I do civil war reenacting and I'm part of the Irish Brigade. My Aunt and Uncle made it a tradition to listen to this song and other Irish songs on the way to events. This is probably my favorite.
I heard this a week ago on Pandora while working, I was laughing rediculously the whole time but after couldn't find it anywhere. I'm so glad I finally found it! This is awesome!
My wonderful friend who introduced me to this version has just passed, bless his heart. Had to give a play for him. God bless your heart Mooney, you will be missed
So I'm not allowed to listen to this at work because according to my boss, I look like a sociopath about to shoot up the place when I'm trying not to burst out laughing.
Zod, this version of this song is hilarious. I can be in the worst mood ever, and this will always make me laugh. God bless Darby O'Gill. A fine bunch of gentlemen.
This is actually the version from the album "Waitin' For A Ride" not "Driven To Drink" as advertised. I'm buying the right album this time, but it would have been nice to get the right one the first time. There's more audience, and more audience participation lines in "Driven to Drink" like duck calls when the guy "ducked his head." All in all, I'm glad to buy both albums from an independent sales site because the band gets more of the dollars that way.
I’d love to know what he says right after the song ends (he says it after several songs)...something like, “how was the old one” to which the people say something...
I want to get the live version of this off of the Driven To Drink (Live) cd...its so much better to have the crowd be the ones saying the spoken lines and do the clapping
@chemzen You can find all of Darby O'Gill's CDs for purchase on their website, Just Google Darby O'Gill band and you'll find it. Try the live CDs, they're hilarious
My upbringing tells me I shouldn't be amused by this...but I was cracking up the whole time! Is there something wrong with me, or are the artists just that talented?
I believe it's "How was your one" and the crowd responds "Dream on" as a reference to the book 'Finnegan's Wake' that basically takes place in a dream.
Can you put up more Darby? The only way I can find them is on Pandora; it's irritating to log in, listen to one song, then log out for an hour, and then log back in to trick Pandora into playing another Darby song...
I'm a day early but it's great to see ya'll again! Happy St. Patty's 2024!

Same. It's copyrighted in a way that only allows it to be played on radio rather than request
Same 🤣

I love this version, especially the comments the band members make. I laugh every time.
So I'm not allowed to listen to this at work because according to my boss, I look like a sociopath about to shoot up the place when I'm trying not to burst out laughing.
This will always be my favorite version of this song. :)

Ahh, he loved to lick her, he did.
The Irish Rovers version is way better.
Zod, this version of this song is hilarious. I can be in the worst mood ever, and this will always make me laugh. God bless Darby O'Gill. A fine bunch of gentlemen.
Best version I've ever heard! 🤣☘️💚
Thank you so much for uploading this. Just realized this was missing off my Spotify playlist and haven’t been able to find it anywhere. Too much fun
This is by far my favorite version of this song.
This is like the Mystery Science Theater of Irish folk music.
Absolutely. Have you checked out Rifftrax or Cinematic Titanic yet?
I love this song! It’s just so much fun to listen to and sing
Who couldn't say that this is a perfect version of this song
"It was woman to woman and man to man......aye that's the way Tim liked it"....

I would love to see them someday , tell them hi for me will you?

@Larz Mettler paddy* short for Pádraig 😉
If you picture what happening this song becomes ten time more amusing.
Ay! That's the way Tim liked it!
Great song. Nearly peed myself the first time I heard this.
I love the commentary in the background, LOL!

These guys are hilarious!
That's the way TIM liked it!
This is amazing.
Great damn song. CHEERS!!!
Thanks for posting this!
I used to watch them at the local pub every Saturday; till the pub was pulled down
Right on their website browse through their music and you will find their albums.
They have their entire cd on their website. It's downloadable.
That's alcohol abuse, where I come from...
No shit, Sherlock.
Magster It's part of the song arsehole.
Its called bein Irish :p
sad but true, we love our whiskey
But still no throwin' the whiskey!
KingZapapple (in brogue) Irishmen aren't drunks!!!!! How dare ya!! Who took my bottle?

This is just perfect .
“‘Bout time he got engaged!”
“This song; as most of our songs, has nothing what ever to do with squirrels:(and this time we mean it.)
Great song, wish I was Irish :))
Show me the real finnegan's wake
TH-cam show the high kings version
I said the real finnegan's wake
TH-cam shows this
PERFECTION
Haha this is amazing!
Do these guys still preform? I’d love to see them live but like where?
I’d love to know what he says right after the song ends (he says it after several songs)...something like, “how was the old one” to which the people say something...
let us all have a moment of silence for the 90 empty seconds.
Now that's a position we've all seen her in many times before under more "favorable" circumstances. LMAO
I want to get the live version of this off of the Driven To Drink (Live) cd...its so much better to have the crowd be the ones saying the spoken lines and do the clapping
"Yeah, both of them!"
it's funny because i'm drunk
BIG HOD....
WRONG SONG!!!
I didn't understand this joke until I bought their album.
I want the full lyrics to this. I've heard love versions in s pub that's hilarious

*He bounced!*
_O O F_
He bounced!
@chemzen
You can find all of Darby O'Gill's CDs for purchase on their website, Just Google Darby O'Gill band and you'll find it. Try the live CDs, they're hilarious
Can't stop laughing....

Has anyone been able to find the beer song medley?
I see this comment is 3 years old, But in case you haven't noticed, Beer Song Medley is now hanging around on TH-cam, A search should bring it up.
Seamus Kennedy / the barley mow
What is the phrase he says at the end of all the songs?
good song
My upbringing tells me I shouldn't be amused by this...but I was cracking up the whole time! Is there something wrong with me, or are the artists just that talented?
Love.
Live was the best!
Right in the middle of the street, he was homeless!
I have to get a hard copy if I want this on my iPod don’t I
...he bounced
he bounced
Who's still listening?
It wasn't the fall that killed him. It was that sudden stop at the end!
Why isnt this on Spotify?!
What is the name of the song the big hod reference is from. It's stuck in my head now but i can't find it.
Where? I can't find it anywhere.
I have to know; what do they say at 3:28 and what does the crowd respond? They say this in a few songs and I can never understand it!
I believe it's "How was your one" and the crowd responds "Dream on" as a reference to the book 'Finnegan's Wake' that basically takes place in a dream.
What do they say at the end?? I have to know! 3:28
I know I'm a bit late, but I've uploaded the live (Pandora) version if you're interested.
@123456789987654324 I am in love with this band. Can I find their cd where?
Bout time he got engaged
"Big Hod!" "Wrong song" anyone know what this is a reference to?
nope, what is it?
+Timothy Owens I wish I knew :)
+Zackary Breeding thanks!
+Zackary Breeding awsome! thanx zack!

Can you put up more Darby? The only way I can find them is on Pandora; it's irritating to log in, listen to one song, then log out for an hour, and then log back in to trick Pandora into playing another Darby song...
