Great Big Sea - Mary-Mac (MV)

[superbanshee666]

@TheSrkkl actually i watch lots of music vids on the net but I don't have multi accounts! I'm free to comment on any video. / IF you don't like freedom of speech perhaps you should move to CHINA

[Thelivinglegend78]

i first heard this in ela cuz were doin a poetry unit lol

[superbanshee666]

WHAT original songs have these people written ? / not very much. / ALAN DOYLE couldn't write a good song to save his life ./ he should go into politics with all the other useless  HACKS .

[TheSrkkl]

@superbanshee666 Haha, do you have nothing better to do then make multiple accounts and troll these vids? Pretty funny.

[howie9751]

This was the first song I heard by Great Big Sea and I was floored. It's just gotten better since then.

[mattman91c]

wow i googled this song and started watching the video and saw that it was full of puppets....... I am scared half to death of puppets. (shiver)

[krougerlover13]

@dotmw if ur talking about the clothes we still where that romd here

[xanaminx]

I like the Carbon Leaf version a touch better, but I love the puppets.

[aobpodcast]

Total tongue twister!!!!!

[ShannonIsNumber1]

19 peoples' mothers are making them marry mary mac.

[aleyboo123261]

kinda in love with this song :)

[Kyaris]

this is a true newfie using his friend's account saying " happy st. Patrick's Day!!!"

[Scrizzard]

What a strange music video. 2:23

[TheLadykylin]

wonder how many times Marry is said in this song?

[harryjackson913]

puppets are always the best way to make a music video! :)

[reddragonvideo]

who do I contact to get permission to stream this on my indpendent media broadcast?

[guitarherolegend55]

Amazing song

Pretty creepy video

[crystalcanadiangirl]

Wish they came to Toronto, Ontario. :(

I LOVE GBS!!

[snowbarbieblue]

Scary.... But it's GBS so I love it!!! :)

[TheKendraPittman]

I LOVE ALAN DOYLE<3<3 MARRY ME ALAN DOYLE

[Dotmw]

This video is so 90's it hurts

[jcbfeather]

i just whant to meat mary mac

[taskforce58]

This is the craziest version of Mary Mac that I know of.

[angrypunkbronxkid]

One of the Girls should do a cover of this song!

[BlueBombers4Life]

18 people wanted to marry mari-mac.

[clvlndmike]

Great Song! ...Creepy video... but Great Song!

[diceman2010]

killer tune

[diceman2010]

killer tune

[Nutty6986]

asshole they made it frist mother fucker go to hell

[auraofgloom]

like the Clancy brothers better but this versions still fun!

[namtafxxx]

18 pepole whouldent no goodmusic if it snuk up behind em and bite em in the arse

[notanasian]

18 ppl dont know good music when they hear it.....AND PPL THINK RAPPERS R IMPRESIVE!

[funetiks]

@patry1663 Ive got a great big sea of land... the U.S. ... ... and a border the size of an Ocean.

[funetiks]

All of you think just because a group made a video with puppets, that the puppets are real characters. Im not the one with the issue while you watch Robot Chicken and judge the charatcers! Mari-Mac is a real person, but puppets work for free...

[october987654321]

18 people tried to get mary mac on her back but couldnt

[pspboy7]

LOL, this song makes me laugh hehe, love it... but it gets so fast at the end I pass out hehe.

[Lren2365]

Does Mary-Mac have something under her pinny? lol

[CdaSlav]

my buddy and i went camping for a week and we tried to pick on on the lyrics by listening to the song and even when we came back ( we were gone for a week, we were drunk since we left) we still couldn't sing the damn thing, even with the lyrics in front of us hahaha we're getting better tho

[melancholymistress89]

@CdaSlav I stayed at a friend of mine's place over the summer one year and started listening to Great Big Sea on speakers while I made breakfast. He tried a few times to sing this song, but I seem to be the only one that I know that can keep up! It's a tongue-twister, heh

[410Lulu]

Great!

[adamkswartz]

This is a great song.

[ninnyo]

Violinguy and guitarist could be twins ^^ Like this version of the song, I love the band :D

[shyviolet1221]

I love GBS! they played at the theatre by me a couple of months ago, but unfortuneately I missed it. :(

[derekby1]

GBS...Keepin' the old stuff alive~~~ Wish I could sing this bloody fast!!

[lovedeliberate]

Oh, my GOD, They look so young! & that was cute when Séan kissed Alan on the cheek. :D

[LittleBirdPathfinder]

I am absolutely amazed........just found out about the Great Big Sea and became an instant follower! My goodness! I feel that I have finally BEEN born! :) I found this group by doing some geneology work.....what a great joy to find this great group! I'm very/very happy about this. Just love the music!

[slugg63]

GBS was part of the Olympics entertainment. Just at the end.

[comanche119]

@slugg63 im puzzled why they didn't sing: ordinary day.. because its ideal for it...

[dennygg2w]

.......come to long island more offten.........

[janet2buns]

the boys were young back then!

[gumdropkitty]

Now that was entertaining!!! Wooten!!!

[dasbakon]

Fuckin A!

[waivedwench]

My favourite Great Big Sea Song!

[xoxBreannaxox123]

GBS did a show at the Olympics, it was on MuchMusic for an hour. :D

[TheGingaNinjaShow]

only newfies can sing this by's <3 Woot!

[koolkat7406]

@TheGingaNinjaShow oh yes! you got it right on the dot, by!

[philip639]

Fast...

[adder133]

decent song

[kisadeluna]

LOVE IT!!

[chezz564]

east coast CANADA ROCKS

[KrazyKanuc]

Lucky Mary Mac!!!

[951jayy159]

i liked it WAY better live

[messisoccer900]

It would have just been awesome if GBS had done a show at the opening of the Vancouver 2010 olympics.

[videowatcher1337]

@messisoccer900

there playing at the ending ceremonies i think. or close to!!

[sammiiboyy]

no ddidnt was there

[messisoccer900]

Too Bad they didn't

At least Nickelback was there

[GenghisWanghis]

or at the closing ceremonies aside from the most stereotypical BLOW UP DOLL show of all time, ALL TIME!

[start690193]

and closing. they really are a better example of Canada then nellie furtado.

[agenda88s8]

@start690193 agreed

[agenda88s8]

@messisoccer900

I agree!!

I was sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooo damn pissed at my city for not including them in the olympics!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!

[walksofar]

@messisoccer900

or even at the end, instead we got nickelback...fucking eh.

[nintenj09]

@messisoccer900 Apparently drunks who sing about strippers and various other sell outs represent us better

[HoojoASS]

@messisoccer900

I totally agree. Instead we get those talentless jock assholes in Nickel Back? When they played at the closing ceremonies I almost contemplated moving to the frickin states...yikes.

[Jrdu1388]

@HoojoASS I feel better as a Canadian to claim Celine as one of ours over Nickelback any day.

[davidcool140]

@messisoccer900 yea to bad they didint :(

[sweetdrae]

woulda been a better movie if the female puppet was "classy"

[2mandrake2]

He's a lot more attractive with short hair. :B

[VamptasticXOX]

this song is epic :)

[rockyroad440]

ive known most of the great big sea songs since i was 4

[funetiks]

I wish Mari-Mac's mother was making Mari-Mac marry me. :D

[mikecozza69]

Dude, shes a puppet LOL

[funetiks]

They couldn't afford the real Mari-Mac for filming in time.

[VeritasVacuus]

@funetiks You me both buddy.

[ninnyo]

@funetiks My mother's makin' me marry mary-mac! (H)

[lsiegris]

@funetiks You got a puppet fetish?? thats kinda weird man.

[sarynn2]

@funetiks Is mary mac hot?

[funetiks]

@sarynn2 The Newfoundland Mari-Mac is super hot, and like I said, shes out of Great Big Sea's budget.

[dsmith6484]

@funetiks I'm thinking that you'll have to get up early.

[ViewWatchGori19]

@funetiks Your wish is granted.

[sulz1234]

I wish it lasted another whole 3 minutes, like the one in concert that feels longer!

[Xx666jewl666xX]

this song is epic =3

i can't help but sing along.

[eagledragon75]

my class sang this song in gr 5 and it was epic

[Cafeeine]

How many of you ran out of breath? :P

[alittlebluehouse]

Grade 5 seriously? Hmmm, not really appropriate lyrics for a bunch of 10 years is it?

Lot of other fellas try to get her on her back

But I'm thinking that they'll have to get up early

[Tyler14young]

yeah that was my favorite songs of grade 5-6 haha used to listen to them while doing homework.. helped me focus quite a bit believe it or not

[buzzsaw64]

You know if anti really wants to pick at which words were used then he should be told, it's AN ocean. Not A ocean. lol

[Attus]

Is it only me or does the song length of 2:34 seem very surreal? It feels like the song is a lot longer than that when you listen to it.

[darkwisdom666999666]

It's patry1663 not party1663. And the guy put some humor in that sentece u seem to not understand, antigamefire. But u could easily deduct that from the fact that "Great Big Sea" is also the name of the band and that it's followed by a "lol". He mentioned, i quote, "Atlantic Ocean", which clearly suggests he knows the Atlantic is indeed an ocean. And yeah, romanians (like myself) actually have "Romanian" as a native language :).. Ontopic: I freakin' love this band.

[aide445]

wow antigamefire he was mentioning it in good hummer due to sea and ocean being synonyms for a large body of water

aka

ATLANTIC OCEAN

wow trying to be superior in a language that i am guessing isn't the guys first language i am guessing?

[antigamefire]

party1663, it is a ocean. not a sea.

[MichaleZombie]

best music to booze^^

[lolanater16]

i just saw these guys live yesterday 7th row center!!!! it was awesome!

[pentium449]

[iferaustin]

[katielangille96]

i like it i am a huge gbs fan

[iferaustin]

Im a huge fan as well .

[hunnahbunnah]

some of da lyrics r wrong

[M1A1cavalryman]

Some of da lyrics r different in different versions of the song. Kinda like Garryowen and many other songs that way.

[RoderickStrong]

It's a traditional Scottish song, and there are several versions of it, just like there are several versions of many traditional Irish, Scottish, and English songs

[Shinju14]

I love this song.

[pocopilot]

They are coming to Guelph March 18th!!!! Im going for sure. This is fun, dancing and drinkin music

[thelawtman]

I love GBS must have seen them at least 3 times when they have come to good old Saint John, New Brunswick

[BLEHMAN45]

Sackville my man, is where the party is at. if the party involved one horse...

[brpierce]

One horse falling through ice?

[ihatecolereynolds]

Wow. I'm in 6th grade and my class and I learned this song in music class today.

[ihatecolereynolds]

[jamfuncool]

[yummyyellowwiggle]

Love these guys... Brings me back to my single days...

[blaquetears]

i saw these guys live like idk 2 weeks ago!!! this song was the best!!! they are sooo cute!! they signed my arm!!

[tfkman45]

heard this song live in barrie yesterday

[KeirHopwood]

The combination of dire 1980s music video production values, a brilliant manic Newfie version of a dodgy Irish song and rather silly puppet actions make this a certain winner.

[ZombieKiller333]

mary mac in this video looks like uma thurman

[theeviltwin4ever]

I THOUGHT I WAS ALONE ON THAT IDEA :O

lol

[LoafofCat]

I can sing it word for word until it gets crazy fast. My girlfriend loves this band, and I don't blame her one bit! It just oozes historical tunage. I really respect these guys.

[EyeWitness101]

Yay! Newfoundland Pride! (Is from newfoundland)

[tiorules]

We'll all be feeling merry when i merry mary mac

[gathy222]

i cant understand anything!!! cool song

[duffymoon01]

veryyyy canadian! canadian pride!!!

[yuyufan43]

Haahaa. Creepy puppets. I still like Al the most. But Sean did awesome for this song.

[cageguard]

im gunna get killed for this one cuz its youtube but here goes.. CARBON LEAF IS BETTER

[StructureOfAnUp]

I got two of them to autograph my banjo at folk fest and i was talking to them, they were saying that the members of Carbon Leaf are good friends of theirs and that they often share ideas

[twommmm]

Ya thats why your here right?

[anooseholay]

I just saw GBS the other night in Portland Me for the second time and if Carbon Leaf is truly better than I think I need to start listening to their stuff as well; because GBS is simply incredible.
