Dropkick Murphys - The Rocky Road to Dublin

[traviskearney]

I like Dropkick Murphy's but they really butcher some traditional songs.

[rphinks]

@traviskearney its not butchering the song its doing it his own way. he kept up the pace give some credit.

[traviskearney]

@rphinks No credit deserved in my opinion. I've heard about 15 versions of this song and this is by far my least favorite.

[niverent]

Man would rather will the void than be void of will.

[TheTerminator454]

Sorry I mean justin beiber

[TheTerminator454]

@stevie6966 st patties day is st patricks day I'm not Irish and I know that, and also stop being an asshole if u don't like a band then don't look them up and don't watch the video I fuck in hate jut in beiber but i don't troll his videos so just stop...

[alteye1]

They do justice to the dubliners. This made me cry.

[KazamaSharingan]

I'm sorry to interrupt this highly intellectual conversation, but does anyone know from where does the original song come from? Because I've heard this version, Orthodox Celts version, The Pogues version and The Dubliners version, and just wondering from where does this song originates... ˘-˘

[officialPaze]

It's a 19th century Irish song. It's one of the very few songs regarded as traditional Irish but not political... which makes it suitable for public concerts!

[stevieb6966]

@officialPaze YOUR TALKIN THRU YOUR ARSE YANK BOY

[mackshayster]

@stevieb6966 physically impossible unless youre from mexico. lazy assholes cant hold a job

[l0lidude]

@KazamaSharingan Google it, it's on the wikipedia page

[KazamaSharingan]

[fightingphish72]

Luke Kelly Thats all I have to say

[Rhaven85]

I like The Young Dubliners version of this song the most but Dropkick Murphys do it well too.

[BostonVideoPromo]

[lukeyboy67]

Pogue version the best

[motoxman970]

[twkm05]

Ya ruined the song ya pack of wankers.

[Anonimus1111011]

@twkm05: Right. I agree. When a pack of nitwits perform something, it cannot be good.

[murphycline]

Seen them a few times; excellent, excellent show.

[Apeworth]

They are absolute shite.Complete rubbish.

[coumarin]

if you think they suck and all that why do you even take the time 2 look it up and watch it

[CatabolicAvatar]

apeworth shut the fuck up you retarded primate! i was at this show and 3 other st patties day shows plus another 2 that werent on st patties and i can tell you this band RULES! go fling your dung elsewhere after you kiss me arse!!!

[stevieb6966]

@CatabolicAvatar what the fuck is "st patties day"?? and there shit! sellin "paddy-whackery" to stupid yanks

[o0stairwaytoheaven0o]

WHOOP I LOVE THIS SONG! saw them live last nite in austin, they didnt play rocky road to dublin though :( but it was KICK ASS, almost got killed a bunch of times in there cuz i was like 3rd row from the stage, BUT SO WORTH THE BRUISES!

[0xXNirvanaXx0]

1 2 3 4 5!!! TIME TO KICK SOME ASS!

[askmrlizard]

I'm a piper too and I love this band.

[apelfed]

Until you've seen them live... been in the pit and survived - none of you fucks can comment on them being shit orite? Deal. You haven't lived till you've wiped the sweat of the fat guy behind you from your brow all to the sound of the bagpipes at a dropkick show.

[JimboFStick]

Lots of jackasses commenting on this one, huh? This band is good at what they do. Don't like what they do? Awesome. No one gives a shit. Also, covering traditional songs in modern ways sets them above other bands in the genre. They have some awareness of musical history and the intelligence to see what that's worth. Many bands don't. So in conclusion, learn to loosen up, or just go fuck yourselves, huh?

[zodd999]

Agreed...but let'em talk shit mate, they must like rap and hip-hop, what can they know about music??

[Mike62589]

i dont like rap or hip hop. i like real irish music, unlike this crap. i wish they would stop ruining irish songs with their terrible covers

[89jonster]

zodd999 & jimbofstick are right...and people if you dont like this band.. dont watch their videos... nobody gives a shit if you dont like em'.. keep it to yourself an go watch your rap a hiphop videos you fucking wiggers

[Mike62589]

wow the dropkick murphys are horrible

[GodLovesCigars]

love the folk version, and love this cover. kick ass

[smokingclearsmylungs]

stupid and boring music for morons.

[majorswede]

every song this bunch of wankers murder is an embarresment to music in general. i manage more skilled and creative musical offerings every time i lift a cheek and fart

[therealkingfuse]

[HaulAwayJoe]

[koolkinger]

[HaulAwayJoe]

[francishughes81]

[windehond]

I agree

[francishughes81]

thanks for agreeing with me, windehond.

you have good sense about ye.

[paytizzle]

I love this band, but I prefer the Young Dubliner's version of this song.

[praskovia13]

wtf?

[mikey1646]

listen to how this song is supposed to be sang... these fuckers just scream it... listen to ' the dubliners' or 'luke kelly'. this version is pure shite. enough said. obviously anyone who would listen to this tripe hasn't a clue.

[B2KIrishk9]

Bulshit

[PreteenDeathfuck]

Dropkick murphys fucking rules!!

[mikey1646]

ruined a great song. twats

[Domitianvs]

Indeed they did. If you want to cover this song in a heavy version, then Cruachan did it best.

[uiscegorm]

What a racket!!!!

[derekrulzh34]

fuck everyone who isnt irish

[rustyshackleford69]

fuck, the dropkicks ruin every good fuckin irish song

[jakesteel56]

[HaulAwayJoe]
