This guy is impossible to dislike. So much talent, such a beautiful touch.

[@56suntan]

as one of mikes original passengers from back in the day where there might only be 5 of us in a pub listening in wonder to his songs and wondering why no one else got it .........its such a pleasure to see him fulfill his dream of playing in central park ....you can hear the emotion in his voice in every song .....I love this show ...it shows what an amazing performer he is .....a humble wonderful guy with a gift ....

[@V_UA]

One man, one guitar, this is all you need

[@juanroa5961]

In spanish... We have a song that say that... by Sandro de America...

Man... Riding to New York always gets to me. It says such a heartwarming but sad story... A real one.

[@userSchlonsch]

I‘ve seen this man standing alone on a huge stage with just an acoustic guitar and get a crowd going like he was AC/DC. Mike is just incredible

[@guenneboge6876]

I don't understand how anyone can dislike this video with music coming straight from the heart💕

[@teh1993]

OMG, seeing this video on my "recommended by youtube" page today saved my day. I was having a crappy week, but the moment I clicked on the video I saw myself (black girl with red bracelet on the front left side) and I realized how happy I was, even though I went through hell and back to be there. Music will keep me going. :')

[@ThumperT]

Stefany Daltro That's an awesome comment, and I loved reading it! Don't give up. Keep on smiling! :) Music unites us all.

[@e_shoemaker]

Such power; just a guitar and his voice..

[@KZ-le8lg]

Amazing poetry, that's what his songs are..

[@virginialopez5057]

Loved this live at Central Park!!!! He cannot stop being himself!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Just Great!!!

[@davidbrice9494]

I hope someone sings the I hate song for an audition for x-factor,that would be brillient

[@phucyfillk5535]

I remember going to this concert! Liam Bailey was the opener. It was one of the best days of my life!

[@zhiyarali557]

This is music. this is how you describe a musician. he express and translate his feelings into music. real story and original stuffs. also, a humble person. love him ❤

[@taniapurdie]

Mike you truly are amazing. Just found this and you blow me away every time!

[@buddyjetta]

This was the best day of that summer, I was there for my 18th birthday. It was a beautiful surprise!

[@xFreedom01]

I see Passenger in Madrid. Pure and Great Talent. Respect ur talent so much

[@danaa4508]

[@xFreedom01]

Si! Fue genial, en la sala arena por youtube debe haber algun video. Realmente pura energia con solo guitarra y voz

[@koketsomahlangu6890]

Just love it when he says THANK YOU SO SO SO MUCH. and when he says ONE MORE TIME AND I PROMISE I WILL YOU ALONE. sweet man :)

[@colinherrington1965]

This is my Favourite Passenger song. Like the way he abandoned playing the guitar 🎸 when he was obviously not happy with the tuning, not easy to do. Well done man 😊

[@klausjakobs4516]

No big band, just a man with his guitar and a beautiful voice that brings emotions with every word ... Best wishes to Passenger ...

[@augustineyapp4273]

I His voice, the guitar and the spontaneity of the New York crowd makes for a powerful mix❤❤❤

No Hearts on Fire, it was too HOT? lol... really thank you for this brilliant capture of another stunning touching performance by Mike Passenger, cherished songs & deep words, sharing struggles, as we all have, bittersweet story about Riding to New York. Thanks for your strength & bearing the heat & bringing this really neat performance to those of us not able to make the east coast!

[@darrenevans5830]

I love this guy he's amazing and I've got my tickets booked for his show in wellington, New Zealand in January, i just can't wait

[@aligaming135]

I went to the Wellington show, it was pretty cool..

[@darrenevans5830]

yep i loved it have you heard his new song A Kindly Reminder

[@johnny_pilot]

OMG what a performance! This is one of the most captivating and passionate performances I've ever seen, and I just love this guy. Somehow, he seems to radiate to the world the feelings and emotions that I feel too, so he kinda helps me to feel that I've 'made it' in life ... even though I'm actually struggling to hang on to the bottom rung right now! I just have to listen to the beauty of this man's voice, marvel at his passion and watch his calming smiles. And this is all from a straight guy with three beautiful daughters! Mike Rosenberg, you are heaven on earth! And thank you, Thumper T, for uploading this crystal-clear HD video. :-)

[@ThumperT]

Awesome comment, Johnny! Thanks so much for the compliment. You may enjoy a couple of other Passenger videos on my channel. Feel free to look around! (Columbus, 2014 is still my favorite. The way he interacts with the crowd was pure magic!) Take care!

[@Dg2daa1952]

Ein tolles Video, Passenger ist super... Fred from Berlin

[@MrSidejobs001]

Thanks

[@romaopacheco6168]

beautiful

[@sonicfoxxmusic4281]

Observe a little slice of genius at 15.55.....this amazing artist tells you the story of a guy who has cancer and is travelling to New York for one last time to say farewell and make up for lost time with his folks... and suddenly whilst playing his guitar during his performance, a string decides to go out of tune(what bad luck)....and one guy starts laughing out loud...what does Mike Rosenburg do??....he cuts the guitar off(must be thinking F*CK YOU PAL!!) and sings two verses without an instrument and ends the song very gently with all the precision of the perfect pro.................with MASSIVE applause!!!! I, FOR ONE, SALUTE YOU SIR. ....and as for RICHARD, the guy who laughed at his mis-fortune...i don't know the dude's name but Richard...... or DICK(which seems appropriate) must now feel a bit of an....idiot,...... knowing this moment of genius on Passenger's part is going to be inter-mingled all-time with the laughter of DICK!!! Shameless little plug but worthy of it..youtube JASMINE LAMPORT AUDIOS....same thing as above happened to Jasmine at one of her small gigs...a string had to be adjusted halfway through one of her songs(two dudes at the back sniggered...then the look on their faces was priceless!...Jasmine put that guitar down and nailed it "acapella".

[@citationjeff]

Thanks Thumper for posting this.

[@robfinlay2071]

nice footage! i liked the fact you raised the camera when the man's head got in the way during the sound of silence, instead of leaving it there like most other people do! thanks for posting this amazing performance.

[@ThumperT]

Rob Finlay Thanks, man. :) I tried to get the best footage I could. I'm glad someone noticed! Haha. Take care. :)
