You shall all have an exceptional Christmas Day this year 2023 all together .Sending you all warm wishes and happiness together FOREVER RIP❤❤❤❤❤ ELIZABETH IN❤❤❤❤ SCOTLAND ❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
❤❤❤ I have amazing memories with the pogues, many drunken nights and such good laughs, we love the man who is and always will be a LEGEND,,I'm from the north and proud to have grown up with such great music,,,rest in peace,x❤❤❤
Love this. How blessed we are to have been around when Shane and Sinead were here. Dublin in the twilight listening to this amazing music. Magic stuff.
I think one of the attributes, from a non irish person, is that he made irish music, albeit mixing it with the punk attitude, very popular, and it is no small deal scoring a christmas song maintaining his same spirit...rest easy sir, tq for the beautiful music and lyrics
Rest easy Shane MacGowan amen. Your drive through Dublin brought back great memories both of the city and Shane, thank you. I now live in the Land of Oz Australia. Greetings from the sunshine.
Same here. I now live in Victoria, only 75kms from the South Australian border. Many a drunken days and nights singing and partying to The Pogues. Best days of my life. Thank you 🙏 Shane for the memories 🙏💕🫶💜💛💜💛🐨🐨🦘
Shane is with the likes of WBYeats, James Joyce and Brendan Behan. A kind special soul, despite his addictions...too gentle for this cruel world. R.i. p. Shane .... raise a Guinness and whisky chaser to a true son of Irelsnd. X
Met him in jfk at the bar, bought him a mixed drink. Not sure what it was but i do remember it was $27 back in 1988. Told him i was a singer songwriter,he was chatty as all hell, just a regular tipp man. .. rip auld sod...you turned heads in your life here.
instant like without even watching, I felt like shedding a tear at the campfire the other night when I heard the news. Ireland has lost two great musical people this year and their likes will never be seen nor heard again. Nothing will ever compare to either of them in this durty ol town.
It's been a sad week , but sadness should be overcome with tribute , I hope you light a candle or gather wood today singing that song by him and Sinead . .I've been humming it in my head for two days .
Regards from Toronto...I used to enjoy Dublin during the Yuletide....shopping on Grafton Street and then going to the Bailey for a few jorums and a cup of coffee at Butler's and their free chocolate ! 🇨🇦🍁🇨🇦
He lived a life his way for sure. I remember him and the band from the 80's and of course have always enjoyed, 'Fairy Tale of New York,' which takes me back. Re-the city my brothers explored your town and took his folding buke, cycled out and camped in the mountains. Well, take care RIP Shane. Mark
Rest in peace indeed .. a loss to us all on the emerald Isle. That's mad they went to the hills , no easy task at all . Shane wouldn't want us to be sad. ❤️
@@lifesahobby a very privileged upbringing! Top English public school....certainly wasn't from a council estate the way he wanted to portray himself! A sad loss! RIP
@@lifesahobby Yeah, another one gone Sinead included. Yeah, Paul cycled out of the city into the mountains on a folding bike with a rucksack on his back. No, he'd want us to celebrate life.
My mum was from Drogheda. She always loved Shane from the Pogues. My mum appreciated poetry and literature. Especially Irish. I have been to Dublin many times with my dear mum. Sadly she passed away almost two years ago. I miss her every day. One very clever and very funny beautiful lady. I love so much music like my mum did. Especially Irish music. When I stayed with my auntie and uncle in Drogheda, it was always entertaining. My cousins husband's were very musical. They would start singing after a few pints and one would play a guitar one a mouth organ They knew how to get the evening going lol. I loved going there. Also because the people were just magnificent. Very kind and so friendly. I remember the first time going with my mum I was shocked that a shop keeper was talking to me and asking where I was from. Who was I staying with. Everyone knew each other. I kind of felt guilty for thinking he was being nosy! Then realised actually be was a sweetie and was just being like I said friendly. I began to realise what my mum meant by saying she thought the English were like the weather. Miserable a lot of the time. Very reserved. 😍
Nice video honoring Shane MacGowan. Here in Philadelphia area, one of our football players, Jason Kelce, from the Eagles sung a localized version of the Fairytale of New York to benefit a local children's charity.
@lifesAHobby great job on this. I followed along on Google Maps. Haven't been to Dublin in years but this brings back fond memories. I saw Shane McGowan and Joe Strummer at a Boston nightclub many moons ago. Both were a treasure. Lovely words from your PM. Well-done on the video and thanks for posting! Steve from Boston
Very sad news Owen,great tribute to him,i enjoyed shanes last ride with you.at 12.00 onwards i shed a tear remembering the great times he gave us.RIP Mr Macgowan and thank you Owen..
Hey Garth , sometimes I reply to your comments and they just don't stick right . Hey glad this one gave you some enjoyment . Happy December man . To you and yours
He gave us all that moment on a Christmas Eve with friends and family where we let go of everything , gazed around us and threw out arms around those closest to us , screaming his music like a normal person . His gift was singing like a normal human being .
@@lifesahobby My last trip to Dublin was with friends for auditions for the Vikings tv series down in county Wicklow,the night was spent in a foot stompin bar in the temple bar area.the band played a few of shanes songs,a real memorable night.im so sad in his passing but as you said hed want us to celebrate his life and raise a glass for sure..
@GARTH257 he at first was condemned by some of the Irish music community for making punk versions of Irish music . He was the mad Max of Irish folk songs . But eventually it turned out he key part to Irish music revival .. I miss the Dublin city of the 90s and the naughties . But it still has its charm . I'm hoping to get in there some day soon and do some photographs .. Spent yesterday going through all my photos from 2007 . The thumbnail is one of those photos from temple bar in 2007 . I'm guessing you recall those cobbled streets . . It's a pity Vikings is over , they should make a version of it about the Irish / Celtic vikings .. the ones that built Dubh linn . Thanks for sharing your memory
This is beautiful, Owen. Well done! At about 6 mins 30 secs you drove right by the back of my house in Terenure. If I'd have known you were there I would've had the windows open, blaring Lorca's Novena! 😂👌Happy Christmas bro! 👍
wow!!.. That was such a lovely tribute dude, your freinds brain music was lovely too. I just want to ask why you didn't finish up in St John o Gods car park doing handbrake turns and wheel spins while blaring his tune of the same name in true punk fashion. :) :) I know someone close to Victoria and I will share this with her. You can bet your bottom dollar he would of loved this being up and down those streets umpteen times himself.
It all just happened . Some priest I spoke to said that ye can learn to listen . I think we are always learning to listen . You heard the hand breaks turns , pity you were not a passenger. 😀. I like the idea though. I do think for what it is , it has his words that make it special . .thanks for sharing it.

I'm sorry that im not familiar with Shane McGowan. However, I enjoyed watching your tribute for him, and really liked the music along your drive. ❤ Side note, I liked your disclaimer to the SEO, I might try that as well.
Shane was an Irish musician who partied too much and wrote good songs . A great example of what not to do . But some great songs . Sad . Yeah the SEO stuff is a daily thing . . Hope it helps
@lifesahobby It seems like parties and writing good songs go hand in hand. 65, that is a pretty good run for that scene. As I age, I can say that is young, though. I imagine his music will live on and inspire younger generations, as many in the past have done. 😀
@@nationalparksprincess3216many of us would wonder how he made it through the past 23 years . The songs we learned to love with . . Many a Christmas Eve spent with friends singing . To him , to us , to you Peace
@@scootladychicago I don't know if you have been back here since but do you see how your scooter videos of your lovely city made a bit of love in the world when it needed it most . I hope you feel the energy of the world today , and that you stay safe .

glad you got that buzz of the memory banks.. Is there any place else you like in Dublin. I was going to get the Mrs' to bring me to johnny foxes... so I'm hoping you say ..."Jeasus I'd love to see johnny foxes" Asking for a friend
Nice video. Notice the barriers outside government buildings. This is a sign of how the majority of Irish people are disillusioned with the current government and their policies, which are destroying our beautiful country. They better listen to the people. No barrier will protect them from a rebellion. Just ask the British empire! 😠 😡
Politics ... 1% of the population creating a storm in a tea cup . Turn off the TV and the radio it is how to win . But so many still suckle from the breast of TV .
Hi Owen, I would like to talk to you about SEO optimisation for you videos! They are not performing as well as they could and I could help you with your video performance🤪🤪 Am I hired??? Nice tribute😊 The city looks beautiful in the lights😀😀
lol.. Hey they are just doing a Job. I think i will send one of them money for Christmas . - They deserve it for tenacity I even got one on this one, for professional who does not read the description it is not very professional . Oh Well ,
I think it was but he adapted it for Dublin, I think he may have also took the tune of an olde English folk tune and made it his own. If I can remember them ill come back and comment :) :)
thank you so much for the mention owen! i am truly honored to be even the slightest bit of inspiration as i consider what you do to be art. now to chat along with the video. 😂 love a night trip, so you got me immediately there. throw in some interesting clouds, and water reflecting off 😍 love the soundtrack. big pogues fan here. since college i've considered "metropolis" to be my theme song. and while shane isn't singing in that one, i still mention it. damnit, ya got me crying on fairy tale of ny, arguably my favorite song of theirs, although haunted by the ghost with sinead probably ties it. to throw a non-duet in - if i should fall from grace from gd. AND THEN YOU GO AND DO IT WITH HAUNTED. now i'm just a complete wreck. and will send this comment and finish the drive through bleary eyes. thank you for the this tribute to a talent i will miss. and thanks again for the mention. 🛴❤
yes, i'm replying to myself because i just wanted to say thanks for sharing your city. i really enjoy the differences between our pieces of the world and i wasn't expecting the daytime drive at all! watch out for the bikers! as clearly i thought it was night until you mention the 645am 😁
@scootladychicago the font at the start looks like 1am but it was 7am this morning. I think it's deadly that the night turns into day . I cut off the video cause I got a phone call at 10 30 am leaving . I had an emergency call out for city centre , it's just easier to leave before 7 am . I'm guessing it's the same story in every city . Thank god it's Friday ..
He drank like an Irish person .. This wasn't really supposed to be about anything btw . I was just driving into the city and when someone dies that I respect , I like to pay homage .
I did another video when Sinead o Connor died , I was camping in that video and just danced to one of her songs . By all accounts , Sinead was much of a camper .. ❤ but you know what I mean , respect to England , the English , the people of Kent , London , and all those who remember the man fondly
It’s hard for children with Irish parents. They travelled to England for a better life for their family. The children are confused growing up. Are they English 🌹or Irish ☘️ . As they grew up in an Irish Community in London. My Ex partner grew up in Finsbury Park, North London. Living directly opposite their Catholic Church. The door was left open all day for their Priest, Nuns & friends to visit. This is when I had the pleasure to meet one of the Birmingham Six, he told me, was only went out to meet his daughter after her shift at Tesco’s, when he was arrested🙏My Ex Partner family from Connemara and couldn’t speak English when they arrived 🫶💕🍀🐨🐨🦘
To me it's about any wet cold town . I've had a few messages about it being different towns all the way to Scotland . So it seems universal . Thanks for the insight
It's about Salford where the writer was born, there was even a line in the original song that goes 'Smells a spring on the Salford wind' also references Manchester ship canal and the local gasworks.
@@martinclail9290 thank you for your input . From reading other comments it seems like the song had a universal application to any old town. . and until this week I had no idea of the real history to the song . . 👍
What a beautiful tribute. The bells are ringing out on this sad day.
❤❤ cheers for your kind words

now to chat along with the video. 😂 love a night trip, so you got me immediately there. throw in some interesting clouds, and water reflecting off 😍 love the soundtrack. big pogues fan here. since college i've considered "metropolis" to be my theme song. and while shane isn't singing in that one, i still mention it. damnit, ya got me crying on fairy tale of ny, arguably my favorite song of theirs, although haunted by the ghost with sinead probably ties it. to throw a non-duet in - if i should fall from grace from gd. AND THEN YOU GO AND DO IT WITH HAUNTED. now i'm just a complete wreck. and will send this comment and finish the drive through bleary eyes.
thank you for the this tribute to a talent i will miss. and thanks again for the mention. 🛴❤
Don't be thanking me , you inspired this.
You have done 140 of these right ? I thought of you leaving the house at 6; 45 am
All their work .. the music brings us all to memories .
.. that's the emotional trip . ❤️❤️ Brilliant that it resonated with your songs you love .
yes, i'm replying to myself because i just wanted to say thanks for sharing your city. i really enjoy the differences between our pieces of the world and i wasn't expecting the daytime drive at all! watch out for the bikers! as clearly i thought it was night until you mention the 645am 😁
@scootladychicago the font at the start looks like 1am but it was 7am this morning.
I think it's deadly that the night turns into day .
I cut off the video cause I got a phone call at 10 30 am leaving . I had an emergency call out for city centre , it's just easier to leave before 7 am . I'm guessing it's the same story in every city .
Thank god it's Friday ..
Shane's hometown was London not Dublin he was born and spent 90% of his life in London
He drank like an Irish person ..
This wasn't really supposed to be about anything btw . I was just driving into the city and when someone dies that I respect , I like to pay homage .
I did another video when Sinead o Connor died , I was camping in that video and just danced to one of her songs .
By all accounts , Sinead was much of a camper .. ❤ but you know what I mean , respect to England , the English , the people of Kent , London , and all those who remember the man fondly
His parents are Irish. He was born in Tipperary, then the family went to live in London when Shane was seven.

It’s hard for children with Irish parents. They travelled to England for a better life for their family. The children are confused growing up. Are they English 🌹or Irish ☘️ . As they grew up in an Irish Community in London. My Ex partner grew up in Finsbury Park, North London. Living directly opposite their Catholic Church. The door was left open all day for their Priest, Nuns & friends to visit. This is when I had the pleasure to meet one of the Birmingham Six, he told me, was only went out to meet his daughter after her shift at Tesco’s, when he was arrested🙏My Ex Partner family from Connemara and couldn’t speak English when they arrived 🫶💕🍀🐨🐨🦘
Not an Irish song. It's about Sheffield!😢 R.I.P. 0:51
To me it's about any wet cold town .
I've had a few messages about it being different towns all the way to Scotland . So it seems universal .
Thanks for the insight
It's about Salford where the writer was born, there was even a line in the original song that goes 'Smells a spring on the Salford wind' also references Manchester ship canal and the local gasworks.
@@martinclail9290 thank you for your input .
From reading other comments it seems like the song had a universal application to any old town. . and until this week I had no idea of the real history to the song . .
👍
You forgot to cross the river.
Maybe that's a job for someone else 😀.. thanks for your comment
