I was there...what a concert, so emotional. And such a lovely band, they all made the effort after the concert to come and meet their fans, no egos, just genuinely nice people. Other bands could learn from them.
What exquisite music. Gorgeous ensemble made up of so many skilled individuals. And David forevermore captured weaving it all together like no one else could.❤
Absolutely beautiful. Watched this twice now. I was there on that Sunday. I knew I’d get really emotional watching this. Kept it all in check until the brass kicked in. Those supreme guys never ever fail to stir me and reduce me to tears. Sublime.
I felt so saddened about the loss of mr. Longdon to a point that I could not watch or listen to BBT for some time. It is strange to feel something like this for someone you don’t personally know. His music, the music of BBT has this power on me. Finally today I found the will to listen to this wonderful piece again.
This is the first time Ive ever heard of this band or hin following the tragisk news. My condolences to those who were close to him or allready loved this music. Its lovely and impressive.
Utterly sublime - there was dust in the air when I saw this live last year and again now, having just watched this wonderful recording. My favourite BBT track! B->
Gorgeous. Hope and pray I can see BBT live sometime. The only band, apart from Yes in their prime, who, when I hear them, seem to coincide with a strange lumpy sensation in my throat and my eyes watering...odd that........
shame on me, never heard of him until Mr Sean Webster made his album ALMOST white the song This Bad, This Low written by David Longdon, GOOSBUMPS, so i want to know more of him . what a great singer, songwriter RIP David and thanks for the music.
Excellent, the song is beautifully recreated and sounds better live than on record. No mean feat for a truly great band. Looking forward to the gig in Basingstoke.
"We are expecting to premiere our Cadogan Hall concert film on November 26th at Everyman Cinema, Kings Cross. It's a nice modern art cinema, with a bar and comfy seats. We hope that the whole band will be there for a Q and A and to say hi to any attendees. About 100 tickets should be available for the event. More news on this in the summer."
Very poignant. The father to son trade....almost nonexistant now. Pride in the Legacy, building the nation- brought tears to my eyes. So much has been lost..
Can't help thinking that perhaps BBT's best days are behind them. I long for the genius that brought us "The Underfall Yard" and parts of "English Electric". Seems a long time ago now.
It's incredible but I've heard incredible already from the real people already and I'm 50 !! support Jon Anderson 1000 hands or those mute gods put money into the hands that created the music
Beautiful. A reminder of how so very special David was. RIP David.
Hard not to cry listening to this masterpiece. RIP David, you are truly missed
Perfectly beautiful. You live forever in your music, David. Thank you.
Goodness knows how they can replace David , the finest voice in prog , RIP David

Impeccable!!! So very very sad this highly talented man has tragically passed, what a loss for his family, band/friends. How can they replace him??
What exquisite music. Gorgeous ensemble made up of so many skilled individuals. And David forevermore captured weaving it all together like no one else could.❤
This is one of the most beautiful songs I’ve ever heard. What a treasure you’ve given us. Thank you.
I had the privilege of being at this gig. Almost turned me into a blubbering wreck on the day. Thanks David, you will be missed.
Absolutely beautiful. Watched this twice now. I was there on that Sunday. I knew I’d get really emotional watching this. Kept it all in check until the brass kicked in. Those supreme guys never ever fail to stir me and reduce me to tears. Sublime.
Well put, sir. The brass bring tears. Such a great blend of music....
Utterly, utterly beautiful ❤. So poignant and moving.
God so emotional “fill the Tyne …. Fill the Tyne “ …. So sad David we miss you so much x

I am gonna say it. best song i heard in 2019
Had me in tears first time I played the album and still puts a lump in my throat and I have no idea why.
Every time. Still
This is the first time Ive ever heard of this band or hin following the tragisk news. My condolences to those who were close to him or allready loved this music. Its lovely and impressive.
Oh man , what a beautiful song !.
My condolences to Family, Band, and all the Big Big Train fans, who have truly lost someone special.
Great Song & Vocals 🎤🎸🎹👍👌👋
The music is very well played and composed with great emotion! Wonderful show!
Magnificent and gripping. Thank you for the emotions.
Utterly sublime - there was dust in the air when I saw this live last year and again now, having just watched this wonderful recording. My favourite BBT track! B->
Mine too.
I'm from this area and know how important Swan was for the people and it's community.A moving,touching song.
I know David in real life
I'm in the same room as him
Gorgeous. Hope and pray I can see BBT live sometime. The only band, apart from Yes in their prime, who, when I hear them, seem to coincide with a strange lumpy sensation in my throat and my eyes watering...odd that........
That high note. David Longdon: gone too soon.
And wonderfully beautiful all rolled into one. My fandom has grown. Thank you for this gift!
I love that really kind gesture at the end by David to Danny beautiful ❤
why was that? Has Danny something special with Swan hunter?
@@leonardowelles5580 don’t know to be honest but I have a feeling that his dad worked there.
Beautiful…simply beautiful.
That part at 6:25 when he shows the world the type of cool human he was. RIP Mr Longdon :(
Estos musicos brillantes hacen que todavia no pueda dominar mis emociones. RIP bro
Gorgeous stuff, thanks
Simply lovely. This is great music, moving, complex yet simple. Strong yet soft. powerful.

Miss you Dave ❤
This guy was so brilliant!
Perfection...
Such a beautiful song ! ❤
I love that bit at the end where David puts his hand on Danny’s shoulder … such a real beautiful man was David
David & Danny at the end :)
David Longdon R.I.P. 😥❤️🙏
Stunning BBT at its best - will really miss that sweet toned violin of Rachel’s
Melted my spine.
Great memories! And I can see my friends and me on the third row :D
RIP David Longdon - so sad to hear of your loss
Utterly beautiful
Wonderful, Brought a tear to my eye again and all the memories of London 2017.
Me too, dear Angus ♥️
You pair of softies.... :-)
Love you both
You must have had water leaking from your eyes, Langridge! B->
Might have Cliff. Was very dusty in there...
Fantastic. What a voice
shame on me, never heard of him until Mr Sean Webster made his album ALMOST white the song This Bad, This Low written by David Longdon, GOOSBUMPS, so i want to know more of him . what a great singer, songwriter RIP David and thanks for the music.
So beautiful !!
Very emotional...
geniales como simpre, su music ate trasporta, llena el alma
New fan here..jeez where have I been
So, how much have you spent on their music since discovering BBT? For me it was a small fortune but oh so worth it!
What a gem !!!! Thanks BBT. I hope to see you after passing this pandemic.
always good and so relaxing to listen to .should do a concert in Nottingham if David dare
what a masterpiece
Fantastico, magico !!!!!
Magnifique morceau de B.B.T. ! ! !
Preciosa canción, gran performance. Felicidades.
R.I.P. David :(
Wonderful! I was there too on Saturday :)
Lovely, lovely, lovely - roll on, Basinstoke.
Stunning. 👍
Absolutely beautiful music.
Rest in peace David :(
Los esperamos pronto en México.
RIP
Wonderful performance, wonderful song.
Шедевр!
Somptueux !
Só o posso dizer, é, tudo é bonito e de qualidade, a gravação, tem muita, muita falta, talvez de meios.
Outstanding! So glad we were there on the Sunday. Looking forward to The Anvil. :-)
Великая вещь. Драматичная, глубокая... Хорошо думать о вечном и несуетном. И что мир прекрасен и неповторим, не смотря ни на что
That high Eb makes me cry.
Fantastici! Il respiro d'autore del Prog del momento
Excellent, the song is beautifully recreated and sounds better live than on record. No mean feat for a truly great band. Looking forward to the gig in Basingstoke.
Goodbye David. You will be greatly missed...
great great great
Fabulous
Very delicate. And Peter Gabriel-esque or Marillion
Sounds amazing! Hopefully there's a live concert video BD or DVD released at some point, too!
The DVD is planned for later this year
Malcolm Newington whereabouts did you hear this?
"A film version of Merchants of Light will be released on Blu-Ray in November 2018 (with a cinema premiere; see below)." Greg Spawton - Facebook site

There will be just a BluRay, no DVD.
really, REALLY nice
SO PROGTASTIC BBT Are Brit Prog At Its Finest........since Genesis and Yes for this old Squonk
Very nice...as usual for BBT....
Wow does he sound like Gabriel 👂🏻
Kickass! When that high note comes in, reminds me of Erasure. =p
Oh that is good.
RIP David!
My favourite from BBT. Very sad to lose all those from the line-up in 2020, but all part of the crap year that it was.
Very poignant. The father to son trade....almost nonexistant now. Pride in the Legacy, building the nation- brought tears to my eyes. So much has been lost..
RIP David
So sad David is gone... :(
That's not too shabby at all is it?
Agree. You're not AL the software tester are you???
R.I.P. David Longdon :(
RIP ;-(
Tears enough to fill the Tyne now for David
Komiata, komiata!
!!!!!!
Can't help thinking that perhaps BBT's best days are behind them. I long for the genius that brought us "The Underfall Yard" and parts of "English Electric". Seems a long time ago now.
It's incredible but I've heard incredible already from the real people already and I'm 50 !! support Jon Anderson 1000 hands or those mute gods put
money into the hands that created the music
Sounds like Kansas. Which is a good thing.
