I wanted to play this at my own father’s funeral but my own stepsister (you know, ZERO blood relation) refused. Bitch.

I lost my Dad when he was just 55 and I was in my 20s. This song always reminds me of him

FAB :)

I think someone must be slicing an onion near me.

What a song, so moving, absolutely beautiful and so sad , braggs classic

Боже мой, ещё 2 года до моего рождения, а мистер Брэгг выступал в Москве... 😢

Heartbreakingly beautiful

well meaning tedium

My old boyfriend made a lot of fun of me for loving this man. Then he called my dog "lazy." It was enough. 😂

Christ - saw him on this tour in Halifax, Canada - Dunn Theatre - Dalhousie University. Amazing

😢my beautiful amazing son died at Christmas he was only 28 never been in trouble never took drugs. He had a massive heart attack and I am devastated I am disabled and he was my world my everything. The pain is unbearable the loss is like no other. This song and the James blunt song Monsters is what will be played at his funeral which is even more unbearable because I don't have the money to cremate my beautiful boy . So thank you Billy for making such a heart felt song so meaningful and always makes me cry 😢and now my mum is in hospital for end of life care. I would love to hear you make a song for mums. Take care Billy From Richard.

Dad left me 40 years ago Jan 15,1984. This song for all of us who lost our dads, I just turned 21, now 61. Enjoy parents, they're not forever. Thanks Billy

Billy Bragg opened for the Smiths when we saw them!

Goodbye tomatoe

Absolutely fantastic

Beautiful - up there with Loudon Wainwright III's Sometimes I Forget in terms of songs about grieving for a father

Woke Billy preaching to the converted,nothing new there

Never knew he covered this!!! 😜🤘

genuine question....does bill still believe we should take down NATO?

Julie Bindel Riff riff Romford girls braggs song saying Essex girls are easy Is sexist

You don’t Allow racists in Billy braggs tender comrades group So Bragg being a anti semite not allowed in thd group then

This is an incredible upload, Thank you for this. I remember watching it in the early 90s over and over, I never Thought i would see it again. The final song is fits in 2023

It’s 10 years to the minute that my Dad died. I still miss him, wish I could have had more time with him. Love you Dad

Goodbye goodnight to NATO. A lot of political stuff inside his songs.

My dad would have been 84 today, 18yrs gone. I Hope he is sleeping well.

I have always loved this song but it has an extra special place in my heart now that I just lost my sweet dad.

Best kids ever!

Mitte/Ende der 80er war der mal in der damaligen DDR in einem relativ kleinem Provinztheaterund hat ein Konzert gegeben.

Probably his best song

Brilliant upload

My Dad would have turned 97 tomorrow. This song always brings a tear to my eye.

Very pertinent while Putin crushes a sovereign state ☹️

I was there. Would love to see the entire video

Love this! And the lass on piano killed it!

It was in November 1987 to be exact. I was there.

Foreshadowing is my favorite narrative tool. Billy calling for an end to NATO and here we are with WWIII on our doorsteps because Ukraine won't back down from their NATO ambitions. "It's the bombs that will bring us together." :(

The guy's a genius. _"One minute she says she's gone to get the cat in, the next thing I know, she's mumbling in Latin..."_ {:-:-:}

Listen to this song - speechless. With a lump in the throat. Billy Bragg's single most powerful work, imo.

I miss so much that old good times in Moscow… P.s. But i remember it was the 1988 not the 1986.

Appreciated this is so lovely

Chords and vocal vibrations that goosebumps are made of...

Wrong...

He's insufferable.

I'm 21 my dad was diagnosed with lung cancer 3 months ago and he died two weeks ago he was 60 this song hits all the feels and lyrically fits almost perfectly with where I'm at right now

dieser Song katapultiert mich in der ersten Sekunde in die 1980er Jahre in meine Jugend zurück. Ein melancholisches aber sehr schönes Geühl. Für immer vorbei diese rebellische Zeit 80-er Jahre.- ein wunderschöner Song von Billy Bragg,

That was 1993.

Billy at his finest … goosebumps every listen

Wonderful🎸⚒
