    When my father was in his final hours after a hard 8 month battle with Lung cancer (he was a Volunteer and republican prisoner and blanketman), I played this song and I never heard it beforehand, only played by yourself. I never cried that day until I heard it, the lyrics and your voice and this song mean so much to me now he passed away in October just a week after both our birthdays, thank you Dan for this cover❤️

Whenever i hear one of your songs, it makes me feel a little better. I tell that cause our beloved daughter died in a tragic accident 2 years ago. She was just 18 years old and it will hurt all my live. I just want to thank you sharing your wonderful musik with us.

I’m sure my wife put our young uns to bed telling them about me, and answering the hardest questions of “where’s Da?” And “when’s Da coming home?”
    Luke, wrote and sang songs with so much passion; Dan, you have that passion a passion only a son of Ireland has when singing soulful tunes. Please, please get an album together and get on iTunes so we don’t have log in into RUclips.

    One of my favourite songs for different reasons but this is by far the best cover I've heard. Not goin to compare you to Luke Kelly because nobody should be but my god you could be every bit as good. well done Dan and keep it goin. The ballad of Ray mcCreesh would be unreal to hear from you. 👍
