Hands firmly in pockets, smoking and drinking on stage, clearly unclear on who's supposed to sing when... and absolutely nailing every moment. Legends.
Except for the fact that Shane McGowan was born in Kent England, it couldn't be more Irish. Did you know, almost all the pogues we're born in England? I'm not saying it matters. But it's interesting how few people know that. Love The Pogues. Love The Dubliners
Anyone else there when the pogues couldn’t play in Glasgow at the concert hall because they were so pished, so they had to come back 2 hours later once they sobered up a bit. What a fucking night they were so good 😂
I'm not Irish so I don't know. But it must be an Irish thing since both of them are doing it; being different generations it's the only common thing they have on stage visualy.
It's hard to believe, how Shane, even drunk as fu** always takes his turn at the right time and remembers his lyrics. That guy is a mistery to me. Love him.
@@slaves329. that's debatable, some creative types only uncover their full potential with help from alcohol or drugs. Would Shane have written all those masterpiece lyrics had he been sober? We'll never know that.
@@slaves329.probably not as talented….as a former drug addict I simply cannot get my flow as I did when I used and I oxycodone was my drug of choice…..and that’s just a fact with MANY artists and has been since time began. So claiming he’d have more ability is just not a given fact.
Being born on St Patrick's day, I have often spent my birthday in Irish Taverns. I also have worked and lived in Dublin during the two months of summer 2000. Spent an evening at the tavern on top of Sugar hill. Yes, Irish people is very warm friendly and funny. LONG LIVE IRELAND !
We had 1 million Brits on their phones where they sit 2 million Yanks from the pond over 3 million Canucks, and some Aussies to boot Listening to the Irish Rover!
I asked Ronnie Drew for his autograph for my 6 year old son who loved him.Standing on O’Connell Bridge,the smell of the Liffey.He told me He would swop his signature for my phone number in a purely humorous manner.I dance down the street.His eyes were mesmerising .RIP Ronnie,so many Irish Musicians and friends together in Heaven.💚🙏🏻
jemielnic lol what world do you live in, even the lgbtq folks in the mainstream are controlled and profited from by white cis males in control of the music industry, and idk of any mainstream musicians that are trans, especially not qtpoc.
My childhood was filled with memories of my Grandfather listening to The Pogues and the Dubliners, I used to love sitting with him listening along. He passed away a couple months ago, but this music will always keep him alive in spirit.
Same here, my papa used to give me a shandy an a nip on a Friday and he put the rebel tunes on and we had a blast, wish i could have one more night to spend with him,, miss him so much,, true Republican.... Tioc faidh ar la....
I have always loved the Pogues, and who cares about his teeth? The man is drop dead gorgeous in my book. What a talented musician! Every single last one of the musicians here are wonderful, but I definitely have a crush on handsome Shane!
@shane7103 & from me, my old friend, in my local pub as I was just passing the flyer said "Tonight Iive Irish Music", you just know its gonna be a great night all the best
Saw them do this at the Brighton Centre gig in 1988 and Kirsty McColl was up there too. I've been to hundreds of gigs in my 57 years but this was surely the best of the lot
I grew up listening to Irish music my grandfather was from wexford, mam played this all the time, along her and grandfather doing Irish dancing, happy days 💥💥👏👏
Amazon performance. They are enjoying so much. Shane is such an amazing singer. My dad loved The Pogues. Many memories when he played these songs. RIP Dad and Shane.
I am 44 now and clearly remember seeing this as an 8 year old and being blown away by the sound, the solidness of Ronnie the anarchy of Shane together making beautiful Irish music still sounds so good today ❤
As a music fan i can say this is one of the few live performance you will ever see in which the artists are actually having a blast. Seeing the dubs the legends they are enjoying themselves playing with a new style of music is amazing. And the pogues! The look on Shanes face in the last verse when he realises a legend like Ronnie wants him to join in is amazing. They are all brilliant.
My grandad was a strabane man who moved to wexford aftrr being in the freestate army. He moved to Ferns when my dad was young then a decade later they moved to dublin. Wexford was a popular holiday for my family. I was 8 when we went to curraghcloe. When he had a few drinks with his friends papa would belt this out in the tenor vooce he had. I didnt understand politics or history much at that time. This song burned in my brain and to me i feel it in my bones when a good singer gives it justice. This is fantastic
This has to be one of the finest recordings of generational interpretation. Its great to see the glint in the eyes of the old pros egging on the young pups. then at the end accepting them and just enjoying the craich.
Living in Kilburn in the 80s whilst walking past Biddy Mulligans Pub on a Sunday midday lunch session after Mass at the Sacred Heart Church this song was always blasting from a band in the pub . Loved it people walking bye doing a little jig . Memories Kilburn alive everyday so many Pubs bringing the High Road to life .
two of the best groups ever together - Ronnie Drew with the wonderful voice and all seeing eyes and the heart and soul of Shane McGowan Hail the pogues and the Rovers.
This is fucking amazing. Crazy how 2 so different styles didn't clash at all but actually entwine perfectly. Also i like ronny drew looking, he seem didn't despise Shane's punk attitude he actually seem enjoyed by that. He had to be an open minded guy..or just an amazing seller and performer :)
ImagineRonnie Drew as a young man and him wooing a young girl. She'd get lost in his eyes. They're so blue like a ahimmering pool. Also, what a tune this was.
Reminds me of my time on the sites in London many years ago cashing my cheque in the pubs around Cricklewood by the end of the weekend I had flattened the lot , great times I’ll always remember 👏🏼 RIP Shane M, Always be a Legend!
This song was played at my uncles funeral.... when it started playing we were outside the crematorium about to carry his coffin in for the short ceremony that would happen there..... they had it blaring.... could see people other side of the graveyard the crematorium was located in look over in our direction to see what was going on... a bit shocked..... some of the family hid their faces in embarrassment mortified at the song choice (but laughing at the same time). the place was hoping like a pub in a lockin blaring this song..... everyone was laughing and smiling... funeral directors, even the priest too outside with us were struggling to hold their composure as we all walked in to the chapel..... never seen a funeral start like that before.... (we balanced it out with a poem to the lonesome boatman by the fureys at the end - but still what a way to go out lol)
My sister's last wish was her brothers make a toast at her grave before lowering her. As we were pouring shots, one thing led to another and the entire crowded ended up under the awning with dixie cup shots in their hands, laughing and toasting. Only my sister could get us to bartend graveside. She was one of a kind. Peace be with you, Dana. See ya' soon.

It's a sad day but considering he was given only 6 weeks to live in 1989 he's done bloody well to make it this far.
RIP Shane.
Thanx, that made me laugh on a sad day, he was something!
He's gone that's what the media say. He'll survive all of us, no doubt.
he's not dead just get a bit of horse glue and duck tape he''ll be right as rain.
Haha nice comment. RIP Shano 🇮🇪🍻🍀
A true trooper
Hands firmly in pockets, smoking and drinking on stage, clearly unclear on who's supposed to sing when... and absolutely nailing every moment. Legends.
Timing perfect
The most magical Irish music...The Chieftains and The Pogues! I've died and gone to heaven - sublime!!
@@steveridgeway3784 ... Dubliners ;)
Absolutely. Perfect timing. Talent !!!
Was hast du denn gedacht wie früher Musik gemacht wurde? Only like this way.
Could this be any more Irish. Your man smoking and drinking on stage. All the boys looking super casual pumping out perfect sound. Just magic
"So, how do you look like a lead singer" "Just keep your hands in your pockets, and sway awkwardly" "Ah beggorah, to be sure.. "
that “man” is the legend shane mcgowan
@@molerat8525 and will do what he wants, when he wants 👍

@@andrewhall7930 everyone knows this, still Irish.
Anyone else there when the pogues couldn’t play in Glasgow at the concert hall because they were so pished, so they had to come back 2 hours later once they sobered up a bit. What a fucking night they were so good 😂
That’s a brilliant story! Amazing. Happy Christmas
How would a Glasgow audience know they were pishe'd?
@@kevinmcmahon2491 Never underestimate Shane MacGowan
@@user-ys5yv2nz6w I’m surprised he can still get pissed he’s been drinking since the age of 5.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The combined blood alcohol content standing on that stage must be absolutely staggering...
I thought exactly the same. Bloody good session though wasn't it!
Ha ha ha I see what you did “staggering” 😂😂
Holy I lost it at this comment! Too right!
Don't light a match nearby!
Must have been filmed early in the morning then, they aren’t even started yet.
Shan'e performances were never boring.. Here is a prime examples with the Dubliners... RIP Shane you will be sorely missed. 💐💖
This is one of my favourites the energy is contagious, rest in peace brother
Was my wedding song in 1991!
With the current sea shanty trend I sort of hope that more people come across this glorious moment in time.
as one of my all time fav songs .. hoping my beard goes fully white too ! hope the folks around St Patricks day had a good one !
Cringe reddit kids will ruin it.
Hear, hear!!

❤️❤️❤️ true
More to the point, Neither of them gave/give a fook ! , they do because they can, God love em 👍

I love how both vocalists do this entire performance with their hands in their pockets, lol
I think you missed Shane drinking and smoking...
@@blechtic ye hes such a mong but in a good way
hand in pockets or no song at all. is the irish way
I'm not Irish so I don't know. But it must be an Irish thing since both of them are doing it; being different generations it's the only common thing they have on stage visualy.
Ronnie Drew usually played guitar while he was singing, so maybe he just wasn't sure what to do with his hands!
Regards from Poland for all irish People
Amazing that Shane never forgets the words the state he's in. He must be singing these songs directly from the brain stem!
He's prob been drunk for so long it's not an issue I had a friend who got sober and had t relearn all his lyrics.
Hes never been to america before but hes been in some states🤣
Alcohol affects the brain not the heart when it for singing
Shane epic
Shane just oozes epic irishness...he doesn't need a brain, it is in every cell.
The energy coming from this performance could have kept dublin lit for a month. One of the greatest live performances ever.
RIP Shane, true legend at the game of life 🙏
Shane is everything all at once of being Irish. And we are so proud of his beautiful miraculous soul!
Shane's a facking Londoner.
Love how the fiddler and the flute man are enjoying each others talent
I'm English and I love too
@@bully130london it doesn’t matter where your from pal if u like it , u like it .
To me it also looks like the fiddler is proud of the other one's skills since he was a magnificent flute player himself
Is it not the tin whistle
@@thatisonetastyburger yes, which is a fipple flute.
Absolute legends…this is so precious …
How could you not have fun singing this song.
Holy SHIT, the energy!!!!! 🍀🍀🍀
This song is hard coded into his DNA. Like everything he did. Man was a gift to music, RIP Shane, you bloody legend.
Ireland is a beautiful country, with lovely people and wonderful culture.
Our music is the best craic to drink to :P
Amen to that
A million times nicer than the stuffy English! I LOVE the Irish!
erin go brah !!!!!!!!!
What I love tho. Is he said all the way from London :D
One of the greatest moments in irish music history. Ronnie drew just magical.
Ah Ronnie.
Hell yeah!
It's hard to believe, how Shane, even drunk as fu** always takes his turn at the right time and remembers his lyrics. That guy is a mistery to me. Love him.
A Drink And A Smoke, Classic Shane!
Imagine what he would of been if he didn't drink or take drugs. Let that sink in
@@slaves329. that's debatable, some creative types only uncover their full potential with help from alcohol or drugs. Would Shane have written all those masterpiece lyrics had he been sober? We'll never know that.
Ummmm sorry but functioning alcoholics are not a mystery theres MILLIONS of them 🙄🤣😂🤷🏼♀️ where’s the damn mystery?
@@slaves329.probably not as talented….as a former drug addict I simply cannot get my flow as I did when I used and I oxycodone was my drug of choice…..and that’s just a fact with MANY artists and has been since time began. So claiming he’d have more ability is just not a given fact.
People speak about classic performances, far too easily.
But this is off the scale.
Brilliant
Gems like this I save in my absolute favourites playlist. I watch them when I'm a bit down. This performance is like you said, off the scale.
Staggering amount of talent on that stage
My mum passed just before shane. She was of irish decent and this song makes me smile. Rip shane. Rip mammy x
❤❤❤

Couldn't possibly be two more unique singers anywhere on earth, quintessential Irish vocalists.
Played this on a jukebox on a rainy November night in an Irish bar, downtown New York. The place went mental!.
You're a very talented man Rik.
@@fintonmainz7845 I just put the money in and selected this classic tune, everyone else did the rest.. 😉

Remember when a person's talents were more significant than the condition of their teeth.
At least what they had left
Then again, one could argue that the state of Shane's teeth are a part if the image and allure.

Do people realise how talented you have to be to appear this shambolic and yet produce beautiful music on a live set?
Were you from...?
@Black Lesbian Poet what do you mean miss poet..?
Weather forecast for carrigaline middle
Yes. He must have been shifting himself to sing with them. He did well.
Isn't it amazing that Shane had his teeth fixed. HE'S STILL ALIVE
We are so lucky to have all the best singers ever from Ireland 🇮🇪
They have made us all very proud
This video is a piece of Irish music treasure.

Should have went to Specsavers 🤓
Grammar, please. Should have GONE...@@johncherry2205

Absolute talent, who cares about his teeth, best song writer of our times x
The pogues on stage reasonably sober amazing
Absolutely iconic

Love it. They all looked pissed. But still deliver..xx
Watching Shane just looking at Ronnie Drew with such admiration while he sings is just wonderful
What tunes what bands what brilliance
Never to be repeated. Nothing today can ever compare.
Just brilliant
I'm 55 and have been a lifelong fan of Dubliners and the Pouges. I think that Shane's look is appealing. He is real.
What a magical performance all round 🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹
What I love about Shane is that he doesn't miss a beat.....who cares what he looks like?? Really??
He's lip syncing, sounds exactly the same as the studio version
Never has there been a more legendary collab
