Nostalgia and loneliness, in short. The song is about an old woman who remembers her friends in pictures and the voices in her memory, how even though she was poor she was happy when she was young. Whiskey on a Sunday was written about a man outside a pub in the early 1900's, which is when many girls were sent to work in factories. The music is upbeat but the lyrics are lonely in the end - she remembers she took someone's pride who had captured her heart and then wishes he was with her.
It is also about David King's parents. His mom worked in a factory where she cleaned laundry for a living. She is now a widow and lices alone. I love the final part about King Richard because he is singing about his dad, Richard King, and it is very clever. Also, if you alread you all of this than I apoligize for making you read all that.
I really dont think they were going for the realistic look, but good call. I think they did a good job for what "I think" they were trying to do. and of course,,,,great song.
this is my favourite song from this band..
one of the top 5 of all the songs ive ever heard..

that's a great video....so simple and so great
That's a pretty good example of simplicism. You can make wonders with paint aha!
It's nice to see a homemade animated video that doesn't look like total shit.
Kudos on the video. And the choice of music. Flogging Molly is amazing.

i think ill never look at this song the same way again... in a bad way
@thegodfather5 Did it again in tonight in St. Louis. I just got back from seeing them at the Pageant.
Wow, pretty harsh comments. I think it's pretty good.
@Paczilla1
That Thursday thing in particular...
I literally laughed at the awful drawing of the factory girls singing.
this is funny
@FissionNonStop what the hell was so revolting about it?
No I didnt and thank you for sharing the meaning

I think the lyrics are a bit more figurtive than displayed here but still good fun...
yeah, but today is monday :)
lol......it probably took some time to make this vid but I find it mildly disturbing :D
vid is to meh to me but love song
looks like somebody got bored with paint
hmmmmmm not the best one but well done
@mrqwert5 photoshop? man, are you being sarcastic? cause that's not very nice :P
at least make the chick Irish!
video is decent but childish
great song though
though i love this band, the dubliners version is much better
I think this tune is mediocre and boring.
Thanks for ruining such a great song..
