I would lay the entire catalogue of traditional Irish ballads and laments at the feet of this man to continue the legacy of great Irish artists…he is exceptional
Just saw this on tv and felt compelled to say my kids are so lucky to have Dermot Kennedy in their time to revitalise our beautiful ballads. He is such a wonderful talent
I have never commented nor have I ever been on social media but I have come on here in the hope it reaches Dermot to say that this is the most beautiful song I have ever heard Joe soap plumber hand on heart flawless. Thank you
My God Above. One listen and it made me weep. 46 yrs old. Major problem drinker still learning and healing. Stunning bud. Just stunning! Thank you so much!
I wish I was in Carrickfergus Only for nights in Ballygrand I would swim over the deepest ocean The deepest ocean for my love to find But the sea is wide and I cannot swim over Neither have I wings to fly If I could find me a handsome boatsman To ferry me over to my love and die My childhood days bring back sad reflections Of happy times spent so long ago My childhood friends and my own relations Have all passed on now like melting snow But I'll spend my days in endless roaming Soft is the grass, my bed is free Ah, to be back now in Carrickfergus On that long road down to the sea I'll spend my days in endless roaming Soft is the grass, my bed is free But I am sick now, and my days are numbered Come all you young men and lay me down
This had me in tears! 🥺🥺🥹🥹💔 You really did this song so much justice, Dermot! Hauntingly beautiful and bittersweet. I shared it with my sister and she thought it was a theatre piece!
This song has been sung many a time after a good session, brings back many memories for me, some very emotional. There is nothing on this planet like a good Irish sing song, Raglan road, Spancil hill, The Green Fields of France, a soldiers promise etc, can’t beat it. As for this performance it’s unreal, beautiful performance…
The music I'm listening is come and goes and only Dermot stays in my playlist always. Another music can make me sad, angry, happy... and only Dermot's songs, even if they are "sad" make me happy always.
Absolutely incredible. His voice is truly one of a kind. And this rendition of this song- it’s beyond. Can’t help but tear up. I wish it was available on iTunes to purchase. I will just keep rewatching this til is.
Wow! My favorite version of this song ever. Tears!!!!! What I wouldn’t give to hear you sing some of these old songs on an entire album. This and The Parting Glass are breathtaking when you sing them.
So in love with this performance. An explosion of emotions through lyrics and that unique, powerful voice. It takes your breath away, it moves your heart... simply brilliant
My cat just told me to tell you about him first. Can't refuse. (He Swyped in "My" just as I was about to open with another part first) My cat just came and laid down next to me quietly as this was playing and then started batting at the phone when it ended. "Wait, put it back on, Mom. I liked that." I'm pretty sure I could listen to this a thousand times and find a new bit of beauty in it each time. My cat could too. Simply subreatheous 💛💛 Thank you for sharing ♥️♥️ Love, me and my cat (Sorry for the brevity, must replay)
❤ his voice 👌👌👌👌👌 gives me chills ❤ I've heard this song so many times from different singers I love him an brian kennedy singing it 😍 Irish lady her 🇮🇪
Hi dear I hope you are having a good day Where you are..? This song hits so deeply into my heart and It keep a refreshing memory to me about someone I can't have back anymore 😢.

Isn't he amazing Rosaleen❤
Put this on a album just shivers down my spine when you sing this 🎵🎶🎹♥️🎻wow x
I've heard the song a hundred times - but it gave me goosebumps for the first time!
I wish Dermot would get these songs put onto his Spotify. 🙏
An old, deep soulful song, sung by an old, deep and musical soul. Just beautiful.
I have never commented nor have I ever been on social media but I have come on here in the hope it reaches Dermot to say that this is the most beautiful song I have ever heard Joe soap plumber hand on heart flawless. Thank you
This song has been sung by the best singers but i have never felt a singer hit my heart like Dermot does when he sings it💛💙
Holy fuckin shit. Dermot is one of a kind. Along Capaldi two of the best singers the last 10-20 years.
You ain't kidding, brother ❤️🔥☘️🇮🇪
My God Above. One listen and it made me weep. 46 yrs old. Major problem drinker still learning and healing. Stunning bud. Just stunning! Thank you so much!
All the best to you! As Mark Kermode always says: It’ll be alright in the end. And if it’s not alright, it’s not the end 🙂
Ah pal, sending you lots and lots of love❤
This is so beautiful the lyrics put tears in my eyes your voice Dermot is amazing 🎹🎵🎶☘️⚽️🐶
This rendition reminds me of how beautiful it is to be alive.
Hear, hear Jamie🤩
Just play this Dermot over and over so beautiful wow wow I can’t say words how this song touches me 🎻🎹🎶🎵⚽️🐕🐶💪💚☘️❤️
I wish I was in Carrickfergus
Only for nights in Ballygrand
I would swim over the deepest ocean
The deepest ocean for my love to find
But the sea is wide and I cannot swim over
Neither have I wings to fly
If I could find me a handsome boatsman
To ferry me over to my love and die
My childhood days bring back sad reflections
Of happy times spent so long ago
My childhood friends and my own relations
Have all passed on now like melting snow
But I'll spend my days in endless roaming
Soft is the grass, my bed is free
Ah, to be back now in Carrickfergus
On that long road down to the sea
I'll spend my days in endless roaming
Soft is the grass, my bed is free
But I am sick now, and my days are numbered
Come all you young men and lay me down
Truly beautiful - Dermot please do an album of traditional Irish Songs that was wonderful - a 🇬🇧Fan
This is genuinely the most incredible thing I have ever heard
This had me in tears! 🥺🥺🥹🥹💔 You really did this song so much justice, Dermot! Hauntingly beautiful and bittersweet. I shared it with my sister and she thought it was a theatre piece!
This song is mine and my mams favourite song she played it through my childhood and now I can't help but tear up while listening to this version ❤
As a long-time fan of Irish traditional music, l must say this is simply beautiful . I'd love to hear your versions of a few more trad songs.
Pure Gold 💛
This is mine and my mams favourite song i cant wait to show her this version i know she will love it❤❤❤
This song has been sung many a time after a good session, brings back many memories for me, some very emotional. There is nothing on this planet like a good Irish sing song, Raglan road, Spancil hill, The Green Fields of France, a soldiers promise etc, can’t beat it.
As for this performance it’s unreal, beautiful performance…
Happy St Patrick's day!
I Wish I was back in Cork…. Every day ❤

Dermot sings this one perfectly! ❤ the violin coming in, beautiful!
We lost Saint Shane Macgowan yesterday. Son, you now the front line. It would do you well to pay tribute to the legend 🇮🇪
Diese Stimme...Ich schließe meine Augen und höre sie...So voller Kraft,emotional total im Rausch...WUNDERSCHÖN...
This rendition is a pure gold. Your singing touched my soul. Dermot, you are one of a kind!
The music I'm listening is come and goes and only Dermot stays in my playlist always. Another music can make me sad, angry, happy... and only Dermot's songs, even if they are "sad" make me happy always.
I was on my scrolling mode when I saw your comment and was moved to send a text, hope you are having a good day?
It's always incredible how beautifully you can sing and how you make every song your own. ♡
Been listening on repeat since this performance, absolutely stunning!
Ich liebe dieses Lied! Es geht mir sehr nahe! Die Stimme von Dermot 💗❤️🔥👍🫶

Breathtaking! I hope this gets released for purchase sometimes. I have probably listened to this 60 times in two days.
I'm the same! I can't stop listening. I'm from Carrickfergus and living in Australia so it hits deep
My cat just told me to tell you about him first. Can't refuse. (He Swyped in "My" just as I was about to open with another part first)
My cat just came and laid down next to me quietly as this was playing and then started batting at the phone when it ended. "Wait, put it back on, Mom. I liked that."
I'm pretty sure I could listen to this a thousand times and find a new bit of beauty in it each time. My cat could too. Simply subreatheous 💛💛
