The Dubliners - 7 Drunken Nights (live)

[RubyMoon507]

This was sung at my granma's funeral night. Over 30 of the family stamping and clapping to send her on her way. Good memories, and a good song for a 4 in the morning drunken Irish get together :D

[BigBadWolfMasafaka13]

Mirk i'm french of nationality (dad is french, mum is irish)

Not rly nice to say that bout french people :p

Anyways it's ok i have many thoughts bout americans and 2nd or 3rd or 10th generation irish (as you call yourselves)

I guess that if this were an indian (american) clip you'd have said yeah my great grandma is 3/4 nativeamerican

jeez, americans love themselves more than their ancestors :)

[Presbristow]

@BigBadWolfMasafaka13 The problem in America, for must people, is that we are all muts. I'm French, Scot, Irish, British, and Jewish. We have lots of people from every nationality in the world here and we keep mixing. This makes our ancestry not banded together. However, It happens in most developing counties now and America certainly wasn't the first to start that. We are, in the scheme of things, a relatively young country as far as written history is concerned.

[harrisshonagh]

the best best of irish music,,, us irish can talk truth nd ing it too,,,x :) :) :P

[chuckythekillerdoll]

[legionireland]

[windbreck]

this song is the best : ))

[windbreck]

this song is the best :))

[ScanlonrocNYC]

You really shouldn't sing this song until you have about 6 pints of beer drank.

[JW100001]

to (some) Americans:

Northan Ireland is part of the U.K , sorry but it is.

The u.s.a joined the second world war after pearl harber, so the 'commonwealth': which included Canada, India, Australia, Newzealand and other massive countries such asBrazil, china and Russia were also part of the allied forces... I think its as much a case of these countries stopping the U.S.A talking Japanese as the other way arround!

[isadoorbellhere]

this is my uncle sining

[119944778]

OHHHH boy Don`t I love them!!!

[Superjuniorbox15]

No irish people dont say we

[drew23ski]

Shaw is a scottish name as far as I know. And of course irish people use the term "wee". Scotland and Ireland are only 12 miles apart and there's been immigration both ways over the years. Especially the Kingdom of Dalriata which was part of the north east coast of ireland and the south west of scotland

[Superjuniorbox15]

@drew23ski No irish people dont say wee

[Atomic440]

@Superjuniorbox15 I'm from Ireland and I use "wee". It's more used in Ulster than anywhere else I'd say, but I assure you... it's as Irish as it is Scottish.

[viper1970025]

@Atomic440 Youlick they say WEE in the north you wee little prick.

[Atomic440]

@viper1970025 What are you talking about, you spoon? Ulster is the North of Ireland you arsehole.

[AttackShipOnFire]

Alkies.

Yay. Men with beards

Thank fuck I got basic JSA, else I'd be joining the tramps this winter.

If I'm still here next Spring, I'll see you all then.

Cheers

Attack.Ship.On.Fire

[MrShawsy123]

ladies put your handbags away, it doesnt matter where your from enjoy this nice wee song

[NathalieVicious]

@MrShawsy123 Are you from Scotland? or do they use the word "wee" in Ireland too? just wondering lol

[MrShawsy123]

@NathalieVicious i'm from ireland and we do use the word "wee" :)

[NathalieVicious]

@MrShawsy123 That's cool. I didn't know that, always thought it was a Scottish word! :)

[valentuss]

You are deeply - deeply  in my Heart!!! For ever!

[Thag20]

[AttackShipOnFire]

[dec6816]

[cabrio379]

"Torfrock" and "Trunkenbold"

[ArizonaKnightWolf]

[ghost591]

they dont the original had seven but they were to "vulgar" for public ears, so they too the last two out so now theres five

[dragons2k100]

theyre to vulgar to sing for most bands it takes some hunting, ive found lyrics but no-one performing them

[ady10001]

@ArizonaKnightWolf

Irish week is 5 nights long.

[danielson2k9]

@ArizonaKnightWolf  Shut Up.

[j0llygr33ng1ant]

@ArizonaKnightWolf the recording company wouldn't let them record them because they're anti-english.

[mongorians22]

@ArizonaKnightWolf theyre not allowed to be sung, because theyre innapropriate. look up the full lyrics

[AttackShipOnFire]

@mongorians22

Yeah. The full verses are hilarious.

[evlandsberg4ever]

[Aztecanian]

story of my life

[ady10001]

This is a transcript from the Irish parliament.

[TheVIKINGHAMMER]

STAY DUBLINERS

[puregloster]

I couldnt agree with you more. If my Dad had lived to hear that Ireland had banned smoking in pubs - well God knows what he'd have thought. No Smoking in Irish pubs!?! That's like the Grand National without horses!

[bagpuss13]

why oh why..did the rebels..(irish)..vote away all our freedoms to the eu (lisbon treaty)...u took the eu 30 pieces of silver..and doomed all of europe into tryanny..luke, ronnie, ciaron. will be turning in there graves...what ever happened to rebellion against tyranny ireland!!!..

[technoturnip1]

to true im of irish descent and said the same simlar thing to my grandad! napoleon the kaiser and hitler must have put out the flames of hell pissing themselves laughing!

[ArdRi79]

Lads, do yeh know this is based on the folklore theme of a man who vanishes for years and when he returns he doesnt recignise his own son? Its a song about the cost of alcahol not one venerating it.

Its only a bawdy tune today because censors banned it. They banned it on the mistaken conception that the commenters here share, that it was venerating the drunk instead of berating him.

He looses everything he has in the story to drink. His woman, his horse and his house. The real fate of a drunk

[ArdRi79]

Dont get me wrong, I like a pint in the local Im no tee totaller but its worth noting that John Sheahan there on the far left was.

The lads were who they were and are who they are but theyre not drunken teenagers, they know the cost and an expression of that cost from wiser heads then us probably shouldnt be misinterpreted.

[buddhabassist]

shouldn't talk bad on america, lot of good people here just like ireland, brits, germany and the rest of the bloody world, alcohol can bring us all together lol, sound does make me proud of me irish roots.

[Mintroyale69]

true, but america is still fuck of assholes and closed minded fools. and alcohol is great but too much and im throwin' blows at anyone who gives me a second look...

[SatoTM3]

But an Englishman who can last till three I've never seen before =p

[frankyh101]

who is that at the right hand side of the photo does anyone know? lol

[dubliner85]

That's Ciaran Bourke, legendary member of the Dubs

[frankyh101]

lol cheers man,

Ciaran is actually my fave Dub i just thought he looked very different in this pic?

[Fellfloete]

Dragon you're a boring lamer

[thecitizens]

love it ..

[frankskive]

oh a up D FUKIN RA

[Z0tteltier]

Its a pity that there is no real word for "Fresse!" in english

epic song!

[vorderwaldlerbauer]

wie wärs mit " shut the fuck up"?

is vielleicht a bissl hart, aber trifft den sinn immerhin^^

[Z0tteltier]

Ja, stimmt schon. ABer bei dem Satz fehlt mir so das Gefühl, dass man darauf nichts mehr erwidern kann... so das abschließende, endgültige halt ... ( worüber man sich alles Gedanken machen kann) :D

[bigmeuprudeboy]

cracks me up this song

[BarbarianDragon]

Everyone on this channel is pretending to be irish. So silly.

[OrinDac]

I am of Irish decent, but I am not acting like it.

[BarbarianDragon]

For Pete's sake, who isn't of "Irish decent?"

Fun fact: we were all a different color once.

The point is, national pride is silly.

[OrinDac]

Oh you misunderstand. When I say Irish decent, I mean my mother came over here on a boat. Also, A LOT of people are not of Irish decent. Some are German or English or Norse, or a whole bunch of other things. Furthermore, NONE of us were ever different in pigment. Our ascendents may have been, but we are all the same color as when we came out of our mothers.

[BarbarianDragon]

Yeah, yeah, I've heard about the boats. Why didn't she fly? What are you, nintey years old, watching youtube? Don't buy it.

[OrinDac]

Umm....I don't really give 2 shits whether or not you buy it, the point is she was BORN in Ireland. So piss off.

[BarbarianDragon]

yeah right your mom was born in Florida probably

[OrinDac]

Like I said asshat. I really do not give Dragon's sexy tit what you believe. Maybe you should go there, before you start pissing in everyone's beer over why or why not, they choose to celebrate their heritage.

[BarbarianDragon]

your phony irish colloquialisms are at once cliched and puzzling. Asshat? Dragon's sexy tit? If you wrote a book, no one would be able to read it.

[OrinDac]

What are you fucking retarded? They're not Irish! AssHat is an American slang term for......well for people like yourself. Dragon's sexy tit is just what came to mind. How bout this. Shut the fuck up. Thats it. Thats nice and USA for you eh? Shut the fuck up. You are exactly the type of person I despise. You talk a lot of shit over the Net, because there are no consequences. If I were in the room with you, you would NEVER say anything like that to me, because you KNOW you'd get hit.

[OrinDac]

and another thing. The reason she didn't take a plane, was because she was poorer than Ghandi.

[BarbarianDragon]

Right, cuz they still have boats carrying irish immigrants away from the potato famine, striaght to ellis isle. get real.

[OrinDac]

You know what else? It wouldn't have mattered if I'd said she came over here on a plane. You'd have some problem with that. No matter what anyone says your gonna have a problem with it, because you are a troll. A saggy fucky troll, who's got nothing better to do than slime your way through online media and come up with new reasons to be miserable. You will die alone. Remember that.

[BarbarianDragon]

Ha! You are why I do this. You are the one who sounds so miserable. "Fucky" troll? That might sting if it wasn't so silly. Thumbs up, loser.

[BarbarianDragon]

SO silly...

[AtomicMick]

u fucking serious? im fucking pure Irish and i bet half of the others are, the other half are americans who parade about saying "look at me im Irish amn't i great?" and the fuckers cant even speak any gaeilge

[BarbarianDragon]

Oh geez, get off your high wannabe-irish horse. You're so irish you say it in your name and let everyone know it by dressing like a leprachaun.  you sir, are an atomic loser.

[AtomicMick]

i just went on your channel to confirm what i thought that you're a stupid american foolscap who thinks that your country is the greatest and cant stop associating Ireland with leprechauns because ye cant think of something relevant, the whole world associates america with something true, racism, obesity, bombs and retardation.

[BarbarianDragon]

Dude, I just went to YOUR channel and confirmed what I thought: that you're a leprechaun in a douche bag's body.

[OrinDac]

Why are you trolling this vid if you don't like the Irish? I have decided to console myself about your inane chatter by reminding myself that I can beat the shit out of you with my bear hands. So yeah.....if ya please. Shut the fuck up.

[OrinDac]

I don't want to attack you, because you appear to be the enemy of my enemy, but........whats wrong with being an Irish American?

[AtomicMick]

oh no, im not saying anything bad about them, just i dont like the one's who go around saying, respect me im Irish. only full irish people can do that ;)

nah just messing

[frankyh101]

tell it how it is Mick,

America can suck the backathem

[TheProudbrit]

better to be a bad irishman than a stupid american twat

[ibjtp]

@TheProudbrit If your a proud "Brit" you couldn't even rate as a "bad Irishman", you have to be a "slimey limey"!

[mongorians22]

@TheProudbrit lol better to be a stupid american twat than a supremest douchebag

[AttackShipOnFire]

@TheProudbrit

I'm a bad Scotsman, but you're as bad as each other, ya buggers!

[filch2lobster]

@TheProudbrit haha, better to be a stupid american twat than a proud brit who dumps thousands of tons of oil into our gulf

[totengraber29]

@filch2lobster That would be American companies, not British. All the engineers etc were yanks and the emergency valve that should have stopped the flow was designed and installed by an american company.

[AttackShipOnFire]

@filch2lobster Union Carbide? etc...

Glass houses...

IRA terrorists...?

& Their supporters...?

& Their US funding...?

[SatoTM3]

@filch2lobster how bout bush. twice

or vietnam? keeping cuba poor? bombing argentine while it wasnt ur bisuness? 700K civilian deaths by ur bullets in the middle east? sarah palin? saying global warming is a myth? participating in 12 wars for the last 100 years? how about being the fattest country on earth? how about creationism? or how about being os nationalistic as nazi germany was 70-80 years ago? EH? what about that ya dumb yank. (ps: yank means american, if you didnt catch that ya numbnuts

[BrodieWilsonRS]

@TheProudbrit That's a stereotype mate, although most of my fellow Americans are stupid twats.

[alan517815]

@TheProudbrit true

[jakoandmiko]

@TheProudbrit come on ireland fuck u posh bastards

[jakoandmiko]

@TheProudbrit  come on ireland fuck u posh english bastards

[Jonnyrus132]

@jakoandmiko dumb american

[kentuckybrethren502]

@TheProudbrit better to be an american twat ,than a tea totin' lobster back ,cock sucker. Irish folks got more reason to hate you fags, than they do us. You fuckers are just like the French , you ain't got no appreciation for a culture that helped your asses from speaking German.

[Schniddo]

@kentuckybrethren502 Very funny.. just like Americans have no appreciation of the Russians who stopped the Nazis on the Eastern front. I guess that's because they're commies right?? I'm not sure where American 'culture' comes into it... nationalists lack all self awareness

[Mirkwoodelves]

@TheProudbrit

Americans are generally more appreciative of Irishmen than most people, you know.

[LuckyLukeHogan]

@Mirkwoodelves Fuckin A right they are. Americans love ireland, and the Irish. Where I am from your are either Irish or French and Im not even 1 % French. We all took the risk to come to America when the potato famin occured, an most of us are glad to be born American but we are all Irish at heart. If I had the money to travel the first place I would go is back to the old country.

[VOLume72]

@TheProudbrit Several bitter defeats ill become you, sir. No call for that sort of thing. You're welcome, by the way.

[goodluck134]

@TheProudbrit didn't realize the irish hate us... good to know

[bulkyned]

whiskey 4 keego

[mikeyboy141x]

i remember my grandad showing me the dubliners when i was a young lad, i've loved them ever since, and they're songs make me laugh

[aloysiusdedalus]

Away tae fuck

[BarbarianDragon]

Thumbs up, bitches, America is the sheesh.

[BarbarianDragon]

Dude, Ireland is the most boreing place on Earth. You would probably like to have your balls sucked by America, since you're blasted out of your skull at 12 pm for lack of any damn thing to do.

[Kieranhannon]

People like you should stay in America!! Boring bastards like yourselves would be bored anywhere in the world. Im surprised you had the intellectual capacity to even get into the country, are you sure you weren't looking for africa?? We all know how fantastic americans are at world geography.

[BarbarianDragon]

Yeah we SHOULD stay in America, cuz the rest of the world sucks. Except Australia. America and Australia will rule the world, and form a new race of super-hot and anatomicaly-perfect humans. The Irish will clean our vomitoria.

[irishpoe]

Typical yank showing his maturity.

[BarbarianDragon]

Oh look, you've got "irish" right in your name, how darling. You must be so very cool. I should change my name to "American Dragon."

[irishpoe]

Hows about you get up apply for a passport fly here to Dublin and look me up on Pembroke.... ill show you how boring Eire is when your swimming your yank arse back to the states.

[ascheepe]

ay hoi mates and a pint for all! *dances around the room gaelic style* ;D

[thepurpleblackjzt]

i love this song and i'm only 11!! my grandad used to sing it he actually sang with luke kelly in the 70's and had a few pints with ronnie drew!!!

[NemainIsa]

I just came back from Dublin and I heard this at one of the pubs I went to. The most hilarious song I have heard in a long, long time.

[MoreAgro]

ah your drunk your drunk ya silly old fool,proper irish right there love it

[Gannon181]

Well aparently (wrong spelling i think) the last two nights were released on the original and never again after that

[TheLocoLover]

i still want to hear the 2 last nights x)

[Biverix]

about "mitts" on her tits and an "english tax collector" runnin outa the house with his pants upon his knees :D

[sneipen85]

I bloody love Irish music :D It`s the best language in the world;P

(or is it Scottish:p)

[Bloodmoon17]

haha, it's irish man

[sneipen85]

I know the song is Irish, but i ment " or is it Scottish that is the worlds best language" :P

[NightfallsbroXD]

They don't use the Irish language in this.... Just the Accent...... Gah ignorant people.

[sneipen85]

how do expect me to now that? im not fucking British...  by the way: what do you mean by "only the accent"? Not Irish words, just the Irish way of saying the words?

So what? I probably know more about America than
