  • Uwielbiam tych staruszków, mimo ich wieku są zawsze młodzi duchem a ich piosenki, wszystkie bez wyjątku są wprost fenomenalne. Sam śpiewam szanty oczywiście amatorsko i przy piwku i wiem jak podnoszą na duchu. Wszystkie inne utwory przemijają i zdarza się że nie można już ich słuchać a te zawsze będą na topie. Pozdrawiam wszystkich miłośników The Dubliners -

  • I'm polish and all me life i've been "attacked" with all modern techno crap. Well I resisted. Folk songs (of any nation) r the best thing, just because it's real and true.... And Barney is great (not greated :P) and cool as always :)

  • Brillant love the Dubs, please drop in and have a listen to my Makem Folk songs

  • if you really listen careful and respectful, the way it is sung, you can listen in between the lines, that it seems, that Barney exactly knows, where this place will be. And in his dreams, I'm sure, he has been there! That is the way, he is singing about! May your god bless you, Barney! You earned the highest level of respect, I can give... God bless you, an god bless the Irish! THX to Neil and Gary, for opening my eyes!

  • Barney is the best 4ever

  • They don't make them like them lads anymore, sad to see old Dubliners dying away!

    Character in spades, nothing today but trendy little techies, in panzy little suits! Were loosing our culture!

  • see you all on fidlers green my frinds and barny.....

  • you never heared them live? you've missed a great part of real life!

  • had a great drunken sing song this time last week in Eindhoven outside O'Sheas.. This was my party peace!! Barney is the only man for this song though!! Been listening to these boys my whole life(only 23).. Young people need to realise what good music is and stop listening to electronically enhanced crap!!

  • im 19 and from england and generaly like my metal music.... so to all you people who love ireland/irish music.... I DO TOO :D!!!!

  • Its a major pity the Dublin public for the most part couldnt be bothered to continue our pub song culture....too busy now talking rubbish about reality tv and playing with their mobile phones etc to have a good old fashioned drunken sing song at the end of a night !!

  • @DublinDave1978 god bless your trueth boy !!!!!!!im from newfoundland and i spoke these same word for meny a year!!!!these day they have no culture like they used to !! like the days of the ol'kitchen partys

  • @after9pm2

    As a kid, I used to go to parties thrown by my moms family members and there was many evenings where someone would request an old tune, and the band would play them along with the modern genres. I learned to polka, waltz, and just love the folk songs, now you just don't find that anymore

  • wonderful performance!

  • used to go to see them in the "Stadium" a lot of years ago and still have not got of listening to them.

  • God bless u Barney see u on fiddlers green mate cheers

    Don´t forget Ciarán!!

  • Song reminds me of my Grandpa. Herring, and Salmon Fishermen 30 years, Tug boat captain for 20. Died before he retired, and thats how we wanted it. Spent everyday he was on shore at our local pub, really miss him. I still go down to Granville island docks and get head nods from all the old schoolers. I took the path of a soldier instead of following the family tradition of working the ocean, hopefully I get to see fiddlers green.
