- Mick Hanly is an extraordinary singer / songwriter and a mighty performer. What a night at Jimmy Crowley's Cork Folk Club live at the Windsor LV. Video recorded by Carol Rice
I've been listening and going to Mick Hanly gigs since the 70s. The man is a true Irish music legend. Keep writing, singing and stay well Mick Hanly.
Oh Mick, thank you for this song & Hal too for picking it up. I feel like you "saw" the man I loved & who loved me so well. My man crossed over, and my heart is past the point of rescue-but this song sustains me, oh yes....can't wait to hear more of you, Mick.
I think this song is one of the finest written. Hal Ketchum's cover was my introduction to it, years ago. I just accidentally discovered Mick's today, and intend to spend time today, discovering more of Mick Hanly's songs.
Love the song but love the Cork flag that little bit more
I agree. It’s really one of the greatest songs of all time.
Find more songs with Mick and Moving Hearts live.
But this is the original version my friend as Mick is the one who wrote the song which is performed by so many :) so hence this will always be the best version :)
Absolutely the original is the best! One of my favorite songs with MANY covers on youtube. My favorite cover is by Meincartman on YT. I think it really captures the sound and feel of the original. I might be partial, but I've listened to a bunch of covers of this great song. Thanks to Mick H!
The Norwegian version is called "Krasafaren Steinbu" and is about a hunter who gets lost on the mountain in bad weather and finds refuge in a rickety shack he stumbles upon. =)
In 1978 I visited Norway with a troupe of Irish dancers.I was 14.We stayed in host houses.My childhood friend and I stayed with a family who insisted we didn't leave the door open because the beloved family cat may escape.Yes,that happened.We couldn't really understand the abuse in Norwegian we got for leaving the door open.That friend died last summer.Its funny how music can affect the brain.Or relate to another life experience.Thats my story of Norway.From Ireland to Norway,no hard feelings.We had a wonderful time many of us had never been outside Ireland back then.☘️
Thanks for the upload. I love Hal Ketcham's version of this song, but it was gold to see the songwriter perform it!!!
The thematics of the Norwegian version is about being finding shelter after being lost for a long time in harsh weather. Tells a story about I man gone hunting, not being able to find his cabin, and at the point of giving up, he eventually comes across it - Which is the Chorus. "Then I finally came a cross a wiggly little hut, One wall crumbling, roof just as bad. Freezing cold, body shaking, but above all, I was glad" It´s one of the Hellbillies`greatest hits TODAY, played on every live show.

Hellbillies: «Krasafaren steinbu» (Dialect for a stone hut, party falling apart).
Mary Black is a great singer but Mick Hanly sings this with the true feeling it deserves, top class performance!!
Tom Greene:
Let's hear the great story about one of his royalty cheques from the States! Please.
Hearing this great song performed by the author, for the first time, is such a treat. but.... I couldn't help think to myself... ever wonder what a bunch of drunks singing karaoke sounds like? Here you go, as Mick graciously invites the audience to join in. These song lyrics have haunted me, since first hearing, but more than ever having lost two loves of my life (wives) one to death and the other to divorce. I just now awoke from a dream in which the second visited me, bigger than life. This has been a regular event for me, going on for all these years. Can't seem to shake the deep love I still feel for each of my former wives. I was blessed to have had each in my arms for the time I did. Blessing's to all the sentimental people out there.
the second? the second what? wife? maybe her name would be more suitable
@@stephencoveney4269 Yeah, the second wife divorced me, unfortunately. Her name is Krista and she has been out of my life since 2005. She had been divorced before, so I knew it could be tough to hold her, especially with each of us having two children from our previous marriages. Oh well nothing ventured was my attitude and she was a lot of fun for 5 years at least.
Thank you for posting this! Wonderful to hear the songwriter! I just wish the idiots in the background weren't talking...
Great song 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
thank you! thanks for an amazing performance and for writing one of me all time favorite songs. You truly rock!!
This song resonates with me -- but many versions are too 'produced' the only real version is Mick with his guitar -- and Mary Black
Am I past the point of rescue ?
My mom had this cassette, so I feel grateful to have grow up with the original. It was always one of my favorite songs, even though I could only truly understand its meaning (and brilliance) in maturity.
Thank-you for writing that song . I heard it by Hal Ketchum First and loved it ever since. I am learning how to play it. Awesome Awesome Song.
Learning how to play it. Theres nuttin to learn. Its a simple great song. It should just come to ya. Ffs. Some fukkin people.tch
fantastic song I love it,great original from the man.
Neil Byrne singt dieses Lied auch.Es ist ein schöner Song
Hellbillies - Krasafaren Steinbu - Live Rockefeller 2013
My favorite! Thank you Mick Hanly - you are extraordinary.
thanks for the great video, I didn't know who had wrote it
This song is recorded in Norway, by a group called Hellbillies, And the song is KRASAFAREN STEINBU.
i like that he's making fun of my Country's known version of it called "Ei Krasafaren Steinbu" which was written by the Hellbillies, which is a norwegian band, and that is the version of this song i grew up with. but the original is so much better, and i have to say, Mick sings it perfectly.
Well said I agree with your verdict on that 😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎💏💏💏💏💏💏💏
Simply classic!!! It reminds me of my uncle Mick (also Hanley but not half as cool as this git!!!) Still miss Mick Hanley a (tiny) but lol - he'd knock 19 colours of shit out of me lolol
This is the one you're thinkin of?
Well, here's the Norwegian version... not about a goat... but it's great, and REALLY popular in Norway.. "Hellbillies, Krasafaren Steinbu"
Mick is a troubadour who doesn't mind being labelled as such he is a grand Lad so he is...
Love this song and the performer, for many years. One of the best ever written. Well done Mick. True Legend.

But why cant he admit that one Norwegian ban made the best one☝🏽
Mick's appearance on the late late show with Ryan Tubridy last night, brought me here. Great job Mick take care.
I love to listen to the writer sing his/her own song because I hear/feel exactly what was intended. Its a beautiful song and even better now that I have felt what you intended. Thank you. Best version ever!

Mick:
Goat, sheep, or lemming trapped in a gorge - beyond the point of rescue - an object of mirth? I don't think so. Not funny.
It's so funny because he did not write this song at all, but he makes people believe he did.
Yes he did
He did write it, what are you talking about?
