Fontaines D.C. - Dublin City Sky (Live on KEXP)

[@EzAvABlink]

How the feck can anyone be homesick for the cold, wet and dreary Dublin winters? Well I am. This song captures that indescribable feeling.

[@senanshortt5521]

That sums it up👌🏼💚

[@roughcutguitars]

I'm not even FROM Dublin and so am I.

[@senanshortt5521]

I’m in Birmingham U.K. where the weather is basically the same, just flew back from Dublin last night and I miss the kip already 🙈

[@Hevalicious]

Just a masterpiece this song. Could be about any town/city tbf, just change the name. Makes you reminisce and feel nostalgia, regardless

Everyone saying The Pogues like it's a bad thing The Pogues are great. This is great. No crimes are being committed. Just enjoy it or don't listen. Simple.

[@andyhanrahan]

Saw them play this last night in Dublin. How well theyve done for themselves since this recording. Bualadh bos lads. Found myself in the Foggy dew after the gig. It was a special evening. Incredible show.

[@KyTaundry]

This is actually flawless man, the bands on top form, Grian sounds like a nightingale and whoever mixed it deserves a round of applause.

[@johnpaul7756]

I was playing this song at work today and a guy asked me if it was The Pogues playing and Im like no its Fontaines D.C but pogues is Grians favorite band. Made me smile.

[@irishiron1]

Just Brilliant!!I'm old grew up with The Pogues , My Bloody valentine, these Boyz are are top of the game!!!Wish more people knew of them!!

Fontaines DC is the BEST band I meet in my last 10 years 💘💚🍀 . Long & Happy live to them. This song feels like a Xmas Carol 💞

[@lmcarlon]

These lads are the REAL DEAL. Bless their hearts. Rock on, lads.

[@causticretort]

Holy crap, that's a tune.

[@Linda-uh7ry]

It certainly is

[@AdamGibbs-i4g]

The tune as usual is flawless and the lyrics right? This kind of talent is rare.

[@olliebiddle2278]

The mix on this is beautiful, shout out to the sound engineer who put it together!

[@luciarivera3194]

I was introduced to this band by my Sis Armida, thank you! excellent band!

[@traceymarsh8578]

This is truly sublime.

[@scottbobnelson]

Listening to this album nonstop it’s absolutely class. Can’t wait for the second I get the feeling it could be better

[@TheSimon1100]

Second album is going to be a masterpiece!

[@traceymarsh8578]

It is :-)

[@mesrineqcc.2086]

i love Fontaines DC , like i love the cure and joy division . not to compare but they have the same essence .

[@richardlevin4488]

Meravigliosi, mi riconciliano con un certo tipo di musica: ci vediamo a Padova ad agosto!

[@ilivemylifeforthestarsthat3140]

Sounds heavenly

[@Roadie_TV]

Such a band! REAL MUSIC COMING OUT OF iRELAND!

[@ciarlidelbuono5157]

Se i Pogues avessero vent'anni suonerebbero così. Grandissimo pezzo 🤩

[@ottorinogentile5457]

Pogues live in Wembley Arena il più bel concerto della mia vita.

[@tiayanger1]

One of my fav songs of this great modern post punk álbum

[@franciscojaviermorenogarci7359]

Brutal simplemente. La mejor banda que he escuchado en mucho tiempo. Larga vida a fountaines dc

[@raytracer2651]

I strongly believe this song will be sang alongside the best that luke kelly or the dubliners had to offer.

[@moragdeyes]

Why do they make me want to cry? I mean not with sadness, right?

[@roughcutguitars]

Sheer beauty'll do that.

[@goblinbollocks2838]

I'm just getting into these. Can't stop listening to Jackie down the line, and this song is nice. Do they have many more melodic, tuneful ones? I'm not really into that post punk, The Fall kind of just shouting to thrashing guitars. That's why I'd avoided them thus far cos those were the only type of tunes I'd heard, but would really appreciate if anyone could let me know if there's any more with a bit more of a tune.

[@oisoisoisois6735]

Roy’s Tune and You Said are both slower, less thrashy songs from the fontaines

Pogues x Venus in Fur

[@klausrain111]

Well, you know you're doing something right when you get slagged for no earthly reason by dimwits. Actually, not too many neg comments on this one, but on other songs for sure. "They're not punk! They're posh! His Dublin accent's fake!" All the important stuff!

[@BURGERS13ful]

Richie B great feckin band

[@klausrain111]

@@BURGERS13ful yah, no doubt about it, great fuckin' band! I love listening to them. With a band like this, their second album is gonna be SOOO important, and they know that. I expect they'll become a Household Name then.

[@ericpeterson6766]

I guess those bashers aren't there for the music. maybe they just like shitty stuff to match their lives.

[@callumsutherland2954]

Yeah, apparently if you're not living in a squat and surviving on three cigarettes and a sandwich a day, you can't be a punk! Every punk band since the seventies has had the same shite tossed at them by, as you say, dimwits.

[@shredder9536]

Sounds like the Pogues Sally MacLennane slowed.

[@seanbaite47]

Definitely the melody on the chorus, right enough. Shane did the same in reverse with Burns's 'Curragh of Kildare' - became White City speeded up to 78 rpm

[@angelariley.9963]

Yes, it does. My thoughts exactly.

[@stumckinlay5390]

Half the pogues songs are traditional melodies with some Shane Macgowan lyrical genius interwoven.

[@mckluskysm]

Billy Bragg!!!

[@manusharte1160]

Absolutely what I was thinking!!!

Sounds like the Velvet Underground backing Shane Macgowan more to me.
