And The Pogues! 👌🏼

[@JackShaheen-dy2el]

YES the Pogues. You can definitely tell they are backing Steve.

[@josephlemko3027]

One of Steve Earle's best songs.

[@tomkuz52]

I’m with you on that one

[@josephlemko3027]

​​@@tomkuz52:Great to hear from a fan of this great singer-songwriter. I have been a fan of Steve Earle since I first heard "Copperhead Road" on the local rock radio station back in the 1980s.

Someone once told me that a man that’s seen battle will go to sleep praying for peace!

[@tomkuz52]

You are so right. Very few understand that kind of hell.

[@Horatio1886build]

Lyrics are sort of flowing mix I guess. Some of the historical recreations are pretty emotional for those of us whose parents uncles and neighbors served in those conflicts. Nice touch ending with the current generation. Thanks to all, especially those who paid a high price for all of us in the US and round world. Now looks like we better get our house in order.

[@tomkuz52]

Thank you, John. I appreciate your comments. You are spot on about how it was and how it looks like it’s going to be. I hope things are going your way and have a good day.

[@myfyrmadocjones]

Steve Earle and The Pogues, a brilliant combo.

[@tomkuz52]

I like their take on whiskey in the jar

[@myfyrmadocjones]

@@tomkuz52 Have you heard the version of whiskey in the jar by Thin Lizzy?

[@tomkuz52]

Yes, I have but my absolute favorite is the version by Metallica. I especially enjoy their video.

[@myfyrmadocjones]

@@tomkuz52 not bad but a decent video!

[@dumsta5]

R.I.P. Shane

[@shawnclare-nb1up]

There's a great doc on the making of this spirited masterpiece w the pogues!

sweet video man

[@tomkuz52]

Thank you, I appreciate it. This is what I do to kill the time before it kills me.

[@kevinsullivan2933]

My uncle Johnny Sullivan was in the Korean War in the Navy

[@tomkuz52]

I know it was a rough time. I came very close to getting drafted. My dad served in the Navy in the Pacific during World War II.

[@janehill9764]

where's the p-47 thunderbolt.

[@victorwaddell6530]

In museums , sometimes flying in Air Shows . Her successor , the A10 Warthog is still in service .

[@janehill9764]

@Steve Earle mr. earle, i loove your music. in fact, i had the fantastic honor of being in the front row and getting a guitar pick from you when you played at the masonic temple in toronto back in the late eighties, early nineties.... yeah, i reached up to shake your hand and you gave me your guitar pick!! the best moment of my life as a music fan and the fan of a star....

[@CEOkiller]

No P-47’s were filmed in the making of this video…

[@tomkuz52]

Yes, I am aware. They were hard to come by. I was just trying to do something to honor those who have served and died for the country. Hope you have a good day.

[@mikek4288]

11th cav thanks you for the video

[@tomkuz52]

You are most welcome and thank you for your service.

[@BareGrillz]

my P47 is a pretty good ship...

[@tomkuz52]

I didn’t quite get there. The highest I got was a Cessna P210

[@BareGrillz]

@@tomkuz52 single seaters

[@tomkuz52]

Yes, sir

[@ScottTerry24]

Song lyrics makes no sense. If his granddad served in WW2 and married a woman and came home and he’s coming back from Vietnam and even if it was in 1975 that’s only 30 years since his granddad came back from the war in England.

[@tomkuz52]

Well, aren’t you a plethora of information?

[@teddysaginaw9101]

​@@tomkuz52lol

[@ST-ld2wz]

That's a P-40, not a P-47

[@janehill9764]

you are right. it's a p-40. yeah...listen to the lyrics:'my p-47 is a pretty good ship, she took a round comin cross the channel last trip..' Btw, the p-40 never flew operations out of england. she cruised the north african skies as the RAF kittyhawk and the pacfic theatre as the war hawk, or commonly, the p-40 Flying Tiger. she might also have been seen in italy but was replaced there by the p-51A mustang and the p-51 B mustang..

[@SEAPanel]

Close enough for government work and poetry.

[@JackShaheen-dy2el]

WHO cares??? Not the point of this song
