Any Snow Patrol fans on here? I was really impressed with "Final Straw" and I am listening to the new album "Eyes Open" on music.aol.com, I am only 4 songs into it and it is amazing. "Chasing Cars" could be a song we all hear a lot of...

I will have to make sure to pick this one up.

    Meh, they're ok. Good Live, I'll give them that. Not too excited about the new album though.

    This is the only song of theirs I know---loooove it. :)

    Run--Snow Patrol

    (for all the sentimental saps out there)

    .............................. ..........................

    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
    Anyway 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 goodbye
    I nearly do

    Light up...

    Slower slower
    We don't have time for that
    I just want 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

    They're a brilliant band. First two albums are their best, in my opinion before the commercial boom. That's not to say that Final Straw and their new one, Eyes Open aren't good (currently listening to that as I type this message). They're great live, seen them a couple of times and I'm yet to feel disappointed :) Definitly worth checking out.

    'eyes open' is a great album.

    sure, 'chasing cars' was featured prominently in the season finale for 'grey's anatomy,' but that doesn't keep it from being an amazing song (the best on the album, in my opinion). i'm enjoying the entire album quite a bit.

    i just recently got into them by recommendation of a friend. i bought final straw and was flat out addicted. incredible album. the new one isnt bad, but doesnt really have the atmosphere of the prior one. still a strong album though. i like it a lot.

    what are the earlier 2 records like? i cant find them aroudn here but imc urious.
