The Frames - Falling Slowly

[@ViolinistTim]

I hadn't heard of the Frames since I heard this song on "So You Think You Can Dance" a few years ago. I'm glad I watched that episode. Their music is the first to ever make me cry. Beautiful.

[@Jammerkevin]

Saw the movie last night. THe musical chemistry between Glen and Marketa was undeniable. I've followed Glen's career even before his motion picture debute in "The Commitments" Some advice to the masses, go see these two talented people perform magic on the big screen,. You won't regret it!!

[@littlefilipino]

I just got back from Irelan (music group) and saw the movie. I agree, it kicked ass!! I fell in love with this song (as well as Marketa) and...god!! Great song. I can play it on the guitar....

[@katesounds]

przepiękny utwór, prosty, osobisty, prawdziwy, można słuchać bez końca.... piosenka o miłości, bez słowa "miłość" - super komentarz! Podoba mi się ta wzbogacona wersja o skrzypce :) jeszcze więcej emocji. oczywiście oryginalna filmowa również. The Framse - "The Cost" - niesamowity album, dawno nie słuchałam tylu piosenek na jednej płycie, które by mi się podobały.

[@jNoSocks]

There needs to be more groups like this. Glen and Markéta are incredible in Once, and the songs they wrote are so heart warming. I'd never heard The Frames, but this is great.

[@SophieBear80]

What a performance.. Came on pandora and I love the song dearly so I came across this and fell in love again.

[@Mechyfte]

I love his guitar. Shows us his passion! We saw the movie "Once" three days ago and became fans. Great people! thanks for the music!

[@fcs16948]

This is such an outstanding song. Lyrics and music like this are, sadly, a rarity today.

[@manunited910]

The harmony between their voices is flawless, and the violin along with that light rock feeling and beat makes this a great song.

[@Jammerkevin]

Do you all remember Glen as the guitarist in the '90s movie, "The Commitments"? Another brilliant music-based movie which features great Irish musicians.

[@maricimo]

I love this band, and I can't find their albums anywhere. It's so sad, because they're just so amazing. And he sounds like Cat Stevens... :P

[@askjewel]

Beautiful lyrics and beautiful music--so often you don't get that anymore in today's version of music!!

[@MrRiot1992]

After all this years looking for this song and I find the same version that in some point I heared in VH1 back in the 2000

[@layisblessed]

Heard this song on SYTYCD...coupled with the amazing dancing...absolutely beautiful!!!!

[@katemclaughlin2604]

beautiful as always.. the frames are amazing.. love you

[@Prolly78]

a great song performed by a great band too

[@RobinLull]

I have to sincerely thank Glen, Marketa and the makers of this film. My wife and I are in a VERY similar situation as musicians and in life. (except our ending is that we are together). This story is our story in so many ways. Falling Slowly fits my thoughts to her dead on. Kudos and blessings....you touched our hearts and even more importantly, after years of waiting to hear my wife sing, this song gave her a voice. I've waited years...... Thank you so much.. -R-

[@Karen4582]

Saw them last night in Hollywood-a great show...nobody wanted to let them go home!

[@ChelseyMiller]

I love this song. When I first heard it I cried. It hits the heart every time I listen to it.

[@geniennis]

Brilliant fantastic emotional.Added to my all time favourites. Thanks and congrats Marketa and Glen this Oscar winning song and lyrics.

[@chroniclizz]

i love the movie and needless to say LOVE this song. Both versions are greatness but the perfection of the violin in this version just kicked it up a notch.

[@BlackyBG77]

in 20 hours glen is playing in prague. concert is sold out... first time for me to see this guy, first time to listen to falling slowly live... amazing music. most beautiful love song ever

[@rumanhore]

it is impossible to hate this song. and it NEVER gets annoying. Great music.

[@msully]

You're spot on! This is the original. It's brilliant!!! Was great on Jools holland the other nite too!

[@anmendicott]

This song is AMAZING!!!! My daughter has had it used in several of her dance classes and I just love it!!!

[@UsedDoor]

I just heard about this band about less than 5 minutes ago. And I already fall in love with 'em

[@martyclark]

Simply awesome. Bless you, Glen.

[@DavidSpain69]

what a lovely snare sound! great song

[@GeorgieGirl66]

These guys are so talented!!!! What a beautiful song!!!!

[@1sha23]

SYTYCD always have a good selection of songs. wouldn't know that the frames existed without them. I am now a fan. :)

[@trazalca8480]

simply brilliant - and just when I thought there was no more good music to look forward to. THIS was refreshing, jolting me into pure inspiration. Thank you.

[@sephyobsessed17]

Jonathan and Karla not only embodied the characters masterfully, but the routine brings tears to my eyes every time. They captured the spirit of the song and depicted it's story beautifully.

[@PedroSteckecilo]

Ooo, an excellent version of this song. It has some nice depth to make up for the loss of raw passion that was in the movie version.

[@Rosh1962]

Only one of them! Big Love and seen twice! Heaven!

[@SpatsyPatty]

That's where I heard it too. Beautiful dance, beautiful song. I love it.

[@KiwiDork]

I'm afraid I have to fully agree with Martin. Brilliant and gorgeous song, but when it's just Glen and Marketa, it's like a love confession to one another. Simply beautiful.

[@Jammerkevin]

I love the movie version of "Falling Slowly" but this one ha a fullness to its sound. Nicely rounded out, the bass and drums provide a nice bottom to the melody :-)

[@Mystic4132]

First heard this song by Kris Allen on American Idol and loved it =-) Beautiful song!!!

[@kvwriter2]

Drives straight to the soul. Excellent!

[@StigRossi]

Thumbs up if you're Irish and think its amazing that our little country of 5 million people can create so many amazing musicians

[@Ranggarn]

God... cant stop my tears from falling Saw it on So You Think You Can Dance Perfect song to a perfect routine

[@AdindaSebastian]

what a great music and lyric ever!!!excellent !!

[@haplo781]

This is the most beautiful thing I've ever heard.

[@mcgirrmichael]

Well done outspan, U have made all independent artists in Ireland proud, Michael

[@hellomynameis10]

I know!! that was my favorite dance of the night!! I called and voted for them like a million times.

[@Lilyofthevalleyice]

A truly beautiful song. Absolutely entrancing ^^

[@lizzyleong]

[@sarahjaneM3]

[@yolis2007]

[@LFCxBIF]

It is this song they won the Academy award for.. And so deserved.. It's amazing!

[@freezefire695]

[@amybesse]

Great song!! It goes well with Jacob's feelings... for Team Swizerland Day!!

[@stanwellis]

I was introduced to this song in a movie. Quite amazing I must say.

[@katemc405]

[@winterlude]

[@MRmad4tar]

arguably the greatest song written by an irish singer/songwriter

[@ash07fla02]

I love this song sooooo much! I loved Once just as much! :)

[@cheeseychessnut]

really love this album...and the band

[@donalcollins1763]

funny story..went to a frames gig in tramore circa 1999...met this guy after the gig and looked for a signature on my top..however didnt realise was wearing a prodigy top(white top with circles)...he refused to sign...respect...

[@Metal4life0102]

Holy crap! Ive been looking for this song forever!!!

[@4316rodney]

just scored 2 tickets to see them at the showbox in seattle tonight...stoked!

[@kriskahn21]

love, love this song...it's so beautiful

[@dutchinny]

perfectly describes my sentiments right just now..... i've played this at least 20-some times in a row and i can't get enough......

[@micsomers]

It's about time after two decades that The Frames are getting what they deserve. It's taken a while and when it came they are modest. A credit to our country

[@Masonyy18]

that's where i heard it too! i can't stop listening to it!

[@guavagirl822]

first off, this song is beautiful, it made me cry. second, i had a guy friend and a girl friend who figured this whole thing out before the music was even out and they sounded glorious. this song is truly a song from the heart. i will cry whenever i hear this song

[@steven6666600000]

wow...this was beautiful...

[@niamhflynn14]

now thats what i call a shiver-giver! LOVE it :D

[@thechasedlife]

I loved his movie. It was so good. And sad. The music is beautiful.

[@xoxBethxox09]

Wow. Lovely. Just came across this. It's fantastic. :D

[@Lightbreeze89]

Ahh!!! Amazing, love this song!

[@rcgirl32331]

This song is amazing! It turns my day around if im having a bad one. :)

[@LestatAguir]

@kabluwi The Frames is the band Glen formed almost 20 years ago in Ireland. The Swell Season is Glen and Marketa's project. The other members of the Frames play along with Glen and Marketa in tours of the Swell Season so it can be said that The Swell Season is The Frames + Marketa, although they are two different projects with two different styles. This is the Frames version of Falling Slowly that came out on one of their albums.

[@SchnatzTube]

@rgnps I agree with you... have heard the glen and marketa version until today, and at the first time hearing this version I feel the song much more! It's full of melody!

[@Nadia2015]

i was asking everyoone what this song was called when i heard it on that show yesterday, so good i found it!

[@SgaVorGirl]

I heard this on SUTUCD last night and I had to look it up. Its AWESOME!

[@VioletLia]

Its a fantastic song. Amazing! (:

[@AbcdwxyzSam]

Love this song, it's hard not to sing along with your hearts content...!

[@msully]

Was originally done with the frames and Marketa. There was a debate just before the oscars as to whether it qualified for the category because it was originally recorded before the film and there was thoughts that it was outside the scope of the whole film. Thankfully this wonderful song got the focus it deserved. Well done to all involved.

[@Lolland]

One of the greatest songs...

[@momoec]

AMAZING singer! This guy is all heart

[@missapplecupcake]

perfect harmony... Love them

[@CurryFeatures]

I commented on this very video over a year ago... this song still hasnt lost its charm :)

[@manyanggodance]
