[showaddy11]

the only people who dont know christy and the celtic nation are aliens christy moore prays while he breathes. needs no acolades. a darlin man

[TheBartelt]

@santino2k6.... you are joking right? either that or you are dead from the waist up.

[santino2k6]

@TheBartelt As a matter of fact, I'm not joking at all. I think the instrumental music is amazing but the "see you" part of the lyrics just sounds like he's talking to someone with no fuckin emotion.

[santino2k6]

Ride on....see you?....my god those r the worst fuckin lyrics ever.

[gk88knox]

@santino2k6 ride on ....see you as in see you later or good bye or slain go fhail.

Im from Sweden and im really shocked that I have missed Christy! This is absolute class!

[LUFCLorcan]

Christy Moore is to Ireland what Lee Evans is to England

[EliteNZPlayerZ]

@LUFCLorcan LOL ye sweaty fuck

[DamageInc92]

@LUFCLorcan Lee Evans is representative of the annoying english accent, and is as such, very fucking annoying.

[ihatemuckdjs]

Sweaty cunt

[markydo86]

[ihatemuckdjs]

What is the Irish for Pranny?

[PinguTuan]

i had the honour of singing this with christy before :) one of the best moments of my life

[gailheraty1]

@PinguTuan Wow! you amazingly lucky person! I met him for a few mins outside the philharmonic last year and got a photo taken with him and I still can't quite believe it. Where did you sing with him?

[PinguTuan]

@gailheraty1 at a songwriting workshop in dublin back in like march :) he was such an encouraging man, we all joined in on this one but i also had the privilege of singing missing you just with christy on guitar and backing vocals

[MrMoviemaverick]

[norton36456]

the horse is freedom

the freedom is the horse

[upthedub1]

this song was originally writing by an Irish traveller. Cristy paid the traveller £40 for the song. if you didn't no that, well then you don't no shit about Irish music.

[cavejim]

@upthedub1 it was written by Jimmy MacCarthy a horse enthusiast, if you don't believe me read his book called 'Ride On'. STFU you idiot

[karmapeach]

I love this song,i play it in D-minor,and i hope it works,what a great ambassador for MY LOVELY WEE country.

[ROCKYBAY123]

[KeithPatterson32]

@DamageInc92 i was in Hanoi in vietnam 2 years ago and i met this vietnamese guy who was a huge christy moore fan. he played christys songs on his guitar and it was so funny to watch it.

[xdotsx1]

[w6595]

ich liebe den irischenmann.,

[Nilephan666]

This is such a good song, check out the Celtic/folk metal band Cruachan's cover of it, spectacular.

[Seoig92]

absolutely love this heart felt performance

[WaxdollyPodcasts]

@seandebath - that's an ill-considered comment. It's insulting to both the disabled and also to the Irish People.

The (fourth) Home Rule bill of 1920 didn't give Ireland to the Irish. It was a compromise.

Still six counties of Ireland are under English "rule".

The Irish got on without the English, regardless of your views on the "Tiger Economy" - under the Tories (Toraighs - Irish derogatory term) Looks like England might go the same way as Spain, Greece, etc...

[slfnobodyshero]

@seandebath WE NEED NONE OF THE BUTCHERS CROWN......AND OUR INDEPENDANCE WAS NOT GIVIN TO US YE FUCKIN PRICK WE FOUGHT FOR IT ..........SO GO FUCK YOURSELF ..YE ENGLISH, PEOPLE SUPPRESSIN, RAPING, MURDERING BUNCH OF SCUMBAGS.........AH ARENT YES SO PROUD HOW YES FUCKED UP THE WORLD.....

[discobizkit38]

@slfnobodyshero fuck off shit for brains!!you know fuck all u retard

[geisterbahn1]

@slfnobodyshero Actually Im English and its not the people of england that does all the crap its the hidden government and its drones .I worked in London for 10 years with the irish and had no problem with them or they with me.In fact ,ive been shadowed by the uk government for a time beacause i used to drink in the archway tavern with the irish and live in the same houseetc.its not the people its the government.They give us a hard time to ,make no mistake about it.bunch of twats id say

[ihatemuckdjs]

@geisterbahn1 Was there a reason for this novel of a comment?

[mstji1977]

@geisterbahn1

im not irish but i live in ireland and im in love with the country and irish people!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

[devenney1967]

@geisterbahn1 you may laugh but the 'hidden government' is infact illuminati

[MrIpomoea]

@devenney1967 wrong song, sparky... take that somewheres else.

[markydo86]

crusty IRA and HAMAS supporting scumbag. I was a big fan til he stuck his big fat sweaty newbridge head into middle east politics. he can't do a thing without his boyfriend declan synott with him night and day now either.

[Dufflad101]

@atrueirishman well obviously he understands middle east politcs better than you dickhead, I'm from Newbridge too btw, we must have good schools, did you ever get through school?

[kenzee5525]

@atrueirishman what the f*ck would ya know about it. in all fairness

[11gokey]

@atrueirishman If it weren't for people like Christy Moore, dipshits like you ( or I )

wouldn't be able to write our opinions about anything. There would be no freedom. So you should shut your fucking mouth,open your ears, and just listen to the music.

[davybcfc09]

[jacobkotze]

this is what the irish are all about.....

[Vigor3888]

amazing...

[SFunction]

Christy and Jimmy were friends, some songs were made together and shared. It is beter to listen and keep prejudices than try to spread a message you do not even know the origin of.

[royser1]

prefer the version with the haunting slide guitar in it.

[Aoiife2kaii9xx]

that song was wrote about my sister haa :L

[Chrisokraus]

i have it on an video live gig .. vhs.... but at this time no f+++++ player:-) that´s live

[pinky8473]

[JackMan2540]

pure hero

[sarahkin01]

hes a fucken legend x

[DavelovesRealMusic]

Ive never heard of this artist till 2 minutes ago..thanks to a Cover version...too bad really good music is no longer played on popular radio or TV ..its all POP TART crap and HIP HOP.

[rabbitwho]

@DavelovesRealMusic Funny thing is that this is a cover too :D Check out more Jimmy McCarthy songs, he's an amazing song writer. Christy is great too.

Music is great, pop and hip hop too, there aren't enough hours in a day for all of it.

[DavelovesRealMusic]

@rabbitwho Wll thanks for the info. I WILL check out Jimmy McCarthy ,,,,,it is hard to find this kind of music in the maninstream now....roots, folk rock and similiar music is not considered marketable in the USA..you have to SEEK it...I SEEK.

[DavelovesRealMusic]

@rabbitwho I dsiagree on the Pop music being great...too disposble and dumb for me..I cant take it....nevefr could. I mean "Aqau- Barbie Girl....kesha-"Blah Blah Blah" YUCK LOL Bad songs are silly bad songs..you need a SOUL to write RIDE ON, not a deal with the Devil.

[rabbitwho]

@DavelovesRealMusic hee hee, you shouldn't care what music other people like. There's no right or wrong or good or bad or superior and inferior music, everybody listens to what speaks to them in some way.

Don't expect everyone on earth to agree with you, there is no deal with the devil in listening to and creating the music that you like yourself.

[throbasonic1982]

Just a spine tingling song

[nudeadnation]

probely the most famous person to come from newbridge

[FreddyWoWimcool]

so fucking epic

[mroubison]

Ahh just an Irishman and his guitar... :)

[ShaneM321]

see dat face , dats d face of passion

[darkklaxxon1]

Stage lights, Heat. You don't have to be a physics major to make the connection do you.

[SupaDeeXXX]

i luv this song. i was introduced to his music  very young nd i still luv listenin to him

[aidymorgan]

[irishforever040708]

[Leahbarlow18]

I like Ryan Kelly's Version way better :-S

[purplettuce620]

sweating aload

[katsandroses]

It took years before I could listen to this without the tears quietly streaming. ((( christy )))

[piedpiperpianos]

He really held that audience - total attention. He's made this song his own; but didn't Jimmy McCarthy write it?

[respinK]

He truly owns this one.

But some people say metallica owns whisk-e-y in the jar. :P

and they bet their balls on it. Well, I wouldn't.

[piedpiperpianos]

I guess you are right - it's his song whoever wrote it - and this is a great video of him doing it - seeing it as well as hearing it makes me realise how detached we can become from music. Ride On

[DaveTheFuckingBrave]

fools:D

Jimmy Maccarthy did write it

And christy sings it wrong

It should be "Run the claw&qu
