[@fastsetinthewest]

I'm of Irish descent living in Texas. I had never heard of Shane until last week after his death. I had heard of The Pogues. I was never into the drug culture or Punk. It does interest me to watch all these videos of how Shane destroyed his body. It occurs when you use alcohol, prescription medicine, and other legal and illegal substances too much. Isn't it interesting how these people juice up to be a genius or a natural talent and are seen with powerfully impressive talent?

[@1twilight9]

Legend. Your passing has brought it all back, and long may it last. RIP Shane

[@djsozzle]

No other celeb muso's death has touched me like Shane's - voice of the immigrants, the disposessed and the misfits. 🙏 There's a wave of collective grief rolling across the world, & it touches all those who have enjoyed his talents. Immortality is yours, Shane ❤

The first time I had ever laid eyes on Shane McGowan was about 10 years ago, or more… My musician friend had put on a video of him, singing the Cover-Tune, Hippie Hippie Shake with the Pogues, I thought such a brilliant man, singing without any teeth, and I loved him ever after.. Rest in peace, dear Shane ✨💖✨x

[@clemep]

RIP Shane, so sad...thought you would never die...one of the greats in songwriting...in a way, you will never die...we'll always remember these songs you gave us....

[@kayeb222]

👍. Not sure about the 'thought you would never die' bit though. It reminds me of Amy Winehouse and Pete Doherty. When they were all at the height of their fame I wouldn't have been shocked to see on the news that any one of them had died young. Obviously we lost one of them young and another outlived most people's expectations by 30-40 years,and the other looks so healthy now he is probably more at risk from dieing from a heart attack and high cholesterol!! Rip Shane and Amy .

R.I.P Shane a true legend.. many many great memories of shane McGowan and the pogues music being played in the pub's especially in the late 80's... 90's and it wasn't rare to have a traditional band playing pogues song's outside the bars on the streets after closing time and playing into the early hours of the morning everyone dancing, drinking and having great craic great time's 🇮🇪 ☘ 🍻🍻 👍

"I gave him the key to the city!" Shane: "It doesn't unlock anything..." How is he still this sharp, I'm sober as can be, and couldn't come up with that

@T Lynch That's kind of always been his way - kind of mumbled and sounds like just a random remark - and then you look closer and it's something tongue in cheek and cheeky.

Shane’s passing has renewed a deep dive in to his music and life for me. For the first time I felt the angst of both sides of my family’s history as immigrants and finally understand my karmic past. Half my family immigrated from Italy and half from the UK. No wonder!!

[@mhaolchatha1]

Love you Shane, great man, great poet, grew up in Croatia listening to his music. Rum Sodomy and the Lash is my favourite, followed by Hell's Ditch and others... I had the privilege to see him live in Zagreb in 1998 with the Popes. Unfortunately missed his Pogues gig here in 2011. I'll never forgive myself for that.

[@annetta7793]

Tears flowing through "Fairy Tale . . ." . . . love Shane forever! Knew him at the London Roxy 1977.

[@charliemagri1669]

Yes, but Shane was a true Saint. It's harder to take his loss. He spoke like a Londoner, sang like an Irish man. His lyrics will live forever.

[@SaraONeillDesign]

A real example of a real person. So touching that he could enjoy the accolades before he passed. Vanity would keep most from appearing in public when their health is declining.

[@Lemmi7810]

Shane reminds me of my Grandfather who died 1 year ago in the night from 6tg to 7th of December in 2022. He was sick and couldn't walk. He was 69. He drank, he smoked, he was stubborn, lonly and sad. And I'm the same. May they rest in peace.

every pub in manchester was singing in the 80s with irish music, i missed many a monday for work.

[@ROOKTABULA]

I remember pulling over to a roadside stop next to a lake and making my wife join me for a goofy dance, around the car, to "Fiesta" which I cranked on my car stereo as people stared, driving by. She was so embarrassed but I'll never forget the laughs and her smiling. Lost her to a car wreck only a few years later. Hurts when the song comes on and that pain battles with the warm remembrances that try to put a smile on my face.

@The Hermit My thoughts exactly. If anyone can do Shane's legacy justice it will be Julien Temple. Loved the Wilco Johnson documentary. Have you seen the two documentaries he made about Ray and Dave Davies? Superb. Cheers.

@The Hermit The Kinks are essential. Their story is interesting, a bit different to the usual bands from that era because of the sibling rivalry between the Davies brothers. I hope you find a copy of the documentaries by Julien Temple. Cheers.

But we still love him, and are happy to see him. When you’re a bit older yourself, you might have a different perspective. I remember watching Shane being interviewed by Frank Skinner (I think), and the interviewer seemed to be making fun of him, but Jaysus, I couldn’t stop laughing every time Shane laughed and the wind whistled through his teeth, and the whole thing was totally cringeworthy, and I felt embarrassed to be laughing, and I felt sad to see my hero brought so low. But the last time I watched it a couple of years ago, I was thinking, oh, I am so glad this is available on KZbin and didn’t Shane look so fine and youthful in spite of the gaps where teeth once were.
