  • Flannery's voice and music is so unique - has flavours of Dylan, Waits and John Martyn. Beautiful words and stories weaved into superb melodies. Great band and backing singers too.

  • Just watched "Happy Ever Afters" the film not bad, but the song at the end really caught my attention. Had to keep rewinding until I got the name of the song then fast forward to see who sang it! Really beautiful song and just amazing lyrics, will be buying a copy of white lies, well done Mick Flannery

  • Beautiful

  • I love you Mick. X X X

  • He is great. I actually heard this song somewhere else, and I really enjoyed it. Beautiful.

  • hey, check out my mick flannery cover, let me know what ye think, thanks

  • This song is a killer, killing what's usually left unsaid.

  • jesus almighty. nobody can be that good /only jennifer rushe cud hold this mans coat

  • tomwaits cohen dylan in one ball

  • I loved you long before the day I told you...

  • I'm looking forward to see him in Basel on the "Winterzauber Bühne" in dezember.

  • saw him last night at the Junction Festival in Clonmel - FANTASTIC TALENT !

  • This young man's talent is limitless! I LOVE my CDs WHITE LIES and Mick Flannery + band LIVE at the Cork Opera House November 2008. Check him out on MySpace.

    I am floored! WELL DONE MICK! Huge warm & fuzzy hugs and a peck on those sharpies! Gram Pam

  • Dis schong is called schafety roapp! you'd never guess he was from cork when he starts singing tho, just a sweet sweet voice, love it!

  • @333joemc You'd know he's from Cork BUT he has a sweet voice? dunno where you got 'schong'. Just goes to show most people don't listen

  • @echoceleste just goes to show some people don't read, you misquoted me in your comment, I said you wouldent know he's from cork from listining to his singing voice, i was making the point that his speaking voice is quite incongruous to the preconceived notion of  what some people would imagine him to sound like not having heard him speak before, or not knowing he's from Cork. On a separate issue his singing voice is sweet to listen to. Hope that clears things up for you.

  • @333joemc Fair enough, I see what you were trying to say. I was only having a laugh, and had no intention of starting a fight - too much of that on youtube already.

  • This is what music is all about. We dont see music like this much, these songs are rare gems. Great song and this guy deserves alot of sucess with songs like this. keep up the good work.

  • Wow..such an amazing voice..beautiful

  • awesome!!

  • No its his aunt thats singing with him..... he's unreal!! He has amazing talent! Best irish singer i've ever heard! Lyrics, voice, music.... all top class!!

  • theres alot to be said for Colaiste Stiofain Naofa and this mans talent!!

  • I Love Him

  • Got this song is just amazing... has such passion in it.... I just keep listening to it over and over..... Is that Lisa Hannigan singing with him in the Chorus?

  • serious talent. i really hope this guy makes more records and goes on to have huge sucess. In the jedward age that we live in real music like this is being shoved out the door which is such a shame.

  • Stunning production, stunning song, stunning voice... simply beautiful...

  • Amazing.

  • Lovely Tone!! love his voice!

  • White Lies made my Christmas

  • mick your a legend man beautiful song my friend

  • anyone know any artists similar to mick outside of ireland love it and want more thanks

  • Maybe try Ben Harper, Tom Waits, Ryan Adams, Tom McRae, Damien Rice, Interference. Last 2 are Irish of course but if you like Mick You'll probably like all of the above. Enjoy!

  • Brilliant singer! Saw him in Stratford on Monday, supporting Kate Walsh. Just him & his guitar - totally superb. Booked to see him again in Birmingham - can't wait.
