Hey thanks for sharing this song! I've really gotten into Irish music the last few years,maybe that's strange because I'm Canadian with mostly Hungarian background.....
btw I think your playing is excellent & sos your singing.
I could actually understand every word of this song for the 1st time, even tho I've heard it so many times before.
Who cares about the accent. You're right you do have to sing it that way, as it should be. Should Filipino cover bands sing in Tagalog because their American accents are off? Boulder-bash... Should William Hung not sing because he has an annoying Latino American accent? I say keep on rocking in the free world.
the fake irish accent's bloody annoying. i don't care if you have irish ancestry, i have irish, scottish and dutch ancestry but i have an english accent because i live in england.
You can't sing those songs with an American accent. You almost have to sing them like that. Thats what gives them character.
Thats actually me playing. My brother uploaded those videos of me. And I have Irish ancestry. My Irish accent isn't the greatest but besides that I'm not that bad.
Seriously, A guy in his bed room can not be this good. From a good Irish boy, this guy is awesome. I havent heard better...Remember.. there is always whiskey in the jar...Thanks
for all the people poking fun of the irish accent.....the song wouldnt be good with an mexican accent-keep singing this song! I love it!

I can't believe all if you people are poking fun of the accent. I learned it off a cd of irish drinking songs.
The people who poke fun of me because of that should be ashamed of themselves. At least someone is trying to keep this music alive.

"you're sweeter, stronger, tastier and spunkier than tea" is not the pogues version. this is:
Oh, whisky you're the devil
you're leading me astray
over hills and mountains
and to Amerikay
you're sweetness from the Bleachner
and spunkier than tea
oh whiskey you're my darling drunk or sober

You must be English. Irish folk music is second only to American folk music.
As the Irish sarcastically say "God bless england so we say, whack for the diddle of the die do day"
