Have to come back to this in times of uncertainty
almost 10 years old, still a gem and still very very relevant .... brilliant!
I’m just saying, we’re 6 years on and it’s just as relevant now as it was then.
That moment where he stops, the music kicks in, and he says "No. You'se all fucked off." is just gut-wrenching.
I felt that. It speaks for itself chasing friends that are all for themselves. Following the crowd. Bellowing thoughts that scream out loud. Now alone and looking around. Where am I now.
Still completely relevant... gorgeously written and well acted. So maith sibh.
ITS EVERY YOUNG DUBLIN PERSON'S POEM IN THIS GENERATION

"any craic?"
"no yous all fucked off"
Everything about this is perfect, the writing,the performance, the city streets, the background music, the atmosphere. Perfection.
I'm just saying that after living here for over 2 years I am now able to understand everything he is saying! lol
"The answers aren't on Camden street, and they never were" Makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up.
Everybody knows the answers are on Aungier St! Always were. A for answers,A for Aungier, A for are and A for always. A'roight?
I've been living in the UK for the past few years. I come back to this video every now and again to take me back to Dublin. Reminds me where I'm from.
Same as dude
same from Paris
Same from Sydney! Just had a big night and my head is banging and I thought I'd whip out the 'Just Saying' craic again! :D All in all, it's well done and strikes a chord each time. Love it.
Same!
Getting sentimental
I'm not even from Dublin, but I get choked up every time I hear this - makes me love the place, the country, even more, and glad to be home again. You've more soul in your little finger, Dave, than most poets...
This is Emmet Kirwan
@@BM-yr1lc its written by dave tynan
Was living in London when I saw this pop up on my newsfeed. Played a big part in me coming home.
Are you happy u came back?
Just Saying, after 7 Years in Dublin ( I am German !)
I luv this city and appreciate the opportunity to have made this city my new home !
Thank you Dublin, Thank you Ireland !
"Any craic?"
"No. Yous all fucked off."
:-(
This.
I left for the UK in 1987. Watching this fills me with happy and sad memories of Dublin before I left. I now live in London and sometimes wonder how life would've panned out for me had stayed. Eight of us left, two went back.
"Magnificent Bastards in the Lost City of Dutch Gold" hahaha
This'll be my first Xmas in Dublin, around a table with my family, in 6 years. Watching this last year, I cried. This year, I'm bawling! Fcuking love Dublin to death!
Hope you've a ball at home.
Oh fuck off it's a kip
@@JG-es5dj bet ur from roscommon
"Saw this long whole back.
Found it again.
Living now in the US and being from Ireland this struck a chord even more than when I first experienced it.
A prolific piece beautifully orchestrated and acted.
The back drop of Dublin in the early hours is so powerful.
I'm proud of Ireland proud to be Irish and ashamed of the government.
It's people are wonderful and this is proof that the art is still there.
Thank you Dave for a stunning reflection on Eire as it is now"
Perfect! A voice of our generation!!! A question I debate with myself. With 10 good reasons to go and a thousand little reasons to stay!!! Perfect!!!
Think I'd moved from Ireland 1 year after this was made and I remember watching it in Spain feeling a million miles away, I've been back to visit but I'm still abroad and not in Spain anymore and I don't think I'll ever move back, I don't have a home but I'm good with it. I seen too many of my friends leave before I did so the place wasn't the same.
Left Dublin and live a far better life in the sun in Sydney. Don't miss that rainy kip
This still gives me shivers every time I listen to it. 🌟
It captures the feelings I had when I left Dublin 30 odd years ago .... Nice work.
9 years on and I still love this video.
I have been living in Ireland for all but three months but it still brings me to tears when I see a raindrop in Ireland - classic Dublin 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
So much truth spoken with honesty.
Absolutely epic portrayal of a young person left in Ireland at the moment....... little here for them but still cant leave.
I left Ireland in 2001 for a year and again in 2004 and haven't been back to live. Get back a few times a year on holidays though. My work has brought me to over 40 countries and i have lived and met some amazing people.
Now every time i go home i don't want to have to leave. despite everything that is wrong at home Ireland is still one of the very best countries in the whole world. And never let anyone tell you any otherwise.
Been years since we were since we were showed this in school and its still one of the best pieces of writing out there
"Any craic?"
"No, youse fucked off"
That line cuts right into you
Love it. I left Belfast 25 years ago, landed in America. The kid had a few great lines in there, very good stuff.
I've lived in london for 8 years, now Australia for 17yrs, I've lived outa Ireland for longer than I've lived there. I will always be Irish and Ireland will always be home, even though I now have 2. This clip is class, so on the money and so well put together, but I reckon only the Irish will get it. I think it's because we are like one, we are unique.
Irelands greatest export will always be her youth. Fair play, once again Emmet has nailed it beautifully!
Been out of Ireland 35 years and miss the damm place, I,m a bogman from the whest coast but love Dublin. I've learnt other languages and travelled and met amazing people . The republic is almost a failed project with a low quality political class, get out if you can and open your eyes. It's tough but waiting for change is tougher. By leaving you create change and above all you can see what Ireland could have become had not the gombeen class kidnapped it.
This always struck a chord with me. watching my pals leave these shores to far flung places like my ancestors in search of a better life. They may indeed find it. There are 70 million people on this planet who identify as irish. There is 5 million who inhabit this small island still. We are a nation of famine refugees... war refugees... AND economic refugees. I am thankful that the world now embraces us as the beautiful, inteligent and dynamic people we are. I wish it wasn't the case, but still every few months I attend a "going away party" of a friend I love and may never see again in the flesh. The southern hemisphere calls with oportinity on banana farms a plenty. things are getting better here. But are they ever gonna be so good that we can trust our elected officials to do what's best for our citizens. I'm stuck here now till I can manufacture an oportinity to get my daughter out of this corrupt hell hole. I want her to grow up in a place where her 1 single vote actually counts and we're not governed by a disgusting corrupt regime that the irish people have been stuck with the last 5 years. Our people deserve more. better. We want our people home. We need to stop sending our best and brightest to other countries. We need them here. With our educated workforce we could build a super economy... providing we have the correct leader ship. anyway onto my major point. We irish are a travelling people. We are educated and skilled. We also needed help over the past 150 years. We need to help these refugees from that war torn area of Syria and Iraq. an irish person who cannot identify with the plight of these people needs to seriously look at our history and see what we have accomplished when WE were given a chance. within 100 years of the great famine (an gorta mor) we had an irish man in the white house...
What...
Old OddJobs you are very naive
Back here 7 years after leaving the first time. Faced with same decision again.
When I first watched this I was in London this video was one of the reasons I decided to return home. 9 years later I'm back in the North West of England. Ireland has failed us.
Still love this!
Very few things have touched my heart like this before
Left Ireland in '97 to travel. Had an opportunity to move back beginning of 2010 but the warning signs were there. Living in Canada for 7 years now. The amount of Irish here compared to when I first came is astonishing. Love being Irish but I've always felt more Irish abroad than at home.
i think this captured how every 20 to 30 yr old is feeling
in this country it screams your not alone.
Gets me every time. "London and Sydney swallow up your mates" and they have. great poem an Emmett does it justice. thanks
Dublin is a different but still a brilliant place. This video captures it all.
When I was about to graduate last year, we all started to ask each other 'where are you going?', not 'are you going?', it seemed like there were very little options. A lot of us have stayed.
And the craic is still mighty most of the time.
you speak what all young people think but we forget... your a genius ,man
All homes are like that; they tug at our souls with memories that make us repelled as much as in love. We want to be there as quick as leave and never return. You have said this well...and I am of English ancestry now over 350 years in America.
I left twenty-four years ago to Canada, came back four years ago, now I'm more homesick for Toronto than I was for Dublin. The Dublin we left is no longer, streets and attitudes have changed. Emmet is right,10 reasons to go, too many little excuses to stay. To anyone considering returning, don't waste your time, what you left is history, stay where you are, it can't be as bad as here. To anyone considering leaving, go for it! Great film, well done, deserves an Oscar.
How are you getting on now? Did you go back to Canada? Your right in what you say.. I left Dublin 10 years ago...I go back every couple of years to see friends and family... but only for a few days and I'm gone again...
Know the feeling. Great job Emmet and all involved. Really touching.
Either way, he's a character. And he's a good character because he's complex -- he doesn't have to be likeable. Resentment or being bitter is a part of life for some people, and it's perfectly valid to make a short movie about it.
I see your point. I'm a home bird myself and can't ever imagine leaving Ireland for good, for all it's flaws I still love it. Just because there's tough times I can't bring myself to leave. Love the country too much. We've left this country in droves over the last couple of centuries, possibly even further back, but we have to try and fix things eventually, they don't fix themselves.
We have the potential to be great, we just don't seem to believe in ourselves and constantly seek validation.
Get shivers down the spine listening to this having lived abroad myself, been there and tried it out. Such a moving video
This is absolutely beautiful in all respects. Videography, spoken word, all of it. I've got a weight in my heart after listening 3 times, in a god way and a melancholic way at the same time. It's heartbreaking to think of everyone who has had to leave this place I adore. Even I myself am one foot in and out, at this point here only for the love of the place and people. Ah!
Brings it home, everyone can relate to this clip somehow
I have just moved home to Dublin again after three years in the UK. This film had me in tears, not because it made me feel better for moving home, but because it managed to capture every mixed emotion I'm going through in a few short minutes. Thanks to the makers.
Best Irish short film I've seen in I don't know how long. Awesome.
Haunting indictment on immigration and those left behind. I left Ireland 20 years ago - this strikes a cord. Bravo Mr. Tynan, excellent piece.
2 months later and I'm still watching this almost daily. It gives me goosebumps every time.
fantastic. the million tiny reasons are the reasons ill be coming home. Great vid!
Captures the sentiment and the mood of the youth. It's reminiscent of the famine era, there was a brain drain
I always find myself coming back to this. Amazing.
I've left dublin, il prob never go back but if I had to re-live my life id coose dublin, but I'd make a 1000 different choices.
ST Patrick's Day 2023 watching this as everyone I know lives abroad now including myself and realizing how relevant this still is
I forgot how good this was
Philip McGrath
For someone who has been through the whole process of immigrating abroad on a few occasions and is now back living in Ireland, This is a very moving piece, sums it all up ,
One of the best videos on this anyone that knows somebody that traveled the world will understand
This is quality! As someone who left Dublin for a long time and has now been home for over 3 years i find myself thinking at times "Yeah this city is a bit shit, and yeah maybe some parts of it are a dump" but so what its our city and at the end of the day i love it!
I love every beat of this.
Powerful...mskes me homesick for Dublin ,im 25 yrs gone but still it was the same in my day..we had to fuck off as he says , there was nothing for us in working class Dublin but drugs.. still miss the unique craic to be had though, just in the boozer with ur mates, theres nothing like Dublin humour. Loved this .
Think it's beautiful and simple and genius all at the same time.
Brilliantly captures the complexity of staying in or leaving Ireland. Class video. Respect.
Powerful. Love it.
This is a superb piece of work! Love Dublin
After living abroad for a long time i can say the grass is not always greener on the other side. We may complain about the weather, people, traffic, government but at the end of the day we wouldn't trade it for anything.
Greatness. Poetry. Makes me miss Dublin, feeling a bit guilty about leaving. I love those streets.
This is beautiful. Really, really beautiful. I don't want to have to leave Ireland after I finish college but so far things are looking this way. I'll miss it, and I know we say that we can always come home. It won't be home anymore. I've lost at least ten of my mates to emigration and they aren't coming back. They've moved on and got new lives.
I was shown this in transition year.. almost nine years later I still listen a couple of times a year. I’m not sure if there’s anything that quite captures the minutia of what it means to be Irish, the good and bad. Amazing
Never get tired of this.
Congratulations everyone involved in the making of this piece of Art. Brilliant job everyone. Get ready for the awards to come flooding in.
Superb and as a guy who left a few years ago he gets the feelings of those gone, left and most importantly the ones thinking of leaving.
Can't stop watching this, it's so good!
i like this,i moved away 11 years ago,and miss dublin.but i got a boy here in the states and wherever he goes i go.iv been back a handful of times,parents passing and so on,but dublin has not changed for me,its a mish mash of brilliant bullshit,and please god il die there.im very very proud to be irish,theres no one like us on the planet,and the humour is second to none.
Anything with Emmet Kirwan is worth watching. This ... is poetry.
2024 lads. Still love this.
How has this escaped my attention until now? Powerful stuff; great script, great acting, great production!
Love, love this.
Brilliant, absolutely brilliant.
Super actor. Well done. Video makes me proud and sad at the same time. Really well done to all involved.
Keep watching this, almost every week
beautiful.
Absolutely beautiful.
Pure art
watched this a few times, the sound track is top,..great atmospheric music
I love this video... Speaks for itself really.
Fantastic.
Fabulous.
I'm this generation and 10yrs ago it hit a cord and it still does now. If anything sums up the global recession let it be this poem
I can't stop watching this.
Brilliant!!!
I love this piece. Gets me every time I watch it
A very poignant expression of life in your 20's. Beautifully written and shot. Emigrated in 1977 to America with my family when I was 7. Back since 1999, raising my own family.Totally understand Dave's film. Keep it up!
The look he gives the camera after: "Youse all missed out...." Followed by "and we all have the same photos to prove it." Excellent piece.
