  • whiskey in the playback 2:25

  • metallica please we are talking of real musicians here not americas answer to led zeppelin without much ability !!!this is the dogs breath brilliant

  • Seeing footage of him makes me sad.

  • I don't remember the lip syncing back then, but I guess it must have been prevalent. Nonetheless it's a great song by an even greater band.

  • obviously lip-synching this back then

  • This his is what people want,..not the Metallica version.He just did that as a tribute to Phil,...since he was dead at 36.(For those not in the know,Phil is singing).

  • his bass if fucking see through!!!!

  • LETS DRINK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • metallica version is way better

  • @superboertje12 Foolish statement,get your hearing checked!Having seen Metallica 3 times,of all the metal /heavy rock bands ,they are easily the most UNMUSICAL,truly awful stuff!

  • @Liverofrobbo When did you see them?Nowadays they aren't that good anymore.Back in the 80's they were awesome.I suggest you look up on youtube their show on seattle in 1989.

  • @Liverofrobbo everybody his own opinion ha?

  • @Liverofrobbo thats a bit harsh man! metallica are awesome, i agree that some of their live performances are not great but i like their albums and would say that the big day out show they did was absolutely amazing! especially for whom the bell tolls performance! robert trujillo is awesome!

  • @Liverofrobbo u mad?

  • WTF is that in tfe start??

  • Sickest comercials ever! xD

  • Legendary version of this classic!

  • who said that Thin lizzy it's better then Metallica?? fuck.. i love metallica's versionééé

  • Comment removed

  • @CholoZz that would be most people :L

  • I don't see how this is better than metallica? Personally i don't think its good at all.

  • @79GbodyMalibuKid Dumbass!!!!

  • Thin lizzy's version is far better then Metallica's

  • Thank you Thin Lizzy for the song, but Metallica version is the best!!!

  • @jheimyasr

    u didnt like the thin lizzy u dont talk about that band metallica .by far thin lizzy is the BEST

  • @jheimyasr Luke Kellys is the best fella.

  • classic!!!!

  • back in the day they must have had kick arse mics... cause you cant build em like that anymore...you don't even need to be in the same room and it picks up your voice... Sarcasm aside I love this song and the era it all rocks .. Thin Lizzy Rocks Too

  • this is sick haha but i do prefer listening to metallica's version better

  • Its the only tru version ..remember that Kids !!

  • @morningbenders yeah, but much, much cooler

  • @morningbenders Don't you insult Phil Lynott by saying he looks like Obama. Obama loves wars, Phil Lynott loved music and hated wars. Don't compare the two, because Phil would not like that comparison.

  • @Forceofhabbit this is by far the silliest thing I have ever heard or read.

  • @Forceofhabbit Word!

  • Comment removed

  • @Forceofhabbit Obama loves wars?

  • @Forceofhabbit Okay.I dont know if Obama Likes wars.He just doesn't seem to have any balls to stand against the multitude of self-serving,short-sighted corporate and government douchebags.

  • @Forceofhabbit 0bama never had a real job either.

  • Phil - walking advert for skinny jeans. Metallica's version great also but can't beat it sang in a genuine Irish brogue. Pecker Dunne's is brilliant too.

  • METALLICA!<3

  • this is just the metalica minus a couple add-ons. Metallica took a great song and made it apeal to a greater audience. love BOTH versions, but the classic is my favorite :)

  • I love metallica version

  • I love metallica version

  • i prefer the metallica version

  • @xiLikeTurtlez

    You are a turd.

  • @johnmorisi8 now now dont hate

  • @johnmorisi8 Everyone has there own taste. NUFF SED

  • OMG U FCKIN SUCK!

  • wow, I tried to read his lips. He said sleep and f*ck, and then smiled. lip sinking is a joke. 

  • diggin that little tv ditty goin on there at the start....

  • jajajaja Play back!!!

    

  • god thats sad...

  • Kick Ass Solo :D

    

  • I kinda see a lot of Lip Syncing in that Afro Haired dude, but i believe that i´m wrong?

  • @jwkublick They aren't lip syncing, they played it live but put the audio over it later

  • Comment removed

  • Haha, Phil is so unhappy about having to "perform" on such a crummy show. The whole song he has the look on his face like he's fighting the urge to say "fuck this bullshit" and walk out.

  • 1thru99,com

  • Wtf is this i don't even...

  • PLAYBAAAACK!

  • @SanFaction hey, mr Sherlock.. :D

  • I prefer the Metallica version!!!!

  • @burplover619

    i think we all do! hahah

  • @DrDrumSkum - I think you're right. Phil's saying FU to the producers by strumming his bass like a 6 string. There's definitely some attitude going on there. They also cut the song down by like 3 minutes from the studio version. Phil's definitely trying to make a point to anyone watching.

  • Is this the Irish 'Top of the Pops' ?

  • wheres his moustache? great song

  • is he strumming the bass?

  • @watersrunning48 And they're all unplugged. That's how we did "live" performances in the 70's so that records could be sold. Everything had to sound exactly the same right down to the lip synch

  • where is the mustache?

  • 1:16 fucking long range mic or smthing?

  • @METALLICAFAN824 Hell ya!!!

  • @METALLICAFAN824 Out, now.

    They might had done it ... feels wrong to say but maybe, maybe equal to Thin Lizzys version if they did it in '85.

  • He is miming , but the reason it looks so bad is that the audio is not in sync with the video. This is due to the lousy codec used.

  • Terrible myming

  • this is playback

  • he's fucking miming

    

  • @corsistop he's miming fucking at 2:19

  • wow...how did he plays the bass guitar in that way?

  • @maximilian8036 Phil isn't playing here at all, the band is miming the song.

  • ...DISCO????

  • @Scampbell32 its the Tv Show's name lol

  • @Scampbell32 Its the 70's

  • coooool, so this is how Metaalica complimented the great Thin Lizzie, -fruk i miss u guys.

    :)

  • Comment removed

  • he is standing 1m away from the microphone and his voice is as clear, as if he stands 10cm on it.......

    i hate this damn TV fakes

    sry for my bad english

  • even the beatles song helter skelter was heavier than this

  • @thethirdeye9 The Beatles song Helter Skelter was fucking heavy anyway. Heavy doesn't = good either.

  • Wow did Metallica fix this!

  • @foolm2 indeed!

  • first off that is a spit cover. Back in the old days mics were fragile. Second everyone was forced to lip sink. It was how the censors could make sure you didn't slip in a f-bomb or a political statement. Pink Floyd, Jimi Hendrix and others all did it and hated it. But if you wanted pub. you had to do it. And as for metalica, they never added anything to any cover they did except distortion. I loved them until the black album but really this is the same song metallica with better vocal quality.

  • Or a kiwi

  • @2xRed Because the apple and the pear they tried before that distorted the sound too much.

  • Why is there a lemon on the mic?

  • you should change the title, this is not "live"

  • lmao at the people dancing in the background

  • Playback fodido.

  • Thank God for Metallica...

  • @conrep24 why are you watching this then??!

  • ooh, really liked the disco intro

  • eric bell is an incredibly lyrical player, out of the masses i have only heard one of him. i recommend "vagabonds of the western world" (the albumn) to everyone. love to phil

  • Sorry,but this version is the ONLY version.This song belongs to this band,and any that come after are wannabes. Phil ricks,forever.Ya know,,it really does look like he is saying*sleep and fuck in my Molly's chamber*!! LOL!

  • 2:19-2:21 Does Phil say, "Me I like to sleep and fuck." I know they probably had the audio played over the video back then, so when they are fuckin around during the song I bet he did say that, hahahaha. Way to go Phil!

  • @MrDrumSkum yeah he did.  :D

  • @MrDrumSkum he siad " me i relax and enjoy my fuck " .. i repeated it a million time

  • @3M00RI Negative.

  • @MrDrumSkum indeed he does :D

  • @MrDrumSkum he sure did

  • @MrDrumSkum He does say fuck, That's Awesome!!! these types of shows were always lip synched.

  • @MrDrumSkum you are 110% correct on that one XD

  • I like the metallica version of this song a lot better 2 be honest.

  • @SealedOpenDrummer i like metallica but der versions shit

  • @SealedOpenDrummer : This happened when Metallica members were building (nice) sand castles. ;)

  • @yannoche hahah thin lizzy FTW

  • phil loks so yung ter

  • Cool the way they ham it up.

  • Sick Hair!!!!

  • phil lynott no estaba acostumbrado al playback

  • como que me dieron ganas de tomar whiskey.... (:P)

  • Sigh,..my ever continuing love affair with Phil Lynott.Lol! Been crazy for this guy since this song came out all those years ago.Miss ya,Phil.Luv ya 4-ever too.

  • yo man!

    this is some cool shit!

    nice dude!

    keep it going!

  • Must have been a lip sync, he's not even singing into the mic. Great tune though.

  • playback...

  • Omg, phil's sooo young there !

  • Eric Bell was wonderful early on with Lizzy till he lost it and left during a show.His departure caused Phil Lynott to hire two guitar players.Lynott said he would never have his guitar player walk out on him again,the two lead guitars and Lynott on base plus Brian Downey went on to become one of the best live bands ever heard.R.I.P. Phil Lynott.

  • is the sound off..or were they lip synching on tv?

  • wow this is the youngest ive seen of phil on youtube

  • @ntrnate He still has his mad afro tho what a ledge :D

  • great thanxs
