If that's any indication of the quality of songs you have hidden away in your cupboard, I think you owe it to the world to dig a few more gems out. Beautiful rendition.
I agree!
What a fantastic song in a great version ❤
This is absolutely fit for commercial release exactly as it is, Mr Bragg. Brilliant. Can't do wrong with anything by Eric Bogle.
I have listened to this song dozens of times. My Father and his family were from Belfast. My Grandpa was a WWI Irish Army Vet. We became Quakers as a result. Every Sunday in the 70's the men would gather around the TV in the front room and watch the news from Belfast while the women cooked in the back of the house. Years later, I gladly alienated my Orange relatives and favor reunification. Here's to a united Ireland.
whatever
@@rodneyhull9764 Such a sensitive, well, thought out and intelligent response. Thank you for your input. I just hope that all of your human interactions aren't quite so anti social.
Boy.. that's beautiful.. makes me tear up ..haunting
I'm crying my eyes out, such a sad song
Absolutely love this. How could this be hidden?
Wow, just WOW. So powerful.
thanks for posting, on record store day.
Straight to the 💛💚💙

Wow, Billy. Thanks for publishing this song
Beautiful version. Must have been on magnetic tape, you can here the bleed through, sounds like a quiet slapback.
Your voices match amazingly.
Beautiful version of a lovely song
Beautiful
Fantastic
beautiful 👍
Glorious
Amazing. Beautiful
Amazing!
Photo from Olomuc...? Any connection
Wow. This and Mary blacks version are sublime. Who wrote it originally?
Was it Eric Bogle? He always has the best lyrics. Eg. The Green Fields of France
@user-ug9lh2sn7t Indeed, Eric Bogle
He's a woefully underexposed Scottish-Australian folk song writer and musician. He's written a lot of real gems over more than 50 years of his career.
@@ilmari1452he's written some amazing songs, green fields of france, waltzing matilda, leaving Nancy, now I'm easy.
✌
You, Stipe and Nathalie we haven't heard you can release?
Wow! love to know the story of Billy and Michael, I had no idea they ever worked together? And this photo is magnificent, what is the story with this too?
This photo was taken in Olomouc, Czech Republic. It was absolutely amazing to hear them both sing this song.

Billy, Michael, Nathalie Merchant and The Coal Porters played Olomouc, Czech Republic in 1990. Michael used the name of the town in R.E.M. Disappear song lyrics in 2001...
Michael featured in Billy's album Don't Try This At Home in the song You Wake Up My Neighborhood, together with Peter Buck. Peter also features in the wonderful cover of Everywhere in the same album. You should check both out
They also played together with Nathalie Merchant covering John Prine’s ‘Hello in there’ in Glasgow during its European City of Culture celebrations … same year I believe
What's the story behind this photo (video thumbnail)? I am curious because I can see it was taken on Upper square in Olomouc, my home city...
It's from their 1990 tour through the post-revolutionary ex-soviet bloc together with Nathalie Merchant. You can find some shitty quality videos from Prague, with Merta translating, it's lovely :-)
Hey, check this out, there's even some nice videos actually from Olomouc!
