  • This film is my life at present...and it has brought peace back into my lovers' heart. We will be united again very soon due to Glens-Marketas songs/voices. The soundtrack is an account of the emotions the broken-hearted suffer...the Shallow-Hearted would have wanted Glen and Marketa to "make-it" in the film...the Lovers saw Glens' passion for his' true-love and cringed to think he would waste it all on a moment of passion. Brilliant!

  • you shouldent listen to everything you hear .

    grow up or fuck off

  • Saw the film some weeks ago ...but I can't forget THIS MUSIC !! It's Great !! If anyone have some more information (a HOMEPAGE f. i. ) about these two "Supersongwriters", I'd be happy to know.

    I'm a man and could not stop to cry, when I saw the film the first time !!!!

  • all his videos are 5 stars and he's one of the few that deserve it

  • All I can say is...whoa

  • good man glen

  • The more i listen it,the more i love it.great film and MUSIC.Thanks

  • Oh feel the pain! Incredible film.

  • I'm so in love with his passion for music!! <33

  • It's true singing. It's pure, honest, not the same old boring rap.

  • Watched the D V D called Once.Wonderful little film staring Glen Hansard..Lyrics very moving and good music..Must hear more loved it!!!! Thankyou

  • this moves me so much from now on i wont pass a busker withiut giving some change

  • This is everything I wish music was for my generation, and it is everything that popular music is not.

  • That Doesn't matter.. who is better or not... i think it's about enjoying the music and focusing on the Now... just being for the music and let go anything else.. but it's just my opinion, anyway... Peace for All!

  • Glen and Mar playin' The Barbican theatre London June 3rd ! Be there !!

  • now that's some singin' of the likes not usually heard. very inspiring.

  • this song is awesome.

  • damien rice is just as good as he is

  • NO I don't think so. you are wrong.

  • I mean this is BETTER than Damien rice.

  • talent at its rawest

  • i have to swear to tell how good this song is.

  • i know exactly how that is. (:

  • Such a song is better than thousands of needless words, so deep, so moving ;( Loved the film...

  • this is such an underated film, and Glen Hansard is even more underated. Absoloutly god like he is with a guitar. And his voice....omg. just really good stuff and this song is only one of them

  • listening to this makes me very happy that the academy over-nominated enchanted for original song. because this very well could have killed once's chances of winning if it was nominated (which it should have been).

  • it´s like Damien Rice.

    I like this movie.

  • you're right.

    it sounds like something he would do.

  • you have got to be kidding me, Damian Rice isn't a patch on glen hansard

  • Damien and Glen are both Irish and in the same genre

  • this song is an angry prayer

    that got answered

    you have to listen to all the lyrics

  • when i heard this first time i was really impressed, and i'm still.

    it's really great... full of emotions...

  • Moved me to tears. What an amazing film. It inspired me greatly as a musician. To me, Once is flawless.

  • he's so passionate- i love his music just gorgeous

  • You know that the movie is going to be something special when this is at the beginning! Amazing performance of that song.

  • gives me the chills

  • outfreakingstanding

  • Cool. :)

    I love this song.

  • an truly excellant film.

    love this song in particular.

    sing it with such passion.

    does,nt give a fuck whos there or not.

    hes sooooooooo pissed of about losing his girlfriend he wrote this song for and you can see it in his face.

    was a brilliant film.all the songs in it are timeless.

    im proud to be irish.

    well done with winning the oscar for falling slowly.

  • You can be proud to be Irish... I'd be too, bur I'm German :=)

    I love this film, I really love the songs and I'm interested to learn more about Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova.

  • this powerful song admist that empty vacant street is moving.

  • this scene, playing this song to no one in particular with such passion, is such a beautiful sentiment

  • best scene, best song, best movie. Love it. Thank you for posting.

  • wow!!!!

  • Saw The Frames perform 1995 at The Spirit Store in Dundalk, Ireland, with this song and I immediately went home to buy album. I was so happy and amazed to here about the Oscar!! Fantastic!

  • I think this is probably my favorite song from the movie, although they are all fucking phenomenal. Incidentally, I've also started saying "brilliant" quite a bit since I saw this movie--and people keep giving me weird looks because of it (I'm from Kansas).

  • I actually bought the soundtrack before seeing the movie and absolutely fell in love with the music. I just saw the movie, which makes me like the songs even more, if that's even possible! This clip is great because I love how passionate Glen Hansard is when he's singing.

  • I bought the CD right after my dad told me to rent the movie, which I watched and fell in love with.

    Such raw passion in his music... which isnt what you get much of in this industry.

  • Key Word: Industry

  • what do you mean?

  • Actually, I'm from Belgium, I've heard of him. He has a band called The Frames, they aren't big, but they're a pretty well known band in the indie-scene though.

  • who has heard of this guy outside of ireland besides seeing the movie?

    its ridiculous

    artists like this dont get enough recognition

    theyre always muted by fuckin big names and money involving people who could care less

    within the first 10 minutes of the movie i was in love with it

    first time in a movie where ive actually gone looking for the songs in it

    gooesbumps in the whole song

    and when that chorus comes in i feel it and i gotta hold back tears

    simply amazing

  • ive never seeen the movie. and i dont live in ireland

    this guy is amazing :]

  • couldn't have put it better myself.

    I hate how artists who have way more potential and talent aren't given recognition because they're not "mainstream"

    the real talent is where it's not easy to find it.

    The chorus is incredible. He really puts so much emotion into his music

  • they'll be performing at bonnaroo under the name The Swell Season

  • I love everything about this song, but especially the lyrics! They're so figurative and true, and SO beautiful!

  • i started watching the movie.. and from the very beginning.. i was like.. this is golden..

    absolutely brilliant!

  • I had the exact same reaction.

  • Glen is pure Beauty...There are not very many people out there who can desplay that kind of RAW emotion to their music and lyrics and carry with such a core reaching voice. I Love The way his music Moves and touches that sacred piece within...OHH I am oh so greatful for artists like him...Beautiful...I would love to hear him live one day...

  • vintage ...vintage

  • wow, this is one of the best songs i've ever heard. this is amazing. words can't even describe it.

  • i know how you feel completely

  • you won, glen. standing applause.

  • What an amazingly passionate song.

  • Yeah, talk about goosebumps! :)

    Even more goosebumps than "I remember" by Damien Rice!

  • 1:13 .. this change give me goosebumps

  • Uhhh... yeah.

  • that transition is ridiculously amazing

  • The movie is truly inspirational. Mutual respect through emotional intimacy as opposed to physical. Music- making instead of love-making! Well Done John Carney!You pulled it off brilliantly!

  • This video is the exact definition of passion for music and song writing. Glen's singing never ceases to give myself and everyone I know chills when they see this.

    Best $20 I've ever spent on a movie.

  • Oh my gosh, my girlfriend and I just watched this film last night and it absolutely wringed my heart like a sponge. Chilling, amazing, breathtaking, and real. So many of the songs from this soundtrack I cannot listen to without choking up in tearsa anymore. My soul resonates with Glen Hansard on so many levels.

    Thank you Glen. Thank you Marketa.

  • I love how he really gets into it at the end

    its like powerfull or sumthin i don't know how to explain it

  • this is one of those movies and songs that gives me goosebumps. so amazing.

  • Brilliant.

  • My god, this movie was amazing.

  • 1:55 as well

  • What I loved is that he sang in the street just to express himself, because he didn't need the money.

    I like this song, is very emotive.

  • around 1:32 into this is when I fell in love with this song...

  • same...

  • same here. it hits you like "bam"
