I wish Shane would have done this with the Dubliners the way they did it. I like this version but the Dubliners version is a bit more traditional.

Love that blastbeat @ 1:31.

i saw the popes years a go and christ shane was drunk and came on an hour late almost a riot

Damn, the captain was pretty upset about losing five jolly men
but the losing of the "whine failwish" was what grieved him the most

I'm a big fan of The pogues and The Popes. Is the nips any good? I have just heard one song with them.
-
if i'm correct it went
the nips
the new republicans (which after 3 gigs became the pogues) -solo work with nick cave -
back to the pogues
pogues fire shane
some work with sinead o' conner, johnny depp in 1991 while performing with the popes -
from 1999 onwards he went back with the pogue's
-
He owns the song right there
-
but before either he was in The Nips!

"now greenland is a barren land, a land that behhh something"
as much as i really do think shane is amazing, i guess i can see understand why the pogues gave him the boot



Im confused, was Shane Mac Gowan in two groups, one called the "pogues" and one the "popes"? Or am I just nuts? Anyway, cool music

Exactly.
First, he was with The Pogues, till 91 if I remember well. From then, he created a band called "Shane MacGowan and The Popes". And today, he's back again with The Pogues. :)
