I‘m from Magdeburg, East Germany. This weekend is the annual medieval Kaiser-Otto-Festival. An irish band was playing. I wished to play „whiskey in the jarre“ and so they did. After, in a break the singe from Dublin brought me a bottle of Connemara. And now I‘m sitting on my roofterrace and love my drink. Thanks Ireland.
Thank you, for the invitation. But I know Ireland, the wonderful landscape (I walked the Atlantic Highway), the amazing people there, the music and for sure the good tasting whiskey. And the green eyed ladies.
We have the greenest grass the best foods and not forgetting our amazing selection of drinks here in Ireland. Uisce beatha is the Gaelic name for whiskey. Literally translates. “ the water of life” Slainte Irish toast meaning health
First time I ever heard this song was in a local South Boston Pub my Dad and GrandPa drank in about 65 years ago!!! Still LOVE it. We moved to Cape Cod the next year and the next time I was in that Pub was when my Brother and I came back from Vietnam. When we walked in, the Barkeep said “You are Billy Sullivan’s boys, aren’t ya?” We never got to buy a drink!!!!!!
Oh yea , all of those classically trained orchestral string players with master's degrees & better , would obviously be totally useless with this tune !!! Only one born to the role can play it & do it justice !!!
60-year-old African-American thin Lizzy fan here. Because I’m familiar with the 1970s version of the song I can understand how it means so much more to the Irish people than it does to anyone else. I really like this version because it’s not amateur.
Das Mädel mit der Geige ist ein über Hammer, aber was soll ich sagen das ganze team ist der Hammer es ist schön solche super musik zu hören Danke an alle ^^
I'm from Dallas and saw them at the Granada. Great shows. They were a fixture at the Great State Fair of Texas for years. Won over many new fans there.
Wonderful musicianship ! Nominally the Irish National Anthem, every Irish bar band does a cover, yet this group manages to breathe some fresh vigor and energy into it. Bravo !!
Wowwwww what a band my first time hearing them . They are just fantastic from the drummer to the lady playing the fiddle they could make their instruments talk .. The best version anyone could ever hear of this song . well done to all . Going to look to see can i see any more of this great band .. Everyone of you deserve praise for this version of this old song .. keep it up .. clapssssss west of Ireland music lover .....The young lady playing the fiddle is gifted with great talent ...
Saw them there several times my self I worked for Dr Pepper there and I always would make time to go watch these folks at least two times a day during the whole fair they are amazing live true musicians she gets down on the fiddle like no other
the intro is the sound one gets high from the sound love is made of the sound that permeates the soul to the core finds your heart and moulds it back to life keeps its beat !!!!!! i loved it
The violin intro on this is EPIC, it leaves me at least with the hairs on my neck standing up, it is haunting, melodic and for me one of the best intros ever. the rest of the performance is excellent.
Keep on doing such great work and music. You are very welcome. Even in old damned Germany. Yes we Huns are loving you! Thumbs up! Stay as you are. Kindest Regards. Christian
The idea of music even when it is an interpretation of a classic is the freedom of the music itself. Music is self expression. The Killdares did an excellent rendition. And the introduction was unique and I personally enjoyed it. If you didn't like it no need to ridicule. Just move on. Channel you inner hate in a more positive direction than commenting here. Improve an aspect of your life as opposed to attempting to tear down another's. You might find yourself to be happier every morning.
Kevin Fleming agreed. I love completely different versions of a cover. If you haven't heard Brian Justin Crum cover Creep I highly recommend. Or Lemmy Kilmister Stand By Me. Love this!
Who the hell could NOT LUV this?? It was/is amazing!! Some ppl just cannot SEE..see beyond their “version” ...it is excellent...music & making music is magical . Transforming the mundane
Hallelujah my beautiful youth - how wonderful it was then. 😊 nice to hear and see this great song again. - Halleluja meine schöne Jugend - wie herrlich war das doch damals. 😊 schön diesen tollen Song wieder einmal zu hören und zu sehen.
What a fantasticv rendition. They are all brilliant musicians, the intro on the violin and throughout, the drummer and vocalist, the pipes, wow!! I had only ever heard the rock version by Thin Lizzy and the late great Phil Lynott. Will definitely seek out more of their songs.
Ah Roberta... that wicked little smile at the beginning there... Both a heart-melter and a warning. lol ( Trust me, fellas... that's not a woman you can handle, no matter how you kid yourselves. lol ) Truly my favorite version of this. Have to revisit it from time to time,just to remind me that I do have at least a bit of Irish blood running through my veins. I hope that at some point, the Killdares decide to come out of retirement, and remind us all of why we miss them so much.
"Devil take the women cuz they always lie so easy." I have known and loved this song since my childhood. This is a great version of it--just like me bro used to sing.
Profesjonalizm grupy potwierdzony mistrzowską grą na skrzypcach w wykonaniu Pani Roberty Rast. Aż miło posłuchać. Zdecydowanie najlepsza wersja tego utworu jaką znam. Pozdrawiam.
Well YES a great performance by all concerned, plus lets not forget the production camera work, following plus interpreting the Violinist was just poetry in vision; well they have another very pleased follower
Sept. ‘24…After hearing this band any the song I hunted down many more versions and there are more verses and different wordings but spiritually and emotionally this one takes first prize. Wish the entire(full)song was done by them. It’s a chore for a drummer keeping his pace and singing that long. All said….I still prefer this version but listen to many of them often.
Das Lied hat alles was ein Lied braucht, Freude, Melancholie, einen Text mit Sinn, ruhige Passagen und ein Refrain zum Abgehen. Thees einfach ein begnadeter Songwriter.
Loved the fiddle opener. Never heard fiddle so dark, almost hard rock. Whiskey In The Jar is a favorite song of mine and I wasn't as into the Killdares' version as I've been into others. It wasn't bad, just not my favorite. The opening fiddle though made the video totally worth it. Very cool.
oh my gosh...this song brings back memories...We used to hear it played by Off-Kilter at Disney World Epcot. When my grandma (who was SUPER proud to be Irish, btw) and my mama would go to Disney with us, they didn't ride the rides and couldn't take walking around in the heat, so they would either shop or sit in shady areas. At Epcot, they would watch Off-Kilter's shows back to back. This was one song I remember loving when I would stop riding a while and go to a show with them. My Gwam didn't make it to our 2015 trip and passed away about a month later. Haven't heard this song since at least 2011, the last trip Gwam came on. Was not expecting to cry today, but I guess I needed it.

On behalf of the people of Ireland, Your Quite Welcome!!! (Irish Citizenship through Grandparents ancestry!!) 🙂

Ashley Mac Isaac said pretty good
Alright. Large

Without music, life would be a mistake.
It would be a big void, but only in the case of such good music, because there is also a heavy commercial waste today.

You mean to tell me there are Irish folks in South Boston? LOL. "Local pub" is the key here. Not some franchise.
That intro, pure emotion, that smile, no one else can make a fiddle sing like that, it can only come from the heart. I could listen for hours.
Amen!
Bin ouais ! Y a mieux en Irlandais, y a le violon, allé, hin... 😂😊😢
❤
Oh yea , all of those classically trained orchestral string players with master's degrees & better , would obviously be totally useless with this tune !!! Only one born to the role can play it & do it justice !!!
Check out Otaba E Otava Yo……….
This intro is insanely good, Irish music speaks to the soul. Erin go bragh!
looks like Foogy Dew first movement

@Laurence O'Connor Hello from New Jersey.
One of the best live songs I have ever listened to...fact!❤
Yeah it is!!
@@susanamonds2252 I listen to this so often... and I always enjoy!
Something that goes for over 6 minutes and you don't want to turn it off. It's the sign of great music!!!
War noch nie in Irland, aber alleine die Musik 🎶 ist ein Geschenk 🎁!! Ich muss irgendwann mal auf die grüne Insel !!
×2
Das Mädel mit der Geige ist ein über Hammer, aber was soll ich sagen das ganze team ist der Hammer es ist schön solche super musik zu hören Danke an alle ^^
That intro, on the violin, makes the hair on my arms to stand at attention. My Goddddd! It's mental.
She is awesome!
The electrical storm around me went crazy.
Mr Showers.
It's your spirit.
Seen this performed by many bands, The Killdares are hands down, the best.
She rules the performance. OUTSTANDING. 👍❤🙏
Wicked version of this mighty classic. The Irish produce a fine beauty here
It's now Sept 2024.....great song and great performance !!!
What a great version of this amazing song.
A band like this feeds on people's energy, put down your phones, live the moment...rock out with the band.
Fantastic. My favorite version of this old Irish folk/rock classic. Brilliant intro great vocals and the fiddle is amazing.
you should listen to voodoo child do this song !
I'm getting goosebumps hearing this version of Whiskey in the jar
I cried, caused a flood.
Just brilliant!!
I'm from Dallas and saw them at the Granada. Great shows. They were a fixture at the Great State Fair of Texas for years. Won over many new fans there.
Intro = amazing! That wasn't a solo, that was pure emotion transmuted into sound. This lady rocks! Great performance by the whole band!
!!
Wonderful musicianship ! Nominally the Irish National Anthem, every Irish bar band does a cover, yet this group manages to breathe some fresh vigor and energy into it. Bravo !!
I wish good things like this would never end.
I do like others' versions of this song but this one wins my heart
New favorite version - they are really blowing the lid off
Same here . Must have played this vid 30 times since stumbling on it 2yrs ago . Awesome ! 👍
Wowwwww what a band my first time hearing them . They are just fantastic from the drummer to the lady playing the fiddle they could make their instruments talk .. The best version anyone could ever hear of this song . well done to all . Going to look to see can i see any more of this great band ..

Music will never be the same 😢,that is just outstanding
she makes the hair on my neck stand up! Her look, Her smile, and amazing good on the violin. she can work the crowd too!
Terry Roberson Fiddle! Not violin.
Terry Roberson She's better at than I.
Michael Wallace The difference being the arch's curve under the strings by the f-holes.
you said - about HER
She sounds pretty good to me at 4:51 on that fiddle
2021 & still watch this video a dozen times a week!👍✌😀🙌
Me to
Those are rookie numbers
The intro on this is sooooo GOOOOD that I can't find the words to describe how good it is.
They played at the Texas state fair religiously for years as I grew up and became proud to be half Scottish and half Bulgarian.
Saw them there several times my self I worked for Dr Pepper there and I always would make time to go watch these folks at least two times a day during the whole fair they are amazing live true musicians she gets down on the fiddle like no other
Well, here in CA, I must identify as "part" Bulgarian.....
astonishing, how much is still in in this song, after a few hundreds of years. GOOD ONE!
I want this song to still be here in my next life. Love it.
Great version, but I it left out two of my favorite versus.
That intro gets me EVERY TIME. My Dog, it's sooo magic and alluring
the intro is the sound one gets high from the sound love is made of the sound that permeates the soul to the core finds your heart and moulds it back to life keeps its beat !!!!!! i loved it
The violin intro on this is EPIC, it leaves me at least with the hairs on my neck standing up, it is haunting, melodic and for me one of the best intros ever. the rest of the performance is excellent.
Can't stop playing this song. Dammit.
Keep on doing such great work and music. You are very welcome. Even in old damned Germany. Yes we Huns are loving you! Thumbs up! Stay as you are. Kindest Regards. Christian
They can’t ... the band retired in November 2016 after 20 years of performing. 😢

Hey, Kevin, many of us are with you. Freedom of the music, or of self-expression in any way that's constructive, is why art exists.
Whew! Read that just in time! Just kidding...in agreement wholeheartedly!
Kevin Fleming Indeed Kevin.
Kevin Fleming agreed. I love completely different versions of a cover. If you haven't heard Brian Justin Crum cover Creep I highly recommend. Or Lemmy Kilmister Stand By Me. Love this!
No need to justify or be an apologist Kevin, everyone is entitled to their opinion.

Roberta is AMAZING, and the whole band.
Creativity is alive and well here.😊
LOVE that dark melancholic intro. Unusual to hear a fiddle used so well with effects for such a superb ... effect.
so was von schön gespielt , meinen Respekt .
Incredible rendition of a wonderful song. Lady, you owned that violin and brought it to life.
just ran across this and I'm glad I did it was awesome
What a stage presence that girl has...WOW !!
You guys are amazing I wish I would have seen you sooner, god bless
What a pity, I would have loved to hear this song live on stage. It's simply ingenious...!!! 💪🏼🖤
Thank u Lord fer these Beautiful sounds made manifest.

Hallelujah my beautiful youth - how wonderful it was then. 😊 nice to hear and see this great song again. - Halleluja meine schöne Jugend - wie herrlich war das doch damals. 😊 schön diesen tollen Song wieder einmal zu hören und zu sehen.

Maybe not a woman one can 'handle' but there are worse hills to die on than that one.
@@jmoney0303 - Having already been on a few of those "other hills", all I can say is... you're right. 😁
"Devil take the women cuz they always lie so easy." I have known and loved this song since my childhood. This is a great version of it--just like me bro used to sing.
Best version ever!
Aye this is a great version of a timeless old classic, "Stand and deliver or the devil will take ya"
Totally with you, man...
I had the good fortune to see the Killdares on several occasions, all them fine music and good times.
Woooooowwwwww, das ist so was von Geil!!
This begin drives Ever Tears in my Eyes...
I miss watching you all perform , such greatness! XO
One of my favourite songs👌😍😍😍🇦🇺❤️❤️❤️
Be better if he sung the correct words..
One of the best marching songs I've ever heard.
I have watched this video several times and I love how she plays the violin.
Sends shivers down my spine with that opening violin!!!

Lead guitar played on a violin...lovely, many thanks for putting this on cheers.
I love blues, rock, real country, some metal. But? From USA? Her string work makes this the best. 🤔❤🙏💚
Roberta Rast is the Goddess of the violin!! Nobody does it like she does!!
She is amazing, but I can honestly say I have heard dozens of other songs performed by other violinists the world over who play as well...
Well YES a great performance by all concerned, plus lets not forget the production camera work, following plus interpreting the Violinist was just poetry in vision; well they have another very pleased follower
Pink Floyd
Mike Ford: Good point about the camera work. Really sets the mood. I love everything about this production!
Absolutely love it . This is my music
Absolutely love the violinist. What a performance.
Been done by a lot of Folks. This one is my Favorite!!!

Superb! The best version I'v ever heard.
Greets from Poland.
Cheers
Love the beginning bit awesome. 👌
This version leaves me speechless!
What a performance ❤️ What a band 🎶🥁🎸🎤
I love the whole song, but that intro is something else. So haunting... wow!
THAT is some fine fiddling- and you HAVE to love the guy playing the pipes!
Great intro and also what a great version of Fields of Fire as well.
First time seeing and hearing these people. Wow! The violinist is darn good, along with being easy on the eyes.
The band is just meh, but the violinist is superb!
nice update. well presented. excellent blend of modern arrangement with a very traditional vocal.
Amazing--a superb version
And that intro is mesmerizing.
Incredible it was.
I remember being there like it was yesterday. Perfection.
Loved the fiddle opener. Never heard fiddle so dark, almost hard rock.
Whiskey In The Jar is a favorite song of mine and I wasn't as into the Killdares' version as I've been into others. It wasn't bad, just not my favorite. The opening fiddle though made the video totally worth it. Very cool.

amazing to sing and drum at the same time. respect
Loved this song. Was shocked when found out their are from Texas. Then looked up the drummer and found he is from nere my home town.
That... was killer. Never heard of these folks, but I sure have now!
wow! pure quality👌 pure celtic 🍀 still mind blowing✌
The violin in the first two minutes is transcendental, wonderful.
Thought it was a little dragged out, would've been better shorter.
My god that stirred my soul, that was spectacular
Wow, I have never heard this song before, it's amazing. Violin plays the intro sounds really well. You guys are fantastic. 😄👍👏🤙🤙🤙💙❤💚
Så sant hälsningar från Sweden
I really like d the intro. Haunting and longing.
I seem to always be late to the party. 11 years late unfortunately here . this is just fricking amazing to watch and listen to.
Haters should get over themselves, this is pure awesomeness!
I love how, after the serious intro, she breaks into a smile and loosens up.
Dayum, this is fantastic, cant believe I havent heard of these guys before
these ?Aussie convct rock ! th-cam.com/video/jSDX_IggheI/w-d-xo.html
