"Snow Patrol frontman Gary Lightbody has claimed that being in the band has cost him friendships in the past. The singer said that he is so devoted to the &amp;#039;Just Say Yes&amp;#039; group that he has ended relationships in order to stay focussed on their progression. &amp;quot;All my relationships have ended because of the band, though 99% of the time that was down to me,&amp;quot; he told The Times.  &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;m never there and when I am there, I&amp;#039;m not really present. I&amp;#039;m always thinking about the band and music too much. Then I don&amp;#039;t get to see my family a lot.  &amp;quot;I see my niece Honey, who&amp;#039;s 2, every few months or so and it breaks my heart because I love her to bits.&amp;quot; &amp;gt; Snow Patrol: &amp;#039;Fans don&amp;#039;t recognise us&amp;#039; "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
