Ronnie introduces this as a song from Galway yet 16+ years when I told a friend from Tuam that I'd been diagnosed as suffering (underlined) from DEPRESSION the unbelievalble response was " Oh, tha's just feeling sorry for yourself" !! What a remarkable medical insight! I wish I'd heard this song then! I've long since packed in Prozac etc in and found that songs like this ( and my wee Jack Russell, 'Mollie' ) have done me much more good ..been far better So, many thanks Ronnie/Dubliners !
Im 44 years old,irish and proud,been through a lot of crap in my life.Recently had major s**t,this song helped me through it,think what you want,but sometimes songs like this make you think about life and how lucky some of us are,god bless and peace to all
the right song for my beloved Cardinals! Let´s go, Redbirds! Tonight, we make this very special season ending the way it´s supposed to end: With St. Louis celebrating.
Music is one way to express frustration,and is a nonviolent strategy to carry on the fight.MUSIC WITH A MESSAGE HAS THE POWER TO MOBILIZE !.Take care ADonovan43
For those of you who would like to know who the Dubliners are, here are their names as they appear in this video:
Barney McKenna (seated,playing banjo), John Sheehan (fiddle), Jim McCann (guitar), Sean Cannon (guitar), Ronnie Drew (singing the song), Paddy Reilly (guitar), Eamon Campbell (guitar, mop of white hair!)
ah boys you sent me away!...your pure quality, sitting in london rite now and heading home to ireland soon....and when i get back im getting to the dongeal shores, camping with the lads, few boozers and listening to yourselves....keep it up bai's!....much love...slan
@98nh3609 Oh boohoo, I've been diagnosed with depression by several doctors and psychiatrists. It's not to it but your attitude, so as you might imagine, I can appreciate how you feel, but there's like I said, not to it but your attitude, so fight the good fight, and don't give up 'til it's over ;D
This is huge. And true to life as well as work in this age of blame and excuse. Your deeds are your own and life is unfair. Don't judge a man by the luck he encounters, but by his perseverance in dealing with the misfortune fate deals him. WIshing will change nothing but dealing with your problems head on will make you a better person.
This song says it all about Ireland and her people....Don't give up til it's over....someday we will be free of the Union Jack and their foriegn monarchs and thats when there will be one Hell of a party heard from Labrador to Austria!
BE PROUD AND GLAD, WE WERE BLESSED WITH THE DUBS AND EVERYONE ELSE WHO GAVE US AND THE WORLD IRISH MUSIC, THE LEGENDS YOU ARE WILL LIVE LONG IN OUR HEARTS, NEVER SHALL YOUR MUSIC BE SILENCED GRATEFUL AM I AND ALL THOSE WHO LISTEN YOU WERE PURE CLASS RIGHT TO THE END, R.I.P TO ALL THE FALLEN HERO'S OF IRISH MUSIC, LUKE AND RONNIE, AND MANY MANY MORE....
I love +++ l'Irelande, un petit pays avec une immense culture en particulier sa sublime musique. J'admire tous les artistes formant le groupe Les Dubliners mais Mr Ronnie Drew a une place bien particulière dans mon coeur : sa voix, sa personnalité. Sublime artiste que la maladie a conduit malheureusement vers d'autres cieux. Il me manque terriblement (j'ai lu son livre) et il doit bien évidemment manquer à sa famille et à tous les Irlandais et à tous ceux qui l'ont tant aimé. Mr Ronnie Drew RIP.
Out of all the work songs I have ever heard, this one seems to be one of the only ones that manages to awake something in me. Whenever I hear this, I get a deep sense of determination renewed within me, true values spoken by men who have experienced the world already. I only wish that people would start listening to this instead of Kanye West or Justin Beeber.
@dropkickeddubliners Perhaps Justin Beeber had a failed life previously and his spirit told him not to give up till it was over - hence his terrible songs. Can't blame the kid for trying. He luck is bound to turn. roflcopter
@dropkickeddubliners wish all you may. i cant watch TV without some form of glorification of rap or pop music, at least in america. the mainstreaming of rap stars who are avowed criminals, and the reality crap on tv etc is one of many clear indications of americas fall.
@Drunkcox707 i strongly disagree with you.america has too many enemies, direct ones and those within who are nothing more than dregs.america started to fall about 15 years ago, now its at the point where it cant catch its balance.
Ser at du er dansk:-) så behøvede jeg jo ikke forsøge mig på engelsk!! jeg elsker den sang også med Tørfisk, under alle omstændigheder, den sang har et budskab til os. Lev dit liv mens du har det
...i shall never give up listening to the dubliners, ronnie drew and luke kelly...they have made this world a better place to live in and shall always love ireland and these guys...
like mrsinn said its positive and should inspire folk to dig their heels into life-work-and their own personal causes RIP ronnie youll never be forgotten brother
But I cant help but notice the array of different amounts of hair and different beard shapes etc that have never before been seen since the seven dwarves :P
Lest a young one who has prevailed through great trials can relate to the lyrics, this is a song for a Jack of all Trades and/or an older person. Well done lads. I shed tears every time this is played. Kleenex should sponsor this song.
Johnny please please please could you add "It could happen to you" on youtube. I just fail to understand why you have not added this gem of a song already. Regards, A fellow Limerick man
10,000 IMMIGRANTS WORK IN IRELAND USING FALSE STUDENT VISAS
Bogus non-EU immigrants sign on as students then slip away to take up jobs. Others overstay their visas to allow them secure work by enrolling in fake courses every year to allow them continued access to Irish jobs.
Irish Independent 12/2/10
(If they are here long enough they can stay for good)
This does not include immigrants here on real student visas or on legal work permits or here working illegally. How many 10s of 1000s is that?
Do your propaganda elsewhere we want to listen to this song. You are ruining my dream of a cool glass of guinness and an evening listening to them in a smokey pub.

SHUT UP you might be right with what you say and i did not say anything against it. Just understand that this should not be the place for this one problem. Enjoy the music write how much you like the Dubliners or leave and write your stuff elsewhere!
And so say all of us! This isn't the place for your bigoted rant, Waaeaa. Give it a miss and listen to my song sung by one of the least bigoted men I've met.
I am german. What do i care about your political problems. We got some ourselfs and so do many other nations. Write your stuff somewhere where people will listen to you because they care. Ireland might be a great country and im gonna visit it one day and saving it from bad influence is sure as hell something right to do but as i said...post your announcment somewhere where people might move something and react.
Show the bigotry - And if words of truth upset you so much, then perhaps written comments disrupt sound that enters your ears
far too easily
OR you are not as interested in the song as you think....
And whats with the name dropping - as if i give a shit who you met or knew, I don't care if you met Jesus christ...Name-dropping simply says that the person whop does it has an inadequacy and places great stock in famous ppl - bcoz they want a piece if that fame themselves
I pride myself on being one of the few who will not.
This, and everywhere that Ireland resides, IS the place for facts concerning the destruction of this country, culture, heritage and the ppl who conceived it
the Irish - a european ppl, nothing else
when we change then our culture will change too, you will remember this after it is too late, and there were those who tried to stop it
I will write whatever i like. There are no rules as to what you can or cannot write.
I am Irish, I have every right to post comments relating to Ireland, more that you...you are GERMAN - I was born, bred and live here, you were not. So YOU shut up.
And perhaps you should learn some manners, do you tell people to SHUT UP wherever you go?
No but i think in your case its really something that needs to be done. You spammed the whole fuckin commentlist now. And of course you are aloud to write what ever you like (actually you are not) but perhaps the word german made you even angrier. So ill be quite now and hope you be quite now too because as it seems you still dont get the point here. Those comments just ruin the mood of people trying to have some unbiased fun here with the song.Guys like you talk about imigrants on a funeral too
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
you are an imbecile, and no doubt facts from a paper got you all angry and frustrated bcoz you are some leftie pro immgration nut, who loves to shout racist and nazi....its the new facism, especially in emasculated Germany.
Does it make you feel better to shout racism and feel all righteous
Must make you very angry when facts that go against your religion are posted. like mine
LoL what tells you i am left? because i am not...not at all. I just cant stand people like you who are the ones full of bile offering a whole canal to this one problem and talking to people about nothing else. Ive got enough of you ignorant fanatic...guy. Im the one who will shut up no to be finally able to listen to the music again as you said 8) Focusing is sometimes really hard with all the bullshit in the world and on web.
One last comment here: AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. I am moreof a conservative then most 50 year olds. And i think you still dont get what i said. I dont ignore anything here all i say is that this isnt the right place to write it (i can write stuff where ever i want bla bla) but if you are really interested in making something happen why do you comment here and not somewhere where it helps? Thats all i ment and said no ignoring facts or nothing
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Are you sure its one last comment...you said that 3 comments ago......yet another leftist characteristic. Yup you are a leftist, (saying you are a conservative - did I mention they outright lie too)
I post my comments everywhere, (yet you assumed otherwise - another leftist trait)
I am Irish, you are German, these facts are FACTS, nothing else, if you cannot handle facts, then you have a problem with truth, but that is how Germany is now - oppressed and broken
I am Irish, I ahve more right to speak about Ireland than a German.
You need to examine what you are saying, why do you find facts such a problem....if they are facts, then what is the problem?
What has your state done over the last 60 yrs to make your head bowed and afraid to not acknowledge facts....c,mon German, your ppl always used to be a great people for facts.
Ask yourself, why can I not simply deal with a fact, but call a person who says a fact - a bigot
miss you RonnIe........I will look at the plastic flowers mate....... it will make me a plastic ....man.......No one cares......its a plastic life man.......Dublin`s as good as yer man...... Mx\
they may grew older every year... and badly enaugh sometimes one dies... but everyone dies, when his time comes. but the spirit of the dubliners... it will never die.
and being part of something like that, it also makes the single people immortal in a way.
Well done, Ronnie & the Dubs. One hundred thousand hits and rising. I remember Ronnie telling me that he loved the final verse best - the one about the ghost moon being followed by the rising sun. You're still rising, Ronnie.
I think it this song is amazing and think of dad when i hear it. He doesn't like the song but i think thats because he doesn't like the direct nature of the song.
Its like the composer is saying-
Ya you have problems, but you need to see past what has been done and meet the future head on. It may or may not get easier but keep struggling. It'll be worth it
Ronnie Drew and my grandfather had an uncanny resemblance to each other. I think the words to this song speak to the courage and strength that I remember Papa always had. And, of course, so did Ronnie Drew. Thank you for posting. It's a beautiful piece.
Beautiful song

when we change then our culture will change too, you will remember this after it is too late, and there were those who tried to stop it

I will write whatever i like. There are no rules as to what you can or cannot write.
I am Irish, I have every right to post comments relating to Ireland, more that you...you are GERMAN - I was born, bred and live here, you were not. So YOU shut up.
And perhaps you should learn some manners, do you tell people to SHUT UP wherever you go?
waaeaa 1 year ago
No but i think in your case its really something that needs to be done. You spammed the whole fuckin commentlist now. And of course you are aloud to write what ever you like (actually you are not) but perhaps the word german made you even angrier. So ill be quite now and hope you be quite now too because as it seems you still dont get the point here. Those comments just ruin the mood of people trying to have some unbiased fun here with the song.Guys like you talk about imigrants on a funeral too

you are an imbecile, and no doubt facts from a paper got you all angry and frustrated bcoz you are some leftie pro immgration nut, who loves to shout racist and nazi....its the new facism, especially in emasculated Germany.
Does it make you feel better to shout racism and feel all righteous
Must make you very angry when facts that go against your religion are posted. like mine

if you are really interested in the music - then you would have ignored the comment and listened to it.
But you are not, and you are so full of bile you had to make several comments to it.
And typical leftist comment - replying to your nonsense is not SPAM ....it is replying to your nonsense....as well as your friend Duone

LoL what tells you i am left? because i am not...not at all. I just cant stand people like you who are the ones full of bile offering a whole canal to this one problem and talking to people about nothing else. Ive got enough of you ignorant fanatic...guy. Im the one who will shut up no to be finally able to listen to the music again as you said 8) Focusing is sometimes really hard with all the bullshit in the world and on web.

what tells me you are leftie?
the fact that you ignore facts - the comemnts I post are news fact, now why could someone not handle news?
If I read that 1000 ppl came to Dublin from Africa this weekend - how does that bother me, if it is fact...it shouldn't
It will only bother me, if it goes against an agenda I have.......just like it did with you.
2) You tell ppl to shut up when it goes against your world view....that is what marxists do
You are a leftie ....no doubt about it

One last comment here: AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. I am moreof a conservative then most 50 year olds. And i think you still dont get what i said. I dont ignore anything here all i say is that this isnt the right place to write it (i can write stuff where ever i want bla bla) but if you are really interested in making something happen why do you comment here and not somewhere where it helps? Thats all i ment and said no ignoring facts or nothing

Are you sure its one last comment...you said that 3 comments ago......yet another leftist characteristic. Yup you are a leftist, (saying you are a conservative - did I mention they outright lie too)
I post my comments everywhere, (yet you assumed otherwise - another leftist trait)
I am Irish, you are German, these facts are FACTS, nothing else, if you cannot handle facts, then you have a problem with truth, but that is how Germany is now - oppressed and broken

I am Irish, I ahve more right to speak about Ireland than a German.
You need to examine what you are saying, why do you find facts such a problem....if they are facts, then what is the problem?
What has your state done over the last 60 yrs to make your head bowed and afraid to not acknowledge facts....c,mon German, your ppl always used to be a great people for facts.
Ask yourself, why can I not simply deal with a fact, but call a person who says a fact - a bigot
Why? You must ask yourself

absolutely right,
they may grew older every year... and badly enaugh sometimes one dies... but everyone dies, when his time comes. but the spirit of the dubliners... it will never die.
and being part of something like that, it also makes the single people immortal in a way.

CD with irish folk standarts performed by the Dubliners and others was one of the first cd's I've fallen in love with. Thanks for that, Dubliners! :)

Well done, Ronnie & the Dubs. One hundred thousand hits and rising. I remember Ronnie telling me that he loved the final verse best - the one about the ghost moon being followed by the rising sun. You're still rising, Ronnie.

I think it this song is amazing and think of dad when i hear it. He doesn't like the song but i think thats because he doesn't like the direct nature of the song.
Its like the composer is saying-
Ya you have problems, but you need to see past what has been done and meet the future head on. It may or may not get easier but keep struggling. It'll be worth it
haha seems like such an effort when ur tired!

Ronnie Drew and my grandfather had an uncanny resemblance to each other. I think the words to this song speak to the courage and strength that I remember Papa always had. And, of course, so did Ronnie Drew. Thank you for posting. It's a beautiful piece.

THE state has spent more than €6.8m in the past 5 yrs on flights to send failed asylum-seekers back to their countries.
6,000 people are now classified as 'evading deportation' with only a quarter of all orders actually ever implemented.
In the past 6 yrs, justice ministers have signed close to 8,500 deportation orders fewer than 2,500 of these have ended in repatriation.
