[MrRacer818]

[TheDread1337]

Phil... such a underestimated artist... Thin Lizzy <3

[googlematt]

Man I wish Phil had survived his 30s

[michael6mac]

For some reason Phil Lynott reminds me of Denis the Menace!

[BradytoWelker101]

I'm so happy!! Someone found lost Thin Lizzy tracks that had never been published!!! They're comin back!!

[partypianoplayer]

@BradytoWelker101 Never been published?

[SatanicalEve]

@partypianoplayer They found over 700 unreleased songs and material. A lot of it is outtakes and alternate takes of songs already released. But some of it is original material the band and Phil recorded that never seen the light of day

[shanegalang2]

I see 24 people are tone deaf and no nothing about music!!

[TakeADumpOnUrChest]

alright

[superbaydog]

Did anyone ever think of Van Morrison and Domino? Just sayin......

[egnbigdave]

@superbaydog Phil was heavily influenced by Van Morrison, as was Springsteen and Geldof. People used to compare Phil to Bruce a lot, but it was the common influence.

[sharonfromtanana]

@superbaydog for what?

[Fitch019]

R.I.P Phil Lynott!

[heartkiller1974]

I want to run free with the bufalo

even if I have to leave my house...

[sharonfromtanana]

@heartkiller1974 you'd have to be an indian in the 1800's; i'm one and i don't even know how to run with the mighty moose now! lol

[ajgators]

My girlfriend doesn't listen to this kind of music but I sang the entire song to her one day driving and I'm pretty sure she fell in love with me right there. She was all teary eyed and I can't sing for shit but I sure did give it my all. Thin Lizzy is such an amazing group of folks. There music is something else. I only wish I were around to meet Phil but hopefully I'll get to pay his statue a visit one day. R.I.P Phil!

[sharonfromtanana]

@ajgators that sounds really sweet because i could tell you know the feeling of this song and now she does.

[IrishGuy2k9]

WOO THIN LIZZY!!!! Love ya Phil! Thin Lizzy, an bhánna cheoil is fearr ar domhain! :D

[lutesk]

This may be the best pure rock song ever. Get some Altecs with at least a 10" woofer and horns. I'm 53 and it's goosebump city every time I listen to this and Whisky In The Jar. The original guitar army.

[CoolSebbe431]

Second solo is siiiiiiiick, wish I could play it :(

[bobbillx1]

[TheYajrennat]

RIP Punk Rock Andy. Run free

[makemeateeshirt]

[sTalnaker13]

Man I am 20 now and my dad used to play this song early in the mornings when he would drop me off at my moms. But when we were in the car, this was me and my dads time to eachother and bond through music. This was our song

[Lisahofman]

[AntmanFelix]

[veryverybigpotato]

First went to see Thin lizzy when i was 12, this song and Jailbreak live were very memerable indeed. Anyone who has been to see thin lizzy will know what i mean about jailbreak! :)

[Volmy122]

[MangelKorn]

Runnign free with the Buffalos!!!!!!!

[tokorev747777]

[kd8lcx]

I'm 44 and love Thin Lizzy and this song.... RIP Phil...Cozy.....Gary and those who are gone. Eric Bell Rocks and was the man on the guitar...

[kmars21]

I was took in Texas

[grabbermavman]

After al the drugs,booze,hot chicks, and concerts, this song still rocks me. just turned 50 the other day, and i can remember rockin with my crew thinking i'll never reach 50!

great music. some how i wish we could all go back. rock on my friends, rock on!

[bigblockelectra]

just heard this live at the priest/lizzy/black label society concert in seattle

badass

[zeppelin264]

@bigblockelectra I just went to their concert in San Diego. Awesome show! BLS kinda sucks though...

[00Jackacid]

phil had pain in his heart man.

[asilaydying2234]

Those two solos never fail to give me chills.

[MangelKorn]

just epic

nothing more to say.

[SavoPaddy]

had a really shit day lol

[SavoPaddy]

had a really shit until I got on to this page, this song picks me up everytime, that solo is one of the most joyous in rock history and no corn or cheese attached! Genuine Class Act

[KnifeInTheAss]

@SavoPaddy :) You made a mistake it seems like ur telling us you took a shite but then this song made you better? I know what you mean just abit funny....

[TheGaariesta]

I can't believe this band is almost unknown in France... Far behind David Guetta :'(

[Syzygy60]

listen to Mountain Nantucket Sleighride if u want to learn

[Syzygy60]

maybe I just don't like you

[tokorev747777]

Every time i hear this master piece i think of Red Dead Redemption! You should totally play it online with your friends and then play this song. Its almost Godly!

[axllovesslash]

@tokorev747777 sorry buddy thats not cool at all, thats actually really gay and almost desecrates phil and what this songs about

[tokorev747777]

@axllovesslash What the fuck? How does it desecrate Phil Lynott in ANY way? Me and my friends love this song! Wouldn't that make his spirit live on dumb fuck?

[JBshotJL]

I did my homework while listening to this... Okay. So I just listened to this. It was worth it.

[cutedolly64]

MAR I WEEE AWAZ

[MrTjsimon]

one of the greatest black rock artist ever He wrote , sang and played the bass

[MrTjsimon]

one of the greatest black rock artist ever

[labtide]

ghostfish i'm 52 and you are so right man.

[atomicpunk48]

How can it be that this 35 year old song rocks as hard as if it was recorded yesterday? Glad I grew up when I grew up.

[ramblin9er]

I saw Thin Lizzy back in the 70's in Phoenix. The lead in group was Queen who had the hits Killer Queen and Bohemian Rhapsody. Great concert! Great Times! The end of this jam is so killer even to this day. One of my best. Hope you younger folks out there enjoy this classic tune.

"And i'll move my fingers...up and down...up and down" can just imagine him doing a cheeky wink at some girl in the audience ^^

[shurdi3]

Riding in the rodeo

[TheHoworth]

[frenchfriedfrenchmen]

[slapshot37GNR]

The best of the best...Thin Lizzy, another gift from Ireland

[joebstarsurfer]

i hated all this music in my youth.Well now im an old bastard i love this

[SkyValleyProduction]

@joebstarsurfer amen brother.

[miles7161]

my fav foso

[ghostfish01]

I am 54, and how I do remember this song. I remember the days I thought would never end, the friends I thought would be around for ever. But, time changes all things, some for the better and some things not so. But, in my dreams, I see those friends again some times who have gone on, and for a while we are together again, carefree and happy again. Peace to you my friends, smooth sailing and one day, I will see you again. This is music, people, this is music.

[36hcupsizeandgrowing]

@ghostfish01 YES IT IS..

[DamienNeverwinter]

@ghostfish01 What happened to your friends sir?

[savoybill]

@ghostfish01 I get ya! peace brother.

[atomicpunk48]

@ghostfish01 I don't think I could have said it any better. Time changes all things.

[nate556]

@ghostfish01 I'm 28 and I know exactly what you're talking about. So much loss, and the pain that never goes away. We should never let go of those memories. A day doesn't go by I don't think about friends and loved ones passed. The greatest dishonor we could ever do them, is to forget them. 

[Rush2112Power]

@ghostfish01 that is so well said....Beautiful.... Peace brother !!

[drunkrtard]

@ghostfish01 That's beautiful but at the same time I'm over 30 and it depresses me at the same time. Bring it back.

[ihopesome1readsthis]

@ghostfish01 im 14 and i know this is music

[agnikolaos]

@ghostfish01

I do not know who you are, but nicely written. When I listen to Thin Lizzy, I remember my friends from years back.

[marcusceltic]

@ghostfish01 You are so lucky :)

[Danfrombackhome]

21 commies disliked this shit. WTF is wrong with people man, this is pure ledg music.

[Danfrombackhome]

[FashTurbo]

rock and roll

rock and roll [rókən rṓl]

or rock'n'roll [rókən rṓl]

1. pop music with heavy beat: pop music derived from blues music that has heavily stressed beats.

2. Cowboy Song by Thin Lizzy

[ArabJihadi]

[kaykieslice]

dave bachinski 

[nmmale10000]

This is Classic Music. Too bad some of the younger People have to use stupid tv shows to hear it. And then they find it on youtube and say Duh i heard it on tv.

[tylerc1992charlo]

@nmmale10000 did you really?

[revan210]

@nmmale10000 This song was on a TV show?

I bought the album myself :)

[theonlypiratepanda]

@nmmale10000 id just like to say thats not true for all younger people, im 14 and i had no idea it was on some tv show, im here because i want to listen to amazing music, no other reason

[YamaKazoo]

[briant420]

Fuck Family Guy and all it's spin-offs.

[badspeiier]

@briant420 Family guys is awesome do not be down cause they rip on stuff you like. Like South Parks says, everything is funny or nothing is funny.

[jimllfaxit]

To the guitarists,

On the second solo (Robertson) does it sound like he has the wah pedal half way to achieve that tone?

[sakalak]

@jimllfaxit Yes.

[jimllfaxit]

@sakalak Thanks

[boysen1967]

Go Black Irish God bless his Soal

[SPAREPARTSCENTRE]

A masterpiece for sure - what band in yesterday or today rival Lizzy with the cowboy at the helm? I can't think of any - I'm 50 btw

[ZZRoxxx]

Simply Beautiful

[arai59]

Classic 70's........glad I was able to live them.

[hardcoremittensnikki]

Im downloading this song right now to make a cd for a cookout. Ima bring the JAMS!!!!!!:)

[tornmask]

the classic voice of Phil (THiN LiZZY) Lynott  is pure LEGENDARY! =oD

[MikeStivic]

The guitar solos remind me of Prince...he must be a fan of TL...can't blame him...good stuff.

[briant420]

Family Guy is the worst fucking show ever.

[MAGNAxCHAOS]

@briant420 i too am getting a little fett up with that stupid peter's cowboy song as the first link to this

[MrUgotpranked]

19 people love men,..

[skatekid979]

19 people are indians!

[Botulizard]

Thin Lizzy>U2.

Nobody can even suggest that U2 is the best Irish band. Not as long as Thin Lizzy ever existed.

[bluegrassreb1]

Leah=Loxz

[beergut66]

goddamn, i'm tired of seein kids postin age and sayin all music today sucks. it's not fuckin true. stop watchin mtv kid and use your internet, plenty of good bands around. take some time and look. parlor mob. no auto tune.

[cytyson1]

@beergut66 I agree, I always used to think there was no new good bands, but when I started going to motorbike rally's I heard some, There's actually loads, just because there not in the charts or on MTV or whatever doesn't mean there not there, there just not mainstream. Like The Answer, Gentlemen Of Distorted Sound, There's tons, read total guitar or classic rock. XD

[SPAREPARTSCENTRE]

@cytyson1 That may be - but they won't ever be as good as the Liz IMHO - what band today has that magic?

[cytyson1]

[mashui99]

@cytyson1 Space bar! lol

[cytyson1]

@mashui99 Yh i know, sorry bout tht, culdnt fit it in :P :L

[danthemanager]

cant help but try and accept perplex's comment - wonderful to think that the music a 50 year old was brought up with, and still loves is to be carried on by (at least one youngster) who obviously appreciates music for musics sake and disregards the crap that is supposedly music these days. Good on ya perplex - :) :) :)

[4everliveLizzy]

I love Thin Lizzy. Black sabbath is considered the pioneers of metal. I disagree. Thin Lizzy is, they brought in the dual lead that every metal band since then has adopted. Best band ever!

[perplexedmongoose]

i'm only 14 years old, but i grew up listening to my parents music, and quite frankly they don't make music like this anymore, it's all auto-tuned shit, long live the legends of music, long live Phil Lynott

[mongoose201]

this goddamn song is a 5 minute guitar orgasm... have to love it.. holy shit

[Db60Dc19]

@mongoose201 If you like this one you will wet your pants on Thin Lizzy's Emerald!

[ThePissypete]

They just dont write songs like this anymore!

[johnnybgoodzm]

some of the best riffs ever

[arai59]

word.........4:20

[juli0cesar88]

jesucrist song



[cell9song]

If the 2nd guitar solo on the song doesn't give you goosepimples you are dead. Epic shit.

[gurlsingerfan]

@cell9song That you can say "2nd guitar sole" says it all....most bands would be content with one...:-). The greatest time you will ever hear this song is the first time, when you think the really hot shit has already been played, and then they pull out the big finish....remarkable hit power that....yeah, epic is a good word...I have been listening to the song for over 20 years and have never tired of it......

[kaykieslice]

@cell9song Agreed.

[Alzone1965]

@cell9song The whole song is epic shit dude

[DamienNeverwinter]

@cell9song Listened to you and just ordered this album on amazon

[atomicpunk48]

@cell9song Epic shit. You hit the nail on the head. And the first one's pretty damn good too.

[RockFan472]

@cell9song dude, if you dont like this song all together your dead!

[monkeyhanger24]

@cell9song RIP the 22

[Syzygy60]

@cell9song u mean I have to sit thru 2 solos?

[urmydarkstar]

[arsteniabrag]

[ltownguitarplayer]

[cowboykoolaid]

[Deetroiter]

One of the baddest tunes I've heard

[dangerdavidhilton]

@007Crusoe baaaaa means no !!

[shovelhead5656]

GREAT SONG

[darvon63]

Apaches grow. Don't fucking sleep.

[80skiki]

Sumtimez i wonder y utube puts a dislike button on master pieces like this one......

[lordantonsebastien]

christ, you guys knew how to rock

[taturner60141]

Gave me the "chills"the first time I heard it,still does to this day,all these years later! Thin Lizzy was {and is still}the best!

[ezinsure]

The THIN LIZZY masterpiece! This is the greatest song MOST people have never heard.  What a shame! The tempo changes, the lyrics, the passion, the drumming, the fantastic guitar shredding. Never to be duplicated, ever!

[Drcarlsosb]

I'm a Tigers Fan, we have the Big, Big potato, Papi Grande!!!!!!!!

[aldebarankanon]

It's ok amigo, just let me go... (awesome guitar solo) yeah!

[hakerlol]

amazing freedom anthem, thumbs up with u agree

[shephwd]

[keelanMPH]

18 People aren't Cowboys!

[Keijz74]

I love this.

[SuperHuinca]

Yeah !!!! ... Almost all the time I listen to this song and I repeat it over and over and again .... this song is life for my rocky ears !!!! ... wy wife almost all the time says " here we go again with that song" .... it takes me to hihger places .... Escucho a Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, Jimmy Hendrix y muchos más ... pero Thin Lizzy ganó mi corazón rockero con Cowboy Song !!!!

[spediteur84]

[uglytrucker15701]

[rodolfogarza526]

bacher bass and ampeg, PRIDIN' up Texas Band! GOT THE FORTUNE WATCH YOU BASS IT UP, AS TA LUEGO MIKE.

[tokorev747777]

I think of Red Dead Redemption every time i hear this Masterpiece :D

[williamped1]

can't help but hit replay, again and again and again.....ok, just one more time before bed.

[GibsonGuitarist666]

Dunno why people are comparing Led Zeppelin to Thin Lizzy.

led is classic old rock, thin lizzy is way harder rock.

But both rock our socks off, agreed?

[KnifeInTheAss]

Never Long Enough...

[unrealoreo2003]

Thumbs up if Thin Lizzy's picture in this video resembles boxy brown from athf.

[imalwaysrite666]

@unrealoreo2003 you mean they resemble thin lizzy!?? whoever boxy brown is im sure he's a douch bag that came after the lizz...

[unrealoreo2003]

@imalwaysrite666 ya, my grammar was off. and google 'boxy brown' instead of assuming someone you dont know to be a douche bag.

[imalwaysrite666]

@unrealoreo2003 well im sure i was right without havin to google prick!! and another thing im always right douch bag!! lol

[briant420]

The fact that "Family Guy" is referenced on this page is proof of the coming apocalypse.

[midniteangel35]

you zeppelin fux dont have a clue,,,,,, o yea let me hear stair way to heaven one more time wtf thin lizzy fell through the cracks they are one of the best bands ever they could never be a one hit wonder because all the songs are hits

[clix411]

@midniteangel35 hey i appreciate all of the older bands, but dont diss the Zep, they had many more HARD rockin hits, if the only thing you ever heard was Stairway then you really need to get out more, The Ocean? come on man, thats just bad ass, Immigrant song? nothing wrong with the Zep

[1981Brodo]

ummm.. you don't think i could sit here and list zeppelin hits? wow good job, you proved nothing!!! congrats!
