Ronnie Drew - Nora
Просмотров 176 тыс.13 лет назад
The song Nora from Sean O'Casey's The Plough and the Stars. Lyrics Oh the violets were scenting the woods, Nora Displaying their charm to the bee When I first said I loved only you, Nora And you said you loved only me The chestnut blooms gleamed through the glade, Nora A robin sang loud from a tree When I first said I loved only you, Nora And you said you loved only me The golden-robed daffodil...
magnificent. maura o connells version is different but equally as good.
Mijn oma en mijn dochter heten Nora dus ja beter worden liedjes niet
KEITH IS HEART....
I listen to this song quite often Just Great
What enchantment, from a truly missed.but never forgotten maestro.
When did they change the name of this song to maggie x
Love this 💜
Ronnie, du fehlst!
What a voice!
This is very peaceful. I feel after running so kilometers for nothing, finally I sit back & getting peace which I'm looking for. Some things like this music really teach us & we start believing, life is just for peace.
Legendary music
Lyrics of 200 years ago ...so unique...
What a sound ! Great Ronnie
Very nice, these things or music seems like prayer...oh Lord thankyou for everything for this beautiful life & your blessings
No doubt world is wonderful & full of strange things but it doesn't mean that not interesting. All depends on state of mind & personal thinking & self liking and much more. Just one thing is true, God is great & world always beautiful just need to have good eyes to see
The song when you and I were young Maggie was written in 1866? By gorge w Thomson and became popular on phonograph record's in the early 1900s Nora was written by jhonny McEvoy if I'm not mistaken. Such a unique voice there'll never be another like his.
You are mistaken . B
Amazing Ronnie Drew the best Version of Nora

Ronnie My Idol ever this amazing song thank you Ronnie
I love this song! It has my name ❤️
Is there a similar song to this that uses the name Maggie rather than Nora?
Yes. Exact same. And from.the play by sean.o'casey. Another great Dub
Thanks Mike :)
Supposedly written by a Canadian to his love dying of cancer
One of the best things I've ever found on youtube.
I saw this in the Abbey Theatre 5 years ago. There wasn't a dry eye in the house.
Supreme.
Oh! I love so much his voice!
Me too
nora
R.I.P Ronnie Drew.😢
right-o
Sang at my beautiful nanny noras funeral xx love you always xx
Well sung. And great lead guitar work! The song comes from "When You and I Were Young Maggie". The original words were in a poem written in the mid-1800's by a Canadian teacher from Hamilton, Ontario. Maggie was his wife who died young. James A Butterfield, an English-born American composed this beautiful tune for the poem some time later. It became popular all over the world. The song gained new life in the 1920's when it was used in Sean O'Casey's play.
O'Casey used it in " the plough and the stars " James Connolly's daughter was named Nora and she married an ICA soldier , I assume that's who O'Casey named the character for , he would have known them all from when he was in the ICA
For those who don't know Nora is a character from the Plough and the Stars, a great novel about a tenement house in Dublin during 1916, Nora is the wife of Jack Who used to sing her this song, but he died in the rising. A great song for a great book.
Jamie O'Callaghan and now you ruined it for everyone ha ha , i have the movie uploaded if your interested .
True- though the song predates that play by 60 years. The original song uses the name “Maggie,” which O’Casey replaced with the character’s name “Nora.”
Thank you for telling. I kind of remembered or guessed that this song could not be just a great love song but had some connection to the rising something like Grace maybe not that great story but still a great love song me favorite anyway. Thanks
@@nickyreynolds3326correct , it was Maggie and written by a Canadian , O'Casey being a member of James Connollys ICA would have known his daughter Nora who was also in the ICA so I always assumed he named the character after Nora Connolly ,
Few who can tell a story as well through a song like Ronnie Drew <3
So true...
