It's unfortunate that in 2020 we have to qualify our remarks to identify our color, race or ethnicity. Here, we're all music lovers but mainly we're all part of the melting pot & the greatest country in the history of the world. Keep America Great!!!!
i love Girsa played one of their cds at my son jimmy patricks funeral Mass. my son went to Ireland alone at 17 years old earning every dollar cooking banquets since 14 years old.
Sou ds like traditional ballads the scots-irish immigrants brought over to America with them back in the day. They were homesick in their new country and the music they brought with them warmed their hearts. Appalachian and Blue Ridge forever.
A bluegrass version of this was performed by a group called "The Darlings" on the Andy Griffith show in the 60's. The blonde lady, Maggie Peterson, had a really great voice in that episode when she sang this song. The referred to this song as simply "that love song", not mentioning the title of it. I also think the banjo player was quite good.
It was written, words and music, by Rodney Dillard. The Dillard brothers were the Darling "boys" on the Andy Griffith Show. The were a popular American bluegrass group at the time. Sadly, Rodney has passed away.
@@barbarabaker7470 - No. Mitch Jayne (Bassist) wrote the lyrics - Rodney (guitar, dobro) wrote the music. This is the way they have ALL told the story - Rodney, himself, Mitch Jayne - and Maggie Peterson. And Rodney is still very much alive, and still performing. Doug (banjo) has walked on, as has Dean Webb (mandolin), and Mitch (most recently). But Rodney is the last man standing - at 80 yrs old.
i love this group. i was driving cross country and saw a sign for an irish festival so i stopped and watched them play. then when i got home my friend got me tickets to another irish fest and they were playing at that as well. good times.
The Dillards ("Darlings") version is the original. The song was written by Mitch Jayne (bassist - lyrics) and Rodney Dillard (guitar, dobro - melody). The song was written specifically for that episode of the Andy Griffith Show. They have all walked on, now, except for Rodney. He is still making music - still touring - at 80 yrs old. Still sounds the same.
OMG! They sound AMAZING! What a great sound and performance! And not to mention the total overload of beauty in this video! What a great job!! kudus!!!!
Gorgeous and talented! Nice adaptation of this song. Have the Dillards heard this? I wonder if they realize that their composition will endure? I'll check out your other stuff. Charming accent after the song.
To clarify Rodney Dillard and Mitch Jayne wrote the original song. Rodney is the guitarist. Mitch was the bass player. They also composed "Dooley" and "Ebo Walker". Probably a lot of others too. I like the arrangement done here. If any other tubers are checking out different renditions be sure to watch the Nitty Gritty Dirty Band's version. Thanks again to the ladies for the beautiful music.
totally loved it--just a great job and the 8 of ya work well together---hope your friendship and days of playing together last a life time..you dont need fame to enjoy the friends and music you ladys have
what? not good? sounds like they are honoring true blue grass/Celtic roots here... one version is not better than the other.. just magnificently different in a unique way.
Absolutely correct. We must remember in America that the roots of Bluegrass sprouted from Irish and Scottish ballads. These Ladies do a fine, fine Job! Love the "Irish Lilt"
I feel it's just a matter of preference. This version is good and all, but I do prefer the version of the Dillards w/ Maggie Peterson. As I said, it's just a preference.
silly girls.....but boy can they sing and play. this is maybe the best version of this song I've heard so far. A new stanza in it too. Good goin' girls. You did the writer full justice.
I think Americans did a better job. Uncle Earl's (from Kentucky) blue grass CD from Walmart or download. The instrument and the voice are better skilled! My personal opinion!
leave it charlene and the darlings please...modern country treatment of a bluegrass staple is grounds for havin ya card taken torn up and burnt in front of ya dont take the tradition for traditional music
girsamusic ...didnt say you were a country band i said the song and vocal production was done in the modern style of country...seriously a hanging condenser mic and a coffee can would have made this REAL...rather than a modern remake of a bluegrass classic
ok thats great and im proud of ireland i mean it but the treatment of it in every recording other than this is bluegrass so you can see where my confusion would come into play
I'm not Irish or Whiite, but I like good music. Live the done, and this version. Ps I am a BLACK MAN. #GOOD MUSIC IS GOOD MUSIC.......

I'm sorry for your loss. xx
The loss of a child is a terrible thing. I am so sorry for your loss.
Sorry for your loss may God heal your 💜
I was wanting to hear a slower version of this song and this is exactly what I was looking for. What a great cover! Well done!

Maggie Peterson passed away earlier this month at the age of 81.

@@wandamundy1759 thank you for the corrections. I simply don't remember where I got that incorrect information. Sorry for the mixup.
Beautiful harmonies .
A beautiful song-sung by beautiful ladies, and I'm Irish too!
Love that old southern harmony
Love this version!

dont knock them ,,,listen to the music ,the singing`` far enough east meets west, binging it all back home etc....there are big connections!
It's OK to love our Scot and Irish roots. Traditional music is our strongest link to our roots. It's OK to be white and God bless our tradition.
Wow, so no people of color in your country??
why do people get butt hurt if a white person has love for their heritage and traditions @@noggie3934

DON'T KNOW IF THE DILLARD'S HEARD IT, BUT THEY HAD TO GET THE RIGHTS FROM THEM.
The song is as beautiful as Y'all.
Best version I've heard.
I really do not care what you call it I like it...
Love this song and you gals look like you are having so much. :) Thanks for posting.
okay why do I actually genuinely love this-
Because it’s good!!!
@@victorecheverria5741 i second this motion
maybe because you are Welsh😅
I think ya'll did just a fine fine job - Nice tempo Too!!!
Luv these ladies great cover🎉
totally loved it--just a great job and the 8 of ya work well together---hope your friendship and days of playing together last a life time..you dont need fame to enjoy the friends and music you ladys have
Wow. Awesome. I would go so far as to use the word "Haunting". Wonderful.
Loved it! You ladies are great!
Uncle Earl did a better job and deeper spiritually
that was SOOOO beautiful!! i just heard this song on Andy Griffith and had to look it up. You girls really do it justice. Thank you, I just subscribed
I think t is different than any I've heard. I really like it. It would be one of those songs you hum for the rest of the day. Beautiful..
Haven't head a dirge in a while I love it
This group plays the best version of this song
True sisterhood! So missing today!
One old English folkie likes this version, would have preferred to see a vid of them performing,,but thanks anyway.
Beautiful ladies that's for sure, and very talented
Nice cover of a great song.
Nice job on the harmony.
thank you...
It's not traditional irish but rather is american bluegrass but it's a great remake.
Absolutely love it!
beautiful!

Mitch Jayne and Rodney Dillard wrote this song recorded in 63..
KEEP SHARING EVERY CHANCE I GET.
great! when is it? am I young again?
Beautiful. Echo Valley also does a great version of this song.
great rendition
Awesome !!!
Good job Bla!
no no no i like it slow. i want to hear it even slower and just with a guitar...kind of bluesy.
Are you still looking to get a recording contract?
and where exactly is this field at again?
Bonnie music
Are all these girls from Pearl River?
My servename is also Girsa
Have you noticed every time an Irish person says almost anything it sounds like a question? I like though.
they look like there off one of those celtic women pbs shows
Do the curly hair thing!
Osm
beautiful harmony but, so slow they turned it into a dirge.
I think Americans did a better job. Uncle Earl's (from Kentucky) blue grass CD from Walmart or download. The instrument and the voice are better skilled! My personal opinion!
what do you consider gypsy-ish........
Please stop!!! Give me the Dilliards
not blue grass....1963...folk...
This sounds too slow...?
q; why don't you credit the .... writer/composer ...you do a decent cover,,,but you didn't write
As a former DJ and MC for five years at a live concert venue this is one of the worst performances of this song I have ever heard.
This version is too slow.
No. The other versions are too fast. LMAO
Holy estrogen, Batman!
Who knew women could even sing?
Zyq
I have never heard a beautiful bluegrass ballad butchered so badly in my life.
too slow
leave it charlene and the darlings please...modern country treatment of a bluegrass staple is grounds for havin ya card taken torn up and burnt in front of ya dont take the tradition for traditional music
Sorry you didn't enjoy it! :( we are a traditional Irish band (not country) and just really enjoyed the song!
girsamusic ...didnt say you were a country band i said the song and vocal production was done in the modern style of country...seriously a hanging condenser mic and a coffee can would have made this REAL...rather than a modern remake of a bluegrass classic
*****
I agreed. Kentucky's Uncle Earl did a better job in Instrument and voice. Deeper spiritually!
It isn't blue grass. its traditional celtic folk...
ok thats great and im proud of ireland i mean it but the treatment of it in every recording other than this is bluegrass so you can see where my confusion would come into play
why's she singing it all weird? like she halts mid word. nope..Bluegrass or not at all.
Traditional? Are you mental..
Still my favourite version of this song. Well done!
this is my favorite version of this song, very pretty singing and great music
Havenr heard this in 2 or 3 years. I suppose this is my favourite version of this song.
pretty and different version of this song, sounds more traditional folk and it works well
no electronics so id say traditional yes, all accoustic and old fashion so that would constitute traditional
