  • Early film of 'Lullaby of London' on tv 17th Dec '86, 14 months before the song was released on 'If I Should Fall From Grace With God' in Jan '88. "Shane MacGowan described the song as being about a man who comes home at night drunk and proceeds to start telling his young son, who is in bed, about how everything is going to be fine and to go to sleep, while privately the man is worried and hoping that the child will not have to go through the same hardships that he did while growing up." - Wikipedia.
    Live in Lille, France, 1986.
    Lyrics:
    As I walked down by the riverside
    One evening in the spring
    Heard a long-gone song from days gone by
    Blowing in on the great north wind
    Though there is no lonesome corncrake's cry
    Of sorrow and delight
    You can hear the cars and the shouts from bars
    And the laughter and the fights
    May the ghosts that howled 'round the house at night
    Never keep you from your sleep
    May they all sleep tight down in hell tonight
    Or wherever they may be
    As I walked on with a heavy heart
    Then a stone danced on the tide
    And the song went on though the lights were gone
    And the north wind gently sighed
    And an evening breeze coming from the east
    That kissed the riverside
    So I pray now, child, that you sleep tonight
    When you hear this lullaby
    May the wind that blows from haunted graves
    Never bring you misery
    May the angels bright watch you tonight
    And keep you while you sleep

      He wasn't drunk or drugged all the time yet here it was around 89/90 he became dependent and never wrote a good song again and couldn't sing anymore or pretty do much anything apart from drink and do drugs and get looked after like all alcoholic addicts. The best and biggest loss to music. Just imagine the songs he could write when older

      Have seen Shane and the gang many times in London. Was always a hoot . Used to get back stage passes as worked in a bar and served Shane and spider etc manytimes .. his drink three shots of gin.... topped up with lemonade and ice then a bottle of mekelob. Maybe spelling that wrong . . He was always a gent and polite . Johnny Depp I also met , he and Shane have a great bond. And now a movie is been made about him..produced by Johnny Depp. Thanks for reading

      Far from a laughing stock. Lauded by all his peers as one of the best lyricists ever to put pen to paper. Lives life as he wants to has a beautiful lady, millions of fans..while doing it his way. Johnny Depp and Julien Temple also just produced a great documentary about this 'laughing stock'. And you know what's even funnier? Germany has one of the biggest Pogues fan-clubs in the world..still. so maybe not for you, which is fine. But 'a laughing stock'? The mans intellect and soul was enough to capture millions of hearts, what about yours Chief laughs-a-lot? He also spoke out and wrote about the savagery of the brown shirts, I just hope that isn't colouring your opinion.

      Shane MacGowan deserves at least two Nobel prizes if Bob Dylan can have one, and as a singer, only Luke Kelly comes close.
