Passenger Busking in Perth over a few separate occasions. This is the first time I've tried cutting together different live performances of the same song. Hope you enjoy!
In one occasion I was there! "This decent young man" was busking near Myer. I didn't know who he was but I liked his voice. I bought the CD! He handed it to me himself. Then in 2013 I was in Paris when I heard "Let Her Go" played again and again on the radio. The voice and the name sound familiar to me. When I got home I searched the cd and found it! How luck could strike!!! GBU, Mike!
Should of signed him to a six figure, six record deal. This kid has the drive, the spirit, the cleanly ness of Kurt Cobain, and really good drug dealer.......
People walk by every day unhappy, and then go home and turn on their television in hopes that it will make them happy. Watching fake news has made them this way. This song brings tears to my eyes every time l watch and listen to it. Golden Goodness my friends💟
Incredibly difficult to put yourself out there and just fucking own it. Every single person that walked on by made this so much richer. They either ignored or were oblivious to his word.
I have watched this so many times. And each time my heart breaks for the homeless woman in the background. Here's hoping he shared his funds from that performance
I remember when I first heard him sing that in my town, he wasn't famous yet, and I just stood there amazed and connected with every single word he sang, it was magical, I always come back to this song and especially this version of it. I remember at the time how the emotions of this song perfectly resonated with what I felt at that time and they still do to this day.
Got goosebumps at the end, why weren't more people showing appreciation?? Even if I had to be somewhere important I would have stopped to listen to him
i found video of Passenger by accedent. I was greifing the passing of my wife. Heard "let her go" and became a fan and then got courious as to what other music he had. Today i am a fan for life. Thank you Passenger
3 yrs ago..when i hit 27.... I bumped into this song, then was when i knew my life is meaniful...this song actually made me appreciate my skills more...that day i promised myself to always get better..
Several years ago, I had been stuck on the "classic rock carousel" listening to the same old stuff over and over. It got to the point that I had thought music had died. I am so very glad I was wrong, because it is so very much alive and just so filled with life.
I'm glad he's getting more popular. In Portland we were still screaming for one more song after the encore. He really has the best stage presence I've ever seen and a video just doesn't capture it.
Just wanted to say, I'm about to go into rehab and then residential trauma treatment, and this is the song I chose to describe where I'm at (I changed 27 to 37). I've been running since I was ten. I love the fear and vulnerability on your face as you sing this. The "growing new fears" is what I'm up against right now.
Love this song! There are quite a few comments complaining that people just walked by him, but I felt there was a lot of appreciation in the air. Sometimes, when I walk by a busker, I want to stop but I'm already late for where I'm supposed to be. :) I thought I saw several stop and really listen intently. They may have walked past camera range, but I'm betting they hung around to hear the end of the song. I'm so thankful when I hear this kind of talent and thought.
ahhh...had goosebumps watching this again...and it had the same effect live. he builds the end of the song sooo sooo well!!! it freaks me out!! in a good way. Cheers John.
27 years, 27 years old Only thing I know, the only thing I get told I gotta sell out if I want to get sold Don't want the devil to be taking my soul I write songs that come from the heart I don't give a fuck if they get into the chart, or not Only way I can be, is to say what I see And have no shadow hanging over me [Hook] I don't know where I'm running but I know how to run Cause, running's the thing I've always done I don't know what I'm doing but I know what I've done I'm a hungry heart, I'm a loaded gun [Verse 2] 27 years, 27 years now Only thing I know, I know that I don't know how To please everybody all of the time Cause everybody's always fucking changing their minds A little bit faded, a little bit jaded Don't want to stop, won't be persuaded To write words I can't believe in To see my face on a video screen [Hook] I don't know where I'm running but I know how to run Cause, running's the thing I've always done I don't know what I'm doing but I know what I've done I'm a hungry heart, I'm a loaded gun Oh oh... [Verse 3] 27 years, 27 years done Written 600 songs, only 12 get sung 87,000 cigarettes have passed through these lungs And every single day I wish I'd never smoked one A week brushing my teeth and a week getting my haircut 8 years sleeping, I'm still tired when I wake up A whole year eating and I still lost weight fuck 5 proper girlfriends and 5 messy breakups 27 birthdays, 27 new years 30,000 quid, just so I could have a few beers Ever dying old hopes, ever growing new fears Don't know where I'm going, but I know how I got here [Hook] I don't know where I'm running but I know how to run Cause, running's the thing I've always done I don't know what I'm doing but I know what I've done I'm a hungry heart, I'm a loaded gun

this man is ridiculous! he's out of this world. just perfect.
From singing in the streets for a few dozens people to singing in concerts attended by thousands!
Mike, you are simply amazing!
And people just walk by....
People walk by every day unhappy, and then go home and turn on their television in hopes that it will make them happy.
Watching fake news has made them this way.
This song brings tears to my eyes every time l watch and listen to it.
Golden Goodness my friends💟
Incredibly difficult to put yourself out there and just fucking own it.
Every single person that walked on by made this so much richer.
They either ignored or were oblivious to his word.
I think that this song and this video show who Passenger really is
how can people actually be so blinded
they're just passing by ;(
best musician for me honestly !
I have watched this so many times. And each time my heart breaks for the homeless woman in the background. Here's hoping he shared his funds from that performance
Perseverance really paid off. He is the best.
I really want to tell him how thankful I am ... his songs helps me to get through bad days and motivate me to go through a better tomorrow
I remember when I first heard him sing that in my town, he wasn't famous yet, and I just stood there amazed and connected with every single word he sang, it was magical, I always come back to this song and especially this version of it.
I remember at the time how the emotions of this song perfectly resonated with what I felt at that time and they still do to this day.
A true talent. Outstanding performance.
How is anyone walking past him? So amazing
Got goosebumps at the end, why weren't more people showing appreciation?? Even if I had to be somewhere important I would have stopped to listen to him
real humble beginnings. look at you now Michael. you should be proud of yourself. i wouldn't have walked past if i heard this. pure magic
I'm watching this again and again ....awesome!
this is the best version of this song i can find! the emotion in it is amazing!
look at performance at pink pop 2013
Indeed, the performance of this song on pinkpop is epic as well. 🙏🏻
Seriously can't get enough of him aye!
i'm going to see him live on monday and i'm not sure how to cope with how talented he is!
i found video of Passenger by accedent. I was greifing the passing of my wife. Heard "let her go" and became a fan and then got courious as to what other music he had. Today i am a fan for life. Thank you Passenger
this guy is outstanding, reminds me of pete townshend solo work, lot af aggression with so much talent.
3 yrs ago..when i hit 27.... I bumped into this song, then was when i knew my life is meaniful...this song actually made me appreciate my skills more...that day i promised myself to always get better..
this man and his words are really out of this world !
Hell of song!!! Play on brother!!!
Several years ago, I had been stuck on the "classic rock carousel" listening to the same old stuff over and over. It got to the point that I had thought music had died. I am so very glad I was wrong, because it is so very much alive and just so filled with life.
love how the people want to walk past but still stay because they can't resist his voice
It makes me happy the way that I know they're getting trapped in the same web of obsession that I'm in right now.
I love how even some of those 'busy' business people stop and listen to him. He has an amazing talent!
Seen him a T In The Park the other day, he was bloody amazing! He's so funny as well - that's always a bonus! 😁
Brimming with Talent - Can identify with most of Passenger's material !! :) Huge thumbs up :)
this song is so good
I'm glad he's getting more popular. In Portland we were still screaming for one more song after the encore. He really has the best stage presence I've ever seen and a video just doesn't capture it.
All about the music ... No1 else like him around !!
I love this song so much! He needs to put it on an album already, gaaah
Still listening in 2021, the best rendition x
It's amazing to see where this guy is now compared to only a few years ago
how can anyone walk away...he's tooooooo gooood!
straight fire all day! I love you Mike.
Just wanted to say, I'm about to go into rehab and then residential trauma treatment, and this is the song I chose to describe where I'm at (I changed 27 to 37). I've been running since I was ten. I love the fear and vulnerability on your face as you sing this. The "growing new fears" is what I'm up against right now.
oh also you look a bit like Brad Pitt at one point. only hotter obvs. Can Brad Pitt even sing?
love
Awesome video and performance! Salute from Romania
Great video and sound! (oh and obviously great song, one of his best I think)
One word-
Mesmerising
Oh my gosh these are separate occasions?! I'd never watched the video, i always listen to this on audio. Your editing is FLAWLESS!
this is defiantly the best passenger song ever :)
Love this song! There are quite a few comments complaining that people just walked by him, but I felt there was a lot of appreciation in the air. Sometimes, when I walk by a busker, I want to stop but I'm already late for where I'm supposed to be. :) I thought I saw several stop and really listen intently. They may have walked past camera range, but I'm betting they hung around to hear the end of the song. I'm so thankful when I hear this kind of talent and thought.
You are a hungry heart and a loaded gun of musical perfection!!!!!
best lyric ever
He is unreal !! :)
Your music my friend is amazing and I think you always hit the mark.
Well done Mike, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE for the love of god put a decent version of "flight of the crow" on!! desperate!
so much aggression n the way he plays, reminds me of a young pete townshend, this kid is so goood
that was an amazing show, his voice is incredible in the studio and somehow even better live
Keep coming back to this song, so fucking good.
Two right words i can't believe in, to see my face on the video screen
i just wanna shout at all the people who are walking by and missing a legendary and awesome moment
He has mentioned in an interview that he hopes it will be out sometime in spring of next year.
I get choked up when I hear him sing this song.
Never heard this before, great lyrics.
i get nervous picking a favourite passenger song, but i think this might be it! love love love it
ahhh...had goosebumps watching this again...and it had the same effect live. he builds the end of the song sooo sooo well!!! it freaks me out!! in a good way. Cheers John.
Beautiful! I have yet to find a song of his that I DON'T like lol he's SPECTACULAR!
I am 27 Years Old. I should sing this in Town.

27 years, 27 years old
Only thing I know, the only thing I get told
I gotta sell out if I want to get sold
Don't want the devil to be taking my soul
I write songs that come from the heart
I don't give a fuck if they get into the chart, or not
Only way I can be, is to say what I see
And have no shadow hanging over me
[Hook]
I don't know where I'm running but I know how to run
Cause, running's the thing I've always done
I don't know what I'm doing but I know what I've done
I'm a hungry heart, I'm a loaded gun
[Verse 2]
27 years, 27 years now
Only thing I know, I know that I don't know how
To please everybody all of the time
Cause everybody's always fucking changing their minds
A little bit faded, a little bit jaded
Don't want to stop, won't be persuaded
To write words I can't believe in
To see my face on a video screen
[Hook]
I don't know where I'm running but I know how to run
Cause, running's the thing I've always done
I don't know what I'm doing but I know what I've done
I'm a hungry heart, I'm a loaded gun
Oh oh...
[Verse 3]
27 years, 27 years done
Written 600 songs, only 12 get sung
87,000 cigarettes have passed through these lungs
And every single day I wish I'd never smoked one
A week brushing my teeth and a week getting my haircut
8 years sleeping, I'm still tired when I wake up
A whole year eating and I still lost weight fuck
5 proper girlfriends and 5 messy breakups
27 birthdays, 27 new years
30,000 quid, just so I could have a few beers
Ever dying old hopes, ever growing new fears
Don't know where I'm going, but I know how I got here
[Hook]
I don't know where I'm running but I know how to run
Cause, running's the thing I've always done
I don't know what I'm doing but I know what I've done
I'm a hungry heart, I'm a loaded gun
Amazingg !
i really hope i get to see him busking one day
gosh, i like his lyrics so much :D
The next album is coming out this spring. and yes it will be on the album :)

bravissimo
hij komt in Amsterdam op 6 februari, maar die is al uitverkocht. Er is nog een optreden in het Tivoli in Utrecht, maar dan moet je zelf even kijken of er nog kaarten zijn en wanneer dat is
It's not on any album at the moment, but there is a good chance it will be on the next one.
nice editting bro!
Sweet! Great job on putting this together. xo
The only difference with passenger now is that he can play to more people easily. That's it - still busking, still playing in bars and pubs.
He is such a lovely person in real life
passenger rules!!!!!
