I'm the girl who hugs Neil around 1:07. That concert was in Nantes, France. Unforgettable!
Simplement,
Ow you say?...
Fasczinatingement.
Played this at my daughter's funeral in honour of the Special Care Babies Unit at RVI Newcastle. Absolute heroes and a beautiful song. Thankyou Neil.
Neil is a really kind man he used to live beside us , his mother still does and she is also a lovely lady .
Bless her. That welled me up mate x
The song made me emotional, your post had tears falling. No-one should have to outlive their own child, that should be a rule. Hope you're ok x
@@stevenrichardson1843 Same x
Sleep well❤
🥀Une musique qui vous donne l’envie d’aimer la Terre entière…et Neil HANNON…en particulier💎💎💎 11.2.2024
Can't understand why this fantastic master piece does not have 100 millions views..
how would people know about it to search for it on yt? it's not on the radio
I agree entirely. It’s their loss though.
is nothin ever enough? be at peace🤣
if i have just discovered it, then a million other people should too.@@dickottel
I was going through a hard time with my divorce and the death of my father a couple years ago. My big brother said “come let’s go out and cheer you up. I’ve got a spare ticket for a concert tonight come with me. Divine comedy at the london palladium” I went and had the most amazing time. Tomorrow, I bury my brother. He was more like my father. I love you brother.
so sorry for your loss. this song probably blows your mind as much as it blows mine.
Your brother was a wise man. God bless him...and you sir
Sorry for your loss, Joe. Your brother obviously had good taste and I'm glad you were lifted by going to see The Divine Comedy live. I'm lucky enough to play guitar in the band. I was looking at this clip to remind me of a great time we had on this tour. Love and light to you and your family.xx
Im 15, divine comedy were my first concert
Do I know you?

This song was written about Neil Hannon's partner, Cathy Davey who is part of the team running the My Lovely Horse Rescue charity which looks after abandoned horses in Ireland.
In my opinion, one of the best pieces of music I have ever heard.
I concur.
This song is sweating kindness from top to bottom ! Thank you so much for your work, guys !
This song, and its crafting, is sublime. A song to become lost in, immersed in. Only just discovered it. What the hell have I been missing?
you've missed loads - but you can catch up now! 😊
One of the finest crafted songs of the last decade... yet to receive a million views. The world is insane.
The man is the most underated artist ever. Beautiful music and he seems a throughly nice man.
His partner runs My Lovely Horse rescue here in Ireland. Named after his song from Father Ted. I think this song might be about her considering the lyrics
I literally came to RUclips thinking "I bet there's a brilliant Divine Comedy song I've never even heard of". And here it is.
A smile. An unexpected tear. That's Divine Comedy all the time. ❤️
Bought this cd and vinyl in France when it was out,my beloved partner David passed away few months later,this songs bring me tears,dear Neil,thanks for your wonderful music,Sleep tight David❤
That's really hard. Take care
Best songwriter in the world :)
Yes so!
And you Sir, are the finest of judges of songwriters.
X. Takes bow.... Drops mic....falls in orchestra pit :)
charliebadger Ooooh yeah !!!! ✌😉😆😘😊😜
This comment makes me really happy as I realize I'm not the only one who thinks so :)
I am Korean(South Korea for sure..) and I luckily had a chance to go to his concert in London on his 42nd birthday! The most memorable day in my life and I always think of the day whenever I have hard times :) I will always support this talented guy and will enjoy his songs!
Such a nice story, I only could see him once and it was bliss.
Lucky you! I am glad you have escaped the K Pop immersion.
HI, 멋진 노래 ;-)
한국 디바인 코미디 팬들이 있는 것은 되게 다행이네요!
그리고 제 한국어 신력은 언젠가 태우 씨의 영어신력만큼 잘 하면 좋겠어요 :)
wow
I never used to like this band - I always thought Neil Hannon was a bit pompous... but then I saw them playing Rescue on Jools Holland. Honestly, I had to watch it at least 5 times in a row and I've never deleted it from my TV box, nor ever will. Now I'm discovering beautiful music and lyrics from the Devine Comedy that I've missed all these years. Such wonderful love songs. Certainly want to see them live.
A song for those of us who put on our boots in the middle of the night to go rescue a stray dog. Hannon is a genius. ;)
Billy's trumpet solo is to die for
This is one of the best songs I have ever had the privilege to listen to. Beautiful, poignant and tremendous. Paddy Mcaloon couldn't have done it better. I think that's a compliment.
I agree. Why aren't The Divine Comedy and Prefab Sprout the biggest bands ever?
@@jdovengloves4393 , they are.
That's a hell of a compliment. And well deserved. PAddy is a genius, musically and lyrically. So are devine comedy.
This is the epitome of great songwriting. Where the words and the music combine to give you what you need.
qui d'autre que neil peut se permettre le luxe d'ajouter un solo de trompette dans son morceau?
chanson juste magnifique et qui rend heureux
I was stopped in my tracks upon hearing this for the first time on BBC 6Music. This is a really sublime piece of music that I feel all the richer for upon knowing of it's existence.
Gary Mitrovic I heard this on 6 music too. Had the same effect on me. That station has introduced me to so much great music.
Dulce
FAB
The horn solo on this (think it's a flugelhorn?) needs to be given a knighthood or something, just perfect
Couldn't agree more!
Gets me every time.
Goosebumps when that kicks in
J"adore
Never tired of it...
tellement triste et tellement beau, merci !
I heard this song for the first time this week. I told somebody 'it is strange how sometimes a song comes when you need it'
Funny, I listened to the song a "thousand" times, and everytime the song is at 4.14 the tears come.... Everytime😊
It happened again😂
Mine at 3.27.
terrific isn't it
@@romanhawranek3699 Mine too!!
I don’t usually comment but it’s one of my favourite songs, music for the soul. Also love the French Canadian band Harmonium and Georges Delerue Day for Night soundtrack.
The most underrated band to ever exist
What a song to write for your girl
Vu à Dublin le 30 mai dernier, quasi à domicile. Quel artiste ! Toujours un grand moment sur scène.
I think they are following the great tradition of British song writers like the Kinks.
Thankyou😊
What a fucking tune.... can’t stop listening to it .puts me in a ridiculously happy place .thanks guys
I am so lucky to find this. God it is amazing !
un des seuls artistes à être capable de me faire pleurer, comme ça, d'un coup... corde sensible... corde sensible.... Go on mister Hannon
Amazing, beautiful and haunting, I can't believe I did not know about them for so long.
Gracias
Une voix et des chansons intemporelles.... Neil est un génie... La France l'adore!!!
Thanks very much! I heard the song on the car radio for the first time when I was burned out but didn't know it yet. Your song got me thinking. He helped me through a very difficult time. Thank you so much for that!
This is the best song for about the last twenty odd years. Everything about it is total class. I must have played it easily a hundred times. Well done, man. Be proud of that.
It’s a beautiful song, wonderful music and words. The trumpet solo at the end is sublime.
"Got a vigilante sleeping in my bed.
I looked for Marilyn, got Che instead.
But I'll march behind you, wherever you may go,
and I'm more proud of you than you can ever know"
A very beautiful tribute to his wife.
Beautiful that bit
How lucky is she - his partner, to have that written about her? He has the gift of making you laugh one moment, and cry the next.
Got Che instead!! F-ing the best!!
funny - I was listening to this again just now, and then your comment popped up. As the song closed with the solo bugle, the image came to mind of Neil holding his hand in a salute.
How wonderful is it when one of your favourite artists makes the tune you exactly need at one point in your life? And I just live for that outro, too!
so do I.Cheers
Me too.
@@chickenswampable Everything about it is superb - and that horn is perfection
@@fairygirlsgarden3260 You're spot on Fairygirl,and your videos are lovely.
@@chickenswampable Very kind of you - thanks😀
Ich liebe dieses Lied, ich mag diese Truppe. Möge ihr viel Erfolg beschieden sein!
I didn't notice right away but there's only 16.1K subscribers. I feel sorry for all those people who don't listen to that superb music.
The song is so evocative and moving, and that horn is just too much. Brings me to tears every time I hear it. One of the greats! Everyone should hear this. I defy anyone to not be moved.
this guy is a genius, nuff said!
Actually this song is an instant classic👑
One thing about The Divine Comedy. They certainly don't always sound the same. I really value that.
An exceptional song which continually surprises me because of 'when' it comes from. This could grace any of Neil's 90's albums, the decade when he produced heart-wrenching true beauty and almost no garbage. The rest of Foreverland, from which this song comes, is not very memorable but is a lot better than the atrocious Office Politics. I think To The Rescue is my favourite The Divine Comedy song. I didn't think he was still capable of songs this good. Perhaps he began it in the 90's?
quite agree with u! Office Politics...well....
LOVE YOU STOR DE API❤
This music put´s tears in my eyes, it´s so amazingly beautiful!!!
Love this song along with Middle Class Heroes, both classics.
This is one of my favourites from Neil’s back catalogue. Such a beautiful song.
Dear Neil: Home alone at Christmas, this one keeps me going! Your music offers so much comfort! You're a wonderful artist + person! Much love from Switzerland and Merry Christmas to you and your loved ones!!! ❤😘🎄
You are never truly alone when you have great music to listen to... 🙂
You re part of the divine comedy community!
@@Labojr thanks! That's so kind! Thanks 😘
Un immense artiste de la pop britannique...
Irish.
There's not many songs that blow my socks off these days....but this.. well what can I say ..absolutely brilliant. In my Top 10 for sure x
Absolutely sublime piece of music and one of the best divine comedy songs written.
A masterpiece, sublime
Wow is all I can say to this ,Neil is a gifted songwriter
makes you feel like you are the witness of the best song ever...
When I was a kid no one really thought Every Kind of People was a cool record and this is one of those, classic great track
Neil's always been a bloody musical genius - this is right up there with his best :)
Underrated with such wholesome music .
His voice is delicious
His absolutely greatest choon 😍 luv it x
Was für ein wunderbares Lied.
He used to be my parents neibour ( he moved out by the time I rember ) his mother is still my neibour she is such a lovely lady , one day I heard Neil was coming to our house ( I had no clue that he was in a band ) he talked about it and after I searched it up and now I love the band .
Saw Devine Comedy a few years ago in Dublin. This song blew my mind. Absolutely amazing piece of music
still a great tune, theres a longing in this tune draws me every time. thanks for this, a stellar career, long may it continue,
Never been a huge "The Divine Comedy" listener...but I must say this song blew me away...it has everything...great lyrics..and amazing melody..
Y❤️
One of the best song I have ever heard Great Artist!
I really love this underrated song. Special thanks to RUclips recommendation, I discovered this song. This song never fails to be a rescue whenever I feel badmood or feeling sentimental, I can never thank The Divine Comedy enough
It’s a gorgeous song, which always brings a tear to my eyes.
As an American thank you for releasing this on a day we desperately needed it. Bring this tour to Texas please!
This surpasses 'The Certainty of Chance' as Neil's greatest lyric and the understated musical backing is perfect. Just stunning!
A brilliant record, one of the greats
Magnifique!
Fantastic work that will live forever.
There's a few words I can use to describe this............ Quality, Perfect, Awesome, Outstanding, incredible, beautiful........
Music can make the world better,for sure!
One of his finest songs to date. Neil! Come to the United States! Please, for the love of GOD!
He's got such a beautiful whimsical voice. And those strings 😍...
magique et Magistral.....la quintessence de la musique..
The best song I've ever heard.
Five years after my first listening, the emotion is still the same.
It will be great, if this song could be a soundtrack of a love story film. Tears guaranteed !
The greatest song of all time.
Vu en concert à Bordeaux. Concert magnifique. Grand artiste. Chanson splendide. La grande classe...
Most beautiful song ever .
One of my favourite songs ever. ❤ Such talent
Idem de France❤
When the bugle comes in I shiver every time. Brill
It has to be a great song when you hear it once and keep it on repeat for the whole week ! This song has some of the magic dust that fell on the Absent Friends album - in my humble opinion.Just awesome and then some.
Saw them last night in Cork, Ireland.......bloody amazing!!! They played this track and Neil announced "it's about being in love and animal rescue"!. His wife, Cathy Davey, runs a horse charity here called "My Lovely Horse"....of course! If you get the chance to see them go....you won't be disappointed!
Those little periodic electric guitar twangs make it for me, I'm so easily pleased. Also the lyrics, the strings and trumpet close to the end. But mostly just those twangs.
Again… love it. Thanks.
I have no words to describe this amazing song. Absolutely stunning , well done guys 👌👌👌👌
All these years later, still always a tear at 2.22 🥲 What a truly beautiful song.
What a wonderful song. Thank you so much, Neil. Keep on going strong. Following you from the start
The divine at his best. You made it again, Mr. Hannon.
how could i live before not listening to this sublime song ? 💥🖤💥
as long as me lol.
This makes me want to cry - it's so beautiful!
Faith in humanity restored.
Absolutely beautiful ❤️
Wonderful, just Wonderful. Such talent . I just love that band
