Barry McGuire (from the New Christy Minsrels, a folk group in the US) Barry wrote this protest song which is completely relevant today. I met Barry a few years back in the tiny village of Fairfax, in the San Francisco Bay Area. I still remember every word of this song which was released in the 60's when i was in high school.
Thankyou for posting. I thought I knew all the Pogue songs - I saw them plenty of times in London back in the day - but this is a new one to me. Thanks for sharing.
People must remember, some of the tracks on the Pogues box set aren't quite 'finished'. This is how the die-hard fans demanded it...to include stuff like this.
I used to go to AA meetings , Jack , but I can't and don't intend to stop drinking...all we talked about was drinking...jeeez , it was enough to turn me back to drinking , this to my ears is ace :)
Saw Shane solo at a festival in Austria, 15 years ago... drunk like a sponge, barfed on the stage, wasn't able to talk, but VERY able to sing... Can't believe the bloke's still alive. Good for him, though. I guess.
pf slone the eve of Destruction is my favourite song. it's so true it's on it's way round again as the government America and certain other countries . are having a ball and Scotland's STUCK in the middle of the wrath. great listening and so to the point. but ANOTHER Dilemma this time my friend. and do believe that we're on the eve of Destruction.

Hey, I have sang in various degrees of being drunk...is that the right phrase? And totally sober. ...As well. And here, a big karaoke scene, massive. And my gf films everything I sing, and...Hey she sings like an angel... But shit, when I see and hear the fxxking recordings of myself... I always sound shit: sober, tipsy, drunk, really drunk, shit faced... So bless Shane Patrick Lysaght MacGowan Best
@CrankCase08 Not really. I heard this version first, and I prefer it. Mostly because of the stronger rhythmic element. I prefer Shane's voice too, but I'll admit, that's an acquired taste.
Another outake from the hells ditch sessions. This, Aisling, Donegal express and NW3 were never finished due the state Shane was in. I’m convinced that the band was quite creative in this period and had they had a proper break and allowed Shane to get proper help, this album could have been much better. Spider has said as much himself
if you don't like the pogues..you are probably dead inside......i suggest knitting or joining the amish community....although i'm sure the amish (and knitters) probably like the pogues too...they appeal to all God's children...except the protestants...sometimes...although i'm protestant...i still like them......hmmm

what a great interpretation. shane is so unique and great.
Barry McGuire sings it like it's the eve of destruction.
Shane Mcgowan sings it like it's the next day.

Wow! I couldn't imagine anyone covering this after the ferocity of Barry McGuires version. Shane pulls it off!!!!
Never underestimate the power of a drunk Irishman, they get shit done.
Maybe you should listen to Lemmy's version. th-cam.com/video/7VYAkK18Rx4/w-d-xo.html

The late PF Sloan wrote Eve of Destruction
Barry might own it but he didn't write this song.
This song is as corny now as it was then.
I love this. I need to be this drunk sometimes when I think about the world . . .Thank you for posting!
WorLDs gOt DeCideDLy WoRsE iN 2020
Shane’s eve of destruction is a self-reflection. Still love this tune
Ya know,..I now believe these guys can do anything.I mean,..I love this song!!

Bloody great version of a brilliant song. Downunder South Australia

Excellent
Steve. I like this song and the way he sings it. I sound like this sometimes. Awesome, cool DADDY-O. ✌😎✌😏✌🌻🌻
shane is the man.. drink and then drink more...
I used to go to AA meetings , Jack , but I can't and don't intend to stop drinking...all we talked about was drinking...jeeez , it was enough to turn me back to drinking , this to my ears is ace :)

He´s great, in this way the world have to be ...
The good old days
Yeah !
I honestly think Shane wouldn't give a fuck if it was the eve of destruction.
Versione magnifica
Luv
Saw Shane solo at a festival in Austria, 15 years ago... drunk like a sponge, barfed on the stage, wasn't able to talk, but VERY able to sing...
Can't believe the bloke's still alive.
Good for him, though.
I guess.
Quality.!! x
1 can tell McGowan's vocal from the thousands!...
Thanks Pogues
I am a huge Pogues fan, but I prefer the punk rock version by The Dickies.
Forgotten Rebels recorded a good one as well.
¿Por que cojones me gustan tanto de The Pogues?
class
Me too.
@theholyone6 One man in a rock band sober, let alone an Irishman. top bunch of lads
PF Sloan's lyric's are right up there with Phil Chevron and Shane Macgown.
this is great. pathos.
CRAP

@SwindonByf - thank you from us all for that tip, mate, gooooooooooood one!
SwindonByf. Your da man. a thanks to you for all The Pogues feeds
fucking class!
ya cant beat the pogues,perfect drinking music!
awesome version, to each his own. The Pogues were under rated to hell and back. Bit like the Sportz in Australia
sounds like Shane is on the eve of destruction
Unlike these days, when he is on the evening after destruction.
construction! listen!
Oh, fuck off.
Isn't he always?
No problem Shane is great, I respect that you'd want to defend him
Mac can defend himself.
i like
How is it I've never heard this song before...I thought I've heard all songs by the Pogues.
its a cover of a barry mquire track
Covered by Barry McGuire. P.F. Sloan wrote it
Thats becouse it is not song by the Pogues he he he !
Melcome Hard To Believe
Sad that it will be, indeed.
Don't really know why this song needs a cover. I got the message the first time. Not that it's obsolete or anything like that.
@Cryptonwheezer good one mate!
Itwont always be contemporry. one day it will be true.
The eve of the hangover.
I love the Pogues but I prefer the original version of this.
Great song and covered by many artists. No big deal if you don't agree but would that be the point of the song?
Hey, I have sang in various degrees of being drunk...is that the right phrase? And totally sober. ...As well. And here, a big karaoke scene, massive. And my gf films everything I sing, and...Hey she sings like an angel...
But shit, when I see and hear the fxxking recordings of myself... I always sound shit: sober, tipsy, drunk, really drunk, shit faced...
So bless Shane Patrick Lysaght MacGowan
Best
Go Shane Go!!! Fucking love this man and I'm not gay neither.
@MsTresana hahaha well said
Appropriate currently 02-24-2022
no shit !!!this is killer......tanx 4 psting
wow
thought this was a johny thunders song, but now that I listen it does sound like Dylan.
@000TrueGrit000
It's not a Bob Dylan song, it's by Barry McGuire.
This sounds like a parody, and we all know why.
Wish they had done a sober version of this😂still amazing though!
I wouldn't bet much money that the original pogues ever did a completely sober version on any of their songs.
Listen to Barry McGuire singing it, you will get your sober version.
Yea Shit!!!
That was probably his idea of sober
Oh so true
Both may be true. It's just a matter of perspective; Plus... you know... the "give a fuck" factor.
Drunk ? Yes. Nobody else could fo it.
So what? The man is a genious. A lot of rock stars use heroin and you still listen to them.
Same backing but Bob Dylan
sounds like easy 2 gallons of mc evan.. and i am from bohemian forest after my 5th Budweiser from Budweis
Could almost be a CLASH cover!
He does sound like joe strummer
... or in his.
You misunderstand me. I mean he's a westerner as in he's from "the West" meaning a Western European nation not a specific area in Ireland or the U.K.
@xXxWhiteWarriorxXx Umm, anything he sings is the 'drunken version.'
@ThomaSKAptijn Actually I like this version better
@goji2099 Shane Mcgowan sober? not going to happen in our lifetime
Anyone know when this was recorded?
At the end of the world
@ravenwing613 lol

oh shit where is the german beer????!!!!!!!!
@catalinsaftoiu
which one is shane?
let me guess...
the goofball with the jug ears?
drink in one hand, ciggy in the other?
if your on the eve of destruction why not stay permanently pissed, you'll know nothing about it, a bit like mcgowan. lol.
Only for Prisoners
I love The Pogues, but honestly I do prefer the Dickies or the Forgotten Rebels version of this song.
@catalinsaftoiu and you dont lol
You just don't get it.
Regardless of whether or not that theory has any legitimacy, it doesn't apply here because both Shan MacGowan and Barry McGuire are Westerners
if you don't like the pogues..you are probably dead inside......i suggest knitting or joining the amish community....although i'm sure the amish (and knitters) probably like the pogues too...they appeal to all God's children...except the protestants...sometimes...although i'm protestant...i still like them......hmmm
Only if you'll join me hahahaha
