Joe, You are my childhood wrapped into a melody.My father who is now dying loved your voice.He was a milkman and as we travelled the country roads of Ireland your songs would blast out from the van.Every note is etched into my conciousness ,your voice is closer than the air to me.I have spent the last 12 years travelling thye world but when I hear you I am back in Ireland. R.I.P Joe.
Joe was born in Walsh's town just outside the town of Mullingar in Westmeath in his early years, he then moved into Mullingar and stayed with his brother for a few years, later he bought a flat over the pub they now own, and for ease of travel bought a house in Dublin to be close to the airport.Joe was never a traveller but no matter what your back ground was he treated everybody with respect, that was the true nature of the man, a true Gentleman to the last.
Był wspaniałym piosenkarzem.Pozostawił cudowne piosenki.Nie było mi dane spotkać się z nim,ale cieszy mnie to,że mogę oglądać i słuchać Jego tu na you tube
Irelands Elvis, seen him in Bundorran, and spent too many hours in the residents bar afterwards with him, true gentleman the whole time. A memory that will last me a lifetime....thanks Joe
Used to listen to Joe Dolan's songs in the early seventies , via my 4 track tapes in my car. Great memories - Thanks Joe 🙏 . Rest in heavenly peace good man.
What a showman, loved him since make me an island when in my teens. What memories his voice evokes. RIP Joe, another star in the firmament. God Bless Gutted England
Music like this with a fantastic backing group not heard in 2018 sadly.. This song always gave me goose bumps and still does and l'm in my 70's ...great tune thank you.
It was 1969, i was 15 years old, i was working in London (I'm from Donegal)Joe Dolan was top of the charts with "Make me and Island" - it was going to be a great summer after all!
I am a Essex girl ....now living in IRELAND .....London in the 60s and 70s .the best never to be seen again....the youth won't have our memories......breaks my heart....
I knew Joe from 1965. This is good.............but his best singing years were from the late 60's to the late 70's. The voice got a little more horsed from all the singing. I remember him being pulled off the stage at a dance in Portmarnock, Dublin one night by hundreds of beautiful ladies. There were almost 3000 people there that night. Greatest artist (in my book) to come out of Ireland ♪♫ ♥
Pentru cine nu știe, JOE DOLAN a cântat acest cântec în anul 1969 la Brașov la Cerbul de aur. Deși era deja în fruntea topurilor internaționale, acest minunat cântec nu a luat nici măcar mențiune. Timpul ne-a demonstrat că este nemuritor
my grandad lived over butts bridge in leigh, how mad. I wanted to watch this vid as it remaind me of him he really liked joe dolan, when my grandad died i took a tape he had of joe dolan and now i love his songs. What a small world. and how strange that i should see a comment from someone from leigh im from astley, RIP JOE AND GRANDAD DENIS
rip joe its just today that i found out that he was the perpormer of 2 songs i love:"make me an island" & "lady in blue" he had a great voice & untill today i tought it was a french singer who sing"S those songs. Assy from Israel.
Thanks Joe for all the concerts you done in City West over the years for charity after the golf arranged by your friend Chas Fagan.You gave so much,I hope people dont forget.
I want this song to be played at my wedding..sometime in the future:-) The most beautiful explanation of love ever. This man was so talented!!!! Love the song and his voice!
me an my nephew sittn listening to this song on mothers day an it was my mums songs she has it on her head stone..........make me an island..hope ur in ur own wee island love you mum...happy mothers day love you.xxx
Ar Dheis De a ainm, I had the pleasure of meeting him some 20 years ago when my cousin Jimmy Walsh played drums with him and Nodger and all the crew. He was a true gentleman and a legend of Irish Music. Christy Hennessy and Joe will surely add a new dimension to the Heavenly Choir.
My thought is that in 20 years and for longer people will watch this and enjoy as we are. I have a little thing with my grandchildren we sit and exchange things like in this case music.
This record was the first present my boyfriend - later husband - bought for me, and I have kept it all these years. This is the first time I have seen Joe Dolan. I still love this song. Thanks for posting.
Seen him live when I was 9 lol brought up on to the stage and teased about my girlfriend jenene lol my mum loved this man's music was definitely missed.
Different eyes, different sighs, different girls every day, Different names, different games took my breath clean away. But I'm changed, rearranged, I'm enlightened and how, you have caught me, you have taught me and I'm different now. Take me and break me and close all your windows and doors. Shut me off, cut me off, make me an island, I'm yours. Take me away from the world, take me away from the girls. Take me and break me and make me an island, I'm yours. Running round, shifting ground, that's the life I have seen. But I'm tired, uninspired and I've wiped my slate clean. You are mine, I am yours if the Lord will allow. You have caught me, you have taught me and I'm different now. Sharmini Satgunam !
I saw Joe with the Drifters a few times in London at the Harp Club and Buffaloes back in the early 70’s I’m English but loved the Irish Showbands. R.I.P Joe 😔
Singers like Joe with songs such as this will last an eternity, more so than some of the crap being mass produced in todays music world. I am a great fan of Joe's and even my teenage children enjoy his music, that is the reason that Joe will continue to be remembered and enjoyed for a long time to come.
Reminds me of part of the summer of 1969 I spent in Schruns, Montafon, Austria. Thanks for posting it! Vielen Dank fuer die Erinnerungen aus einer anderen Zeit.

Different eyes, different sighs, different girls every day,

you have caught me, you have taught me and I'm different now.
Take me and break me and close all your windows and doors.
Shut me off, cut me off, make me an island, I'm yours.
Take me away from the world, take me away from the girls.
Take me and break me and make me an island, I'm yours.
Running round, shifting ground, that's the life I have seen.
But I'm tired, uninspired and I've wiped my slate clean.
You are mine, I am yours if the Lord will allow.
You have caught me, you have taught me and I'm different now.

There was an era of italian hits in our top X lists, Joe D, Tom J, Dave D, Tremeloes, just to mention some. I loved those hits.
It was beautiful time for everybody.I hope so !!!
Eu cu muzica asta am crescut..dar și acum o ascult cu multa placere.
Urăsc manele de care bucureșteni sunt asa de indragostiti
Nu merita comparatia!
