thin lizzy southbound

[forzamicha46]

=) love it !!

[dm3830]

Gorham did do most of the guitar work on this album for reasons discussed, but Robbo was in it too. There are live vids of them doing this song together very nicely

[ogdroadsong]

think this is my favourite Lizzy solo, and think it's by Gorham cos Robertson was going apeshit at that time. What a great band they were, shame they couldn't keep those 2 awesome talents together for longer but it's a good thing there are 3 or 4 albums graced by their fantastic partnership! I like a lot of Lzzy stuff outside of those years but Gorham/Robertson was the real Lizzy.

[LarssaLarsson]

@ogdroadsong

yeah uts a shame but robbo screwd up in -77 he injured his hand in a bar fight and was allways a bully what i wh he was kicked out

[TheMichaelseymour]

R.I.P. Phil

[Rhythmeister]

Some TWAT DISliked this?!

[fuckylucker]

Jim Fitzpatrick did most of Lizzy's artwork

[maedrosGR]

i searched this from a cover of Therion.What a great tune,cover is also good with female vocals.Check it.

[Julietthefrenchgreek]

Thin Lizzy make me so unbelievably proud to be Irish. They are undoubtedly one of the best bands in the world, past, present and future.

[dannymcmince]

@Julietthefrenchgreek What a statement! very true, I love this band!

[loafbo]

1 person was northbound

[tiger135775]

One of my favorite songs... this is one of the bands more under rated albums. Bad Reputation is the first I recomend, After Fighting. Nightlife as well. Although the band aparently disliked the production , to me It sounds flawless.

[Grumberf]

ohhowowohh I can't stop Lissening.

[tkdjohan]

ooohwowo I'm going southbund <3

[forzamicha46]

my new Anthem :) ♥♥☺☻ ®

long live Lizzy !!! ™

[adambeckett37]

go and see limehouse lizzy if you get a chance, awesome tribute!

[isimullins]

words escape me. the pure bliss this song brings... just fucking awesome :)

[TheMichaelseymour]

BOOM TIME IS WELL FUCKING GONE .....GOLD RUSH IS FUCKING OVER .

[pasatio]

The painting above is awesome. Where is it from??

[LarssaLarsson]

@pasatio

Its from a cd called The boys are back in town. it was realised in in Sweden for 10 years ago. I bought the poster for about 7 Euro in an music store in Gothenburg. But if you want the cd it doesent cost more then 4-5 euro.

[kitter100]

@LarssaLarsson The painting is by Jim Fitzpatrick. Google him , His web-site will be there.

He did all the artwork for Lizzy through the years and was a personal friend of Phil Lynott.

[IRAmichaelkpk]

EPIC COVER ART!!!!!!!

[LarssaLarsson]

@IRAmichaelkpk

i even got the poster framed.

[jimidrix15]

@LarssaLarsson Where can i buy this poster? It's unreal!

[LarssaLarsson]

@jimidrix15

I bought it in a store called Rock house in Gothenburg sweden. But if you have luck so can you find it on ebay.co.uk oe ebay.com.

[jimidrix15]

@LarssaLarsson Thanx alot, i'll just type thin lizzy posters in on ebay then :)

[bbqeatinbuckeye]

Gosharootie! I hope all this fuss about what version this song wasn't started with my old post. Hey people! Its a groovy night in TX with a nice moon and plenty of heat with old Phil and the boys laying out some heartfelt love and rock-n-roll. Tilt an adult beverage towards Thin Lizzy and fire up the air guitars! "Ooooooh Oooh! I'm going Southbound'! YEAH! Kerrrrang!

[Drewcole314]

Sounds like the peel session version. But im not quite sure. = /

[LarssaLarsson]

@Drewcole314

its from Bad reputation still.

[redhead5150]

One of the best songs of all-time!!!!!

[xeractus]

Why is the video 8:35 long when the song is only 4:20 long? =S

[LarssaLarsson]

@xeractus

What is beacuse i made some others videos with the same pitcture and forgotend to short down the pitcture time in the "movie"

[zagan1]

This must be live or something as it's not the same sound as the CD or studio song.

very much the same though.

[LarssaLarsson]

No this is the version that is on Bad reputation album.

[lcmtvbreath4]

@zagan1 Nah, this is definitely the original... the Peel Sessions one is slightly different.... and the most famous live version is off of Live and dangerous in which you can hear the crowd very clearly

[LarssaLarsson]

@lcmtvbreath4

finaly someone more then me that can hear its the original.

[lcmtvbreath4]

@LarssaLarsson Seriously... I can't believe some of the comments... But you can't blame them for not being as knowledgeable as us in the ways of Lizzy. anyone that's heard all the versions before though should be able to spot the differences.

[LarssaLarsson]

@lcmtvbreath4

I know. And i see your point in it. But its staring to be a bit annoying. Look at Whiskey in the jar that i have upploaded thay have wrote allomst the same thing for the last seven month.

[Metalms1975]

One of my favorites...Lizzy They are the best!

[bbqeatinbuckeye]

I'm sorry friend. I double checked and you are right. My bad. Must of been all that high volume over the years that put a dent in the old hearing. Thanks again for posting this. Rock on!

[LarssaLarsson]

No problem mate!

[bbqeatinbuckeye]

Really? It certainly doesn't sound like it. This version is cleaner and sounds "live" as compared to the Bad Reputation version.

[LarssaLarsson]

okey but it still from that record

[bbqeatinbuckeye]

Is this version from the Peel Sessions as well? Thanks again for posting these GREAT songs. Much love and respect from TX n the USA.

[LarssaLarsson]

Actually this is from Bad reputation this version.

[ccandmw]

hi again larssalarssa its me woodz i had a really hard time finding someone to make me a poster of this picture but i think that i have. everyone is scared of copyright laws its not made yet but the guy said he would. i had to kinda of make friends with the guy witch is ok and i had to promise to never tell where i got it.times sure have changed everyones scared to do anything because of getting sued

[LarssaLarsson]

@ccandmw wow i dident fought it was so hard to get any copis of this poster but if i was you i whould ´look at the britsh ebay they may have it

[dmcintoshmsn]

Phillip, never again only once love ya......

[simonfergus1]

class song! a true irish legend!

[YoGuitarshredman]

Thin Lizzy forever!!!!! MY BOYS!!!!

[redhead5150]

I agree, Phil is a great one we lost! This song is next to the COWBOY SONG as my favorite!!!!! Remember that his music still lives on. It's our memory and thanks to Phil & Thin Lizzy!!!!!

[MrMEXDALE]

The Best Band in my opinion.Phil was pure genius.

[TheRisingforce2000]

nobody sings like phill lynott he was a great one

[61floyd61]

I LOVE this Thin Lizzy song...one of my favourite of all time Lizzy song. No Lynott, no Lizzy. He was the ultimate rocker!!!!

[TheRisingforce2000]

one of the few good songs after jailbreak albumn the good songs seem fewer and fewer

[tlapower]

This song is awesome. Thanks for putting up this song. The radio where I live plays the same songs again and again and you don't get to hear other cool songs that an artist did. Thanks!

[ccandmw]

[ccandmw]

[lumpagogo]

Can't believe my never heard this song until 2007. It is a fabulon. Would rate it as one of the best by any band in the entire decade. Phil Lynott, come back, mang! You not supposed-a leave us, mang!!

[steelelfc1]

91' i got screwed the most

[Ryan4twenty]

What a great song this is.

Thin lizzy rules

[campintom]

I wasnt born until 85 so i got screwed out of all the good bands. Thin Lizzy is my favorite band.

[creedence18]

88' i got screwed even more lol

[backthisway]

bad luck .. saw them in 79 with gary moore, ac dc with bon scott whitesnake with moody and marsden ufo with schenker par travers with pat thrall, trower with dewar van halen with dave lee roth .. all the same year .. great fun yr !! then got my first shag moring of the whitesnake gig .. arrrrhh

[RikkiX69]

Wow!!! I forgot about this one!!! Phil please forgive me!!! What was this song about????? The emotions are so deep like nothing like now a days. These lyrics and riffs are so beautiful!!!!

PHIL you are still my fave!!!! You, Joe Strummer, James Brown, Ron Ashton, The Ramones, and Hendrix are jamming in Heaven!!!!

[pauleds1]

Much better than Micheal Jackson

[Kirok]

Lizzy was the greatest band ever, and Lynott is a transcendent figure in rock history. I miss that guy every damn day.

[motleycrue24]

stupid question but did john sykes play on this track?

[LarssaLarsson]

no hi didnt this is 4 year befor his time in lizzy

[redzrool]

Fantastic song, had the privelage of seeing them live just the once, on the opening night of the thunder and lightning tour in Aberdeen, awesome show.

[redhead5150]

Thin Lizzy was great and paved the way for alot of bands!

[Dean666machine]

i just really want to go back in time and watch the best band in the world!!

[reverandblack]

check out Limehouse Lizzy, they're as close to the real thing as you get, and they rock !!!

[widerthanone]

Limehouse Lizzy are OK. They are a long long way behind the Dundalk based Tinn Lizzy. They make Limehouse sound like beginners.

[motleycrue24]

probely one of the best songs ever written

[nuclearlost]

I love this song!!!!

[Blewline67]

Thin Lizzy were way before thier time. They wrote the songs of my generation. There was nothing better than skating Empty pools and listening to some lizzy. The best times of my life. R.I.P. Phil

[estrong38]

I totally agree bro

[shmuel33]

awesome version, I love THIN LIZZY

[jcdenton7]

Thanks for posting.
