I went to see U2 at Wembley stadium and Elbow supported. They sang this and even people who had never heard of them were drying their eyes. Amazing

So glad to read the comments and realize that I am not the only that this song brings to tears. It is pure musical perfection. My favorite Elbow song. The transition at 1:55 kills me every time.

wtf is it about the human condition that makes the 3:41 key shift induce goose pimples and a lump in the throat? Must be some spiritual portal opening up - but WHY/HOW? Anyway, it does it every time for me.

Get's me every time.

Thinks 'don't cry, don't cry. don't cry' then boom at 3:41secs - burst into tears.

Fuck it, this is what music should be about.
