I seen them in the Paradiso in Amsterdam a couple of weeks ago and it was sold out( 400 max) and what a performance.They were absolutely brilliant and even played this song which made it even better!!!!Can`t wait till they come back here again
It really suits the song having it stripped back like this. They did a similar version on The Will Leahy show last year. It's still on his webpage but the audio quality isn't great.
Hey... this wasn't pixelated 240p when I uploaded it. Do UA-cam reduce the quality of uploaded videos over time? Also, I can't believe that was almost 7 years ago... shit.
In response to earlier question: I put an MP3 version of this up on bellx1.davejeffrey around the same time as this. You can find it in the links section of the BellX1 website.
Dave Jeffrey's site seems to be down altogether at the moment. If anyone wants the track, just shoot me a message with your email address. The MP3 is encoded from the original TV audio stream so it's much nicer quality than the above video.
I love Bell X1 and much prefer their style to Damien Rice for the record. But Rice has wrote one of the best Irish albums of all time in O (top 10 at irish music central) and hit No.1 with his second, so that comment is ridiculous.
damian rice leaves the band to become a big success on the back of pretty much one song...while bell x1 are left behind and write this song without him...funny isn't it :D
I still remember this performance airing live! Cannot believe it was 15 years ago!
Thank you Ireland for this band! They are a breathe of fresh air!!! Thank God they are touring! I love them!!!
I can't believe anyone has a more beautiful voice than Paul. Wauw.
Bell Ten One. It's so refreshing to here an Irish group with an edge to it. No more hopeless do-gooder bands from the emerald isle.
Super live performance
How is this band not bigger than they are? just great song after great song.

Never get sick of BellX1's sound... Best Irish band by a million miles!
Heard his on the radio for the first time today. Fantastic song!
unbelievable beauty
I wish there was more music like this in the states.
what a beautiful song
been with these guys since they were juniper. this felt like the sound of triumph
absolutley, trully beautifull ! i am in awe
must be one of my favourite bell x1-video :D
Can I please eat them for breakfast lunch and dinner? Please? What an amazing piece of everything they are.
It just sounds like tears of joy.
I agree with you completely. Exactly my thoughts.
Great song from a great Irish band, i love it.
this is well good!!
Brilliant track, saw them acoustic last night in dundalk and they were class
Absolutely amazing!!!
this is brillant
Great song for the Sunday morning weariness!!
i love this band,makes me proud to be irish
I never thought that someone can make a song regarding pimples/acnes and make it sound good =P.
Oh well done RTE for cutting it short.

Top Class
lovely...........:):):)
bell x1 are a lethal band and its a shame theres only a lot of hype about them now because i have their 2005 "flock" album and its brilliant!!
dats a real perfect performance so clear,like the recorded version but better..
Well done for fecking up the ending RTE!

And now it's 9 years. Lol god help us we are old
Fantastic band. All the need is a break on the international stage. Who knows maybe u tube can do it.
savage song

good answer :)
go miriam!
one of their best songs without a doubt
but i think i prefer the album version just the way the drums oppose the guitar but this is fantastic too
yeah i agree with me too ha ha but i posted that before i got tour de flock and now i think that version is the best by miles have you heard it?
g'wan Miriam!
does no one have the video/mp3 of when paul and dave (i think) did reacharound acoustic on night shift?
I hadn't heard that he'd done a cover.
typical rte cuttin it short at the end. not realising that it was probably the best thing they had shown all year.

i got propose while they were playing this song
G I L F
Is the part 3:20-4:05 from another song? I can't place it
from which song?
I really want to like this song but I just can't. :L

This is NOT Damien Rice people, and he never covered this song. Bell X1 >>> Damien Rice in my book, beautiful
Miriam. Yummy.
Great performance but the camera work is truly appalling!!!
We also make some godsdamned awful music. It's all a rich tapestry. :)
They're playing Electric Picnic instead.. much better festival.
bell x1 are epic, but of all bands to kick out, not blur!! so many shockingly bad bands at that festival, but blur was not one of them!..just sayin..
sooo depressing
