The Dubliners - When Margaret Was Eleven

[@joeobeacain8087]

Many thanks Ronnie---I heard this old song many years ago---and it's thanks to KZbin that they have preserved this wonderful song---it represents so much emotion about the two world wars ande also Ronnie Drew as an artist. In my opinion he was the best of the Dubliner

R.I.P Ronnie. Another 1 of your greats.

[@nellypringle2875]

A fantastic performance by Ronnie. In my opinion, the two best narrative singers I ever heard, bar none, were him and Johnny Cash.

[@brendanskeffy3562]

i have to agree with you. Ive always associated them together

[@opaldove]

Aaaaaah, Ronnie Drew. I imagine he and Luke Kelly up to some 'shenannighans' together again. Bless them both. Both wonderful, both unique, both irreplaceable.

I saw a great London based band called The Jacket Potatoes do a fantastic live version of this. Highly recommended. Up the Dubs!

ronnie,one of the greatest of all time

Didn't know this song till the other night, (shame on me) when I heard the "Limerickmen band" sing it. They paid homage to Ronnie, and did a wonderful version too. As you can see, I’m listening to it since.

Bad Karma!!! According to your Channel You are now 73 Years old have you learned anything from your long life!

Heal yourself.... and move on!!!"A Bayonet now thats a Weapon with A working Man on Either End!!!!!! This a Great song like so many outhers and great story by Ronnie he was a True Republican and internationalist!!!!! but he lives with all of us through his singing what a Legend!!!

[@malachy1847]

Im not going to raise to your comments this is not the forum!! "Peace Be With you!!!" I will light a candle for you and your folks next time up in Gweedore or Annagry.......

[@brij4174]

Sad to see the comments here so out of control. Americans should have always been with the Irish in spirit. No idea what's come over us.

OT but I always find it fascinating that in any conflict between these two political/ideological groups, it's always the righties who are arrogant, insulting, and hateful. In my lefty heart I just always wonder why? Why, mr. patthecatman??? Why are you all so meanspirited? Susan

[@patthecatman]
