In 2013 my daughter used this gorgeous song as her wedding march. She has since passed away, in 2017, after a heart transplant. This song reminds me of a day she could happily celebrate after so many days spent fighting to live.
When my wee son was stillborn and clung to life in his incubator in Neonatal ICU for a number of days in 2013 I would quietly sing this to him through my tears. He was given no hope by the ‘experts’. He’ll be 9 this year and he’s my best friend!
Same here buddy. My 2 boys was born way 2 early, nearly death a couple of Times, many tears.... No hope, now 7 years old and the best thing to ever happen to me
@@bollmats lovely positive story my man! Nothing beats that feeling of babies overcoming the odds. When we look back years later, although we don’t forget what they went through, time does heal.
Your comment has brought me to tears. I’m so sorry for your loss. Just know she is somewhere still singing this song. When ever you sing it you are not alone ❤️
I h❤can't like the post. I love you and the positivity in your soul. It's hard. Show up everyday. Zero never gone. They are never gone. They are in my heart. They're in my soul. You were here I am here they will never be forgotten❤ I stake my soul on it. Someone is on point...
I admire how he still lights up while singing this song the same way as we do everytime this song plays. This song brings back memories of simpler times, of good times. Times that have made me who I am, for better or for worse. This song is golden innocence and all good things that come with it.
I have Bi Polar and life can be so challenging at times. I've read many of these comment and cried. My heart goes out to all of you. Thankyou for sharing and for your honesty. Love is all you need ....❤❤❤
For my wife and her mental health issues. I wish I could just play this and lay alongside her. I love you so much Jules. I'm here for you. xxx Great song.
redstripe.ch classical music isn’t timeless it’s an outlet for snobs to pretend their opinions are more cultured than the general public’s. In the end what is or isn’t ‘timeless’ is completely subjective to each persons opinion. No need to discredit someone’s musical preference just because you think memorizing dead people’s names makes you an intellectual.
When my dog was at the end of life and he did not know what was going on. He was as thin as when we rescued him from the streets many years earlier. I did not want to let go. I would lay down with him on my chest and we chase cars. He made me so human.
So so hard to let go I know so well Mine was a little black cat called Dewey he was my world He taught me it was ok to love again He was so funny and silly had him from a kitten Reacued so many loved them all but Dewey well he was my boy Just before his third birthday a really high fever in two hours it was over He would twitch when he slept So i would tell him to stop chasing cars I know it hurts Jenny 😒
My wife LIVED with breast cancer for 14 years. This song made us cry and rejoice all 14 years as she fought so hard. I and the world lost her 8 months ago. In our 41 years together since age 15 we’ve been moved by many songs. Thank you for this gift of your artistry!
SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS MY FRIEND, BUT REMEMBER YOUR WIFE STILL LIVE,S ON IN YOUR HEART SO STAY STRONG, ENJOY LIFE FOR THAT IS WHAT SHE WOULD HAVE WANTED FOR YOU. PEACE TO YOU ALL MY FRIEND'S. 😎✌️🏴
Another one, narcissistic people who always want attention and will do anything to get it, WTF, this video is not about you or your loss, but why do people like you have these narcissistic values that you must turn everything to you? This is about a video for people to enjoy and to not hear about your loss which has NOTHING to do with this song
How can Gary sing a well known (and older) song and make it sound brand new....ALL THE TIME . I know the answer....because he is MAGNIFICENT! I know I'm not the only one who never, ever gets tired of this song.
2009, Nice (France), U2 concert in the middle of a hot summer, I am so excited to finally listen to U2 live. Bono jumps on stage to introduce the first part band : Snow Patrol. Never heard of them before and honestly did not even checked for the band who'd play the first part. Then Snow Patrol start to play... Chasing Cars - a song I heard and loved on the radio a couple of months before. No youtube, no shazam, barely decent internet back then, I could not even remember the lyrics and I had given up on figuring out who plays this song. The joy I felt when I heard this guitar... I truly felt that at this moment I was exactly where I was supposed to be and I was happy.
This reminds me and my then girlfriend of buying our first home the year this song came out. We moved in and on the second day it was beautiful weather. Instead of going shopping for furniture, we laid in garden together. BTW she's now my wife.
I am 73 and I love this song so much it brings tears to my eyes because it reminds me of a person I should have lived my life with ! Unfortunately he took his own life !
We'll do it all Everything On our own We don't need Anything Or anyone If I lay here If I just lay here Would you lie with me and just forget the world? I don't quite know How to say How I feel Those three words Are said too much They're not enough If I lay here If I just lay here Would you lie with me and just forget the world? Forget what we're told Before we get too old Show me a garden that's bursting into life Let's waste time Chasing cars Around our heads I need your grace To remind me To find my own If I lay here If I just lay here Would you lie with me and just forget the world? Forget what we're told Before we get too old Show me a garden that's bursting into life All that I am All that I ever was Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see I don't know where Confused about how as well Just know that these things will never change for us at all If I lay here If I just lay here Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
Alan Tracy was/is a big,tough as f guy,when our sons band played this he cried like a baby for one of his mates it reminded him of,such a sweet memory,sweet song........
I remember this song from Grey's Anatomy when Izzie lost her husband. My late sister and I both loved/love that show. I wish I could watch it with her now. This is dedicated to her; a lovely sister and lovely song.
This song as a whole is powerful, but that opening line gets me every time. "We do it all. Everything. On our own." And to the people who are lonely out there, don't give up. Someone will come along, and you WILL fall in love. Just make sure your heart and mind is in the right place, because that's what it takes. Oh, and don't chase it down, true love comes to you in the most inopportune of times.
But that's why the song is called chasing cars... You have to chase your dreams and aspirations... and seek to find love. Read the story of Abraham in the Bible and how he commissioned his servant to look for a wife for his son Isaac.
When this song came out....I was in prison....this song would take me away....away...and I’m just now exploring his other music..I love this man! OMG! His smile! How can one not smile back.
I dedicate this song to myself. This song has helped me a lot during the pandemic (2020). This song taught me the power of self-love. Thank you Snow Patrol! Thank you Gary!
Unfortunately, we lost our much beloved close family friend back in 2017, 11 months after my dad passed away. This was his song, and not only that but Gary came from my home town, just a few doors down from another, close friend, who lost her hubby just recently. Believe me, my life is littered with losing family, friends and so on, in the last 5yrs., including my unconditional-loving staffy. BUT, I'm still here and in my deepest, darkest days, I feel them, wanting me to be stronger than ever before. Another song I tear up with, is from the Royal Scots Dragoon.....Amazing Grace, and my dad's song was Abide with Me.
This takes me back to watching my mum in a coma slowly slipping away week after week....that feeling of if I just stayed there lying next to her, somehow she'd get better and come back from the brink of death. She didn't and I've mourned her every second of every day since she passed. Mum, all that I am, all that I ever was, is here in your perfect eyes- they're all I can see - each night in my dreams, each time I look in the mirror and see your eyes in my own. I miss you so much xxxx
Debby, I completely understand what you said. Same situation with my mom. A heartbreaking loss! Eventually time will heal, even though it might not seem possible now. Hang in there. It will get better, it just takes time. Love and hugs to you!
Similarly, my dad slipped into a coma on 16th August 2018, a few days before he passed over, and this song entered my life at that time. Dad was in Australia, I was in Scotland. This song and Gary's voice connected us across time and space at the end of dad's life.
He made me a playlist back in 2013 and this is number 1 on the list. I was suicidal back then. Everytime i feel bad or happy i will slash my wrist. He helped me heal. He left me without any goodbye in 2015. But i no longer slash my wrist even it hurts me so bad. Now he is singing this song to his wife and daughter. I am happy for him.
My two daughters and I drove non-stop from Ohio to Austin Texas to see the Lord of the Rings trilogy at the Alamo Drafthouse nearly a decade ago. My oldest and I took turns sleeping while the other drove listening to this entire CD all the way through and listening to it coming back as well. And to this day I never get tired of this song.
The song was a my best friend's favorite song he singing in karaoke all the time listening to this again remind me of him his name is Wayne and I will never forget him no I have the song sung by an artist from Britain in a dance mix so when I go walking and I listen to the song tears come to my eyes cuz he was my best friend ever Wayne I hope you're resting in peace
@Van Helsing Its twu its twu Americans have no idea what irony is, a ironic comment sounds ernest and wholesome to a irony free society, good luck if you spend any time in the UK Drack Chaser your head will be spinning untill you get the language.
Wow, fair play. It looks like the song means just as much now as it did then. The guy was drifting away, snapping back into it and then looking on the verge of tears followed by smiles. Maybe a full journey.
As a singer and guitarist I absolutely love playing this gorgeous gem of a song. Can I just say how down to earth these guys are it's unreal. So proud of them. Legends. No other words to describe snow patrol.
Played at my best friend’s and love of my life Glenn’s memorial.❤Miss u and can’t wait for the day when I can see you again🥲 “ I need your Grace to remind me … to find my own.”
My heart lights up with the joy that flows from him as he smiles and sings on this video. His smile is pure joy from his heart. What a gift to all who hear, see and feel this experience. I was sad and after I watched and listened (to one of my favorite songs, band and voice) my sadness turned to a smile and a full heart. Shifted in a moment. I will always love this song, as if it's the first time hearing it well over a decade ago. It always feels new. There is something about it that is so full of hope and I can listen to it over and over forever. Beautiful voice and so full of heart. Thank you Gary and Snow Patrol.
Had the privilege of meeting Gary after the show in Atlanta back in April. He walked right out the back of the Tabernacle all by himself like it was nothing and met with the fans waiting. Got to have a quick conversation with him. So nice & down to earth. Very special moment for me. Thx Gary!!!
I think this is one of those times when the singer and the audience connected just the right way and produced something special. Great video and performance
I cannot help noticing how deeply the singer felt the song while delivering it. His eyes almost moistened at the last bit. This is how music should touch your soul
If you cannot feel this music deep within your soul than you have never experienced love, life or heartbreak.... gawd I love this so so so very much.... thank you for filling my lungs with your gift so I may breath again
So true this brings me back to a part in my life to which I wish I was still there I so happy back then with there music and life everything so simple back then
sing along guys...lyric for everybody We'll do it all Everything On our own We don't need Anything Or anyone If I lay here If I just lay here Would you lie with me and just forget the world? I don't quite know How to say How I feel Those three words Are said too much They're not enough If I lay here If I just lay here Would you lie with me and just forget the world? Forget what we're told Before we get too old Show me a garden that's bursting into life Let's waste time Chasing cars Around our heads I need your grace To remind me To find my own If I lay here If I just lay here Would you lie with me and just forget the world? Forget what we're told Before we get too old Show me…
I had lost my first wife to breast cancer and never thought I'd find love again,but after two lonely dreadful years I was blessed with another love...this song had just come out the week we started dating and we made the most beautiful love to it!
A song that will last forever. Times may change and fations do to but songs like this will last forever and they are few and far between sadly! This song has a great meaning to me as it does for many of you too. I cry and smile every time i hear this!! XX Thank you Snow patrol!! XX
With this song i proposed marriage to my girlfriend (now my wife), everytime listening to it brings me to that night and each single detail of it. Now it is alone saved in a very special playlist in my youtube.
This song just came on the radio, and I had to come back here and say thank you to everyone, for such kind words. I wish I could lie here and just forget the world …………….
Sitting here in our living room, singing this with my son. Finding joy outside of and despite covid. We just lay here listening to music. Love this kid

perfectly said :)
I kind of feel sad for new generations. What are they gonna rememeber when they grow up?
He does indeed light up most of then his eyes closed while performing love this man
Hi buddy 👋👋👋
Yes sir!
This man is clearly living the nostalgia.
Its crazy to think how many years have passed and it still holds such a place in everyone's heart
I adore this song!
So many memories
Timeless.
Anyone can sing this song well... all they have to do is sing it with heart. I give it a go most mornings in the shower to get the day started.
I have Bi Polar and life can be so challenging at times. I've read many of these comment and cried. My heart goes out to all of you. Thankyou for sharing and for your honesty. Love is all you need ....❤❤❤
For my wife and her mental health issues. I wish I could just play this and lay alongside her. I love you so much Jules. I'm here for you. xxx Great song.
Pick up a guitar and give it a shot, your wife would love it and it could help ease her thoughts even for a bit, keep spreading the love
Been there friend. Peace buddy !!

Much respect!

My son died in 2019. How i miss him. He fought and fought for years. "Those three words are said too much, They're not enough"...
This song is timeless.
Well everything kind of is.

@@grayhodges6817 inappropriate hitting on people when that's not the intent of this thread. UP YOUR GAME -- have some class.
It's a generational song, along with 'Run', for me. Same with Killers - Mr Brightside
Who sings "run for me"?
@@ElCampisaurus Yeah, my bad. 'Run' also by Snow Patrol. Was late when I posted, proper grammar eluded me. =} Edited accordingly.
Snow Patrol sings to everyone. I am a great grandmother, and love them.
Mr Brightside not even in the same class let alone school. The killers are dirge.
snow patrol play in a major league, not killer, at all, the try, they need ten millions lifes more to be close to the essence of SNOW
For my school friend Rachel, she loved this song. Where ever you are my dear friend this is for you xx
Wow. I wonder when will she see this and respond. Let’s help her see yall🙌🏽
This is one of those songs that when you hear it you just stop what you are doing and listen to every word and every note.
I dedicate this song to myself.
This song has helped me a lot during the pandemic (2020).
This song taught me the power of self-love.
Thank you Snow Patrol! Thank you Gary!
wish you the best my man!
A year later an hope yer alright m8 I know that feeling!! Chin up bro
This song is a perfect example of immortality of a masterpiece. Bravo Snow Patrol !
Notice how nobody started singing over them because they were all just listening...❤️❤️
Best song ever written
the moment he said chasing cars with that smile is when i teared up. Beautiful performance.

Similarly, my dad slipped into a coma on 16th August 2018, a few days before he passed over, and this song entered my life at that time. Dad was in Australia, I was in Scotland. This song and Gary's voice connected us across time and space at the end of dad's life.
@@trumpetsharps4496 Sorry to hear that, 3 day's before my birthday as well.
When this song came out i thought it was soppy but now I realise I it was just real. Real emotion. And a great song.
Yes. It took me a while to really 'get it'
it a feeling a lot do feel i'm 48 and get every word in this song
He's feeling it. He's true artis. Love his smile. ❤
Hello pretty, nice to meet you
How are you doing?
I will be delighted to get back your reply
If you don't mind
@@grayhodges6817 a bit creepy mate
@@LeoB2401 hahahaaha Dafuq is wrong with that guy
He made me a playlist back in 2013 and this is number 1 on the list. I was suicidal back then. Everytime i feel bad or happy i will slash my wrist. He helped me heal. He left me without any goodbye in 2015. But i no longer slash my wrist even it hurts me so bad. Now he is singing this song to his wife and daughter. I am happy for him.
Hope you’re still doing well✨
Rainy day..Smell of soil...and this song ringing in my ear..life is blissful
This is one of the best lyrics ever written made into one of the greatest songs out there.
My two daughters and I drove non-stop from Ohio to Austin Texas to see the Lord of the Rings trilogy at the Alamo Drafthouse nearly a decade ago. My oldest and I took turns sleeping while the other drove listening to this entire CD all the way through and listening to it coming back as well. And to this day I never get tired of this song.
Gary i love to listen to you sing you are magical ✨️ 💖 😍 💕
The song was a my best friend's favorite song he singing in karaoke all the time listening to this again remind me of him his name is Wayne and I will never forget him no I have the song sung by an artist from Britain in a dance mix so when I go walking and I listen to the song tears come to my eyes cuz he was my best friend ever Wayne I hope you're resting in peace
To my sister who pass away 10 years ago. How i miss her so much and listening to this song remembering her with love.
My wife walked down the Aisle to Chasing Cars. Greatest number
are you still married after all this time, six months is a eternity
@@PatrickKelly-lz3pv an* eternity
@Van Helsing Its twu its twu Americans have no idea what irony is, a ironic comment sounds ernest and wholesome to a irony free society, good luck if you spend any time in the UK Drack Chaser your head will be spinning untill you get the language.
The best ever song from snowpatrol ever ever ❤️ ♥️ 💕 💙 💜 💖 ❤️ ♥️ 💕
An indescribably beautiful song! The singers passion and joy exudes from his every pore!
Wow, fair play. It looks like the song means just as much now as it did then. The guy was drifting away, snapping back into it and then looking on the verge of tears followed by smiles. Maybe a full journey.
Love you mat XXX
Such a beautiful glimpse into his emotions 💖
that moment when he sings about finding his own grace......oh my heart
As a singer and guitarist I absolutely love playing this gorgeous gem of a song. Can I just say how down to earth these guys are it's unreal. So proud of them. Legends. No other words to describe snow patrol.
i love how he feel the lyrics while singing , he smiles and looks just so much in love , i feel the same way
Never imagined him smiling while singing this...I think I love that picture in my head forever now 🙃💕
i can feel the heart of the singer falling in love when he sings the song. it's just so pure.
Played at my best friend’s and love of my life Glenn’s memorial.❤Miss u and can’t wait for the day when I can see you again🥲
“ I need your Grace to remind me … to find my own.”
One of the most beautiful voices of all time. An incredible song that means so much to so many people
My heart lights up with the joy that flows from him as he smiles and sings on this video. His smile is pure joy from his heart. What a gift to all who hear, see and feel this experience. I was sad and after I watched and listened (to one of my favorite songs, band and voice) my sadness turned to a smile and a full heart. Shifted in a moment. I will always love this song, as if it's the first time hearing it well over a decade ago. It always feels new. There is something about it that is so full of hope and I can listen to it over and over forever. Beautiful voice and so full of heart. Thank you Gary and Snow Patrol.
Agree!!
@@trumpetsharps4496 What??
CaraAriel I know wat u mean. an hes irish xx
Amazing song
We can see the happiness in his eyes after everbody singing
Bro still gets emotional when playing this song, that's when you know it comes from a real experience
2023 beautiful ❤
I love watching him come alive when he sings, his smile is beautiful, I love his interaction with his fans.
November 2019 still one of the best songs :)
I respect your opinion but no
I was so young at the time when I first heard this song and right now, that I'm an adult. This song just hits me hard.
Yes, it's different now.
“I need your grace to remind me to find my own”. Beautiful ♥️💚♥️
Had the privilege of meeting Gary after the show in Atlanta back in April. He walked right out the back of the Tabernacle all by himself like it was nothing and met with the fans waiting. Got to have a quick conversation with him. So nice & down to earth. Very special moment for me. Thx Gary!!!
His voice is even more amazing live. Love this!
This song was playing as I walked down the aisle at my wedding almost 6 years ago. Love this version of it ❤
OG an awesome version of a great song, I agree. :-)
🥺❤️
I think this is one of those times when the singer and the audience connected just the right way and produced something special. Great video and performance
I cannot help noticing how deeply the singer felt the song while delivering it. His eyes almost moistened at the last bit. This is how music should touch your soul
Thats music for ya
If you cannot feel this music deep within your soul than you have never experienced love, life or heartbreak.... gawd I love this so so so very much.... thank you for filling my lungs with your gift so I may breath again
I love you Mary but this is too expressive for some people
@@MrSoma how so
@@MrSoma thanks for the love
I love you my Annie .... And God I miss you so much ... One day baby, one day we will be together again .... And we can lay together chasing cars ....
he is just pure emotions
This song has a lot of meaning to me... Chasing Cars made me happy... felt in love... and felt heartbreak....\
I love this song, reminds me of when I was in love. HAPPY memories!
So true this brings me back to a part in my life to which I wish I was still there I so happy back then with there music and life everything so simple back then
I love songs like this that start slow or quiet and then build up near the end and finish slow again. Never get tired of hearing it.
It must take so much talent and creativity to write a song that is so soft yet so powerful at the same time..
Omg love you guys!
sing along guys...lyric for everybody
We'll do it all
Everything
On our own
We don't need
Anything
Or anyone
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
I don't quite know
How to say
How I feel
Those three words
Are said too much
They're not enough
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life
Let's waste time
Chasing cars
Around our heads
I need your grace
To remind me
To find my own
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me…
heres the song ,,in reggae bro,, love your time spent on the lyrics bre ,,one big love th-cam.com/video/RukYfGw9fk0/w-d-xo.html
I had lost my first wife to breast cancer and never thought I'd find love again,but after two lonely dreadful years I was blessed with another love...this song had just come out the week we started dating and we made the most beautiful love to it!
ew but nice too
A song that will last forever. Times may change and fations do to but songs like this will last forever and they are few and far between sadly! This song has a great meaning to me as it does for many of you too. I cry and smile every time i hear this!! XX Thank you Snow patrol!! XX
The way his smile wins him over while he sings, is so sweet and heartwarming. Love this video, this song, this moment.
he's aging gracefully.. one of my faves all time!
With this song i proposed marriage to my girlfriend (now my wife), everytime listening to it brings me to that night and each single detail of it. Now it is alone saved in a very special playlist in my youtube.
This song just came on the radio, and I had to come back here and say thank you to everyone, for such kind words. I wish I could lie here and just forget the world …………….
This video could make the whole world come to a standstill and bring everyone together, this is powerful
amazing touching song after all these years
The older he get..he became more amazing than before..so love it😍😍😍
Sitting here in our living room, singing this with my son. Finding joy outside of and despite covid. We just lay here listening to music. Love this kid
I used to sing a long with this without feeling anything. All i know is that its a sad song until i grew up and became mature and every lyrics hits me
