    I've been looking hither & yon for this song for 35 years. I'd heard a fella sing it at a gathering with my dad and a bunch of other musicians. All gone now. No idea who that fella was way back in '86 now, but the refrain & very last stanza was stuck in the back of my head now for a 1/3rd of a century begging to be known once again in it's complete glory. I'd searched for it now & again. Asked many irish folks if they'd' heard or knew of it. googled it. Asked in special forums after it to no avail. My wife came across it on tictok, fowarded it to me...And for but for moment I flashed back to that day. The sights. The smells. The music. One of my few pleasant memories of my father.
    Thank you.
    Thank you
    Thank you

      This was a special song for my grandma and my dad who both have passed away. I play the song and I feel like I am with them again. My heart is with you

    One of my favorite songs! I was a wildland firefighter for several seasons and if you ever want to understand the people who get into that lifestyle, then listen to this song.

    The "nightclub" in my podunk town set a sped-up version of this to some techno beatz and ALL the Newfie chicks hit the dance floor when it came on.
    I miss that place so much...

    I’ve heard a lot of versions of the song, yet yours is the one I enjoy the most; it has sort of a tavern vibe where everyone could join and sing together, also your voice is lit as hell!!! Keep doing it

    Beautiful! I have a half an hour drive to work, and I usually put on one of your songs and play it on repeat the whole drive there. It's very soothing to hear early in the morning, and puts me in a good mood before work. Thank you so much!

    I love the song. In your lyrics, you wrote: "Where the company, it was kind", but sang "Where the company did prove kind". I actually prefer the latter. I just figured I'd point it out, since it threw me off a bit when trying to learn the song.

    I'm struggling to find the meaning of the song, as beautiful as it is. Is it saying it's better to live risky and fail or safe and fail? Or is that not it at all?

    • @persianprince6213
      @persianprince6213 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      first one being risky living in the moment and standing for what you believe in and want

    • @persianprince6213
