my cousin did a rock n roll version of the Fields of Athenry at his wedding in Ireland... it lifted the roof, it did... totally set the bar for Irish weddings. I so want to have an Irish wedding... they go on til dawn!
I remember hearing this kind of music when I was a child, because there's a pretty large irish presence in australian history and it comes down through the folk singing. You don't really hear it anymore, (or at least I haven't since then) but it's really beautiful. The whole lilt and storytelling. You'd hear snatchs of it in australian folk music.
What a beautiful song, the last one! It is just marvelous, and he is one glorious singer too! I love this film so much. And I love Janeane, what a cute little thing and what a brilliant actress! :o)
the visions that boy's voice conjures up... i close my eyes and i'm curled up in a huge armchair with a sheepskin draped over me.. he's sitting on a wooden stool beside a crackling fire, the flames dancing over his guitar as he sings........
oh my, i think i need to be alone for a moment.... *lolol*
Definitely in my top 10! How this film didn't made more money I'll never know...I only ended up watching this the first time because there was nothing else better on TV and found I couldn't stop watching!!!
@tohama19 I'm pretty sure. I was in Cork a few years ago. The people were so nice. When my boyfriend asked for direction an old man walked us to where we were going... It was two miles away!!
@kterbo yah, that's often how they give directions in Ireland: lead you there! Once someone drove in front of us 2 the place, it so happened that he worked @ the place we were trying 2 find. Near Dublin I was waiting @ a bus stop & a lady pulling out of her driveway on the other side of the street asked if I was headed into town & offered me a lift. If they don't lead you there, they'll leave u with directions and a chuckle: 'Oh, you can't get there from here!' or 'I wouldn't start from here!'
I love knowing my family live around here (people call it a backward lifestyle) but i fucking love em this guy reminds me of good times god i need a holiday, hahaha "Cappuccino" on the aran islands love it
LMFAO..gotta love the irish...god their hilarious...my favourite scene this hahahahaha...that and the singing in the pub...seriously LOVE LOVE THIS MOVIE. AND SERIOUSLY SERIOUSLY LOVE IRELAND.
Remarkable statement at (albeit hard to swallow the first moment that I heard it)3:33-:50 (I've listen and listened again ...brilliantly spotlighted in its simplicity)
"...sometimes it is not only easier to walk away from something its also the right thing to do"
"...sometimes the easiest way out IS the right way out"
Ireland is indeed a magical land; when away I'm under a gut-wrenching wish to come back; when I'm there, it's like being locked in a cold castle overlooking the world, and I feel restless!
@emmypoppet88 did you ever manage to find out the name of the song? I see it's been 2 years since you asked! this is my first time coming across this movie on youtube so I'm sorry I did not come across your question earlier...just in case you're still curious, it's a song about 'The Mad Puck Goat', in Gaelic: An Poc Ar Buile...just search for mad puck goat here on Youtube and you'll find a rendition by the Chieftains singing it and the lyrics are given in English. There's a Puck fair in Ireland
He gets my vote! Love the Irish folk!
