RIP Phil Lynott (August 20, 1949 - January 4, 1986), aged 36 And RIP Gary Moore (April 4, 1952 - February 6, 2011), aged 58 You both will be remembered as legends.
@@eddiewinehosen6665 You do wear it as part of your uniform though. And I read about a guy whose bible in his jacket pocket caught a bullet, so there's that.
Gary and Phil brought out something special from each other. What a fabulous song and performance! I wish this had not been their last collaboration. Rest in peace, gentlemen.
@Dr Diablory Life can be awful at times. The wonderful Evelyn Glennie is deaf though and Mozart composed some of his best pieces when he couldn't hear. Saying that I'd probably lose my mind if I lost my hearing! All the best Dr. Diablory, hang on in there mate.
Absolut legendär und unerreichbar; RIP Phil Lynott and Gary Moore; ein Meisterstück! Beiden ist mit ihrer Musik die Flucht in die Unsterblichkeit gelungen.
One of the best hard rock songs ever written - it has everything, great melody, beat and vocals. The guitar solo is second to none complete with a brilliant scale to take the solo to a peak with delay to finish and the mandatory key change to take us into the final chorus. Since the song is centered around a military theme what better way to finish than incorporating 'Johnny Comes Marching Home' with the song ending with an explosion. Not withstanding the work they did together in Thin Lizzy Gary and Phil could have done so much more so it is tragic that both are deceased now - what a loss to the music world. 'Out in the Fields' will remain my all-time favourite hard rock songs.
With all due respect, it is protest-themed regarding the civil unrest in their homeland of Ireland at the time. Very much like what is happening here in the United States today. It was addressing religion and the dividing of the nation. Eerily and ironically, the song's protest theme is very relevant here in the U.S. of all countries, today in 2020. GARY and PHIL would be both appalled and saddened by what is happening here in the United States of America. ☹
I still remember seeing the video of this song for the first time in Greece, in a movie theater that was converted into a giant cafe, with the big ass movie screen still in place and playing music videos on that screen, through s projector. That was in 1985 when I was 20 years old. Here i am in 2024, and STILL listening to this song - and the rock songs from that era. Probably the best music decade.
I couldn't agree with you more. I remember INSTANTLY loving this song upon hearing it for the first time as a boy. A local DJ here played it often at the time it was released. But I could never understand why the song wasn't huge. At least here in the US. As often times, there is fantastic music that does well in Europe but goes almost completely unnoticed in the US. By the way, you can see this entire video unedited from beginning to end, with bonus footage, at GARY MOORE "Out In The Fields" Official Video, by Ovidiu Buzdugan Romcea. 😊
not that underrated actually....... it was a major hit back in the day...... infact, not sure, but this was probably the highest charting song Phil ever done...... that's why early MTV was such a great thing..... it helped a lot of talented musicians to market their music commercially...... it wasn't just pop crap on there like these days......
I so much miss my biker years. But I am so grateful that I was in the mix. So are my tears the tears of sorrow or tears of joy ?Thanks to all these groups for my fondest memories
Rest in peace Gary Moore and Phil lynott two great Irish musicians made some wonderful music and songs my two favourite Irish singers by far ❤️ ♥️ 🎶 🥁🎸📀🇮🇪☘️I still listen to their music to this very day god rest there souls respect Karen 🙏⛪️📿🕯🕊💔🙌xxxx
Sad to see these two guys are no longer with us, but Phil and Gary they pretty well rocked hard and played hard with their music over the years. Both very fine musicians.
They both had very different voices. Phil with his cool groovy style and Gary sang with more volume but a lot of melody. But you cannot say this one is better. It s a different way to sing.
Two of the greatest Irish rock legends that ever lived, I am so proud of them and that I got to see Phil Lynott and Gary Moore play the Ulster Hall in December 1984 great memories. R.l.P. Phil and Gary. You will never be forgotten?
@Darryl Payne Born in England raised and Bred in Ireland also referred to as Irish look it up!!!! I was born in London yet raised and Bred in Scotland been here all my life and called Scottish......
A recent documentary on Sky Arts about Phil showed an interview he did with some dozy woman who said he was British. His reply was "I'm oirish" If the great Lynott says he's oirish then he's oirish. Spike Milligan was born in India but he was always Irish.
Not a day goes by when I don't listen to this!! I was fortunate to see Gary before his untimely passing.. That memory of his brilliance, warmth & sheer magnitism stays with me forever!!!🤘🤘 Rock !! Wherever you both maybe guys.. You've left us with your legacy!! Sadly missed.. Always with us!!🤘🤘✊✊💔💔💔🖤🖤❤❤
I saw Gary Moore on the alive in 85 tour at Manchester Apollo Phil Lynott came on for the encore. Little did we know he would be gone shortly after. So sad
Gary Moore and Phil lynott are two legends Gary Moore is the best guitarist of all time rest in peace Gary Moore and Phil lynott you are both gone but not forgotten
ABSOLUT MASTERPIECE 💯‼️❤️ I REMEMBER I WAS A KID AND DRIVE WITH MY BMX AND GOT EVERYTIME THIS SONG IN MY HEAD.. RESTBIN POWER BROTHERS LEGENDS..THX FOR THIS BOMB SONG❤️❤️❤️❤️
Two incredibly talented guys! Personally this is my all time favorite song. It's just made to perfection, the solo, the scales, the bass, superior... Gary and Phil gave everything to make the rock music better and they did, that's why they will always be remembered! Rest in peace, gentlemen!
As Belfast was my home since the late 60s, I can't believe those who say Gary doesn't deserve a statue in the city. He's a positive role model - what more do you want?
R u kidding who’s listening 2024 and beyond 2 of the world’s best musicians LEGENDS!!!!
ages this song
will keep on listening...

Listening in Australia 🦘
Happy 75th Birthday Phil 🎤🤘 Miss You Both RIP Phil & Gary 🎸🤘🥀
Only if it was from birth, he didn't live long to grow old, the drugs didn't let him
The world has missed this kind of music. Guys, rest in peace...
1984 when all the best albums where released🤘🏻 I remember when I bought this lp
Rest in piece
@@jockebranzell1056 1988 was even better
They ain't restin' pal - they are ROCKIN'

Gary Moore was one of the most underrated guitarists I thought he was terrific.
Underrated? Bullshit!
Yup, thats a fact, but I think this is a windup!!
Not at all underrated. Respected by all.
Totally agree, very underrated.
Players know
Heard this sing today in my carradio for the first time! Its so incredible! So, anybody listening to this in 2021 - out in the fields?

Phil and Gary were just amazing together, inspiring even.
""Agree""
I miss them both. Phil's smokey voice and Gary's blistering guitar were and still are pure magic.
Absolutely. I'm 55. I was 18.
Agreed, search for Phil staying at Gary's house in Ballybeen, it's a great story.
No autotune just pure talent amazing song R.I.P to both of these very talented artists
I mean, every band in the mental genre don't use autotune since the lead is so important...
You are CORRECT !!!!! class
Yes 😊
GARY MOORE ONE OF THE GREATEST PLAYERS LAST 50 YEARS
More than thirty years later this song is still so powerful. Phil and Gary were such bad-ass legends.
Any individual who put a thumbs down to this deserves the curse of deafness. Phil and Gary rock!
Gary does, never liked Phil
Curse of deafness 😂😂👌
They don't.

Powerful song in words and music. And I cannot tell you how much I miss Moore and Lynott.
Magnificent solo...love the ascending 4's scale in the middle (great song too!). Gary Moore is one of my favourite guitarists of all time.
Strong as the spirit of a nation this tune is. "No flag or uniform, no colour or religion ever stopped the bullet from a gun."

I was thinking just the same. Pleasantly surprised by his voice.
I just found out today its actually Glenn Hughes singing on this. I thought that voice sounded familiar.
Still a classic nearly 40 years on. Two legends and great musicians. RIP
Beyond masterpiece
I am 66 from sweden and love this song ❤
This is a proper rock classic ...
Unfortunately, no-one has managed to adequately fill the void left by Gary Moore’s passing - R.I.P.
No-one will ever fill their void.
Who is listening to this masterpiece in 2024😮

Moore was not only a fantastic guitarist but an amazing vocalist as well.
Both died way to early. RIP Love you guys.
