when billy bragg sang this song the other night, it just went like a straight shot to my heart. so much beautiful music made at the concert but i think i liked this best of all.
Your vantage point was so much better than mine last night! Thanks for posting - this one brought me to tears hearing it live and so happy to hear it again today.
I met Billy years ago at the Somerville Theater after the show. We had some good laughs. When he said he'd take a request or two I yelled out Bush War blues and he played it
Ive been a fan of Billy since Life's a Riot, and the haters have never seen him in concert. I hope this terrific rendition converts a few, and they see one of the most underrated live acts about. You will NOT be disappointed.
Been a fan since Back to Basics, Billy has earned the right to cover anything he damn well pleases so thanks for those who posted this .... now if you can get him to cover "space oddity " I think my life would be complete 😂
Love you Billy and The Dubliners and Bless Shane, wherever he is now- love you all for the music and inspiration to keep on keeping on...Namaste from Canada ( please come and STOP Pierre the Terrible Poilievre from getting elected...)
I was always a fan of Billy Bragg but now ?? Not a good cover of a wicked song...no passion. Carneige Hall is for the rich...what's happened to your socialist values Billy?
The Pogues and Billy Bragg; soundtrack of my youth....

The “Bard of Barking” strikes pure gold.
Loved that - cheers Billy. Hoping to see you at Northern Kin, please add to the playlist.
Love Victoria dancing in the back😢
Fantastic Billy Bragg 👏👏👏
Great cover ❤
Thank you, William. A nice rendition of my second favourite Pogues' song.
You’re the measure of my dreams… One of the best lyrics ever written?
Superb stuff Billy ❤ it mate
❤
Wow he did a beautiful job! May I share??
This is beautiful, thank you for sharing! It's just a shame it was shot in vertical format rather than landscape.
Nice rendition loved it was that Shane's Wife dancing? 🍀 👍
RIP Shane
BRUTAL VERSION 😢

Larry Campbell way off to right?
indeed
Peace Love Cool RFS Israel *.
Jesus sounds like he's auditioning for Oliver Twist with this version
Very poor Billy surprised at you
Not a great cover, at least he didn’t skip the verse with the best line in it. The ginger lady by my bed (a bottle of red bush whiskey)😂
Not good. Shame . I wanted it to be good. On upside , it shows how good Shane's version is.
He Shouldn't be allowed to sing a classic like that
It's Billy Bragg- he is one of the few who can sing Shane's songs. He gets it
He’s a legend singing a tribute to another legend.
Dreadful!
I was always a fan of Billy Bragg but now ??

magnificent
Aside from being a nonsense argument, you do realise that this wasn't his gig don't you?
Ignorant comment
Great job. Where was Spider?
