Thanks D. We're always writing songs and music, and in concert we'll play the old hits as well as some newer songs. We hope to see you all when we hit the theatres once again - chomping at the bit!
@@TheIrishRovers I feel like there's a certain timelessness to all of your music, and while Saints and Sinners is sure as hell a far cry from the classics, I feel like it's just as good
Had a relative with a Irish background commit suicide , and the house had a sound of a terrible squeal that turned out to be a bad heating pump motor. Still, it made me remember the story of the banshee cry.
My late grandmother (of Irish descent), before she died, called me to her, shook my hand with her two hands, said goodbye and sent me away.I was 11 years old.I didn't feel she was leaving. It was night, I was in bed and I heard cries/screems.I ran to see if she was okay, but the sounds didn't come from her room.I went out on the balcony and it sounded even louder there.I was like in ecstasy.I did not know what to feel - no sadness, no fear, no peace or joy.I was just listening to those moans.The next day, family friends came to our house to help my father with the funeral.She was gone.I felt a huge emptiness in my heart, I remember it as a physical pain.She was gone, and the cries were over ... Thank you for this masterpiece that will always remind me of my grandma. P.S. Excuse me for my bad English, I'm born in Bulgaria.
I feel like the life of a banshee is very tragic, she's always mourning and crying and no one is there to comfort her because they all blame her instead of realizing that she just announces what was destined to happen either way.
I've heard them cry in my dreams since i was little. 4 months after a family member would die. Only once did I see seen one, i thought it came for me but 4 months later my husband's grandfather passed.
@@mitchymasar9549 this video was premiering and you could comment on the video before it was uploaded to youtube, i think thats what they ment by that.
I’m a rocker at heart: Van Halen, AC/DC, Montrose, Deep Purple, Led Zepplin… but I will always have a spot in my heart and music library for The Irish Rovers going back to my childhood. I well remember seeing them live in Sydney, Nova Scotia as a kid and on CBC all the time. They’re a Christmas tradition on my playlist and they bring it just as hard as any of my beloved rock bands. Hats off to the Rovers. Always had it. Always will.
HOW is it that I've not heard this song before?? I canna stop listening to it... have it on a loop and going into hour two... these are NOT The Irish Rovers of my younger years.... WOW.... loving this!!
I swear I've heard them in the swamps here in Canada. Shriek after shriek, but only a few nights in a row at max, then nothing for some time. There is nothing in these parts that sound like that. I've lived in this swamp for over 30 years. Freaks me out everytime.
I love the myths of Ireland when I was a little lad my parents would always tell me stories of the banshee and other stories and I would always wait to listen for them and if ever get kids of my own I want them to here the same stories and I love the music you guys make I bet Jimmy Ferguson is watchin you guys everyday and smiling down from the heavens above and thinkin to himself I am glad these men are doin so well and have made it this far
I’m a Newfie with Irish blood and my parents would tell us stories about banshie and jack o lantern when we were kids. I love the Irish and Celtic culture its who I am really
As I listen to the song and create imagery in my mind, I can't help choke up and end up on the cusp crying. It's always when I hear the screech in my head.
Thanks for this song and cheers from Finland. They found Burkitt's lymphoma in my bowels at spring (was 34 years at that time) and now I have recovered from the all treatments and cancer is thing of the past for me after 2 control checks. One of the songs that gave me strength and at darkest moments I still thought atleast banshee warned us if all would end here. I have listened your music many years and I'm glad there is many years in future too :) Keep up good work lads! Edit: One and half year later they found incurable pancreatic cancer from my mother... Maybe it's not fair but I still feel lucky that she is still alive and I can help her with knowledge from my lymphoma and we can enjoy things for her last months or years. But after all this I still feel that banshee is not evil spirit and I'm glad that we still have time together after we assimilated the diagnose few months ago :)
Being a Nomadic drifter When the Banshee howels for me !I l look to the heavens and whisper thank you.Now I can finally stop and rest , for l have arrived at my true and beautiful family, freainds ( Home ) !
When my grandad died, i was only 5. So to not make me not scared of death, my parents just told me the banshee took him away, then i just learned in the age of 16 that he died of a heart attack
Lyrics: My name is Frankie Kavanagh, in Ireland I do dwell It's of a family curse I sing, the truth to you I'll tell A banshee does appear to us, a harbinger of death A warning that soon one of us, will draw their final breath It was a dark and stormy night, no moon to light the sky I wasn't more than four or five, when first I heard her cry A wailing lamentation, that filled me with the fright And in the morning I was told, your granddad died last night Perhaps it's just the wind that's whistl'ing round the window pane Or maybe it was thunder, or the rhythm of the rain The old ones say "an omen, and death won't be denied" The devil's on the hunting, when you hear the banshees cry She comes to warn a family, that death is quick and near Her eyes are red from crying, as she sheds her bitter tears A woodlin' of the fairy folk, she sings in moarnful tones And if you hear her keen, it'll chill you to the bone Perhaps it's just the wind that's whistl'ing round the window pane Or maybe it was thunder, or the rhythm of the rain The old ones say "an omen, and death won't be denied" The devil's on the hunting, when you hear the banshees cry You hear the banshee howling, is to make your blood run cold Knowing that the devil's come, to claim another soul The families are all gone now, but I'm the last to see And every night I wait in dread, to hear her cry for me Perhaps it's just the wind that's whistl'ing round the window pane Or maybe it was thunder, or the rhythm of the rain The old ones say "an omen, and death won't be denied" The devil's on the hunting, when you hear the banshees cry
WOW!!! Amazing they're still performing and making new songs. I was born in 1966 and have been listening to them my whole life. My oldest brother has several of their albums I'd always listen to. It was funny in school, kids would ask what groups I listen to, I'd say, The Irish Rovers, The Clancy Brothers, etc. I'd just get a strange look or an Oh OK. I got some CD's to.
I love the rovers it reminds me of my dad who is gone over 20 years I would listen to the orange and green song with him when I was a kid and other songs we liked by them
Fewer people are dying than earlier, because everyone is in isolation(or should be) The tragedy is that Banshee's aren't always seen as evil, just carriers of bad news.
I was an essential worker during the worst of it here in the USA... It was haunting to be out and about when the whole country was (basically) shut down.
This song inspired me to look more into celtic folklore than i already was into for my writing. i made a few Banshees and Baobhan sith's because i was fascinated by the Fae and Banshee stories.
Growing up in northern British Columbia in the 60s and 70s, CBC was the only tele we had...and of course, that meant The Irish Rovers on Saturday night...I grew to LOVE "The Unicorn"...being a true Canadian built with Irish bits and pieces, the music called to me... Some decades hence, and this is far removed from the fanciful tale of those silly unicorns...but I gotta say, I do love love the 'new' Irish Rovers sound...this song is amazing, even as it evokes the terrors of the tales me Da and Gran told me of those mythical folk that haunt the Emerald Isle....
Excellent Halloween song. A frightening figure of Irish myth is perfect. Loved the electric guitar addition. Can't wait to see what else you lads cook up next 😉.
Oh I love this song I get sick of people getting upset with women who yell maybe they are yelling because they are in pain maybe they are yelling because they see impending danger and they are trying to warn you love it what is wrong with this old world all these singers they really they really tell it like it is💝
I revisited this song after almost three years and it hit me just like it did the first time. Incredible song. I have been reading some Irish folk tales from an amazing collection, edited by W.B.Yeats and it fits the mood it has created perfectly. Merry Christmas 2023 everyone.
I am looking for the song years May come and years May go ❤thank you I grew up with The Irish Rovers the Clancy Brothers Wolf Tones the The Dubliners Irish descenders
Love this group!!!! I have been a fan since they released The Unicorn back in 1967. I have been to every concert I could. Just love them!!! My husband got dragged to one of their concerts and he is now a fan, too!!
I’m Irish and I can’t believe that I didn’t know about the banshee into the movie of Darby O’Gill that’s what I learned about the banshee and it scared the daylight Out to me
I remember coming home form the store and as we were putting up stuff and as i was going inside i heard a women screeching it scared me i went to see were it came from i seen nothing a couple of days later i heard a family friend died the same night idk what i heard it could have been a owl it sounded more human-like i don't really believe in banchees but if thats what i heard thats pretty scary i have always heard stories because of my Irish ancestry and being told stories from my family

Me name is Frankie Kavanagh in Ireland I do dwell
It’s of a family curse I sing the truth to you I’ll tell
A Banshee does appear to us a harbinger of death
A warning that soon one of us will draw their final breath
It was a dark and stormy night no moon to light the sky
I wasn’t more than four or five when first I heard her cry
A wailing lamentation that filled me with the fright
And in the morning was told your Grandad died last night
Perhaps it’s just the wind that’s whistling round the window pane
Or maybe it was thunder or the rhythm of the rain
The old ones say an omen and death won’t be denied
The devil’s out of a-hunting when you hear the Banshee’s Cry
Oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh
Oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh
She comes to warn the family that death is creeping near
Her eyes are red from crying as she sheds her bitter tears
A woman of the fairy folk she sings in mournful tones
And if you heard her keening it would chill you to the bone
Perhaps it’s just the wind that’s whistling round the window pane
Or maybe it was thunder or the rhythm of the rain
The old ones say an omen and death won’t be denied
The devil’s out of a-hunting when you hear the Banshee’s Cry
Oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh
Oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh
To hear the banshee howling is to make your blood run cold
Knowing that the devil’s come to claim another soul
The family are all gone now I’m the last you see
And every night I wait in dread to hear her cry for me
Perhaps it’s just the wind that’s whistling round the window pane
Or maybe it was thunder or the rhythm of the rain
The old ones say an omen and death won’t be denied
The devil’s out of a-hunting when you hear the Banshee’s Cry
Oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh
Oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh

Now, this type of banshee is an evil fairy whose moaning cries bring nothing but bad luck. - Blarney Kilakilarney, The Leprechauns' Christmas Gold (1981)
You know, she doesn't cause the death! She just warn for it!
the song: the banshee lamenting that someone is about to die
the images: cat
Mein Kaiser!
@Ted Hubert Pagnanawon Crusio oh so thats why my ma never told me about that, we had dogs btw
