  • "Those ppl. out there" don't have a clue,- some gaps can't be filled & time can't always have a sense of healing.. Not for you Phil... Thanx & R.I.P.

  • Love it thanks for posting !!! Lizzy !!!

  • Robbo the mad Scotsman with killer guitar work! Bloody brilliant band and tune RIP Phil!

  • Adds a lot, this version! Smoothed out, narrative...solos not as sharp, but really cool subtle shift from being a metal Power Ballad to being a love song with longevity.

  • Thé best ,

  • I so love this song, I play it over and over sometimes - there is something very haunting about it ...

  • 10 years later phil died,it is so sad

  • it seems everyone always forgets about scott gorham :(

  • @guitarlad89 your right,his solos in Bad Rep,Sun goes Down,Romeo and the Lonely girl,Suicide,as good as any.Always gonna be my favorite band and best lineup right here.Glad he didnt get to Supertramp.

  • I would love if someone had a copy of the QUB concert, i was there, but it took me yrs to understand wy the concert ended. But hey , we still had a great night in a student bedsit with spliffs and what's-that-you're-drinking?

  • sevn people are retarded

  • @50 secs!!..love it!!..phil was the greatest..hands down!

  • Amazing song and guitars!!!!!!The best ever!RIP Miss ya Phil <3

  • Robbo's guitar work in this version is simply iconic.

  • Phil is the greatest. Miss you.

  • omg this is so special!!!Freaking Amazing love the guy!Missing you Phil and yes

    Still In Love With You!!!! RIP Phil will never be another you!Your music lives on forever!!!!!! Can't stop listening to Thin Lizzy!This version is the best!!!!Rock On!!!xxoo

  • magic!

  • SImply MAGIC

  • wow man! WOW!!! any 1 got this set with better sound Q

  • @herbalenquiry The cd is available UK 75 Tour.Songs are taken from different 75 shows but close to this

  • I love how he alludes to Old flame from Johnny the Fox near the end.

  • Nice to eat the transition between Nightlife and Live & Dangerous.

  • best version...love the outro jam they do

  • The thing about Lizzy is that they were much better live, a lot of their studio work was poorly produced. If they made all of the albums like they did with Live and Dangerous then they would have been much more appreciated. Best band ever for me? AC/DC

  • rip brian x

  • love it!

  • Comment removed

  • Phil lynott and Thin Lizzy were the best rock band ever....their guitar playing was just simply brilliant.... I was lucky to see them live several times, their live shows were the best came electric on stage.....He lives on in our hearts the emotion in this song is truly perfect still brings tears to my eyes every time I hear this very beautiful love song.Phil Lynott you will never be forgotten....a true legend and the best rocker ever.Dublin is proud of you.I loved all his songs.

  • Where does time go ?

  • Dam irish tv always talk when Scott does lady killing solos!

  • I was nineteen then and very much into Thin Lizzy! still am!!!

  • I was actually at this concert in 1975 and I still remember it as if it was yesterday! Your still very much alive in my mind Phil

  • handsd down one of the best ever and one of the 1rst to use duel lead guitars, the catalog of music speaks for itself

  • I was there!! brilliant! Thanks for posting...

  • great footage .. i was only 6 years old in 1975 !! love the fact that Phil's ma is in the audience

  • Magic, I could say it reminds me of someone from my youth but no. What a song, what a band, what a front man. Not only did you put Ireland on the map you put Dublin there too. What a gig that must be now you on bass and Rory Gallagher on guitar. Music in heaven, you left us to soon but will never be forgotten. R.I.P. Philo

  • The volume of the video is a bit low, but the song itself and the interpretation are so powerful it makes up for it.

  • I played this song at my mums funeral 2008 RIP Mother, RIP Phil. xx

  • top man top band wot more can i say

  • THANK U!!!! for puttin this on

  • Wow! Fantastic that you've got this on video. Would really like to see a video of the Live and Dangerous version though: big auditorium, big sound

  • Top 1 band forr me!

  • My favourite Thin Lizzy song!

  • @davidamos83

    yeh me too

  • Legendary

  • rach2k9... well put.

  • simple as, one of the top 3 best bands ever! and THE most underrated band ever! evry1s always on bout zeppelin, the beatles and the stones. thin lizzys back catalogue offers sum ov the best rock songs ever and best ballads ever, and more ov them than any ov the bands listed!!

  • you are right. Their songs were just so good and full of emotion and they could be really heavy when they wanted but they used it as a vehicle for emotion rather than for its own sake.

  • @rach2k9

    Couldn't agree more!

  • @rach2k9 I can't agree with you more. I live in Paris and the Parisians have never heard of Thin Lizzy. For shame for shame for shame. Some of them have heard of Rory Gallagher, nevertheless there's an alley named after him in Paris.

  • @rach2k9 very true, they were far more prolific than even now people realise, if anything maybe not so much so as the Stones.

  • @rach2k9 i agree 100% jailbreak was the song that made me go deeper into thin lizzy then i was blown away by a ton of other songs by them that flew under the radar its a shame!

  • @rach2k9 i agree with u 100 per sent

  • think robbo was only 17-18 at this time musta been a big deal playin a show like this

  • @soap797 well close. Robbo was hired at age 18. When he left in 1978-9, he was about 25-26. That 1978 "Live and Dangerous" performance of this song, & w/ Robbo and Scott sharper on that amazing double solo really can't ever be topped. Lynott wrote or co-wrote all but a few songs, full of emotional topics- maybe why they're such strong material.

  • scott looks like cousin it , 9.12

  • Thin Lizzy...... what else can i say!! they are and always will be my favoite band n the world!!... the sound track of my life!!. good times and bad, lizzy was always there with me..Will be getting my phil tattoo very soon...R .I.P. PHILLIP .

  • They really remind me sbd.

  • Getting old and finally realized how my parents always hung onto that WW2 big band sound.I could never get by without my daily Thin Lizzy Fix.The Best

  • Phil sang from his heart and out of his toes...I love Thin Lizzy...guitarsolo's everything...:-)

  • Robbo's second solo is so good. I have the UK tour 75 album and his solo on that version doesn't touch this one. Thanks for putting this up, I love it.

  • Funny you say that. There's a video where Robbo, Gary Moore, Brian Downey, and Gorham are all interviewed and it's revealed that Robbo's solo on the studio version was originally Gary Moore's. Dare I say that Gary Moore was ovrerated or at least with Thin Lizzy he was.

  • It is revealed? It's not a bloody conspiracy. It's widely known that Gary wrote the solo.

  • widely known???? no on here seemed to know. Either way Robbo fucking nailed it to the wall.

  • Generally, the the commenting populus are retards. Robbo's version is better though.

  • true words

  • are you part of the generally commenting populus then ?

  • One of the greatest frontmen of all time!!!They just dont write like this anymore! You are truly missed Phil , R.I.P bro

  • Its this empty feeling I can't disguise it.....What a line!

  • From Englishman to Irishmen love ya Phil! This song has got me through the hard emotions of me losing my first love. I couldn't explain to her how I felt till I played this track from Live and Dangerous. I didn't get her back but she cried her eyes out to this lovely tune! Thanks mate! RIP!

  • :( wish this version was released

  • This shit is badass. I don't care who you are.

  • Great song..

    Check out "Dont Believe A Word"(Try to find the slow version) It's about the same girl in Phil's life too,,,

  • i luv that version

  • Was the year I was born and I can't get enough of this song.

  • Comment removed

  • I f-ing love this song and Phil, but the sound is total crap!

  • damn this is the Fifth version of this song I know, if you account the other one one youtube w/ this same line-up, the one from CD Live and Dangerous, the one from the 1983 album Live, and the original on the album Nightlife,

    what a beautiful song, represents the best of Thin Lizzy, one of the best band ever

  • From NYC more than best band ever--saw them live in Dublin--THEN KNEW the guy who killled him--heroin---15 years wasn't enough

  • Damn this song is so beautiful!!!

    But hey if u like this, check out Song of the Wind by Santana, the end sounds a lil' bit like it....GREAT SONG

  • OMG!!! I am in awe!

  • Heartbreakingly beautiful!! Thanks for sharing echoes707!!

    Thanks for posting waddockhunt!!

    5****!!!!

  • waddockhunt - respect ....

    total ....

  • damn he sings whit pain!!!!!!!!!!!! hell yeahhhhhh

  • I miss Phill good old music true rock and what a song takes me back in time

  • God we miss Phil , god bless us Irish

  • Truely fucking amazing!!!!

    Made me cry me eyes out and call me mum!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    LOVE PHILL

    PEACE LOVE EMPATHY

  • If this song and Phil's voice doesn't break your heart here, you have to be made of frickin' stone. Can't wait to see his statue in Dublin this fall.

  • great song

  • beautiful, I'm sure Philomena appreciated it a lot.

  • GREAT slow version, thanks

  • he looks soberish their... quite rare :)

  • Buzzard905 I'm Bermudan black and white English born n bred in Belfast,Great Britain!I mean Northern Ireland you Taig!

  • I am a black brazilian and love Thin Lizzy also...

  • up the UVF! Phil Lynott is still a legend even if he was IRA! Talent is talent! Shankill born n bred here!

  • i love this song....pure feeling

  • i love this. where has the emotion gone in rock these days?? timeless.. is this show on album out there? i like this version of the song a lot.

  • you want to listen to the " Live and Dangerous" album it was recorded around 1978 and it features the same 2 guitarists in scott gorham..USA. and brian robertson.SCOTLAND. in my oppinion the best guitarist alongside scot. what a pity he was a bit wayward and was sacked from the band a few years later.

  • i also love Robbo's work with Motorhead on the another perfect day album. he didnt last long with them either.

  • that just says it all. a great rock guitarist like robertson, but a bit wild. and what a step down for one with so much talent.. lizzy to motorhead. mmm

  • Motorhead is not usually as technical with the guitar harmonies and such, but i really like them though. think Robbo brought that unique sound while he was them.

  • Robbo left the band straight after the Live & Dangerous gigs in 78. He was sacked at an earlier point before those gigs but managed to get back in the band.

  • Phil Lynott why.....andy

  • Ooh, is that Robbo's LP Deluxe? P.S. Robbo would blow Sykes off the stage.

  • I'm not sure if he had put the PAF bucker in there yet, I read he did at some point. His hand covers the pickup the whole video. I think it's in there, sounds much fatter even with those mid-70s Marshalls.

  • See around 2:50 in. You can clearly see that the mini-humbuckers are still in. Alot of players routed out those deluxes to fit full size humbuckers back in the day and now regret it.

  • phil was IRA but I am black protestant and love all of lizzy!

  • What the feck are you talking about??Are you trying to justify the fact that Phil was back and Irish over the fact that you are black ano,well,not???

    What a dickhead statement!!

  • Phil was IRA!!!!!!!!!

    Your a f***** moron

  • Phil was one of the best singer/composer of the rock n´roll history...Only that...He was a very good musician...

  • For me, sykes is the next best thing. no, Phil cannot be replaced, never, but for many of the fans, its great to hear the songs live again, with one of the original band members (gorham), and sykes, who is for me the embodyment of 70ies and 80ies rock and metal, of GB.

  • Thin Lizzy Id the shit The Solo for this song Is Fucken Amazing Cant wait to learn it. i wonder if theres tabs for it?

  • I never ever forgot my first show. London '75. I was only an American 14 year old yank way way over my head in hammersmith. Seen Everybody since. Never sounded better.

  • Lizzy is not forgotten! RIP Phil I miss ya! We love thanks for the music and beautiful poetry of your lyrics! You described the pain in this tune. Brings tears to my eys as I relate it to my ex......Thanks mate!

  • What a band love em

  • Amazing song. Whenever i listen this song, i always cry.

  • Wow, I'm amazed that there are any Thin Lizzy fans left out there...let alone any video remnants. Thanks to all those that posted these videos because I never got the chance to see them live. Way cool...

  • This is excellent footage, and the record companies need thier feckin heads examined for not releasing this stuff. Real Lizzy fans the world over would eat this up.

    RIP Phil, love ya dude. Wish I knew ya.

  • There was a time when I only listen Thin Lizzy,well like my life changes every second...Peace and unconditional love...

  • Cant forgive Gary Moore for f*cking up the Phil Lynott tribute gig a couple of years ago. He had Robbo & Gorham play in the concert, but not at the same time, dumbass, thats what everyone wanted. Amazing guitar player, just a pure numpty for doing that. And on this song, Sykes kicks butt. Moore kicked his butt with Parisian Walkways (Sykes played that on the 2004(i think) release of Phil live from Sweden (i think its called).Guess that makes the butt kickin even. Long live Phil & Thin Lizzy

  • Sykes didn't play on so-called classic Lizzy songs. What Gary should haven't done in the concert was to play his solo numbers.

  • Long live Phil! Sykes, your a foolish bastard.

  • those dreams of her create my imagination

    after a night of sleep depravation

    she still makes time feel like it ceases

    as my love fell was into tiny pieces

    Happy Birthday Phil

  • [spelling correction:]

    "quality"

  • I wish the sound quatlity was about 100% better, to match the strength of my beer.

  • wow.....cheers, jimi thanks

  • I love this concert, I love this song, I love Thin Lizzy, I love to phil ..... THE LARGE genius of all time .....¿ of music because it never has been minimal recognition? Does anyone can help me with this question?

    Greetings from Spain to all FANS OF LYNOTT

  • i was at this gig. i was 14.  he was awesome!! the best. and a true dub!

  • i am soooo jealous of you bro!

    id trade any concert ive been to for a thin lizzy show, but i was "born too late"

    i also want to see maiden with dianno!

  • Phil Lynott, the forgotten genius of rock?

  • lynotts hardly the forgotten genius of rock, hes got his own statue for fucks sake. James Dewar had an even better voice and he is the true forgotten genius of rock.

  • wooooow. Thank you for posting this.

  • Anyone can tell me where I can find the best version -with Gary Moore??I think it was 76 yr.

  • wow Thats a meaningful preformance

    Thin lizzy never seem to get old to listen to

    real classy stuff

  • best ever

  • I love Phil!! R.I.P. mate!!

  • 100 ******************************­*******

  • Think outside the box man, i dedicate this song to my mum sometimes just because she likes the song.

  • this is probably the only song ive ever heard, that provokes real emotion form me,

    i love thin lizzy so much,

    gary moore origionally played the solo to the origional like

  • How kick ass is this!!!!!!!Fantastic!!!!!

  • Very moving,soul searing ballad from the 'Nightlife 'album, Gary Moore played lead guitar,and Frankie Miller accompanied Phil on vocals, but the live show with messrs. Gorham, Robertson & others, turned it into a classic

  • he is still the best after all this year!

  • brilliant!

  • Im Still In Love With You Know Who.

  • Just perfect. If you haven't read the biography of Phil by his mum, Philomena, do so - so moving.

  • i remember heart ache to this when i was 13

  • yeh! and still feels the same now ...even worse!

  • nice man!

  • who is that lead guitarist? just like Carlos Santana' Song of the Wind, anyway very amazing rock song.

  • Brian "Robbo" Robertson - brilliant guitarist

  • beautiful!

  • This song touches my heart and always brings tears to my eyes, whenever, where ever.

  • Awesome song. I will forever be a lizzy fan.

  • Please let us bow our heads and say a quick prayer for Phil's mother and family and anyone with a drug problem as well.

    Thank You Phil - RIP

    Philip Parris Lynott (20 August 1949 -- 4 January 1986)

  • thanks for the video-Robbo has a instructional video for guitar wah-wah "still in love with the blues" I think it was 25 bucks look on web you'll find it. Robbo and Scott still seems like best combo with Phil and Brian- great video

  • very frick

  • what a song man

  • robbo change to motörhead

  • robbo was the best!!!

  • We should all know who and what this song is about. RIP, Philip.

  • I love the Robbo era Lizzy. Thanks for sharing,

  • Live is better!!

  • The Live and Dangerous album is of a time that will never return,quality crafted melodic songs,ballads,rockers etc,the seventies was the ERA!!!

  • only song to ever make me cry =(

  • BEAUTIFUL!!a tear jerker to say the least! 9 played it over and over after my wife died!! love you babe and you philo!!

  • Best Lizzy song!

    My absolute favourite one!

  • so gary moore must have pulled the pin in 1978 then because i saw them in brisbane that year with gary moore (check them out doing the cowboy song at the opera house) great stuff.

  • I saw them in 78 with Moore and 76 with Robbo on the Johnny the Fox tour in a small venue in south london..both gigs fantastic...don't know who vote against my honest comment but there we go - I love everything about this band and have done since 1975 when I was 12. I played in a band with Rory's drummer Wilgar for 2 years just before he died.

  • Krunchedup,I wasn't writing against your comment.And I didn't really disagree with you on any technical point.I just expressed a few opinions that might've differed from yours a bit.Sorry if that came over as writing against your comment.
