Walking through the snowy streets of York, in the winter of 2001 half drunk with my first girlfriend happy and free. This song blaring out of the HMV store shop front as the snow falls heavily

Love, love, love this song! In a world of Lizzo, Beiber & Swift.. we need more David Gray.

This should have 100K likes. People need to see and hear this. It's a powerful tribute to those who've lost their love but found them again.

Listened to this for the first time in many years. I couldn;t hear 2 bars before breaking down and crying.Was a song with a woman who changed her mind about me. It's good to enjoy the song as it was meant to be heard again. Time does heal all wounds.

Yep I still say her name, Amy, in my autonomic nervous system...one of my few virtual panic attacks...thanx for Fripp's caveat in Lisin' True...we never had 'em...love his empathy low note around 4:10 at end if song & his solo...b synth, they say...Dr. Fripp knows & sooner or later everbod gotta see the Doc

"The love that I was giving you was never in doubt." Truer words have never been written in a song.

My God, David Gray is so much better live than recorded. There aren’t many music artists who can say that. ❤

Friday night, I'm going nowhere All the lights are changing green to red Turning over TV stations Situations running through my head Looking back through time You know it's clear that I've been blind, I've been a fool To open up my heart to all that jealousy That bitterness, that ridicule Saturday, I'm running wild And all the lights are changing red to green Moving through the crowds I'm pushing Chemicals are rushing in my bloodstream Only wish that you were here You know I'm seeing it so clear I've been afraid To show you how I really feel Admit to some of those bad mistakes I've made And if you want it Come and get it Crying out loud The love that I was Giving you was Never in doubt Let go of your heart Let go of your head And feel it now Let go of your heart Let go of your head And feel it now Babylon, Babylon, Babylon Sunday, all the lights of London shining Sky is fading red to blue Kicking through the autumn leaves And wondering where it is you might be going to Turning back for home You know I'm feeling so alone I can't believe Climbing on the stair I turn around to see you smiling there In front of me And if you want it Come and get it Crying out loud The love that I was Giving you was Never in doubt Let go of your heart Let go of your head And feel it now Let go of your heart Let go of your head And feel it now Let go of your heart Let go of your head And feel it now Let go of your heart Let go of your head And feel it now Babylon, Babylon, Babylon, Babylon, Babylon Ah

David Gray is one of the BEST performers in the world! Not only does he have the most gorgeous personality (his wife is very lucky!) but he plays guitar and piano beautifully and his voice is from another planet - just divine! Thanks for sharing your soul in your music with the world. A true gift of a person. x

Oh wow, you saved me in 2001/2002 with this song, TY. I was 43 and had to finally say no more on a 27 yr marriage, bless you and I love you, TY!!

One of the best songs ever made even better sung live, thanks David.

Absolutely!!

I love his voice. To my ear he's one of the best singers the UK has produced over the last 20 years or so. I know that's a bold statement but I honestly can't think of many more with such a distinct, soulful and powerful voice. Plus he's always in tune. Simon Cowell would cut off one of his balls to have found David Gray.

After the fall of Babylon; people would say, babble on when you'd mention it. This song captures that essence. This guy does it right.

I’m so in love with this song! The musical composition, simplicity in his raspy voice, the relatable lyrics. I will forever listen to this song on repeat! ❤️🎵

This song makes reminiscing feel so nostalgic. Beautifully done.

Dude was in his BAGGG when he made this, a masterpiece.

The most beautiful song in the world. I'd give anything to see him in a setting like this.

Three foul mouthed lads purged on the void of greatness. 😀

Absolute UK classic! He’s incredible reminds me so much of the 2000s in England!

I dearly love David Gray, so glad I found this!

Fond memories of Zermatt from the early 70s! Never went there but remember many sweaty nights in London with the daughter of Zermatt’s station master! Oh sweet memories. What a girl; what nights and days.

Thanks Jules B andJeff S for such great comments. I was lucky to be in his his first recorded concert at The Point in Dublin. This is favourite song of all time. Means so much to me in Australia.

What a great, generous perfomer. Bravo David.

20/20 born in 85. Still lost. Faith and love keeps us holding. Cheers and amor for those still looking. I've felt it, lost it, and it's still worth it. That's why we should fight for it. A weak grasp or a tight clinch. It doesn't matter.

I'm one of your Spotify top fans! But you got it wrong David, it's your passion that keeps it going. Watching you reminds me of how much passion I have. It saved my life when I was lost, and keeps reminding how much of love I have for music. I can find that love of life again. Thank you

This is what unplugged means thank you xx

Great singer songwriter. White Ladder is a classic album. Ed Sheeran and the like couldn't lace his boots

Love the huskiness in his voice, such a beautiful song.

This song reminds me of one night when my father brought pizza home, he is very happy by his side.

This is lovely, beautiful, thank you David

It's never in doubt, David's CD's are driving down the highway listening music.

David gray. Hes all we need in music now.

Music made with so much love! @David Gray Please Come Back To Zermatt :)

Superb version, Dublin loves David Gray...

This is the most sublime concert I have ever heard. I am so glad someone captured it for all to hear!

Fantastic, by looking back this song has reminded me of a few things. I was only ever really motivated by finding love. Thats why I'm not rich, but I'm happy. Wish you guys happiness too :)

Lockdown...and I have tears in my eyes, wonderful song

One of the most beautiful songs ever written

I have always loved listening to David Gray and this is a fantastic live version of Babylon. I don't think the Swiss audience understood David's joke about interior design ideas! Our British sense of humour is very different from other European and indeed North American countries. And whilst on the subject of differences, yes "humour" is spelt correctly using the Oxford English Dictionary! Lol

As an American, I too didn't understand the "interior design" joke.

First time I heard/saw you was on Jools Hollands show gotta admit I tuned in because John Martyn and Joan Baez were on the bill but I'll never forget your 2 songs Bird's without wings and Shine we recorded the show and played it over and over 👌 my fav is Livingroom😊 😊😊😊

Why hasnt this had millions of veiws? Beautiful, Brlliant ,

Two ladies dancing at the end are phenomenal..

Perfect antidote to Fripp's Losin' True with Maggie (The Roches)..we never had her Loving vs. In Love! Sooner or later everyone has to see the Doctor; Fripp's sustained low note at near end of solo is catharsis... empath..like Heroes & Eno's collaborations with the Doc...David Gray is up in these stratospheres.. Blessu Amy

Just beautiful !! Always loved this track by David Gray - this live rendition is super, and great to see David smiling and enjoying his audience. Wow! Thanks a million for uploading this , and all the other great performances, Marcel!

I remember the first time I heard this song. Great song great music

Truly a great "from the heart" performer and one of the best songs around

Always reminds me of that 1 .....special person whi changed the perspective of your like God bless 🙌 you Mr grey ❤️

except he's not, he's english lol. did you ever even bother to look us his wikipedia page or did you just assume he was irish because he was popular there? knowing how much the irish like to give out about british media claiming irish people as british, i would have thought you'd do a bit more research.

Thank you Marcel for posting! What an inspirational performance...wish I could have been there...

I love this song, so many memories it takes me to, some sad and some happy , the direction of life. Xxx

One of my favourite tunes in my most favourite of places !!!!

What a great version of a great song! U clever man, Mr Gray! :-)

superior song writer

Feels like most of the audience are hardly engaging at all. I've seen David play this live three times now and each time pretty much the whole audience were singing to the point where he stopped and let us take over. Such a shame they didn't appreciate a great live performance of what is my favourite song.

I love you, David Gray. I love your songs. Thank you.

i work on ship..nd i'll tell u tht dis one jst filld my emptiness here..listen it daily..such a wonderful nd blissful songb

Great song - thanks for getting the audience to sing and clap along.

Beautiful

Nintendough Crazee!!...You are sooo right,my friend!!..I didn't realize that it was actually BREAD & POGO & other greats that this is surely reminding me of!!...We are both,ofcourse,telling our generation,but Britian`s music has also been inspiring,ingesting,repeating & starting great music for YEARS!!...Luv UK musicians & music lovers!!...they are so 'pure'.......a Chicago-edgy Gurl

Wonderful.

This feels very honest and true. A lovely song and performance.

Before Ed Sheeran there was DAVID GRAY! One of my favourites!

This song particularly the guitar and melody reminds me of a cross between the band America and the band Bread.

What a beautiful song.

So me 6:45 in the front row! Who could resist? Holy moly! This is good! I mean gooooood!

Thank you so much for posting these David Gray videos. Babylon reminds me of such a bittersweet time. This song has become part of me.

❤❤ absolute love, what an album too by the way.

Simply brilliant

What song! Need to see him live again! Need a 2018 Tour!

Fantastic song. 👌

If I was there I would be belting out this tune at the top of my lungs. LOVE IT! Its so sad that Dave doesn't have a more interactive audience. He would have to dig deep to sing with this audience. Hard gig! Great job though Dave x

Evervecance Acoustic was Awesome❣Love her voice and all of thier songs.💞⚘☘🕊😘

The intro with the guitar reminds me of Ventura Highway by America..

Simply!! WoW❤🔥
