[Kekik79]

I love this song, and by far, this song protrudes Irish gaelic folk music more than the other shite you can find around youtube.

[Ganjus]

Most certainly the best I've ever heard. Three cheers for pub music!

[jrageth625]

I wish I could get the audio file for this. This is my favorite interpretation of the song.

[DamonBoykiw]

yeah, this version of this song is one of the most important things to me in my life ever. i cannot possibly express in words what this does for me

[CeeJayfortysix]

Great ! Best version of Finnegans Wake in my opinion. And that from a pub in Ballyshannon. See a young Danny Guinan (guitar). Don't know the others ? Does anybody has their names ?

Classic drinking song: everyone in the pub knows it, joins in on the chorus.

Inane tale of a lush who is killed in a freak

accident, and revives miraculously at his own wake when he is accidentally spattered by a broken bottle of whisky.
