The famine memorial is a very emotional place there on the banks of the Liffey.

[@robertboyle9603]

I was skeptical when I heard the opening musical approach being slightly upbeat, but I cannot stop listening to the version you have put out here. Wonderful stuff!!

[@bonniepedersen4658]

[@Imoriarty96]

The Foggy Dude! Hope to see you all at Clancy's this November! Ill be in the rowdy crowd in front!

[@paulcollins1918]

I have heard a few different ways this song has been played from rock by a band called the Mahones from Kingston Ontairo Canada to traditional Irish and folk music and it is great every time.

[@dennisgeorg6761]

Very Moving! Great rendition of a great song! I am part Irish and I can not imagine the horror that they faced in those dark times!

[@allirelandmusic]

I agree Dennis

[@richarddonkin3279]

I Absolutely love it,doesn’t matter who sings it it’s a beautiful song

[@helendolan5888]

Well done all. Fantastic. Great Memories of a fab trip with you all Feb 2020. Helen & Joe xx

[@brendanbayer5002]

Sadly, I did not get to visit the prison, but, took a detour through Athenry, back in July, on my way down to Galway, tracing back to where my Great Grandfather came from, before moving to New Zealand in late 1800's...

[@anitainglis2005]

Beautiful 💖 just Beautiful 🧡💛💚

[@andrewperkin2179]

As an Englishman I am always moved by the beauty of this song and the tragedy of what it represents. English Imperialism at its worst. When its belted out at rugby matches its a wonderful thing to hear (- and all we have is Swing Low - embarrassing).

[@milesbrown8016]

Really lovely and patriotic

[@katekitchen2023]

Awesome take on the classic.

[@davidpayne5004]

Hello, dear young wolftones! I am from germany, but how can I express this? Your music touches my heart, mind and body. Thank you so much for feeling irish music🥰

[@Sebideluxe]

Interesting arrangement (I especially like the drive the banjo delivers) but for my taste it is a tad too polished/overproduced.Probably works great live.

[@Bagpipe13]

Nice

[@paulbrill3668]

25% Irish and proud of it!

[@chrismithchrismith]

This song is an expression of national identity. It is not unique; poor people in England were treated in the same appalling way by the ruling classes at that time. Be very careful Ireland that this identity of yours is not diluted to nothing by the muslims that are taking over your country.

[@ronanoconnor8055]

Paddy Rilly is the only man for that song
