An excellent talented and humble man Love his music and his spirit.

this guy deserves so much more recognition than he has

Glen is where my heart rests, the song of good hope breaks me down and also gives me the strength to get up again, keeps me going. Glen is a human like so many of us who understand what live's about .. Music can heal the world if we all listen to our hearts. Love him, he's one of not many. Please believe in yourself and magic can happen, never give up the belief. NEVER EVER

I have watched this every Christmas since 2013, when it was first broadcast. I am dreading the day it's taken off KZfaq. I've even contacted the production company behind Letterman but they won't give me a copy. This is my Christmas gift to myself every year, and I never want it to change. First play of 2021 is tonight!

He is the most charismatic musician of our time.

Glen's music is timelessly beautiful and he is as good live as in studio, which is really rare. What a beautiful soul + voice.

I have watched this so many times, it will never get old! ♡

Glen Hansard is maybe the least appreciated artist of the total extra class. And it is only because he is obsessed with music and the humble, he does not need to do any extra promo. I saw him maybe 6 times or 7 live in the Czech republic, and he always plays with total commitment, whether playing for 300 listeners in the castle courtyard or for a full hall. He is a surreal artist!

Last year I had a pleasure to see Glen Hansard live and it was the best concert I’ve ever seen. He came to Poland with his band consists of guitars, piano, strings and winds instruments. Glen’s music is just like him - energetic and positive, that’s why I couldn’t stop myself from smiling during the entire show. He also played some songs full of magical folk sounds straight from his motherland - Irleand. But the most amazing thing that night was the connection between fans and artists such as moments of Glen’s little talk and singing together polish songs „Hej, sokoły” and „Płonie ognisko”. It was really unbelievable evening.

One of the best concerts taped and online--ever!

About 25 years ago in clifden Galway it was a night of music with Glenn Hansard and friends , to this day I think that was the best concert ,he nearly blew the mic away with the volume of his voice

Glen is amazing... every show he plays, there's just that much of energy in it.

I stumbled across Glen Hansard after watching the movie Once. I only watched it because I LOVE movies about music or musicians. Fun Fact for novice Glen Hansard fans: Glen had a substantial part in the movie The Commitments from forever ago. He looks about 17 years old in it. And if you haven't seen that movie, what's wrong with you? It's so good! So Anyways, that movie turned me on to his music. I have and love all his stuff and then years later my wife and I went to the Broadway play titled appropriately enough, Once. It was AMAZING!!! Then a few years ago (probably 2015), I FINALLY had the chance to see him live in San Francisco. I've seen well over 100 concerts in my days and this live performance was my ALL TIME FAVORITE concert I've ever been to!! His passion, commitment, talent, and connection with the audience is truly one of a kind and absolutely genuine. I've been waiting for him to come back through anywhere within 500 miles of San Francisco and I will go... I'm serious. It was that entertaining. He was in Southern California last year but I had a vacation already booked and paid for. I was sorry I missed it. Come back to SF Glen.... And hurry!!!

The band he's playing with is amazing. I love all his shows but the band makes this one the best I've seen.

Glen is one of the greatest artist of these last 20 years. Period.

I dream of the words to express what this man's art has done for my life and I know countless others'. His gut honesty and his organic craft are absolutely inspirational. Bravo. Marvelous performance. Endless gratitude.

This man makes magic on the stage, makes magic with his lyrics, makes magic with his music. Totally in love of this magician. ❤️

such an amazing concert! u wont see his talent in 2022 anywhere! he is amazing!

I was lucky enough to see Glen at the Capitol Theatre in 2018. Waited for hours to stand 2nd row and it was worth every minute of it. Best show ever.

Wow this is better than any therapy session I've ever had ... Lots of tears and smiles. I'm left full of hope for myself... and humanity in general. We are capable of so much, capable of this.... thanks Glen!

his honesty gives so much power to his delivery , it just rips you apart , i still haven't found anyone that is able to to that so effectively

Glen, Van would be proud of you, you're sublime, absolutely fantastic...... true soulful, loving music. thank you

Was at this performance. Nothing but heart and soul on this stage.

This Gift is so "out of this world!"

That horn section is so killer!

Glen changed my life. The music, the lyrics, the passion.....just incredible. Ringing in the new year alone with this blaring in the living room. Love it!!

Glen, Damian Rice, Mundy...what a generation of songwriters! Ireland I love you.

UGH, I CAN WATCH AND LISTEN TO THIS ALL DAY EVERY DAY... LOVE HIM!!!! :)

Such a voice of these crazy times..joy and pain...and when he dances...

I had the privilege of seeing him live in concert last week. It was the best live show I've ever attended. He is definitely underrated. Great songwriter and musician.

I'm not at all ashamed to admit I've listened to this at work for the past 2 days on repeat.

how could they make the performance of 'when your minds made up' even more epic than the movie version. just incredible. blew me away!

so so glad i stumbled upon this recording. worth every second!

Je ne connaissais pas du tout, la révélation. Super concert. Un régal !!!!

the new Van Morrison, Glen H is an absolute legend, love him. Years of music to come, can;t wait...

One of the BEST shows I've ever been to.

It just does not get better than this.

It's so good to listen to Glen at this time of year, it's like he transports me back to Dublin and Grafton Street for a little while...:)

Bird of Sorrow has to be one of my most favorite songs--so passionate!

I wish I could like this 100 times.

He is so humble and so connected to his band and the audience, so in the zone, the energy is overwhelming

God bless you, Glen ! Among all the sound-trash of today , you made me believe in music, in touching music again. And as Stevie Wonder said "Let's make love great again "! love is not America (Mr. President) , not Africa, Europe , Asia, Australia , not even the Antarctic (despite they need even more for the frozen arses).Who makes him self great makes others small !

This is such a brilliant performance from Glen and the band. So glad folks get to see Glen's incredible energy, charisma, and talent. Love this man! Love this band!!

he 's becoming even better and better :) awesome Glen!you seem so happy up there

This concert is phenomenal! Thanks for serving this gem up!

genius and probably one of the top 5 rock vocalists in the world right now

the parting glass from @69:50 is the most beautiful thing i've ever heard. National treasure this man is. Incredible

It's just , beautifull !!! So good songs , so much melody, amazing.

I can't stand Glen's presentations! Which one I see I get more goosebumps! He is so wonderful!

I wish Id met Glen when I was 20 ... Hes a keeper... Id have loved to have sung with him.....forever

Seen Glen 3 times and have no problem putting all three in my top 10 shows of all time.

take a bow lad,that was incredible

Easter Sunday and have just missed mass listening to this and have to say no apologies as I have learnt more about myself and life in the last hour than any sermon would have taught me!!!

Simply cannot get enough of Glen's magical voice, songwriting. Always a breath of fresh air.

Could sing the phonebook. Brilliant live

A song writer who’s amazing voice, lyrics and music that pierce your heart and are matched by the depth of his feelings and his beautiful soul. Where have you been all my life?!

Didn't know he even did a Letterman recording. He is something else. A ntional treasure indeed. Our very own Dylan.

Brilliant concert [under statement] !!!

this has to be one of the most spiritual things I've seen. saw him in Sydney this year and was moved for days. The energy him and his band channel is beyond words!!! :)

This Gift... unbearably perfect

Love this guy!! Awesome musician!

My favourite concert, by anyone, ever. And I've seen Alison Krauss and Union Station, LIVE, in Bangor, Maine. This guy is amazing.

Am I the only one who has a lump in their throat from beginning to end of this amazing show?

BTW-- this is The Frames. at least two or three of these guys are long time members of Glen's band from Ireland. a shame they couldn't have been billed as "The Frames" since no one would know who that is. because they're one of the best bands of all time.

That was the best concert I‘ve ever seen

I usually watch this every year at Christmas. for some reason I needed it today

Props to the entire strings and brass section; they've really accentuated Glen's voice and he really knew how to work them into each song.

One of my favourite vocalists! What I like about Glen is, he's always been honest in his lyrics.

Going to see you at the Cannery in Nashville on Sept 18th at the Cannery, Americana Festival with my kids. Can't wait.

You can feel the good spirit coming out of this man. So mellow and kind.

He is amazing!!! One of those guys which is even better live

Whenever I need to get inspired for my music I watch this show. It is brilliant!

Ich freue mich dieses schöne Konzert gefunden zu haben...

Thank you to all parties involved. Fantastic!

Best damn concert since....whenever. Outstanding.

He destroys those strings in "This Gift!" Great show! Glad I caught it live :-)

I truly love listening to Glen, his music is so moving and has meaning behind each songs.

Love the crescendo at the end of Her Mercy

that saxophone solo on Drive All Night was fire also....!

Notice on bird of sorrow...the attention the band gives to Glen. Beautiful.

It's Christmas time, time to watch the whole concert. Again.

We Irish love to sing and sing along, fortunately, some of us can actually sing like Glen!

LMAO DID GLEN JUST DO HIS OWN INTRO?! hahaha love that man

I remember this like it was yesterday.

Amazing Glenn....ALWAYS THE BEST!!

Exelente. Gracias por compartir.

I love how he broke his string, and handled it so smoothly.

Oh my god this is so nicely from the heart , no words

Saw "ONCE", rushed out to buy soundtrack. Saw Glen & Marketa live at a huge venue in Chicago, which of course Glen made you feel you were at an intimate night club. His latest solo album is superb, so heartfelt. He is truly our very best songwriter, singer, performer of our time!! With so much computer crap music, just take the time to listen to this extraordinary performance. I am NOT a star struck type person, but Glen is the only star I would LOVE to meet, just so I can thank him in person for the gifts he gives us. This is just PERFECT!!!

Atemberaubende Musik, mit voller Seele und Hingabe Dargebracht. Ich bin begeistert, Dankeschön für so eine Darbietung sowas von berührend. 🙏💞👏❤️🤩😪

Loved this. I haven't seen much of his stuff outside of Once. Truly awesome performer and one I would love to see live someday.

I like how Glen announced himself on the show.

My twin daughters worked for CBS at the time and they said he played before the show.We have been big fans ever since.Just saw him at Radio City this year☘️☮️

Just amazing!

Viva the memory and music of Mic Christopher! 👍🎸

thanks from the bottom of my heart!

you could hear a pin drop on that very last second....her absence felt and it was so beautiful to allow it to sing.... God bless ya Glen Hansard, how lucky we are, your music elevates our soul.

THE SAX STARTING AT 1:04.........omg! Goosebumps all the way to the marrow of my soul.

Mind blowing. Wonderful stuff, particularly "Her Mercy" from 39:45 and Springsteen's "Drive All Night" from 59:45. Loved every moment. Thanks Glen Hansard (and Stephen Cleary for sharing).
