This guy is soooo talented. Few vocalist play a guitar with the skill of Jonny Lang. Mysteriously this song grabbed me like few songs ever have. I am 65 years old and like many genres of music but this version of this song by Jonny may well be my favorite song of all time. I too wish he would record it just so I could support him and buy it.
Jonny Lang, I love you as an aspiring musician, you, yourself are an angel. I have listened to your music since I first saw you on a Talk Show when you were a kid.You are a work in progress.Here's to you........LOL Nancy
First time I ever heard this song was at Station Square in Pittsburgh, also the first time I ever cried in a concert. Thank You Jonny for what you do and doing it with all your might!
The greatest song writers and singers write and sing the way they do because their is a realness to the song. Most people don't really listen to the words of a song. If you actually take a moment and LISTEN, you will find a story. Music is an amazing gift!
Jonny Lang is the most talented artist there has ever been in my opinion. Nothing makes my soul feel as touched as when I hear his music. I thank God for Jonny Lang' s music.
All right, all right...slow your roll here. Jonny is definitely an amazing musician and singer but to say he's "the most talented artist there's ever been" seems a bit disrespectful to a lot of people. First in line would be the guy who actually wrote this song (and recorded on his own album), Bruce McCabe (the guy you see playing piano in this video). I first saw Jonny when he was still known as "Kid Jonny Lang" and he'd travel to Minneapolis with his band and play at a place called Boondocks. Bruce played their regularly with his own band, The Hoopsnakes, and that's how he got to know Jonny. Jonny's greatest hits album is literally littered with Bruce's songs (Still Rainin', Wander this World, Rack 'em Up, Lie to Me...and this one, Irish Angel). Yea, Jonny is totally amazing but to say he's the best artist ever without recognizing that his best music was written by Bruce seems a bit much. :)
One of the most beautiful songs I’ve heard. I have loved Jonny since 14 years old. He was awesome then and still is. This song goes deep into my soul 🕊 His beautiful voice makes me feel like I’m In Ireland 🇮🇪💚☘️🍀💚 Jonny has always sang from his soul 🕊 Thank you for sharing this beautiful video and God Bless 🙏🏽
I saw Jonny Lang for the first time in Nashville opening for Sting a few years ago. Couldn't forget the voice and his guitar. I believe he was in his teens at the time. Amazing talent.
This is one of my most favorite songs and this video is wonderful. I so wish Jonny and Bruce would be back together again. Bruce is the best songwriter, and Jonny is the best interpreter of his work. Just beautiful!!!
I Dedicate this song to my Mother & Father ~ Today My Irish "Daddy~Doe" would Be 87 yrs.!!! Happy Birthday Daddy! I Love & Miss You Both So Much! Thanks Jonny for such a warm & touching rendition to this thoughtful song! Love is so beautiful like the Love my Parents Shared! ~ peace!
this is absolutely the most beautiful song my ears have ever heard it truely touches my soul and this mans voice melts my heart and brings tears to eyes, not to many musicians have this type of unique abiltiy to touch me the way his music does. thanks johnny hope we never loose your voice your words
My favorite Jonny Lang song! I have been a fan since I saw him on "Austin City Limits" (1999 or 2000)! I was Blessed to see him sing this at a live show in Anaheim, CA. ~0;-)
When my wife and I saw Johnny live a few years ago, we got to meet him and some of his bandmates after the show. My wife is Irish and we immediately fell in love with the song. We asked him about it and he said that his keyboard player had written the song. We really hope he includes it on one of his future releases.
This song was written by Bruce McCabe who is playing the piano in the song. Jonny never released this on any cd, but did sing it in concert. Bruce released it on his self-titled cd.
This song was in my favorites over a year ago - and the video was removed. Thanks cyril for putting this back up there. The raw gut emotion just goes right through me.
he started to play&sing professionally @ the age 14; he is 27, now. it's a great pleasure to follow Jonny's career, from playing guitar & singing to composing. every song from 'Wander This World' & 'Long Time Coming' is a potential hit but here in Europe he is not so popular like in the US. :(
Every single song of jonny lang is superb..still cant believe he sang lie to me when he was 15..its 1000 times better than 15 years old justin bieber's baby !!!
when I heard 'Lie To Me' CD for the first time i've been shocked that so matured & genuine performance was done by 15 years old youngster (without any childish pose, simply I have trusted him). I like his concert videos very much because I can watching his very emotional singing & playing guitar - it moves me. floor is yours, and play Jonny, play!
This is why youtube is dope. All i gota do is remember a memory (like watchn this concert at like 2 n the morn years ago) and voila! Here it goes. Very dope performance
i cant believe how sings like that! have anyone heard him speak? he sounds very young and bright.. but his singing voice is so manly... damn, i want that too.
Wenn Du bereit bist, Dir Deine Seele aus dem Herzen singen zu lassen, dann musst Du diesen Song und Jonny lieben. Verrückt, aber auch Männer haben Tränen. Ich bin gestern durch Zufall auf "Irish Angle" gestoßen - es hat "leider" genau zur Situation gepasst. Aber das Leben ist das, was uns passiert, wenn wir andere Pläne haben... Thanks Jonny - das Leben geht immer weiter!
First off I would like to say that this is an awesome song. This is new to me and I'm glad I was able to find it. Second, I hate when people argue over the comments section. If you want to do that, use your email and spare the rest of us the drama. email. You are here to watch and enjoy music not bombard everyone with your insignificant opinions. Keep that to yourself.
Music brings out emotions and memories. This is why some singers become great and some become legend. Justin Beiber sings happy pop songs and there's nothing wrong with that. Lang's songs try to invoke more than just "happy". His songs try to invoke more than one emotion and there's a price to that. Millions of people just want to be happy, while a few want to feel the whole gauntlet of human emotions. Both have their audience and both should be appreciated.
Now I’ll raise a glass, and then I’ll raise another. One to forget, and one to remember. Oh... and one to dream, of how things could have been, if I hadn’t lost my Irish angle ☘️ 😇
one of my favorites by Jonny. sadly i havent heard him sing it at the last several concerts ive been too. i wish he would again. so awesome. such artistry.
It's a song for everyone who has ever lost "the one" and for those who haven't too. I don't doubt you could hear a pin drop in Phoenix, well exept for the crying sniffles. I cry everytime I hear it. Thanks for posting.
I have to listen to this often. Love him so much. I’ve seen him live several times and its almost a spiritual experience! He is truly a God - given talent and I’m thankful he can share it with the world. Amazing!! ♥️♥️♥️
I LOVE this song and don't understand why we never got it on a CD. I love his old band; I miss those early days with all the guys together. Bruce McCabe is an amazing songwriter and keyboardist and he and Jonny should be together again.
my family is Irish and Cherokee, and we have lost my niece last Jan,the 3rd was the beginning of a long nightmare,we took her off the machine on the 11th,I miss my Irish Angel so bad..I will never get over loosing such a sweet person..she was grown,(36) and had 3 children but she will always be my baby!!!
Bruce McCabe wrote it. He is the keyboard performer on the video here. He was in Jonny's original band and wrote a lot of the older wonderful songs Jonny is known for. Two talents there who mesh beautifully.
grace is gone. "One drink to remember then another to forget How could I ever dream to find sweet love like you again One drink to remember and another to forget" atleast thats my opinion...once again..jonny is the man
This guy is soooo talented. Few vocalist play a guitar with the skill of Jonny Lang. Mysteriously this song grabbed me like few songs ever have. I am 65 years old and like many genres of music but this version of this song by Jonny may well be my favorite song of all time. I too wish he would record it just so I could support him and buy it.
Same for me, grabs me every time :)
Could not agree more 💕

Ive been a Jonny fan for the last 10 years. He is simply amazing and like no other. Ive seen him once, and plan to many more times!!
One of my Favourite songs of all time, after Stand by Me.Heard the Ole Ask version but, Jonny's is the best by far.
I think I've watched this video about 5 times this morning and for some reason, I just hate to leave it.
The greatest song writers and singers write and sing the way they do because their is a realness to the song. Most people don't really listen to the words of a song. If you actually take a moment and LISTEN, you will find a story. Music is an amazing gift!
I have been following Johnny since he was 14, he is a legend in his time at such a young age. Rock on Johnny!!!!!!
Thank You for posting this clip. This lad does a heartfelt, and masterful rendition, of this ache to the marrow ballade. Will
I have followed him since he played at a local bar in Mankato Mn when he was a kid. Love him!!!!!!!
I'll always miss my Irish Angel. I wish I didn't have to let her go like I did. This song brought tears to my eyes.
I’ve only heard him do this in concert once....absolutely beautiful!
Bruce McCabe wrote one of the most beautiful heartfelt songs ever written.
Jonny Lang is the most talented artist there has ever been in my opinion. Nothing makes my soul feel as touched as when I hear his music. I thank God for Jonny Lang' s music.

He needs to do a live album and put this on it
Holy shit what a beautiful song, I'm gonna listen over and over again for weeks
Forever my favorite Jonny Lang song. So sad, yet so beautiful.
The song is brilliant, the performance is brilliant.
Jonny, what a lovely rendition that tugs at the heartstring of all with a "we bit" of Ireland in our heritage. Hurrah!
One of the most beautiful songs I’ve heard. I have loved Jonny since 14 years old. He was awesome then and still is. This song goes deep into my soul 🕊 His beautiful voice makes me feel like I’m In Ireland 🇮🇪💚☘️🍀💚 Jonny has always sang from his soul 🕊 Thank you for sharing this beautiful video and God Bless 🙏🏽
I saw Jonny Lang for the first time in Nashville opening for Sting a few years ago. Couldn't forget the voice and his guitar. I believe he was in his teens at the time. Amazing talent.
Since I've met Jonny when he was just a tyke (still is) at 14 playing at Hard Rock Cafe, I have always enjoyed his music immensly.
One of my favorite songs. I'll never get tired of hearing it and I love this video!
I just love this. Jonny is one talented guy. Thx.
Love you, Jonny! Since first I saw ye in 1999!
This is one of my most favorite songs and this video is wonderful. I so wish Jonny and Bruce would be back together again. Bruce is the best songwriter, and Jonny is the best interpreter of his work. Just beautiful!!!
Jonny Lang is one of a few distinct and superb blues and pop/soul musicians on these days. His feeling is just incredible. - From Brazil
What a beautiful song. Hear it for the first time today. Love the lyrics and the music is so soothing.
There are no words to define this man.
I love Jonny Lang! He has so much passion for his music.
All I can say is...."FREAKIN' AMAZING!!!"
I Dedicate this song to my Mother & Father ~ Today My Irish "Daddy~Doe" would Be 87 yrs.!!! Happy Birthday Daddy! I Love & Miss You Both So Much! Thanks Jonny for such a warm & touching rendition to this thoughtful song! Love is so beautiful like the Love my Parents Shared!
~ peace!
Makes me cry everytime.
to give love is a precious thing - celebrate her life - tho tragic she was a gifted soul - let it be there and done- with love
Jonny Lang, you're beautiful! So very naturally talented. I want to meet you someday.
I love jonny langs voice
This one pulls on the strings of my Irish heart. So full of soul. God Bless the Irish!

Absolutely stunning
Heartbreaking
These could be my exact words. (Except it is Jonny, not Johnny.)
My favorite Jonny Lang song! I have been a fan since I saw him on "Austin City Limits" (1999 or 2000)! I was Blessed to see him sing this at a live show in Anaheim, CA. ~0;-)

Einer der besten Songs überhaupt ! Und so etwas ist kein Hit !
Unglaublich !

THIS DEFINITELY PULLS AT THE HEART.
Incredible guitarist and singer
One of my all-time favorites by Jonny. First video I've seen of it! Thank you for the post! ~0;-)
I wish I could put this exact song on my Ipod. One of the most heartfelt performance Ive seen in a very long time.
Every single song of jonny lang is superb..still cant believe he sang lie to me when he was 15..its 1000 times better than 15 years old justin bieber's baby !!!

Vraiment un grand artiste !!
Sandy, I am so sorry for your loss. At least she is free of any pain and is at peace now.
I would love to know his thoughts while he's singing - goose bumps!
My daughter Mary went to Ireland in the fall to study abroad and now she wants to stay. I lost my Irish Angel
Wow. Beautiful song. Bruce's lyrics and keyboards with Jonny Lang's voice - pure bliss.
What an amazing young man.
Gosh I haven’t heard this for ages ❤
one of my favorites by Jonny. sadly i havent heard him sing it at the last several concerts ive been too. i wish he would again. so awesome. such artistry.
I think he stopped playing it when he changed bands. Bruce McCabe wrote the song.
It's a song for everyone who has ever lost "the one" and for those who haven't too. I don't doubt you could hear a pin drop in Phoenix, well exept for the crying sniffles. I cry everytime I hear it. Thanks for posting.
He is so talanted, miss him
I have to listen to this often. Love him so much. I’ve seen him live several times and its almost a spiritual experience! He is truly a God - given talent and I’m thankful he can share it with the world.
Amazing!! ♥️♥️♥️
I LOVE this song and don't understand why we never got it on a CD. I love his old band; I miss those early days with all the guys together. Bruce McCabe is an amazing songwriter and keyboardist and he and Jonny should be together again.
Love this song
