Clancy Bros. & Tommy Makem are part of the 'greatest generation' of Irish music, I only wish I got the chance to see their performance live, banter and all. Thank you for ensuring their work lives on by posting it here.

Lenardodivinci, never fear, folk music is still here! There are many local folk clubs around and plenty of younger performers participating. In my humble opinion it is only a matter of time until there is a full revival. Popular music is beginning to reflect this with the emergence of acts like Seasick Steve & Mumford & Sons.

One person lost touch with their inner piratey self ;)

This is really excellent! To me this version sounds much like it must have when sailors actually sang it.

@fordtruxdad I wasn't aware that there were other versions of santy anno until I heard from other viewers of their thoughts and comparisons. I like the Clancy Bros and Tommy's version the best and I totally agree that the song was sung as it would have been aboard ship.

@Chomuno I didn't view your comments as complaints. It seemed to me that you were expressing how deeply the music affects you. It would be nice to have a revival of folk music. Most children here in the U.S. of A., don't appreciate this kind of music. I'm glad that you do, and that you are so young and feel the way you do about artists like The Clancy Bros and Tommy Makem.
