They kept revisiting the Oscar-winning cut on subsequent tour dates, but now we have perhaps the most polished rendition yet &#8212; and in official form no less. Live from the Dublin home of Ireland&#8217;s president (aka \u00c1ras an Uachtar\u00e1in), they turned in an intimate, unplugged rendition originally aired on St. Patrick&#8217;s Day before it hit the web thanks to RTE soon after. Aside from a pint of Guinness, it&#8217;s hard to imagine a better way to celebrate both of these events any day. So, without further ado, watch Glen and Lisa harmonize above.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last fall we heard Glen Hansard and Lisa Hannigan &#8212; an Irish pair of 24B regulars &#8212; take on the Swell Season&#8217;s &#8220;Falling Slowly&#8221; live on stage.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1202","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.twentyfourbit.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1202","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.twentyfourbit.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.twentyfourbit.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.twentyfourbit.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.twentyfourbit.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1202"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www.twentyfourbit.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1202\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1206,"href":"https:\/\/www.twentyfourbit.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1202\/revisions\/1206"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.twentyfourbit.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1202"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.twentyfourbit.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1202"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.twentyfourbit.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1202"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
