Thin Lizzy - Whiskey In The Jar

[gravettian]

I'll never go enywhere without my pistol and my rapier

[tcdarden13]

GOD FUCKING DAMMIT!!! would you people PLEASE stop bickering over petty details and just praise what you enjoy--and FUCK all the rest. Metallica is phenomenal. So is Thin Lizzy. Anyone who disagrees should just go start a fucking pity blog... boo hoo... I am glad I aint YOU!

}:-{(>

[Theawesomegitardude]

@tcdarden13 So facking true, if they don´t wanna hear the music, or criticize the music, then DON´T DO IT ON YOUTUBE!

[dizzygunner]

dont come on a video to troll another band idiots

[TheMichaelseymour]

Eric bell is twice the player kirk hammet is .

[nightskies4u]

Thanks for some real ' Rock" in' Rollin'.

[jimbosail100]

firstime ive heard their version. it rocks. this is just a great irish tune ive heard done by 20 diff. bands and i love it.

[GrimTrippen]

Why bash what ever band you think didn't do it best? Just enjoy the music..

[MrVatolocosiempre]

esse vocalista tinha sangue brasileiro

[SampixPT]

@MrVatolocosiempre isso foi desmentido pela mãe dele!

[MrVatolocosiempre]

@SampixPT é que a mãe dele não sabe que a guiana inglesa não deixa de ser brasileira porque é um território que foi roubado de nós.é igual a portugal que não deixa de ser um pedaço mais pobre da espanha,no fundo todo português é filho bastardo da espanha,todo portuga tem o sangue mouro espanhol nas veias hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahaha

[arquimaga]

I think the next course they have more talent, but we can not belittle the talent of Metallica, who made​an impressive cover of this song, it is not surprising that when we play it shows the public is going to delirium, and finally the two bands are impeccable, thin lizzy and metallica ♥

[yonasknepper]

this isn't the original version, its a irish song

[garthblud]

@yonasknepper They were irish lol

[jasontramel]

This is better, hard to beat the original. Can't understand what James Hetfield is sayin on Metallica version.

[menace391]

@jasontramel Ironic you say that, because this is an Irish Folk Song...

[MrBranflakeification]

He looks like an ANUS

[anprman]

Going to see the Reformed Thin Lizzy at Leicester on Wednesday - can't wait

[Pepperss91]

Lynott has a better vocal than Hetfield from Metallica.

Fan from Poland :)

[xXxlarlosxXx]

I just loves me a daily douse of Thin Lizzy in the morning

[evillutionskate]

Damn you people are fucking stupid.

Metallica is Thrash Metal.

Thin Lizzy is Hard Rock.

Each of them have their quirks

Personally I think the Metallica version is a little bit better, but then again I'm a metalhead. This is still great music.

[zebidee44]

@evillutionskate Why are you saying people are fucking stupid? If you think the Metallica version is better we don't say you are fucking stupid, people are entitled to an opinion just as much as you.......

[UsAndThem94]

Bassist looks like D.D. Dunn

[bubbatvbitch]

james is irish

[bubbatvbitch]

whos mettalica!

[haicugolu]

my god...so many bands covered theyr songs... thin lizzy is a legend

[ZaRoeler]

@haicugolu That's true, however I like Snowy's style more, I think he made a excellent solo work with bird of paradise. I do however have to remark that this is also a cover of the original made by The Dubliners. And ofcourse, for a metalband, metallice made a good cover. You can't say the two versions like emotion and musical integrity.

[Mirka1964]

Great :-)

[PrivateWilsonhimself]

ya these guys have more talent on their ball pubes than metalica will ever have in their dreams.

[alexstone63]

Of course this version of this old Irish classic is better than Mettalica’s version, Phillip was Irish!

[nandofrm]

música do caralho!!!

[xenocide8]

Alright I just want to say right now, stop arguing about who's version is better, whether it be metallica's or thin lizzy's there's a reason why metallica covered this song. Because It's a great song and they knew that Thin Lizzy was awesome, now personally I think the metallica version is better but I'm more of a metal head so it makes sense. But whether you like this one or metallica you gotta respect me and I respect you no matter what kind you like, Now shut the fuck up and let me hear this

[xenocide8]

I still like metllica's version better but This song is amazing

[69pritch]

this is the original you bunch of inbreads!!



[gram2358]

Saw Thin Lizzy at reading 76, friggin awesome! RIP phil.

[ryansjem]

in my opinion metallica butchered this amazing song!

[yofo032345]

aahh se olle muy hippie prefiero la version de metallica :D

[AntoP049]

i prefer metallicas version!!

[B1N4RYGH0ST]

RIP Phil

[paulj0557]

Check out the little dancing babes! I love this band. I've got a few of their 8-tracks. I'd like to get some more & post, I have a Qtron Stereo/48 8-Track Changer that plays 12 tapes continuously one after the next. They are set in a circular carousel tray that you place on the player then you can select 1 track to play from each tape until it goes around 4 times completing 4 tracks from all 12 tapes. Or play 1 tape complete then the next. There is also a dial with 1-12 to dial any tape to play.

[colosalblack]

You can tell metallica's cover is much more influenced by this version than the original folk song. I like all versions of this amazing song.

[GABRY7240]

@Sk8tinPools420 But the original version isn' t by the Dubliners?? (Sorry if there are many error but I don' t speak english)

[GHeroandRScape]

lol gay how evry1 is downing metallica here

[eduardolphin]

@GHeroandRScape . i think both versions are good in their own way. of course the original is better, because the creator can be thwe only one that performs the song in its pure sound, although Metallica's version has its own Metallica taste, with heavier guitars and drums. no disrespect to Thin Lizzy, because they were great!!!!

Good day. and keep rocking.!!!!!

[MrThrasha666]

Metallicas is good too but I dont know why its totally replaced this one on the radio!

[PumpingSmashkins]

metallica wishes it had the soul

[stubbornalex]

metallica does it better

[TouchMeTV1]

Both Metallica and Thin Lizzy are awesome.. I dont know why people say shit about metallica they just did a different thing with this song, tying to keep it alive

[LambertTheShpshLion]

@TouchMeTV1 Uh cause its there...Don't know about you but not too many brain cells are used to make thoughtless comments...and most are just posted without a thought. Cause Lars can eat a dick...Metallica version metal awesomeness ...Thin Lizzy...well they were awesome.

[frietdewiet]

i hate covers doesnt mather from what song if a nummer is good they got to stay of it !!! (metallica cover ) sucks

[Jimmy666Vengeance]

@frietdewiet lol though i agree that the thin lizzy version is 1 million times better than any other you do know that this song pre dates thin lizzy right? so this is a cover also lol

[cashmanking]

@frietdewiet you are an idiot.

[frietdewiet]

metallica the gods of metal lol if u think that u are a idiot , if i was u u should listen more reel metal then !!!

[pathdaly]

This is just a great clip, no need to slag any other version, especially when its intended as a tribute. I like some of what Metallica do, I dont think they improved on this version though.

[Drumattatat]

Metallica sounds like crap doing this song.

"The Gods of Metal"

what the hell are you smoking Bubblegum?

[Metalfanseries]

This version is better than metallicas version

[bubblegum0912]

no its not! lol

[bonzie88]

@Metalfanseries

MILLION TIMES BETTER.

[XFXMikeXFX]

@Metalfanseries true

[LixiPixi1]

@Metalfanseries absolutely

[Soilpt]

@Metalfanseries haters gonna hate

[Jukkax26]

@Soilpt yea,that´s true,you know,I like both metallica and thin lizzy.people should respect other good bands

[xikotuita]

@Metalfanseries, That's true !

[LixiPixi1]

@Metalfanseries definitely!!!

[junglejim007]

You guys are readin' too much into the Metallica version. Lars was a Thin Lizzy fanatic and wanted to show some respect, so they recorded their version. It wasn't meant to be better or anything just their version.

[crabbboy123]

i agree much better than metalicas epic attempt

[MAWPARKER]

oh yes back in the day

[pmac132]

great

[Seppells]

You can't compare Thin Lizzy and Metallica... Those bands are completely different.

[1xXLedZeppelinXx1]

Soo much better than Metallica's version, Byfar.

[wtranter]

WELL FUCKIN SAID MATE

[natchue]

what a bunch of crap ! Metalica is a million times better with there version !

[AvantGarde559]

stupid! these guys are far more talented than mettalica..

[SteezyLandinnn]

i dont know, this is a hole other style of music ;)

i like both =]

[bubblegum0912]

dude, metal and rock are like soo much diffrent, you can't compare the two types of music. Metalica are the gods of metal and thin lizzy are a good rock band. they are two diffrent versions, i personally like metallica's version because the they are my faverout band, this version is a bit to soft for me.

[XFXMikeXFX]

@AvantGarde559 not true

[colby7538]

@AvantGarde559 metallica can play there instruments better but compare 2 different genres thats just stupid seriously

[garethella]

@AvantGarde559 ,totally.

[Daan7000]

@AvantGarde559 That's bullshit I like this version better than metallica's but I'm a metallica fan and not a Thin Lizzy fan and Metallica is NOT untalented

James can wright fucking amazing riffs

Cliff burton did something with the bass nobody could ever do before him etc.

[minimorbid]

sweet fuckin fro!!!! i love thin lizzy grew up with it..

[200Hikari]

esse video é muitu doidu meu irmão

[tractorlad1]

saw gary moore he was rubbish all he did all night was tell fans to fuck off

[catbird007]

I actually spoke with gary moore on more than one occasion and the funny thing is that time he was swearing Gary wasn't talking to all the fans ....just you

[tractorlad1]

your just a cunt i dont like gary moore but i know he hates you fucking yanks and you wars more than i do . so go fuck your sen you lying twat . yanky boy

[catbird007]

Don't get upset sweet boy just because your country is a fourth rate power that has seen it's better days....lol I'm not a Yank I'm from Argentina, you know the country that sank the sheffield off the falkland islands' and made Britain a laughing stock all over again....have a nice day limey

[tractorlad1]

well if your not a yank that is ok . and yes you made us look right cunts . seriously though a massive amount of english people dont agree with us being in the falklands, the falkland islanders dont want anything to do with the english, they only want our money and our protection. so on that i agree with you . but gary moore is still rubbish .

[tractorlad1]

i will call them the right name just for you . Malvinas Islands

[catbird007]

That's just the thing I was getting at sweet boy . You Euro-types still have this srewry mind set that the rest of the world some how or another values the opinion and concerns of that dying region of the world known as " Western Europe".. We don't need you, your empires are long since gone never to return, maybe the whole of Europe can serve as a piece of living history a relic from a by gone era....like the Queen and prince Charles...lol

[tractorlad1]

i dont like royality but we dont get a vote on it .

[n00bLYFE]

where is this english debate coming from thin lizzy is an irish band i realize phil was born over there but later came to ireland so wtf...also this is good music whats with the fighting just enjoy for fuck sakes

[bordelon1111]

[Bylli13]

[sabeeenasuperpowers]

[killiekentman]

it was number 6 in the uk charts in february 1973, but released in Ireland in late 1972.  check out wikipedia.

[bordelon1111]

Tks Casey Casome

[dropscones]

the metallica version is just shit... i think metallica were a great band back in the days of master of puppets and ride the lightening. but they destroy this song

[j9o9h9n9n9y9]

You know, it's sad that so many comments under this great song even include comments about that "other" version. This is a classic and now the fact that we (myself included) can even refer to a cover by Gaytallica is a shame.

There should be no doubt this is the classic. Anyone with ears on their heads can tell that.

[angrydwarfofdoom]

I'd actually say that the Dubliners' version is the classic, but this is an excellent take.

This is likely the classic if we consider it to be the first 'rock' version of the song.

[OrchidiaMusic]

I never really cared for this version. It just feels unfinished...almost like a demo version.

I prefer Metallica's version. I still love Thin Lizzy though.

[Tseosilca]

metallica suck dick -_-

[j9o9h9n9n9y9]

Yep, and it sounds like Hetfield still has leftovers of it in his mouth when he "sings". Still, I'm sure he'll come out of the closet some day and then at least there'll be a bit of honesty to him.

[bubblegum0912]

you suck donkey dick!

[HARDOS73]

dubliners is better , altho itrs class

[Backyardrastlexx]

I love Metallica, and metal music, but this the ORIGINAL is better than metallicas

[bucky2300]

Actually, this was made popular by the Dubliners, had been played by numerous folk artists before that, and some date it back to the 1700s...

[Backyardrastlexx]

Oh I didn't know that, I though this was the original, thanks

[penstreep]

ok, u guys may a madde a critical mistake, but im sure we can all think the same of this: the dubliners version is totally rubish

[jonnzothegreat]

What a tosser you are penstreep

[simonconroy08061]

your a filthy metal head

get a job

[j9o9h9n9n9y9]

This is the song as it should be done, not like when it's queered up by shitallica.

[Tseosilca]

you have no idea how much i love you for saying that :P

[jimiller7]

My 1st concert was Thin Lizzy in Offenbach Germany 1981 . They were on their Renegade tour !  Kick Ass !!! PEACE JIM

[deedeedee520]

i like the metallica version. but thats just because there my favorite band. this version is kick ass too.

[jammybizzle666]

what are you, 12?

get out of here.

[collihill]

original is superb and metallica,s is excellent. love both them

[preacain]

Phil old pal you were a warrior poet king of Gaelic Ireland

[Parker7532]

why was i given a negative thingy? yall are stupid

[IrishFuzzySpartan]

lol, 'yall' ........

[Parker7532]

its oringaly an irish song one of my fav and im 17 metallica ruined that shit.

[bordelon1111]

lol, im glad someone agrees with me!

[boilman6538]

Me too, I think the metallica version is shit.

[tupapasito2103]

no metallicas version was so DAMN GOOD BETTER THAN OTHER COVER

[wiggarigga]

this kid the other day was like, "thats so dumb why would they copy metallica?" stupid kids these days

[Surisis1983]

much more pain in this version. kind of makes it a very sad song but a very good one too.

[wangchong000]

i like both versions but i kinda like metallica's a bit more...but both are really good

[laquerhead14696]

I agree, they're both different obviously but i like them both, but seeing as I prefer heavier music I'd lean towards Metallicas version. That isn't to say I don't like this one, I actually like it.  It's just a matter of preference

[rickiolmos]

nothing can beat the classic rock and this song prove it.

[civitbang]

everyones entitled to their opinion an mines that this is the best version

[PunkRocka25]

This song is good but in my opinion Metallica's is better because its hard rock but this isn't bad either...(if you give me a thumbs down for voicing my opinion your thickheaded and only want to hear what you want)

[Alkali64]

I'm not gonna give you a thumbs down, but your still wrong...

[PunkRocka25]

thanks obviously 4 or more people are thickheaded a thumbs down is for rude and arrogant comments

[lukinigga]

Great song, in my opinion the one's better than oter one by Mettalica

[LOMANDYO]

It's so sad to here bods dissin this song,it makes me think back to hitler and his mob,what is not yours is to be burned. Think on knobheads

[1cosmicboy]

spot on ,top bloke

[WILLIEMOJORISIN]

PHIL R.I.P

[hickeyboy08]

crumlins finest

[mkultra138]

Fuckin' Phil Lynott was the man! This was the first version I heard of the song around the time I was 14 or 15. When I heard Metallica were covering I was psyched to say the least. Both versions of this timeless irish folk song are beyond awesome!

[Drumattatat]

Metallica Awsome ?

Lars Ego is awsome but besides that nothing about metalicka is awsome.

[ngc248]

I had never listened to Thin lizzy's version b4, but now that I have listened to it, I like it very much... Both this and metallica's cover are good in their own ways

[2329250]

mr 24557pappa go fuck yourself metallica is a load of tossers and ok they are from the states that is as bad as coming from london

[drakko15]

who cares! its a awesome song

[thepaddywagonishere]

This an old version of an Irish Folk song. Rock has roots in American country music, But American country has its roots in English and Irish Folk music.

[ilikeunitedvrymuch]

irish built a third of london polish built the rest in three days

[VictorSeedorsky]

wow.. hahaha very funny.. - You really have sentences like this in major language..?? - lol.. in our language it's sound funny to.. and for as..;p

[treloar123]

a lot of rock has roots in blues

bands like the kinks ac/dc stones etc are blues based bands

[kingandcuntry]

phil's the man

[dumas757]

i prefer this version

[2329250]

yes, its getting worse in the uk, brown our prime minister wasn't elected by anybody, prestons of potto a yorkshire haulage company with 250 trucks has just gone banraup today, owing to the fuel prices. that is the fourth haulage company in 6 weeks to go and over a 1000 trucks are off the road due to the fuel prices.

[kivancdogan]

It's getting worse in all the world. the "make love not war" times are over. Everything is about profit now.

[ninelivecat]

Did you say Preston No relation to JP Two Jags LOL

[Tommyfazz]

Reminds me of when I was 17.....such a unique sound....even my DAD (rip) loved this song...

[reddirtgirl55]

Lets have a guinness and be friends.

[paperthrower1018]

god damn I LOVE this band

[2329250]

i saw thin lizzy in bradford englan about 1979 . who the hell is metallica some tossers from london or down south somewhere a load of tossers i bet . by the way diesel is now £6.40 a gall that is about $13 us thanks to brown the clown

[sguitar1442]

Metallica is a great and revolutionary band from the USA that pretty much started Thrash metal. They aren't tossers, they are great musicans who covered this song in honor of Thin Lizzy. And that sucks about gas prices.

[ninelivecat]

This song is much older than Thin Lizzy It dates back a long time maybe 200 years

[sguitar1442]

i know. but Thin lizzy did a rock version of it and 'Tallica wanted to cover thier version but heavier.

[ilikeunitedvrymuch]

try 1916 subscribtion for anyone who know what this songs about

[24557pappa]

one metallica r from the states get it writ if your gonna rip people

[walterrz]

what a Amazing Song...Hails to THIN LIZZY!!!!

[gennyd12]

Lizzy has way better vocals by far. Love this version, I could not stop hearing his mellow tone. In spite of the faults of the technology at the time, they had all the talent and skill to sound better than manny bands of our day. I think I'll hear it again!

[heavymetalkicksass]

booger, in my opinion, tone was way better 30-40 years ago, now it's destroyed by TOO much distortion. you don't get a natural enough sound in my opinion

[boogerbus]

personally i like the metallica version better but you have to realize that back then guitar technology wasnt as good they werent able to get the tone metallica has
