[markwarren38]

what a song and what a legend

[bohsbill]

RIP phil Lynott 25 years dead today gone but will never be forgotten irelands greatest rock and roll artist ever.

[laurents45]

A shame for the gay ass image. The song has a good feeling. 

[degoedeherder]

weird ass intro, but GREAT song!!!!!

[Unayox]

Great song!

[DennChooch]

Was happy when I saw that this is in the Radio 2 Top 2000 in the Netherlands

[TomthatiscalledTom]

Disregard that bollocks about 'The old Convent garden...I remember only too well' at the start of the song. The song is about Dublin. Check the video

[Flynno82]

Who is the guy talking at the start..?

[forzamicha46]

Hola !!

[coldshaddow]

old time classic

[davedoug]

brings tears . thank you phil

[Eternalsummersong]

I have never heard this song before! I love it!! Thank you for posting this song! ^_^

[forzamicha46]

it's not the same Phily when you're not around :( R.I.P

® ☻

[muskrat477]

rip phil.....we've all been there!!

[KevinsTake]

Who would dislike this Genius??

Only Bieber Fans.......

[Doyle141]

:O I remember this song from when I was a little kid lol :D

Stil lsounds good

[newmark401]

"This boy is cracking up, this boy has broke down..." Was that a call for help from Phil?

[tera46]

@newmark401  YES !

[therutles2]

what a perfect song! miss philo :(

[Paganiny]

and the Original...

[bizzmarky76]

at least the Corrs picked a helluva good song to cover. they do take all the hurt out of it with Andrea's cute ass smiling all happy while singing it though

[FactualOrc]

this is approximately 14,698,234 google times better than The Corrs version

[bluesmanzzz]

The Corrs covered this one well!

I'm a big Thin Lizzy fan too.

[guthywoodry]

Beautiful song. Every word is so, so painfully true for anyone who's ever been in that situation.

But a proper Rock-Ballad re-recording is long overdue. This London 1980's studio pop sound does not do the great Phil Lynott justice.

[janzalaz]

Rip Phil, Absolutely great, Phil you never die in raising our hearts

[Keijz74]

RIP Phil!

[mfealy]

RIP Philo ...legends never die

[DRUMELODY]

The soundquality is super! Well done,sister :-)

[AICpantera]

phil lived 20 mins away from me

rip man

[chandler76]

My all time favorite song right now

[stocken11]

I was There? Sutton with his lovely mother .With Love..Forever ;) Jussi

[fatmatt1976]

i like that no one cares about this one, it keeps it special. the same people who bitch about the coors getting more views would probably not feel the same way they do about this one if every fuck on the streets was into sir phil lynott.

[Renevann]

great!!

[AssassinMuse91]

sweet

[gyroe182]

Romance has fucking broke down!!!

Brilliant song.

[eoinb57]

@gyroe182 Hahahahahahaha, that actually made me laug out loud!

[sbyrne1]

I agree that the Corrs were fine to record it. But the fact it has more views then the original, and that this is a far far superior version. Is a travesty. But meh their own damn loss.

[kax61]

let's go and kick their bottom....

[DeluxeReissue]

I don't really like the Corrs version at all - not my cup of tea, but I don't mind that they recorded it. I saw that they often introduce it live as being written by Phil, so it promotes Phil's music and it's good that other artists dig his stuff too.

Best cover to check out on Youtube is The Cure's version of Don't Belive a Word. Robert Smith is a huge Lizzy fan.

[eannametal]

He really caught the feeling - getting dumped has never sounded so good...

[ViolenceFetish69]

happy birthday phil, legend

[KOSMICKEN09]

this song is heartbreaking. i love it. happy 60th birthday phil....

[wackojacko104]

phil lynott...the only man who can pull off wearin a gold hoop and like lookin like a puff

[Ducksexbody]

hahahahaha

[086apollo440]

The Corrs had the cheek to try and cover this epic and came up with a shit version that your mother would love. R.I.P. Philo.

[MrSean677]

Isnt there a music video of him walkin around Dublin singin this?

[Juanporock]

que grande Phil!

[wackojacko104]

fuk u

ROULERS1 ye puff best song goin ill punch u round

[ROULERS1]

what a rubbish song!

[mamy06]

first time i hear this song...

The Corrs did realy nice cover to this song, Ola!

[SouthDownIPLO]

great singer great song

[VampireSock]

one of my faves. stupid youtube takin away thousands of vids. the real vid was only up here few months ago! aahh the do's wer ridiculous.

gwan phil!

[Rubyfax]

Whatever happened to the "Real Version" on youtube that went awol a few months ago?The original video with the bandstand in background and The Liffy etc?Criminal!

[zavorapipefish]

best song ever made

[samtrap99]

phil lynott is the only male that can pull off wearing a gold hoop ear ring

[2grapes]

I'm Irish and living in Brazil, and I just noticed he says Olá twice....

Olá being Portuguese for Hello.....and with his Father being Brazilian and all.....makes me interpret these lyrics differently.

Phil, Você é uma legenda.

[push7yourself]

where is it again in the music video that he does the trumpet solo

[TheMildred67]

Can't find it anywhere and God knows I tried. This was the best I could do.

[roaringopenfire]

Thanks for putting this up. It was up for ages but was removed. Brill song.

[psychonaut25]

I was looking for this ages!! I was not able to believe that this was covered by Corrs...Original is Better! Sweet

[FairlyGrrl]

They're both good. Corrs version is orchestrated by the same dude (Fiachra). He brings it a step further.

[drchelliebell]

seriously what is it about their music that just gets me every time? so honest, so real. no frills. why cant they still be here? nothing like them before or since. and there never will be. its just the innocence of their lyrics! we'll never have that again.

[jimllfaxit]

How come this tune is never on any of the thin lizzy greatest hits cd's?

[conorlu3]

coz it aint thin lizzy is it

its phil lynott

[SouthDownIPLO]

great song by a great irish singer

[renegadeexpress1983]

I just love this song.

[pieno0100]

nejlepši

[Kaprifolblomma]

MY FIRST LOVE! Would have married him in a second if only he would have asked... Too bad he died before I was old enough;-D

[kgmurray]

Yeah. Where the hell is the video. The one where they walk across the ha' penny bridge. Huh.

[pimgooss]

youtube was gay and removed it

[plopplop1983]

gone forever into the you tube vaults unfortunately...

terrible

[zugrook101]

ThinLizzyFanPage you da man/woman. A quality version on youtube again. not a video but hey thank you sincerley. From a dub to a dub whos broke down o la.

[keni1878]

Where the hells the video for this anybody?

[katoness]

Been looking for it as well. I bet its something to do with copyright and the record company. Greedy bastards that they are. Its the business of a video seeing him strolling around Dublin and Grafton Street.

[FairlyGrrl]

Yeah that's the one. Bastards took it down. How they think they're going to promote more sales if people don't hear of it? Beady eyed bean counting greedos suck.

[Klurty34]

The old covent Garden...I remember it only too well..

[kgmurray]

Favourite song of all reminds me of my girl.

[stuartsimm]

This man touched my life

[halfslothhalfman]

O la! need we say more?

RIP Phil xxx

[colmmullins]

Phil a champion of the ordinary irish man. youre music n memory will always live on and be adorned by the irish people. fairplay to thinlizzyfanpage. THIS SONG MEANS ALOT TO MANY IRISH PEOPLE. THE CHEEK OF WMG. THERE A SHOWER OF CORPORATE COCKSUCKERS.

THIS SONG MUST STAY UP FOR THE IRISH MAN. I DONT THINK PHIL WOULD WANT HIS MUSIC NOT TO BE HEARD MAY HE REST IN PEACE. SADLY MISSED BY SO MANY

[schuller51]

Thank,s for the memories Phil,.... you were probably to good to stick around .

[5wmh37]

this beautiful song sums up the wonderful, carefree spirit of Philip.

God Bless Phil x

[daemonomaniac]

Whoever removed the music video to this pearl from YouTube, has no heart.

[pimgooss]

agreed!

[5wmh37]

you are so right

this song is just beautiful

[daemonomaniac]

Thanks for the upload! This wonderful classic *needs* to be on YouTube, even if WMG will remove it again soon. I hope they remove the Corrs version instead the next time, the original simply cannot be beaten. Now if somebody reuploaded the original video...hint, hint...

[bnjbnjbnj]

Oh yes, please remove the Corrs version, but let Phil Lynott stay on YouTube!

[goater65]

Great tune

[rathkeale27]

what a legend. a hugh loss to rock and to ireland

[daemonomaniac]

Basically, a huge loss to the whole world, not just Ireland. R.I.P. Philo, you're sorely missed!
