He will never be forgotten, his star still shines down on us. I will love him forever❣️
So true.🤘
Well said x
I've just turned 63 and I've followed Phil and Lizzy since 'Whiskey in the Jar'', so that makes it ........a bloody long time!
Never tired of listening to his songs and very importantly, his words.
Like most things to do with Phil and Lizzy his lyrics are so heartfelt, real and at times cheeky but very clever.....who else has a song which rocks out and mentions the band members as you sing along (Chinatown, 'Having a Good Time'), absolutely brilliant.
Anyway, IMO, no-ones matched him........and never willMr
Cheers
Well said!!
Philo = God
Masterpiece, heard it on the morning radio first, at the age of 12..
I searched for it, but failed..
Did'nt know the lyrics, only the melody seemed to follow me everywhere..
Until i found the song here..
Rip Phil Lynott.
phill one of the best ever bass players singers song writers ever
This song absolutely tears me up - just so emotional
Phil. You are the best. Keep rockin` in heaven with Gary and Lemmy. R.I.P.
What a song :)
- I cry whenever I hear Philip's voice. It's been like this since 1986. Should I go to the doctor? / I'm a grown up Man, 53 years old.
Go to the doctor immediately
I am older than you and still cry sometimes when I hear his voice. I just don't understand how he could be so incredibly talented. No music touches me as much as Thin Lizzys.
I'm 47 Californian feel the same
Been a Lizzy fan since 17
I couldn't imagine how I wout be if I had not been a T.L "supporter".. if there's a Heaven Philip I wanna meet you and your mum
@@TheGreatAlan75 and you claim to be a fan Lizzy troll vagabonds just ok showdown better junior
You are not alone.
Such a genius, so sadly missed.
Followed thin lizzy all my life..phil lynott was a one off..a legend..brilliant band..ive just returned from Dublin nov 2023..visited his statue then travelled out by bus to st Fintan,s cemetery to visit him at his grave..so glad we did..rest in peace Mr lynott your music will last for ever..❤❤

He's one fucking cool dude! I'll keep playing Phil's music until the day I die.
Strange video doesn’t need the girl. This should have been a big hit. Phil’s vocals and Darren’s superb piano ❤

Great to see Phil again and my favourite solo single from The Philip Lynott album. RIP Philo.
Genius
This was the first time I saw Phil , as an almost13 year old youngster back then he touched my heart with this song , almost 16 years on January 4th 1986 he broke my heart with an in the Papers he had died , He 's my one true hero and will remain so....
Pretty sure that's Darren Wharton on piano.
Phil had charisma and talent. So sad to see him go too soon.
Darren, yes
Espectacular 😊
une très belle chansons...comme d'habitude avec Phil lynott..
a legend
I don't know why I'm still sad listen 😔 to this song
No you only think your sad put it on again it does that to you next time it will make you smile 😇
That piano solo is so dope!
I truly appreciate this version , so much emotion , such a shame Phil is no more !!!!
philip parris lynott great compositor amazing ,R.I.P.
Sure miss you Phil now you're not around oh la bless him
God bless you Philip your the best love you always rest warm in sweet love and your lovely ma too xxx
Pure genius
*These are the lyrics as sung in the video / song. Slighty different from the Corrs version :-)
The girl's a fool, she broke the rules, she hurt him hard
This time he will break down
She's lost his trust and so she must know all is lost
The system has broke down
Romance has broke down
This boy is cracking up
This boy has broke down
She plays it hard, she plays it tough
But that's enough, the love is over
She's broke his heart and that is rough
But in the end he'll soon recover
The romance is over
This boy is cracking up
This boy has broken down
This boy is cracking up
This boy has broke down
(Piano part )
I've been spending my money in the old town
It's not the same honey, wenn you're not around
I've been spending my time in the old town
I sure miss you honey, now you're not around
Now you're not around this old town
Ola
(Trumpet solo)
This boy is cracking up
This boy has broken down
This boy is cracking up
This boy has broke down
This boy is cracking up
This boy has broken down
This boy is cracking up
This boy has broke down >> Fade

One of the best. Missing
O my god this guy is amazing it 1 o clock in the morning and I can’t stop listening to tin lizzy this music is brilliant
RIP Phil.
Your the Best❤
SUPER!!!
Linda música ❤️❤️
Legend
I thought this was a Corrs song? Did Phil write this? It's like Sara off the Black Rose album, a superb pop song.
He sure did
Great
Still wearing his classic hightops.
RIP Legend
Pure black-irish talent
Philo really made something of his appearance on Dutch Toppop? And where's Ad Visser?
That would be Gus Curtis with the bass on, Philips right hand man back den .....
BETTER VIDEO THAN OTHER ONE IN DUBLIN.
BOYS WERE REALLY CRACKI'N UP WATCHING
PHIL "PRETEND" TO PLAY THE HORN PART. LOL.!!
RIP BIG MAN.
30 YEARS ON
THIS SONG NEEDS RE RELEASED.?
Jack Frost I adore the one in Dublin. I think it's aged so well an he looks so cool, such swagger. Then when he nods to the camera an walks down the marina... it's like he's saying farewell. Gets me every time :)
@@mariannyhan4930 exactly well said
@@mariannyhan4930 you mean when he walks down the South Wall towards the Poolbeg Lighthouse🤩
Brilliant. Like many people (probably) I thought the Corrs wrote this for so long because it seemed to suit them so well. Sad that I think Phil only got to about no 47 in the charts with it really when in many ways it's the most perfect rock ballad ever. And it has both the trumpet solo (which gives depth to the Corrs version along with Caroline's violin), and this has a fantastic piano solo, it is better than the Corrs cover overall...though Phil's voice was perhaps not the best in places. The piano solo is incredible (I'm a pianist) and can't replicate those arppegios in thirds to save my life....would take a good classical pianist. Must be at about 140bpm!
The piano solo is amazing...recorded with 2 pianos & tempo sped up , that is why is so hard to play!
@@frankoconnor3613 looks like a single pianist playing on Top of the Pops but must be overdubbed. I know Ten used two in their version.
This should've been a huge hit it's a great song
Do you know what, I’m not sure he’s actually playing that trumpet (flugelhorn).
this version sounds exactly like the recording, so I'm not sure *anybody* on that stage is actually playing any instrument. Miming to a recording was a common practice after all.
@@Korn1holio British sarcasm 👍
@@Korn1holio Top of the Pops was infamous for it, man
He is not playing it. Just a prop for a music video. He didn't play any horns. Doesn't take away from his musical genius though. This man was loaded with talent. I miss him every day.
Everyone mimed on Top of the Pops back then
At 0:46 you can see the bass player to the right oh phil
at least he used the the right trumpet lol
They just dont make em like this anymore.
Who is playing the bass?
Ah, this is the origin of The Corrs it's version, didn't know this.
yea, kudos to them for helping me (and many others) to discover this.
No,it,s not Jimmy. I have meet both Phil and Jimmy so I know it's not him. I think this clip is from German or a Dutch TV, mamy it's just someone who happend to bee arond. On Piano is of course mr. darren Wharton
This is from Dutch TV , check wikipedia Toppop ,
i watched this show from 1974 till the last episode !!!!
Darren Wharton from Manchester Phil used to spend a lot of time in Manchester as his mum ran the hotel in Whalley Range where all the showbiz entertainers used to stay he knew the Quality Street chaps who frequented the all-night bar they were the inspiration for the Boys are Back in Town and Phil wrote a song about a couple of them Johnny the Fox meets Jimmy the Weed.
one eye covered there phil.
hmmmm..interesting.
The absolute bollocks.
This song is for my ex wife
Great song. Utter nonsense video.
Worst videoclip ever 😂
It's from an episode of the long running UK pop music TV program Top of the Pops all the bands and artists mimed to their songs back then
