  • Qué lindas palabras les dijo JFK en aquella ocasión!! Muy hermosas las imágenes y la canción es preciosa!!

    Un saludo desde México. Yo no tengo ningún familiar irlandés, pero me gusta mucho ese país. No sé, a lo mejor en otra vida viví ahí.

  • Gracias Maria....Although I live in Texas and attempt to converse in Spanish often, you remind me how little I know. I did however understand your comment and appreciate your thoughts. I also think if you look hard enough, you'll find an Irishman in the family tree

  • Brilliant and says it all about how a lot of people feel about Ireland, inc me !

  • Thank you. As an Irish American New Yorker, I've come to realize that you can feel the same way even if you are a ferry boat or an ocean liners distance away

  • What about Ronald Reagan? He was Irish American. There were a few others too, but I think JFK is maybe remembered as the first Roman Catholic president. His words in this video certainly reflect my own longing for Ireland.

  • Love your song. Dispite the title my song "Don't Ever Go to Ireland," we are both saying the same.

  • Just came back to the U.S. from Ireland, again I have left all of my family there and each time I leave it hurts more. I left Ireland 16 years ago but it has never left me.

  • @frangill46 your a new yorker can you tell me where the irish community live in new york because im thinking of going over there to live soon
