Who’s watching this in 2023? Love these two.

I love how Marketa is always so calm, in stark contrast from Glen who can reach near-nuclear intensity.

you really gotta give props to marketa for managing to harmonise with the animal noises coming out of glen on that last one.

I always like to see Swell Season era's Marketa as a warm blanket wrapping around the sharp knife that is Glen.

i remember watching once for the first time. after the movie i went to another room to go about my day and out of nowhere I started crying. I knew instantly it was because of "when your mind is made up" set something free that was locked up for a long time in me

My dying mother turned me onto the movie Once, and from the moment that we watched it together it's been one of my favorites both in film and the soundtrack. I listened to the music a lot as therapy while she was dying and afterwards. Medicine.

Marketa Irglova's voice is so quiet and reserved, yet it's filled with the same intense emotion as Glen Hansard's. I love that aspect of her. She's quite powerful. Her songs literally have taken my breathe away. She's so timid looking, but when she gets her hand on that guitar you can see her demeanor change into this confident woman who sings from her soul. I love their sound immensely!

I see a lot of quiet strength in her. I don't think she knows how special and rare she is, which of course only adds to her charm and beauty.

I find myself back here every so often and I don't know exactly why. It's like hearing these two together gives me a glimpse of something real, something beautiful and raw. Something I'm not sure if I will ever experience for myself.

Glen has got to be the most phenomenally talented vocalist in modern folk music. If you call it that, folk/pop, whatever. His vocal ability is just perfect.

I'd never heard of him or the swell season or marketa at all however, I was somewhat strungout and playing a lot of house parties and smaller gigs with just an acoustic when I woke up and started watching a movie that was already playing on t.v. It ended up being "Once" and it held me fascinated the entire time and their duet in the music store had me bawling. It was such an intimate experience even though it was a movie it felt extremely personal. Ever since then I've got nothing but respect for the two and am so glad they were recognized and rewarded for their talent which enabled them to keep creating.

32:37 Glen's face...if I ever feel that sort of passion for anything, even for one second, my life will be well-lived.

14 years ago and all these songs still make me beam

Glen Hansard: a man who rocks so hard, he doesn't need a distortion pedal.

I was at a Swell Season-concert. And it was awesome. He talked a bit, made the audience join in, his personality is fantastic. He was supposed to have 2 more songs. and after those songs, he said, well, we can take one more song, and after that, aah, we can take JUST one more song. after that. this is our last song! maybe! and he did another song after that:P it was epic!

Gonna see Marketa and Glen tonight!!

ONCE made a huge impact in my life!! I am highly appreciated to both of these humans! Thank you for giving such songs^^

If you love the movie as much as I do (and it’s one of my all time favorites). You owe to yourself to see the stage adaptation of it. The only negative about it is the fact that Glen and Marketa aren’t in it, but it is still brilliant. I think it is still touring (pre COVID-19 shutdown) it was supposed be in U.K. for 2020/2021. I saw it in Memphis, Tennessee in 2014.

I let my mum watch Once when it was on Netflix a few years back . She loved the movie . I lost her in September 2023 and am in deep mourning now . Watching that movie and listening to the soundtrack, whilst filling me with sad memories , also fills me with happiness and hope .

Can you imagine the partial tension... the memories- holding back tears... just sitting that close to each other? How hard this must have been after all these 2 have been through. I give them a LOT of credit that they stayed together in song, if not love. Beautiful and sad. Great people. You can catch the brief glances of respect if you watch closely. You have to remember...these songs are about their lives together, apart and those close to them. I wouldn’t have been able to make it through this. Very professional on the outside... but, chaos, joy, dread, new love, fright and a myriad of emotions and memories on the inside.

Marketa Irglova is so graceful !! .. glen hansard is divine ! ... love these guys

Found this gem. ❤❤❤❤

I honestly love the way they both gently do the harmonisation when the other is singing Like the song is fragile

I simply can't cope with how much both of their voices, ever note, every lyric, every harmony, every moment they sing moves me and helps me feel pure emotion, it's incredible.

They are so beautiful together, at least that's how I feel after watching the movie about them. Real dream story, with all of its sorrow and happiness.

I can't get enough of these two.. I've watched this video more than 20 times since it was uploaded. I keep coming back to it and their album... It always seems to find me when I need to hear it the most...

Who's watching this in 2022? I love the energy of Glen And the calm of Marketa. Thank you for the emotions that i feel

I think this is among the best acoustic live music performances recorded anywhere, at any time. I keep coming back to it. Again and again. It's so moving. Inspirational. Amazing.

I really loved the film, watched it several times in a row. glad to see he's still using his battered guitar which was also featured in the film

The heavens are full of beautiful vocalists and musicians...but these guys (and girls) are the angels that are fixed firmly in my heart. I heard a very sweet saying today.."think of of yourself as a garden..and your soul the seeds...you can plant weeds or you can plant flowers....TheSwell Season simply plant flowers....beautiful. Mucho x!

wow. that was amazing. i love how he's never afraid to tune his guitar in the middle of a song.

They have been on tour as The Swell Season for 3-4 years, since their first album "The Swell Season" came out in early 2006. That album is very good as well. Marketa wrote a beautiful music piece which also named The Swell Season, check it out.

nothing can beat their pair of voices. also, they seem like such good natured, unassuming kind of people, you could have a very pleasant conversation with - even as a stranger and feel utterly comfortable.

I have been in love with this duo since I first saw the movie. They are so brilliant together. Astonishing!

I love the atmosphere there. I can feel relax moments even thousand miles away from there and their songs make my feeling grows emotionally.

I agree, gentle souls and huge songwriters!

Man, you can really tell that Glen's songs come from an honest place. Just watching his interactions (and reactions) with his audience, you can see his modest and almost deferential nature; this boys been hurt before.

❤❤immensi!!!STRAORDINARI ARTISTI!GRAZIE

Glen at his finest, performing and given an exceptional performance...

It is the songs that I love but I love the love as well. Marketa and Glen seem to have to have the most purest form of what I mean in the first sentence. Actual people doing what they admire the most. So sincere, and their eyes give everything away. Indefinitely perfect, in every sense of the word.

Marketa and Glen are a great combination. Glen is so passionate when performing and Marketa has that eastern European reserve which counterbalances him nicely. They are both class acts and seem to be wonderful people.

I don’t know why this always brings me piece, but it always does.

Glen Hansard is just amazing live.

the melody he gets the audience to sing along to during "back broke" is beautiful. The emotion is like nothing you can find anywhere else today.

This music seems so honest. It makes listening to it refreshing.

so glad glen and marketa have kept making art after the movie. beautiful!
