I started hanging out with them and after F. Run was one of the songs on a CD they gave me to learn, the same demo that convinced Polydor — who then signed us — to come up to the rehearsal room to hear us. I remember thinking Run was a special song, way before we knew what would happen to it.
Most of the structural elements were on the demo, but it was much more indie then and shied away from the big chorus. When we recorded it, he let the anthemic side shine through. You can never put a finger on why a song connects. I remember a conversation about whether Run should be the next single, and year-old me was arguing that it was way too long, which seems ridiculous now.
After Run came out, we were in Shepherds Bush Empire. The album took off and the venues just kept getting bigger. This song was written by members of Snow Patrol — G.
Lightbody, M. McClelland, N. Connolly and J. Quinn — along with their frequent collaborator, I. And it was not certified Platinum in the UK until To me, this beautiful song is about someone dying…and encouraging someone he loves…partner?
I guess we can all make of it what speaks to us, but this is what, for me, I deeply feel and hear in it.
I love this comment. I lost my parents within the last couple of years. Losing my mom in particular was extremely painful. Hearing this song yesterday for the first time in many years, brought her right back to me. I used to listed to this song a lot when it was first released in the house I grew up in. I love the lyrics to this song, im a truck driver and u have to leave for long periods of time between visits home to be with the love of my life, she is everything to me and saying goodbye every time I leave is very hard, I can relate to this song and its meaning.
This song to me was the loss of a beloved dog. I had had for 18 yrs. This beautiful song was playing while my dog Jake and I were on the last walk we would take together.

They sure are! The band took a break after the release of 'Fallen Empires' as Gary was suffering from writer's block, later revealing that it made him feel "useless" and adding, "There's a lot of depression that is attached to it as well, because you feel like, 'Maybe the only gift I have has deserted me,' and you're kind of inconsolable really. Thankfully, he was able to overcome it with the advice of other musicians, who told him to keep writing - "even if it's jibberish".
Snow Patrol have recently hinted that they are working on new music, and in an Instagram post discussing their rescheduled tour dates, they wrote within their caption: 'tours will come with a new album which we are working on'.
