Horslips - Dearg Doom

[loatherd]

Saw them live in Dublin [Dun laoghaire] in 73 , i was 15 and thought they were top flight. The venue was a place called the pavillion now demolished . Ah them memories .

[laurarussell365]

sound tune!

[TrickyBeargle]

Dat riff

[gottogottweisswer]

saw them near mount melleray in 1977, when i was 15, with lots of boy scouts, who were mistreated from elder ones and always must wear short trousers in the cold and moisty irish evenings. i am not irish and not catholic, so this was a somewhat strange feeling there.

i didn´t like this kind of music, because it was too much straight rock and not enough folk for me in these times. but i was stoned abot this song. and so it is today.

[joruneah]

dearg Doom = Cuchulainn, Ulster's champion

[Chardor]

@joruneah

yeah im convinced thats pretty much what he is supposed to be.

or a mishmash of various celtic hero figures that are a tad crazy.

[HarryPotterFan968]

sorry dearg is red in irish

[DubDubh]

@HarryPotterFan968 Well 'Doom' isn't an Irish word. Devil is 'fear dubhf or fdibheal' (there's probably a few other words for it as well)

[amenatsuhasujinseii]

@DubDubh : dearg doom..or dum (with a fada) means red destroyer..well..thats what my irish teacher said!

[hadders81]

@amenatsuhasujinseii Thats what Eamon Carr said too!

[HarryPotterFan968]

does dearg doom mean the red devil because dearg is devil in irish so...

[Kondzio717]

Its kinda pathetic, how U2 can be called best Irish band... Ireland is a homeland for such great artist like Horslips, Thin Lizzy or (especially) Rory Gallagher. U2 are nowhere compared to these...

[Kingsize2222]

@Kondzio717 I agree full heartily

[x3yapzv]

fucking awesome!!

[audiodead]

Horseshit.

[kinkybeatle]

[zxcvbnm600]

why do people keep saying "I prefer the original" THIS IS THE ORIGINAL, horslips wrote the song!

[TIMR007ROX]

@zxcvbnm600 no its not, the tune is Marcshlua Ui Neill by Sean O'Riada

[zxcvbnm600]

@TIMR007ROX really oh right, thanks see I always thought that horslips wrote it, cheers for setting me straight :)

[pan42]

nonsense lyrics but a mighty mighty riff....played footie with Carr's cousin..my claim ta fame :)

[gypshasballs22]

[mufcstokesy]

@gypshasballs22 why would you wonder that? the IRA r people too and have ears! y wouldnt they?

[gypshasballs22]

@mufcstokesy IDK i was just being stupid

[mufcstokesy]

@gypshasballs22 sorry just thought u were thick or something!

[usf8]

Found about this through Slough Feg.... being a SF fanboy, I prefer that one, but awesome song nonetheless!

[LOLLIEBOY444]

I like the original better, but this is still a great song!

[CaptainHousty]

It's called olé olé or put them under pressure.

[thaIrishLad]

lol emm u do know in the under pressure song they used this song from the horslips lol ?

[BoxingMadLad]

@ungelbertpendo do you have a link to the original?

[notahemi]

@ungelbertpendo

Isn’t this the “original”? Sounds like it to me.

(I’m in Atlanta, and it finally dawned on me why jigs, if you will pardon the pun/slur, find it so “insulting” to start on someone mother. They don’t know who their father is.

Father’s Day: The definition of mass confusion here. Hence the taunt. “Who’s your daddy”.)

[19SeanMurphy79]

"Put em under pressure" oh ah

[AIDSOOOO]

ole ole ole

[chamz06]
