  • Dis song is pure magic!!! Declan is a true legend!!! How any o'you eegits can say Groban is better I just don't know!!! Declan rules!!!

  • So long as I've made my point I don't care!!! Declan can do a better fuckin' job dan Josh wit' his fuckin' hands tied behind his back!!!!

  • 3 People shouldn't exist!!!!

  • josh groban..great singer.. but!! there are only a few singers who put those hairs on the back of your neck and you will know you will have that feeling when they sing.. foreveeeer!! ;)

  • I didn't mean to offend anyone, but I have a right to like sth or not. I don't question his talent, I just have another preference. If you said you didn't like Josh Groban, that's totally fine. We are all different and like different things/voices/interpretations. It is a beautiful song, though, that Declan wrote:)

  • @Bogusiajm Of corse you're entitled t'like Groban's version more dan O'Rourke's if dat's d'way ye fuckin' feel!!!! It's just yer fuckin' opinion!!!! On'y ting is if ye do like Groban's version better dan You're fuckin' misguided!!!!!

  • @Bogusiajm You ARE entitled to your opinion, don't mind him. However, I just went and listened to Grobans version, and my opinion is that you are wholly wrong in your assertion. Groban's version is shit, IMO. The soul is lost from it and it doesn't compare in the least to the original.

  • How can you compare this version to Josh Groban's. Josh much better! I appreciate that he may have written this song, but Josh does it justice. {Perhaps it is just this video, but really no comparison.

  • @BBH101 Fuck off will ye, you just don't like Irish performers you narrow-minded twat!!!!

  • @TheDorancd Wow, well not surprised at your language. You have every right to love this guy and his version. Please be clear, their style's are very different. I do appreciate how he does this song. It is very intimate and pleasant. But, no need to cruel. Saw Groban sing this a few nights ago, and they are just

    different performers. How boring if they were all the same!

  • @BBH101 You're damn right I have d'fuckin' right t'love dis version!!! I have every fuckin' right t'be fuckin' angry when I hear someone belittle a treasured irish singer-songwriter an' performer!!!! It's all plain an' fuckin' simple; he wrote it so he knows how t'perform it propperly, Groban on'y scrapes d'fuckin' bottom!!! You come ont' dis page an' fuckin' say "How can you compare this version to Josh Groban's. Josh much better!" Dat's fuckin' belittlement!!!! Totally fuckin' uncalled for!!!!

  • @TheDorancd Take your Meds : ). Seriously dude, you have a problem understanding what anyone has to say. You distort everything. Later asshole!

  • @BBH101 I don't have any fuckin' problems, you tink because I'm Irish my understandin' o'd'English language is fuckin' warped??? I know what you're fuckin' tryin' t'fuckin' say an' I'm able t'read between d'fuckin' lines an' spot d'derogatory connotations ye try t'fuckin' conceal in yer mindless fuckin' comments!!!! Try callin' me a fuckin' "Asshole" t'my face!!!

  • @BBH101 Thanks! I agree and this is my last comment about it, because that guy has no idea about at least semi-intelligent discussion. Happy listening everyone.

  • @Bogusiajm Fuckin' say dat t'my face, ye weed!!!

  • @Bogusiajm An' I am not unintelligent so fuck off!!!! I'll bet I'm fuckin' smarter dan you!!!!

  • Daclan wrote a great song, but, no offense, I don't like it how he sings it. Josh sooooo much better!

  • @Bogusiajm You've got to be taking the proverbial. This is a live version. He's got a bur in his voice, a working musician and such heart. This is probably one of the best love songs ever written.

  • @Bogusiajm I no nothing about Declan, but I love the song and give him credit for the song (he wrote it, right?) but I do prefer Josh's interpretation:)

  • @Bogusiajm How can you make a statement like dat an' expect not t'offend people?? O'Rourke can't help d'way he sings!!!! How would you fuckin' like it if someone said Bob Dylan's songs are performed much better by anodder artist??? It's not fuckin' fair is it???

  • I have listened to both Josh and Declan and they are both wonderful in their individual way of Interpreting this beautiful song which was written by Declan! Thank you to both of them for their awesome talent! Beautiful souls!

  • chant???

  • I want to hear Stephen Merritt cover this one.

  • The Josh groban version is so much better...Josh can hit every note in this song perfectly .

  • @Nhaknaix9Lagirdam And yet, Declan is a working musician who wrote this song. His voice is off in this recording but you need to listen to the original recording.

  • @Nhaknaix9Lagirdam Dis song wouldn't fuckin' exist if it weren't for O'Rourke!!!! No way is Groban's version better dan O'Rourke's!!!! Havin' fuckin' written d'song himself lyric for lyric he knows how t'fuckin' sing it d'right fuckin' way, Groban on'y fuckin' scrapes d'fuckin' bottom!!!!

  • ne chance of anyone knowing the tabs or chords to this song??

    wb please!! I adore this song, i really do :')

    xxx

  • Superb.

  • I have just seen him yesterday in Ennis. What an amazing voice and beautiful lyrics. Incredible.

  • Such a Magical Song!

    Declan O' Rourke really knows how to write songs, he's a dreamer and knows how to paint the perfect picture!

  • Completely agreed. He, along with Glen Hansard, are the reasons I came to Ireland. You all need to build some statues or something to honor these gods!
