Dubliners : Rare Old Times : Dublin Ireland Photos

[oldpirate007]

This great songs can apply to so many cities, not just Dublin. When I hear it I think of the place where I grew up, which when from a town to a city in my 50 years. I can really understand the pain and bitterness in the song for I really don't recognize my hometown anymore, when I go back I can't help wonder what the Hell happened. I have heard people say life is about change, I have come to believe life is all about loss.

It makes me sad ,that so many of Dublin's

unique old buildings have been demolished,to make way for the generic sterile glass and concrete boxes that passes for architecture these days.O well thats progress, I supose!

I first heard this song sung by the musicians and local gentry at a famous Temple Bar pub. A genuinely magical experience. Both of the Dubliners' video versions of this song are extraordinarily moving. Thanks to the posters, and esp to Pete St. John for this little masterpiece.

I can't seem to choose which is better this one or the version that Ronnie Drew does but this is still beautiful.

Probably good to hear Jim McCann's voice for a change as there's lots of versions of Dubliners' songs with LK, or RD.

(I heard a late 80's version with Ronnie, which I listen to lots since He died -RIP)
