeniek]

Have you seen a movie 'Once'?... The songs from it are even better than this! If it can be better!... Have a good one!

[gonzoqueen]

I just discovered them through Damien Rice :) They're lovely.

[XxkellyxXxmwahxXx]

i am ian i love this

[macourtk]

One of Ireland's best bands...

[BunnyofLore]

I just heard of this band from one of my friends and they are so gorgeous, thanks for putting this up!

[ridesthewave]

wow, i can't believe i only learned about the existence of this band yesterday when i went to watch once. i certainly have a lot of catching up to do:)

[irishmusiccentral]

you have a *LOT* of catching up to do!

[ridesthewave]

so looking forward to it!!!

[thebrunette]

wow

[LowryMcGann]

Wow..every song by this group is amazing!

[gretgael1]

"make art, make art"......you first kid!

[dansuzuki250]

what an amazing song!!

[Solumic]

This band rocks!

[udbhav1983]

fanatubulous!!

[HMichal87]

Teach me how to listen to songs by Glen, The Frames and Marketa. It's about immediate feelings, love, emotions...I'm impressed.

[blue128eyedkk]

i have offically feel in love..simply amazing!

[AoifeLurvsyou]

Omg i thought i was just making up the willy wonka bit!!!

[Rpc197]

I just came across this song because i was looking into Damien Rice's cover "I still havent found what i'm looking for"

Midway through he veers from U2's lyrics into this song, and then ends with a portion of his own lyrics. Damien (who is also Irish) is a great artist that I enjoy listening to, even better i fell into the Frames. Anyone have some songs from them that you'd suggest? Thanks.

~Ryan

[per2]

both albums 0 and 9 from damien are great

glen and damien = swell music

u can also try jack johnson

[irishmusiccentral]

I think he was looking for other songs from The Frames.. I'd suggested Star Star, Angel At My Table, Red Chord, Revelate, Pavement Tune, Dream Awake, Perfect Opening Line, Seven Day Mile....

[Rpc197]

Yea I was looking for some other good tunes by the Frames (Already have all of Damien's Music). Thanks for getting back to me I'll look into the songs you listed.

[irishmurray]

my fav is fake , simple and complete

[gmaskey]

Angel at my table is a great song and my favourite at the min is what happens when the heart just stops. To be honest it is really difficult to pin point cause most of teh Frames songs are fantastic! U shoudl get urself the album set list, but again all their albums are great!

[chris2404]

After he sings Star Star he goes into a different song called Everybody Wants by another great Irish singer song writer called Paddy Casey, check him out.

[cormacf1]

the frames mabye the greatest irish rock band at the moment

classic track

[stez408]

you could be right. he's got a very distinct voice that i love. he's an excellent singer, even live. which is very rare these days.

[gmaskey]

I agree, have been following them for a few years now and been to a good few of their gigs and they never fail to absolute blow me away.

[stez407]

yeah!

so true!

i love them and i love the movie "once."

and what i love more is how him and marketa finally got their well deserved oscars!

[DFLOOD29]

the live version they do is much better, with the Willy Wonka sample, great song

[everlastlove]

i love this song, it reminds me of a chance i took even though i failed i still would take the chance a hundred times over caus she ment and still means more than words will ever be able to describe to the world thanks glen for the help,

[tobid3]

great song, i fell asleep.

[stefinda]

it´s great.... Czech republic rulezzz!! ;)

[DoctorPynk121]

It Doesn't Get Any Better Than This. I Love This Song, It Is Instantly My Favorite. The Lyrics Are So Strong. It Means Alot To Me And I'm Glad That Posted It, Arigato Gozaimasu ^^

[northgambit]

such a great song, I LOVE IT!!!! Thank you for postin it.

[0ohlalaA]

[sbox847]

Delighted for Glen and the success of his film 'Once' here in the states.

Seen the Frames in Marly Park and in Edinburgh aswell, always give a 100%.

They have been truly dedicated to their music and deserve every success!

[vcelakuvmozek]

The Frames based in Prague, Czech republic, irish-czech success :)

[GetMeTheHellOutaHere]

Effing beautiful.

Star Star...

[marknaomi8]
