[@philgorner9836]

Beautiful. A reminder of how so very special David was. RIP David.

[@ryanfairbrother9657]

Hard not to cry listening to this masterpiece. RIP David, you are truly missed

[@markcbb]

Goodness knows how they can replace David , the finest voice in prog , RIP David

[@dougreed2257]

Impeccable!!! So very very sad this highly talented man has tragically passed, what a loss for his family, band/friends. How can they replace him??

[@RobertFisher-x8h]

Utterly, utterly beautiful ❤. So poignant and moving.

[@nickburmanmusic]

Perfectly beautiful. You live forever in your music, David. Thank you.

[@alvinburrell]

I was there...what a concert, so emotional. And such a lovely band, they all made the effort after the concert to come and meet their fans, no egos, just genuinely nice people. Other bands could learn from them.

[@CarlosmanuelChavezayuso-gi5qy]

Great Song & Vocals 🎤🎸🎹👍👌👋

[@buffplums]

God so emotional “fill the Tyne …. Fill the Tyne “ …. So sad David we miss you so much x

[@mariakelsey-palmer5136]

What exquisite music. Gorgeous ensemble made up of so many skilled individuals. And David forevermore captured weaving it all together like no one else could.❤

[@ivc5150]

My condolences to Family, Band, and all the Big Big Train fans, who have truly lost someone special.

[@flawedsapien2115]

Absolutely beautiful. Watched this twice now. I was there on that Sunday. I knew I’d get really emotional watching this. Kept it all in check until the brass kicked in. Those supreme guys never ever fail to stir me and reduce me to tears. Sublime.

[@mapior]

Well put, sir. The brass bring tears. Such a great blend of music....

[@emjem99]

Had me in tears first time I played the album and still puts a lump in my throat and I have no idea why.

[@regantrumper3937]

Every time. Still

[@erenkoyunoglu4978]

I felt so saddened about the loss of mr. Longdon to a point that I could not watch or listen to BBT for some time. It is strange to feel something like this for someone you don’t personally know. His music, the music of BBT has this power on me. Finally today I found the will to listen to this wonderful piece again.

[@tabreperez]

This is one of the most beautiful songs I’ve ever heard. What a treasure you’ve given us. Thank you.

[@stevestewart6772]

I had the privilege of being at this gig. Almost turned me into a blubbering wreck on the day. Thanks David, you will be missed.

[@Cptidris]

I am gonna say it. best song i heard in 2019

[@merqury5]

This is the first time Ive ever heard of this band or hin following the tragisk news. My condolences to those who were close to him or allready loved this music. Its lovely and impressive.

[@marcelocarretero6416]

Estos musicos brillantes hacen que todavia no pueda dominar mis emociones. RIP bro

[@rodilhector]

Oh man , what a beautiful song !.

[@JonsBasicGaming]

That high note. David Longdon: gone too soon.

[@buffplums]

I love that bit at the end where David puts his hand on Danny’s shoulder … such a real beautiful man was David

[@MPNutricoach]

Beautiful … 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@stephencorbett2862]

I'm from this area and know how important Swan was for the people and it's community.A moving,touching song.

[@Bleyk]

I know David in real life

[@Bleyk]

I'm in the same room as him

[@Rumtoad1]

That part at 6:25 when he shows the world the type of cool human he was. RIP Mr Longdon :(

[@buffplums]

I love that really kind gesture at the end by David to Danny beautiful ❤

[@leonardowelles5580]

why was that? Has Danny something special with Swan hunter?

[@buffplums]

@@leonardowelles5580 don’t know to be honest but I have a feeling that his dad worked there.

[@mad.magirus]

David Longdon R.I.P. 😥❤️🙏

[@robertgusberti527]

And wonderfully beautiful all rolled into one. My fandom has grown. Thank you for this gift!

[@TRICO-WANDER]

Miss you Dave ❤

[@agatordominique1046]

magnifique interpretation❤❤❤❤

[@TheJeepie]

RIP David Longdon - so sad to hear of your loss

[@MrJanbalk]

Magnificent and gripping. Thank you for the emotions.

[@berryvanderputten7693]

shame on me, never heard of him until Mr Sean Webster made his album ALMOST white the song This Bad, This Low written by David Longdon, GOOSBUMPS, so i want to know more of him . what a great singer, songwriter RIP David and thanks for the music.

[@alexandrealves4517]

The music is very well played and composed with great emotion! Wonderful show!

[@davidseidell1461]

Such a beautiful song ! ❤

[@cliffpearson943]

Utterly sublime - there was dust in the air when I saw this live last year and again now, having just watched this wonderful recording. My favourite BBT track! B->

[@tonyhonour665]

Mine too.

[@simonwithers4941]

Beautiful…simply beautiful.

[@joshwolfegant8449]

This guy was so brilliant!

[@BaconIsNotBiceps]

Perfection...

[@philgorner9836]

Gorgeous. Hope and pray I can see BBT live sometime. The only band, apart from Yes in their prime, who, when I hear them, seem to coincide with a strange lumpy sensation in my throat and my eyes watering...odd that........

[@ХмеликВиктор]

Великая вещь. Драматичная, глубокая... Хорошо думать о вечном и несуетном. И что мир прекрасен и неповторим, не смотря ни на что

[@ricothewestie6963]

Goodbye David. You will be greatly missed...

[@madmanmoon4038]

R.I.P. David :(

[@TedSchoenling]

Simply lovely. This is great music, moving, complex yet simple. Strong yet soft. powerful.

[@ahall7298]

Utterly beautiful

[@graemeblack7850]

Gorgeous stuff, thanks

[@WendyBandurskiMiller]

RIP

[@MrKari59]

Rest in peace David :(

[@polobede9054]

Magnifique morceau de B.B.T. ! ! !

[@stevehodgson8841]

New fan here..jeez where have I been

[@emjem99]

So, how much have you spent on their music since discovering BBT? For me it was a small fortune but oh so worth it!

[@chomusic]

That high Eb makes me cry.

[@rrb710]

Melted my spine.

[@grahamhowes6904]

Stunning BBT at its best - will really miss that sweet toned violin of Rachel’s

[@Jovelar]

Great memories! And I can see my friends and me on the third row :D

[@angusprune2758]

Wonderful, Brought a tear to my eye again and all the memories of London 2017.

[@paper-art59]

Me too, dear Angus ♥️

[@MrBigskip]

You pair of softies.... :-) Love you both

[@cliffpearson943]

You must have had water leaking from your eyes, Langridge! B->

[@MrBigskip]

Might have Cliff. Was very dusty in there...

[@pollo641000]

[@latentgene]

Wonderful! I was there too on Saturday :)

[@reinhardahrens9664]

what a masterpiece

[@jesuscarpinteromendivil5734]

Los esperamos pronto en México.

[@StephenSweet]

Wonderful performance, wonderful song.

[@eduardovenancio4331]

Só o posso dizer, é, tudo é bonito e de qualidade, a gravação, tem muita, muita falta, talvez de meios.

[@Fredney17]

Lovely, lovely, lovely - roll on, Basinstoke.

[@Михаил-е3ф1р]

Шедевр!

[@rikiodevon]

SO PROGTASTIC BBT Are Brit Prog At Its Finest........since Genesis and Yes for this old Squonk

[@ellenmcintyre1247]

Very poignant. The father to son trade....almost nonexistant now. Pride in the Legacy, building the nation- brought tears to my eyes. So much has been lost..

[@philiphurst831]

Outstanding! So glad we were there on the Sunday. Looking forward to The Anvil. :-)

[@JeffCooper10538]

Stunning. 👍

[@njb1680]

Excellent, the song is beautifully recreated and sounds better live than on record. No mean feat for a truly great band. Looking forward to the gig in Basingstoke.

[@lupodinchiostro7497]

Fantastici! Il respiro d'autore del Prog del momento

[@Rumtoad1]

really, REALLY nice

[@MarkyMarc413]

Sounds amazing! Hopefully there's a live concert video BD or DVD released at some point, too!

[@TheMalcolm50]

The DVD is planned for later this year

[@gazbert88]

Malcolm Newington whereabouts did you hear this?

[@TheMalcolm50]

"A film version of Merchants of Light will be released on Blu-Ray in November 2018 (with a cinema premiere; see below)." Greg Spawton - Facebook site

[@TheMalcolm50]

"We are expecting to premiere our Cadogan Hall concert film on November 26th at Everyman Cinema, Kings Cross. It's a nice modern art cinema, with a bar and comfy seats. We hope that the whole band will be there for a Q and A and to say hi to any attendees. About 100 tickets should be available for the event. More news on this in the summer."

[@latentgene]

There will be just a BluRay, no DVD.

[@bridgetbox6951]

Fabulous

[@alejandrojaureguy1383]

Very delicate. And Peter Gabriel-esque or Marillion

[@hpfmusic9137]

great great great

[@bryanlavelle7941]

RIP David!

[@charliequinn160]

Very nice...as usual for BBT....

[@andrewcignatta2880]

RIP David

[@BenA718]

Kickass! When that high note comes in, reminds me of Erasure. =p

[@Mikael1984]

R.I.P. David Longdon :(

[@nicomedy2010]

RIP ;-(

[@pietoosterlee7458]

Tears enough to fill the Tyne now for David

[@MrPNPR]

My favourite from BBT. Very sad to lose all those from the line-up in 2020, but all part of the crap year that it was.

[@ashieuk]

Oh that is good.

[@billybelldrumming7568]

Wow does he sound like Gabriel 👂🏻

[@GS-ld7ol]

!!!!!!

[@healingspirit7999]

So sad David is gone... :(

[@caravann26]

It's incredible but I've heard incredible already from the real people already and I'm 50 !! support Jon Anderson 1000 hands or those mute gods put money into the hands that created the music

[@jormaraisanen581]

Komiata, komiata!

[@MrBigskip]

That's not too shabby at all is it?

[@MrPNPR]

Agree. You're not AL the software tester are you???

[@joelyagar]

Can't help thinking that perhaps BBT's best days are behind them. I long for the genius that brought us "The Underfall Yard" and parts of "English Electric". Seems a long time ago now.

[@jimhardiman3836]

Sounds like Kansas. Which is a good thing.
