Snow Patrol - Shut Your Eyes (Live Earth)

[jenbluedog]

Love it

[Godessa9shrek]

Snow Patrol is our answer to Hell. hello!

[Baschkedball]

You can see in his eyes, he is giving so much energy in this song, but his voice is still soft.

[Esel71]

...so simple, so coooool, so fantastic!

[superstitious08]

Amazement!

[isabelunitazul]

I just love them!!!

[klongyaw7]

The singer reminds me a bit vocally of Colin Blunstone of the Zombies in his younger days (Tell Her No,Time of the Season,etc).Great song.

[cyyytr0n]

This riff is out of this world .. when music can takes you away like this way <3 ...

[00bliss99]

Anyone that can play the guitar & sing with their eyes closed at the same time deserves a thumbs up. Plus, this is a great song... Oh, let's not forget Gary wrote it too!!!

[anothertwilightmom]

Haha his eyes are really shut

[Gudhilde1]

only snow patrol can lead me through my darkest days love these guys

[noxamanda11]

@Gudhilde1 Indeed.

[Vorexxam]

GODLIKE !

[zaccds]

How did I go so many years without hearing this song? My music collection is now more complete with this song.

[Alwaystuned]

The guitar is like Thom Yorkes main axe.

[eeedeebee]

@Alwaystuned. i had forgotten how tremendous this performance is/was. i first heard this song (studio cut) on KLBJ (Austin) --- don't laugh, but i almost had to pull off to the side of the road --- for some reason, it really impacted me. surely, a major portion of the impact is the lyrical content. how beautiful are these groupings of words? : )

Gary is fucking awesome! Saw him live a couple of days ago, they opened for U2! And wow, he could really make the crowd sing with him! And he was fucking hilarious!

[JenNechan]

Gary with this hair... Wow, i love he ^^

[tiddleto2te]

snow patrol are obsesed with eyes and cars

[Mechelle68]

*smirks at Pyrofreak*

Gary and the guys will be so crushed to hear it, I'm certain.

Never thought about it before, but since you mentioned it, yeah....Nathan looks a lil bit like Toby (sp?).

GREAT performance by a GREAT band for a GREAT cause!

[Pyrofreak321]

i just lost a lot of respect for this band for playing at that nonsense concert

[chrysallis161190]

why would live earth be a nonsense concert?

[booze4tbaby]

Because Bob Geldoff (?) is a c**t, but it is for a good cause aswell as him trying to stay in the limelight, and why would you lose respect for someone playing a gig you tit? That's what bands do.

[dr05guitar]

anyone else think the lead guitarist on the right looks a bit like Tobey Macguire (Spiderman) ?

[bertpaesbrugghe]

zaaalig

[mattboybrettle29]

i bet he can play yyz!! rush r good but these guys are awesome and ive seen em both in concert snow patrol are way better

[skypilot0077]

Man there's another left handed rickenbacher in the world other than mine..Cool...I'll bet he cant play YYZ ????

[thevictorgreat]

The best band in the world!

[markwatty]

They are scottish because they formed there thats the biggest amount of balls they are all from NORTHERN IRELAND, Bangor... therefore its an irish band!!!

[Onetreehillroxloads]

2 of them Are scottish actually:) But damn-They've done ireland proud!!!=]

[Tobyscholl]

good singing voice

[toscp1978]

It is a scottish band.

[sallyishyper]

no they are irish

[toscp1978]

they formed the band in Dundee,Scotland.

they are based in Glasgow.

so the "band" is Scottish, even if they`re Irish.

RIGHT??

[sallyishyper]

they formed in glasgow because it was origionally a university band. They are still Irish but i can see where you are comming from :)

[dyerlegend]

if your born and raised in england (for example) then go to uni in wales and meet some other english people who want to start a band.. the band is not welsh.

[toscp1978]

True.

[ChrisPlugged]

So where did the money from this go? I did't feel a change in temperature.

[HotCanadianBoyz]

Ohh, cool, that you!

[fleshablesha]

Sweet, thank you! :)

[HotCanadianBoyz]

I love Snow Patrol, but are they American or no?

[JanaHobo]

hi,

no, they are Irish.

[nidisha]

Irish and Scottish :)

[soundlikeFabian]

great song we play it in our band

[scottvalor]

The thing about this song is that it has everything that should be a world wide hit. Right length, enough hooks, very very very well produced (mixed, overlays, etc.). I'm surprised it hasn't had more mainstream play in the U.S. So much of their other music is compared to Coldplay. This is a gem that should be remembered...

[linkinmourad]

nice video

[denisebrown1956]

songs just don't get much better than this one.

good LORD.

this is so beautiful and profound AND perfectly performed.

[jamesbluntfan]

Oh, I'm a new fan of their, and I can't stop to listen their songs! I don't know why didn't I realise them so far. :) LOVE them!

[abnkk1]

The same thing happened to me. I am completely addicted to youtube and listening to them about 90% of the time.

[danslay]

i love this song

:)

[79gonzo]

Perfect lyrics, perfect tune. This song will live forever!

[reebz86]

what kind of guitar is he playing? a fender tele? strat?

[Soderita]

he's using the guitar '72 Telecaster Deluxe'

[Shrubbs]

Tele

[reebz86]

what kind of guitar is that? fender tele? strat?

[danslay]

i love this song
