Your mum will be up there dancing on the stars singing Elbow tunes brother, much love...💙

Love the Holy Spirit. He knows 21st-century methods to spread the love and insight That is what throwing the curtains wide actually means.

@@sidpheasant7585what’s the Holy Spirit got to do with this song? It’s music that’s of the world, this song does not represent god. The Holy Spirit has nothing to do with causing a crowd to participate.

@@Cookies2132 It is obvious that, while the world is often linked together with the Flesh and the D*v*l, and while 1 John 5:19 says straight that the whole world lieth in wickedness, signs for people from God are throughout The Bible and quite clearly there is interaction between the eternal and the divine and what we have here on Earth. Quite clearly those signs can involve Scripture, but also nature (as St Bede for example recognised), and indeed culture and ... in the end ... rapture. We believe that both hymns and religious paintings can inspire (the word actually refers to the Spirit) a better seeing and understanding of God, thereby also suggesting a blurring of the life-art boundary that characterises the Holy Spirit. It would be odd and illogical and unlikely to suggest there is a pure and clear boundary between the intentionally-divine music associated with church and music in general. And indeed a Holy Spirit determined to spread understanding of God, through the words and actions of Jesus, would HAVE to seek ways of reaching "non-religious" people. Jesus says ther Spirit is like the wind, blowing where He will, and that enigmatic behaviour must also denote work in "popular" circumstances and with ordinary people, and indeed with atheists/agnostics (Vaughan Williams and his church music springs straight to mind). The song from Elbow has a clear spiritual aspect, people like it or love it and are not sure why, and participation CAN INDEED suggest the action of the Holy Spirit, as it also does in certain church services. God is represented wherever there is love and truth (these are the very nature of the Holy Spirit too), wherever there is a clearer separation of good from evil, wherever people reach for higher things, wherever the sacrifice and love of Jesus is understood. But in many the first inkling is many steps down the line from full faith, so people have to be helped to grasp what they experiencing. I try to do that.

Grounds for Divorce was the song that led me to this.

Who knows? So many things to discover. Only twigged to these punters myself recently. The frontman is quintessentially British I reckon. Life love and the Universe and a cup of tea. (I'm Irish, please do excuse my bamboozling attempt at english). Abso fecking lootly lovely

Same here.🥰🥰

I will as, an Englishman..You are missing a shit load. Please carry on searching 👍🍻😁👍🍻😁

There's one recorded live with the BBC orchestra. You should listen to that. Lonliness of a tower crane driver is on another level.

Heard a clip on a TV game show, just had to Google it majic SA bed it to my playlist, that should say saved.. Annie, Truro Cornwall 💖

I can’t stop playing it !

Humans with the Holy Spirit, to be exact. The greatest partnership in the universe. In it we can do anything. We must do - because now is the time to choose good over evil.

Not sure but guessing Sharon Corr is one and perhaps one of her sisters

With the Holy Spirit offering inspiration those things happen. Often we do not even realise what is happening. I was lucky (blessed) because I did. Don't ever want to turn back now, as I am Born Again and it's great. "Silly wrong and vivid right" - I had that in my life, went from one to the other "Only now I see the light" It's in the song God is in the song. Elbow are talented, but the Holy Spirit - boy does He ever know what He is doing! Wisdom-cleansing-healing-love-truth-mercy-insight-inspiration. I received them all, and all I had to do was ask! We need him now to save this world in such trouble. That is the ONLY answer.

@@sidpheasant7585 : totally ARSE !

@@pierremaes5453 Not quite sure what you mean here, Pierre.

Thanks for your incisive comment. You’ve made a real contribution. By the way, no need for the apostrophe.

Let alone all DAY.. I’d say all DECADE

Because of how pure and beautiful it is. All the hate and anger in the world, it's SO reassuring to see thousands of people coming together through something as powerful as music. Look how completely and utterly happy the people here are!!

Andy C I completely agree with you,we need more things like this in the world

Couldn't agree more. Just imagine how beautiful it would of been to be caught up in the moment there with thousands of people euphoric from singing along. This vid will be an instant pick-me-up if I'm ever feeling down...

just that good you cant heip it....

Loved every minute of the set they played. Absolute treat - and unexpected, so a brilliant surprise. Thank you, BBC!

Elbow have always done this song great justice.

dogegg2 you are lucky

they are considered one of the best band in UK for a while now...they won best live gig of 2015. They are already set in British music history since 2011 ;)

George Tanu They need wider exposure in the U.S. I only heard of them last year (Mirror Ball) and I am a music head.

Me too

I knowww.. I live in france and omg this makes me feel soooo homesick ❤️
