- Ulster University honorary graduate and Snow Patrol frontman, Gary Lightbody shares his personal journey through an interesting and intriguing interview, highlighting his successes and challenges throughout his career and personal life.
In the idealistic setting of St. Anne's Cathedral, Belfast.
Opening performance by Daniel Ferguson, a MA student with the University
What a special man, have been a fan of Snow Patrol for years since around 2005 but only really got to “know” Gary as a person through our shared experience of his kind and generous acoustic gigs that he gave us during lockdown. He truly is a beautiful spirit, so open and like others I have often found solace and so much joy from his beautiful lyrics and music. His music just sends me to a higher plain, I can’t wait for the release of the new album.
Amazing interview. If only he knew (I hope he does) how many lives he has touched, changed or even saved with his music and words both sung and spoken. He’s my biggest inspiration. Thank you, Gary!
A classic "empath lightworker" with a name to match, thank you to interviewer for enabling Gary to share so much of his humanity. More men like him would make the world a better place. Heart and voice meld as one, love prevails, a valuable ambassador for Northern Ireland.
I can’t believe there are only 32 comments. What an amazing interview. Gary is such a beautiful soul. I’ve never seen such a down to earth, genuine “rockstar.” His story about his dad, then his performance of “Soon,” following that. Wow. Breathtaking. I really love this man and Snow Patrol! I hope to see them one day. ✌️👍🏻💜☮️💟🦋
What a humble and genuine artist. I am increasingly amazed at his talent. I have introduced many to his music because I just have to share how much it has meant to me. I know these interviews must be difficult, but he handles them with such grace. Bravo Gary.
Sobriety is such a gift. You finally learn to love yourself. Bless you, Gary! ✨💕✨
Frankly honest interview ... brave, courageous opening your heart 💕
Great interview, two gentlemen respecting each other 😊🇮🇪🍀
What a truly poignant and honest interview from a man who I have only relatively recently discovered. musically but now have seen another side of a man who obviouisly wears his heart on his sleeve. And has a wonderful empathy and compassion.
thank you for sharing this with us all.
I am often critical of interviewers however this person did a great job, especially his ability to allow Gary to talk about his alcoholism and recovery. The song about his father's dementia is beautifully sensitive. Gary's grandmother was a wonderfully warm person and clearly had an impact on his worldview. Thank you all for putting this together. I am in love!
I don't think he's ever sang that song better... especially in that moment !!! Well-said 👍💥
Wonderful honest interview best yet
I cannot express how much your music means to me and how I am in awe every time I hear you opening up about such personal issues, you amaze me, Gary Lightbody, you are indeed an extraordinary human being.. :-)
What e honest lovely and talented person Gary is. 👍
I love this interwiew. Gary breaks his heart. I LOVE HIM.
Omg! I am so in love with this man!
Everything Gary talks about leaving and returning to Bangor and n.ireland I can relate to..the ones who left are a unique group of people who understand his feelings..I wonder how many we are who have got to a place of peace in our selves after leaving and now love and appreciate our country 🙂☘️
Gary is so humble. Refreshing.
Unaware apparently of the impact of his storytelling. 🎯
Thank you, Gary. You are truly an inspiration.
Professor Paul Moore deserves some accolades here what an amazing interviewer.
Entirely 👏 This is #perfection
Yes! Just rewatching the interview now ... obviously Gary is adorable and admirable, smart and compassionate. But the interviewer is so good and empathetic as well - would really like to know, what he teaches at the uni, just because.
Oh Gary, someone not Irish gets "I think of home, I often do, you got to know know I love you now, in this light how could I not?" ... home is where our hearts are; it's not an address. Thank you
Now THAT is what you tube must have been created for....message upon message of WE CAN GET ON, DESPITE DIVIDES AND PROBLEMS....Gary Lightbody and friends, I SALUTE YOU ALL...ONE AND ALL.
Fantastic interview. As an American living in NI, it really highlighted all in f the things I love about Norn’ Iron. It also put into focus the potential to change some of the more divisive issues. Gary also could not have been more down to Earth in person. He chatted away to each person he met. A true Ulsterman.
Interview starts at 18:10
I know what you mean,Without alcohol there is a life,but finding a new way of living is the key!Also sober since 2012.
Excellent interview!! Snow Patrol is always one of my favourite band and Gary is such a talented star. Hope to hear their new album soon.
Amazing interview. Gary you are a light. You are an inspiration and do not underestimate yourself. I wish you all the best.
Awesome interview. I love Gary, and his music has helped me through some hard times and now influences my own music. I hope that Gary is loved tremendously in Ireland💚
I saw them play a few weeks ago in Dunfermline, what a fantastic man he is! had me bawling about his dad and overcoming his addictions.
Oh my, what a beautiful man. Tears to 'Soon'.
Gary es un héroe. Primero tuvo que luchar contra su depresión y el alcoholismo y cuando ya se encontraba bien se encuentra con la enfermedad de su padre. Lo amo como persona y amo su música.
What a beautiful soul.
Wonderful, honest interview - thank you. Discovered Snow Patrol in 2008 here in Toronto, Canada at the of 58. Love the depth of Gary's lyrics & voice and the band's ability to produce beautiful, touching melodies. Love Eyes Opened, Hundred Million Suns, SP - Up To Now.
Gary, your simply the best. Honest and Down to Earth human being.
Gary A beautiful song of growing up and love for N. Ireland. I hope it can go on your next album. From an exile in England who after all these years still feels the pull to go ‘home’.
Love this man💖💖❄️
❤❤❤❄️😊
That last song is beautiful! Should be recorded, truly!!!!! ❤️❤️
8:30 Daniel Ferguson, I want to say extraordinarily beautiful...and I've not heard the speech yet, but I have read the comments. You remind me of someone. Well done sir.

There Is No Beauty Without Happiness
My best friend also loves Gary. She also had a rough time
Unfortunately, I do not understand all the words, some references, but still whirls.
Gary, - I agree with you - you are very sensitive, and very honest. (We can see close-up - narrow second plan - only from 50th min. I don't understand why. )
Happy days - I was the Derry wan with the loud mouth
That song makes me wish I was raised in North Ireland...
Does Daniel Ferguson have a spotify/Instagram where I can hear more?
Oh my God it’s it’s it’s waylon Jennings and Burl Ives live at San Diego California

Gary avoids crying when he is talking about his dad. As a Latina, I don't understand why men aren't allowed to cry in some European countries.
