- My favourite version of this great song.
Live on the Late Late Show from 1984. With Barney McKenna and John Sheahan playing the banjo and whistle from the audience. - เพลง
My mother was a Kerry woman, born in 1926, who just passed today 12/1/21 at about 3pm. For the last few years as her health declined, this was one of the few songs that could make her sing and clap her hands. God bless the Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem. They were the soundtrack of my youth, and long after they had all passed were still making people happy. I thank them for the joy they have brought to my mother, and to me.
I'm happy to hear that, Liam and Tommy, best ever, and the group, the greatest
Castle Isle, Kerry
My grandfather was from Kerry born in 1937. He loved this song. I learned how to play it for him and to see him light up and start singing is a memory I hold close. He passed barely a week before your mom.
may ya mom r i p, i too grew up on the clancy brothers
My husband just passed away 24/12/2022..Frozen with grief 💔 listening to our favorite songs and this is surely up there.Gleneagle in Kerry in the early eighties introduced us to such wonderful artists the Fureys, Makem & Clancy etc.Such memories ❤ Some of them have passed on but their music lives on in our hearts. The tears are flowing my heart is sore but the memories I have are just beautiful.Gods blessings to all that have lost dear one's this Christmas it's painful 💔 I hope 2023 blows in gently & is kind to us all.x
All passed on now . . . Rest in peace lads.
Great comment, God bless them all❤️💜💜💜
John Sheahan, playing tin whistle on this, is still amongst the living...
Rip men 🙏🙏
I remember seeing one of their funerals on tv in Ireland and the amazing rainbow over the horizon. It made me 😢
@@robertflint2549 See - tin whistles are good forya
My twin boys landed into this world at 26 weeks - 14 weeks early, they're now 35 weeks old and thanks be to God thriving - every day for the last 9 weeks in hospital I have sang this song to them and I can see with my own eyes how soothing Liam Clancy's music is, It truly is music for the soul.
Happy saint Paddy's day. 50 % irish (McKeon) 50 % scandinavian.
Montana USA living. Brings tears to my eyes everytime
PutangClan11. Great mixture, Irish and Viking. Greetings from Ireland.
When I was 19 at Pierce College in the SFV I got the nerve to ask out a girl in my American history class. She was pretty as all get out and I was sure I would never go out with me. Boy was I surprised when she said yes. So I got tickets for the Clancy Brothers who were performing at the Santa Monica Civic. I had all their records; she had never heard of them. But boy did she and I loved them and she put her head on my shoulders as they played this song. I'll never forget the moment as long as I live. We ended up dating for a few years and had a great time together and this was our theme song. I could play the guitar, she could play the piano and we always sang this song; it was our favorite. Kelly works as a cultural attache in a foreign land. It was a moment to remember and made life worth living thanks to the Clancy Brothers.
Lovely little story .
This brought a tear to my eyes. Beautiful words.
Steve Roberts I wish I could give you 100 thumbs up. Great memory for you. Cheers.
What great memories, so precious..... keep them forever.
Did yi bang her in the end or what?
Who else recognized Barney McKenna, and John Sheahan from the legendary Dubliners joining with instruments from the crowd. Ronnie Drew is behind them singing along. Therefore, fortunately not all the men in this great video have passed away, as many have noted. John Sheahan (playing the tin whistle) is thankfully still with us, and if you follow his recent actions, is instructing musicians today how to sing the great old songs correctly and how not to. God Bless them all, both living and those who've gone home.
I recognized them. & was happy to see them. They played in America (Clancy Bros and Tommy Makem)
Paddy Reilly as well
Is that Paddy Reilly next to Ronnie?
Every November 10th, I listen to this in memory of my dad.. He LOVED the Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem.. Love YOU DAD
Cdntrvler54 My father used to play The Clancy Brothers all the time. I listen to them every day, especially on November 4th. That was his birthday.
The likes of these men will never be in Ireland again, thank God I lived in the ire Eire. 🇮🇪
Lovely song 🍺
God bless your dad he had wonderful taste, for me the greatest band ever❤️
So many hearts your way. I was wishing I could go back to before they all past then I read your comment and the dam just burst. Warm hugs to you, I'm sure he's with the boys enjoying good music and story telling where the Irish red ale is ever flowing. O the summer time has come
And the trees are sweetly bloomin'
And the wild mountain thyme
Grows around the bloomin' heather
Will ye go lassie go?
And we'll all go together
To pull wild mountain thyme
All around the bloomin' heather
Will ye go lassie go?
I will build my love a bower
By a cool crystal fountain
And around it I will pile
All the wild flowers from the mountain
Will ye go lassie go?
And we'll all go together
To pull wild mountain thyme
All around the bloomin' heather
Will ye go lassie go?
If my true love should not come
Then I'll surely find another
To pull wild mountain mountain thyme
All around the bloomin' heather
Will ye go lassie go
And we'll all go together
To pull wild mountain thyme
All around the bloomin' heather
Will ye go lassie go?
And we'll all go together
To pull wild mountain thyme
All around the bloomin' heather
Will ye go lassie go?
A friend of mine was killed. She was hit by a car at 7:45 p.m on 31st December 2018 as she crossed the road. She suffered severe brain damage after hitting her head on a metal railing. She was barely sixteen, and she didn't live to see 2019.
This song was sung at her funeral, I was one of the music students who sang this. If it had been anyone else, she would also have been singing with us.
We will never forget you, Róisín. Rest In Peace.
RIP
Grew up with them, thanks to my dad. Went to see them in concert when I was VERY young; around 6. I remember how they filled the stage (& the room) with their presences. Paddy danced to Port Lairge ( unsure of spelling). They are all gone now, my parents included, but some 60 years down the road, this cold night has just gotten a little warmer with some wonderful memories.

Glad I'm not alone! 🥲@@PatrickCaddell-et7uj
54 dislikes, there's just no accounting for taste or the lack of it. I've met them all may they rest in peace.
I agree. People who dislike this song have no soul..
Are they ALL dead now? I've got two albums by them, originally released in '56 and '59.
It is up to 188 miserable losers
@@daragildea7434 yes it is such a sad loss forever
Probably the Irish government who are trying to replace the Irish people
You know, when I was just a teenager, I discovered the Beatles, and listened to them all the time, thinking that they were pretty cool. Then I grew up and discovered The Clancy Brothers and Mr. Makem, and I got down on my knees and thanked God that the Irish invaded the United States before the English did.
Luv xxx
Beautiful brilliant men. So proud to be irish
A very beautiful song sung by true legends
Very beautiful... As only Irish songs can sound
Quite possibly the most perfect example of how to gently coerce a crowd into a singalong
This is also my favorite version of this song. We grew up with the Clancy Brothers music. We played and sang this at my father's funeral last June. See you on the green of Ireland Dad.
I'm related to them
When my time comes on this earth I want this song sung at my gathering.
Will Ye Go Lassie Go.
Wow, I'm sitting in a hotel room in Sweden, been living in England for 35 years - feeling weirdly nostalgic. Haven't heard these guys in years. Beautiful.
The guys from The Dubliners playing along, brilliant.
Sheer beauty. Almost impossible not to cry listening to this
What a song. Rest in peace men 💚
They will live on as long as long we remember them 🙏
🇮🇪🇨🇮the Clancy Brothers and Makem were just amazing and I enjoyed their music sooooo much , I miss them a lot
This video epitomises a lost generation, I grew up listening to and singing Irish songs mostly sung by these two bands. I don't think we will ever see the like again (I certainly won't anyways) God love you.
I miss them and loved their music for more than 40 years. I never tire of it or them. Thanks, boys, for some many hours of wonderful music. And thanks to those who post these videos.
May God be good to them all. I watched it as a child but i still appreciated it. and the Dubliners and Paddy Reilly, playing in the audience! Just ,missing Luke, Ciaran & Jim
Rest in peace.. beautiful music will always live in my Irish heart ❤️
I feel so lonely not being around people who don't share my culture and music.
+Geoffrey Harris Ack. I feel the same way. If I tried to play stuff like this for my friends, they just wouldn't be interested. Sigh...
+Calamity Joe Tell me some more of the sort of music you like. I like oldies rock, classical, blue grass, celtic, rennaissance and vocal polyphony. I should have written that I feel so lonely not being around people who share my culture and music.
I know how it feels!! it's a sad feeling..
NOT TO WORRY THERE ARE MANY LIKE US ,IT IS JUST THAT THIS KIND OF MUSIC TOUCHES THE SOUL. WITH US,THANKS AND LOVE FROM ISRAEL.
There are facebook groups where you can share this type of music and it will be appreciated!Shareing now to Forgotten Ireland
such a timeless song RIP THE CLANCY BROTHERS AND TOMMY MAKEM
Tommy Makem had a wonderful voice as did the rest of these boys.
What a time to have been alive.
This piece is an oldtimer for me but I always love to hear the Clancy brothers and Tommy Makem again and again. With special thanks from Israel !
Tommys voice will always echoe true the valleys of Ireland as too the Clancys will never be forgotten. Thanks for all you have given us.
I'm from Texas USA, and I also come from a long Welsh background. These guys kinda wrench my heart and make me proud of my Welsh ancestory.
These guys prove that the Welsh Celtic singers are the best in all the world.
These fellas are Irish to the core
Lovely rare combination with The Dubliners in the audience playing instruments and the Clancy brothers on stage. Beautiful.
Masterpiece! Beautiful thoughts of childhood, massive emotion. Boys, we miss you!!!
I am Irish/Scotch and remember this as a small boy.
This tin whistle can melt my heart!
Hard to believe they're all gone...
Those boys will never be gone, they're eternal. They'll live on in the hearts of anybody that ever heard them.
The . DC DC
+brew667 well said lad
Showed the Dubliners there and equally sad they're gone as well
They are the sea now.
Proud to be Irish 👊
Irish stuff touches someone's heart.
Tonson Hololo this is Scottish
Ewan McNairn They're irish , aren't they ? the clancy brother's origin is in Ireland. and their music is irish folk. based on Wikipedia.
Ewan McNairn Ah , I get it. what you mean is a song. yes it's Scottish. I've read its information just now . the song was sung in Scotland for a long period of time and was also popular in Ireland.
Ewan McNairn thank you
My feelings exactly. That is why I sang my parents into their deaths. Dad's last breath was to the ending of Danny Boy, his favorite song! Near the end I always sang Red Is the Road to him as I played this video
This was my mam,s favourite song.R.I.P. lovely lady.Miss you.Love you.❤😇❤
I saw these boys in concert way back in the 60s. One of the best and most fun concerts I’ve ever seen.
Unbelievable music - thank you boys, from Australia, always forever!!
All gone from us..Part of my childhood..They were "The Beatles" of the folk scene in the 60's. Became an overnight success story after an appearance on the Ed Sullivan Show in New York.
Un monument de la musique ! A noter au premier rang les autres "héros" : les Dubliners !
This song brings a tear to me eye, awesome to see John and Barney join in !!!
Tommy Makem had one of of the most gorgeous voices ever
Totally agree with you Patricia loved his voice .
This is like being in heaven. They were the greatest!! I will always miss them and I was lucky enough to see them live in NYC.
Angels sing and devas dance as they welcome this fine man into heavenly peace. The Father Himself blesses Liam with a smile.
Magic right there..☘️💚
Very sad to think these men are all gone now.legends loved by all.apart from john joining in on the whistle.
This song is so beautiful that I can't stop listening to it. And I can't stop crying.
Oh for a pint of Guinness and a tear.
Oh do go to a pub and drink a good Pint of Guinness or indeed a pint of Semiotics Ale
Ive been listening to their music all of my life and am so thankful for the love , laughter, joy and sorrow of their many songs and story's. This was always my favorite. I miss these boy so much, especially Sweet Liam. I'm sure they're keeping my father entertained till we're all able to meet up again someday soon.
Paddy Reilly is still with us! God bless him!
Best version by far,raw
Just getting reading for Work in Sydney, It’s 4am , I am a Irish emigrant and this popped into my head , I think it’s going to be a good day.
Hello and thank you from cork Ireland ☘☘☘
saw Clancy/Makem concert in Dublin in 1981. Lucky me.
Simply beautiful. God bless you my brothers. 😥
Crazy to think the dubliners were in the crowd singing and playing along with them
To bring such a heart beat to the man in 2020 and beyond is a beautiful gift
A great Scottish song. A song of romance and love. Tommy Makem is a legend.
No... this is irish composed by the mcpeake brothers from Belfast
song brings me to tears every time.
GREAT INSPIRATION ,,,,BEAUTIFUL GOD BLESS YOU LADS ,,,FROM BEIRUT LEBANON,,,,
best song ever ,and version
this will sound weird but here it goes.........I'm a 12 year old girl.most of my friends watch pop/rap/dance. my friends think I also like them genres as I listen to them with NY friends . but when I go home u actually listen to Irish trad/folk songs and don't really like pop up. UP THE IRISH 👌
+Robyn Newman That's because you truly love music.(Pick up an instrument or try your hand at singing.)
Calamity Joe I play tin whistle and piano I also sing a little ✌👌💓
Dear Robyn: 'Tis in all Irish blood to sing from our hearts and to recognize the beauty of music that touches us. May you keep singing as long as you breathe. As I walk songs come to me from the land, the trees, and especially from the sea, lakes and rivers!
Melissa Duffy lovely words ! ❤
Wonderful Melissa! I'm an English gentleman and how much I love Ireland, the people, the music, everything Irish and of course the (Clancy brothers).
How can you find a better group of lads than the Clancy's and Makem.....classic
For sure.
Did you notice not only Barney and John, but Ronnie and Paddy singing along? Wonderful!
Beautiful song and lyrics to rest in peace
my dad was from cork and was a old ira man r i p
This song sounds so familiar and natural and resonant.
I also grew up with the Clancy brothers great memories
Today is my parents 70th wedding anniversary. My dad died in October. It’s their first anniversary together in 16 years. I love them and thank them for bringing the Clancy Brothers music into my life💕
THIS MUSIC CONTINUES TO TEAR THE HEART OUT OF ME. TOO MANY YEARS HAVE PASSED SINCE I FIRST HEARD 'HELLISH AND HEARTY.' TOO MANY YEARS GONE AND NOW THEY TOO. RIP.
I've said it before and I'll say it again -you can't beat a classic!!
Cant beat the Olancy Bros w/ Tommy Makem, they make it heart tugging!
I used to take a co Cork girl to see them. I miss her even now Kathleen Lane still love you
I sang Go Lassie Go Tonight at our local Adelaide folk club singers session - it was lovely with everyone joining in. It is not a past song - its is sung everywhere. I learnt it from my nana.
Such a loss to the music world..All gone ..May they all rest in peace.
2020 and this is still a belter they don't make Dem like they used to 😎
How could anyone dislike this? I have a lumping my throat, wonderful stuff.
Genauso stehen sie vor Gott und singen...und der Himmel weint. Was kein anderer schafft, sie können es alle 4, sie berühren Dein Herz und der Song soll niemals enden diese Harmonie ist unbeschreiblich. Man möchte sich einfach dazustellen.
Thank you for the Music RIP
RIP, Liam Clancy, one of the last of a small band of torpedoes who believed that life is a wondrous journey with a grace and beauty well worth singing about.
i fell in love with pat mellett listening to the clancy brothers and tommy makem in 1964. she's gone now as are all of them and i love them all yet.
john r in iowa.
My heart is hurting and I needed this!
Glad it lifted your heart Sheri. I grew up in an Irish family in Birmingham and the Clancy's were always playing in our house.

Absolutely Magical.
Ya don't get tired of listening to that.
