[@paullee2177]

I have lost count at how many times I have watched this movie. Also just about wore out the CD sound track. I'm going on 76 and still rocking!

[@beanmchne]

I've lost count of how many times I've lost count at how many times I've watched the commitments:) it's almost an illness:)

[@conradsaul4680]

Me too, and I'm 74, twat a movie

[@battmanjenkins7951]

Soul brothers, soul. I'm 12 and I love it

[@davejarratt7945]

You took the words right of my mouth there Paul. That music is right in my groove: was then and still is today!!

[@rossella8595]

It was 1991🥰

[@stevensendor7216]

Holy sh*t- that voice was real!! And he STILL has it!!!!

[@battmanjenkins7951]

That's funny. His hair was fake lol

[@crazymankelly]

100%

[@stop-terrorists]

Those of you still watching this 31 years after the fact are the legends that made this happen! Without the viewership and the fans that supported this effort, this wonderful music would have never been made.

[@MrAlan0151]

Nothing better than the Commitments film and music, Masterpiece.

[@hellochannel6344]

Andrew was singing his guts out! There's nothing like a good horn section with a damn baritone sax! This is soul!!!

[@sebastianvonnebenan5260]

I absolutly agree...

[@onepunchgeorge9251]

Your right my friend! I've sang in front of 10 peice. Bands 3 backup singers and a Horn section. Nothing like it!😎

[@hellochannel6344]

@@onepunchgeorge9251 👍👍😉

[@davidhoward2487]

Channeling Joe Cocker, God rest his soul..Andrew kills it!

[@johnthomas4775]

What a frickin' awesome band! I've been hooked since the movie was popular.

[@paulhubble964]

great to see the original band members together after all these years

[@nikcrosina]

you know they didn't play the music on the movie though? Or at least not all of them songs.

[@pearubu]

@@nikcrosina From the Irish Times: "Alan Parker had originally hoped to land none other than Van Morrison himself for the role of the film’s trumpet player Joey “The Lips” Fagan-but the role eventually went to stage actor Johnny Murphy instead. Murphy also happened to be the only member of the cast to not play their own instruments." So, they were all talented singers and musicians and had never acted, except for Johnny Murphy, who had acted but didn't play an instrument.

[@mccart31]

I just watched this movie again , while running on my tred mill , I've seen it at least 30 times and still laugh all the way threw it ... The whole cast are brilliantly talented .... I hope my video tape of this great movie , never Wares out ! # love The Commitments !

[@kc5tng]

This is one of my favorite bands to listen to on KZbin.

[@JulieWallis1963]

oh my days!! Andrew Strong is Dara O'Briain! ! this guy is a fabulous singer, he really does justice to these classic tunes.

[@suasleat]

Yes! he's the spit!

[@davidhoward2487]

@@suasleat Love child? lol

[@SunshineMix101]

No doubt about it, the film was brilliant and the soundtrack even better. It stands as a credible album of its own accord. To me this vid' can be summed up in one word - fun. Everyone is clearly enjoying themselves - 'wish I could have been there!

[@1konyw]

I am so happy to have discovered them again. They are fabulous. He rocks !!!!

[@331SVTCobra]

Imelda is lookin deadly!

[@arronjoseph1212]

Lifting the hearts and soul of I say soul twice of Dublin from the Us may the sweet lord bless you brother rabbit

[@irishgrl]

This is lovely! I wore out my vhs tape & one dvd I loved the movie that much!

[@bobbillings]

Holy shit, this band from the movie is still rocking 26 years later??? Please come to Chicago. Would love to see the Brunette backup singer too, always had a crush on her back then.

[@BCS1105]

I think that the original cast coming back together to perform was a one night only kind of thing. They didn’t tour together I don’t believe.

[@user-kx2jz2go2d]

Joey the lips beat you to it mate 😜

[@macminded2010]

we all did

[@jleecline8845]

American soul alive in Ireland. Wilson lives in happiness and joy!!!

[@stevencooper787]

I'm "only" 68 y.o., but the Commitments rock my old woolly socks off !

[@mecklenburggovan7311]

Tell u this, I watched the commitments in HK around 1992..and decided to go to Ireland to study/live/die...Even after all these years I found this movie and soul musicians influenced me the most §§§§§

[@ariellehart6632]

They are still awesome group!! So glad that they got together again on 03/19/2011!!

[@pimalove6767]

THE 1ST TIME I SAW THE MOVIE I FELL IN LOVE WITH IT, WISH I COULD OF SEE THE CONCERT. I HAVE A COPY OF THE MOVIE THAT I WILL WATCH AS LONG FOR YEARS TO COME. THE MUSIC & THE MOVIE WILL NEVER GET OLD

[@mangeldeth74]

What fond memories COMMITMENTS, congratulations and I hope they continue longer together.

[@TheAlphaBette]

I love y'all so much. From a northeast Springfielder. Bring it home.

[@lacrimaererum6878]

One of the world's biggest tragedies is how Andrew Strong never did anything with his movie career. I want more of that voice!

[@lovinstrong1]

I have loved this man for 20 yrs. Andrew Strong rules. That voice and those dimples do it for me.

[@jamesmccormick211]

He's singing even better here than he did as a younger man.

[@cilcullen129]

They’ve still got it!!! Fantastic!

[@itiswhatitaintanditaintwha1427]

Awesome band. Awesome movie. You don't have to be Irish to enjoy this!

[@oakvue45]

We could not believe how good this movie and the music was...My wife and I were in a band called Jubilee....down along the Snake...from Weiser to Jordan Valley. And it was a lot like this movie...Our signature piece was Snowbird...believe It!

[@jenjojenjo2122]

I was there that night they were fantastic! But sorely missing Maria Doyle Kennedy

[@DaveCrokaert]

Yeh best singer of the females. Love her solo albums btw

[@luc137]

[@frederickgallant8051]

I SPY WITH MY LITTLE EYE. (1) Robert Arkins (Jimmy Rabbitte) (2) Dick Massey (Billy Mooney) (3) Bronagh Gallagher (Bernie McGloughlin) (4) Angeline Ball (Imelda Quirke) (5) Andrew Strong (Deco Cuffe) (6) Dave Finnegan (Mickaw Wallace) (7) Michael Aherne (Steven Clifford) (8) Felim Gormley (Dean Fay) (9) Glen Hansard (Outspan Foster) and (10) The guy that played the bass player in the movie can be seen playing guitar on stage right. The only two that are missing are Johnny Murphy (Joey the Lips Fagan) and Natalie Murphy. Sadly Johnny Murphy had left us by then. FRED GALLANT

@malelion: Maria Doyle Kennedy went on to become Catherine of Aragon on Showtime's hit historical drama, "The Tudors" from 2007 to 2010. She did a magnificent job portraying the falledn Queen of England.
