- A sublime show by Van the Man @ Olympia Theatre Dublin last night, one of his best in recent years which long time Vanoraks will treasure - the gig was preceded by an onstage interview in which he talked about his musical influences, his song craft etc including how Madame George is based on a composition of places - Belfast, London and Dublin - as he references in the intro here to one of the greatest pieces of music ever, not just by Van, but by any artist - a fitting song for a Dublin show....enjoy :) [If you like this check out some earlier Van videos from his shows in recent years, including "Going Down To Monte Carlo" @ • Van Morrison "Going Do... - and "Sometimes We Cry" with daughter Shana @ " • Van Morrison with daug... " ]
Best song in Van Morrison library
What a voice! As potent as ever!
I didn't even realized how sore it was inside my ears until I listened to this song and felt a soothing balm pouring into them. And the healing has begun.
Amen and amen.
So nice
True story.you can feel it man
this goes directly into my soul.Strong.Thank you Van for all this wonderfull music.
Over the years he plays with all the immense skill of the acoustic jazz session men who made astral weeks - indeed who were the musical directors of all that music, now Mr M has it all in his fingertips and as band LEADER can conduct it all - whilst singing and projecting to the audience….a class act - thanks be to God
Iv seen Sir Van Morrison 50 plus times now.I live for the next concert.It keeps me alive.Thankyou Sir Van Morrison.

PG'sChannel hi
This is probably the song I've listened more times in my life and I keep on loving it so much.
Yea, hard to describe the impact it has.....Greil Marcus comes close in his description of the use of the song in the movie 'Breakfast On Pluto' --> tinyurl.com/ohx6dhp
bossaddict Thank you very much Boss, it's been very interesting to read.
Absolute Legend.
Exquisite
Van THE Man for sure. Astral Weeks stuff and Cypress Avenue is never better, and Sweet Thing , Ballerina . . . . . Marvelous and Divine all at the same time, I would have to say . . . . . . .
Love this 💚
Whether old songs or new, you always seems to breathe new discoveries into them, give them 'sound wings, to fly' and the thermals that take them way over the hoziron, to touch down lightly, just long enough to bring to view, a flash of feathers colours and a bid you farewell 'till next time, goodbye. 😊
ah just about perfect
well it was an extraordinary show by the master!
Too good
Another piece of magic recorded so brilliantly by Bossaddict !! Thank you so much. I should have been at the gig but this recording is the next best thing. Thank God Van is playing the Lyric on 5/1/15. I have great seats for that!!! Really looking forward to it. Keep up the great work...any more songs from Dublin or Downpatrick shows which I did attend.

Hey tnx for the kind words, I'm just lucky to have been there, saw 3 Van sown in the past 12 months ranging from the awful (Harp bar, New year's Eve) to the extraordinary (Olympia). In fact I'd say that over the many years that I've seen around 40 Van shows this Olympia show was up there with his very best; (didn't record anything else on vid, too busy enjoying the superb performance but I do have a few audio clips which I'll post at some stage; & I didn't make it to Downpatrick),
Enlightened! thks for sharing.
+MrNelhas You're welcome, it was a truly enlightening evening's entertainment in the company of the great one!
prachtig, om van te huilen !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I heard that story about the pennies at the viaduct only the other day! Thank you so much for posting this. You surely have the knack. I was there and loved the night. I thought Marty Whelan was a pleasant surprise.
Hey tnx, yes what a special night for all Vanoraks, one of his best Dublin shows that I can recall :)
I can remember throwing pennies off the bridge in Drogheda.......the way we were..
If there is a more beautiful song than this, I don't know what it is. Interestingly that he clearly sings "Madame Joy" in this version, which I believe was the original intent.
VAN❤💚💚💚
God damn
Van The Man 💚
I like ol' Van
Arise Sir Ivan
Madame Joy
No. Body. Better.
You said it,......cant for the life of me understand how anybody could give this a thumbs down, have they really listened to it, one of the greatest pieces of music ever written
Sitting on the sofa playing games of chance......
I hear 'The Boss' has a thing or two for this song himself.
Where did you get this footage, and is there any of the rest of the show?
tnx, I recorded it at the Olympia Dublin show, only song that I did a video clip, tho I have some audio which I'll upload when I get time; was a sublime show, one of the best I've seen Van do in years
lucky bastards
