[@billlyspencer3118]

Nice one!!!

[@ambyyy1]

This guy is pure genius, Paddy Galvin got inside this troubled woman's head and John Spillane got the intensity of the writing and brought the poem to life! Just look at the intensity on his face as he backs away from the mic at the end, brilliance!!!!

Is he a Genius.? Phil Coulter is a better Genius. The late professor Micheal Ó Súilleabháin' was another Genius. The late Sean Ó Riada was yet another. This fellow is offering something' in a rather mountainy presentation.

[@patrickambrose5372]

@@michaeldineen1098 Horses for courses as they say! There's loads of room for geniuses and snobs in the world!

[@michaeldevaney5728]

Totally totally disagree with a person who said Phil Coulter was a better genius I totally totally disagree it's like comparing Cameron diaz to Nora batty in last of the summers wine

[@michaeldevaney5728]

What for the love of jesus did Phil Coulter ever so which could classify him as a genius if Phil Coulter was a genius I'm Brad Pitt

[@michaeldevaney5728]

Anyone who couldn't or wouldn't classify or describe John Spillane as a genius is in my opinion obviously totally jealous ans envious of his talent and ability total begrudge

[@Eabha2000]

My cousin lives next door to him :) ive talked to him myself and my friend is in one of his songs. And yes,i am from passage :p

[@evolaine]

Thank you. Brillant as expected... Please could you tell the source of this recording ? have you got others of the same gig ? never seen it before...

[@FlatlandMando]

Very unique & therefore worth listening to in a musical world of pap & homogeneity & rap. Sorry rap fanciers this IS an actual song.

[@holding6289]

Hi Brian. Wondering if I can use a few seconds of this clip with no sound for a video

[@michaeldevaney5728]

[@michaeldevaney5728]

[@rainDogsclips]

it was a poem by a cork man.

[@JorgenHartogs]

he's performing here in Belfast this Friday with Lumiere I Lumiere tá Éilís Kennedy agus Pauline Scanlon; beirt amhránaithe eisceachtúla ón Daingean, Chontae Chiarraí, a bhfuil dhá ghuth soiléire ar leith agus fuaim uathúil amháin acu, Éire is ea í.

[@markog1999]
