Gary Lightbody is so humble & real! Does he even realize how many lives his music & lyrics have touched? To Gary Lightbody & Snow Patrol: Please keep making great music! Gary, I am so, so sorry for your loss of your titan father, Jack. Love to you, your titan mum, sister, niece, family, friends & all who loved him! You're a titan also! I shed tears when I hear Soon & Heal Me. I can feel & see how personal those songs are to you. I lost my bio mom to dementia also. From a forever fan from Texas, USA. I look forward to the day(s) I can see & hear Snow Patrol in the Dallas, TX USA area! God bless y'all & keep y'all safe during this horrific pandemic.

Just wanted to leave some appreciation for Sarah Champion here (and trying really hard to do it without making the obvious last-name-joke!): charismatic voice, fantastic interview-style and overall just very, very lovely!

I Really Like The Tired Pony side project with Peter Buck & Zooey Deschanel. The 1st LP was an instant classic. Pure Pop For Now People !

The thumbs-up tell a story....great interview. Well done Sarah Champion. Gary is really on form here and the whole interview was delicately worked out and executed. Having done a few of these interviews on local radio, suffice to say, they can be nerve-wracking for both parties but you both pulled off a great little interview. NICE ONE.
