💐💖🇸🇪❤🇨🇮 Thank you, Sue! 🤗 You brought tears in my eyes, when I remember the first and last time I visited that place, myself, back in the spring of 1996, twentysix years ago. When we left Philos resting place we actually came across his mother, Philomena, outside the cemetary and she insisted on that we followed her home and visited her "Philo-museum", that she had arranged in one of her rooms. An absolutely astonishing and memorable afternoon we had with Philomena and her male friend that told us loads of stories and memories about Philo. A milestone in my life, for sure. I wish you all the best and my best regards from Sweden! 🤗🇸🇪❤🇨🇮

Thank you for taking us on your tour. Amazing. Phil was my “guitar hero” as a California boy. My favorite concert was Lizzy at the San Francisco Warfield theatre during the Chinatown tour. 1981? I bumped into Phil about a year before he died while on a British Airways flight LHR-SFO and Phil was sitting a few rows ahead of me. I plucked up the courage to say Hello and soon enough he came back to sit next to me for an hour to chat. It was amazing. He was amazing. Sadly that was when he was in his deep addiction and his frequent trips to the toilet now make sense. So sad. A great man who inspired many people and will never be forgotten. I hope to get to Dublin to visit Philo’s grave one day. Again, thanks for the tour.

I was introduced to Think Lizzy through my then boyfriend (later husband) during a trip 1986-87. He would play their music while we drove overnight. I had only heard the Jailbreak album and quick fell in love with it. I practically wore that cassette tape out until my stereo with the tape still in it was stolen. Later my husband bought me the CD . I really hadn't heard anything from them until about a week and a half ago when a documentary of the band popped up and I watched it. Started finding videos of them on yt and I have been so engrossed in listening to everything I can find and loving every minute of it.

So many good songs; Romeo & the Lonely girl, Dancing in the Moonlight, suicide is a song about a Perry Mason episode entitled “the case of the lovers leap” ; i thought it was fascinating that Phil got the idea to write a song about it after seeing that show; the guitar work on that song is superb! I could go on and on, Cowboy song & Rosalee are great too! Rock in Peace Phil & Mom!

Been a Lizzy fan for 40 years, learned to and was inspired to play guitar when I hear Live and Dangerous. But one thing to be clear, I don’t think his death was a miscarriage of justice. It was a choice to live in the underworld if drugs while looking normal in the surface. His death was tragic in the sense that he left his mom devastated and his young girls without a father. But he could have gotten help at any time. If his children were not enough to cause him to get help then they were better off other than having to see him decline if they were older.

@matts1364 this comment hits hard with me as we lost someone we loved to addiction and mental health, won't get into details here but I will say help is there if they want it. Sometimes it's easier to drown yourself in artificial highs than face the reality and accept the help that's there. If you can't choose your children over the ups and downs of addiction it just means their darkness has won. Having said that, it's easier said than done. 💔

One of a kind. His unique place will never be replaced by anything, anyone, ever. In my opinion, alongside tens of different unique skills he had, his most significant and yet kinda most overlooked side was his ability to sing his way before, through, over, after, I mean ANY WAY ONE COULD with the music. You realize this once you start dumbly thinking that Thin Lizzy songs sound easy to sing and end up realizing that it's actually the opposite once you get going. As a die hard Thin Lizzy fan from Turkey, I wanna thank you a lot for this video. It still saddens me a lot to remember the way he died really.

Thank you for visiting for all of us who can't make it all the way there! Still miss him. Drugs have taken so many talented people way too early. I still listen to "Sarah" on a regular basis - it always lifts me up, such a beautiful song. Just wanted to add that the last name is definitely pronounced "LIE-not". I've been saying it wrong myself for a very long time as well. Thanks again, Sue!
@SerenitySueGraveyards2 жыл бұрын
Thanks Logan, I've never in my life heard it pronounced LIE-not maybe it's an Irish thing I think I'd find it strange to say it like that now. You're more than welcome
@LoganSusnick2 жыл бұрын
@@SerenitySueGraveyards I know, I used to find "lin-not" more natural but it's wrong. Sarah said in an interview that Phil used to say "I'm not some feckin' bird" when correcting people's pronunciation :)

Sarah is my favourite song of theirs,and I've always called him lie-not,I once read he was married to the daughter of leslie crowther,the man who used to do the price is right,and stars in their eyes, if anyone remembers him.its such a lovely grave.i think his song called sarah was made cos his first born daughter was called sarah.🙏
@LoganSusnick2 жыл бұрын
@@christinegill3425 That's correct. Although he has a son, I think Phil was married only once, to Caroline Crowther. She is the mother of both Sarah and Cathleen. He did write "Sarah" for his firstborn daughter. But when two years later Cathleen was born, Caroline had made it clear to him that he had to write another song for Cathleen as well :)

Sue,Thanks. I don’t really like famous grave videos. But yours is so informative and interesting! Thanks for the tribute. I had a lot in common with the man an my livers not what it should be. Somehow by the grace of God I got away from all that stuff. May God bless you and thanks again! I cover a few Lizzy tunes myself only out of respect !. But nothing like Phil and the band ever did. They’re the greatest!!!

Thank you for doing this video. Watching it gave me a sense that I was there alongside in spirit. I first started listening to Thin Lizzy in 1974, upon the release of the “Nightlife” album. Became a fan for life. Saw them many times in concert. Two special memories in particular stand out. The first was a three night stand opening up for Blue Oyster Cult at the Palladium in Manhattan. This was late October of 1978. The opening night, BOC’s equipment van did not make it in time to the venue. BOC played with Thin Lizzy’s gear. It was strange watching Joe Bouchard playing Phil’s mirrored bass. Both bands were wonderful all three nights. The other truly special memory was late December 1980. Lizzy were on their “Chinatown” album tour. They played a ballroom venue in New Jersey called the Crystal Palace. Sadly, and strangely, the concert was sparsely attended. Never could understand why. After the show, Phil and the rest of the guys came to hang out at the bar for a little while. It was a thrill to get to talk to them for about ten minutes or so. Phil could not have been nicer or more courteous to us fans who were still there after the show. As far as songs go, I think “King’s Call” means the most to me. It’s such a beautiful tribute to Elvis Presley. I loved it from the very first time I heard it. And then several years later Phil tragically passed at a young age as well. So sad. RIP Phil. I’ve been listening to your music for over 50 years and I always will.
