I love this song , I love Irish music and the Irish people . This song always brings a tear to my eye, the most sad love song ever . I love you Ireland , may you be a United republic forever .
My heart swells with compassion , when ever I hear this True story told or sung . I care not a jot who tells or sings as long as it's done with love and understanding . may the memory of JOSEPH MARY PLUNKETT & GRACE EVELYN GIFFORD PLUNKETT ENDURE ETERNAL
I do have to agree with you completely, as an Englishman myself... However, we still are of course, just look at the spectacle you're viewing? Does everyone not realise that Joe and his comrades gave their lives fighting against the British Empire and here we have Sir Rod who was more than happy to accept a "CBE" (Commander of the British Empire) and hounor which was introduced by the very King (King George V) at the time of the Rising, with the words "For God and The Empire" emblazoned on it. Really? Those who think this is appropriate should look at their hearts and ask the question just how many times they have actually bothered their arses to walk up Arbour Hill and pray at their grave side, or bothered to get to Dublin to attend the 100th Anniversary at the GPO in 2016, or really understood the real history behind the Easter Rising. So sad, especially as the 105th Anniversary is only a week or so away...For what died the sons of Roisin, was it greed? Or as Patrick Pearse put it..., The Fools, The Fools, The Fools!
He’s brilliant to go and see live, saw him at Edinburgh Castle, shame the heavens opened up, but it didn’t dampen our spirits. Rod Stewart for ever. So pleased he sung that for the Irish people, who are very nice people.
Great concert wish I had been there. The audience was really apart of the performance of Rod Stewart. I love that song and I love the country of Ireland ☘️
Yes Rod Stewart did a great job of this song But it is a very sad song and the memories of the history of what the English did to the Irish people I don't hate the English Its history but never forgotten But no absolutely no hate
@Janette Davis I watched that show to Janette and I don't believe he insulted the guests and Graham. If he was a royalist, he would be supporting Rangers Football Club, not Celtic. Also, did you see the interview on the Late Late show where he met the 2 men who composed this lovely tune? If he was a royalist, they wouldn't have hugged him and thanked him for putting this song on his newest album. You are entitled to your opinion, your interpretation, but I don't believe he's a royalist. He may be english, born there, but definitely not a royalist. Do you think all those people in Cork would have shown up for his concert? Not a chance.
His father was Scottish from leith and a huge hubs fan and Rod was born in England but he will tell you he’s proud to be Scottish lol he also supports the scottish national team and of course Celtic 🏴💚
i had the great pleasure to be in pairc ui chaoimh on that day . it was a memorable day and not to be forgotten . it was also a sad weekend as i lost a great friend and neighbour . this reminds me of eamonn
Thank you Rod Stewart for such a sensitive interpretation of this memorial to our great men who died for freedom for their people. A hundred years later, traitors have sold our freedom to fill out their swiss bank accounts and make slaves of working man and woman.
Complety agree with that history normally repeats itself the English aren't here now so the so called Patriots of fianna fail and fianna Gael will have no problem of putting the ordinary people down
This "political "comment is the VERY reason SIR Rod should have avoided this song. He tries in vain to justify it as a "love song" but we all know why it has become so popular at Parkhead and it certainly is not for romantic reasons as the soldiers in the video demonstrate.
I hope me and my sons new friends from Munich v Celtic 2017 were there and had a ball like we did showing respect to the dead in the concentation camp. excuse the spelling.
He has done an awesome Job on this song! He could sing the phone book and it would be a #1 hit like grace is. This song means alot to him in many ways.
There are probably better videos of this from the night but the sound quality was so good and it captured the atmosphere in the stadium and emotion in the crowd - he is a brilliant entertainer and what power he still has in his voice!
Another Stewart classic crowd singer Brilliant .Hes the only performer other than Jolson to have you at one time tripping the light fantastic then move you so strongly you can barely speak !
How many version of this song you know? Alright you prefor McCann. Rod Stewart knight by HM Queen Elizabeth II. I don't know Rod Stewart's Biographie - born in London? grow up in Scotia ? Feels Celtic? In times of BREXIT he goes as Sir Rod to Ireland what more can I tell
Janette davis you have wrote the same reply to virtually every post on here . Yes we have seen the graham norton show clip and he didnt offend anyone it was banter , you just keep repeating the same lie. Many of the ra were protestants and atheists not just catholic and a number of the irish cause were english by birth incuding historically a number of the original martyrs . I dont know what your agenda is but your not helping yourself by lying about easily referenced facts.
He is a Scot,the Scots suffered at the hands of the English also. I think it's great that he sang an Irish classic in Cork, the fans obviously loved it !
Sung by an english who wants to be scots why did you not sing these rebel songs in the 70s because it would have stopped it makin it big yes rod money comes first then your opion make your money first then say what you want was a big fan from early years your lps are goin in the bin shame on you english man i no england done bad things in the past bit so did america to native americans why why did you not mention that in l/vages you are a joke m8 i know you will not read this but the world will give america back to native americans (n ireland)
Sir Rod said that" the British empire was the greatest empire that the world had ever known" Hypocrite that he is. Lots of empty seats for this royal scrounger.

To hear that in the Rebel City... chills. I think the heroes of '16 would be proud of all of you.
I love this song , I love Irish music and the Irish people . This song always brings a tear to my eye, the most sad love song ever . I love you Ireland , may you be a United republic forever .
There’s an old expression the Ireland is the the land of happy wars and sad love songs. The proof is here to hear.
My heart swells with compassion , when ever I hear this True story told or sung . I care not a jot who tells or sings as long as it's done with love and understanding . may the memory of

I’m an English man and I love an amazing Irish lady and I’m appalled what was done to the irish in the name of the British empire.

@@skippership7 Bitterness will fuck you up
Paul buddy thanks for that👍👍
Still no change and history not though in in schools
I think Rod should be giving a free man of Ireland as a credit for his rendition of this song and from an English man I have always loved his attitude
Thank you so much rod for singing this beautiful song.it means a lot to your Irish fans .❤♣️
Agreed xx
May IRELAND be one on day as they will always be one ❤️ Tiochfaidh ár lá 🇮🇪
I hope he was a proud man to sing such a wonderful Irish song.. We Irish are the best in the world.
I just returned from Ireland - you Irish ARE the best!!!
He was always fascinated by the Irish and felt some sort of connection
Coming upp Saint, pats day, love you ireland 🇮🇪 neither forget kevin . Long live Eire.
I absolutely love this song. So moving. Huge credit to the sound crew on this, that is awesome! SAOIRSE 🙏❤️🙏
Have to agree- the sound was phenomenal and I couldn’t believe how clear each instrument was when I watched back…must have been in the “sweet spot” 👍🏻
Can feel the emotion in your voice. ☘️☘️

Very sad song. I am Irish and proud of the 1916 men.

Rod you the best, love this song,
Brilliant. Thanks for posting.
Nice to see Rod following his teams fans highlighting the wrongs done by the British many years ago.
❤❤❤
And of course lets not point out Irish wrongs
He is "Sir Rod".

Been to blackpool and bolton (i do get about abit) watching rod honestly say two great nights
He has done an awesome Job on this song! He could sing the phone book and it would be a #1 hit like grace is. This song means alot to him in many ways.
What a song. ☘️
Não me canso de ouvir ROD STEWART sou completamente apaixonada por ele 😙😙😙👏👏
Best sang at Parkhead by the Celtic fan's in my humble opinion...!!!!!
You're the man 👍👍
Thanks for posting. Very special
There are probably better videos of this from the night but the sound quality was so good and it captured the atmosphere in the stadium and emotion in the crowd - he is a brilliant entertainer and what power he still has in his voice!

Such beautiful song, such beautiful version. But I still prefer the JIm Mccann one
Sir Rod told us that the British empire was the greatest empire the world has ever known.
That empire shot Joe Plunkett, what say ye SIR Rod?
I like Rod Stewart, I love the song, but Jim McCann`s version is the definitive one - nobody comes even close
How many version of this song you know? Alright you prefor McCann. Rod Stewart knight by HM Queen Elizabeth II. I don't know Rod Stewart's Biographie - born in London? grow up in Scotia ? Feels Celtic? In times of BREXIT he goes as Sir Rod to Ireland what more can I tell
No way give me rod any day singing this beautiful song fantastic
great song how brave of rod to sing a Irish republican song
Chicken supper Bobby sands

No your Irish history before u speak
Filmed by a four year old.
The Irish cheering and singing along with an English man when it was the English that it caused it all for yous
Shows how stupid you are Rab wtf, yes the English caused many pains worldwide but Rod Stewart is SCOTTISH you Dick, ,
Rab wtf he’s scot
He is a Scot,the Scots suffered at the hands of the English also. I think it's great that he sang an Irish classic in Cork, the fans obviously loved it !

Grace Gifford would give this hypocrite a big side step.

Hypocrite that he is.

No relivance at all to Rod Stewart he's a bitter man
