Beautiful Song... My Brother Stephen Lacken died 10th May 2018 .Aged 46 years Young..Late of Tallaght. Buried on 15th May. Rest in Peace..My friend and Eldest brother.Loved by all who knew him. RIP Stephen ✝
I usually just listen tp Cajun music, most other music these days is pure trash, but the amazing Fureys and some other Irish bands, I listen to for many hours and find so unbelievably strong and moving. These sounds will still be listened to and appreciated, when so called superstars are long forgotten!
Brings back wonderful childhood memories, a lovely family, spent many days sitting in their mothers kitchen drinking tea listening to their beautiful music..
Absolutely love Finbar and the Fureys. Used to go see them in The Wexford Inn years ago. Great memories. Love this song especially as it brings back so many memories. ❤❤
Followed Furys progress for lots of years always watched them with tears a plenty. Beautiful lyrics beautifully sung. Now I'm too old to die young but these musicians are always brand new. Beautiful.. les frary
cblemcallister is correct. Eric Bogle came from near Peebles in the Scottish Borders and emigrated to Australia when in his mid 20s. The song is about him leaving his mother behind. When he got to Australia his songwriting developed and he also wrote "And The Band Played Waltzin Matilda" as well as "No Man's Land". Irish performers often incorrectly call the latter song "Green Fields Of France" or "Willie Mcbride"
Written by Eric Bogle - the actual story to the song would bring a tear to a glass eye. He wrote it about his own mother when she saw him off to the railway station when he was emigrating to Australia
Eeic bogle wrote this about his mother Nancy, its about his fairwell on the station platform when he emmigrated to Australia, he wrote another song called since Nancy died which is also heartbreakingly beautiful .... heres to Erics mother Nancy may she RIP. Almighty love.
Beautiful song. I grew up listening to the fureys on the old records lps that my daddy godrest him use to play. I have so many memories listening to these songs and can just hear my daddy singing them. I learned many of these songs by ear and played thm on tinwhistle as a kid. Finbar furey best band ever. Have tears in my eyes listening to these songs to this day. Miss my daddy so much. Tim. Rip. Xxxx
Miss my Dublin town ! Unfortunately I can never come home to see the city I love so much ! I’d love to bring my little daughter to see where her daddy came from ! She’s a proud little DUBLIN AMERICAN GIRL!
Never say never James. It took me 33 years, but I walked down O'Connell Street with my daughter and stood on the Ha'penny bridge, telling her of my Dublin in the rare auld times 🇮🇪💚🍀
If you’ve ever stood with one you loved waiting and dreading the coming time to get to goodbye. This perfect description will bring the tears in spite of anything you can do. Fury’s accent perfect music and even better writing perfectly done !
Never left a Nancy but I have left some knowing that I would never see them again. This song captures all the feelings. And as they say, you are not fooling each other one little bit.
It's a big statement to make, but I think this, on balance, is my favourite song of all time. Written by a man that also wrote works of more historical significance and relevance, it simply pulls on every heart string when you know the story behind it.
Heavens, what a singer. I presume it is Finbar. This song and this most sensitive of singers sums up the whole trauma and suffering experienced by all who lost loved ones to emigration in the past and even NOW.
Incredible song, Irish, Scottish do you really care ?? it's beautiful, reminds me of leaving my grandda's house in ballyfermot for clondalkin and the furey's being the tape in the car !! only about 7 and still remember it's beauty...love it, and my only sister in NY
There's nothing wrong though with knowing the true origin of a song though. The song was written by Eric Bogle and is about leaving his mother behind as he emigrated from Scotland to Australia.
It was written by Eric Bogle, so strictly it's either Scottish or Australian, depends on whether you want to consider his birthplace or his current nationality.
this song is'nt about tinkers/travellers OR any other nomadic people..........Eric wrote this song about leaving his beloved SCOTLAND And how he leaving his MOTHER. standing on the railway platformto emigrate oo Australia
Davey Arthur and his late wife Donna were neighbours of my mother in Knockaderry and they realeased this song the week after my mother died (her name.... Nancy) Donna rang me in England to tell me what they had done. A great tribute to my Mum Nancy FitzGerald
Every time I here that song it brings good memories of my granny mc cabe and William Moran and and the best woman in the house Julia sorry if spelling mistake xx Ee
@@gringoheineken3851 no why would you even ask that silly drinking question? you said no words and you said words were you drinking at the time you posted your silly comment?
In comes the train and the whole platform shakes It stops with a shudder and a screaming of brakes The parting has come and my weary soul aches I'm leaving my Nancy, oh But you stand there so calmly determinedly gay You talk of the weather and events of the day And your eyes tell me all that your tongue doesn't say Goodbye my Nancy, oh And come a little closer Put your head upon my shoulder And let me hold you one last time Before the whistle blows My suitcase is lifted and stowed on the train And a thousand regrets whirl around in my brain The ache in my heart is a black sea of pain I'm leaving my Nancy, oh But you stand there beside me so lovely to see The grip of your hand is an unspoken plea You're not fooling yourself and you're not fooling me Goodbye my Nancy, oh And come a little closer Put your head upon my shoulder And let me hold you one last time Before the whistle blows But our time has run out and the whistle has blown Here I must leave you standing alone We had so little time and now the time's gone Goodbye my Nancy, oh And as the train starts gently to roll And as I lean out to wave and to call I see the first tears trickle and fall Goodbye my Nancy, oh And come a little closer Put your head upon my shoulder And let me hold you one last time Before the whistle blows And let me hold you one last time Before the whistle blows These lyrics may or may not be copyrighted!

WORDS OF THAT SONG .ARE JUST AWSOME . FANTASTIC.
I could listen to this guy over and over again brilliant
But your eyes tell me all what your tongue doesn’t say. Whoever wrote that line, take a bow sir/mam!
Eric Bogle Wrote those Lyrics for his Mother Nancy when He Emigrated From Scotland to Australia.
ruclips.net/video/2MpBad7nMAE/видео.html Here Eric is singing it on his farewell tour in 2009, for me it's the best version of the song I've found.
@@fredrickb8063 signe svendsen 's version is the best

Eric Bogle. What a song writer!A poet. Love all his songs
Eric Wrote This Classic For His Mother, Such A Sad Song😢😢😢

I'm sure you've heard Luke Kelly?
The pride of Irish travellers, and the Irish people.
@@eileenhavern77 Luke jelly is not in the same league try listening to pecker dunne who is absolutely brilliant but also not in the same league

100% mo Chara 👌
one of the saddest songs i've ever heard... brings a tear to my eye every time
absolutely agree
It would bring a tear to a glass eye
Brings back wonderful childhood memories, a lovely family, spent many days sitting in their mothers kitchen drinking tea listening to their beautiful music..
I'm from Ballyfermot x
once i saw the Fureys live in Waterville, county Kerry Ireland, they were great!
thanks for this wonderful Irish music from a Dutch Irish musicfan
Scottish. Written by a Scot for his mother when he left Scotland.
Absolutely love Finbar and the Fureys. Used to go see them in The Wexford Inn years ago. Great memories. Love this song especially as it brings back so many memories. ❤❤
Me too x
Would see yourself in the mirror
Followed Furys progress for lots of years always watched them with tears a plenty. Beautiful lyrics beautifully sung. Now I'm too old to die young but these musicians are always brand new. Beautiful.. les frary

both titles are familiar never heard it called "no mans land" you learn something new everyday cheers.
This song takes you back further than you would like. so sad but true.
Absolutely fantastic
Simply the saddest most beautiful song Iv'e ever heard
+joe byrne leighlinbridge no its second number 1 is [ the unquite grave ] sang by who else, luke

Welcome to adulthood great music and stories
The ache in my heart is a black sea of pain. Anyone who has lost someone knows this line.
Eeic bogle wrote this about his mother Nancy, its about his fairwell on the station platform when he emmigrated to Australia, he wrote another song called since Nancy died which is also heartbreakingly beautiful .... heres to Erics mother Nancy may she RIP.
Almighty love.
Finbar fury nobody will beat his voice, he's just brilliant...
I'm sure it's his brother Eddie singin' this version
George Furey, I belive sings it, always has been him, very similar to Finbars voice here
Arguably the best band to come out of Ireland.
@@patsavage1245 Mate this is Finbar 100% honestly check out the live version of them playing in Holland, Belgium its defo him. Beautiful song
Davey Arthur 😊
Beautiful song. I grew up listening to the fureys on the old records lps that my daddy godrest him use to play. I have so many memories listening to these songs and can just hear my daddy singing them. I learned many of these songs by ear and played thm on tinwhistle as a kid. Finbar furey best band ever.

Scottish-born Australian folk singer-songwriter Eric Bogle wrote it, credit where credit’s due 😊
FANTASTIC FUREYS!!! Every song is wonderful!!! xxxx
Hi cheerydavie
It's also a great reminder of my auntie nancy waterford station where i met her and left her year after year.
sad but beautiful.
A farewell song from Eric waved goodbye to Nancy (his mother) as he began his emigration to Australia
Finbar at his very best, wonderful x
Never left a Nancy but I have left some knowing that I would never see them again. This song captures all the feelings. And as they say, you are not fooling each other one little bit.
Hello From Cape Breton Island Beautiful Song Singer
Amazing ever thank you Furey`s
A very artistic rendering of a marvellous song by the very talented vocalist, and forever great MUSICIAN, Finbar Furey
That is finbar at his finest 👌
It's a big statement to make, but I think this, on balance, is my favourite song of all time. Written by a man that also wrote works of more historical significance and relevance, it simply pulls on every heart string when you know the story behind it.
Sadest song any parent will ever know
So sad, so beautiful!
,
its a pure beauty .
A heartbreaking anthem of beauty and sorrow.
finbar is truly brilliant.I love his voice and delivery.and an added talent the uillean pipes.
It's Eddie
Heavens, what a singer. I presume it is Finbar. This song and this most sensitive of singers sums up the whole trauma and suffering experienced by all who lost loved ones to emigration in the past and even NOW.
Think it's his brother, trust me
My suitcase is lifted and stowed on the train is the final loss of control and surrender to the parting. It's the line I like the most I think.
Lovely song, thanks for sharing.
amazing..he hits it bang on..xx
beautiful voice
The music, the phrasing, the words…❤❤❤❤❤
Incredible song, Irish, Scottish do you really care ?? it's beautiful, reminds me of leaving my grandda's house in ballyfermot for clondalkin and the furey's being the tape in the car !! only about 7 and still remember it's beauty...love it, and my only sister in NY

Very True, Let Me Hold You One More Time Because His Mother Is An Old Lady And He Doesn't Know If He Will Ever See Her Again 😢
irish
It was written by Eric Bogle, so strictly it's either Scottish or Australian, depends on whether you want to consider his birthplace or his current nationality.
It takes an Irish man to do it justice
I am open to correction but I thought this was about a Scottish lad saying bye to his Mam who was on the train. Voice. Song. Outstanding
this is a lovely song
lovely song i grew up listening to the fureys reminds me of my nan
Love the Fureys
Brilliant song best ballad ever ritten thank I Eric

The legend that is finbar furey
Don't think its Finbar singing
@@patsavage1245 Its Eddie
Sorry.Eddie Who?
@Michael Townsend. Finbar's brother Eddie. He sounds so much like his sibling. I thought it was Finbar singing myself.
@@patsavage1245 yes, it's a pretty young Finbar. He has a pretty thick Dub, and a slight lisp, if ya listen
This is a song I grew up to ,I am upset coz I'm from Cork but in uk and it reminds me of leaving home x
Love you ❤️
Thinking of my lil boy Tiérnan 💙
Black see of pain.
Davey Arthur and his late wife Donna were neighbours of my mother in Knockaderry and they realeased this song the week after my mother died (her name.... Nancy) Donna rang me in England to tell me what they had done. A great tribute to my Mum Nancy FitzGerald

Class song

@@Malmes999 are you drinking? i am praising the song i even posted the lyrics

Love it
In comes the train and the whole platform shakes
It stops with a shudder and a screaming of brakes
The parting has come and my weary soul aches
I'm leaving my Nancy, oh
But you stand there so calmly determinedly gay
You talk of the weather and events of the day
And your eyes tell me all that your tongue doesn't say
Goodbye my Nancy, oh
And come a little closer
Put your head upon my shoulder
And let me hold you one last time
Before the whistle blows
My suitcase is lifted and stowed on the train
And a thousand regrets whirl around in my brain
The ache in my heart is a black sea of pain
I'm leaving my Nancy, oh
But you stand there beside me so lovely to see
The grip of your hand is an unspoken plea
You're not fooling yourself and you're not fooling me
Goodbye my Nancy, oh
And come a little closer
Put your head upon my shoulder
And let me hold you one last time
Before the whistle blows
But our time has run out and the whistle has blown
Here I must leave you standing alone
We had so little time and now the time's gone
Goodbye my Nancy, oh
And as the train starts gently to roll
And as I lean out to wave and to call
I see the first tears trickle and fall
Goodbye my Nancy, oh
And come a little closer
Put your head upon my shoulder
And let me hold you one last time
Before the whistle blows
And let me hold you one last time
Before the whistle blows

Memories of a million years ago (it feels like) at the Auld Shebeen in Moate watching them live.
I Love this song!!!!!

Travellers should be able to listen to the fureys if the wish...
Nice one .
