mic christopher & glen hansard sing 'you ain't going nowhere' on grafton st

[greggles10]

If Carlsberg did cover songs, the would have stole this from Guiness...

[97d16217]

This makes life better

[sowens12]

Am I the only one who LOVES the way Glen sings "fish that walks and a dog that talks" every time he performs this song?

[gazys]

i can bet if Bob Dylan see that video he push like button

[fillip27]

dublin, in the rare old times

[vash22palm]

Lovely to come across this, from my time in Grafton Street yrs ago!

[mcstudunne]

" do you aint going nowhere or something" .........Ah yeah

[1missmizzy]

All of the people that aren't stopping to watch this must be deaf.

[Jonsey8233]

Love ye both

[LaGoonch]

Damn, what a good album they could have made together...

[ZigridTV]

LOVELY PEOPLE PLAYING LOVELY MUSIC!

[doubleg235]

A couple of blokes....real music....too far and few....thanks for keeping us entertained with your utter brilliance.

[IrishWake23]

This is what Dublin is really about

[tonykent1]

Never ceases to impress me

[Skyblue2789]

[bertieoneill]

[mirhaba]

I should go to school roght now...oh...fuck it...I'm gonna watch these videos again instead...

[cosmoK18]

Wow... that was amazing. Doing what they love... obviously because it makes them (and others) happy. I am just discovering Mic Christopher... and really taken by his music and the people he touched during his short life. Would have loved to have seen these boys busking... how real can it get. That truly is a moment in time that can't be recreated.

[AxelR111]

2:18 Glen Power:P

Cool;]

[ejayb4]

True Gents!

[cantarantino]

I almost checked of glen's whole videos for this song.. like at swell season tours or when busking on the streets.. but this one is so special and unique.. cuz Glen's best friend Mic was there and sing that song with him. "R.I.P -------- Michael Christopher"

[TheChewy2009]

RIP MIC

[donthateangels]

[berry512]

Two friends making beautiful music together. Improv at it's best, not a care in the world!

[altaltalt123]

two legends of irish music that arnt appreciated enough

[justbeaduck]

@altaltalt123 couldnt agree more!!!

[altaltalt123]

what idiot disliked this

[DiCkRiChArDz]

What a powerful duel. They harmonize really good, and can attract a crowd in the middle of a forest. It's a shame mic isn't around to create moments like this again.

[jdb79jdb79]

glen hansard is so awesome because you can tell he does music just because he loves too.. Thats too rare.

[MW2AbuseTeam]

I miss those days walking down Grafton Street and seeing the lads. I miss Mic. I miss me youth!!!

[smcguiness809]

Whata song & what guys these are... mic christopher will never be forgotten... LEGEND

[carlthegreatest]

maybe the 4 dislikes were mistakes?

[kieranhoulihan]

i see out of 163 ratings for this vid 4 people dislike it, who are these 4 people who do not know what real talent is, this is my version of heaven, i actually cant put into words who much i would love to come across these 2 legends (RIP mic) busking, it is amazing just watching it on here, imagine this in person 10 out of 10

[fredjoebubbles]

1 word! Amazing

[WeThreeBuskateers]

Just love how there is nobody there when they (start?) with this one.....

And then, by the end of the session (Suspicious Minds....I Bid You Goodnight?) there are folks everywhere going crazy....

[womanatwittsend]

Just finished watching Glen busking "Hey Day" on Grafton yesterday. A touch more than 8 years after Mic's passing. Twas an awesome friendship those two had!

[GrowlingPuppet]

[rodri63]

Mic & glen Congratulations......You sing ang play with an special force-blues....Thanks a lor Alberto

[cantarantino]

thats so sad.. Mic isnt here with us anymore .. but absolutely his songs gonna live !!!

[MonsieurCarey]

I love how natural this video feels, you can't help but get the sense that it's two really great mates just standing there havin a laugh and not really caring who stops and listens. Two of the best songwriters we've ever produced, love it lads!

[liamd2kn3]

R.I.P Mic Christopher

[didoma73]

Props to Glen for playing this tune live even 'til this day and carry on Mic's memories.

[20023697]

i keep coming back to watch this...brill!!

[womanatwittsend]

Your not the only one!

[thebluemoonriver]

i pick something up everytime i've watched this

[fngs99]

like what?

[mcbump]

Looks like you guys are having fun. 5 stars

[nintendor81]

What makes me laugh is some people just walk by not realising the 2 legends performing in front of them..........what i would have paid to be there

[teamsingstar]

AWESOME !!! I love Glen, I love Ireland, I love Dublin, I love Grafton street !!!!!

[gabiczech]

This is so nice!

[JTHMROXS]

RIP mic....you were awesome....miss your talent

[thinkcarolthink]

Love it :)

[Mariekesone]

Can't get more live...or Real gigs than this..

i love it...:-)

[rinnin]

My new favorite video. Have to watch this daily.

[oscarkev190]

what does mic say at the start?

[smurphy47]

'play you aint going nowhere so i can have a fag' id say the same thing when im busking,shows how down to earth he was i suppose lol

[oscarkev190]

ah legend haha

yeah he was really down to earth alright im from the same town as him (one of my best mates actually lives on his old road) and he is a total idol to me as a budding songwriter haha

[Scoob505]

I am happy for you that you live on that road. I would love to have met him. I love the whole community Irish musicians have. Damien Rice and Lisa Hannigan loved this guy and dedicated an album and some songs to him

[Legaleze50]

Sounds like "do, You Ain't goin' Nowhere, mate.

[downeshead08]

pure brilliant!!! love it!

[sumsalabum]

great... wish i'd been there.

[bezerkfurp8]

all these videos of this busking session on grafton keep popping up, are there anymoer?

[rockandrollkevin]

I second that....

[HolaHolitaHamigo00]

Epic.

[Legaleze50]

Amazing. I'm so happy to see that Glen has so much success with his album and film. It's sad the Mic Chistopher did not get to enjoy all the fruits of his talent. In a way, it must also be sad to Glen not to be able to share this success. I read a glowing tribute that Glen wrote about Mic shortly after he died. Their closesness was telling in the final moments of "Suspicious Minds" where Mic makes a guest appearance at a Frames concert and, at the very end makes two gestures to Glen.

[TheSpinMan]

Awesome! haha I love how he was just like "Fuck!" when his string broke and then just kept going.

[sorbix]

this is a dylan song btw

[7McDee7]

a thing of beauty

[phonemenace]

AMAZING. You can't beat Irish music!

[QueenBeeAndBabyDuck]

How long ago was this filmed, do you know?

[Xabi1]

Well it was pre-2001 anyway...Mic died in November of that year :-(

[jryanii]

man ure a legend for posting

cheers

[womanatwittsend]

Ahhhh that did my heart good. Thanks once for for yet another treasure!

[erinsg]

awesome! what year was this?

[MmmPomegranate]

Lovely. Thank you! :)

[heressShelly]

feckin brilliant

[DMC017]

Nice one!

[ilcorvojo2]

amazing... thank you.

[eduam27]

broken string =]
