What sort of of souless jackeen dislikes anything Luke Kelly did??? This is the music of my childhood. Loved it then, love it now, will always love it...
i like the videos that show them all at their best like this john has brown hair, barny can stand, kieran is stil sweating like a pig, ronnie still has his awsome blue eyes and twangy voice and luke has his fro,beird and they are just perfect
Dances wit llamas that was for you btw try to sound intelligent with your big fuckin words. This is a classic luke kelly song! I personally can do without readind hard to discifer bullshit so do me and probably a few others. Shut the fuck up!!!!
I love that camera shot from the side that starts at 2:12, where they rack focus from Ciaran to Barney to Luke and eventually to John. Beautiful work, both by the lads and the camera operators.
Girls take a lesson from this song - always date young men while they still got their erection capabilities.
Sex was very important to the celtic peoples - much more so than the anglos across the pond. Where did celts come from? I have heard they originated in spain many tens of thousands of years ago. Which means they must have come from North Africa.
Which explains the curly part of Luke's hair. But where are all the red-blondes of Ireland per the Roman accounts?
Where are the remnants of the ancient picts, the ancient people of Ireland who were all red and blonde haired? What can account for the change in genetic make up, the phenotype? Red and blonde hair is a recessive gene - which indicates an excessive influx of dominant dark-haired genes from some outside source.
The original celts, from spain, originally came from Africa. Give or take 20,000 years to allow for skin and hair pigment to change and you've got your modern recognizable celts.
@DancesWithLlamas we all came from africa originally as i understand it. Made our way up to ireland and invaded by every local yocal, including the vikings. there is an excellent series on here the history of scotland.
The chorus is not meant to make sense. Irish songs often contain words that do not make sense, they are maybe used instead of offensive words or just because it sounds good or suits the song. An example would be in The Dubliners song: Rocky road to Dublin "whack fol lol dee daa"
look at the lady in red in front of him, she's really enjoying it ! lovely images of an irish world changing! i'll always adore you luke and ronnie and the rest of the DUBLINERS !
Is that vid from the turn up on swedish tv from the early 70s? Saw some vids by kellyoneill an dubliner85 on youtube that fearured these 5 guys in always the same dress..
I dont think thats entirely true neohip, many men would love to have curly hair as glorious as this. In fact I have known a few who have endured a perm to get a similar result!
If more women in Ireland 'threw the leg over him, just to oblige' the country would be in a better current state...haha!!! Dubliners are f*cking class...
Luke just looks like he is having such a fab time, it was maybe a bit risque for much of the audience....looking at the age of them. But nevertheless, a brilliant song and performance. The Dubliners were definitely the 'punk rockers' of the folk world.
so unfortunate that Luke's intro would be considered perverted in some way in this day in age.. it's the unfortunate reality of all the pc shit, innocence goes out the window.. but what a song!
Well I guess you are letting lies and social engneering get to you.Political Correctness is a hangover from Stalinist Russia that has,quite frankly out stayed its welcome.Thankfully,our "Day and Age" is only a temporary thing,like Hitlers Germany.
One day,things shall return to normal.
I do not find Lukes Intro perverted in the least,and indeed a good bit of advice,but because of human nature will never be heeded!.
Yes sorry,I lost the plot..I am an old fan of the Dubliners,who had never seen them in 'full flight' before. I was absoluletly blown away by this preformance,and was looking for reasons as to why "modern" musicians don't make them as good as this anymore.Also I guess I was expressing my disapointment of Generation Y.
Oh no! ...I think i'm turning into my own grandfather!.Oh sod that,but these guys are better than the Corrs!.
buy the dvd "luke kelly the performer", this is on it, youll cry and laugh your face off! im 31 so i missed the glory days, but i bought the dvd and havent seen it since my old man aquired it!
Mr Drew (God bless his soul) looks like he's a bit bored here. I can't understand how that would be possible, though. What an amazing performance by Kelly (God bless his soul as well)!
Hey Kelly, I was just wondering if there was a place that I could get all these amazing songs?? New to this site so not sure how it works but Luke Kelly is my favorite singer and would love to get a hold of some of these songs. Thanks again for posting these great songs!

Nope,not an Afro.He was from Dublin.
