Harmony is a global language,
music knows no borders and it floods all hearts on earth with love / feelings / memorys ...
like You, thank you Glen and all musicians on this planet

[kevinmgathright]

It's like watching Van Gogh paint, or Michangelo scuplt... Man, what a magnificent display of raw emotion through the lens of a true artist. Glen is an honest, master craftsman and to witness the inner workings of his writing process is such a gift to us. Thank you!

I would’ve killed to be able to just be in that same cafe my lord. Such magic I can’t even put it in words

[tabithatamaraa]

i feel blessed every time i listen to this wonderful human's music. he is truly beautiful and can't help but move those who listen to him. it's like he sings for his own survival, but it also helps his listeners make it through.

[Daily_with_jake]

Beautiful to see the free flow of his creativity. Can’t wait to find out the adventures he has taken to create his next work

[mechaphoenix]

Music is talking between souls, which is human commonality, obove nations and pilitics commonality. Thats why I love the Irish although I am not Irish. Kudos to Glen for this recording.

[ColinsMom]

This is such a wonderful example of why he is the incredible talent, and incredible person, that he is. Thank you for this.

[edwarddaniell]

Race to the Bottom was so beautifully written I loved it

[MkDedalus]

the truth of a pure soul, the voice that shines above words, pure magic, straight to the heart. pure beauty. the simplicity of a wonderful artist

[robertflanagan]

Glen is best when singing about lost love. Or love gone bad. Soulful man

[SomeOldVideos]

Oh my god, Don't Settle is unreal. I've seen Glen 4 times and I can't wait to again.

[charlieni]

The arrangement of Race to the Bottom is an absolutely beautiful and transcendent piece of mixing of culture.

[rachelbodenbender]

Saw Glen a couple years ago - best live show I've ever seen - and just bought tickets today to see him in September. He's really incredible live - if you get the chance, definitely go.

[alteregi.]

My favourite singersongwriter after DR

[MPusatory]

Bravo! I've been following La Blogotheque for like 10 years now and it's so cool to see how it's grown and developed. It's the perfect vessel for something like this. A great combination.

~ from the beginning of Glen's first incredible solo til it's end, really stirs up such deep emotions within me... so overwhelming, i'm brought to tears and i don't know why... but isn't that the true beauty of music ? to make us feel, really feel and ponder after, as those emotions linger long after the music stops... awww how i'm smiling thru my tears, as the unseen voice states after, "awww I need your cup of tea!" i so need a hug, even more as his second magical performance begins, my gosh, that striking melody and his captivating voice and his meaningful lyrics, his life experiences that inspire him and insightful narrations, all shaking me to the core of my soul and even more his last brilliant performance with astounding Khoshravesh Brothers, all of them leaving me breathless and wanting more !!! oh how very much i enjoyed this amazing presentation and first introduction for me, to this amazing artist and man, Glen Hansard... a heartfelt ♡ thank you, Anti-Records for sharing and i'm surely getting my pre-order in as soon as possible !
