@TheDublinersOfficial are legendary folk band formed in 1962! I am a big fan of their art - and my TH-cam career grew frankly because of the popularity.
I remember when I went to Ireland, I went on a tour and the bus driver sang this song, and he invited other people to come up and sing songs from their countries as well. Hands down, the best tour I’ve ever been on.
Hands down, if there was an Aussie there, he sang Waltzing Matilda. Went thru Europe one summer on a bus tour with an Aussie driver - he played that one alot and all the Aussies sang that. Best trip of my life!
I had an elderly Irishman as my Latin teacher in high school, and he was a delight! Every St. Patrick's Day, instead of working, we would literally do nothing except listen to Irish music (Including this song) for 40 minutes straight. It was such an awesome experience that my friend and I continue to listen to the same songs to this day (which is St. Patrick's, btw :D)
I had an elderly Irishman for my Latin teacher, as well! He was my favorite teacher! I loved his class! What a character he was! He was the St. Patrick’s Day Parade Marshall one year in our city!
Singing this in the clubs of Newcastle with the entire club screaming at the top of their lungs....I cry because where I'm now, they don't even know the song...makes me want to come home...I love this song so much
@@chrissymon this isn't even Luke on lead. Please look him up. He wasn't called the red haired minstrel for nothing. I was born in America but I know Luke kelly and paddy Rielly are treasures of Ireland (Erin)
My grandfather passed away this year and this song will always remind me of the times he would take me and my brother places when we were little and play Irish music in his car on the way there. He was a really good man and I’ll always miss him.
Im really sorry about that and i hope your feeling better. I can somewhat relate i remember my nan singing this before she passed , its nice to have songs that remind you of family whove passed on
Such good memories for you!! As long as you carry him in your heart,he'll never truly die!! Just looove this song!! Was at a fish fry a couple days ago and they had a band who was playing this song. Was singing and clapping along with everyone else! Love all the Irish songs,especially now,around St. Patrick's Day !! Erin Go Bragh!!!
This was played as the entry song for my sons funeral as he loved the dubliners and it was very fitting for him as he was a wonderful character who loved people ❤ xxxxxx
On St Patrick's Day where I live and bars were open. There's a band that sings this at a bar I go to. Also, there is a series of claps that happen after the first no nay never. It is fantastic.
I am 69 living in England and just before the Covid I discovered my ancestry in Cork . I went to visit and met cousins and next week I am returned to meet them again. Last time they were singing ballads and asked me to sing one . I didn’t know any ! This time I am going prepared by learning this ballad.
What? No clapping after each “No, Nay, Never?” 4 claps...👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 😉🍻 Fun times! I miss getting out & hearing the boys singing this in Western Massachusetts, US.
Just heard this at the Apple Picking place in Princeton, New Jersey while sipping wine and eating veggie soup. The crowd was not that engaged but the duo kept trucking along with great Irish music. I am black Latina but love music of all types.
I rocked up in Zimbabwe (Rhodesia) just at the end of the Rhodesian bush war. Salisbury was full of ex-pats from Europe and the Anglosphere--overlanders, bullet chasers, chancers and characters of all sorts. Every weekend there was a party at some ex-pat "mess" where we grilled meat outside and drank beer. Sometimes someone would start singing this song, and the rest of us would do the chorus. A lot of Wild Rovers there--I guess we all were.
Proud Englishman here, but have Irish family and love going to Ireland. Never met a more friendly and funny group of people, beautiful country, beautiful people
I am 78 yrs old but I just heard a song that every word is still in my head from good old college days. The Dubliners The Wild Rover. It was one of our favorite drinking songs. Is there any better drinking songs ! I'm 20 again today..
I'm indian and I equally love this song.. I wish to hang out with my Irish brothers and Sisters someday and shout the chorus together.. Most my indian pals don't know this gem of an Irish song..
The Dubliners are the greatest Folk Band I ever heard. And they had TWO of the most Iconic voices in all the folk genre, Luke Kelly and Ronnie Drew. I cannot express enough how truly incredible their music has been to listen too.
Whenever I hear this song it takes me back to my youth many years ago in Zambia. Drinking sessions at the gliding club in Mufulira always ended with this song.
I've been in Ireland in 2014, it was an amazing journey so much that I promised myself I'll live one day in Dublin. I just fell in love with its culture and history immediately. Also Dublin is very beautiful and people are kind and funny, they made me feel like I was home even if that was my first trip in another country, all by myself.
The undetected hero I read your comment. I’m planning on returning home to my second country the Philippines which I call it the Ireland of the Far East/Pacific Rim Island nation chain. If I weren’t going to return there, I would be moving to Ireland where my great grandfather O’Rourke & my 2 great grand uncles were driven out of Ireland about 1869/1870 and headed for Pittston, PA worked the coal mines in the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre area.
Ireland is a place i'd so much love to visit, I love the culture from what i've read up on already and it's history as well, and the songs like this are lovely to listen to. I hope I can stay awhile there soon!
This was my dads favourite song & his nick name was the wild rover & he certainly lived up to his name....sadly he passed last year. Love & miss you dad xx
I was like 8yo when I first came to Ireland, Galway. I was with my father and sisters, we went on a boat from France, and I don't remember much from that time, but I remember one thing, this song ! I was sung all the time in the boat, and I loved it ! Now I am 30, back to Galway to try to live here, and I am happy my manager found this song for me ❤
Wow, The Wild Rover by The Dubliners is such a classic folk song! The lyrics are simple yet powerful, telling the story of a wild rover who has spent all of his money on whiskey and beer, but now returns home with gold and vows to never lead a wild life again. The chorus is incredibly catchy and memorable, with the repetition of "no, nay, never" driving home the point that the wild rover has truly changed his ways. The Dubliners do a fantastic job bringing the song to life, with their unique blend of traditional Irish instruments and powerful vocals. The guitar and banjo provide the perfect backdrop for the singer to tell the story, while the use of harmonies adds a layer of depth to the chorus. One of the things I love about this song is how it can be interpreted in different ways. Some might see it as a cautionary tale about the dangers of excessive drinking and partying, while others might see it as a story of redemption and turning one's life around. Either way, it's a timeless piece of music that has stood the test of time. #TheDubliners #TheWildRover #FolkMusic #IrishMusic #ClassicSongs #MusicHistory #Redemption #DrinkingSongs #SingAlong #FolkSingAlong
My family moved from Waterford Ireland to County Durham in the 1900s. We are still keeping the Irish traditions alive up here. You’ll never beat the ☘️
Simeler time as my family but they moved to Washington, ashington one of them places in the north east my nana great grandad and nanna were Meehans from mayo I've never even been Ireland but would love to see where my ancestors were from
Ah all the family parties where the men would get drunk and start sing songs. My stepsister and her boyfriend came over from Australia. First time the lad met us and he had some craic. He said he loves the atmosphere we had in the house.
Serbs think of Irish people as our relatives in Europe, such as Slavic nations are to us. Our two biggest cities were established by the Celts. You would be suprised how many Celtic toponyms exist in Serbia. Greetings, Lads!
Zdravo Gospodin Prikaza! Je sam Irlanska-Kanadaska i takodje, jako volim Srbiju! (apologies for my crappy Serbian, I was trying to say I love Serbia a lot: you all have had your fair share of battles against brutal colonization, a lot like Ireland)
This was always me nannys favourite some of my fondest memories of her was her pissed drunk every show day singing her lungs out , so every now and again when im drinking i just blare this and its the best craic
Thank you for uploading this. I've had it as an earworm and even dreamed about it for about two weeks now. Couldn't remember the title, but just searched TH-cam for No, nay, never et voila. And then sat and sang at the top of my lungs. There's something magical about Irish folk and ballads.
Reminds me of my Grandad, grew up in Laois, moved to England when he was 11 but always kept his Irish twang and never met a more proud Irishman. RIP mate
Captivates and transports the mind to vast stretches of open irish fields of early morn wet with the rain of last night. U cant help but believe in being an entire vagabond as u travel down these grounds. I can almost smell the fresh rain washed soil of dawn. Unfortunate enough such simple songs with simple words painting a simple picture are solely missed in the present post modern age. Greetings from India
Growing up in America, I always learned that my ancestors came from Ireland, always listening to Irish music, always seeing Ireland as a second home. Can't explain it, never been to Ireland but it feels like Ireland is calling me back, calling me to my ancestors homeland
Yesterday I went to the Maryland Irish Festival! And I got to listen to lots of Irish songs and ate Irish food! 😃 I event met real Irish people that are actually from Ireland with there really cool Irish accent! 😃 This is one of my favorite songs!
My mum's side of the family is Irish so I have grown up to this music despite living in England I used to visit ir island often but I've not been since 2015
Hey there, greetings from Arlington, Va. I'm half southern/half Yankee! Good Times....er...Bad Times! Oh well....from Mass. to Dixie....WE...are...ALL....AMERICANS! and from similar backgrounds. Blessings to thee friend...Peace! EML
I use to go to an irish pub in Amsterdam in the mid 80,s where i heard this beautifull song,,,the pub was named, face of folk, the place doesnt existe anymore,,,i miss that beautifull periode of time...
Heard this first time in 2015 when our english teacher in high school blasted this on the radio a day before winter break, got hooked on this song immediately! Ahh, nice memories!! :)
Mijn lieve Walther van mij! Dankjewel voor dit supermooie liedje! Hiermee maak jij mij zooo supergelukkug en jij tovert hiermee een grote lach op mijn gezicht! Ik ben zoo stapelverliefd op jou!
There is something of an irony here in that this song actually started its life as a 17th century English temperance alehouse ballad. Whilst working in Newcastle in the early 60's Luke Kelly used to visit The Bridge folk club. Enamoured with traditional folk songs he made notes on the ones he liked and took them back to Ireland. One of those songs was often sung by English folk singer Louis Killen - it was called 'The Wild Rover'. The Dubliners recorded it in 1963 released it as a single in 1964 and had a big chart hit. The result being that everyone now thinks it is a traditional Irish folk song. But it ain't.
I didn't even know in which continent Ireland is. After McGregor i learned everything. Love the songs, the whiskey, the people. Greetings from Greece, i wish i could visit Ireland one day
I remember when I went to Ireland, I went on a tour and the bus driver sang this song, and he invited other people to come up and sing songs from their countries as well.
Hands down, the best tour I’ve ever been on.
If you havent song that one in an irish pub then you have never been to Ireland
M
Irish Bus drivers are the best.
Hands down, if there was an Aussie there, he sang Waltzing Matilda. Went thru Europe one summer on a bus tour with an Aussie driver - he played that one alot and all the Aussies sang that. Best trip of my life!
Oh yes, it was probably Wild Rover Tours? They are amazing, did two trips with them during my student exchange.
As an Indian girl, I visited Ireland and was immediately floored...I felt like I was home. Can't explain it, the best experience of my life.
Past life experiences
If you have to pay the rent you will feel lost 😉
That's so cool!
And if ye go to a pub you'll be flutered

Heard this first time in 2015 when our english teacher in high school blasted this on the radio a day before winter break, got hooked on this song immediately! Ahh, nice memories!! :)
I always keep coming back to this song during Christmas time. Happy Holidays everyone! 🎉🎄

Butlins camp in Skegness. Wet bars in 1975. Happiest days of my life. Always remembered when I hear this song.
I got to hear this live today 😊 I was so happy today and I can call it the best day ever!
I went there in October, I miss Dublin so much. :'(
I sing this when I try and overcome an addiction of sone kind. It helps!
I love this song! My great uncle Floyd used to sing this song and many others that his mom's Irish dad taught him.
Happy St. Patrick's Day from Dublin, Ireland :)

Marvelous Luke Kelly and the Dubliners forever.
My father s song , his love of the Dubliner s , his grandmother was from Donegal, he would be proud to know his grandson is the spit of Luke kelly ❤
There is something of an irony here in that this song actually started its life as a 17th century English temperance alehouse ballad.
Whilst working in Newcastle in the early 60's Luke Kelly used to visit The Bridge folk club. Enamoured with traditional folk songs he made notes on the ones he liked and took them back to Ireland. One of those songs was often sung by English folk singer Louis Killen - it was called 'The Wild Rover'.
The Dubliners recorded it in 1963 released it as a single in 1964 and had a big chart hit. The result being that everyone now thinks it is a traditional Irish folk song.
But it ain't.
I didn't even know in which continent Ireland is. After McGregor i learned everything. Love the songs, the whiskey, the people. Greetings from Greece, i wish i could visit Ireland one day
Beautiful song,
Love from Italy :)
We Used To Sing This Song At Fratton Park Back In The Day!!!!!!!! They Were Good Times. Play Up Pompey!!!!!
