[@gillwilkinsongw]

Your comment, although two years ago, and this song brings tears to my eyes, hoping memories of your boy will keep you going through it all. Love to you.

RIP Robert, this song was played at his funeral just the perfect song for him thank you so much for this song it meant so much to my family x x x x

[@ellias9900]

RIP.

[@dublinlhad]

Great song. Shows there is a light at the end of a tunnel. Love from Dublin, Ireland.

[@fightthefairy]

This was out around the time my Gran died in 2004, and it always reminds me of her. It makes me cry! It's such a beautiful song too!!

[@Christina-ib3hy]

I'm turning it off now sorry

[@worthingSarah]

it's for oldies like me who heard it on TV soundtracks and could only make out the phrase 'light up, light up' as an identifier to find the whole track on You Tube! Thank goodness someone did post it this way :-) or I would never have found it!

[@mahie56]

Cannot know your pain. Its gets me in the heart. Keep singing.

[@victorial8764]

Driving to New Hope. Feeling completely beautiful, immortal and free. The night sky twinkling through the canopy of thick leaves. Windows down the air smells crisp and clean as it passes through long locks. Driving, the sounds of the summer night blasts foward faster and louder. I have an indie station on. This song plays. I fall in love with life not thinking it could get anymore beautiful until I hear this. The future is bright and my soulmate waits and all good things are ahead. I press the pedal just a bit faster.

[@Mr80grit]

I've been listening to love ballads since the 70's and of course "80's" and this one holds its own with the best of them. Amen for creating such a soul caressing song!

[@cookson202]

[@xavierpowers4003]

my older sister use to listen to this song all the time, so by default its stuck in my head. However, snow patrol is dope af, always been a fan of their music.

[@HellfishX88]

Xavier Powers you got the most kickass name!

[@ChantelleHodges]

To think Snow Patrol used to be my favourite band and now I never listen to them! God I miss them so much, need to start listening again!

[@Sourcecode01]

Back whem music was still music, it died shortly after :(

[@Riscira]

Absolutely amazing song. Got me through some pretty tough times :)snow patrol is the BEST!

[@deirdremathis498]

totally breathtaking!! so grateful that u understand the beauty of this song!!!

[@jonprice2605]

I'll sing it one last time for you Then we really have to go You've been the only thing that's right In all I've done. And I can barely look at you But every single time I do I know we'll make it anywhere Away from here Light up, light up As if you have a choice Even if you cannot hear my voice I'll be right beside you dear Louder, louder And we'll run for our lives I can hardly speak I understand Why you can't raise your voice to say To think I might not see those eyes It makes it so hard not to cry And as we say our long goodbyes I nearly do. Light up, light up As if you have a choice Even if you cannot hear my voice I'll be right beside you dear Louder, louder And we'll run for our lives I can hardly speak I understand Why you can't raise your voice to say Slower, slower We don't have time for that All I want is to find an easier way To get out of our little heads Have heart my dear We're bound to be afraid Even if it's just for a few days Making up for all this mess. Light up, light up As if you have a choice Even if you cannot hear my voice I'll be right beside you dear

[@carriered4715]

Jon Price - Thankyou So Much for posting the lyrics, I was looking everywhere and couldn't find them, 😊👍💗

I have been listening to this for years...and even in the crappiest of situations it still gives me an uplift....keep yer crack and hash

[@danid5503]

I mean, this song is everything...🖤

[@dylanford8634]

finally i found this song!

[@timothymcclure196]

elizabeth ford oh my gosh I know it kept playing in my head but I couldn't find it!

[@Miskeen20]

+Timothy McClure hehehe same It took me ages finally

[@somag6810]

Finally I found it by searching with key words 'one last' 'light up light up'. Initially I tried to search in google by just humming as I thought google would recognise the frequency and show the song in the results. But it didn't work. The adrenaline rush is totally different when you are able to find your favourite song after many years.

[@sarina9828]

Me too like finally!

[@veronica3986]

I KZbind the lyrics and found it 👍

[@CoCoCat1234]

omigosh, every time i hear this on the radio i almost cry. amazing song.

[@michellebigham8715]

I lost my grandson, and this song says it all😢🥹

[@MegaLewDawg]

They played this song at my college leaving party in the background with loads of pictures of friends in college. I am a guy but I have no shame in admitting I nearly cried.

[@cazaxox]

Love this song, it brings a tear to my eye each time :'(

[@Bethrenee]

This song ALWAYS brings tears to my eyes :(

[@drewhyland9574]

Honestly this is a masterpiece R.I.P Granny Nan Uncle Billie Aunty joanie And my friends Jimmy and Del I will miss you all dearly😢😘

[@frenchfrie0x0]

[@amberslade1657]

[@spiralstatic8]

This song is so beautiful.

[@cora-annholloway1077]

Love to you all I hope your memories give you peace in your hearts.

[@bananas1and2]

This song has been running through my head for the past three days for no reason at all. I quite like it.

[@mamaschili]

I am a fan. I just recently saw the TV SHOW SMASH. And fell in love with the song Katharine Mcphee sang with them- LIGHT UP. Fantastic.

[@TMcLure]

Intense ending to Mad Dogs! Loved the stare Quinn gave down the camera as he washed off his war paint. This song playing in the background was inspired.

[@danielleshore4743]

so this is the song that participated in my tear making when Bonnies grandma died and Damon lost Katherine😭😳😢😣😭

[@whitewitch1980]

I so love this song so much one of my many many favourites!

[@teresaroberts3113]

I love this song 😁

[@KeithShap]

I love this song. Took me a while to find it. Thanks again for posting it this way. wouldn't have found it any other way. I even tried googleing the lyrics, came up with nothing. Thanks man.

[@musicrocks43]

I watch the show SMASH sometimes but I had forgotten this song and that show made me remember it! :)

[@ravennevermore6298]

Make me cry every time :'(

[@Ashl3yRul3s]

Mad Dogs is 1 of the greatest short series ive ever watched, fact! I don't want Quinn to die :( he's such an amazing character

[@MichelleB2b]

The song meaning according to composer/writer Mr. Lightbody, is directly quoted as follows: ''It's really about family. It's wanting to protect them from all the people in the world that want to destroy. It's about running away and keeping them safe not about fighting which perpetuates the violent cycle. It's a hopeful song.'' He goes on to say, "Its about wanting to protect them (family) from all the bad things in the world. It’s an apocalyptic song. Can we go somewhere safe when everything goes mad? The opening line, ‘I’ll sing it one more time for you’, is about singing my kid to sleep. I don’t have a kid, but I hope I do one day”. Reality is one own perception, therefore the song is open to your own interpretation.

[@geraldinekelly8447]

❤❤😊

[@EponaLives]

found this version of the song on `resuce me` .... best tv series ever ....

[@marilynsmall4741]

Yes, indeed.

[@KhmaiBodian559]

i love this song more than everyone else does

[@Dillepirk]

Best song from Snow Patrol. EVER. Thanks.. :)

[@dmc41987]

Awsome song, thanks for uploading.

[@hopelessBaaka]

*sobbing*

[@klaritydawn]

Beautiful song, I read how the song came about (sad). It always means something different to each of us that's the Beauty of Music. To me it is my sisters & me as little girls trying to RUN from our childhood some of us able to SCREAM & some us unable to speak for ourselves so we found ourselves separated on more than one occasion. (Even if you cannot hear my voice, I'll be right beside you dear). The only thing I've done right in life I felt back then was to fight to protect them.

[@savanah1436]

ive loved this song forever!

[@TWISTEDBULLET]

Best song they've ever done.

[@cesaros11]

'Rescue Me' S02E10...awesome song to an end of an awesome episode. TV shows and Music just arent the same now.

[@jas7910]

Amazing song!

[@Lillysings2]

I first heard a short version of this song on the new show "Smash", but I really do love Snow Patrol's extended version. Thanks for posting :D

[@lesliemonster92]

One of the greatest songs I've ever heard. I do enjoy listening to Leona Lewis' cover on occasion, but nothing beats the raw emotion and originality of this first version. :) Gotta love Snow Patrol.

[@MyNaMeIsLiAm16]

You are a wonderful person...and I adore you!

[@vonniekrei]

i really love this song!

[@gnryeah]

I'm not a fan of snow patrol that much, but this song is what I call 'modern excellence'

[@robertaattwood288]

[@MonykaBolinha]

I loved their concert here in ROCK IN RIO LISBOA (Portugal) ;)

[@PsychoGirl19]

Thanks for calling it 'Light up'! I didn't knew the real title of the song, nor the band that made it. This made it much easier to find!

Lovely song.

[@kimberleyallen1903]

Absolute anthem

[@thinkingofgerard]

ahhhh obsession!!!

[@mariehansler]

Thank-You for posting it the way you did. I did not hear the word run in the song at first, and the only way to find songs you don't know, is to check by some of the commonly used words in the lyrics...again thank-you. Good job..me and 89'000 other people obviously knew why you posted it that way :)

[@PortCityAcoustics]

YES! I just saw that episode now and I had to hear the original again. I actually like the rendition SMASH made better. Something about the way she sings it just makes it sound even more beautiful especially when she hits those notes towards the end of the song.
