Beautiful. A very pleasant surprise to find a variant of Irish trad here, and it's fun to see music pollinating from Ireland to Appalachia and back again like this.
what great editing and romanticized storytelling crafted around folk music in Ireland in this video! I'd be hard pressed not to invite myself to watch if I saw these artist walking by.
Lovely bit, gets me that "hand me over a pint" kinda feeling. Chords and lyrics below folks!

Irish-French here, also amateur banjo player, this songs resonates so much, thank you for your brilliant performance. Can't wait to add this song (and maybe others to come?) to Apple Music.
glad you stopped by! Luke shot this one, our compatriot in Ireland I met when I was there in October last year. He is a legend, and in the same spirit as us!
Dang. Now I need to obtain a low Whistle and uillean pipe set. Beautifully done. We are going to cover this in my folk band now. Our fiddler has a daughter named Jubilee. Such a sweet tender song. It’s Amazing the Appalachia and Irish blending of flavors.
It's a low d whistle, it's a lower version of the traditional tin whistle or penny whistle mentioned below. Finbar furey would be one of the more popular musicians that makes it central to his music. It is easier played than the tin whistle by the way!!
Hey, that was pretty alright. I always wondered what the instrument looked like that is heard on many of my hero, Mark Knopfler's, tunes (like, "Done With Bonaparte"). Well done. moar!

This was such a joy to film, thank you Alfi for letting me record this, and Gems on VHS for sharing it!
Any time!
Such amazing work all around!
Gorgeous stuff
Fantastic!

Saw them sing this in Dundalk on Saturday, National Harp Day in Ireland. Absolutely wonderful.
This is powerful stuff. What this world needs right now is a Jubilee!
Words can't describe how this makes me feel. My relatives came over from Ireland and the folk music stirs my soul
I love this Irish Folk music. Keep it up Gems. It’s a real beautiful melody.
This hits the spot

Wow that was beautiful. I don't know how this channel manages to outdo itself time and time again.
Lovely bit, gets me that "hand me over a pint" kinda feeling. Chords and lyrics below folks!
Capo on 5, Standard tuning
If you want to fancy it up a bit, you can play C / C/B / Am / Am/G C in the verses instead
Verses C / C / C / C
Chorus Am / F C
Interlude C / C / C / C / Am / F C / Am / F C
[Verse 1]
It’s all out on the old railroad
It’s all out on the sea
All out on the old railroad
As far as I can see
[Chorus]
Swing and turn, Jubilee
Live and learn Jubilee
[Verse 2]
The hardest work I ever did
Was working on the farm
Easiest work I ever did
Was swing my true love’s arm
[Chorus]
Swing and turn, Jubilee
Live and learn Jubilee
[Verse 3]
The coffee grows on a white oak tree
And the river runs in brandy
I got a girl, she's mighty fine
As sweet as sugar candy
[Chorus]
Swing and turn, Jubilee
Live and learn Jubilee
[Interlude]
[Verse 4]
Some will come at Saturday night
Some will come on Sunday,
But if you give me half a chance
I'll be back on Monday
[Chorus]
Swing and turn, Jubilee
Live and learn Jubilee
[Verse 5]
Well if I had a needle and thread
As fine as I could sew
I’d sew my true love to my side
And down the road we'd go
[Chorus]
Swing and turn, Jubilee
Live and learn Jubilee
[Verse 6]
Saddle me up the old gray mare
Who shall be their rider?
Ride her down to the old still house
And get a jug of cider
[Chorus]
Swing and turn, Jubilee
Live and learn Jubilee
Swing and turn, Jubilee
Live and learn Jubilee
Swing and turn, Jubilee
Live and learn Jubilee
Swing and turn, Jubilee
Live and learn Jubilee
[Outro]

thanks for taking the time
This is my type of music. This is the only place I find it.
This is among your best. That is saying something. Just perfect. Full circle.
I haven't heard that song in years. Thanks.
Deadly!! Class stuff Alfi. Seamus was the 👑 on the uilleann pipes! Lovely song
Lovely! I never would have thought that harp, banjo, and a set of pipes could sound so nice together!
This is wonderful! Amazing to be able to hear such fine music from across the world.
Gorgeous tune
I'm mesmerized by how great the harp sounds in this song
Commented on IG, but man, I’ve listened to this a few times now. Great capture of some amazing artists. Good job Anthony
Thanks for showing these guys! They've become a new favorite of mine!
First time seeing a 5 string in some irish folk music. Awesome video as always. Thanks again Anthony and GEMS crew.
Ya! I was happy to see it.
glad you stopped by! Luke shot this one, our compatriot in Ireland I met when I was there in October last year. He is a legend, and in the same spirit as us!
So happy it's not far at all to good music this morning.
Good work Anthony!! Love this one

❤ wow! What a wonderful version. Thanks for sharing this to us 🙏
My favorite song to play on banjo, this is such a beautiful rendition!
A gem indeed
Absolutely lovely lads! Well done! 🇮🇪
Definitely a powerful and holistic element. Love this traditional stuff!
me too ayyyy
in love with this
Beautiful song, fantastic location! Sounds & looks great! 🎶❤️🎶😊
So beautiful ❤
wow absolutely beautiful
Magic!!!
awesome. I just discovered Jean Ritchie recently.
Folk Novice here. The flute that the gentleman plays at 1:48 - What exactly is that called?
Should be called a Tin Whistle or Penny Whistle. Hope this helps :)
It's a low d whistle, it's a lower version of the traditional tin whistle or penny whistle mentioned below. Finbar furey would be one of the more popular musicians that makes it central to his music. It is easier played than the tin whistle by the way!!
This is beautiful
very cool.
Hey, that was pretty alright. I always wondered what the instrument looked like that is heard on many of my hero, Mark Knopfler's, tunes (like, "Done With Bonaparte"). Well done. moar!
Amazing
❤
Good thing gems on vhs is doing shorts now, I feel like I miss alot of new good song posts like this one
yeaaah tru tru, you could also subscribe to the channel lol!
@@GemsOnVHSI am they just don't show up in my "recommended" for some reason. RUclips has lots of weird glitches
Nice. Appreciate how Irish americana doesn't appear have the larping costumes many US singers don.
americans love larping
❤❤❤
I know this a a squar dance song... its a nice adaptation of the song
Superbe
What's the name of the first instrument that the guy on the left plays in this video? It's like a giant tin whistle
It’s a low whistle, just a tin whistle in a lower pitch :)
Is that some kind of modern tin whistle he's playing ?
It's called a low whistle. Pretty common in Irish traditional music. Lots of pipers are low-whistle players.
@@LoyaltyOfDogsDotCom thank you !
Amazing
Thank you! Cheers!
