My my Matt - you have done some DardisMusic work over the past day or so! Thanks so much!

[encinitasmel]

I love it , great sound and video!!

Mel.

[DardisMusic]

All very simple I suppose. Thanks a lot for watching and commenting!

[LesSimmons]

This is really nice. You voice seems really well suited to the Irish folk style. I could definitely hear this rolling out over the hills. Truly amazing. And thanks again for subbing me. It means a lot from someone with your talent.

[DardisMusic]

Thanks Les - 'you the man' is a phrase I could throw in your direction and know it will be caught by safe hands. That makes your kind comments all the more appreciated! Thanks!

[p0nette]

this is very "irish" :D wow, i really enjoyed this song! simple but efficient!! i remember walking down camden street too... aah nostalgic!

[DardisMusic]

Camden Street! There are some really great pubs around there - we'll have to organise a meeting :oD

[p0nette]

oh wow well whenever you want! actually i used to live in this area so i get very nostalgic! i would love to go back there :)

[jadeeslayton]

awesome vocals! your voice sounds wonderful and this is a great song! i like the atmosphere, very nice :)

[DardisMusic]

wow - what a comment for me to find waiting for me tonight! Thanks a lot!

[bentonio07]

Left a comment here yesterday, at least I thought I had, well, Happy St Patrick's - a bissl verspätet LOL

Anyway Kev, when I heard this I again thought how intesne you sound with just you and guitar, still here I could hear some instrumentation with some sustained notes (harmonica, violin or cello or sth) and some orchestra drums from very far away

[DardisMusic]

Very far away indeed. I managed to play the two/three notes I can on a harmonica without making a mistake :o)

[MightyTiny]

I think I saw your "Ice Cream Man" cover before (which I liked very much!) - now I rediscovered you through your wonderful collaboration with WaitsWatcher, singing one of my favorite Waits songs, and I decided to look through some of your videos. Now this is just a magnificent song, easily one of the best original songs by YouTubers I've seen/heard! Methinks I'm going to have to favorite & subscribe! :)

[DardisMusic]

I remember you. Thanks for the subscription and for the nice comments. And Happy Saint Patrick's Day!

[Premedia]

The boy and I just had another listen before school. He' all green.

[DardisMusic]

:o) Happy St. Patrick's Day Luis & Son.

[SEATTLEGRL1]

I like your voice as it sounds very much like traditional Irish music of the past although the words are contemporary.:) *Sandy*

[DardisMusic]

Thanks Sandy! Very nice words for me to read this St. Patrick's Day.

[Susherax]

Hey, you remind me of Bill Ramsey!

[DardisMusic]

:o) Not in bed yet?

[Susherax]

Who, me? No. Cranberry-Schorle always keeps me awake. Wo needs ecstasy?

[Ottawarocket]

ReaLLY good song Kevin! I enjoy your music a lot

Rocket

[DardisMusic]

Thanks Rocket! Glad you liked the song!

[47XXYs]

Great song. well done. :)

[DardisMusic]

Thanks Justin - maybe share a pint with your kind self this summer!

[ArtistIreland]

For sure. Happy St Patrick's day. Kevin.

Peace always. Justin

[AlbertMondback]

Amazing as usual.

[jimski123]

love the the tune...the video..the story....very well done.

[DardisMusic]

Thank you sir!

[parakarter]

Wow! Is that impressive or wot? Excellent!

An amazing voice, very expressive guitar and a very, very good song. Well done!

Did you know you have a passing resemblance to the actor Jimmy Nesbitt?

Where do you normally perform?

[DardisMusic]

Hi Pati,

Thanks for the comment. Jimmy Nesbitt is a name I am not really familiar with but I will look it up - I don't know how optimistic I am ;o)

I am really only playing in Germany at the moment - to expand further would indeed be nice. Thanks again for the support!

Kevin

[LeeshaHarvey]

What a great story; what a great song! They should be singing this in pubs the world over! ;-)

[DardisMusic]

Give it time ;o)

[TrouzFolkRock]

Great as always. I love your original songs!

Do we year your guitar on that by the way?

[DardisMusic]

That's the old one! The cardboard box. The new one was used in The Castle for the first time last week and sounded great!

[KathaleenWhisper]

as always I'm super impressed. I just *adore* your voice. And the....feel, i guess, of your music. :)

[DardisMusic]

Thanks sister! Very nice comment!

[waitswatcher]

wow, that was fantastic!

:-)

[DardisMusic]

:-) Thanks!

i've never found a four leaf clover;-)

Hi Kevin, Another great song my friend. Have you moved back home? 5*

Dave

[DardisMusic]

No, I'm still here in Germany but so many people have asked me if I'm German that I just thought it would be clearer if I 'moved' to the Irish YouTube.

Thanks for the kind comments Dave (again) - much appreciated.

[4u2know1]

Great video & music ☆! Well done☆! Outstanding ☆! Cool ☆!

[DardisMusic]

You forgot 'orgasmic' ;o)

But 'wow' - thanks for the (extremely) positive comment!

[ACU5TIC]

Great song,you can take the man out of Ireland ,but not Ireland out of the man. 5*

[DardisMusic]

Very true! Thanks for watching my musical friend!

[hhartely35]

Love the irish theme you have going. You should get it in a studio and release a CD.

[DardisMusic]

You're putting Steve & I under a lot of pressure Joern :o) Nice pressure though - thanks for the support!

[DardisMusic]

Dardis1 gave me 5* anyway - that certainly helped!

[redact11]

"...long time ago but I still have your face..." That line moves me so. I just saw my lost love, recently (I have known him for 10ish years) so this song hits home, for sure. You capture the beauty and innocence of a love once shared and still cherished, beautifully (at least that is what I get from this song). I'm left with a half - smile *sigh* 5 stars. P.S. HUGS.

[DardisMusic]

Hugs for you too! Your interpretation is pretty accurate too - not just love love for a person but also youth, innocence and a home, in some ways. Sounds sad but it's not really meant to. It's also moving on, I suppose (and hopefully, forward). Thanks again for watching & commenting!

[Boucrate]

I see you have a concept going on here ..Well gonna have to watch the others lol! Cool song my friend!

[DardisMusic]

'Concept' is far too big a word for it but thanks for the checking out!

[Boucrate]

Yea I use big words for nothing sometime lol!

Your song the text the music on this video is very special..Very intimate..all together like a little piece of theatre.Cool!

[Tilly220]

Oh I do love your videos!!!

[DardisMusic]

And I love your comments soooooo much Tilly.

[SomebodyIusedtoknow]

Such a beautiful song. There's so much richness to your sound. Always so haunting. And speaking the words to the camera... a lovely touch.

I have something for you, very soon ♥

[DardisMusic]

♡

[nezoone]

my computer is slow at loading videos today...so it stopped half way into the first verse. it was quite upsetting since i really wanted to hear the rest of the song/story.

and a simply beautiful video!

[SilentDilemma]

yeah I've been having that problem all weekend too Zane. I'm just pausing them until they finish loading now - it's so annoying when a song stops just when you're getting into it!

[DardisMusic]

Thanks Zane!

[prboyd]

Can imagine being sat in Temple Bar listening to that. That is a good thing :)

[DardisMusic]

We'll have to organise that sometime soon ;o)

[prboyd]

I work for a Dublin company now Kevin and am over a fair bit. The legions of Polish girls are HONEYS and giving the beautiful Dublin girls a run for their money.. :)

[psychomessiahs]

Any chance to hear the story you are telling? From your facial expressions it seem to be interesting.

I like that song, it goes well with beer as I have found out ^^

[DardisMusic]

Hi Andreas,

The story is basically me saying the lyrics, but in a storytelling way. So there's almost nothing but 'hum, hah' that's not in the song lyrics.

I have lots of beer tonight - I suspect it's a bit too sentimental for alcohol - that's my opinion now!

[WizKil]

Very Very Nice!!  Great Job! *****

[DardisMusic]

Thank you my friend.

[Tigerkrieger]

Simply beautiful!

[DardisMusic]

Thanks for watching Markus. I promise to play this the next time I'm in the Castle.

[bear9253]

Absolute genius. This shows why I believe you are one of the best - no frills, no synthesizers, no tricks - simply pure, raw talent. Thanks for sharing.

[DardisMusic]

*blushes*

Thanks so much Bear!

[ArtistIreland]

Great song Kevin.

[DardisMusic]

Thanks Justin. I'll be thinking of you come March17th.

[Premedia]

Congratulations, Proud Irish man. This is lyrically and musically one of your best.

[DardisMusic]

Thanks Luis. I wrote this in 1998 - I'm getting old I think!

[OperaVlog]

Like!

[DardisMusic]

:o)

[SilentDilemma]

Does every song you do turn to gold? :)

This is superb. The lyrics took me along for the ride, and really conveyed the bittersweetness St Patrick's Day: fond memories that obviously still make you smile, but a touch of sadness that you can't be there. Musically, well it's great but that's a given anyway. Loved the vocal harmony.

And the video? I'm just jealous that I didn't come up with the idea of turning the lyrics into a conversation like that!

5 zillion stars.

[DardisMusic]

You really are too kind Steve! Thanks for the comment, stars and just for being so supportive.

[Colfish500]

Good to see you another original song. I was beginning to fear you were running out of ideas! Very nice song!

[DardisMusic]

The ideas are there but making decent recordings is the challenge! Thanks for watching Anna!

[bunkomen]

You're talent is amazing Kevin...

This song is one of your best for me !

Thank you. *****

Thomas

[DardisMusic]

Thank you Thomas - I am really happy to hear you like this one!
