- 'Long Long Before Your Time' was my first original composition.
The inspiration came to me while sitting on a stone in a field at the back of Kennedy's Pub in Doocastle, where I was gigging on Easter Monday night in 1975. I remember, as I sat watching the doe-eyed cows grazing on the grass in the field, a feeling of deep melancholy came over me, and a rather sad and tragic story started to formulate itself in my head.
The song is in the style of the old melodramatic songs that were popular on the stages of the Victorian music halls, and I am proud to say people still request it after all these years.
My x husband gerry passed away few weeks your cd was the last songs he listened to in cd playing I got he always loved your songs Gerry Rip 🙏
I listen to this song quite a bit, and now my three year old goes around singing her version of it. I pray she will grow up enjoying this kind of music rather than than the trash of today.
What a legend and a beautiful voice he has.
Such moving songs eaçh one tells a story and he tells it from the heart love you johny you can tell he is a gentle soul God bless you🙏🌹
Fabulous voice. One of our best songwriter and singer. Listen to you all day and thoroughly enjoy
I love this song and I am very happy to listen your wonderful voice
Thank you,Johnny McEvoy, for all you've given us throughout the years. Cherished memories.
Johnny such a special song, special memories of a lost love, RIP Jo ❤
That was pure class, I remember hearing this when I was younger, and have been seeking out tunes like this lately.
The respect shown by the audience is amazing, not a hoop, holler or an annoying whistling that you get at a lot of concerts these days where you cant even hear the singers perform.
Outstanding job Mr. McEvoy!
The voice never gave up. I'm 62 years old and was suckled on this music. Great Johnny - thanks for the great music.
This is a true Irish classic
Though wrote by Johnny Mc Evoy, the song ' long, long before time' is surely not an Irish Classic.
Great song. Happy to find you here.
Johnny mcevoy is such a gifted and talented singer but he is under rated such a shame
I love that song and of course your voice
