    I‘m from Magdeburg, East Germany. This weekend is the annual medieval Kaiser-Otto-Festival. An irish band was playing. I wished to play „whiskey in the jarre“ and so they did. After, in a break the singe from Dublin brought me a bottle of Connemara. And now I‘m sitting on my roofterrace and love my drink. Thanks Ireland.

      Uisce beatha is the Gaelic name for whiskey.
      Literally translates.
      “ the water of life”

    First time I ever heard this song was in a local South Boston Pub my Dad and GrandPa drank in about 65 years ago!!! Still LOVE it. We moved to Cape Cod the next year and the next time I was in that Pub was when my Brother and I came back from Vietnam. When we walked in, the Barkeep said “You are Billy Sullivan’s boys, aren’t ya?” We never got to buy a drink!!!!!!

    60-year-old African-American thin Lizzy fan here. Because I’m familiar with the 1970s version of the song I can understand how it means so much more to the Irish people than it does to anyone else. I really like this version because it’s not amateur.

    The idea of music even when it is an interpretation of a classic is the freedom of the music itself. Music is self expression. The Killdares did an excellent rendition. And the introduction was unique and I personally enjoyed it. If you didn't like it no need to ridicule. Just move on. Channel you inner hate in a more positive direction than commenting here. Improve an aspect of your life as opposed to attempting to tear down another's. You might find yourself to be happier every morning.

    oh my gosh...this song brings back memories...We used to hear it played by Off-Kilter at Disney World Epcot. When my grandma (who was SUPER proud to be Irish, btw) and my mama would go to Disney with us, they didn't ride the rides and couldn't take walking around in the heat, so they would either shop or sit in shady areas. At Epcot, they would watch Off-Kilter's shows back to back. This was one song I remember loving when I would stop riding a while and go to a show with them. My Gwam didn't make it to our 2015 trip and passed away about a month later. Haven't heard this song since at least 2011, the last trip Gwam came on. Was not expecting to cry today, but I guess I needed it.

    That intro. Never heard a violin played quite like that. Incredible. Eerie. Actually gave me chills. I want an hour of just that. Don’t get me wrong, I liked the rest of the song too. But I want that intro violin on a continuous loop. Think I’ll subscribe to this. Oh, and that smile while she’s playing. 😊

    How many glorious nights at the Tipperary Inn and various musical festivals have Tim and this Brilliant Band entertained me? Too many to count, thanks so much for the memories!
