[allenshepard]

why am I crying...

[fjgren]

Ta'me!

[voivodvlad1]

Tom Clancy always looked like a Hell-raiser having a grand time. Rest in peace lads, and thanks for all the music!

[Timothydlol]

this brilliant and only voices used

[MrTamadrummer3]

No It's not "Tell Me" its "Ta'me!" as in "Too Me", from sailors pulling ropes to hoist the Rigging on ships! They Pulled the Rope towards themselves or "Ta'me!"

Yep Thats EXACTLY how they sounded when my father and I got the rare chance to sing and drink with them when they came to Irish Fest back in the 90's.

UP The Long Ladder and Down the Short Rope, To HELL With King Billy and God Bless the Pope, If that dosn't do I'll Tear him in Two and send him to HELL With his Red White and Blue!

[NeglectedField]

TIMMAH!

[midnight1963]

@covermethis1

No. He says "tommy" as in ...his name; Tommy Clancy "... so my mother told me "TOMMY ... WAY HAUL AWAY ..."

[wideernie]

Can't stop listening to this, harmonisation at it's best!!!

[steaksand]

this music is the best for my night>>the clancy brother and tommy on tommy....you make the songs so sweet

[MrRizikoo]

wish a group of 4 could sing any song ...

[thatsdyn]

Nice song but why is he calling out for Timmey on South Park? I'm not making fun, I love the clancy brothers, but I kept thinking about Timmy

[Deathwysh]

@thatsdyn He's singing "to me". This was the sort of song sailors would sing while hauling on lines to raise sails or the anchor. The "to me" part was their cue to haul.

[victortico1]

What a great group of lads. Wonderful music. R.I.P.

[RevFrJoel1]

Mea Culpa! I hit the dislike button by grievous error!

[sh1nk3n]

I will explain why Liam Clancy has not aged in forty years.

He does what he loves. He cannot do otherwise. And in this way, he is immortal.

"To me!"

Haul away, Joe.

[firbolg1963]

thought tom made up the numbers but i think he may have had the best voice

[Thrawn6211]

Yeah, I guess they were stereotyping "Yankee girls" because most of them aren't fat and lazy, well not fat anyways.

[bigman1916]

Always thought Tommy had the best voice. God how I miss all of them

[malachy1847]

Both Laim Clancy and Tommy Makem were the real' front men' of the group the rest were mere Wallpaper....

[MacBloscaidh]

@malachy1847 unfair.

[malachy1847]

@MacBloscaidh As a life long fan "The Clancy's" ... that's just my take on same and i do respect your opinion, anyhow... ..they are now having those mighty sessions up above ...I think "The Parting Glass" is the song that should be sung at every wake... God rest them all we shall never see their like's again ....

[MacBloscaidh]

@malachy1847 Agreed!

[spacefox71]

I was lucky enough to see Tommy Makem shortly before he passed away playing with one of his sons. His voice was as rich and resonant as it was in the 70's and his stories- incredible! I was raised on this original line up, and, Man, there's nothing like 'em.

[spadinajack]

Nice little tune, but NOT papish enough....

[leonpat2002]

It's true he never aged at all till the day he died, fair play to him it wasn't from mindin himself!!! They had a great time. I always wonder did the south park boyos get Timmy from Tommy?? lol

[gally7]

god rest liam clancy

[v1s1onsofjohanna]

How is it that Liam Clancy has not aged in forty years?

[corpsemunger]

[mateo7205]

I cant help but to sing this song when i get one too many pints in me.

[makinawdandy6699]

King Louis was the King of France before the revolu-shy-yan.

[uzytkownik90]

Very nice performance

[gaia2u]

my teacher taught me this song with different lyrics

[hofffan333]

what teacher coz mine did the same

[youpick4me]

Timmy!

[CompVid101]

Can't quite understand the comments below about Tom Clancy. Lacks passion? Doesn't want to be there? Tom C's voice was the foundation of this group's belting, blasting style on about half their songs. Paddy was straight up strong; Liam and Tommy M. had lyrically fine voices - but Tom C. was the rock at the bottom. He was also by far the most successful actor (all 4 tried), appearing in dozens of productions and TV shows in its Golden Age.

[rmm413c]

Comp, I think they were talking about Tommy Makem (who's not even wearing his obligatory sweater), not Clancy. Tom Clancy always seemed to be the most passionate and boisterous of the group.

[CompVid101]

I meant to reply, rmm - of course you're right. Tommy M. seemed more comfortable by this time in his career as a solo - a bit of strain shows even in his duo with Liam at times. Note though that the sweater ("jumpers," as they called them) is on the stage near Tommy. Those things are warm in Arctic conditions - under TV or stage lights, almost unbearable, I'd think. I've had one I bought in Connemara 25 years ago and have worn it comfortably once here in So. California!

[demazasparriba]

¡¡King Louis was the King of France before the revolution!!... and then he got his head cut off, it spoiled his constitution!!

[big78900]

Proud to bear the surname Clancy

[EsamG]

beautiful , just beautiful.

[TARTANCAM]

tom clancy had an awesome voice...prob the best voice of them all

[zelda1996]

tommy almost looks as though he doesnt want to be there

[DaraghPhelan]

Not at all its just he dint have much to do on that song except blasta chorus

[lars3939]

but hey always looks like that, always...and his singing always lacks passion

[orckiller91]

@lars3939 go listen to four green feilds by tommy or any outher song from him and come back and say that again

[MonetteBooks]

Marvelous group!

[howdofolks]

utter brilliance

[nhgoodeatsguy]

yeah, but he sounds grand just the same.

[cinciquadsquad]

Tommy was not told it was a dress rehearsal.

[ellisatc]

His "uniform" is laying behind him...must have got hot.

[zelda1996]

hm thats funny though
