The only problems I see with this cover are some of the pronuciations :L It just aint the same without the bit othe oul ''Irish brogue'' in it, and being Irish, I'd always notice that :L But epic voices, seriously a really great cover!!!!!
Gorgeous :) I really love how you've made it truly different, rather than making a bad impersination. My favourite Christmas song ever and you made it better. Wonderful!
@MajorMatthias Yes. Mainly because it is devoid of the sincerity and emotion of the original. There is no emotional depth in this cover, just like the majority of the covers of this song. The only half decent cover I've heard is Christy Moore's and thats just because he totally reinterpreted it.
Also the mispronunciation of the word 'Galway' in the chorus is cringeworthy, especially to someone like me who actually grew up in Galway.
@fr4nkfurt3333 Noooo hahahaa I love the origional as well as this. So I half agree, but the reason why it's such untouched awesomeness is because of his voice, and how it tells you the story of the song. This version is an entirely different mood, which is why it sounds so great with their voices.
@fr4nkfurt3333 I'm not saying I hate this or anything, I just think this is good in a different way than Kirsty's and The Pogues. Tbh, I think this is brilliant ;)
bloody awesome! looks like youre really enjoying it too :P and seeing you guys create that sound live with no overdubs is just mindblowing :) I FEEL SO CHRISTMASSY! :D
Wow! Love this, it's the first time I've actually heard all the words to this song. It's fab - it sends a tingle down my spine of Christmasses past. Thank you! :o)
Wow! Love this, it's the first time I've actually heard all the words to this song. It's fab - it sends a tingle down my spine of Christmasses past. Thank you! :o)
Oh oh oh!! The Pogues are one of my favourites and for you to cover them and you bring one of my favourites too is just pure bliss!!!! Thank you so so so much xxx
Funny coincidence. I've been a big fan of yours for a long time, and a week back, I subscribed to Kate's channel after watching her cover of Mumford & Sons' White Blank Page, and now you guys are making covers together. Beautiful work on both parts. Your voices complement each other perfectly. :) Oh, and thanks for introducing me to this beautiful song for christmas, never heard this before, but fell in love at first hear.

Orto this really is incredible. I subscribed to you literally years ago when you released the Time is Running Out cover. Just seen this pop up and wow. So glad I subscribed all those years ago :D
Right, well I'm from Galway and of course we pronounce it like that... but go to Tipp, Cork and most of the Ireland for that matter and it's Gallway... like how orto pronounces it. I'd forgive an exceptionally talented Mancunian for something so small!!
To leave a comment on this video without saying how AMAZING it's not just a crime, it's both shallow and pedantic!
Hey Orto :) Id love love love to a duet with you man. I live in the North of England. Check out my stuff and see if you reckon we'd be compatible. Im a lowly 4,000 subscriber guy but havent really had the chance to get much exposure yet. See what you reckon man, Gareth :)
not having a good day but putting this on over and over is really helping, i love all the advent covers so far, but this one really hits me centre and dead on, its just so beautiful and harmonic,..guess im just saying thank you.
Kate McGill and you are so talented! I love you both!
