[@daffodil97]

gordon strachen live in dublin

[@petrakroon]

Great song!!!! I once bin to a concert of them (about 15 years ago) BRILLIANT! Petra from The Netherlands

[@marksaunderson3042]

Not only it this a very good track, from a musical perspective, but the sentiments expressed should also resonate with anyone who left their birth place in the hope of finding a better life elsewhere. ‘I left, always hoping to return. But never did.. . .’

[@karenlong2015]

You can and will some day. See you on N17.xx

[@PUMPERNICKEL4]

Was in Tuam myself last week. Browne's pub is no more, but the N17 sure is. Love the piece in the song when the old fellah left him to Shannon and they turned left at Clare Galway. A song for good memories

[@sershia]

I saw (no pun intended) them over the summer at The Balloon Fest on Long Island. Two people in the crowd were carrying an N17 banner around and Leo said it had been at every show on the tour so far. These guys are great. Great version of the song!!!

[@adriandobbyn874]

Hon young Flaherty!

[@jkmomofo]

the best band and the craziest road ever....an american on her way to tuam...ireland roads are crazy and they write the best songs about those roads

[@PGPyramid1]

This is from a long long time ago, when they were still fresh and raw. Saw them in March in Detroit, and they seem to have lost their way a bit with the newer songs. Still prefer the old stuff.

[@KeithStephens1]

this song is so class especially when you are away from the old sod living on a foreign soil

[@gracefulfish]

Copying Patrick's role on the tin whistle is giving me a FIT! And what the heck does "go back to the jacks" mean? -Confused Yank

[@gbyrne92]

does anyone know the chords for this song? it looks like C and G but that doesnt sounf right

[@patriciaryan9193]

I loveyhis

[@podgebrowne]

Saw Doctors are the best, I rem watching this episode of Nighthawlks, seen the SD's a few times since, dome in Tralee during the rose, mental!

[@stephentimoney6951]

Class song. Working in Wales when this came out brings me back to mad sessions in the Raven pub. Could listen to it forever

[@bigangie1]

God!! How young do the band look in this video! 1990, eh? The year i was introduced to their brilliant music, and i still love their music to this day!!! Superb! : )

[@iusetaloveher]

Buíochas to Poser5k for posting this. Classic song. I remember at that time there was more of a Dublin-country divide.

[@Erniebins]

Hoe young does Davi look ! just seen the boys play in Cardiff was a fantastic gig

[@fjm67]

They look much younger. Does anyone know how old this video is?

[@DomFinn]

This is brilliant. Brings some memories back. Love this song. I have just gone and found the tape.

[@anne3362]

Brilliant, lads!! Best song ever. Love seeing the old footage.

[@YoshiPooper]

AMAZING song. I love how the guy said "Yay" in the beginning.

[@pcorcoran100]

The boy on the bodhran won the lotto years ago.

[@MrSeanSmalls]

For the first 2 minutes i was sure the tin whistle player was some drunk in the bar using the wall to hold himself up.

[@charliebrowm7670]

Tough one buddy x

[@DiarmaidO9]

unreal

[@Darko7274]

Awfull

[@NachoManRandySandwich]

Maybe my time line is messed up but I was pretty sure that Nighthawks ended years before this song was ever released. As far as I can remember Nighthawks ended some time in the mid eighties and this song came out in the early nineties.

[@TheLastAngryMan01]

Did Seán Doherty not go on Nighthawks to break the news about the CJH wire-tapping? If so, the programme would have run until 1992 at least.

[@celinereid9136]

I first heard this on the tv programme Nighthawks with Shay Healy. He appears in the opening seconds of this video in a check shirt. A great show and great music.

[@martinmcroberts8568]

The road from Collooney to Galway :-)

[@v0n1b0]

..and more importantly, from Tuam

[@moonwrasse]

It was the keyboard player not the drummer that one the lotto

[@NachoManRandySandwich]

When I moved to the states in August of 2000 I was on the same flight as the guy with the glasses he sat a couple of seats in front of me. Six years later on my return flight home that tool Derek Davis from Live At Three shared the same honour

[@charliebrowm7670]

Derek Gallagher that's so fuckin cool
