  • Beautifully sung. One of my fav ever songs.so sad.

  • at our rememberance service, a girl sung this with acoustic accompament and there wasn't a dry eye in the room.

    he is a true hero<3 x

  • my granda sam wrote this song and mary and flossie both sing it beautifully

  • Intimate, sensitive, beautifully rendered, a great testament to John Condon and all the young men tragically lost in "The Great War," whose deaths only show that wars are great only in terms of volume of lives sacrificed and in no other sense. Flossie Malavialle is an artist of exquisite talent.

  • I agree with MrBrentford100. Mary Dillon's version is quite breathy ("head-singing" rather than "body-singing"?) and consequently there's not much emotion in it. This version of Flossie's carries a lot more emotion, IMO. Love it.

  • i was there hear her sing this song under d menin gate i had a great uncle die in this war and im from d south of ireland

  • This is a wonderful version, I think its better than Mary Dillon,s version.

    Shame John Condon wasn't really 14 though as proved by the 1911 irish Census.

  • Beautiful version of this song. Wish I was so emotive as a singer

  • Im still squeezing your arm baby, I love you Kevin xx

  • sam starrett wrote it and mary dillons version is on his tribute album,if u give me your email address i can get a copy and send it on to u
