  • @rickwhv So true. This song has been around for centuries and performed by countless atrists,

    Metallica just happen to be one of them, most likely they first heard the Thin Lizzy version and covered that. That said, as Metalica always does with covers they made it sound like an original Metallica song. Great song no matter who is playing it. The Irish have got soul!

  • Sorry Metallica but this version is better.

  • Jackeen is a mildly pejorative term for someone from Dublin, Ireland. The Oxford English Dictionary defines it as "A contemptuous designation for a self-assertive worthless fellow," citing the earliest documented use from the year 1840.

    Derivation and meaning Today, Jackeen is often used to describe Dublin GAA players and supporters. The term has also been shortened to "Jack" or the plural "Jacks" by Dublin fans as a way to refer to themselves.

  • It should Cork and Kerry Mountains. Why is Cork left out?

  • @Th3M1racl3 Its Stationary Willberries!

  • @Th3M1racl3 its not The Dubliners!No way!

  • love this version, been trying to find this all day but all I got is big bands singing it, but this is the best version...simple...sweet... and maybe with a drink.

    the way it was meant to be sung :P

  • Yep MISSLD125, great funeral song! Lets people recall you were a raver and a groover, as well as someone who has passed away! Celebrate yer life, I reckon and if you enjoy this melody enough to even consider it at your funeral, then it more than deserves its place. Plus, it makes ya want ta dance a jig! What could be wrong with that?! Peace and love, Mitch
