Not only is it a wonderful performance, it is emotionally shattering. From Martin Shaw's delivery some of some of the most potent lines ever spoken to Alfie Boe's sensitive performance. Many thanks for making it so readily accessible.
My youngest daughter's dedication song. My husband and I were fortunate enough to see this live. It was amazing, inspiring and encouraging. Thank you. You have no idea how much this performance has helped me over the years.
This guys voice just captivates me. The first time I heard him sing was asi f from Les Miserables “ Let him go “. I was In awe of this guy and have followed him ever since. Much love and respect x
Alfie no one could do this better utterly stunning performance. Just amazing, have to keep watching it over and over, please please release a single we want to buy it.
Pure imaginative and emotional power are so huge, but Alfie brings a marvelous, humanizing intellect to this gorgeous song. Truly, a duet…with thousands of fans.
This is so beautiful Alfie Boe sings this with so much passion it is stunning. So emotional I was in tears I was four months old on VE day. So grateful for my freedom because of the sacrifice of so many. Thank you for video.
Simply amazing voice. I loved it. You got the Freddie's spirity... I love I love. You sing with your heart and you give to the audience . Never forget it singe with the audience always give your heart. Like Freddie's did
Oh please let this be released as a single. Absolutely loved it, brought me to tears. Marcia, you're an absolute star for recording and uploading this clip.
Thanks for sharing this. Absolutely beautiful-I was moved to tears watching it last night and am so glad to find it here. Alfie Boe has got a rare and precious talent
A long time ago ...when the world was not so free ... 8 british soldiers tried to help and protect a young couple trying to flee east Germany...they failed ... they were too late ... but a epic battle ensued which was never reported.....
The performance surprised me even more than the haircut and the glasses (keep his eyes from the flying bugs I think) did. This cover is even better than the original of Snow Patrol and that of Leona Lewis, with Alfie's amazing emotion-loaded voice (long sustained notes), the wooing interlude from 3:13 (camera is great too) and a rise of pitch at 4:11 and you name it.
I'll sing it one last time for you Then we really have to go You've been the only thing that's right In all I've done And I can barely look at you But every single time I do I know we'll make it anywhere Away from here Light up, light up As if you have a choice Even if you cannot hear my voice I'll be right beside you dear Louder, louder And we'll run for our lives I can hardly speak I understand Why you can't raise your voice to say To think I might not see those eyes Makes it so hard not to cry And as we say our long goodbyes I nearly do Light up, light up As if you have a choice Even if you cannot hear my voice I'll be right beside you, dear Louder, louder And we'll run for our lives I can hardly speak I understand Why you can't raise your voice to say? Slower, slower We don't have time for that All I want is to find an easier way To get out of our little heads Have heart, my dear We're bound to be afraid Even if it's just for a few days Making up for all this mess Light up, light up As if you have a choice Even if you cannot hear my voice I'll be right beside you dear
“I’ll be right beside you dear”. Such an honest sweet sincere declaration
Just when the best bit kicks in the camera man fucks off to London sight seeing? Alfie brilliant as always
The absolute very best version of this beautiful song
Not only is it a wonderful performance, it is emotionally shattering. From Martin Shaw's delivery some of some of the most potent lines ever spoken to Alfie Boe's sensitive performance. Many thanks for making it so readily accessible.

Absolutely brilliant!

AMAZING.....................
absolutely beautiful :)
loved Martin Shaw too -Alfie was outstanding
WOW!!!!!!!
Great voice and great performance ❤
The performance surprised me even more than the haircut and the glasses (keep his eyes from the flying bugs I think) did. This cover is even better than the original of Snow Patrol and that of Leona Lewis, with Alfie's amazing emotion-loaded voice (long sustained notes), the wooing interlude from 3:13 (camera is great too) and a rise of pitch at 4:11 and you name it.
That modulation at 4:11 is astonishing.
Alfie would, of course, risk it!❤️
Sublime
Must do a single of this even for charity
this would make a wonderful charity single
真好聽!
I want to hear a duet with Leona and Alfie!
Saw him at Open Air Theatre Scarborough Great Stuff
OH ..MY..GOD..🙆😀😀
I'll sing it one last time for you
Then we really have to go
You've been the only thing that's right
In all I've done
And I can barely look at you
But every single time I do
I know we'll make it anywhere
Away from here
Light up, light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you dear
Louder, louder
And we'll run for our lives
I can hardly speak I understand
Why you can't raise your voice to say
To think I might not see those eyes
Makes it so hard not to cry
And as we say our long goodbyes
I nearly do
Light up, light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you, dear
Louder, louder
And we'll run for our lives
I can hardly speak I understand
Why you can't raise your voice to say?
Slower, slower
We don't have time for that
All I want is to find an easier way
To get out of our little heads
Have heart, my dear
We're bound to be afraid
Even if it's just for a few days
Making up for all this mess
Light up, light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you dear
😍
WOW
Agree with all the others - please release it as single - it would raise so much money!
Respect to our armed forces
nice
I want this as an actual MP3 it's so bloody good
Alfie you must record this nobody does it better moving and fantastic
Great❤d❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉😢
So sad,
He's singing with American accent.
Yes, he's done that by choice for the vast majority of his career. He's British, but he's quite the fan of America as well.
Yes, I noticed this, too. His “my” is really close to “mah,’ which I found wonderfully strange and effective. Judith
