RIP both Ronnie Drew (1934-2008) and Shane MacGowan (1957-2023). Two wonderful vocalists of two great folk Irish bands who will be remembered forever. This performance just sees the Dubliners and Pogues enjoy a good laugh on stage with a modern Irish jig still played every 17th March today.
I love how you can see the mutual admiration and respect between them, and the fiddler for the Dubliners and the Tin Whistle player for the Pogues, just continue to grow throughout this performance. Sorry for not knowing the name members names.
The fact that the younger musicians looks so happy to play with these legends and that the older musician looks at the younger musician with proud eyes is really beautiful.
The look on Ronnie's face when Mcgowen leads into the crescendo is just great, two bands showin' each other a glimpse of the different roads they walked. Just awesome.
I can never stop watching John as he looks at Spider whistling away on his pipe - every time they show him he's watching Spider play. Two bands that met at a perfect time. Brilliant.

I added it years ago and I still come back every once in a while, and I always want to think that billions of people listen to this all the time. Then I get confused when the numbers are all the same year after year. I believe we're being scammed.
listen to the Irish futbol fans singing *"Fields of Athenry"* at the end of match in 0-4 loss to Spain (easy to find on RUclips) - the undaunted Irish spirit on full display
There were irish sections in a Mexican Regiment but he bulk of the irish emigration towards non english speaking countries went almost exclusively to Argentina
Musically talented men, that grew up in a different Ireland, most got the boat to England for work , started bands/ groups out of loneliness to pass those lonely evening,comforted by drink, they turned out to be musical geniuses , you gotta love the irish , god bless them all.
I keep revisiting this because I just love this performance, there are so many details I like. The fact that one of the lead singers is smoking and drinking at the start of the song, that one dude in the white sweater jamming out in the back, the guy with the piercings going crazy on the flute. No choreography whatsoever, everyone just doing their own thing, it's great.
I watched this with my 10 year old daughter a few months back - she said, "Dad?!.....they're pirates!", "Indeed they are pet", I said, "good pirates!". We love Ronnie, The Dubliners, Shane, The Pogues and all the lads here. RIP, to the Great Shane McGowan. X
@@igorstein5616 In the same way that we are all Palestinians, every man and woman who stands for freedom and solidarity is an Irishman. Oh oh oh and anyone who has a problem with that statement has no right to be listening to this music. I said what I said.
@@PaulRGauthieractually brother, I don’t consider myself I follower of a religion who absolutely hates women and worships a false prophet. I’m gonna continue too listen to the Pogues though
Stout, Smokes, Instruments and a microphone and these boys will have you entertained for days.. Proper old school Irish lads, proud to be part of this heritage...
Yep it always makes me laugh .Great memories and Shane was same age as me and i was born in Dublin and grew up in England but we both always called our selves true Dubs .I used to come back to Dublin and stay in Crumlin and Ballyfermot and loved the crack .There is no place on Earth with the Dublin sense of humour .God Bless up the Dubs
heard a family story from my father. My uncle was a Sargeant (twice) in the Irish army. One time they drove an armored car through the town, about 10 of them, all drunk, singing this song. The name of the armored car . .."the Irish rover".
Love that all the musicians featured have respect for one another. You can tell even though Shane is blasted he stumbles over his verse when (forgot his name) the Dubliners lead singer starts the verse. Absolutely lad version of the Irish rover
Dubliners & Pogues' leaders are now in the Paradise of Irish legends for eternity 🕊🕊🍀🇮🇪 We so much love you both guys ! Rest In PEACE and in my HEART for ever Shane💚
Such a fun and catchy tune, also an immersive and captivating performance. Greetings from Mexico, much respect and love to all the Irish around the world 🇲🇽💚🇮🇪
I don't believe there's a drop of Irish blood anywhere in my family tree, but maybe I've been reincarnated. I love this. RIP, Shane MacGowan, I am very sad about your passing. Thanks for all the hours of beautiful music.
Whatever it is , Shane had it. I think it's the authenticity. He lived it. A rare thing in Ireland these days. His funeral is in his home town on Friday. R.I.P Shane . A great Irishman. His songs will go on forever.
Dubliners - the streamlined, grown classic version, Pogues - the authentic version, feels like a flashback into the 19th century directly into the harbour with all the sailors. Both great pieces of art.
Rare moment in time when these two groups can share a same stage at the same time. The audience, cameramen and the proverbial fly on the wall were all blessed to be here that night!
I love it how Eamonn has so much fun. So proud of his creation! For those who don't know, it is said he was the mastermind behind this now legendary collaboration.
R.I.P. Tchaikovsky who brought us The Nutcracker and 1812 Overture and R.I.P. to Eamonn his grandson who brought us this song EDIT: cause they both got white hair in their 50s but both died young
i love the progression of the dubliners playing that day: tolerance for a stunt into patience for shane's 'unique' singing voice, into surprise the pogues know the songs note for note and can play it as tight as they can, into shock shane knowing the song beat for beat blindfolded but choosing to sound like a hardcare band the last verse. 10/10.
I've known this performance existed for the longest time, yet have only now decided to actually find and watch it. It's one of the BEST things I've ever seen!! 💖💖
LYRICS: On the fourth of July, 1806 We set sail from the sweet cove of Cork We were sailing away with a cargo of bricks For the Grand City Hall in New York 'Twas a wonderful craft She was rigged fore and aft And oh, how the wild wind drove her She stood several blasts She had twenty-seven masts And they called her The Irish Rover We had one million bags of the best Sligo Rags We had two million barrels of stone We had three million sides of old blind horses hides We had four million barrels of bones We had five million hogs Six million dogs Seven million barrels of porter We had eight million bails of old nanny goats' tails In the hold of The Irish Rover There was ol' Mickey Coote Who played hard on his flute When the ladies lined up for a set He was tootin' with skill For each sparkling quadrille Though the dancers were fluther'd and bet With his smart witty talk He was cock of the walk And he rolled the dames under and over They all knew at a glance When he took up his stance That he sailed in The Irish Rover There was Barney McGee From the banks of the Lee There was Hogan from County Tyrone There was Johnny McGurk Who was scared stiff of work And a man from Westmeath called Malone There was Slugger O'Toole Who was drunk as a rule And fighting Bill Treacy from Dover And your man, Mick MacCann From the banks of the Bann Was the skipper on The Irish Rover For the sailor it's always a bother in life It's so lonesome by night and by day That he longs for the shore And a charming young whore Who will melt all his troubles away Oh, the noise and the rout Swillin' poitin and stout For him soon the torment's over Of the love of a maid, he is never afraid That old salt from The Irish Rover We had sailed seven years When the measles broke out And the ship lost its way in the fog And that whale of a crew Was reduced down to two Just myself and the Captain's old dog Then the ship struck a rock Oh Lord, what a shock The bulkhead was turned right over Turned nine times around And the poor old dog was drowned And the last of The Irish Rover
The Dubliners' and an English/Irish punk band...as good as it gets. And regardless of any oddities...all these lads, young and old, are tremendous musicians and performers.
Makes me proud to be full blooded Irish I remember being a child going around Dublin,fecking beautiful days ,shame how the city has gone these days ,but Shane and the Dubliners will never be forgotten
What a beautiful sound. I didn't even know about the Pogues until a few years ago because my mum's Irish neighbour insisted on playing this and "Fairy Tale Of New York" during Christmas. Thank you Susan.
Brings me back too being a child peeking around the corner to see the Irish singsong going on with my mum and dad and their friends ❤and my aunts and uncles. The best times 🇮🇪☘️🇨🇦
As me I know some people in Germany in the 70th and 80th who loved to hear and play irish music. I have been in a concert with The Dubliners in this times ... full townhall with singing and dancing customers! LATER YEARS I too enjoyed The Pogues ... Like her style and a lot of songs ... still a bit sad about Shane Mc Gowan and his health ... I love his music and always "Dirty old town" and "Fairytale of New York" is going so deep in my heart ... Looking forward to hear more from both so different Groups with good irish music ! 🎸🎺🎻🪕🥁
It really doesn’t matter how many times you listen to this the goosebumps are unbelievable! If you have an Irish heart this touches it that’s for sure 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪
Always put this on when coming home after a few jars on the night and enjoy it but tonight it felt so much more poignant. Rest In Eternal Peace to an absolute powerhouse I hope Shane knows how much people he touched in his time on this Earth he was truly special
God damn i've been Old now. I was growin up with this music, and many of them are passing away, but great Times and still great music. God bless and R.I.P
This is the pinnacle of music. Nothing better has ever been created, and nothing ever will. This video and this song will stand the test of time forever and ever.
I think Shane drank all the seven billion barrels of Porter.
I think Ronnie drank at least his fair share
It's only 7 million, that's doable.
You Irish supremacists 😵
who could blame him
@@pietzsche porter barrels are also only small in size
RIP both Ronnie Drew (1934-2008) and Shane MacGowan (1957-2023).

They will be always in Our hearts, never will forget them.
You just broke my heart. Thank you though. I didn’t know.
Not ashamed to say I cried hearing about Shane McGowan today. What a talent. Will never not love The Pogues (and the Dubs), especially this song.
Same .
😔☘💚
It broke my heart, not a good day, heard it before anything else. Rest In Peace, Shane
I broke my fvcking heart. What an artist and a poet.🍀
I did too another irish legend gone unfortunately ❤❤
I remember the pogues at my father's 40th when I was 13. Beautiful time to be alive

This is a dubliners song

The fact that the younger musicians looks so happy to play with these legends and that the older musician looks at the younger musician with proud eyes is really beautiful.
Yeah, but this is from back in the mid-‘80s. Now those “younger” guys are really much older.
Nicely observed
@@bargainbassist yeah that's called Time.
@@LD-rs1oj haha yeah, astute observation
@@socrjox10 big brain energy lol
The blood alcohol level on that stage would have defied physics. And yet, a true and brilliant performance.
Shane could have stood alone on that stage and your statement would still be true.
Ronnie Drew wasn’t a drinker
@@conormccaffery5821in irish metrics, yes
lol@@conormccaffery5821
As a Dane it was the very first time i found someone who could keep up with my drinking!
R.I.P. My man passed away while I was i was having a super rough go in rehab. His music has forever changed my life and he will be surely missed..
hope your'e having a better go of it now mate.hang in there

I can never stop watching John as he looks at Spider whistling away on his pipe - every time they show him he's watching Spider play. Two bands that met at a perfect time. Brilliant.
Ronnie reckoned it was the fastest he'd ever had to sing.
And vice versa as ronnie takes off

RIP Shane from Corsica !
Heaven is in mayhem lol
Its crazy how many people come back to this everyday... this song is a masterpiece!
Everyday!
I just found it , reminds me of grandad born in dublin mvd 2 NZ 2 run a MUCK

I can’t get enough
Performances are so choreographed these days. I love how free and fun this performance is. Just pure fun 🤩
And by the looks of it a couple of them were drunk.
THEY DIDN'T MISS A NOTE🤗👍
It's the Irish way - *don't worry about the horse 🐎 being blind, just load the wagon* 💪☘️🇮🇪🎶
listen to the Irish futbol fans singing *"Fields of Athenry"* at the end of match in 0-4 loss to Spain (easy to find on RUclips) - the undaunted Irish spirit on full display
I don't get how either singer doesn't at least tap their feet to this. I wouldn't be able to resist.
agreed
As an Italian-American living in Germany this song makes me proud to be Irish.
Haha!
As a proud African-American living in China, this song makes me proud to be Irish.
As a New Zealand Māori this makes me proud to be Irish.
As Japanese jew living in Saudi Arabia, what are you all talking about!!!🤷♂️
😂
My parents are Irish and and I've just returned from Kerry the song is so beautiful I never stop playing it RIP true Irish lady
The literal fusion of Trad and Punk. One of the top 5 greatest collabs of all time. Fight me.
No arguments here mate...
what for when you are right?
make Trad Punk irish again!
Oil foight tye
Nah you right
No need…you nailed it. Absolutely fucking fantastic!
Shane always said how much of an honour it was to play with the Dubliners. They carried him, bless the fella! R.I.P!
What a terrific synthesis of music. These bands have really great chemistry together.
Don't know what's that in yer pipe you be smokin'.... But, YES, I whole heartedly AGREE!!!!!!!!!
musique irlandaise ..c'est frais et joyeux ca donne envie de se taper une bonne biere
I love how Shane screams into the microphone at 3:30.
Easy, they make the same kind of music
As st Patrick’s day approaches I can’t help but think of this man.
Love you all! And cheers !
Here on paddys day..

I am Latino and have zero ties to Ireland but this music resonates with me so much 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪
That's what it's all about!
Depending on where you are from, look up "Saint Patrick's battalion". There's even songs about them here on RUclips.
@@patron8597 My grandparents were from Mexico. Never new about St. Patrick’s Battalion til now. It all makes sense now 🇮🇪🇲🇽🇮🇪🇲🇽
Eso no tiene nada que ver. Yo tampoco tengo un carajo que ver con Irlanda pero al que no le guste esta música no tiene alma.
There were irish sections in a Mexican Regiment but he bulk of the irish emigration towards non english speaking countries went almost exclusively to Argentina
Musically talented men, that grew up in a different Ireland, most got the boat to England for work , started bands/ groups out of loneliness to pass those lonely evening,comforted by drink, they turned out to be musical geniuses , you gotta love the irish , god bless them all.
The fun these guys are having together makes me warm inside.. the smiles on the musician's faces are priceless
God bless Irish music and these musicians and singers and those who pay to see them and support live music. RIP Shane you will be missed. ❤
I keep revisiting this because I just love this performance, there are so many details I like. The fact that one of the lead singers is smoking and drinking at the start of the song, that one dude in the white sweater jamming out in the back, the guy with the piercings going crazy on the flute. No choreography whatsoever, everyone just doing their own thing, it's great.
The way their hands are in their pockets too haha
I do the exact same thing, it's the little things isnt it? Like the jamming out guy.
You can see it on their faces how much they enjoyed playing with each other. New school paying respects to the old school and now they're old school.
RIP Shane your a legend. absolutely love the irish music, its so uplifting. you will be missed. 🖤🖤🖤
I watched this with my 10 year old daughter a few months back - she said, "Dad?!.....they're pirates!", "Indeed they are pet", I said, "good pirates!". We love Ronnie, The Dubliners, Shane, The Pogues and all the lads here. RIP, to the Great Shane McGowan. X

I'm one of countless people who will be raising a glass to the passing of the man tonight. Cheers to you Shane. What you gave us can never be repaid.

Simply outstanding performance 👏👏 RIP Shane a true Irish legend
Shane was a genius. Watched this multiple times this year 2023 and I love his spirit.
Magic between two legends, both Ronnie and Shane and The Dubliners and The Pogues.
Can there ever be a better sight than seeing musicians enjoying playing together.
agreed its beautiful
What an amazing performance
This piece just became infinitely more legendary than it was ever before, rest in piece Ronnie and Shane.
Dubliners - the streamlined, grown classic version, Pogues - the authentic version, feels like a flashback into the 19th century directly into the harbour with all the sailors. Both great pieces of art.
This has got to be one of the most uplifting smile on your face songs that I’ve ever heard … Dubliners / Pogues 🍀🍀🍀 love ya

LYRICS:
On the fourth of July, 1806
We set sail from the sweet cove of Cork
We were sailing away with a cargo of bricks
For the Grand City Hall in New York
'Twas a wonderful craft
She was rigged fore and aft
And oh, how the wild wind drove her
She stood several blasts
She had twenty-seven masts
And they called her The Irish Rover
We had one million bags of the best Sligo Rags
We had two million barrels of stone
We had three million sides of old blind horses hides
We had four million barrels of bones
We had five million hogs
Six million dogs
Seven million barrels of porter
We had eight million bails of old nanny goats' tails
In the hold of The Irish Rover
There was ol' Mickey Coote
Who played hard on his flute
When the ladies lined up for a set
He was tootin' with skill
For each sparkling quadrille
Though the dancers were fluther'd and bet
With his smart witty talk
He was cock of the walk
And he rolled the dames under and over
They all knew at a glance
When he took up his stance
That he sailed in The Irish Rover
There was Barney McGee
From the banks of the Lee
There was Hogan from County Tyrone
There was Johnny McGurk
Who was scared stiff of work
And a man from Westmeath called Malone
There was Slugger O'Toole
Who was drunk as a rule
And fighting Bill Treacy from Dover
And your man, Mick MacCann
From the banks of the Bann
Was the skipper on The Irish Rover
For the sailor it's always a bother in life
It's so lonesome by night and by day
That he longs for the shore
And a charming young whore
Who will melt all his troubles away
Oh, the noise and the rout
Swillin' poitin and stout
For him soon the torment's over
Of the love of a maid, he is never afraid
That old salt from The Irish Rover
We had sailed seven years
When the measles broke out
And the ship lost its way in the fog
And that whale of a crew
Was reduced down to two
Just myself and the Captain's old dog
Then the ship struck a rock
Oh Lord, what a shock
The bulkhead was turned right over
Turned nine times around
And the poor old dog was drowned
And the last of The Irish Rover
That's fuckin dedication mate
Copy and paste job brother so i can sing a long ha @@Jbeam957

Great version! I love the deep voice of Ronnie Drew. I'm so Irish that I cry over his death every time I hear his sweet voice.
thank you guys, YOU ARE ALL AMAZING and you make my day whenerver i watch this
It brings a tear to my eye, a tune that Donny Rovers play before every match. I hope this version will be played at the next home game, A sad loss.

Good memories of my trip to Ireland in 1987. Gérald From France. RIP SHANE
I hope the bars in heaven are prepared! RIP Shane MacGowan and thank you for the music!
Always put this on when coming home after a few jars on the night and enjoy it but tonight it felt so much more poignant.
Rest In Eternal Peace to an absolute powerhouse I hope Shane knows how much people he touched in his time on this Earth he was truly special
God damn i've been Old now. I was growin up with this music, and many of them are passing away, but great Times and still great music. God bless and R.I.P
Just an amazing piece of music and a performance. Nothing like this today. RIP Shane ❤
One of the most gorgeous videos of music and musicians I have ever seen! Down to earth and realistic and gorgeous!
Shane was having an absolute blast in this clip. RIP to a legend!
I saw the Dubliners live several times. They never disappointed, it was always a fantastic night out. and everyone got involved.
This is the pinnacle of music. Nothing better has ever been created, and nothing ever will. This video and this song will stand the test of time forever and ever.
