Knickers song goes multilingual - yay! Great video!

I do remember those revolving doors at supermarkets including at Tesco and Morrisons before they got replaced. I used to go round them a lot then got told off by my mum. Still I would like to go to Barcelona as it’s such an incredible city. You should do Madrid. 😊

[@carlwilson1772]

That was brilliant G. I loved every second and it looks like you did too. The metro in Barcelona looks stunning as does the architecture. Barcelona is Catalan speaking so... Quan ets al Mercat Nou et poses les calces al cap, et poses les calces al cap, I tu crides:- Picats esponjosos!!

[@Thornaby37]

Brilliante !!! Really enjoyed this I have to love those announcements on the red line. Very musical

[@GLovesTrains]

Gracias! 😄

[@richardsanders7906]

I've only ever been to Barcelona once and that was on a school trip in 1966. It shows how times have changed because the reason for our visit was to attend a performance at the bull ring. Can you imagine the furore if a school did that now?

[@AdriaOliSal]

Thankfully, bull fighting has been banned in Catalonia since 2010 so it would not be possible anyway! (In the rest of spain it's still legal though)

[@MichaelSebastianTodd]

i really enjoyed watching this & im loving the Barcelona Metro & the trains & Stations look really modern compaired to the Metro systems here in the UK like the London Underground & Tyne & Wear Metro to name a few & Barcelona looks really amazing & im loving the scenery awesome vlog

[@jacobporrett]

Looks like you had fun G. Never been to Spain myself.

[@MarkBinning]

Nice to see you on Friday, the underground looks very clean in Barcelona.

[@Steggs]

A very unique architectural design in Barcelona, I'd love to travel on rail abroad but doing it solo would give me anxiety so I guess we got you doing it for me 🤣😥

[@GLovesTrains]

Haha I know the feel but then again I used be like that with trains here 😂

[@ElijahsTransport]

Great video G! Interesting video in Barcelona!

[@birdsbodger]

Passeig de Grace is burned into my brain after watching that! I don't know Spanish but it sounds religious. Have a happy Sunday!

[@Sim0nTrains]

This has to be the most entertaining 'I'm Spinning Around' I've ever seen, Brilliant Video G

[@GLovesTrains]

Haha thanks Cyber!

Awesome Video G Loves Trains 😄😄

[@allanmorton6022]

Very enjoyable video, and good to see somewhere different. Nice to see how modern the system is. Keep spinning G!

[@sirsergio89]

11:44 sadly that sums up Barcelona in a nutshell these days, hope you had a great time besides, G!!

[@davidaarthur]

5.00 I suppose when everything is in one zone, there's no need to check your ticket again on exit.

Im bad enough navigating when I can understand the language so you did better than I would, Im terrible on Google maps 😅

Great Video as always G love to see your travels

[@andywright3450]

Hi G great video cu next one

[@09weenic]

You should try spinning around on the Glasgow subway 😂

[@tonypritchard1345]

wow cant remember a metro first time i went 1970 i think great vid G

[@stevebeal73]

Many of the signs on the metro etc in Barcelona are in Catalan. not Spanish. For example "Mercat" is Catalan for market - the Spanish being "Mercado." Hope that clears things up! any thanks for a great vlog.

[@leeosborne3793]

Very nice! It's a long time since I went to Barcelona, but I thought it was a great city and I enjoyed the Metro. :)

[@daseteam]

You have certainly upped your game, G! I hope to see more countries in Europe!

[@TimothyWorel-xj9he]

If you ask the driver how long the next bus will be, he'll reply "treinta y seis pies"

[@helloahla239]

I love the concept, you should do the spinning around in big European cities like Paris, Berlin or even London, can be funny

[@christopherbraiden6713]

Thanks for the Spanish video G,looks really special down there,very clean too. The city looks awesome shame about the prat!!😎🚉🚉🚉🚉🇬🇧💚

[@GLovesTrains]

Haha thanks! 😀

[@Leonard_Smith]

Your mangling of the Spanish language is worthy of much praise 👍

[@christiantravels]

Hello! From the Airport you could have taken the Aerobus straight to Pg de Gracia for 6 euros lol, but then again the vlog is GLovesTrains and not GLovesBuses hahaha. Mercat Nou... hmm sketchy area. Valcarca, from the bridge in the background, you could have walked a bit and get to Parc Güell, nice park (but you have to pay to get in) Nice to catch the new Metro trains in Barcelona, I have yet to see them, I rarely use the metro around here. Hope you had a lovely time in Barcelona. :)

[@AL5520]

The Aerobús is 7.25€ now and for that I would have taken the train that stops at Passeig de Gràcia, and certainly not the metro that takes too long but the idea is to use the metro. What horrified me was gettingbthe tiurist trap 2 days card instead of the cheaper T-día.

[@stephenreardon2698]

So used to seeing you on British stations in drab weather, that the final shot almost looked green screened. Hope the rest of your time there was also as sunny.

[@teecefamilykent]

Brilliant video ya daft so n so!

[@TheSugarDaddy1]

Loving this international G hope you do a video on the hotel room and go to Amsterdam one day

[@imsbvs]

Looks great fun spinning around the sights of Barcelona ... have you identified what is in Spanish and what is in Catalan? Enjoy!

[@theshowmanuk]

In the 80s you could get off the train and have a drink at the bar on the station platform. Usually a glass of vino tinto, or in my case a carajio (coffee and Spanish brandy) or a "copa de hombres" The "thing of men" while smoking a Ducados. You would definitely be spinning araound ! Times have changed ! Ha ha. Bon Dia ! Absorb the wonders of Gaudi s surreal architecture. He was a genius !

[@GLovesTrains]

Lol! Buenos dias 😄

I'd have got the train not the metro from the airport especially as you hit PdG on first spin haha and avoid the metro to/from airport as you can then buy a T-Casual for 12 euros (not valid to airport via the metro)

[@evangaines2303]

First time in Spain, wonder if anyone on the platforms didn't become suspicious of you.

[@donovanchilvers8564]

Did your partner have a McDonald's did I see, what did they get ? Anything different in Barcelona than uk

[@tobysamuelson2674]

Your lucky you didn't get robbed! Barcelona is extremely dangerous

[@T--kf6gs]

That's exaggerated. Barcelona is safe, but it does have problems with pickpockets, especially in certain places.

[@tobysamuelson2674]

I wish it was exaggerated friend, unfortunately Barcelona is the second worst city for robberies in Europe Belgium takes No1 spot. 50% of prison inmates in Catalonia are foreign...

[@T--kf6gs]

@tobysamuelson2674 The majority of those robberies are non-violent (think pickpocketing a phone from a back pocket), although that is still shameful. General alertness such as keeping your belongings close to you and not using the back-pocket is enough for you not to have to worry. I do hope they fix this problem soon though.. Anyway, have a nice day.

[@tobysamuelson2674]

How modern is that Barcelona Metro! It is really impressive. "Spinning Around (with a suitcase) on the Barcelona Metro..." 😆

[@BeakersAreCool]

Wonderful vlog G, Loved it when you said ' The Spanish G is coming out', I was laughing for quite a while !!!, loving the Spanish 'knickers' song, Barcelona is so beautiful, you would think with all those stations on the map that you would hit one but alas no, isn't life strange/wonderful. Looking forward to the next one, stay safe.

[@MrGreatplum]

Great video, G! Looks like a great metro! Also impressed you now know the knicker song in 3 languages! 😂

[@ReecesTrains]

Nice to see you spinning around in Spain! 😂 Great video! It'll be interesting to see the different types of trains they have down there as the vlogs come out!

Thanks! Enjoyed riding different trains 👍

Thanks I appreciate that 👍

[@alanharrison]

Had my pocket picked in Passeig de Gracia station The helpful Spanish guy who came to my aid was none other than the director of the Metro. He was not happy that a foreigner had been robbed on his metro! He gave me a tour of the control room under Sagrada Familia.

[@hermitageroad4713]

it looks very clean and tidy G

[@bobbythedesertwalker594]

Barcelona is so beautiful! That saxophone playing in the station was so enchanting! So cool 😎

[@TransportVloggerIan]

1:35 It was at that moment that G thought, you know what, I am gonna channel my inner Ian and say there's some letters that really shouldn't be together hahaha 8:13 And now introducting Spanish With G

[@GLovesTrains]

Spanish with a Wigan accent 😂

[@MartiLestonSendra]

Passeig de Gràcia isn’t in Spanish it’s in Catalan!!!

[@MartiLestonSendra]

Most things in Barcelona are written in Catalan

[@EssexWolf1993]

One can’t help but notice the amount of graffiti on the metro. Especially at the station where you did your “Knickers on yer head” song.

[@nudgenudgewinkwink3212]

Reminds me of the Singapore. underground which is awesome btw.

[@joelc1285]

L1 line's recently retired older trains, were manually opened at stations with a lever, and ride quality was like trains from few decades back. Quite fun!

[@djtraxxehv1058]

I have been in Barcelona about 14 years ago. Nice city to be among others

Great vlog G and the metro stations & trains looked really modern and have a great time for the rest of your holiday i did also notice the graffiti though
