Carrickfergus is the song known as "The Water is Wide," I think--it's also beautiful, simple, and very sad so I can see how it might be thought of in the same vein as this one.
I once came upon a tiny village, as I was walking up over a hill in Burgundy. Seeing the small stone buildings with tiny plumes of smoke coming from their chimneys made me think of this song.
No conozco el origen de esta canción, ni he escuchado nunca otra versión diferente a esta. Solo sé que es una extraordinaria interpretación y voz del gran JOE DASSIN. Bellísima, bellísima. Gracias stanleypower
Cette une reprise de "Carrickfergus" une chanson du folklore irlandais. L'originale est tellement plus belle. Surtout la version de Boardwalk Empire!

Sorry mate!.
This is an old Irish song, call Carrickfergus
Wrote in the 19th century in Gaelic, English words where add latter.
I wish I was in Carrickfergus, only for night in Ballygran.
aunque tengo que decir que el viejo Joe hace una hermosa adaptacion.

Sorry but I'm from Quebec and I can tell that it's far from an old irish song! Joe Dassin was a very popular singer when my mom was young.
