The Dubliners - Rocky Road To Dublin

[gonzasabbath]

Now be a nice lad an'gimme some whiskey, will ya?

[derrickwallace53]

Love this piece

[Chizo5791]

@ImNewAndHere2Stay what a sweeping generalisation that everyone outside Dublin hates Dublin people, and about what you said that nobody famous ever came out of Dublin...... BONO?????? He not not famous enough for you???? Your a degenerate

[blaablaa256]

Proud to be Irish and from Dublin

[ImNewAndHere2Stay]

@blaablaa256 love Ireland-hate dubs though.no dub is proper Irish!

no famous Irish person even came from dublin, no-one that changed our nation's history. If im being brutally honest, dubs let down the rest of the country.Ireland is adored for their landscape, history and heritage, and dublin just tries to ruin it. i fucking hate dubs, infact, everyone outside dublin hates dublin, even though im dating a dub daughter of a hardcore gaa fan. LOVE IRELAND-keep it irish,not dub

[danielelpajas]

Nice

[wenoyol123]

It's a great song but no matter how often I watch it the guy at 1:13 keeps creeping me out *shiver*

[VoiceOfTheEmpeor]

@wenoyol123 Obviously you have not watched Barbossa enough...

[SCSagex]

If you learn to sing this song like them you're a god :P especially if you're not from the uk

[TheRetardsUnion]

[MrCobberss]

@Thrawn6211 I'm so white that I glow in the dark. What of it?

Uninteligible, but nice

[ghullieman]

Im not irish but I have to dancccce

[DeWe3107]

@ghullieman me too :)

[ChirstamsLover]

How to know you're Irish

4. You have natural sea legs.

3. You have a high tolerance for alcohol.

2. You can keep a perfect beat.

1. You can't do your homework while listening to the Dubliners because you'll get distracted and start dancing or write a comment about how you can't get your homework done because youre dancing.

[ersoubi]

@ChirstamsLover Well, then, instead of Greek, I am Irish!

[Thrawn6211]

@ChirstamsLover 5. You so sunburnt that you look like an apple, and you get LESS tan.

[MrChimochay]

I'm drunk now..

[ttwwiilliigghhttppuu]

[Ancient1903]

[TheMrCALEX]

19 persone che sicuramente avranno il gusto per l'orrido...

[einherjen]

Wow, what an energy! Nowadays techno and dance go home. You were beaten by 5 greybeaded men, hah!

[mike129995]

Help! Cant stop listening to this awesome song.

[kopackjm]

19 people have no souls. If you have a soul, you LOVE Irish music.

[wenoyol123]

@ScottyBGUFC yeah me to anly the eyes and glasses dont match

Btw great song !!!!!!!

[GetOnTheFloor82]

C'MON THE DUBS!!

[MsTommyknocker]

Aye......

[catrulerofdeath]

HOLY CRAP! IT'S POSSIBLE TO SING THIS LIVE?!

[imspotlessunderneath]

Listen, I'm sick of Liverpool getting blamed for everything.

How come yer man on the road lands in hollyhead and the lands again 70 miles away in liverpool where he is assaulted. Now I'm not a barrister but I'm sure I could easily defend those charged with this offence, There are clearly discrepencies in the statement of yer man. I am scouse Irish but I hate injustice. Mick

[MrGloz77]

@highkingofireland200the high kings are so fine i agree, but they're four singers. sean sings by himself, and so the great luke...maybe he has an oxigen bottle hide in the guitar...ah, today is the 15th time i listen this song and the day is not over yet...

[latenightpilgrim]

Heard this sung in Ireland by the Merry Ploughboys.....v v good...go see em!

[MrGloz77]

19 people have lost the road to dublin...

[SpiritiSancti]

@MrGloz77 Or took the asphalt road instead of the Rocky Road :/

[SladeForelly]

One, two, three, four five...

[ulty77]

jaysus how can he breathe.... class shim

[ScottyBGUFC]

Anyone else think that the gentleman singing into the camera from 1.09 looks like Barbosa from Pirates of the Caribbean?

[vinceded]

I have never in my life heard someone use their voice so much like a real music instrument as Sean does in this video. Absolutely brilliant. The way he sings specially the last verse makes his voice mix in so thoroughly with the song that it almost feels like there are 2 violins playing. Really really brilliant.

[Davyen]

Napierdalać step irlandzki! :D

[definenormal087]

I love old men who play music.

[westlag]

@definenormal087 Old men who play music ? it's because we've had a long time to practice

[bastimouse]

@definenormal087 me too

[brownies3214]

Old school rap!

[TheHillbillyHermitt1]

The live version from the early 80's with Luke Kelly is the greatest version... This is 2nd

[MichelleSeven]

The Dubliners made the version of Rocky Road to Dublin in Sherlock Holmes? =)

[XxpurplemystxX]

I agree with highkingofireland. In my opinion the dubliners are the best.

[dcox421]

19 people have no soul

[Fireheart528]

@dcox421 19 people are the british boys who got hit in the head with a shellaleigh.

[N00BVIDEOSFAIL]

Sherlock holmes theme song

[HERMIONExCANTxDRAW]

GEE I WONDER IF THIS BAND IS IRISH. I'M GETTING THAT SUBTLE VIBE.

[EastCoastJew]

[DarthLlama226]

[BoudiccaBlanc]

@EastCoastJew

[fohawk871]

@BoudiccaBlanc broduil as gaeilge. how do you put the small apostraphe over the a. from IRISHMAN to IRISHMAN

[BoudiccaBlanc]

@fohawk871

There is a way to do it on some keyboards.

I Googled the word and c+p

[hervye66]

You know you're proficient in English when you can sing this song and make it understandable. The Dubliners are untouchable. I can listen to this all day.

[sheena616]

@hervye66 same for me!

[aldoValens]

Quality

[glaveror]

I can't resist it-that Lady Gaga chick doesn't have as much lyrics on her album...damn am I drunk :D

[brandocv]

@Xerx555 being irish is the second requirement, otherwise we'd have seen Jesus Christ and Jerry Garcia playing along ..

[DuckwalkSupreme]

@brandocv Forget ye not Chuck Norris.

[Hackman9]

Are people fkn crazy, how can u hate this, it says The Dubliners, what are waiting to hear, this is great music, dont like dont hear it a go dislike your mothers

[ChiniKini]

requires pure skills.. not the shit we listen to those days..

[mturpin100]

you gotta be hammered to understand what they are sayin

[jericho51166]

Great performance! And to all those who can't understand: just listen to it a few times!

[AkiraXisAnimanX]

Love the song even if i dont understand a word that comes out of their mouth 1-2-3-4-5 :D

[biagiotti2006]

So in all honesty, is this where American country music comes from? I can almost see the connection, sort of.

[BoudiccaBlanc]

@biagiotti2006 Yes. :-)

What Americans call "country music" began with the Highland Scots who settled in th Appalachian mountains during the early 1700s; the Lowland Scots who came to America a little later and the Irish who began to arrive in the early 1800s. During this time people from Wales and England were also arriving in the United States.

The Highland Scots, Lowland Scots, Irish and Welsh are ethnically Celts (no matter what their religion happens to be)

[sssimsss]

Greetings from Campinas-Brazil!!!!!!

Hail Irish music and culture!!!

I wish here in brazil have a pub to listen to this beaultiful songs until sun rises!!!

I raise my mug of beer to you Irish people!!!!

[policemanmem]

Wow... great song;) and tough to sing! What about Eamon's low voice at 1:10?

[dipdip8]

Sherlock Holmes <3

[k3viNn95]

[stormdragon212]

[duleloncar]

Greetings from Novi Sad! :)

[grimreapersmith]

[theodopolous]

thank you Andreas and thank you You Tube..How else could you see a classic performance like this...MAGIC...

[KRRAZYO]

@ DUBLINERS When can you play the Gaelic League - Detroit????

Great vesion. One of the best. This is like a good classic country song,,,, Like Old Merle, George, or Hank Jr....

[micrat]

The Best ! - greetigs from Hamburg

[mijokijo]

I'm an American. I love the music and singing, but I can't understand a single thing that gentleman says. This demands subtitles (^_^)

[izunec]

Another greeting from Croatia ... great band and great performance.

[t1950t]

The Dubliners kick ass

Greetings from Croatia

[666maidenfan]

@ClaireJdeS I have listened to a lot of versions of this song and my favorite singer is definitely Luke kelly. Although the HK do it justice Luke Kelly's voice is definitely made for this song

[Moongoose86]

who cares if the hk is most clear listen to the luke version, its more about the music then whether non irish people can understand. i can understand this perfectly?

[ClaireJdeS]

It took me 5 times to hear it, and I know it by heart. The HK sing it best though. You can understand them more clearly.

[kwondoo]

@ClaireJdeS Try the luke kelly version, i like that one more then both the vids :)

[ClaireJdeS]

@kwondoo Alright, he's ok. But still the words are almost sluured together, the words aren't very clear. The HK you can understand every word they say.

[highkingofireland200]

@ClaireJdeS If you listen carefully, you'll hear how the words he sings are wrapped around the slip jig of the song. There's not many in Ireland left of Sean Cannon's calibre, and certainly no-one other than Cannon and perhaps Chris Kavanagh fit enough to even lace the late Kelly's boots but this is as good as it possibly gets. The High Kings are awesome, admittedly, but not one, not one, are as good as any of the Dubliners.

[ClaireJdeS]

@highkingofireland200 Alright, I respect your opinion and I'm glad that the Dubliners have such a devoted fan like you.

But me, in my own insignificant personal opinion think that the High Kings do it best. Then again, I'm a great admirer of the HK..........so that would be my opinion.

[Aracnah]

@highkingofireland200 "but not one, not one, are as good as any of the Dubliners" ...but Fiddler´s Green from germany are great as well... you should listen to them ;)

[kwondoo]

@ClaireJdeS Agreed :)

[ClaireJdeS]

@kwondoo Great! :D

[tony10396861]

@ClaireJdeS You can understand every word they say because they all sing with American accents!!

[dcox421]

like all the others |I will just say 19 people have no soul

[paddyatacliath]

Thank you kaandrey. They're reformin' in the Big

[kaandrey]

old men from dubliners NEVER get old for singing wonderful songs!

[tradmadlad]

19 english

[aldoValens]

This is a great song,

[GoAssassinsCreed195]

18 rap "musicians" disliked this. They're just envious of REAL music.

[REDTEXGAL]

My favorite Irish tune

[The88drunkredneak]

after hearing this 20 times I can finally sing to this song

[Stevens89265]

@The88drunkredneak It's taken me almost a year to learn the lyrics to this classic.

[YoshiThe1]

@The88drunkredneak I can't!

[Boleynish]

18 persons are pigs

[MrDuffmantom]

18 dont know that the rocky road is the only road

[Animalfriend777]

I didn't understand a word he said but that is still the coolest song I've ever heard!

[dcox421]

the greatest thing about Irish music is i have sat next to a 68 year old gentleman with my pint in the air singing the same song...figgin epic

[Fireheart528]

@dcox421 Bet it was in an Irish pub, eh? I need to learn how to speak with the same accent these guy use.

[LeonardoDalcomuni]

Eu adoro esses caras sensacional, um abraço aqui do Brasil!!!!!!!!!!!...........

[Craig311975]

[Craig311975]

my dear fellow,what a smashing song...what asmshing time!!

[mindgame314]

Alright we'll take the blacks. But we don't want the Irish!!

[tramidi]

Ireland Mighty Ireland.. I love this country

[ALTAIR2472]

John Mayer is cool, Bieber - shit

John is blues performer, he even played with Eric Clapton, so he can be in one team with Bieber

[Xerxes221]

John Mayer teamed up with Justin Bieber and disliked this video 17 times.

[0Gumpy0]

@Xerxes221 How dare you compare John Mayer with Bieber. John Mayer actually isn't that bad. 

[Xerxes221]

@0Gumpy0

Hmmmmm you have a point, maybe kanye west would have been a better comparison lol.

[ALTAIR2472]

@Xerxes221 >

[Xerxes221]

@ALTAIR2472

Shit dude, instead of John mayer I ment Bruno Mars

Lol, John Mayer is the shit

[Xerxes221]

@0Gumpy0

I meant to put down Bruno Mars... how the hell do you mix up a shitty artist with a guitar god lol

[Xerx555]

[PompeusMagnus]

No rainbow treasure for 16 people...

[Cavstic]

Fuck, no one sings The Rocky Road better than them, no one.

[Onogashi]

This is MUSIC and at least 16 people have no idea, that music is more than notes. Music is about feelin the shiver running down your spine like it does here. You start to dream and your thoughts learn to fly, it makes your feets want to run wild and you whole body wants to move :D

[ABRACAJUBRA]
