Here Come The Irish (song about Notre Dame)

[dansecondbase]

Go IU!

[e5grunt]

I went to ND. I stepped on the field about where Knute Rockne once stood. I looked up and asked "I know I am not suppose to ask for anythig for myself..but just this once, just this time..if you could see your way clear I would like the chance to coach High School football"...four days later I was called by the , then, head coach of Don Bosco HS in New Jersey and asked if I wanted to interview for a coaching job. I ended up coaching there for four years. ND is very special.

[LeeBrown3rd]

Are you ready? Tonight vs. Detroit @ 9pm ET on ESPNU!

[velma123]

I was just watching this and thinking about this still gives me goosebumps every time I hear this song. What an amazing song. I will forever listen to this song.

[MrJojogun]

Why can't i share this wonderful song with my cousin in Belfast....it says I don't have sufficient permission when I try???

[Irishfanism]

I just love this song,without Notre Dame college football is nothing!

[greymoose1000]

@Irishfanism You are truly delusional! Fight ON USC!

[bruiserND73]

"God Country & Notre Dame"

Play like a champion today.

[sgault100]

71days 7hours 12mins

[allaboutNDIRISH]

GO IRISH!!!

[gparshal]

The pianist is the composer, John Scully. Played in the NFL for 10 years for the Falcons. Consensus All-American at ND. In my Music Theory 101 class with me in 1976, if I recall. Nice guy. Had an evil laugh. I never could believe that his hands would get so beat up playing on Saturday (he was a center) and on Monday he could come in and play piano so well.

[FLIPS360100]

i love this song it gives me goose bumps i listen to it everyday

[mtnfyre]

foe some one that grew up watching IRISH football. this song is wonderful. I got to finally see a game on campus.

the grotto and campus were beautiful. and as a former marching band geek the band and irish guard blew me away,

WE ARE ND

[colleenm1013]

My Dad was a ND fan for more than 70 yrs. He asked about ND scores in his WWII letters to my Mom. All 6 kids were @ ND by age 2. He brought Grotto holy water home for Mom when she had breast cancer. This was 1 of his favorite songs. It was played @ the funeral home! His casket was Irish green w/ the Irish blessing inside & bottles of ND holy water next to him-the Perrier of holy water! This song still gives me goosebumps & makes me cry. I love you my Irish Dad & I love the Irish of Notre Dame!!

[coachfb18]

@colleenm1013 Almost same story with me my friend, My dad and myself biggest ND FANS IN THE WORLD! I lost my father 2 weeks ago, everybody says he is up there with KNUTE, the 4 horseman etc...

[SuperIrishforever]

@colleenm1013

GOD BLESS YOUR WONDERFUL FATHER AND GOD BLESS YOUR FAMILY ALWAYS

[pat2325]

I remember

[pat2325]

I would love it if it was sung at Celtic Park in Glasgow. 60,000 sons and daughters of Ireland at every home game, it would sound good if we adapted the words. Especially when we are beating the likes of Manchester Utd and Rangers.

[groffus11]

@pat2325 I agree think ofe the voices singing something like "here come the Irish to win the game" I get goose bumps when I hear this song I just get images of Croke Park or Landsdowne road chearing on the boys in green

[justfulbredirish]

as a son of eire< do ye mind me askin wats ur fasination wit are land so green dat most of ye ave neva seen????? dont mean any disrespect just love ta know???????

[ctfan20]

@justfulbredirish because half of our ancestors came from Ireland!!!

[coirpeach1]

@justfulbredirish I guess its important from people to identify with nationality,and what better nationality to be but a son or daughter to Ireland..After all we are the men of the Gael the men that god made mad for all or wars are merry and our songs are sad.....

[DukeGoIrish]

@justfulbredirish ~the song above sings of the beautiful campus at ND, not of the ole sod in Ireland~fyi~my grandda was from Norhtern Ireland & I have been there many times

[wpetrey34743]

I live in Irish country, but the Irish ok, I prefer to watch Georgia, I may live here, But I'm southern born and will always be a southerner

[flattop44sc]

@wpetrey34743 I live in GA.With so many on probation here at UGA believe me seeing a team like ND,it's scholars and garduation rate is a breath of fresh air.

[Tomko401]

I went to my first ND game last year, and there is nothing quite like it anywhere else in the world.

[simplexkim]

i would be very proud to step foot on the University of Notre Dame next fall as a fighting irish :]

[jjkirkner24]

Great Song! Gives me chills and gets me pumped up for any Notre Dame sporting event.

[Steviethetornadokid]

I could sing this song word For word

[bluefox9er]

simply awesome...makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up!! Notre Dame for ever...go IRISH

[BRONXIRISH78]

is it too much to have asked her to pronounced notre dame properly? cant wait for football season to start...while this song may pump up the alumni how about a song that pumps up the players and the subway alumni such as myself?

[sparkyfoley]

@BRONXIRISH78 then this song should pump you up!!!!! or you arent the fan you think you are.......just got home from ND...and i listened to this a few times there....

[dannerization]

I just received the biggest goose bumps! Absolutely the most beautiful song next to the fighting Irish Song. Nothing can ever top that!

[CountryDave84]

Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!

[lordofwrath88]

not every school has a Celine Dion style song. cool

[nyirishfan]

This song truly does "Wake Up the Echoes".

[ProfK2]

Wonderful song. I will need to find it on CD. Win or lose, Irish fans are always proud of their school and our Mother.

[proffromgview]

Beautiful song. Ever notice that all good ND songs are about the past. I suppose most songs are, but there is no other school that has to live so much in the past as this one....

[sonofireland1]

great song go the irish

[213ND]

I LOVE NOTRE DAME!

[eoconnor82]

Go Irish!!!!!!! Happy St. Patrick's Day everyone!!!!!

[amichip]

Absolutely awesome! Can't wait til the fall, the Irish are on their way back!

[drunk2thepowerofsick]

lovely song isnt it. good voice on the girl.

[JKM070]

We are the Champions ... Roll Tide Roll ...

[deckywalsh1]

As an Irish man born and raised, who moved to America from 1997-2006 and naturalised as a Citizen, I am proud of being both Irish and American, proud to hold citizenship of both and this song makes me proud as a 'true' Irish American!

[ocndirish]

Can't believe how well this song captures the aura of the campus - for sub alums and alums alike. Great job by John Sully and beautifully performed.

Go Irish!

[fightingirishfan08]

Also never attended ND but nobody does it like Notre Dame football.

[irish4evermore]

No other place in the world quite like the University of Notre Dame.

[ryridahND7]

even though Notre Dame has become elitist and wants to become another ivy-league school,by only accepting kids with GPAs above 4.0 and basically a nerd.Instead of that kid with a 3.5 plus played sports,volunteered and just absolutly loves the university...But its still Notre Dame and it will ALWAYS be special

[shamrockgerry]

for tcold...................win,fi­ght,belive,

[fishergrl78]

The most beautiful campus I've ever been too. I can't wait to go back again one day.

I didn't go to ND but I've been a ND football fan forever and wil continue to be.

GO IRISH!!!! Awesome song!

[mtnfyre]

As a Irish Fan for a lot of years. I love this song. I was on campus for the first time a couple of years ago for the boston college game. I fell in love with the campus. I love the Fighting Irish. I did Marching Band in High School. and seeing the Band and the Irish Guard, Man it was something. GO IRISH YOU ARE ND

[shamrockgerry]

im irish and may god never leave us or our spiriti

[TheDJeter2]

Notre Dame brings a great presence of God and that is a reason besides athletics why Notre Dame is so amazing!

[TheDJeter2]

NOTRE DAME IS THE GREATEST CATHOLIC COLLEGE EVER. gOD IS ALWAYS PRESENT

[natureperson420]

here come 'dem 'dere Irish...

[mariapazarana]

Notre Dame is a place wher you can definately feel the presence of God. I think that's what makes it so special and why people fall "in love" with it.

GO IRISH!

[mickyerin1]

This song is amazing and brought tears to my eyes. I went to Notre Dame and it is my proudest personal accomplishment. Even though I didn't always love it, I am so VERY proud to be from ND.

[GiantOgreNV44and45]

She sang this at halftime of the womens basketball game today vs. Arkansas Pine Bluff. It gave me chills. So talented

[rescueswimmer231]

man this is my favortie school in the whole world i love this school so much and wish i was smart enought to go. Im a swimmer, and i would love to swim there, but im just not fast enough its such a shame cause i just love that school

[gregar89]

I'm sorry to hear that you can't attend the University of Notre Dame, but remember that anyone can be a member of the Notre Dame family! We are ND!

[notredamemike]

[kbirish1]

Amazing GO IRISH BEAT USC!!!

[Spencer19brook]

After watching this video, I realized for the first time, that there is no other place like Notre Dame.

[snavarro228]

@Spencer19brook You got that right, if you have ever stepped on the field before - it is a extremely humbling experience...

[ireland782134]

An excellent song for an amazing school!  GO IRISH!!!

[Melfritch]

That song is just plain horrible..nothing irish about it

[kosciuskocounty]

This song gets me so pumped up before watching the Irish beat their opponents every Saturday. GO IRISH!!!!

[tmccall44]

anyone know where I can get a copy of this song as an MP3?

[gradmanosu]

Search "The O'Neill Brothers" and "Here Come the Irish" in the iTunes Music Store . . . you'll find it as track no. 1 on that album. It's performed by Cathy Richardson who I believe is singing here.

[ScottJ794]

[mikeman1510]

Go Irish!!!! Brings tears to my eyes!!!!

[gentledoc]

As the son of a mother who was 100% Irish, and coming from a family of Irish Catholics who love Notre Dame, this song is as good as it gets. Go Irish!

[notredame838]

GO ND

[STMARTIN009]

[ndrocksmysocks44]

hell yeah!! go irish!

[nddad98]

Having been exposed to the ND experience through my daughter, and ND athlete and graduate (sorry to be redundant), I can say that to me, there truly is magic in the name. Having and Irish ancestry and having visited the land of leprechauns on two occasions, Ireland, too, is truly magical to me. This is a beautiful song and today is played prior to most ND home contests, which I had the pleasure of hearing several times. I get a tightness in my throat every time I hear it, which is often.

[pile4u69]

this is a very touching song but very wonderful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[semperlupe]

The ND is great. Love it. Love this song and how it's performed. Here come the Irish! Epic.

[sportylow08]

Erin Go Bragh!!!

[HayabusaSenToTai]

How come I never heard of this while I was at ND? Ah well, it is a good song, reminds of someone I used to know at SMC. Haha! :P

[sackid900]

[K8thegr811]

[glonglad]

Powerful, grows on me every time i listen to it, only came across it by chance.

Cheers from Ireland

[gohogs73177]

How great would it be for her to sing that solo part right before the team comes out on the field when USC comes to town in 09! WHEW! GO IRISH!

[BBurgeson]

I remember driving away from campus when this song came on my iPod shuffle. By the time I made it to the airport my face was blotchy and dried out, my hair damp and my mascara smudged (I thought it was waterproof!)

Powerful song.

[Jazzerooney]

Great tune, i don't know why we have such a large following in America(besides the emigration after the famine) but its much appreciated.

[Sportymike]

Well, I don't tink this song is about the Irish people, but the varsity sports teams of the University of Notre Dame.

[quizzy99]

it's simple why people hate us....We are the best and they wanna knock us of the top of the hill...even in defeat ND still has all eyes on it....everyone wants to know what the IRISH are doing....

[TheGentl3man]

Im from Ireland and can safely say i never in my life heard of this university(?)/song until i searched the word Irish on here, so um what is Irish about it?, apart from the French name and the fact that its in the US that is lol

[MagdaleneMary]

I got goosebumps listening to this, quite literally.

[Bhouncer]

God Bless all Oglaigh na hEireann =)

Well I remember the leaves a fallin'

And far off music like pipes a callin'

And I remember the golden morning

I saw the long ranks as they were forming..

Erin Go Bragh!

T.A.L

[whyUTsucks]

this whole entire texas family is 100% nd we bleed blue and gold go irish

[99eskimo99]

Ireland isn't whiskey and potatoes, It's whiskey and patriotism. lol no affence ment, i'm irish

[BBaxterAC]

I often wonder why so many have difficulty appreciating our love for Notre Dame, I think next time someone questions us, we will just play this song. Our hearts forever, love thee Notre Dame

Dennis ('69) & Maggie

just full of tradition and pride. You have to be dead !

[STMARTIN009]

[WSBT960]

[e5grunt]

Notre Dame football - not much better than that.

[mdcphotography]

ND will win a national title by 2010. Mark my words!

And the last thing he said to me -- "Rock," he said - "sometime, when the team is up against it -- and the breaks are beating the boys -- tell them to go out there with all they got and win just one for the Gipper...

[creoleIrish]

Gets me every time....

Love Thee NOTRE DAME!!!

[coachfb18]

GO IRISH!

[96cambridge]

Gaeilge abú.

Notre Dame abú

Put the word gaeilge in your info please

[coachCBM]

Brings tears to my eyes every time I hear it. NO other school has that much tradition that ONE song can give you so many different feelings.

OK on a side note. I am SICK of no one fearing coming to play the Irish any more. To everyone that has season tickets or goes to games. DONT JUST SIT THERE. We need to bring the fear back to ND stadium. A rowdy crowd from the kick off is good for 7 pts.

[labia02]

oh men i love this song.

im a notredemian, i graduated my high school in Notre Dame of Abuyog, Philippines

[12BNDIrish]

This song plays on a radio station in South Bend at 5:00pm on the Friday before gameday. It is really a great football experience in South Bend. GO IRISH!!!!!!!!

[Digination]

This song is so awesome! Haunting and chill bump inducing, this is the new anthem of Our Lady.

[xosortasweet16xo]

go irish!!!! :]
