[@BethanyAlexander-y8b]

I think I died and went to heaven listening to this man ! Our Lass 😊💖X

[@johnsmall-lo2wl]

This was my nana”s favourite song she passed away on the 23rd of may 2022 I miss you nana and love you 🙏🇮🇪🇮🇪

[@coltonberry985]

[@johnsmall-lo2wl]

[@killianmurphy4427]

Only person that exists that's in his 20s and has the voice of a hardend 50 yer old man love it 👌

[@alan54640]

I beg to differ , my son is just as good ,he's 26👍

[@berniemcc5023]

[@Liesl_Cigarboxguitar]

My mum's favourite song! She was 77 years old yesterday! You sing it beautifully and I like your take on the song. Bless you brother ❤

[@BethanyAlexander-y8b]

💖💖💖💖💖💖! Homeless three years and counting a lowly English peasant- regardless of that fact I can still never claim to know how persecuted the Irish have felt and been in the their time ....RESPECT THE HUMAN PEOPLE ! You cannot take certain facts back but you can draw a line under it and start from here and move along ! I would love a kettle to be humming right now ! Our Lass X

[@leemchugh7894]

Instantly fell in love with this voice and the music. I'm a Scotsman but my kin come from mayo on the west coast. This sound does something to my spirit that words cannot discribe. Simply outstanding Dan McCabe 👏🍀💚

[@mol588]

Same here mo chara 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿+🇮🇪 .. born in Scotland but my kin are from Ramelton, Co Donegal + Derry . This song strikes a chord deep in my soul as if we recognise our ancestors thro' music 🎵 💚 🎸

You have to do the Foggy Dew after that one lad. Best Irish voice I've heard in a while.

[@stingerdunne21]

A Great Irish man. Legacy he has created

[@fergiesunited]

I love this song this was the last song my Dad sung he died 4 day's after singing this song in the local Hall back 1983 he was only 55 years old when he died suddenly thankfully we have him singing it on video. You are fantastic singer and a great talent wish you all success you deserve it .

[@horatiowigglesworth9295]

That's beyond fortunate to have it on video. Not like today when there are 84 videos from 18 angles of a lad singing in a pub. Hope you have that video backed up to DVD or some digital format!

[@kellyannnoble1288]

Proud to be Irish ☘️ goosebumps ❤

[@JohnMillar-u6j]

This song feels so so soothing to me just feels like I'm hame ,😊My grandfather was from the Basque country and my other grandfather was from Ireland I was born in Scotland and still live here I looked up my ancestry and found out I was more Irish and Scottish than Spanish and I'm so proud to have Irish and Scottish heritage and very proud to have that little but very important Basque blood .

[@damienfallon6726]

My Dad, a Galway man, used to sing this song. So authentic and beautiful. Killed me.

Lyrics: At Oranmore in the county Galway One pleasant evening in the month's of May I spied a damsel, she was young and handsome Her beauty fairly took my breath away She worn no jewels, nor costly diamonds No paint nor powder, no none at all But she worn a bonnet with ribbons on it And 'round her shoulders was the Galway shawl We kept on walking she kept on talking 'Till her fathers cottage came in to view Said she, 'Come in sir', and meet my father And play, to please him, 'The Foggy Dew' She sat me down beside the hearthstone I could see her father he was six feet tall And soon her mother, had the kettle singing All I could think of, was the Galway shawl She worn no jewels, nor costly diamonds No paint nor powder, no none at all But she worn a bonnet with ribbons on it And 'round her shoulders was the Galway shawl I played, 'The Black Bird', 'The Stack of Barley' 'Rodney's Glory' and 'The Foggy Dew' She sang each note like an Irish linnet And tears weld in her eyes of blue 'Twas early, early, all in the morning I hit the road for old Donegal Said she, 'goodbye sir', she cried and kissed me But my heart remain with the Galway shawl She worn no jewels, nor costly diamonds No paint nor powder, no none at all But she worn a bonnet with ribbons on it And 'round her shoulders was the Galway shawl
