My Hero! When God calls my name this song wont be too far away. Lizzy now and forever! Been part of my life since '73. One of the lucky ones. Had the honour of seeing you live on stage in Glasgow in '82. Never recovered xxxxxxxxx
I was at the gig...i was already a guitarist at that stage but after seeing Lizzy and Gary Moore I knew what direction I wanted to go and haven't looked back since.
Thin Lizzy was awesome. They are still one of my favorite bands. They're live performances were a testament to they're music, true and rock'in! RIP Phil.
i'm not even a thin lizzy fan bought live and dangerous on vinyl for next to nothing and got addicted to this song again- tears come from my eyes; it's just that perfect
You sinner, not a big Lizzy fan, your sines can never be forgiven until you have listened to every sing track they recorded then you will be converted for evermore.
I know Ive commented before on this song, this wonderful group, Phil and the boys, but thanks Ireland, Im 48yrs old and it still sends shivers down my spine, New Mexico thanks you whoever posted this video......
Don't know how old you are, but I saw Thin Lizzy live back in the late 70's when I was a teenager. Brian Robertson and Scott Gorham were a killer pair on guitars. To this day I still listen to Warriors like it came out yesterday because it was the best song they did that night. Both of them switching off leads on that song is still stuck in my head. Don't hear ANYTHING out there like that today.
I'm just getting very nostalgic watching this. To see Phil and how incredible he was, and to know he's been gone all these years. It fills me with joy to watch, but with sorrow thinking about Phil. Rock on boys! Rock on!
Im Ali i'm 19years old and i absolutely love Thin Lizzy. My dad waz a huge Lizzy Fan and i was brought up listning to it. we played this song at his funeral this year ! i am soo greatfull my dad had amazing taste in music. I hope he has met Phill now .... Soooo R.I.Rock Phill and R.I.Rock Dad .... Hope they are rockin out wherever they are xxxxxxxx
The day Phil Lynott died, was a very sad day for Ireland. He was the very best, and no one has ever come close to matching him. Totally unique at the time, from my memory.
I was there at the Opera House .I loved and still love Thin Lizzy ,Thunder and lightning is my fave record and Mexican Girl-is Phil Lynoot -Poetry in Motion.Also My Frinds and I were the idiots that climbed the slope of the opera House-The good ol days
Times are definitely changing. Work with a bunch of guys half my age and I managed to sneak this song onto the stereo in between the crap metal shit they're listening to these days. One of the kids had no idea who Thin Lizzy was. He told me this was the best song he'd ever heard.
This is great...my favourite band of all-time! Send shivers down my spine,everytime i listen to one of their songs...just beautiful! Just for the record,i love Gary Moore guitar playing,but Scott Gorham rules on his solo...just listen to the end of it!
Phil you are one of my biggest music influences. Im still heartbroken your gone. Just wanted to say thanks for the music. Peace and love to you wherever you are.
I love how Phil was trying to get the crowd as hyped up as he was - you can tell he loved this stuff. THIS is performing....THIS is rock and roll. Anything else is just a pale imitation. There is a longer version that continues on after they rip into "Boys are Back in Town", and Phil just lets them have it with both barrels. A consummate showman, and an amazing performer. Also, a completely underrated legend.
Just a really great performance of the tune. It's a great setup song for "The Boys..." If you listen/view this video again, listen to how sweet Phil's voice is live...
Love this soo much. Wish Philo was still out there...Awesome talent and thank god I got to see you live....Don't think you knew how talented you were....Our loss sadly ....
I refuse to disagree with you. I got to Thin Lizzy many times (but not enough time) it is true they were the greatest rocking band that ever-played live stage
How can 23 people dislike this. I was -10 months old when this gig happened.lol I think Thin Lizzy music is still amazing today!! I feel sad for Gary family. Chocking on vomit....so Spinal Tap!!
my gosh i just LOVE them so much. they were one of the best bands in history no doubt. i love how he plays the bass...his stance is like...top this m fer.
Thank God we were born in time to experience the greatest era of Rock and Roll. The sixties and seventies. All you teenagers take note, your parents know how to ROCK!!! Yes we were there, we heard it and saw it happen. It will never happen again. So enjoy the memories.
Can it get more perfect ...... !!!! Thin Lizzy at the Opera House in Sydney with the Harbour Bridge and the Harbour, I am so glad I was born into the generation that was in Sydney at this great time . Was the best place to be in the 70's ans 80's. Now !!!!! well....mmm
two very talentous axewielders, excellent musicians, those guitarrsit are insane!!tandem ..master of heavy metal music, thin lizzy are..so many bands are influenced by lizzy....it took me many years to understand... lizzy are kings...phil we´ll have a great debt with you....long live 4 u
I saw Thin Lizzy open for Journey in 1978 (?) at the Fabulous Forum in Los Angeles, and after the show I felt sorry for Journey. Thin Lizzy won the crowd and I was a fan for life.

This is one of the Greatest songs in rock history.
R.I.P. Phil and Gary
One of the most unappreciated bands in Rock and roll history!
amen!
"Under appreciate your own sorry ass.. .. do not EVER ' underrate' Thin Lizzy , I will hunt your carcass.. jcg110660. call me, ass.
wow you are the most degraded ass in history, wow ... under investigation..
"unappreciated" under rate ones self ass .. call me
Definitely underrated. They're not as huge as they should be. They're my favorite.
One of the best Lizzy videos I’ve ever seen. Gary Moore was on fire here. The whole band were. Magical!
Christ almighty - Gary really cooks here - Shame they didn't make more music together. Greatest Irish band ever
Greatest Band ever!!

@@jfk19780 think you mean rush.

Outstanding. I miss these guys so much.
My Hero! When God calls my name this song wont be too far away. Lizzy now and forever! Been part of my life since '73. One of the lucky ones. Had the honour of seeing you live on stage in Glasgow in '82. Never recovered xxxxxxxxx
I was at this concert, and what a concert it was!!!!!
Yes it was a great day in the sunshine .. TL and a case of beer on the Opera house steps with my friends.
Those guitar harmonies give me shivers, PHENOMENAL.
One of the best bass players, ever. RIP Phil. Long live Thin Lizzy.
I was at the gig...i was already a guitarist at that stage but after seeing Lizzy and Gary Moore I knew what direction I wanted to go and haven't looked back since.
Scott Gorham is a beast on the sixer and underrated as hell. Love all his solos.
Thin Lizzy was awesome. They are still one of my favorite bands. They're live performances were a testament to they're music, true and rock'in! RIP Phil.
WOW!!!! Just incredible.
Love Gary Moore, A true guitar legend but never forget Brian "ROBBO" Robertson was the Cowboy Song guitar legend. Robbo was my Thin Lizzy guitar hero.
Cut his hand in a fight hence Gary was drafted back into the band.
The vibe at this gig was unbelievable.
Whenever I need a song to lift my mood and put a smile on my face first thing in the day, this is it!!
Cowboy Song is my favorite song cuz when you alone under the stars then you understand
I feel this is one of the greatest rock songs ever written.
31 years without Phil... Great bassist/singer combo in rock history! Long live Thin Lizzy...
Phil comes to my mind most days, man I still miss Phil and always will, Thin Lizzy were the greatest rocking band of all times
time has past and youth has faded. thin lizzy still kicks ass in my book!
One of my all time favourites!
"Roll me over and set me free
The cowboys life is the life for me."
Phil, RIP!
Love this jam Thin Lizzy great music get all there music Phil's bass playing amazing guitars all awesome drum fantastic rock on in heaven ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Phil, Gary and Scott in their prime and at the height of their musical powers. Awesome live performance!
I love the look on Phil's face when he pauses at the end before singing, "Is the life for me." That knowing smile is beautiful.
Amazing band . Amazing musicians. Amazing music . RIP Gary and Phil , you are legends .
always sends shivers down my spine when the guitars kick in i was lucky enough to see these in 83. still ijn love with u lizzy
i'm not even a thin lizzy fan
bought live and dangerous on vinyl for next to nothing and got addicted to this song
again- tears come from my eyes; it's just that perfect
Arguable one of the best guitar solos ever! I could watch him play all day!
I'm not really a big Thin Lizzy fan, but this is one of the greatest songs ever written.
You sinner, not a big Lizzy fan, your sines can never be forgiven until you have listened to every sing track they recorded then you will be converted for evermore.
@@jamesbradshaw3389real

Simply on of the best! sorely missed. god bless you Phil
The day Phil Lynott died, was a very sad day for Ireland. He was the very best, and no one has ever come close to matching him. Totally unique at the time, from my memory.
Gary's scorching hot guitar solo... always awesome to watch!
I was there at the Opera House .I loved and still love Thin Lizzy ,Thunder and lightning is my fave record and Mexican Girl-is Phil Lynoot -Poetry in Motion.Also My Frinds and I were the idiots that climbed the slope of the opera House-The good ol days

im just thinking about a certain aunt. she was the best. she knew great rock n roll when she heard or saw it. RIP Claire Moyer. Love ya!
This is great...my favourite band of all-time!
Send shivers down my spine,everytime i listen to one of their songs...just beautiful!

Best line up. And one of the best live concerts I ever seen
My favourite song by Thin Lizzy. Makes my eyes tear up every time
Phil was the best. Wish I could have saw his live performance. Thin Lizzy music will never die!
Hard to imagine this was in 1978... They were so before their time really! What a band!!! They never got the credit they rightfully so much deserve!
Phil you are one of my biggest music influences. Im still heartbroken your gone. Just wanted to say thanks for the music. Peace and love to you wherever you are.

phil was fucking awesome!
This is the absolute definitive version of this song, but it's nowhere to be seen aside from a greatest hits album. Needs to be on spotify!
Just an exceptional live band. Completely focused on their playing while keeping the audience riveted. AWESOME!
Phil was an amazing bass player, he's outstanding, not to mention the 2 guitars and his sometimes poetic lyrics. Thin Lizzy rocks.
man...how i love this song! so much feeling and power!
Gary and Phil! Forever!
my gosh i just LOVE them so much. they were one of the best bands in history no doubt. i love how he plays the bass...his stance is like...top this m fer.

May the memory of Phillip Lynott live on in us all.
Happy Birthday Phil. Thanks for the music. Rest in peace!
