Nobody knows how this absolutely wonderful song is not known by everyone everywhere. Stirring, mesmerising, hypnotic, breathtaking... Thank you Paul Brady ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This man had a stellar career in Irish traditional music back in the 70’s, built a new career as a singer songwriter in the 80’s, even had a song(Steel Claw) on Tina Turner’s “Private Dancer” album and continues to perform to a high level in 2024.
As a Pureblood who didn't fall for the Scam of the last 4 years I attribute a large amount of my intuition to Paul and Van and their honest music and frequency. Thanks Paul and Van .
An audience listening to a performer like Paul Brady in that enthralled concentrated manner is just as good as a hand-clapping, foot-stomping screaming group of people -- this is equally compelling to a performer. This is actually what it's all about. This audience will go home without their ears ringing & they will remember...
I stand corrected versus an older live single acoustic version of this by Paul years ago. It has mellowed and this is the best version with all the added technical artistry and the faces on the crowd and their being in his groove is really great. - )Jim from Minnesota and our travels with Mick to Adriene's Wedding in Goteborg). God bless Mick as well with all he has accomplished in his life on the traditional side. I will always like your decision Paul to keep mostly to the traditional acoustic sound with your beautiful sounding Lowden. Cheers!!
How did I never come across this gem before? I heard him sing a traditional Irish song (Ae Fond Kiss with Karen Matheson) so put his name into the search engine to find what else of his there might be out there. 'Nobody Knows' came up. Top drawer stuff.
I know a man, raised in circumstances nearly identical to mine. I don’t think he was ever dealt a good hand, but played every one of them as well as he could and stayed in the game far longer than most of us would. After finally leaving the table, he clings to shreds of pride smaller than most would kick away in the dust. I sit in the dark alone, and listen to this and think of him. Why a life of so many bad breaks? “The answer is nobody knows.”
The sound is flawless. Is that some old church? The acoustics and Brady's distinctive voice make this flow so beautifully! Loved the audience response.
Great Artist, Great Song. Wonderful Irishman and a man of the world. Homes of Donegal, Lakes of Ponchetrain, Arthur mc bride and so on. I love the man. Don't agree with seated concerts.
@@fromireland8663 All Seated concerts denies fans the possibility to really feel the music and express themselves through movement, to go with the flow. Listening to song after song for 2 hours in a seat and clapping and cheering at the right moments is like being in a cage. It's more often than not purely waxing the artists' ego. They should be there to entertain and provide enjoyment and not to be adored.
@@fromireland8663 I never said there should be no seats. Anybody who wants to sit should be able to sit, just like anyone who wants to move should be able to move. Being forced to stand at a concert would be just as imprisoning as being forced to sit.
@@peadarduggan9191 yeah, well maybe people don't appreciate their view of the stage being blocked by someone bopping in front of them. If it is that NB to you, check before booking and give the sit-downs a miss.
Watched it again tonight. Po faced audience, this is artistic, that's why we're here? - no, it's a heartbreaking song of why has it turned out this way. Tomorrow night I'll see the diametric opposite "Therapy?" still gigging around Ireland. Absolute nihilism, listen to "Knives" and say you haven't felt that way. I'd say both are artistic in capturing a feeling, and throwing it straight at you.
And these po-faced artistic types piss me off even more. Watching with "learned" smiles. Never faced with it, but inside desperately trying to understand. Simple, but difficult - nobody knows.

Thanks Paul and Van .
Why my twin brother took his own life. It's been 45yrs ago and I still wander why.

This is just class
There aren't many songs that made me cry, this one is one of them. Magnificent
6 year s after I made a comment on this vid I am living in Ireland visiting his concert next Saturday! Nobody knew... life is good.
How was the concert? I am so moved by Paul and his voice 🎶💛
I first heard paul 15 years ago and he's as good as Ever !!!
Colossal song, such great lyrics and from a man so talented. Would saw my left foot off to hear and appreciate him live.

This film is a work of art... It captures, stunningly, the audience's appreciation for Paul Brady - a true genius!
And not a smartphone in sight. Refreshing.
Adore the lady twirling her brunette curls...she knows what's coming.
1:56 that woman is living the moment, while everyone else is captivated
Perfect. Brilliant performance, brilliant film. Every face in the audience shows a bond with the performer,
Heart.breaking spot on Paul 🎩🎩🎩
I first heard this song over thirty years ago.
I finally found it.
Wonderful in so many ways, perfect songwriting, music and filming
This exceptional film earned a sub. Best song. Best performance. Best of Paul Brady. June 2021

yup, that's life in a nutshell .... but beautifully expressed as only Paul Brady can .....
The latest recording on Paul’s recently realeased album is stunning
What a fantastic live performance.
Give the album Trick or Treat a listen folks, this is just one of the classic tracks from it
A captivated audience, no surprise. What a great artist ;)
Dude, absolutely brilliant! Great capture of the essence of a fantastic artist deep in his craft! Thanks for doing and especially for sharing this 😃
Wow,now that was a treat,it was Bob Harris that used to keep playing it,l will never tire of this song!
Paul is a rare and pure talent, as a guitar player, keyboard player, singer and songwriter.
A classic 👍
Great song, great version, great artist...
Ill ask him again to come to Holland one day...
It pays to look for music the radio never plays.
Masterpiece.
Incredible
