because somebody is musical and can play guitar well why should his awful singin voice be overlooked? but hes so emotional and plays so well......have a day off!
not only an amazing lyricist but his raw untouchable voice is so TRUE... reminds me of early isaac brock.... fans of this check out early cd's by the band Modest Mouse or Ugly Casanova's first cd.... you'd probably enjoy it..... Not trying to spam honestly just help fellow music lovers :)
He has a new album coming out soon and just watched an acoustic version of his new single, Take me away for the night - toatlly brilliant. Can't wait to see him supporting Justin Currie in Edinburgh and then with The Procalimers in Stirling.

im scottish and i reallllyyyy dont liek his signign voice, mostly caus eof the accent. but i dont mind any other scottish singing voice. i really don't think hes any good. hip parade ftw?
Yeah I went there, cobble stones and that. I could find no coffee places! I'm sure there were places you could have coffee at the end of a meal, but no coffee places (like costa or starbucks, or non franchise places) I was in a raaage!
@xa13rx , tell me about it m8, the guy's brilliant live pure raw talent you cant take anything away from him he's quality!!!, maybe its coz he's scottish people dont get the accent?? , i'm scottish and i think this boy has some serious raw talent and a good raw vioce live!!!
I saw him on the orance act unsigned thing on a Sunday morning on T4 but i haven't heard anything since he won. Has he released any albums? I'm completely enthralled by his talent! Someone tell me where to buy a cd
saw this guy on saturday with me best mate supporting frightened rabbit at a lil place called the forum, and when he performed this he was amazing! such a humble and genuine dude aswell when i chatted to him afterwards. worthy of greatness
Live and Unsigned auditions start in January 2010! It's the biggest music competition for original and unsigned acts in the UK - for more info and to register for an audition go to the website!!!!!!!!!
thats good news i always thought that orange unsigned was pretty pointless coz of the poor quality of the bands but tommy reillys a legend the first time he did give me a call i almost cried it was a beautiful mid-morning comedown moment.
have u heard his recorded stuff, its just bad. they've added loads of poo in the background and he doesnt have his edge. But live i love the music, he was great on orange unsigned act.
according to his website the album is released 21st September and he is doing loads of gigs to support it. Excellent live - I saw him last night in Edinburgh and it was ace.
i havent heard him live before but listening to his performances on orange unsigned act it seems like hes better live then he is recored in a studio... but that doesnt mean he sounds bad recorded. far from it! :D
i love tommy he is so original you will probably never find someone that sounds the same as him and i love that he hasnt let the fame go to his head like most singers do.
i agree with the people that are against mileyfan 7788 tommy reilly is not the worst singer
love him. New album is on pre order but in my opinion very disappointing hes scraped the acoustic edge of the guitar on most songs and the producers have tried to main stream him. It didnt work for me and I think he should just try and keep acoustic. I love him here but cant say the same from what Ive heard of the album. Check it out for yourself on itunes.
mileyfan7788 I see you claim that Tommy Reilly is "The worst singer ever" Well judging by the fact your name is mileyfan you don't appear to have a very good taste in music as Miley cyrus is rubbish compared to Tommy
for goodness sakes, hes an average guy singing an awesome wee song that he wrote, enjoying doing it, and providing enjoyment for other people, lighten up!
All the bastards nay saying this lad have to look past the vocal talents of Tommy, which i actually think are fine as they make his unique sound well... so unique, fuds.
Anyway, back to what i was saying, you have to look past his so called lack of vocal talent and listen to the words, listen to the way he uses his guitar, piano and harmonica. Bob Dylan had a voice that made people turn in their graves but when they heard what he was saying.. well the rest is history.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
You are so right, imagine if Bob Dylan himself had been able to write such profound and moving songs about not liking coffee with such terrible pacing and that unintelligible scottish twang
If u guys knew anything about Dylan, u will know he wrote a song called `One More Cup of Coffee`. So stop moaning about Tommy writing about it and stop comparing him to Dylan!
so agree man... aquired taste just like the legend... neither can really hold a note but their voices are just so likeable cause they put so much heart in thier music
Except for the fact that Dylan gets accolades for writing some of the most important protest songs ever made such as "The times they are a'changin'" and "blowin' in the wind" and Tommy Reilly writes about...coffee. Maybe that says more about his generation's political stance (apathy) than his writing ability though.
Except Dylan wrote those songs when he was in his 20's, tommy is still a teenager, and to say that the song is about coffee is quite ignorant, like a rolling stone isnt about stones is it? dont get me wrong Dylan is one of the greats, but apathy?
Can't say age is really a factor. Jackson Browne wrote some of the greatest acoustic songs ever when he was 15/16 years old. I was using hyperbole to make my point, so the ignorance point is moot. Yes, apathy! We're in the middle of one of the most controversial and volatile political period ever and how many great protest songs are being written? Not many as most young song writers focus on the personal rather than the social or political.
And so my point is that, a huge part of what made Dylan great (and considered one of the best) is his musics reflection and impact on his generation (Something I don't think Tommy Reilly will ever do)
I suppose i see where you are coming from, i personally wouldnt have likened him to dylan, but he is something different, and he is very good at what he does, and he is humble which is very refreshing
I do like the fact that artists from Scotland are being accepted when they sing in our own accents...1st the Proclaimers many moons ago...recently the view, Tommy Reilly and my personal favourite, Frightened Rabbit. Good to hear something different from the standard accentless drones. I like the energy Tommy puts in.
For gods sakes, If he wrote songs about political strive you'd compare him to dylan, hes damned if he did and damned if he didn't in your books.
