I cannot imagine the feeling when thousands of people are singing words that you originally sang.

Amazing. Perfect description of the entire moment. I would love to find an over 50 man who could feel and express such depth of emotion.... Yeah, I know. That is old...like when dirt was created. Hey, we are still alive you guys!!!!;) God bless you, Jordan!!! And keep going Snow Patrol....so beautiful. peace and love, mg
I was there . . . . we camped in the red tent site , got drunk on 5 euro pints . walked for miles in muddy wellys and got soaked to the skin in the Irish summer rain , and like the 80 thousand other people , we sung our hearts out to this . the emotion on Garys face and the reaction of everyone in the crowd is something i will never forget . I get goosebumps now just watching it .
Exactly, the artist having the public pay him to hear themselves sing. This is the essence of politics: getting the public/the masses believe you're special while they do all the work.
I remember collecting my daughter who went to oxygen. A day I will never forget. She got off the bus, filthy dirty and shattered. Her first time away from home with friends. I actually wasn't going to allow her to go as she was only 17. Looking at this, I'm glad I did. She had an amazing time.
This was the first song I learnt to play on guitar and sing as a 9 year old. I remember my teacher showing me it at school. I came home that night and my dad asked me what I’d done in my guitar lesson. I told him that I had learnt to play and sing “Run” by Snowpatrol. And he was immediately so excited to hear me play it. I asked why. He told me it was his favourite song ever, and it was the first and last song he saw me play. He passed away a year later. And I played the song at his funeral. That was 7 years ago. Now it’s our song. Gary Lightbody- you gave us this song. The song my Dad was sent home to. Thank you. 🙏🏻

+pretty girlx actually we're not as bad as other places a lot of concerts I've been too recently, of course have had people filming some parts, but it wasn't like a sea of phones. And the crowds are still just as loud and sing a long just as much.
Who listens to this in 2022 and get goosebumps because of the crowd. In my opinion one of the best concerts and crowd of all the time. Wish I was there... xx
If anyone ever asks why I obsess over music so much I wanna show them this video. This gives me goosebumps throughout the whole thing. Music just bring people together and I love it.
I am 61 and used to always be this way-you could remember the temperature when you first heard and LP for the first time, DJ's played what they wanted and music of this caliber came out every…single…week…
Totally agree with you, not to mention that Gary wrote this at the age of 15 in his bedroom. It's about being so lost in your life and you have no idea just who you are or if you'll ever realize your dreams. You're so young and terrified you'll amount to nothing in life, and then your loved ones step in and say "light up" and this is unconditional support no matter what. Those words are what Gary imagined his family would say to him, and they did. He's a incredible songwriter and has the ability to reach deep into everyone with his music and lyrics.
Just imagine thousands of strangers singing a song written by you in unison along with you. I think Gary can rest easy throughout his life knowing that he truly made his mark.
ever wonder what power looks like? how about 10000 people all raising their voice in unison? do. not. take. oppression. you are human you are part of the human engine. love and be loved.
I’d like to dedicate this song to my late wife. She passed away 27 months ago and this song just hits hard. It’s lovely and sad. But it gives me comfort that she’s in a better place. No more pain and no more suffering. I miss you my love, forever infinity
I lost count of how many times I've watched this... It's so beautiful! This is why music exists and play a major role in most of our lives! OUTSTANDING!
Any crowd: "We sing along, lalala!" Irish crowd: "Hold my Guinness!" When an Irish person goes to a concert, they become part of the band. This is - by far - the most emotional and best live music video on RUclips!
just a young man who left his home to chase his dreams, and he ended up on a stage with thousands of people singing his song. that there... that is the true beauty of life.
I have to say goodbye to my best friend for 13years, my dog Mamba. And while she was flying to angels at vet i was listening this. She find her peace and i will never forget her. She was my first and only puppy 🙏🏼🥲🐶
Totally agreed,perhaps Queen at Live Aid comes close to this performence. But both are a 'not from this planet/earth' concert.Must be extremely lucky when you were there..
I'll sing it one last time for you Then we really have to go You've been the only thing that's right In all I've done And I can barely look at you But every single time I do I know we'll make it anywhere Away from here Light up, light up As if you have a choice Even if you cannot hear my voice I'll be right beside you dear Louder, louder And we'll run for our lives I can hardly speak I understand Why you can't raise your voice to say To think I might not see those eyes Makes it so hard not to cry And as we say our long goodbyes I nearly do Light up, light up As if you have a choice Even if you cannot hear my voice I'll be right beside you, dear Louder, louder And we'll run for our lives I can hardly speak I understand Why you can't raise your voice to say?

It is not just that Snow Patrol are amazing... it is not just the Gary Lightbody is the modern day people's poet.. it's that there is absolutely ZERO arrogance or fakeness. Just appreciative musicians entertaining with AMAZING talent and humility. It is why Snow Patrol are simply pure.
It reminds me of my son. We used to learn English and listen to this song at night and now that he lives in the USA with his Mom, I listen to it to feel him close to me even though he is not physically close to me. " even if you cannot hear my voice I'll be right beside you dear.....I love you son forever❤
And this - exactly this, is what I think is the most magical in music. There is not much background music needed, just a few gentle chords, a beautiful voice like Gary's and that's enough to bring a crowd of this size to burst. This atmosphere - just unbelievable. Chapeau for such great musicians and such a great crowd.
That is how a crowd should be at a concert! NOT with their phones in the air and standing still just so they can get a good recording of the performer!
To be honest with you there isn’t songs that are good enough to get a crowd to sing anymore it’s all about how much money they have it’s so unrelatable and the lyrics are terrible
Was there in the pit that day near the lad with the Irish Flag , this song and chasing cars were probably 2 of the best live moments i've witnessed in my entire life... even though the weather was crap , it didn't bring down the crowd's mood one bit. Even Gary (lead singer/guitarist ) said it was one of the best crowds to be in front of in his life. EPIC
flip inheck had you watched the video first then if you use common sense it might occur to you at some stage tonight that I was referring to the crowd...what part of me stating 'forcing us to sing' could possibly refer to the band you simpleton
A chip the size of Dublin and completely proud of it. 100% Irish with more than enough pride to be able to say I live in a country that fought of the oppression for 800 years. And when easter comes around you better believe this country will be in absolute uproar to commemorate the day a handful of Irish men took over a few buildings and made a mockery of the highly trained British army. Tiocfaidh at la❤
Wow! My eyes welled up with tears of joy for and with him when I saw his emotional response to thousands of people singing his song as one voice. Tremendous experience for him and the fans.
Thousands of people singing in unison, orchestrated by one man with a guitar; the man who wrote the song. I cannot imagine the feeling when thousands of people are singing words that you originally sang. You know you've made it in life, you know you've captured the emotions, the imagination, the passion within those people. What I find even more incredible is that, words put to some chords can create such an emotion, such a communal affair... That those simple words can bring a tear to the most emotionless person. It's beautiful
well said 👌👌
That must be one of the greatest highs a human being can have.
So very wonderfully and perfectly said. I'm sitting here with tears in my eyes after watching this.
Put as beautifully as the song.
Amazing. Perfect description of the entire moment. I would love to find an over 50 man who could feel and express such depth of emotion.... Yeah, I know. That is old...like when dirt was created. Hey, we are still alive you guys!!!!;) God bless you, Jordan!!! And keep going Snow Patrol....so beautiful. peace and love, mg
This is one of my favorite live performance videos on RUclips. I have been coming back and rewatching it over and over against since 2011.

Same here. Its electrifying... gives me goosebumps.

Time to rewatch
The feeling you must get when 1000s of people sing the lyrics to your song back at you must be unreal
IT is unreal 😌
This was 80000 people as someone in the crowd said. Dat feeling..
@1:21 that grin is that moment when you're like "unreal"

I was there . . . .
we camped in the red tent site , got drunk on 5 euro pints . walked for miles in muddy wellys and got soaked to the skin in the Irish summer rain , and like the 80 thousand other people , we sung our hearts out to this .
the emotion on Garys face and the reaction of everyone in the crowd is something i will never forget .
I get goosebumps now just watching it .
Wish i were there as well

there just something about a crowd singing that makes you so emotional
how the fuck did he stand there without bursting into tears
Totally agree I'd have lost it by the second word hearing them singing along...
Because it feels different from his side
He nearly did

I'll be right beside you dear
i keep coming back to this video, and every time i get goose bumps
His smile when the crowd is singing is so beautiful I'm tearing up
May 2023 - Still the #1 crowd singing performance on RUclips. Great song too.
@markkelly2261the river plate football si senor chant is remarkable
Once in your lifetime listen to your own song sung by such a crowd and then die peacefully. Incredible audience, wonderful song. thanks for sharing!
I thought I was the only one to think this. How I would love to have this feeling for just a single moment.
So true...so true....
I can't imagine how the lead singer felt having thousands of people sing his song
omg, can you imagine. Few people inn the entire world actually have felt that.
Moments like this remind us that we’re all in this together.
I was there, absolutely amazing. looking back has brought me to tears.
how many years ago was this?
+pattyl vartanian this was in 2009 so 7 years
Oh man that's lucky
Graham Durkin kkn. B
Lucky u
Jesus. Christ. I did not see that crowd coming. Instantly brought me to tears.
It is not just that Snow Patrol are amazing... it is not just the Gary Lightbody is the modern day people's poet.. it's that there is absolutely ZERO arrogance or fakeness. Just appreciative musicians entertaining with AMAZING talent and humility. It is why Snow Patrol are simply pure.
so true
This is incredible. The song, the crowd, that smile...
It reminds me of my son. We used to learn English and listen to this song at night and now that he lives in the USA with his Mom, I listen to it to feel him close to me even though he is not physically close to me. " even if you cannot hear my voice I'll be right beside you dear.....I love you son forever❤
holy crap. i cried . this was so beautiful.
I found this song by searching “best concert sing along”. This is beautiful❤️
And this - exactly this, is what I think is the most magical in music. There is not much background music needed, just a few gentle chords, a beautiful voice like Gary's and that's enough to bring a crowd of this size to burst. This atmosphere - just unbelievable. Chapeau for such great musicians and such a great crowd.
5:18 is the moment you realize you've won in life. This has to be my favorite video of all time.
If you're a fan of disturbed check out down with the sickness in germany
Freddie Mercury- “Ok. You can borrow my crowd, but only just this once.”
JOSEPH LONSDALE
Um....k. Not sure what that means but thanks.
No comparison and should never say such a thing because they are for there own !!!
andref f andref f
It was a joke. Lighten the F up!
It's so beautiful that nobody has a mobile Phone in the Hand
Brilliant point - I never even noticed or realised until I read your post. I was too into the amazing song and vid.
Imagine, living in the moment and not trying to record it
😂😂
2009...
It's called Collaboration :-)
The fans invited Snow Patrol to a liveshow hahaha, this is amazing
At 0:10 he hears how loud and in unison those claps are. That's the smile of someone who knows they've made it and shit is about to go down!!
Such a true crowd.. This makes me cry with joy every time. This is truly beautiful!! ❤️
+Hannah Mills Gary is simply amazing :) Amazing people, amazing voice indeed.
His face while everyone was singing was priceless.
This crowd reaction is every song songwriter’s dream to to hear your song shouted back at them.
Amazing public... Those people will never forget this moment :)
That is how a crowd should be at a concert! NOT with their phones in the air and standing still just so they can get a good recording of the performer!
I honestly really agree. People should actually sing along like THAT sometimes!
To be honest with you there isn’t songs that are good enough to get a crowd to sing anymore it’s all about how much money they have it’s so unrelatable and the lyrics are terrible
I come back to it every few months, jus to refresh this in my memory. Cus i dont wanna forget it.
15 years later ..... and its still a classic...
The single best natural high a single person could ever experience.
“That was beautiful!” ❤️one of my favorite life performances! Being in that crowd must have been incredible!
thit has to be the most beautiful thing for a singer, maaaan that was epic
Was there in the pit that day near the lad with the Irish Flag , this song and chasing cars were probably 2 of the best live moments i've witnessed in my entire life... even though the weather was crap , it didn't bring down the crowd's mood one bit. Even Gary (lead singer/guitarist ) said it was one of the best crowds to be in front of in his life.
EPIC
Sometimes i need moments like these with a giant clump of humanity.
all them years of the irish catholic national school system forcing us to sing against our will in front of church congregations and classes paid off
Hahaha Brilliant
flip inheck had you watched the video first then if you use common sense it might occur to you at some stage tonight that I was referring to the crowd...what part of me stating 'forcing us to sing' could possibly refer to the band you simpleton
+flip inheck OMG you're so funny like. I suppose no one ever forced you to do anything so that's why you're here annoying my hole at 3 in the morning.
flip inheck I'm sure Jim'll fix it for you now fuck off
A chip the size of Dublin and completely proud of it. 100% Irish with more than enough pride to be able to say I live in a country that fought of the oppression for 800 years. And when easter comes around you better believe this country will be in absolute uproar to commemorate the day a handful of Irish men took over a few buildings and made a mockery of the highly trained British army. Tiocfaidh at la❤
2021 anyone? 😎
You two! It’s been a year and it’s a time to reflect but hell im just lucky to be alive. Stay safe stay positive live

From Russia with love🇷🇺😊

Wow! My eyes welled up with tears of joy for and with him when I saw his emotional response to thousands of people singing his song as one voice. Tremendous experience for him and the fans.
My mum loved this song...I miss her soo much ..
That crowd is amazing!
This may just be the best thing ever...
That must be one of the greatest feelings that no money could ever buy. A crowd belting out your song
I was right there in the pit for it...one of the most emotional and amazing experiences if my life!! Hon Snow Patrol!!
