thank fuck i just listened to their albums without watchin the videos or i would have been put well off. what a wanky era the late 70's and early 80's were
@jmoney31705 I can always help out anyone that likes Thin Lizzy like i do...If you have firfox or chrome Install Adblock Plus....That will get rid of those fucking commercials 4-ever..Works Killer!!!
I just saw Lizzy as the opening act for Black label Society and Judas Priest in Toronto 22 Nov 2011. This is the first time I've seen Lizzy since 1983 in Kaiserslautern Germany at Monsters of Rock, in what I believe was the second last performance of Thin Lizzy before splitting. I had low expectations for the show in Toronto but I was more than pleasantly blown away and feel they played and sounded waaaay better than BLS or JP. Sadly the crowds here in North America just don't KNOW Lizzy.
@jayob1231 Irish band? This line-up was 25% American & 25% English. Even Phil was born in England to a Brazilian father. Hardly an Irish band. It was a collaboration of Irish, American English & Scots.
"I'm looking for somebody, but I don't even know her name!" - always makes me grin or laugh lol, pure desparation lol - whole song is just funny and fun to listen to.
Fair enough, but even if you would attack some kid for saying something, theres no need to say about it on youtube, thats either wanting attention, or trying to sound hard xD
no i havent actually, i happen to get on with pretty much everyone i meet, execption of some people :D
@TheTimmyH Hey I like 30 second to mars :L but faced with which album to save in a fire Id choose my Thin Lizzy collection and leave 30 seconds to mars to burn baby burn :L
boss tune really kick ass rock this tune one of Thin Lizzys best tunes I think. R.I.P Philip Paris Lynott and R.I.P Gary Moor you both did well goodnight and godbless you both.
@ThinLizzyFanpage I don't know where you're from but I live in the UK. Teenagers over here say "that's so sick" by which they mean "that's really awesome". I thought "that's so weak" might be a spin-off.
Also, how could anyone in their right mind call this song "weak"? As I'm sure you'll agree (since you put the video up) this song is bangin!
Check out the Gary Moore Hot Gossip video.Aren't women lovely and somehow Heavy Metal just makes them even better or is it the other way round and Ireland beat Italy in the rugby.Laterz.
@whitbyjet65 ugh...I'm aware of that. His mother is Irish and his father was an African American. Phil was born in Birmingham and was sent to live with his grandmother in Crumlin, Ireland. I know the story.
owing to the lyrics and the fact that the yorkshire ripper was at large at that time, thin lizzy were never allowed to perform this on top of the pops. don't think it got a lot of radio airplay either. didn't stop record sales tho.
Phil had it all, one of the best songwriters ever, effortlessly cool, great stage presence, but my oh my he sure did walk the line between cool/ corny with some of these videos. Sometimes they were tonue in cheek i reckon but other times i think he just called it wrong
not wanting to be contraversial but what is stupid or insensitive about the lyrics,phil says in the song,i,m not trying to be nasty,i,m not trying to make you scared,it is phil warning women to be vigilant,not just at that time but at anytime,because he says there,s a killer on the loose again
@theneil100 Check the LYRICS and listen for the light-hearted laugh. Phil Lynott adored women and was not insensitive, to the converse contrary! 'Killer On The Loose': "A killer on the loose There's a killer on the loose again That's right Jack A ladykiller on the loose There's a killer on the loose again Standing in the shadows, shadows of LOVE A killer on the loose again, of love There's a killer on the loose again Oooh Play that back Check it back. "
I think I just found new jack off material.
