+Tommy Shields Absolutely. Wonderfiul singer. let's drop all this religion stuff for five minutes and enjoy the serious stuff, the craic, the music and if only for few fleeting minutes, some sort of escape from this gruesome world, where the only certainties are death and taxes....from a Scottish admirer.
+Gregor McGregor. The RICH (Super Rich), Don't pay taxes. Only the "Poor" pay taxes. Apple &Google need to pay their Full taxes not 5%. Search for a BBC news website stated that €23 TRILLION But could be upto $ 30,000,000,000,000 ( $30 TRILLION !! ) "IS Sitting in Off shore bank accounts (tax havens) of the Real RICH.and Not Taxed. The Rich of the Western World are getting Richer and the Poor are getting Pooer. Last week Oxfam stated that now "down to 62 (was in 2010 350 people) Only 62 people have 50% of the World's wealth equal to 3,500,000,000 people the other 50% the Poor. Not right! Q. Why aren't The RICH giving away 51% of the riches they have to help poor people. If a man has €100 MILLION he "Wants (Greed)" $1 BILLION. Just pure Greed,. I know my own uncle is an example and my aunts are not far behind.
Even though i dont believe i have irish ancestry, i feel nostolgic when i imagine my european ancestors leaving their homeland, leaving knowing they wont return but keeping the hope that they might see their land once again. Its an obligation for every european american to visit the land of his ancestors , as his ancestors wished they could.
@alecpayne " If that's your sentiment arising from 'Exile', look up his 'Far Away in Australia' (now there's a destination from where not many 19th century European immigrant ever returned) and 'Isle of hope/Isle of Tears'. Neil Diamond's 'America' captures it, too.
Sean is a wonderful singer,,he makes it look so easy.Paul Brady is another great Irish singer with this special quality.Nic Jones & Martyn Wyndham- Read as English singers have this special sound,but hey wherever they are from all singers deserve praise.
One of the sweetest melodies ever sung, surely. Nice circularity to it. About emigration nation. Diaspora Republic. Sweet chords, exquisite voice. Discernably Keane.
fire flicker on the grey walls means old cottage in ireland thats all may light the whole house on the walls that would have may not even have a picture on the wall just bare grey walls up the irish
Hi Brendan, the pub in the picture is Connolly's on the quay in Kinvara, Co. Galway, Ireland. Not sure its where the recording is taking place but I'd imagine it is - a well known music pub!
Go raibh maith agat. Did anyone else, not from the Old Country, pick up that that was what the lass who introduces Sean, was saying the first nanoseconds of her intro ?
Ireland's finest singer no airs and graces just pure natural talent. An absolute gentleman who has time for everybody
