The true spirit of Ireland living on. These are the traditions worth saving... singing ballads and everyone listening in awe. Love it.
True words,Thank you, Aida
A tapestry of metaphors that is so thought provokingly complex and yet a seemingly innocent tale. Poetic genius!
any time i go to ALDI or Lidl here in Germany i burst into laughs. And i am always looking for the wet suit and can not find one. Thank you Mick MacConnell for your brilliant song!
local singer in my pub sang this every week , he passed away today at 48, RIP john kavanagh rest in peace
God bless him
May your friend rest in peace. I'm glad he enjoyed Mickeys song
Absolutely wonderful, Brilliant, Hilarious and very very true. Thanks Mick.
Saw a bloke queuing up to buy a pint of milk...and a safe, when our Aldi first opened!
This is gold.
Oh thank you for that lovely song! Any time i enter an Aldi or Lidl shop here in Germany i am singing the refrain…. "Lidldialdilidldialdi….!
The best thing that came out of Aldi & Lidl is this song.Well done Mick MacConnell from big rab danny scott toni from GLACSOW...
I work for Aldi and this is absolutely perfect.
my classmate has to sing this on our Christmas concert
👍
Fantastic , absolutely brilliant....typical Irish Pub atmosphere
Wonderful!!!! every time I go to Aldi or Lidl now I find myself humming this tune or trying to remember the lyrics in my head!!!!!!
My daughter just rang to say she needs to do a big shop so I said ... oh good, so do I, we can do a "Lidledeealdi shop"!!! It's part of my vocabulary now !!
Best song of last year. No question about it
This is art; fine art.
...OMG - HE wrote only our rivers run free?! oh wow...
I am a proud to be a Listowel man who knows Mickey and Maura and meet them in John B's pub every week. Mickey your a great song writer and I am looking forward to the Stack Clan Anthem that you have promised me for next years Stack Clan Gathering. Well done.
I am German and I love this. One of my friends would like to have a version with the lyrics
OK, but I really do feel quite stupid sitting here clapping on the sofa while my wife wonders what the hell is on the headphones and where I think I am! Thanks for completely transporting me to a place I'd love to be. Feel welcome to drop in at our session, Cobbles Inn Kelso Scottish Borders, late night every Friday of the year...
That's just the epitome of the Irish, lovely people and very funny, love them to bits
Oh this is why Im proud to be half Irish ☘
Thank you!
This is what Irish men are proud of
Fantastic! We call the shops Lidly/Aldi now! RIP John Kavanagh xx

I am from Ireland I’m so happy our country will be remembered 😂😂
Mickey McConnell is from a very musical family in Ballinaleck in Co Fermanagh. His brother is Cathal the flute player with Boys of the Lough. Mickey has written some masterpieces in his time including "Only our Rivers Run Free" "Supermarket Wine" "Peter Pan and Me" among many others and he has done all this as an amateur musician - his day job was as a journalist with the Irish Times.
John McGowan this song cheered me up.... a super mind this man has
Thanks, I found it very entertaining and the storyline so very true, lovely to hear type of storytelling in a song so enjoyable the singer and writer so talented. Thanks a lot.
Brilliant! My daughter who is teaching in Germany posted this so now we here across the pond can sing along. Thank you!

Cool song. Glad I found this.
2:58 - in the purple shirt and the glasses, is Eoin Hand, former manager of the Republic of Ireland.
So true, the song so much wraps up how my wife shops at these two stores... Lol
I see Eoin Hand (former Ireland Manager) enjoying the craic. Tipperary Joe (Lulu) sings this in our club. Great song.
I knew when I heard this first in Rostrevor that it would travel. Brilliant stuff
What a grand way to start the day! Hey it's Friday.... I need another LED torch/knife/German sausage product
