Some interesting movements in this one Ciaran. I wasn't expecting that G-F#-F-E progression but it makes sense, especially the G. I'd really like to hear some low harmonies on that part and the C-B part. In fact, I think you might even consider dropping the lead down lower on the "will it come back", like you are talking to the listener.
Also, how about changing the first line of the chorus to "here it comes", so you've got it coming and then going.
Great song! I have an original of my own that is very similar to this, at least with the chord shapes and the open top strings. It is watch?v=DNf5SpaJAa0 if you want to have a listen.
Hey, Ciaran, well, better late than never, I guess, hehe. :)
Your performances are always awesome! And these lyrics are really powerful. America's going through very tough times right now too, although probably easier than Ireland's having right now. Our politicians ruin it for everyone.
I'm back on Youtube now, so I thought I'd drop in. A big thumbs up to you on this one! :) Janet
THE VERSE GRABS YOU TIGHTLY AND THE 2 PART CHORUS SENDS YOU FLYING. A MEMORABLE COMPOSITION. VOCALS ARE MOVING. JUST A GREAT MOVING MELODY, LIKE FROM GOD. BRAVO, BRAVO!!!!!!
Very meaningful song that applies to all people on the globe. It's positive side - all of us coming together - gives hope. Thank you so much for such a thought provoking song, Linda
really stunning voice and guitar..your anger is so well understandable,unfortunately it's an universal anger excepts for those are "legally"richer now,every government is entangled with the banks,and is a thief,that is discovered or not....Sincerely wish you a peaceful and full of hope 2011,only what falls can rise again!!
I noticed your new guitar right away, Ciarán - smaller but pretty cool looking and sounding. I liked your song a lot. Your lyrics are right on. "yeah whats left for us". Oh, nice shirt, too :-)
i totally agree with yo man. pisses me off immensely i'm sick of all this shit like. and i don't enjoy knowing a lot about it from researching, it's all ridiculous
Really great song my friend! (and Family) I added your song to the World United Music Blog. You should make a good recording of this song and I will play it on The Minstral Show.
Excellently put ..what a shame the Irish people have been screwed by their terrible, corrupt and shameless money grubbing politicians. Where is true love of nation, of people and self? Sing my friend ,sing of your nations pain and remind those bankers of their utter moral and spiritual bankruptcy.
C great to see you have posted., I agree that the big bods have made this mess,,,,and yet again we have to pay the price....!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I understand why your mad.....
...really love this original ..love the chord changes...and your voice sounds amazing and your new geeeeetar is awesome...bet that was a few quid lol.........thank you for sharing my friend..;0)
Superman, oh I mean Ciaran :-))) Well despite the unfortunate reason you have to write this song, it is a really nice tune..... I hope things turn around for yall.... great job Ciaran....
I remember living in Newfoundland years ago when the economy was booming in Ireland and there were actually recruiters coming over from Ireland looking for workers. There was lots of talk about the "irish model" of developing the NL economy. Shame on big business, banks and gov..poor managment leaves the working men and women holding the bag (and now it's empty!) Excellent song Ciaran that a lot of people can relate to!
Excellent song Ciarán ... well done! You were wrong about the bankers thought. When those fuckers steal they get government protection and a cash bonus.
Epic. Great song. The first line are a great entrance into excellent lyrics. I have irish neighbors and besides the weather this is pretty much what they reflect on their young people. They´ve retired themselves... Excellent song. And head up. Cheers André ☺
This was a damn fine performance Ciaran....the lyrics were perfect....poignant and disgraceful all at the same time. One of your best my friend...I loved the melody..when you were away from the verses I could feel myself drumming as you re-entered the verse again....so cool...very catchy. I am still humming it in my head.
<3 the super shirt :)
