I have to say I still don't understand a word when I have the lyrics in front of me. It feels like he's just garbling every other syllable. Still love it, though.
If I Should Fall from Grace with God Lyrics If I should fall from grace with God Where no doctor can relieve me If I'm buried 'neath the sod But the angels won't receive me Let me go, boys Let me go, boys Let me go down in the mud Where the rivers all run dry This land was always ours Was the proud land of our fathers It belongs to us and them Not to any of the others Let them go, boys Let them go, boys Let them go down in the mud Where the rivers all run dry Bury me at sea Where no murdered ghost can haunt me If I rock upon the waves No corpse shall lie upon me It's coming up three, boys Keeps coming up three, boys Let them go down in the mud Where the rivers all run dry

So happy you reacted to this song! Really cool combination of influences resulting in a 'folk punk' vibe that was way ahead of its time, and led to bands like Dropkick Murphys and Flogging Molly 🍀👍
@@jeremybentham9891 Lacks the intensity of the one that ended up on the album. Also, some of the lyrics are slightly different. No "Comin' up threes" in the final chorus, for example. Still excellent, though. The Pogues were great even on their worst day.
Lex's reaction as it starts. This is exactly me whenever I listen to any song by this fantastic band. I can only think of three other bands that have that impact on me. B52's, The Lyres and DMZ. And Lex. Never loose that smile.
Some other Pogues songs definitely worth a listen are "A Pair of Brown Eyes" and "Dirty Old Town". Actually, pretty well everything on the _Rum, Sodomy, and the Lash_ album is good. The album this particular song is from, also called _If I Should Fall from Grace with God,_ also has a lot of good songs on it. It has a lovely Christmas song called "Fairytale of New York".
If I should fall from grace with god where no doctor can relieve me If I'm burried beneath the sod where no angels can receive me let me go... This land was always ours twas the proud land of our fathers It belongs to us n them & not to any of the others let em go... Bury me at sea where no murdered ghost can haunt me If I rock upon the waves no corpe can lie upon me let me go boys. banjo, acordian, drums, bass, guitar - very zydeco! I saw them 20 + times & Lex, you're a Pogue for sure. Original name was Pogue Mahone which is Irish for 'stick it up your ass'. If you manna react to any others, try Sally Maclennane.
The Pogues at their absolute peak, many have said this already but the album is a masterpiece. This is a different version of the song slightly slower than on the album. Wonder how Shane is doing, hopefully he´s ok.
Good ear, Lex. Zydeco/Cajun music has Irish music influences. Same with bluegrass country music, fast fiddle and banjo music. Came from Irish roots. The Pogues were a folk punk, Celtic rock band. Dropkick Murphys is another group of the same style.
Check out Fairytale of New York also, a modern Christmas classic... The Pogues with Kirsty MacColl. And then check out Kirsty MacColl's 'England 2 Colombia 0' th-cam.com/video/HIIixmqtn0o/w-d-xo.html
The tune called "Medley" from the album If "I Should Fall From Grace with God" is my favorite tune by The Pogues. It's a Medley of 3 traditional Irish folk songs. Such a wicked tune
Shane is saying if he's no longer in God's good graces when he dies, and the angels won't receive him, just let him lie in the auld sod of Ireland and that'll be good enough for him. Sounds like an earlier version, still good though.
Finally, The Pogues!! You should react to possibly the best song about the arc of a relationship ever written, "Fairytale of New York" with Kirsty MacColl or their cover of "Miss Otis Regrets" also with Kirsty. Another one I always go back to is "Bottle of Smoke"; not for everyone but brilliant.
Wow, Shane would shed a tear of joy hearing the lady describe how it made her feel :D BTW, favorite songs: "Lullaby of London", "Medley: The Recruiting Sergeant / The Rocky Road to Dublin / Galway Races" or, "The Broad Majestic Shannon", to name a few.
Hey guys.... I decided to subscribe as I like the range of material you choose to react to. Both Kirsty and Shane have passed but their duet on Shane's composition will live forever. Shane is an Irish songwriting icon. I Would love to hear your reaction to another Irish icon: Imelda May. She is an amazing songwriter, singer, arranger, and producer. Her original material ranges from Rock-a- Billy (Johnny got a boom boom) to torch ballads (black tears) and fantastic covers like Kermit's "it ain't easy being green", U2s "still haven't found what I am looking for", or Les Paul and Mary Ford's "how high the moon" with the late, great Jeff Beck. Fair winds and Happy New Year.
Fairytale of New York, The Streets of Sorrow and the Birmingham Six. Dirty Old Town, Thousands are Sailing, and The Irish Rover are some other Pogues songs I really like as well. You should check them out. .
If I Should Fall from Grace with God is the third studio album by Irish folk-punk band The Pogues, released on 18 January 1988.[1] Released in the wake of their biggest hit single, "Fairytale of New York", If I Should Fall from Grace with God also became the band's best-selling album, peaking at number 3 in the UK Album Charts and reaching the top ten in several other countries.
I don't think that's right. What does this verse mean "This land was always ours, was the proud land of our fathers, it belongs to us and them, not to any of the others" ? I think the song is metaphorical. It's about the many troubles the Irish have endured including colonisation.
From the same album, "Fairytale of New York" is a beautiful, sad, Christmas song and "Bottle of Smoke" will have Lex couch dancing like a drunken banshee.
The Poguesssss hell yeahhhhh.. Saw them many times. He is a poet. Read the lyrics Brad. Try and the Band played Waltzing Mathilda (about WO1 and the slaughter of the Australians In Gallipoli) Or streams of Whiskey (about streams of whiskey)
In the early 1980's my climbing partner and I would drive west from Regina, Saskatchewan in a 1976 Chevrolet to Banff, Alberta or to the Columbia Icefields to climb. We would listen to The Pogues for hours and bounce like Lex. 40 years ago and yet this song still makes me happy. Cheers.
"I'm A Man You Don't Meet Every Day" is another very good song from The Pogues. They are actually more punk than most punk, too. We used to blast them along with Bad Brains, etc when we'd be out skating when I was in junior high. Good stuff.
The Body of An American is my favorite song of theirs. But it’s also because not only is it a great song, it’s played a few times in the Wire…which is the greatest show of all time.
If I should fall from grace with god, where no doctor can relive me. If I’m buried in the sand where no angels will receive me, let me go boys, leave me in the mud where the rivers all run dry.
Shane MacGowan also wrote "the dancing and the dreaming" from how to train your dragon 2. he LITERALLY pulled it out of a heap of papers in thecorner of his room and handed it to the producers, went "here, that should do ya"
I went to an elvis costello concert in about 1984 and was waiting for him outside to try to get him to sign something. This chick was sitting next to me for about 1/2 hour. When elvis came out she got in his car. It was his wife Cait orordian Who was elvis wife at the time. I never recognized her even though I was a big pogues fan. Elvis produced at least one of their albums and married their singer.
I know The Pogues won't have mainstream appeal on your channel, but you should still check out more of their music. They're so good. And, if not, I'll still look forward to a yearly St. Paddy's day song.
Pogues are the best at the traditional irish music - punk crossover genre. Give the Dubliners (with Luke Kelly on vocals) a try. They're the most famous Irish band singing these types of rebel songs. There's so much great music about the struggle of independance from the United Kingdom. Check out the live version of the song Black Velvet Band on youtube, with the whole crowd joining in.
Seeing them live is amazing. it's hard not sing along .listen to Dirty Old Town and my favorite Waltzing Matilda. Drinking music . also check out Fairy Tale of New York.
If you're on bit of a Celtic trip you could go for Scotland as well, try the Corries; Bonnie Dundee, Black Douglas, Westering Home, Glencoe Massacre. I'd love your take on them. And also more Irish as well, Dubliners, Irish Rivers. The song Botany Bays a good one
Put me in the ground and have a good time while you doing it.. Shane was a poet and the rest were bards so lucky to live on this earth with them for a brief time. We're all in the sod eventually Love Life as you have it till you kiss the bog :O)
This isn't the studio version, this was a live version they did for the BBC I believe. Other tunes to check out by them Pair of Brown Eyes, Rainy Night in Soho and Thousands Are Sailing. Shane MacGowan is the man X
It’s Celtic music in the Irish folk tradition . Celtic culture spans Ireland , Scotland and England and also parts of France such as Brittany. Zydeco partly draws from the French tradition of Celtic music thus the similarity.
Shane is a genius! His poetry, in years to come, will be studied in the same manner in which we study Yeats, Wilde and Keats today. Please try find the lyrics to his songs, you really can't appreciate them otherwise.
Go for more Pogues. And the lyrics. Shane MacGowan is a poet!
A rainy night in Soho is a Masterpiece btw.
Yeah, i love that song. It always makes me feel like shit, but in a good way...
Love the Pogues and the reaction. Please try "Sickbed of Cuchulainn", that's one of my fav Pogues songs.
I have to say I still don't understand a word when I have the lyrics in front of me. It feels like he's just garbling every other syllable. Still love it, though.
frankly that whole record front to back is the best
same. that and if i should fall from grace with god, a pair of brown eyes and fiesta.
If I Should Fall from Grace with God Lyrics
If I should fall from grace with God
Where no doctor can relieve me
If I'm buried 'neath the sod
But the angels won't receive me
Let me go, boys
Let me go, boys
Let me go down in the mud
Where the rivers all run dry
This land was always ours
Was the proud land of our fathers
It belongs to us and them
Not to any of the others
Let them go, boys
Let them go, boys
Let them go down in the mud
Where the rivers all run dry
Bury me at sea
Where no murdered ghost can haunt me
If I rock upon the waves
No corpse shall lie upon me
It's coming up three, boys
Keeps coming up three, boys
Let them go down in the mud
Where the rivers all run dry
So many magical tracks. Shane is a freak of nature. Makes Keith Richards look like a yoga instructor.
LOL!!! So true!
Nar.
Great comparison.
Thank you. Now I have whiskey all over my keyboard. Had a mouthful of it when reading your comment. Not good. 😄
That's a classic line and so true.
My personal favs of them are "Sally McLennan" and "A Pair of brown eyes"
"one summer evening, drunk to hell, i sat there nearly lifeless"
Sally McLennan!
Mine is probably lullaby of london
So good
You need to do The Irish Rover with The Pogues and The Dubliners. Old Irish golf classic punked up a bit.
If I should fall from Grace with God
Where no doctor can relieve me
If I'm buried 'neath the sod
But the angels won't receive me
Let me go, boys
Let me go, boys
Let me go down in the mud
Where the rivers all run dry
This land was always ours
Was the proud land of our fathers
It belongs to us and them
Not to any of the others
Let them go, boys
Let them go, boys
Let them go down in the mud
Where the rivers all run dry
[Instrumental]
Bury me at sea
Where no murdered ghost can haunt me
If I rock upon the waves
No corpse will lie upon me
Comin' up threes, boys
Comin' up threes, boys
Let them go down in the mud
Where the rivers all run dry
If I should fall from Grace with God
Where no doctor can relieve me
If I'm buried 'neath the sod
Still the angels won't receive me
Let me go, boys
Let me go, boys
Let me go down in the mud
Where the rivers all run dry
Yeah...
I'm an Irish man that stumbled on your channel and then tripped and fell in love with Lex. Hahaha....loved how the song made her feel.
So happy you reacted to this song! Really cool combination of influences resulting in a 'folk punk' vibe
that was way ahead of its time, and led to bands like Dropkick Murphys and Flogging Molly 🍀👍
Have to add, Lex's dance moves are on point :)
Thousands are sailing !!!
Worth noting that this is an early version that's a bit different than the one on the album.
I thought the tempo was a bit slower than I'm used to
oercent here.@@JahSoldierOmegaSound Probably a rehearsal outtake. They are going at like 90 percent here.
@@todwest tbh, it's better if you're trying to hear the lyrics and aren't yet used to the accent
@@jeremybentham9891 Lacks the intensity of the one that ended up on the album. Also, some of the lyrics are slightly different. No "Comin' up threes" in the final chorus, for example. Still excellent, though. The Pogues were great even on their worst day.
This is a demo version from a box set of that sort of thing, the name of which escapes me for the moment.
Lex's reaction as it starts. This is exactly me whenever I listen to any song by this fantastic band. I can only think of three other bands that have that impact on me. B52's, The Lyres and DMZ. And Lex. Never loose that smile.
Love the Pogues and The lyres. Lex always has great reactions
Zydeco is a direct descendent of Irish music. So much of the same time signatures and instruments
Some other Pogues songs definitely worth a listen are "A Pair of Brown Eyes" and "Dirty Old Town". Actually, pretty well everything on the _Rum, Sodomy, and the Lash_ album is good.
The album this particular song is from, also called _If I Should Fall from Grace with God,_ also has a lot of good songs on it. It has a lovely Christmas song called "Fairytale of New York".
The Broad Majestic Shannon always gets me.
Brilliant album, and best Christmas song ever.
Absolutely agree with both of these albums, favorites since first hearing. Fabulous musicians with a modern day poet in Shane. Great choice
If I should fall from grace with god where no doctor can relieve me
If I'm burried beneath the sod where no angels can receive me let me go...
This land was always ours twas the proud land of our fathers
It belongs to us n them & not to any of the others let em go...
Bury me at sea where no murdered ghost can haunt me
If I rock upon the waves no corpe can lie upon me let me go boys.
banjo, acordian, drums, bass, guitar - very zydeco! I saw them 20 + times & Lex, you're a Pogue for sure. Original name was Pogue Mahone which is Irish for 'stick it up your ass'. If you manna react to any others, try Sally Maclennane.
Póg mo thóin (pronounced like pogue mahone) = kiss my arse. Even better!
I thought it was " kiss my arse"?
Póg mó thóin (pogue muh hone) means kiss my arse..
@@victorbortolussi2964 it is

The Pogues were a folk punk, Celtic rock band. Dropkick Murphys is another group of the same style.
It's awesome to see you react to stuff I love but rarely get to share with people. You could seriously go down a rabbit hole with the Pogues.
Check out Fairytale of New York also, a modern Christmas classic...
The Pogues with Kirsty MacColl.
And then check out Kirsty MacColl's 'England 2 Colombia 0'
th-cam.com/video/HIIixmqtn0o/w-d-xo.html
I LOVE LOVE LOVE the Pogues!!! Thank your for this!
Totally reminds me of Zydeco as well; especially with the accordion and that sorta polka-like rhythm thing
Thank you, R.I.P Shane, thanks for your music
The tune called "Medley" from the album If "I Should Fall From Grace with God" is my favorite tune by The Pogues. It's a Medley of 3 traditional Irish folk songs. Such a wicked tune
My father is a great friend of Shane's 👍 he used to always drink in my town and sometimes had Johnny Depp with him
The Pogues are so good. "The Body of an American", "Old Main Drag", and "Transmetropolitan" are my faves.
Yay! The Pogues, they have so many amazingly great songs. If you are really brave try Truman's Water or Datblygu
Shane is saying if he's no longer in God's good graces when he dies, and the angels won't receive him, just let him lie in the auld sod of Ireland and that'll be good enough for him. Sounds like an earlier version, still good though.
That's true (earlier version), it's a bit slower and the lyrics are slightly different from the version on my copy of the album
Thought this sounded like a slightly tamer version!
Finally, The Pogues!! You should react to possibly the best song about the arc of a relationship ever written, "Fairytale of New York" with Kirsty MacColl or their cover of "Miss Otis Regrets" also with Kirsty. Another one I always go back to is "Bottle of Smoke"; not for everyone but brilliant.

The Pogues have so many good songs. Personal favs include Young ned of the Hill, Thousands were Sailing and Waltzing Matilda.
Fairytale of New York, The Streets of Sorrow and the Birmingham Six. Dirty Old Town, Thousands are Sailing, and The Irish Rover are some other Pogues songs I really like as well. You should check them out. .
The Pogues are a great band and Shane McGowans lyrics are pure poetry.
Haunted by Shane McGowen and Sinead O’Conner (another version is on the Sid and Nancy soundtrack) is an underrated song.
They were a polished outfit by their third album, then it went
Their first two albums were genius
Yay, Pogues! One of my favorites of theirs is "Love you til the end". Please react to more of their songs! 💜
Love the Pogues, my personal favorite is Dirty Old Town. I also really love Tuesday Morning, which isn't sung by Shane.
Agree
dirty Old Town....Salford...👍
Lex is not wrong - very strong Cajun / Zydeco influence in this song.
If I Should Fall from Grace with God is the third studio album by Irish folk-punk band The Pogues, released on 18 January 1988.[1] Released in the wake of their biggest hit single, "Fairytale of New York", If I Should Fall from Grace with God also became the band's best-selling album, peaking at number 3 in the UK Album Charts and reaching the top ten in several other countries.
The Pogues are a force of nature.
The song is about the singer wondering if, because of the things he's done, he's going to hell.
I don't think that's right. What does this verse mean "This land was always ours, was the proud land of our fathers, it belongs to us and them, not to any of the others" ?
I think the song is metaphorical. It's about the many troubles the Irish have endured including colonisation.
It's basically Irish folk punk. I love the Pogues. :)

Love these guys! My dad always gave them as an example of classic drunk Irish music
Yes, the Irish are good at music and drinking, unfortunately not at electing a government. Incidentally, they are not alone in the latter.
@@rudolphbondefangerer5513 definitely not alone there
This whole album is great and eclectic!
Love the Pogues!!! Great album
You can hear the lyrics better after you've had a couple of pints of Guinness or double Black bush whiskeys .
In the early 1980's my climbing partner and I would drive west from Regina, Saskatchewan in a 1976 Chevrolet to Banff, Alberta or to the Columbia Icefields to climb. We would listen to The Pogues for hours and bounce like Lex. 40 years ago and yet this song still makes me happy. Cheers.
You two should come to Ireland, you'd love a sesh lol
" Bottle of Smoke" has a lyrics video, may be next time
Their most popular song is by far Fairytale of New York (Christmas song), then probably The Pogues & The Dubliners - Irish Rover, Dirty Old Town
Check out Thousands Are Sailing
"I'm A Man You Don't Meet Every Day" is another very good song from The Pogues. They are actually more punk than most punk, too. We used to blast them along with Bad Brains, etc when we'd be out skating when I was in junior high. Good stuff.
Shane... A poet... His voice was love or hate, that was your decision. I loved it after I''d realised what he was on about!
Pogues..Pogue... just incredible. Check out their entire greatest hits. Epic.
You need a crash course on the turbulent history of the centuries long English occupation of Ireland to appreciate the sentiment of this song.
These guys are the best. Always loved the Pogues.
The Body of An American is my favorite song of theirs. But it’s also because not only is it a great song, it’s played a few times in the Wire…which is the greatest show of all time.
“ some songs just make you happy”. Well stated 😘
Not the original version, but still good.
If I should fall from grace with god, where no doctor can relive me. If I’m buried in the sand where no angels will receive me, let me go boys, leave me in the mud where the rivers all run dry.
RIP Shane macgowan ❤
Love The Pogues! Next try "Sunnyside of the Street!
Shane MacGowan also wrote "the dancing and the dreaming" from how to train your dragon 2. he LITERALLY pulled it out of a heap of papers in thecorner of his room and handed it to the producers, went "here, that should do ya"
I LOVE THIS SONG
So nice to see how she enjoys it❤
Damn kid, your wife is so adorable. You are a blessed man for sure. Good for you Brad!

The pogues are unique. The more you listen the more you realise 👍

I haven’t heard this great tune in a long time. I think the first time I ever heard this, was on a Tide commercial.
I know The Pogues won't have mainstream appeal on your channel, but you should still check out more of their music. They're so good. And, if not, I'll still look forward to a yearly St. Paddy's day song.
I'm from Glasgow, Scotland. I'd have to stop him every few sentences, and ask him to slow it down. Great song and reaction!
"Love You Til The End" my favorite by them. From the soundtrack to PS. I Love You🎬
Oh god I need a Guinness - Must have a Pavlovian response to hearing the Pogues...
Pogues are the best at the traditional irish music - punk crossover genre. Give the Dubliners (with Luke Kelly on vocals) a try. They're the most famous Irish band singing these types of rebel songs.

This was the wrong version guys.
Yes, and I bet Brad can't understand the slurring without lyrics
Seeing them live is amazing. it's hard not sing along .listen to Dirty Old Town and my favorite Waltzing Matilda. Drinking music . also check out Fairy Tale of New York.
If you're on bit of a Celtic trip you could go for Scotland as well, try the Corries; Bonnie Dundee, Black Douglas, Westering Home, Glencoe Massacre. I'd love your take on them. And also more Irish as well, Dubliners, Irish Rivers. The song Botany Bays a good one
Lex, I love you!
Shane and sinead haunted is a favorite of mine and others
Put me in the ground and have a good time while you doing it.. Shane was a poet and the rest were bards so lucky to live on this earth with them for a brief time. We're all in the sod eventually Love Life as you have it till you kiss the bog :O)
the Pogues are an Irish folk punk band from London and Manchester , check out their second album Rum, Sodomy and the Lash...excellent
Shane MacGowan has such a good voice!!! Such a fun band!!!
The London Irish at their finest, brilliant.
Fwiw the Pogues sit above the drunk sing along genre because they have a poet in their ranks. IMHO
The Pogues are possibly my favorite band. Check out Crock of Gold, the recent documentary on Shane MacGowan, he's led a wild life.
omgah!!!!! the pogues. lordy lordy.
This isn't the studio version, this was a live version they did for the BBC I believe. Other tunes to check out by them Pair of Brown Eyes, Rainy Night in Soho and Thousands Are Sailing. Shane MacGowan is the man X
Yeeeehaaaa cheers guys love it
Love The Pogues
Proper drinking music
Odd first choice-so many great songs. Oddly 'Hells Ditch' my fave Pogues album as written in Thailand and lived there most of my life
It’s Celtic music in the Irish folk tradition . Celtic culture spans Ireland , Scotland and England and also parts of France such as Brittany. Zydeco partly draws from the French tradition of Celtic music thus the similarity.
With a name like Williams you forgot Wales
Shane is a genius! His poetry, in years to come, will be studied in the same manner in which we study Yeats, Wilde and Keats today. Please try find the lyrics to his songs, you really can't appreciate them otherwise.
Body of an American and their version of And the Band Played Waltzing Mathilda are both hauntingly great songs from them.
Try reacting to "Dirty Old Town" my Pogues favorite.
great traditional Irish folk music..
