  • I`ve listend to that song all up and down the YouTube list for the one version I like best. Found it here next to the one by Bob McGrath. Thank you! You have such a great voice it is a pleasure listening to it all over again and I`m certainly listening to it again on Saint Patrick`s Day.

  • my great grandmother loved this song, she sang it to me when i was little and even when i was a teenager, so i could try to sing it when i had my own children. she passed 3 years ago in february and i just now have a little one of my own on the way. i only ever heard Danny O'Donnel's version until i found this video. you have done amazingly and i wish she was here to sing this to my son but since she cant be im forever grateful that you have made this so he can hear it. thank you <3

  • Que bonito :)

  • Your voice is amazing, you do great when you sing this. I love it!

    Thank you

  • Oh damn, memories... I remember falling asleep to this as my grandmother sung it. Don't I miss my lovely childhood. I was singing it with you and got so teary! I miss Ireland.

  • We don't say top of the Morning to you

  • Good singer but cum here 2 me now love we font say top of the morning to you....it jus good morning kkz

  • Great performance. Thank you!

  • is basso?

  • my uncle sang this at my grandma's funeral. when i close my eyes i can see her again. beautiful, happy and healthy. thank you so much

  • @Edward0Robert God Bless

  • One word - goosebumps. You sang that brilliantly. Beautiful song. Well done...feckin phenomenal!

  • I love this stuff! The songs had meaning back then, had a message, not all this "shake that a**" junk. Heil Hitler, may the West rise again!

  • dam your good, u should record that, u sound just like bing

  • I am not one to share a comment, but I did want to share on this song. It is kind of strange (my comment,) but this man can sing and he seems so gentle. I never had a dad to sing to me, as mine died when I was four years old, but this man's gentle voice makes me think of how my dad's voice would sound if he was alive. My great-grandfather was an Irish-man, and I like to think that he taught my dad this lullaby during their time together. My story may be corny to some, but I thank who sang this.

  • I heard it on an episode on Cheers.

  • i had mu grandmother sing this to me to sleep when i was little thanks a millon ::)

  • BRAVISSIMO!!!! CHE VOCE MERAVIGLIOSA E CHE STILE! COMPLIMENTI DALL'ITALIA E VIVA L'IRLANDA, PAESE FRATELLO!!!

  • Esta cancion la canta Barney en los simpsom:)

  • @juaandii1 Lisa también lo hace demasiado

  • me da tanta dulzura escuchar esta cancion ^^

  • My Mother used to sing this to me every night before falling off to sleep when I was a child. You sing this very well. You have a lovely tenor voice.I in turn did sing this to my own little Daughters when they were smal...it's wonderful to have songs to hand down as well as trditions

  • Oh, I just love this!... four years later on St Patrick's day. You must do Danny Boy!

  • Nicely done. Pure and simple.

  • oh my god!!!! is the Barney Gumble's song!!!!! xDDDDD

  • Álainn. :)

  • You do realise Irish people don't actually say "top of de mornin to ya"? *sighs*

  • My mom used to sing this to me to get me to sleep when I was little :) so Thank You!

  • *lovely ;)

  • Absolutely wonderful. I tried to think of more words, but there are none, except perhaps brilliant and lively

  • you gave me goosebumps sir. that is a sure good sign. may the sons of your daughters smile up into your face =)

  • Sir your performance very much reminds me of Joe Feeney's from the Lawrence Welk show. I must say that your voice, pitch, and tone are outstanding. I hope someday I can sing this to my children and give them the warm feeling to fall asleep that you just gave to me. Thank you and good night :)

  • you go guy! this guy has inspired me to try this u-tube thing. what a pleasant voice. he rocks

  • I sometimes listen to this to fall asleep lol

    My grandmom always sung me thing when I was little -3

  • Its so true that music is a universal language. I'm as far from Irish as you can get (a completely American black man) and I have to admit just listening to this wonderful song performed so (in my mind) perfectly almost mad me shed a tear. Thanks for the upload.

  • Just beautiful. Oh, how I wish to possess a voice like that. On another note, I'd like to mention that your incredible rendition of this classic helped me cope with the loss of a dear friend. Thank you, sir, for your talent has brought joy to my world, as I hope it has to many others.

  • You have such a beautiful voice! This really hit home. :) In a good way!

  • Me encanta esta canción^^ saludos desde Galicia amigos irlandeses^^

  • Wow you did amazing nearly brought me to tears I could listen to you sing for hours what a lovely way to bed my night. Off to be I go!

  • I loved to hear you sing this. You were as good as Bing and I would say that he is the best of the best.

  • Such a great job. I think I remember Joe Feeney singing this on the Welk show when I was young. Your rendition was great and brought back warm memories. thanks for sharing your talent.

  • My mom sang this to me for two hours straight once when I was sick. Thank you so much for posting it.

  • @Ennaxor12345 You are so welcome!

  • thank you,thank you! iused to sng this to mychildren then grandkids. it's been several years, but now have new grandson and age prevented me from remembering all the words. Other s never came close to Bing, I think he'd smile on yours.

  • @gemini1885 Thankyou for your MOST KIND comment. I'm humbled and glad you were blessed.

  • I remember my Father, Grandmother, and Great-Grandmother singing this to me as a child. To this day it is the only song that I truly cherish. Thank you so much for posting this song, and doing it with such wonderful pitch and timing.

  • Wow. Just wow.

  • you should be a superstar

  • I just happened upon this video. I hate to admit it, but I'm not familiar with this singer. He is a very talented singer. Very warm delivery with a clear, strong voice, yet sensitively and reverantly delivered. Great timing and doesn't rush the song. Great vibrato. As a fellow crooner, I'm very impressed!

  • Thank you so much. It was just awesome.

  • Heard this in Oz :P

  • Barney forever, Wiggum never!

  • That was Amazing one of the best versions of the song I have EVER heard, you touched my heart.

  • -Who is that?

    -BUUUUUUUUUURP

    -BARNEY!!!!

  • Thank you. Just thank you, sir. My Nona (mammy's mum from Country Cork) used to sing this to the six of us grandkids to help us calm down. You bring back some great memories, sir. So again, I thank you for posting this.

  • Wonderful, rich and natural voice--thanks for gracing us with it!

  • Wowza. You have a fantastic voice. That was amazing :)

  • Finally, an amateur that does this song some justice. The rest of the versions of this were just slaughtered.

    Well done. Me wee Irish lass sits on my lap listening raptly. The rest made her cry.

  • @moparmonster1965 Thank you so much!

  • Credit where credit is due, kind sir. You have a great voice.

  • when I was a kid my mom would sing this to me. and it would make me cry lol.

  • once againe you have touched my hart with your singing with this and all of those chrismas songs you have deeply moved me thank you man don't stop man keep going

  • 0-0

  • wow my grammy sings this to me when im at her house at night and this makes me sad listening to it. you sing amazing.

  • Personally, I think you performed this song better than Bing did.

  • thank you :)

  • You sing beautifully

  • I was going to listen to another song as this was about half way through but I couldn't pull myself away :) BEAUTIFUL!!

  • Bing would be proud

  • My mom used to sing this song to all of her babies (8 of us!). It was sweet to hear you sing it!

  • nice voice

  • Wow.  You did a great job.

  • My family and I had my grandfather's funeral this morning and sang this outside the church after the service...this was his favorite Irish song (he was VERY proud of his Irish heritage) and this is a tremendous version....brings a tear to my eye everytime I hear it.

  • Oh god I remember this song! :D And you have a great voice!

    ...I'm crying. :'D

  • lovely version - love it

  • A great voice and a great song. Looking forward to celebrate St. Patrick's day, although I am Italian and live in Germany. It's about respect and solidarity and we all know that Irish people are nice and friendly and Ireland itself is one of the most beautiful countries in the world. You did a great job, singing this song and sending out best wishes to the other people celebrating St. Patrick's day. I hope all of you enjoy it in 2010 as well.

    The main chorus of the song is toora loora and it sounds so awesome

  • Wonderful! You would have had my Irish Nana and my mother crying had they heard this.

  • Thank you so much!

    My mother used to sing this to me when I was little (although I only she only ever sang the refrain), and her mother sang it to her as a child. I'll definitely sing it to my children one day, God willing. [That I have children - not that I'll be able to sing! I'm a singer. :)]

    This is the best version on youtube, definitely! And although my dad never sang this song to me, your voice is very similar to him. Beautiful!

  • Got to say I was really surprised, what a great tone and very heartfelt. Excellent!

  • That has got to be the best version ive heard to this day. your voice is amazing.

  • Almost as good as my Dad sang to me. But then, I was born on St. Patrick's Day and love this song the most. Love My Wild Irish Rose too. All of them are great!

  • Fantastic. I could listen to it all day.

  • Wow, you are just amazing. I'm so loving you right now.

  • Fantastic!

  • this is the best quality rendition... really great, all the other ones are poor quality and poorly sung, way to keep it simple thank you, i think i'll go to bed now.

  • This has to be the best rendition of the song I've heard so far.

    :]

    I keep commenting. xD

    Sorryyy. :]

  • It's ok! Thank you!

  • my dad used to sing this to me when I was little, whnever my mom wasn't home.

  • Oh my gosh! This was beautiful!

  • Not sure if my first comment was posted. I said your presentation of this song is marvelous. You have a beautiful voice. It makes me cry because it makes me think of the one I have missed most of my adult life-some 27 years. I had such a great love that it it sustains me to this day.
