It’s hard to measure Shane’s influence on music during his lifetime but we can all agree that he provided some of the most memorable lyrics that stand alongside the very best and will still be played decades from now.

Punk poet, working class hero, shy simple lad Shane MacGowan ♥️ RIP

What a song writing genius. This song will be regarded as a classic for centuries to come. (If humans make it through the many existential crisis’ we are currently facing)

[@patrickmccabe3786]

Best line ever in a song. “The ginger lady by my bed”. Bottle of red bush whiskey.😂😂😂

[@RazorMouth]

Good line but sad too really.... He'll be missed.

[@user-qb4uk5qt6w]

rip in peace shane. you wrote great songs.

[@martinlevy9729]

Absolute poetry this record.

[@martinlevy9729]

Similar to the sentiment of "i built my dreams around you" in fairytale.

[@paulymullo]

Love this song,everyone cane relate to its lyrics,shane was a master,may he rest in piece🙏🙏🙏

The measure of my dreams - God bless you Shane💚💚

[@Vanguard.Blackrock.State.]

I am Japanese.but I love his music.

[@marieholland8868]

From all the old interviews now surfacing its easy to see why Shane was SO well loved...he was transparent, open and honest! He didnt try to cover up his imperfections. Every word came from his heart, unlike many who hide their true selves. Not Shane, he was the REALIST DEAL of all 😅 He seemed to be a rebel but clearly he had a really good, kind heart. Lets try to take a leaf out of his book ❤

[@garymelnyk7910]

Yes Marie. Your good words come from a good heart. Shane’s songs came from such a heart!

[@marieholland8868]

@@garymelnyk7910 oh thankyou! I'm moved by your lovely comment. Have a great day Gary!

[@Godloveszaza]

He was loved because of what he did for all others and HOW he did it which involved these "imperfections" of his so can it really be deemed as an imperfection? If so why not trade war stories and let's see how all of us share these "imperfections" ? He had a good time and everyone around him did as well if anyone says otherwise then clearly it's projection.

[@michaelshanahan4042]

Well said 😊

[@paulymullo]

Shane your music will be heard in our childrens children,Rest in piece Shane macGowan an Irish musical great🇮🇪💚🇮🇪🙏🙏🙏

[@jackkavanagh2487]

Love at about 1:32 when Shane starts to sing the wrong lyrics and then hears what Mundy is singing and is like "oh yeah fair enough" 😂

[@paulymullo]

Shane was singin the right lyrics,he just let mundy sing when he started,shane knew the words,he wrote it,mundy had times to come in,shane just let him have his cue,Shane RIP🇮🇪💚🇮🇪

[@stevemather-i9m]

If some privileged oxbridge graduate had penned those lyrics they’d be the next poet laureate, but I guess that’s why we loved him, one of the most meaningful poignant songs ever written, RIP Shane😢

[@jackthelad6644]

I love the smile on Sharon Shannon’s face. RIP Shane 🥃

[@Devon-r1f]

How I wish I could own such a smile, her face is filled with such joy to be playing in this iconic band opposite the genius that is Shane McGowan & the love & joy in the room, love this song..r.i.p lovely Shane

[@annecaro.3956]

[@louisegoodyear2515]

Too often, people comment about Shane's drinking habits, he was very shy and his 'drinking' brought out his 'Genius '

[@ROOKTABULA]

Please. Stop romanticizing his disease. He himself said when it was bad he did next to nothing for long stretches. 🤬

[@exills]

Love you Shane ! ❤ let sing it together 🎉 I've been loving you a long time Down all the years, down all the days And I've cried for all your troubles Smiled at your funny little ways We watched our friends grow up together And we saw them as they fell Some of them fell into Heaven Some of them fell into Hell I took shelter from a shower And I stepped into your arms On a rainy night in Soho The wind was whistling all its charms I sang you all my sorrows You told me all your joys Whatever happened to that old song? To all those little girls and boys Sometimes I'd wake up in the morning The ginger lady by my bed Covered in a cloak of silence I'd hear you talking in my head I'm not singing for the future I'm not dreaming of the past I'm not talking of the first times I never think about the last Now the song is nearly over We may never find out what it means Still there's a light I hold before me You're the measure of my dreams The measure of my dreams

[@vittoriomaschio3491]

Oggi lasci la dimora terrena…l’ultimo ed unico atto scontato di una vita al limite, dove l’eccesso era parte, non recitata, del Tuo Essere. Del resto se uno nasce il giorno di Natale deve fare di tutto per stare al mondo in maniera “diversa”. Di questa Vita, della tua Avventura cosa rimane ora? Un’opera d’arte, un dipinto di Hieronymus Bosch con un uomo dalla dentatura precaria che canta con una birra in una mano e una sigaretta nell’altra. Ciao Shane.
