I needed this. My father passed two days ago and always insisted this song had to be played after his passing. This song looked at my despair and did exactly what was needed - it ripped the piss out of it. Thank you Dad. For this and your other choice ruclips.net/video/nFxjnUPRwx4/видео.html
I definitly want this sung at my funeral.
Joanies version too!
This song and Take me home to Mayo will be played at my funeral
I love the Irish open defiance of death!
Agreed - but I think the song is of English origin
Still my song to go to when at times i take life to serious.
That'll be for my funeral bloody brilliant
This song, and Fiddlers Green will be played at my funeral

Sorry for u loss
Most Irish songs hit home . Rip to your father
I love the shots of Tom - I think he was great and just seeing him makes me smile, I wonder what he was like as a person?
Find someone who looks at you like the Clancy Brothers look at Tommy Makem.

"let's have bloody goodl cry"
And for the flip side, The Parting Glass....
fine song
the reality of grief with irish humour
does anyone know where this was filmed?
I know I'm a year late, it was filmed in New York, Carnegie Hall, if i'm not mistaken
@@patrickhannon4217 thanks, better late than never :)
@SarahA O' C J I stand completely corrected, I take it all back, I have the full concert downloaded and I just checked: The Ulster Hall, Belfast
@SarahA O' C J thanks :)
Patrick Hannon is in fact correct here, New York, Carnegie Hall
