    n 1962 I dated an Irish lad and we used to go to the Barley Mow in Bedford and the juke box was all irish songs and this was my favourite and still is 62 years later.

    And even now- long after this was recorded, there are STILL people who don't know that he wrote it! It just sounds so quintessentially Irish- perhaps his biggest song writing achievement, among many phenomenally good songs.

    666th veiwer. That sucks but this song is great. As an Irishman, I usually find American songs about Ireland to be sentimental and hokey. This is different. Johnny's voice gives such a sincerity to the song that I have to love it. God bless you Johnny. Enjoy the River Jordan.

    YES JOHNNY, YOU ABSOLUTELY DID QUICKLY WRITE THIS BEAUTIFUL “INSTANT CLASSIC IRISH BALLAD” ON AN AIRPLANE, JUST MINUTES AFTER YOUR DEPARTURE FROM A 1959 VISIT TO IRELAND.
    THE LYRICS THAT FOLLOW ARE THE ONLY LETTER PERFECT VERSION OF THEM TO BE FOUND ANYWHERE ON THE INTERNET. [INCLUDING THE CORRECT NAMES & SPELLING OF ALL IRISH ☘️ REFERENCES.]
    Forty Shades of Green
    Performed by Johnny Cash and friends
    I close my eyes and picture the emerald of the sea
    From the fishing boats at Dingle to the shores of Donaghadee
    I miss the River Shannon and the folks at Skibbereen
    The moorlands and the meadows with their forty shades of green
    But most of all I miss a girl in Tipperary town
    And most of all I miss her lips as soft as eider down
    Again I want to see and do the things we've done and seen
    Where the breeze is sweet as Shalimar and there's forty shades of green
    I wish that I could spend an hour at Dublin's churning surf
    How I long to watch the farmers drain the bogs and spade the turf
    To see again the thatching of the straw the women glean
    I would walk from Cork to Larne to see the forty shades of green
    But most of all I miss a girl in Tipperary town
    And most of all I miss her lips as soft as eider down
    Again I want to see and do the things we've done and seen
    Where the breeze is sweet as Shalimar and there's forty shades of green
    SONGWRITER: John R. Cash ©1959
    [Released April, 1961 by Columbia Records as B-side of "The Rebel-Johnny Yuma."]

      I’ve been a hardcore fan of Johnny Cash fan most of my life. I’m now nearly 70. The first Johnny Cash song I can remember was the theme song to the television western “The Rebel” (This was the B-side on that single.) He was a great singer and songwriter. This was my favorite song he wrote. Rosanne performed a stunning live version of it in Ireland after he died. He would have been so proud of her and honored: ruclips.net/video/T-kXrEisqb4/видео.html 🧨

I miss the River Shannon and the folks at Skipparee; The moor lands and the meadows, With their forty shades of green. But most of all I miss a girl in Tipperary town, And most of all I miss her lips as soft as eiderdown. Again I want to see and do the things we've done and seen, Where the breeze is sweet as Shalimar, And there's forty shades of green. I wish that I could spend an hour at Dublin's churning surf; I'd love to watch the farmers drain the bogs and spade the turf. To see again the thatching of the straw the women glean; I'd walk from Cork to Lairn to see their forty shades of green. But most of all I miss a girl in Tipperary town, And most of all I miss her lips as soft as eiderdown. Again I want to see and do the things we've done and seen, Where the breeze is sweet as Shalimar, And there's forty shades of green.

    Great song. For all you Americans that come to Ireland. When you land, don't spend too long in Dublin. Don't get me wrong, Dublin is a great little city but its gone very cosmopolitan. You'll see the real old type Ireland in Cork, Kerry, Clare, Galway, Donegal. Its a gem of a Country. And the service you get is real. Not based on tips.

    One of his few songs that are *NOT* improved by background / backup singers... It was going great while he was singing solo... but then someone (June?) started singing in a different key.
    *The mix is horrible!*

    • @D3xTRb0y
      @D3xTRb0y 4 года назад +3

      Everybody is singing in key perfectly, it’s called harmonising, but those singing in harmony in the back are just too loud that’s why it’s sounds off to you. Every song has harmony like that but it’s hard to balance the volume when it’s live

    • @kazzee100
      @kazzee100 3 года назад +1

      It wasn't June. It was an Irish singer, a lady by the name of Sandy Kelly who sang with him. They were good friends but I have to agree with you. I thought the exact same. Even though she is an excellent singer on her own... it was extremely better before she started singing because it was a little too loud above his voice.
