The Divine Comedy live at The Palladium

[@AVFFilms57]

I've recently re-discovered The Divine Comedy. In my opinion, Neil is one of the most talented performers alive today... very well crafted pop music!

[@lois3356]

Came for Dante, Stayed for the music nice find

[@confessionsofanenglishlopi5292]

Neil Hannon sums it up by not only his music but the quality of his fans comments. I raise a glass to you all!

[@SM-je3dh]

To US all!

[@nickyforrest1561]

Just found this by accident, but Just love Divine Comedy hand have done for almost 20 years!! Thank you Neil & Band

[@clairecraig6377]

I was at this performance and it was incredible... but a sad omission from the recording was when Cillian Murphy came out and read an extract from his favourite book to the instrumental The Booklovers....

hero. thank you.

[@laceyknicks6863]

Thank you so much

[@RyKells]

Legend!!!

[@michaelcunningham7363]

Ah no, thanks but no thanks - it needs to be watched from the start to finish

[@jasonhudson4209]

Musically and lyrically, I doubt that it gets better than this sublime performance.

[@CapucineSky]

A cool thing those watching might like to know from someone who was there that night is that The Booklovers was also performed, and Cillian Murphy came on stage to read a bit from his favourite book. My memory has faded but The Ginger Man by J. P. Donleavy rings a bell.

[@martintabony611]

Great musicians. The young girls voice is like a thread of gold

[@scopex2749]

OUSTANDING I just LOVE 'National Express'! An underrated GENIUS👏👏👏👏👏

[@BATERO1975]

[@timnosuke]

Yes, me too. Must have listened to this over 200 times...still makes me stop in mid tooth-brushing to marvel at 1:29:50...the emotion and message and poetry of this song...
