INTERVIEW WITH PHIL LYNOTT OF THIN LIZZY

[@bioanne5762]

that voice he was so beautiful.

[@LRBerry]

A voice like warm honey.

[@lilysmiles3195]

Truly beautiful and unforgettable man. His death will always haunt me. I feel so much love for him

[@paulpetrie2791]

Me too

[@grazynaprosc975]

Phil Lynott a very talented wise and modest man. He wrote and composed beautiful songs. With his beautiful, strong voice he was able to sing in a variety of musical styles. He loved his country , loved people but for some reason he was unhappy . Although he tried to hide it , there was sadness in his eyes , sadness in his voice. He was more lively on stage seeing his fans. I love Philip's voice and i'm very sorry i couldn't be at his concerts but those such were times . Phil Lynott is legend a beautiful legend is still alive in our hearts. We miss you Phil . ♥️🎶🎸

[@jamesbradshaw3389]

I full agree with every word that you said, and thank you.

[@sbphillips177]

So we'll put..sucks that he's gone..we missed alot of music..but in the same breath have to be grateful for what he gave

[@FredPena-rd5cf]

As much as i like Phil he wasnt wise. Nor was he singing over a braod range of musical styles. He was pretty limited as a singer. And his lack of wisdom had him writing alot of tirds that didnt chart or get radio play. And his dalliance with skag was a fools choice. Sadly he lost it all because of it.

[@jamesbradshaw3389]

This broke Phil's heart, All that was needed some time for the boys and Phil to heal themselves, get off the hard stuff it was never any good. Phil drove himself into the ground and gave too much of himself to others and did not keep enough for himself. Phil was a born rocker and Thin Lizzy was the very best rocking band in this world. God bless you Phil with many gifts but you left us to soon

[@criddycriddy]

He seemed a beautiful soul, very little ego visible for sure. Amazing talent, sure glad I found His music 🎵Thank you Phil ... 🌱

[@LRD113]

Phil was is a down to earth human I’ve listened to his music since 1974 when I first saw Thin Lizzy live Liseberg Gothenburg

[@alanfletcher9698]

Very Rare to see a Man with so much Chrisma . Bless Phil Lynott. What a Diamond

[@tribalflute3895]

A fan since 76. When I went to school for music in LA on the performance stage I would do Thin Lizzy tunes. The guys from Europe would lose their minds! And friends were made. Thank you Philip Paris... Look at this video. 25,000 views between 2021 and 2024 and growing. I would say that he is still an influence on this planet. Thanks for posting this! And to all my four string friends to the low end in Europe, Chow baby!

[@grahamgray2421]

The man was incredible! He wrote some of the best rock songs ever and a nice man!!! Rip sir

[@jamesgreene4811]

He sure was Sir a true Gentleman of Rock and a true Legend that left us to soon miss Phil everyday 💯best wishes from the heart of Ireland 🇮🇪☘️

Lyrical Genius in the Edgar Allan Poe Jimi Hendrix Bob Dylan Bob mode. Very much underrated Man Here.

[@frankhinterstocker7265]

I named my son after him. Another Philip Parris^^. Gladly saw them live once, back in the day @ Monsters Of Rock. What a band, what a voice. Truly great.

[@lamnag01]

A beautiful soul@@martintramil8084

[@ThinLlZZY]

He just seems so sad and defeated here. I understand it, Lizzy were ending, he had just finished performing, and it was a huge thing for him. You'd just want to reach out and give that man a hug and just say thank you. I hope he really knew how much he was (and still is) loved by people.

[@mshort76]

Phil..such a beautiful man and soul.

Wow...brings tears to my eyes 🖤🍀

[@tanyachetcuti5608]

😢😢😢 such a beautiful soulful man, but his eyes were tinged with sorrow and sadness… and every time I hear “old school” and “still in love with you”… it’s like his pain is felt all over again. May you rest in eternal peace now with the mother who loved you so much and was so proud of you, You were special, You are missed all these years later and you always will be ❤

[@punchestown82]

Thanks for this. Love finding new Phil material! He's always so shy off-stage. So sorely missed.

[@Nk-zd3xj]

[@PHILGYPSYBLUESCLARK]

A sad time. So much respect for this man. Bumped into him twice, impressive. Saw the Greedy Bastards in Camden in 78 I think it was, saw Lizzy twice and was at the post gig party in Kew after the first ill fated Grand Slam gig at the Marquee. Such an amazing legacy.

[@Bone74838]

You saw GrandSlam live?

[@PHILGYPSYBLUESCLARK]

@@Bone74838 I was on bass in a band called Rogue Male at the time, we missed the gig but went back to Phil's house in Kew for the post gig party.

[@kirstenrichards8558]

Phil going into politics, now that would have been interesting!😁 And him doing a dance record would have been worth a listen.

[@chris623able]

Check out the song break down he did with junior its actually really good! You can find it on KZbin he also did he fell like a soldier with junior and time theyre both very good songs! I actually messaged junior on Instagram about the songs he said they never got released due to some business stuff with a record company or something but theyre class songs check em out youll enjoy them

Philip Parris Lynott (West Bromwich, Inglaterra, 20 de agosto de 1949-Salisbury, Inglaterra, 4 de enero de 1986) fue un cantante, instrumentista y compositor irlandés, conocido por ser el bajista, cantante principal, compositor, líder y fundador del grupo de rock irlandés Thin Lizzy.

Million dollar question. Hoping so.

That would be something! As a kid the legend was that there was also a video of the life/live album (we know now there isn't) but how cool would that be? Especially when all the ex Lizzys start appearing on stage!!!

How he was excluded from Live Aid crushed him. Geldof can suck it.

In retrospect, that might have been a blessing in disguise, since live aid funded and dictator. Not brought food to the needy.

I always. Thought Phil Lynott. Was. Gorgeous and. Handsome. XX

[@RSBurgener]

If he had lived, Thin Lizzy would've absolutely had a resurgence. Of course he took it hard, who wouldn't? But they could've found the long view. Of course the music would return, it just needed some time for people to rediscover it.

[@jeremiahwise8040]

People talk about this inner sadness in him. Could it be people didn't give him his proper credit or have a willingness to understand him? Im certain most of his faults a lot them anyways were do his disposition, not his actual true character. Shame for those that had to know the worst of him im sure he didn't mean for it to be that way. Unfortunately i cant speak on Philips behalf. I know that would bother me but after so much time you build up emotional calluses and find an emotional crutch like alcohol or drugs. We love you always Philip you are the best musician of our time. Sacred and sentimental to my heart anyways.
