I'm 82 plus (smile)...and our first of 6 sons...wife named him Danny. Anyway, while in the hospital the morning he was born the local radio station called to congratulate and wanted to know if wife had a song request...and she requested "this" song. That was way back in 1959. My wife knew the popular songs quite well because her father whom she adored would set her on the top of a kraut barrel(?) and sing to her many of the then popular songs. She has sung many of them to me over the years! Awesome memory...huh?
6 sons wow!!! That is awesome. I have one brother. My dad had lots of brothers but they all are 6 feet deep. He is 84 and going strong but he is deaf and doesn’t use the hearing aids. Do you know why someone would not use this marvellous technology?
@@tdog5993 First, thanks for your reply! Re: hearing aids... I got spinal meningitis at age 4...lost hearing in one ear due to nerve dead...and only 35% in the other. I was in my late teens before first hearing aid for the one ear. They have helped over the years, but they're just that..."aids"...not the same as natural hearing. This year my wife and one son decided that I should get the latest technology...so now I have one over the one ear that just transmits the sound to the "good" ear and hearing aid/amplifier. It helps enough that I use them, but I still have problem with understanding spoken words clearly. If I increase the volume so that I feel it should be good, then, I get all kinds of "skreeching" sound that drive ya crazy...smile. I can understand why some don't want to deal with it...however, it does make others crazy...Grin!
@@sk8rjer wow thanks for the information. You are very respectful. Also it’s amazing that you were sick when you were 4 and you are still here ~78 years later! I definitely need to learn more about hearing aids. My dad’s look so cool honestly I want to try but my ears are great. My eyesight is very bad but of course I have glasses. Do you think I love wearing the glasses? Not always, but most of the time it’s ok. But I can’t live without them. So it’s not the same thing with these little things that you put in your ear(s)?

Just had my grandfather's funeral today. He died at 74 from cancer and was of irish blood but had only gone there once. He has three binders full of picture collages of that one trip. He was a wonderful father, husband, grandfather, friend, and man. Rest in Piece.
Danny Boy Oh Danny Boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling. From glen to glen and down the mountain side. The summer's gone, and all the flowers dying. 'Tis you, 'tis you must go, and I must bide. But come ye back when summer's in the meadow, or when the valley's hushed and white with snow. 'Tis I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow. Oh Danny Boy, oh Danny Boy, I love you so. But when ye come and all the roses falling, and I am dead, as dead I well may be, Go out and find the place where I am lying, And kneel and say an Ave there for me. And I will hear tho' soft your tread above me, and then my grave will warm and sweeter be. For you shall bend and tell me that you love me, And I will sleep in peace until you come to me.
Aloha Ruth Thompson. Thanks so much for providing the English lyrics to "Danny Boy." I just love this song so very much . "Danny Boy" touches my heart and soul. Even at age 76 yrs. old now, I always like to hear it sung and try to sing along with this posting. Robert S.J. Hu Dec. 9, 2018.
Wow my dad's been gone for 5 years 6 come December the 8th 😪 I feel.your pain I've just this second put it on just to bring him closer to me hope your ok
My Irish grandma would sing this from downstairs while cooking a ‘farmers dinner’ when I was on the loo as a child. An unforgettable memory I will treasure for we. Thank god I’m Irish
my uncle died a week today. his name was daniel. we all miss you uncle dan 💕 nanny will be playing this song for your funeral on the 16 nov. i hope you’re well up there x
I've played many versions of Danny Boy today. I always do every St. Patrick's Day. It is my favorite song. My youngest son Danny died at the age of 23 as a direct result of an accident he had at the age of seven. This is the version that touches my heart the deepest.
This and Orange juice were played at Grandad Stanley's funeral. He was such a great man and we had the same interests ( mining and things my county has invented ) and may he rest in peace
Beautiful, beautiful song and performance. My father was Irish & would play and sing this. Lost him 38 years ago but this song still brings floods of tears. It always will.
Iamb not Irish but it is such a beautiful song and I am ure it brins back so much to so many people, and remember yours tears are a sign of love awhich will stay with you forever.
I am so sorry and I know the pain you are going through. We never get over it, we just get used to it. I buried my wife on the 2nd day of 2015. This was her favorite song and was also played at her funeral. I have not been able to listen to it, just like you, for 6 years.
Mom's favorite song...I played this one,over and over beside her, for the past three days. She passed this morning. 80 years old...she fought cancer for the past 7 months. Mulligan by birth....she was true "fighting Irish". "No more pain" and "The dying only want, but a sip of water"...she would say in her final days. Rest In Peace, Mom...
My grandad died he loved this song I am going to dance to it in front of my whole family we all love him and miss him I am crying thanks for making this song ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😢😢
Some of the few good memories I have with my alcoholic father were with this song. It would play and he'd sing it word for word. I learnt the lyrics at a young age just to be able to sing it with him for brief happy moments where we did something together.
Hello!!! How are you doing today, please pardon me for intruding into your privacy but I just wanted to know if you’re a fan ? Have a great day… Stay Safe!
+moonsanimalslover I am sorry. My own beloved Danny Boy died the morning of the 4th of July. The pain you feel now is the happiness you had before. That's the deal.
this was my father fav song he died 27 years and he use to sing in the ktchen while shaving for going to the pub and this bring mermories back i miss my dad sooooooooo much he was mt best friend and the best dad he would do anything for me rest in peace dad xxxxxxxx

i have listened to this song for many years, and never tire of listening it, brings tears every time i hear it, i just layed my dauthter to rest, she got caught up in this terrible world of drugs,i miss her so, i pray for all parents who have to face this awful thing, daniel sings this song the best, it gives me peace to listen to it. thank you for playing it.
pat tudor hello Pat sorry to hear of your daughter's passing. I lost my daughter 😢 on 13th April 2020. She also got mixed up in the world of drugs. It has become surreal to me. Blessings to you and hope you are well.x
Yes me too! But I don't appreciate as I expect you would not either, of the comment someone said that all Irish people are alcoholics in their inherent ,so in other words every Irish person is a alcoholic and they can't help it! And I don't agree with that because I know it's nit true! And I take umbridge to it! And I don't know where she got her information from but it's wrong!!
@@lynndrowns4391 the truth is alot of us are. I say this as I scroll through TH-cam drunkenly but its rooted in emotion. We Irish are very closed off in general. And often times drink is an outlet for us to speak truthfully even if we may sound stupid at the time. Though there are some who are better than that and I'd Imagine that that is what you're grandparents must be like after reading your comment and as nice as that is to see. Many of us fit the stereotype
Don Stevenson To Ruth Thompson, thank you very much for the words to this beautiful song as Im somewhat hard of hearing in my old age, this meant a lot to me as I'm from Scotland and longing to go back.
Hello!!! How are you doing today, please pardon me for intruding into your privacy but I just wanted to know if you’re a fan ? Have a great day… Stay Safe
My father was a drunken violent man till my mom separated from him and with the help of my sister got a restraining order. While I grew up without a father, I will never forget the danger and suffering she faced to keep us safe. A parent’s job is to love their child unconditionally and sadly, some parents are incapable of giving love to their children. I’m sorry to hear you had to live with such a cowardly man. Nobody deserves such tribulation.
I have liked that song since I was a child. When he sings it I can hardly get past the first verse before I started tearing up. It is a beautiful song.
My grandma passed away a few weeks ago and just played this at her funeral such a beautiful song this was her favourite song I will always think about her now when listing to this beautiful song RIP grandma whenever I miss you I will come here and think of you ❤️
All the suffering of the Irish comes out in their music. This is the Irish manner of saying, still here, still Irish. Proud till death. A people worthy of respect!
My Grandmother tipped the singer in a fancy Italian restaurant $20 to sing this instead. He was a baritone and it was Epic. Beautiful when sang deeply.
Great Song ! Love it ! It's an old favourite of mine and Daniel sings a wonderful version ! Marvelous Video ! Thank you so much for sharing this fabulous upload ! 5*****+
Played at my dad's funeral and my late brother and he wrote to my mum and sent a vidio talk to her after loosing her son always be grateful to you Danny
My dad was born to Alice Murphey on March 17th 1928, and was named Joseph Patrick. I cant hear this song without tearing up . He was a good family man and loyal husband. RIP Joseph Patrick...

As Lawrence Welk would say, "Wonderful". The steel guitar in the band was like a breath of fresh air. This song has stood the test of time. The music world would call this a "standard" and it will be sung down through the ages.
when rose Marie sings this without music its Haunting and makes anybody cry special if you have a sun called Daniel who you never see at all ..All because I got married again Love this song ..😨
To all those in the comments who have lost someone, i can't think of a more lovely song to remind you of your lost loved ones.. Remember.. Always Remembered Never Forgotten God bless x
I remember my great uncle richard the third, wed listen to this song as we would eat chili and watch son of the mask, man i miss him, died a year ago from Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria, rest his soul
For some reason my primary school made us sing this song ( I live in Cornwall). At one point I knew all the words off by heart and would just sing it around the house because it’s just such a beautiful song. It had been almost 5 years since I had last sang it and had completely forgotten about it until today when my friend who went to the same primary school as me was randomly humming it and of course I instantly recognised it so it lead me here. The wave of nostalgia I got when I listened to it again was massive it almost made me cry because it made me think of how care free we were back then in primary school and just because of the meaning behind the beautiful song
o dedicato questa bellissima canzone al ultimo saluto del mio fratello,che a voluto tornare alla sua terra natia dove riposano i nostri padri e nonni,ciao Uccio...
@@tonymoore4174 il mio fratello Pavel/Paul Krusic nato a Sezana(slo) e partito nel lontano 1955 da Trieste per l'America come studente in chimica con la borsa di studio Fulbrigt, e arrivato con pocho denaro in tasca e poca conoscenza del inglese..ma con tanta volonta di sappere,conoscere ed imparare si e laureato a Berkley in chimica...poi a lavorato per 38 anni alla DU PONT come ricercatore a innovato e conseguito 7 patenti in chimica. si e fatto una bella famiglia due figlie e un maschio tutti bensituati e istruiti con vari diplomi...Paul parlava 5 lingue sloveno,croato,italiano,francese e inglese..di queste lingue conosceva bene la leteratura,storia ,Paul suonava il piano e amava la musica classica a molto viaggiato .e a 82 anni dopo un incidente banale (pulindo le gorne dalle foglie e caduto dalla scalla..) mori. La Sua volonta era di tornare nella terra natia,cosi lo abbiamo portato le Sue ceneri a casa dopo 62 anni e riposa vicino i suoi genitori ,nonni e bisnonni. Pace al anima Sua. cosi o dedecato questa bellissima canzone al suo funerale che e stata cantata da quatri cantanti sloveni acapella.
This was my Grandmother's favorite song that she played on the piano every Sunday evening after watching the Lawrence Welk Show on their little black and white TV. I would brush her hair...and now at 75 yrs old the memories bring a warmth to my heart as if it were yesterday. Miss you Grandma Edelburga Hansena Kristina Pedersen Honeycutt. 'Ebba' 🙂
I just lost my grandad and this was his favourite song. He sang it at every family gathering and will be played during his funeral. Im honoured to be a bearer and have no doubt I will break my heart when this song is played

Julia Goodman Yes,O'Donnel is a good entertainer,especially when teaming with Mary Duff.However,concerning his interpretation of" Danny Boy",he can't compare to Jim Reeves 's performance of the same song. I suggest you give it a try,you could very well change your mind after that.Good listening to all the mad about music who'd read this annotation.God bless you. J.C.....(from France).

Danny Boy
Oh Danny Boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling.
From glen to glen and down the mountain side.
The summer's gone, and all the flowers dying.
'Tis you, 'tis you must go, and I must bide.
But come ye back when summer's in the meadow,
or when the valley's hushed and white with snow.
'Tis I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow.
Oh Danny Boy, oh Danny Boy, I love you so.
But when ye come and all the roses falling,
and I am dead, as dead I well may be,
Go out and find the place where I am lying,
And kneel and say an Ave there for me.
And I will hear tho' soft your tread above me,
and then my grave will warm and sweeter be.
For you shall bend and tell me that you love me,
And I will sleep in peace until you come to me.

That's by far the best version of this song.
Andy williams's version is best
Very nice, but not Jacky Wilson.
Nice version.. and everyone has there favorite... Do yourself a favor, and listen to Bing Crosby sing this one.

Listen to the Roy Orbison version then it’s the greatest
This is the most beautiful rendition of this song I have ever heard. I can't listen to this song without crying.

@@patriciacolombini6567 No potatoes due to the potato blight all over Europe introduced via infected seed potatoes from the US
@@georgebarnes8163 no need for name calling George. Can't we all get on.?
“All the suffering of the Irish comes out in their music” This is an English song written by an Englishman in 1910 so think about “”their music”
My Grandmother tipped the singer in a fancy Italian restaurant $20 to sing this instead. He was a baritone and it was Epic. Beautiful when sang deeply.
11 years since grannie passed. this was her funeral song
heart wrenching, expressive rendition, how i iove this song!
When ever I listen to this I get a tear a tear in my eye, one of the best songs ever.
A very soothing song! Nice rendition too!
i miss my father!
Me too!
You will see him again one day. just trust in the lord.
This is so lovely and beautifully performed. This is one of my favorite presentations of ‘Danny Boy’.
Don’t know why but this song sends chills up and down my spine
Probably because you've had too much to drink

One of my favorite songs growing up in the country side in the 60's.
This version could very well be my favorite of all! Thank you!
Thank you so much for the history before this enchanting ballad-it makes it so much sweeter!
Hello!!! How are you doing today, please pardon me for intruding into your privacy but I just wanted to know if you’re a fan ? Have a great day… Stay Safe!
Almost moved to tears.
Beautiful. Great voice. Thanks for sharing
This song will be played and sung at my funeral, along with Dixie!
An outstanding historical song! Merci beaucoup for this incredible rendering from Paris France. Emmanuel
An old childhood favorite, written by an Englishman in 1913. Played on the piano by mom.

As Lawrence Welk would say, "Wonderful". The steel guitar in the band was like a breath of fresh air. This song has stood the test of time. The music world would call this a "standard" and it will be sung down through the ages.
when rose Marie sings this without music its Haunting and makes anybody cry special if you have a sun called Daniel who you never see at all ..All because I got married again Love this song ..😨
Patricia did the relationship heal?
This song's one of my grandfather favourite songs glad his is still with us just want to say happy Easter everyone
To all those in the comments who have lost someone, i can't think of a more lovely song to remind you of your lost loved ones..
Remember.. Always Remembered Never Forgotten
God bless x
What a lovely rendition.
Oh! What a touching rendition...Reminds my father whom I could not see in his last moments! God bless you, Daniel.
This song is dedicated to our friend/Cletus Walles who succumbed to Covid-19 today. Rest in Peace.
I remember my great uncle richard the third, wed listen to this song as we would eat chili and watch son of the mask, man i miss him, died a year ago from Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria, rest his soul
thats a fantastic rendition of a classic......
For some reason my primary school made us sing this song ( I live in Cornwall). At one point I knew all the words off by heart and would just sing it around the house because it’s just such a beautiful song. It had been almost 5 years since I had last sang it and had completely forgotten about it until today when my friend who went to the same primary school as me was randomly humming it and of course I instantly recognised it so it lead me here. The wave of nostalgia I got when I listened to it again was massive it almost made me cry because it made me think of how care free we were back then in primary school and just because of the meaning behind the beautiful song
Because it’s an English song written by an Englishman in 1910
o dedicato questa bellissima canzone al ultimo saluto del mio fratello,che a voluto tornare alla sua terra natia dove riposano i nostri padri e nonni,ciao Uccio...

@@tonymoore4174 I leeving in Slovenija near the border of Italy and the town Trieste.
@@verakrusic2231 Oh, I'm from Newark NJ, who's your favorite musician Vera?
This was my Grandmother's favorite song that she played on the piano every Sunday evening after watching the Lawrence Welk Show on their little black and white TV. I would brush her hair...and now at 75 yrs old the memories bring a warmth to my heart as if it were yesterday. Miss you Grandma Edelburga Hansena Kristina Pedersen Honeycutt. 'Ebba' 🙂
Today marks 6 years since my Grandad passed away, he was Irish and this was his favourite song; so now this means so much to me 🍀🥺😭💔
A heart touhing song. I like it.
I just lost my grandad and this was his favourite song. He sang it at every family gathering and will be played during his funeral. Im honoured to be a bearer and have no doubt I will break my heart when this song is played
Oh! What a very beautiful old song? Gosh! Sounds absolutely great.
Hello!!! How are you doing today, please pardon me for intruding into your privacy but I just wanted to know if you’re a fan ? Have a great day… Stay Safe!
I'm from Nagaland India ,,,I love this tune and lyrics is amazing ,,it's a great composed
How can you not feel some emotion from this song , many of the renditions are excellent.
This and elvis's are my favorite versions
Julia Goodman Yes,O'Donnel is a good entertainer,especially when teaming with Mary Duff.However,concerning his interpretation of" Danny Boy",he can't compare to Jim Reeves 's performance of the same song. I suggest you give it a try,you could very well change your mind after that.Good listening to all the mad about music who'd read this annotation.God bless you. J.C.....(from France).
Julia Goodman Johnny Cash sings this brilliantly
Try Roy Orbison's version You will love it
Same views myself thanks
B
Elvis’ version is very heart felt and keeps within the tradition of the song…he doesn’t over sing on it like some singers who mess with its meaning.
brings tears to my eyes
