There are love songs and then there are Paul Buchanan love songs. He is for me, the only vocalist who can bring a knot to my stomach just by hearing him sing of unrequited or lost love and the other trials of everyday life. Love you J 💞
Another classic from the Blue Nile to add to their back catalogue of musical masterpieces how this band never conquered the world is a mystery god bless the Blue Nile ❤
Few songs capture the enigma of the small hours after midnight, like this one. It's lonely, though inviting. Beautiful & captivating in its honesty, & completeness.
Just as captivating as the full studio production. It’s really hard to say which version is more haunting. Both just penetrate your mind and kind of paralyze you into sitting still and anticipating the next note. Absolutely wonderful.
The Man is a God. Voice of an Angel. Limitless Songwriting Talent. Best Band I’ve ever seen Live. God Bless Scotland for giving us .... Mr Paul Buchanan & The Wonderful Blue Nile.
Goosebumps. I had the good fortune 31 years ago this past fall to have a friend down the hall in my dorm at uni in the U.S. who shared his vinyl copy of "A Walk Across the Rooftops" with me. "Tinseltown in the Rain" and that entire album mesmerized me, and still do. PB's voice and music are still sui generis, decades later.
SInce '83 and A Walk Across The Rooftops the poetic tones of Paul Buchanan and The Blue Nile have brought 'Peace at Last" to this Glasgow boy. Thanks to MrShereco12... you have brought together some of the finest live and acoustic music available anywhere. Roll on the next tour!
I think the painting is L.S.Lowry, chanterlands :-) I LOVE this song, and so good to hear it acoustic. But then, everything associated with The Blue NIle is just sweet music to my ears, thank to the OP for sharing this xx
Just rediscovered Paul Buchanan whilst lying on mi bed in Koh Samui Nov 2023, been listening again and again since. What a voice and what a band Blue Nile. Thanks❤
its simply unique, wathever he does, acustic, vocal, orchestral, when I die Im sure ill meet him , togheter in heaven whit all his foollowers,no words in that movie only his BSO
So stirring, and powerfully emotive, as it may have been the first moment that soul cried out that way, As in real time. Bless You, Blessed Me, Thank You
shivers down my spine, highly emotional. It makes you want to fall in love again... :( Absolutely wonderful . Thanks for posting it,MrSherco, regards-- Diana
Not sure I can take credit really for the 'enjoyment factor' but so glad you have found the channel and its given you some kinda pleasure..... that was the plan ! Found you channel too and will peruse at my leisure. Chill. kind regards, mr sh
edwardar forget the numbers and use your ears: this audio is superior to 99% of anything here. Thanks for MrSherco12 to sharing this unique performance:)
Where the cars go by All the day and night Why don't you say What's so wrong tonight? Pray for me Praying for the light Baby, baby Let's go out tonight Where the lights all shine Like I knew they would Be mine all mine Baby, I'll be good Pray for me Praying for the light Baby, baby Let's go out tonight I know a place, Where everything's alright Alright Let's go out tonight Where the cars go by All the day and night Why don't you say What's so wrong tonight I pray for love, Coming out alright, yeah, Oh baby baby, Let's go out tonight, yeah. Baby, baby Let's go out tonight Let's go out tonight Tonight Tonight Let's go out tonight Yeah Where the cars go by Where the lights won't shine Tonight
Brilliant. Thanks so much - is there anywhere I can get a better quality version of this? I noticed it's only available at 240p (I know this is video quality, but it also affects the bitrate of the audio).
Nice but for me the emotion of the song is all about the higher octave in the last verse (as per the recorded version). Doesn't it depend on that for its power really?
+Simon Hoban Shut up ya pretentious muso tit...It's just a beautiful version of a beautiful song. Calm down, have a wine and enjoy. Your missing the point of the whole song if your bothered about the musicality. and I think its a key change not a raised octave. Anyway kido, just get your heart broken then listen to it lol.
+Craig Miller In reference to your previous comment I understand that someone of your values may appreciate that the internet is full of idiots like me but, please step back and take a look at yourself please. Your comment suggested negativity to this version and that I cannot accept being the indolent fool that I obviously appear to be. Have some humour and have some understanding in your life please and reasonable, measured people like me can love stuff and enjoy stuff without any gash about what a song relies on for it's power!!!! plus that other cock who mentioned Coldplay in the same stream as Paul Buchanan needs a new music collection lol.

Paul Buchanan has a voice made in heaven, he's on a different level. Such a beautiful song.
Just as captivating as the full studio production. It’s really hard to say which version is more haunting. Both just penetrate your mind and kind of paralyze you into sitting still and anticipating the next note. Absolutely wonderful.
The Man is a God.

Mr Paul Buchanan & The Wonderful Blue Nile.
I've been listening to and loving the music from the blue nile for almost 30yrs and it still touches me with the beautiful lyrics and sounds.
Yeah me too. Birthday present in the mid 80's was Blue Nile in Cambridge. First album kept me sane for while.

In love with his voice and emotion for a very long time....pure beauty !
Me too...haunting, sincere and passionate
poetry, music, art, soul, heart, joy, tear, sad, lonely, content, respect.......fulfilment.
Stunning vocals.....worthy to be mentioned alongside Brian ferry, David sylvian.....voices of liquid gold
Great call, Sylvian is another lifetime fave of mine!
@deltic17 was lucky enough to watch sylvian and Robert fripp in the early 90s at Manchester opera House.......fantastic evening.
Why does this make me cry every time I listen to
it?
Cuz you are human
We are all yearning and needing the right music to remind us ...........
Such feeling oozing out of every pore of this man’s body and soul
the best singing i've ever heard. thanks for posting.
ポール・ブキャナンはぼくの一番好きな歌い手だが、この弾き語りには言葉もない。生で聴いてみたいなぁ、聴く機会があるかなぁ……。
The original was sublime - this is even better. Just astonishingly beautiful.

Brilliant. Thanks so much - is there anywhere I can get a better quality version of this? I noticed it's only available at 240p (I know this is video quality, but it also affects the bitrate of the audio).
Am I your first subscriber? that's great !!! thanks again MrSherco.
Great. Thanks for posting. Who is the painting by please?
There is nothing finer. That's all.
Mr Sherco12: Do you know the painter? I tried Lowry's paints but never found it.
Great Post.....who did the painting??
Hello, is there anyway you can tell me where can I get music sheet for piano for this song
You're welcome
Regards,
mrsh
What is that painting in the video?
Bonjour je cherche les accords ou tablatures de cette version magnifique, quelqu'un peut m'aider?
🏴
Hello:
can anyone tell me is this from the KCRW session as well ?
Lumib
Nice but for me the emotion of the song is all about the higher octave in the last verse (as per the recorded version). Doesn't it depend on that for its power really?
Good point there...Coldplay wldnt exist but for Blue Nile..
+Simon Hoban Shut up ya pretentious muso tit...It's just a beautiful version of a beautiful song. Calm down, have a wine and enjoy. Your missing the point of the whole song if your bothered about the musicality. and I think its a key change not a raised octave. Anyway kido, just get your heart broken then listen to it lol.
+Craig Miller Well you sound like the usual reasonable, measured sort the Internet is renowned for.
Simon Hoban hahaha nice to see wee fishes still exist lol xxx
+Craig Miller In reference to your previous comment I understand that someone of your values may appreciate that the internet is full of idiots like me but, please step back and take a look at yourself please.

sigh
Really sorry. I have no idea. it was just a random grab off the web...... I like it too though.
I think it is called 'The Lonely Man' by an artist called Nell Nicol...I am trying to track it down but it is highly elusive.
Kanye West led me here.
