All about Snow PatrolÂ
Who are Snow Patrol: Gary Lightbody (vocals, guitar), Nathan Connolly (guitar, backing vocals), Paul Wilson (bass guitar, backing vocals), Jonny Quinn (drums), and Johnny McDaid (piano, guitar, backing vocals) formed the Northern Irish–Scottish rock band Snow Patrol in 1994. Their first two studio albums, Songs for Polarbears (1998) and When It’s All Over We Still Have to Clear Up (2001), didn’t make it good. Their major-label debut album, Final Straw, the following year, with “Run”, was the album’s biggest hit where the band rose to prominence. Their next studio album, Eyes Open (2006), and its hit single, “Chasing Cars”—reported in 2019 to be the most-played song of the 21st century on UK radio.

The band started by performing gigs at the university and surrounding pubs such as Lucifer’s Mill.
Snow Patrol originated from a band called Shrug, which formed in 1994 and consisted of Gary Lightbody, Michael Morrison, and Mark McClelland.

Chasing Cars
Length: 4:27
Release: 2006
Opening Lyrics:
Everything
On our own
Anything
Or anyone
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
How to say
How I feel
Are said too much
They’re not enough
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
Run
Length: 5:54
Release: 2003
Opening Lyrics:
Then we really have to go
You’ve been the only thing that’s right
In all I’ve done
But every single time I do
I know we’ll make it anywhere
Away from here
As if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I’ll be right beside you dear
Open Your Eyes
Length: 5:41
Release: 2006
Opening Lyrics:
And I won’t waste a minute without you
My bones ache, my skin feels cold
And I’m getting so tired and so old
And I won’t feel these slices and cuts
I want so much to open your eyes
‘Cause I need you to look into mine
Tell me that you’ll open your eyes
Tell me that you’ll open your eyes
Tell me that you’ll open your eyes
‘Cause they don’t get your soul or your fire
Take my hand, knot your fingers through mine
And we’ll walk from this dark room for the last time
Just Say Yes
Length: 4:41
Release: 2009
Opening Lyrics:
I want you to stay here beside me
I won’t be ok and I won’t pretend I am
So just tell me today and take my hand
Please take my hand
Please take my hand
Please take my hand
Please take my hand
It’s not a test, nor a trick of the mind
Only love
You know it is
We can’t be to and fro like this
All our lives
You’re the only way to me
You Could Be Happy
Length: 3:02
Release: 2006
Opening Lyrics:
But you weren’t happy the day I watched you go
Are played in loops till it’s madness in my head
But not our last days of silence, screaming, blur
I should have stopped you from walking out the door
You made me happier than I’d been by far
And for the tiniest moment it’s all not true
