There are people who sing songs and there are people who live and breathe songs. These guys are so steeped in sincerity and are paving a new style of Irish Folk that is gritty truthful and humorous! This life is a little better knowing that the Mary Wallopers are putting in work and playing those songs that belong in a canon that is literally miles deep!
@John Reb you should check out some of the well known big names from the folk game. You can't really talk Irish Folk groups without the Dubliners. Other old names are The Clancy Brothers w/Tommy Makem. The Chieftains. The Wolfe Tones(especially if you like the rebel tunes). Many good solo performers, many of whom played with the Dubs, Christy Moore, Paddy Reilly, Tommy Makem, dominic behan(brother of highly notable writer Bredan Behan), Finbar Furey, Paul Brady, Also don't forget about the Scots lots of great balladeers from Scotland who often sing songs written by Irishman. Dick Gaughan and Hamish Imlach being two of my favorites. The Mary Wallopers big song is actually a Hamish tune "Cod Liver and the Orange juice". There are some crossover type groups I really like too that kind of span traditional folk sound and more modern rock. The Pogues, Thin Lizzy, Floggy molly, Aslan, Snow patrol and a bunch of others.
@John Reb All the other recommendations here are grand, but I'd also recommend artists like Lankum, Ye Vagabonds, The Bonny Men, Gnoss, Talisk, Sian, Staran, and individual artists like Iona Fyfe, Daoiri Farrell, Lisa O'Neill and Ewan McLennan. Check out the channel run by Myles O'Reilly. He's the Irish version of Gems.
Love this SO much. Grew up on Irish folk music, travelled there a couple of times and loved every single second. Thanks for the music and the wonderful recording! Chords and lyrics below as always folks! The outro is not 100% as they play slight alterations, but thats the basic idea Intro G D / G A / D / G A D Verses G D / G A Chorus D / G A D Outro D / G D / G A D / D / G D / G A D / G D A [Intro] [Verse 1] Young Kenny and Colley and ould Martin Quinn We made up together to smuggle the tin [Chorus] With me right toorin-arinan, right toorin-arinan Right toorin-anay [Verse 2] We walked all the day boys till the heels they grew raw We hadn't the comfort of lying in the straw [Chorus] With me right toorin-arinan, right toorin-arinan Right toorin-anay [Verse 3] "I'll yoke her", says Colley "I'm wise to her tricks" The more that he yoked her, the more the mare kicked.

I think you can do these corrections(but I could be wrong too): Verse 1: "We made up together" for "Made up together" Verse 2: "We walked all the day" for "Well they walked all the day" "We hadn't the comfort of lying in straw" for "They hadn't the comfort of lying in the straw" Verse 3: "The more that he yoked her" for "But the more that he yoked her" Verse 4: "Many's the fiver she won in the trots" for "And many the fiver she won in her trots" Verse 5: "put ye in jail" for "punch ye in jail" Verse 6: "put ye in jail boys for smuggling this while" for "punch ye in jail boys for smuggling a while"
thanks to this, i've discovered sam shackleton, lisa o'neill, lankum, the dubliners, liam weldon, dick gaughan, the high level ranters, the boys of the lough, and tony mac mahon, to name a few. this is no longer a rabbit hole, it's just where i live now.
Just recently came across the Mary Wallopers preparing for a trip to Ireland. They were not not playing at the time we visited but we listened to them driving in the car all through Ireland. xoxoxox them!
"Some people over there have the nerve to call it the UK" You boys call it the uk on your own tour date list!!!!!!!!!!! Love your music boys, keep it up. Looks like a scene from Fr Ted when the people approach over the hill ! Anthony I've been a viewer of gems now for a long time...brilliant work. Thanks for introducing me to Lost dog, Josh o O'Keeffe ,Hill country devil and Sierra Ferrell etc. 2
Welp, love me some Gems on VHS and this song definitely turned me on to the Mary Wallopers! I love your cover of Cod Liver and Orange Juice. The video of the song played in the bar is my favorite. I love the gathering of like minded people around musicians singing the song being played!! Cheers buds!
These guys are awesome. As a fellow Celt, the nationalism of this song makes you smile from ear to ear. Look forward to seeing GemsOnVHS come to Cymru (Wales) or Kernow (Cornwall) to check out some of our traditional music.
This was my mothers favourite party pieces ,she lived all her life on the side of the road ,She died 8 years ago on the 11/9 ,Mommys maiden name was Julia Joyce
Ive got Irish in me bones. That's why I think I have a love for this music. Most of my bloodline is from Yorkshire, Southern Ireland, Welsh and a random scatter of German 😂 .
Heard Charles once say "we do a bunch of real gritty rebel songs". Been waiting to hear some of those for awhile now. I am sure trying to launch a musical career is tough enough during a pandemic but you don't want to get known as some kind of republican new wolfe tones group if you are lookin for your own sound and image. But that being said well fuckin done, up the Mary Wallopers, and I hope to see Ireland be one nation and one people again someday.

@@rxa177 I bet you’re a blast at parties!
“To hell with the border, we’re in the free state” this gives me an insane amount of goosebumps for some reason
strong words
Tiocfaidh ár lá
originally - to hell with the black north, we're in the free state
Same
The original lyrics are "to hell with the black north, we're in the freestate" this edition is more hopeful I think
Absolute banger , one of my favourite songs ever . I have listened to this 50+ times
Yeah Im always coming back to this one.
Future of irish folk music, mighty band, best a luck to them
In a genre highly concerned with authenticity can happily confirm these guys are pure cracked. Dying to see them live again.
Their live streams are pure class! I'll jump on and watch no matter the time difference with Aus!

@@GemsOnVHS Buy me a beer if I'll ever visit Nashville and we're even haha
The outro is the traditional tune Sí Bheag, Sí Mhór. Nicely played!
I think you can do these corrections(but I could be wrong too):
Verse 1:
"We made up together" for "Made up together"
Verse 2:
"We walked all the day" for "Well they walked all the day"
"We hadn't the comfort of lying in straw" for "They hadn't the comfort of lying in the straw"
Verse 3:
"The more that he yoked her" for "But the more that he yoked her"
Verse 4:
"Many's the fiver she won in the trots" for "And many the fiver she won in her trots"
Verse 5:
"put ye in jail" for "punch ye in jail"
Verse 6:
"put ye in jail boys for smuggling this while" for "punch ye in jail boys for smuggling a while"
@@galaxyanimal Agree with you on everything and changed it, thanks for that!
Wow wasn't expecting them to tack on "Sí bheg, sí mhor' at the end, pure class!
I knew that sounded familiar!!!
Thanks, I couldn't think of the nane of the tune, beautiful on the tenor banjo
Literally came here to say this. Was brilliant!
I'm about 2.5 years into studying scottish gaelic so I'm familiar with bheag and mhór, but may I ask what the Si means in Irish?
@@dubhmorafaik it means something like ‘fairy island’
“The thing is, it’s actually our castle” These guys are natural performers, looking forward to hearing more!
I keep coming back to this one. It's four and a half minutes of bliss. Thanks for getting it on record, fellas.
Thanks for sharing fellas. Reminds me of my time in Ireland. Love the band name as well.
My first time hearing irish folk and its awesome!
glad we could be ur first exposure
Welcome, there’s quite a rabbit hole to fall down with Irish folk music 😂
Congrats! I kinda envy you - remembering my first time hearing Irish Folk in 1973. A lifelong love ☘
thanks to this, i've discovered sam shackleton, lisa o'neill, lankum, the dubliners, liam weldon, dick gaughan, the high level ranters, the boys of the lough, and tony mac mahon, to name a few. this is no longer a rabbit hole, it's just where i live now.
Can’t stop listening to this and loads of Irish and Scottish folk getting in trouble at work cus me heads fkd with it all going round and round ❤😂
You guys rock, I’ve always loved folk music and you bring it to me. Best subscription I’ve ever made.
Glad to have you around

Class stuff lads! Great to see gems on VHS here in Ireland. Quality as always.

Beautiful. Performed with real guts and soul. Thanks for this, from a Tullamore lad living in Dundalk!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Top notch lads keep her lit
These lads were nothing short of a joy to listen to
"some people like to say that's the uk over there, but its not, what is it?... its Ireland still." made me feel a way.
Just recently came across the Mary Wallopers preparing for a trip to Ireland. They were not not playing at the time we visited but we listened to them driving in the car all through Ireland. xoxoxox them!
I cut my musical teeth on Irish folk music, so it's nice to see it on Gems. Sounds great; that tenor banjo has a RING to it!
"Some people over there have the nerve to call it the UK"
You boys call it the uk on your own tour date list!!!!!!!!!!!
Love your music boys, keep it up.
Looks like a scene from Fr Ted when the people approach over the hill !

Just discovered these guys, and I’m glad I did.
I just did too and found out they played a sold out show IN MY TOWN YESTERDAY. In Toronto I missed out LARGE
Pretty sure the song at the end with the banjo solo is Sí Beag Sí Mór, lovely version lads, Bail ó dhia ar an obair!
Been waiting for these recordings to start coming!
the pipeline has been wetted and they are slip sliding their way out now
@@GemsOnVHS visceral, love to hear it
The fact they haven't recorded this for an album upsets me so much

Sounds like a newfie tune to me. Great job b'ys!
Well Newfie is the 33rd county of Ireland, so why wouldn't it ha
Sí Beag Sí Mor at the end was lovely
Enjoyed this very much! Great sound and great lyrics!
The Mary Walloppers gave that old Witch a good wallopin this toime. Run Boiys run!
Unreal lads! Gems on VHS in Dundalk, almost as mad as Shaggy's wife being from The Town.
