Old irish people today act so uo their a**es about how things were in their day. No mental health conditions or drug addiction they claim. When in reality a huge chunk of the population had depression and anxiety and were surviving only as functional alcoholics. John B Keane is in his early to mid 50s here ... the man looks 75. If ever you needed proof of how drug addiction ages you lol. Literally so addicted he was still in withdrawal 3 days after trying to quit and was angry and banging around, try to substitute alcohol with chocolate and other addictive snacks. Poor man clearly was a genuine severe alcoholic and his wife totally blind to it. Alcoholism was just so normalised in ireland back then. They couldn't even see they were drug addicts. Seems every family those days had alcoholics in them. Then again if I had to live in 1970s or 1980s ireland I'd probably fall into drug addiction the place was so backwards and miserable otherwise lol

Amazing 😍

This lady feels and lives every note that comes from her breath. The level of emotion is captivating. I could never tire from listening to her singing this beautiful song. The artist playing the guitar clearly has grasped all she requires to carry it through and deliver it in the state of perfection it arrives. The arrangement is brilliant. Ron Jones.

Cork were absolutely robbed 😂

The immovable Irish tradition! Powerful stuff!

Best version ever! Ar aghaidh le The Cheiftains agus Laurence, Seamus agus Dáithí!

💚🇮🇪

If you can, check out the McPeake Family's version of this, from the 1960's.

I named my baby after her. My baby is 30 this year, the song was one of my mom's favourite. Her nick name was Maggie, there is a love story behind it...Maura O'Connell Is beautiful all the way.

SIMPLEMENTE !!SENSACIONAL¡¡ LLEGA AL CORAZÓN.

Probably 10 years ago I heard and really fell in love with Alias Acoustic Band's/Ron Kavanah's version of The Wind That Shakes the Barley. I could hear things in the singing that I hadnt heard before, but didnt really dig into the how and why of it. Fast forward 8 years or so and youtube reccomended me Radie Peat's version of Liam Wheldon's Dark Horse on the Wind, and once again I immediately fell in love with that recording, and heard those strange but sublime and beautiful things in her style of singing. Forward once again to yesterday, and I was messing around with ChatGPT, asking it questions that I thought it might either get stumped on or maybe I would learn sonething, which I did. The robot mentioned "the Sean-Nos tradition", and that is what those songs and this one can be described by, its where they came from, its the how and why. So it took 10 years or so but finally I know what this divine style of singing is actually called, and for that I am grateful. This performance here is just as stunning. I am constantly in awe of how these kinds of singers can modulate their pitch the way an instrument with discreet intervals (like guitar or piano) can do when improvising. I learned to sing and play guitar based music when I was just a dumb kid, and when I try to sing with this level of embellishment and ornamentation, it makes me realize how much skill it takes.

Of course, the ancient Gaels (Gaedhals) came from the Iberian peninsula.

love this....always makes me cry in a good way,

Without an irish accent this wouldn't be possible to justify perfectly.

Paddy is phantastic

🌞🌹💗🕯️🙏

This is from 2000, not 1990.

Feckin love it, great stuff boys.

i had no idea this was a song other people knew i remember doing this in bua na cainte

My wedding ring is a claddagh ring❤️🎵❤️

This is the most country thing I've ever seen😂

Does this count as country dancing? Not everyone in a community can step like that, or “battering”, which I think it’s called. Surely community dancing should be simple so that any newcomer of any age can just join in.

Wicked! She looks like Justin Trudeau.

God bless you Sir and Ma'am.

You always bring a smile to my face. 🤗

Hupp!!❤

Fabulous

Donal Murphy is fantastic and I believe these are slides. 😊

Vad betyder refrängen?

Liffey banks?

Thank you

so beautiful

It’s lovely seeing traditional dance steps like cross keys that I never see nowadays in any reels, slip jigs and so on, just stiff legs and prancing around.

One of the best pieces of music I’ve ever heard

Sad indeed that they turned from the storyteller to the radio. My Dad was a great storyteller. Most 20 stories high 😂 and he could take in anyone. Thanks for the upload listening.
