If Ever You Go To Dublin Town - Daoirí Farrell

myself and Dessie headed over to Paddy Kavanagh to sing a song for him one Sunday morning a few weeks back before heading to the Dublin Bird Market for a look around.
This song is called 'If Ever you go to Dublin Town". It was written by Patrick Kavanagh about himself and I suppose and I first heard it being sung in its entirety by Pat Goode in his kitchen a few years ago along with a number of other beautiful songs. he makes a lovely cup of tea as well if I remember correctly.
This song was recorded by Ronnie Drew and The Dubliners years ago but I never remembered hearing it as a boy.
I hope you enjoy it and if you do enjoy the music you can head over to my website and have a look at the few albums I recorded.

I'm so sorry for your loss. May God rest his soul 💜 and I hope the fond memories, you and your wife have of him, will be of great comfort to you now, and always 🙏

I'm sorry . 💕

[@Joshua82PDX]

Thanks for the kind words. Ever since my Wife lost her Mother he'd been heartbroken and lost. We're happy that he is finally home with the love of his life, and home with the Lord.

have a huge big small smile on my face here listening thank you great song and story

[@craigphilpot1440]

Just discovered your music. Downloaded both of your albums on Apple Music. You have a wonderful voice and great skill playing your instrument as well. I like how in different versions of the same song you add a little variation. I think that's why it sounds so good, each iteration is you just playing the song, and going with a natural flow, not trying to make it sound like a prior version you did or like anyone else's version of the song. It's hard to explain, but it's like when you have an original conversation with someone, and it was unexpected but leaves you with a warm glow, but then try to relate the same conversation to someone else, it never feels as natural as that first conversation. Like you can't force it. Your music doesn't feel forced, or trying to recreate something you did before, it's just natural and fresh sounding. I hope that makes sense

[@SleepyNoddy]

Such an upbeat version, makes you really.want to dance along. 🥰

[@The_Incredible_Voice]

I just discovered your music. I’m fascinated and can’t stop listening - I bow my head for your incredible voice! My best wishes from Germany!

[@newsflash2691]

Great ould song 🎵 Thanks Daoiri

[@TheBLURBLURBLURBLUR]

This is really good! The usual skill and hypnotic style of Daoiri always makes my day better

[@williegillie5834]

So good to visit your YT Page and get a lift up spiritually, your music does that. I first discovered your talent with the post of the airport delay and you playing with your mates singing The Galway Girl. Thank you. Never stop....

[@kevinell6605]

Spot on ....

[@seanoconnell8577]

Bew-ri-ful !! Went looking for the Ronnie D version to remind meself of the words - this one is the business too. Always felt Kavanagh's ghost most present in the Waterloo Bar on Baggot St. - at least until they vandalised it inside during the Septic Tiger time

[@kittymaher9395]

Just brilliant 😍😍😍

[@korkybb]

Excellent.

How auld Paddy did not get up and dance i just do not know.

[@quinlanmyers9991]

Have you played in Newfoundland? If not you should.

[@cosbard9148]

Auld Dublin nothing like it

[@tomgreene2282]

Indeed....a tolerant city.

[@jldrumm]

The one thumbs down was from Paddy. He didn't seem too impressed with the performance.

[@Razorfish]

Really nice. What is this instrument? It looks like a extra large mandolin.

[@Paul.in.Ireland]

I think it's called a Bouzouki.. which is like a large mandolin but from Greek origin.

[@dunebasher1971]

Can we have a proper studio recording of this version, please?

[@owenbaillon3118]

Tell me that's not Hagrid at 0:29

[@Nole_Johnson]

What are the chords for this lovely tune? I'd love to play it on my own bouzouki!

[@1deadhippie]

please do a tour in the united states.

[@jeremiahoneill642]

Ar fheabhas. Better than the Ronnie Drew version.
