This song was written by Peadar Kearney in 1916. He was a Irish Patriotic. A great song...And im African American I love Irish songs
God bless you.
🙂🙂🙂
Nice version and such a beautiful voice. Peader Kearney was indeed a patriot and played his part during those times. He wrote a number of what has becomeknown as Rebel Songs including A Soldiers Song and what is now known as Amhrán na bhFiann and The Irish Nathional Anthem. It is a song that stirs up Pride in my Irish history and the brave men and women who paid such a price for what we see today.
Loved it one of my favourites.. County down Ireland 🇮🇪.. Keep it up.
Hey, thank you so much!
There's about 400 years of rebellion and risings emanating from your voice through this song. your one of the best traditional singers I have heard. you sure your not Irish? Thank you for sharing this. It stirs the soul...
Thanks, so much. I'm glad that you've enjoyed this version. My mother's maiden name is Henderson, so there's bound to be some Scots-Irish somewhere down the line. :)
You should book some tour dates in Ireland. The Comhaltas would be only loving a session with someone of your talent. It would be great if you could cover a version of a song called Boolavouge. Its a slow ballad written in the memory of those who took part in the 1798 rebellion. It really is a lovely ballad. Hey, would you mind if I posted this video to my facebook page? my mates would love to hear this version of down by the Glenside?
hi adrienne ,thankyou so much for this song played your version to my 76 year old neighbour and watched him cry , sad but happy and wandering through his years all his emotions in one song , your a star and keep it up , the bhoys and ghirls in glenside scotland are fans ,god bless you
Tiocfaidh ár lá!
Love the Sons of the Pioneers version on "Rio Grande"! Festus from "Gunsmoke" has the most beautiful voice.
Thats my favorite version of the song I have ever heard. Glad someone else knows of it! LOL>

A beautiful alternative arrangement....Well done Adrienne
Beautiful. My favorite Irish song. You did it much justice.
Jeez, you were brilliant...
I've actually got goosebumps right now...
Hope you do more Irish songs.
I'd love to hear you sing Boolavogue
Beautiful rendition, Adrienne. I'm an Irish fiddle player - of accompaniment to singers - it's a treat to hear the gorgeous music in this melody, and the song sung meaningfully. Great job! Keep up the good work.
Thank you. I'm trying to learn this blessed song on my guitar. Your version is so sad and lovely.
I love this song, and this is one of the most beautiful interpretations I ever heard.
Thank you very much for sharing!
What a lovely rendition. Thanks for uploading.
Thank you for singing this beautiful song. Very.....tiuching. Going right through my heart. Thank you again.
Amazing! My grandmother taught me this song. I miss her so much. She lives in Ireland and I live in the Caribbean. =(
Adrienne, your voice is lovely and your guitar playing great! An excellent rendition of this fine Irish song. God bless you! and God bless the Bold Fenian Men!
Best version of this song I’ve heard.beautifull song
Lovely voice Adrienne!!! I do really love this song, and it is great the way you sing it!!! Greetings from Argentina!!!
Sounds great! I stumbled upon this because I'm actually learning this song right now. This is a great version
Stumbled on this beautiful rendition....singers find the true air of a song in their spirit
well done girl. well sung.
I have goosebumps all the way over here in Scotland! This is an awesome cover of a fantastic song.
I worked and was mates with a Protestant Glasgow man , had our political differences all be , but he used to call me a Fenian to offend me but I love it and wore the label with honour
Haunting... Very beautiful rendition of a classic ballad. Will be sharing on facebook. Thank you Adrienne.
What a beautiful talent you have in your voice and and also how you play your guitar . The ability of the songs in the world that you write a song are just so beautiful nothing wrong with your voice lady young lady. I really enjoy your music. I'll be praying for you are you travel keep safe. I can't tell you how much I enjoy your voice your voice also right elegant one of a kind nothing rusty about your voice. Your fan Julie black Warsaw Indiana . Hope to show up in one of your concert god bless you☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆♡☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆:)
excellent rendition, I love this song!
Thank you, Billy. I'm happy that you enjoyed my interpretation. It's definitely one of my favorite traditional tunes to sing. Rarely do I get to perform these in the correct setting, such as the few Celtic festivals I've been to in the past, so I'm thankful for your comment! :D
Loved the song, and you sang it beautifully. Thank you for sharing with us!
Amazing voice!...and great interpretation of a classic Celtic song!....thank you Adrienne!
Always been one of my favourite rebel tunes, you've certainly done it justice, lovely voice!
This is gorgeous! Thank you for sharing it with us. :)
I've heard this song for many years by many artists...this is a very nice interpretation Adrienne. Love the inflections in your voice...very nice tone. For the fool that said lose the pop?? Clueless!! No ne wants to hear a great song sang the same exact way...it can never do justice to the original..what makes an artist stand out is taking a song and making it their own. I thought it was very good and would love to hear more Irish music.
Très belle chanson, tendrement chantée .. (very beautiful song, tenderly sung ..)
Well sung young lady... my favorite song. I love that song...Sons of the pioneers sung it...
It was written by Peadar Kearney, probably shortly after the Irish Civil War era. It was first recorded in the mid 1950s. Beautiful song - beautiful version you've done here. I hope you keep singing it for many years to come - and retell the story, over and over in your travels.
Absolutely beautiful Adrienne. This was my grandfather's most favourite song which he used to sing to us when we were kids. I wonder who you learned it from? Wonderful....
wonderful!
this is a beautiful rendition, I know it’s a hard song to sing and you sing it wonderfully, absolutely amazing!!!
That was outstanding!!!!
Greetings from an Ancient Irish area called Oriel (Gaeilge: Airgíalla. modern day Irish counties of Armagh (Ard macha), Monaghan ( Muineacháin ) and north Louth (An Lú). You have a unique voice, really v.good.
As the other fellow says, you should sing your version of: Boolavogue
Sláinte!
WONDERFUL!
Very nice.Such a beautiful voice!
Absolutely beautiful sound
Lovely!
Very nice. I just listened to Jesse Ferguson do this song and you came up automatically. You both do it well and very differently.
Thanks so much! With a song so near and dear to people's hearts I am always glad to know when someone has liked my version. :D
Your very welcome. I actually didn't know the song before today, but it's very good. I encourage you to check out Jesse Ferguson.
Simply superb❤
Nice job, when you can make the eyes sweat with a trad tune like that, you've got it down.
Perfect!!! You should try the parting glass another beutiful haunting ballad best wishes from ireland
Hi Adrienne, I am an avid fan of this type of song and usually hate when people change them, but I must say that you have done a fabulous job with this one. I think this is the best version I have ever heard and being Irish, I have heard a lot of people singing this. Well done, I would love to hear you sing some more Irish ballads or folk songs.
Wow this is an amazing cover!
There are so many great sad celtic songs that are just so satisfying to sing! haha the issue i've always run into is that those are almost exclusively the ones that I feel myself drawn to learn and sing :P My thought on hearing you sing this was "oh man, this would be a great one to learn!" and my second thought was "ha. yeah nolan, it'll be a great change of pace in your repertoire which is already made up of 85% slow sad songs." Well done! Sounds great as always! :)
Absolutely beautiful. ❤
Lovely version !
Great job..fair play pal..I liked it and the guitar is nice
Wow, you have an amazing voice, keep singing ✌️😘👍🎼🎸
Amazing Voice 🍀🍀🍀
First time a herd this song was in a John Wayne move !
Joseph Zimmerle it was in rio grande with john wayne.
My new favorite version of this classic song. Maith thu!
This song was used in the John wayne movie rio grande. Great song.
You did a great job with this song thank you for uploading!
Very good job... Thank you for not destroying such a beautiful song... I'm pretty sure you've actually added to it
@thewhiskeypriest1 Thank you! This song was in my mom's collection of Irish folk tunes. We keep books of music for our shows, and they can have quite the array. (As my mom's maiden name is Henderson, we tend to enjoy the Scots-Irish stuff.) After hearing my mom sing this song for years, I liked it so much that I wanted to try it out. :)
Usually I listen to Omnia's version, but I think I like this one more. Such a beautiful voice...
beautiful
Awesome
that was perfect.you have an amazing voice
Tiocfaidh ár lá🇮🇪 gó raibh maith agat❤️
Great interpretation of a great Irish ballad
Thank you so much!
Beautifully sung.
Our revenge will be the laughter of are children... GLORY OH GLORY OH TO THE BOLD FEINAN MEN.
Awesome version of a great Irish rebel song!
Beautiful interpretation Adrienne, more Irish folk/rebel pls. You made this song your own. You know the man that wrote this song also wrote The Soldier Song, The Irish national anthem. Best version I've heard to date though and I've heard many. Keep it up sweetie. X
Great take on this classic ballad
Thank you for your view. And yes, I can assure you I have grown some in two years. :D
awsome ther is nothing else to describe but awsome
this is my favorite sobg
Well done thanks 🙏
Brilliant 🤙
Sad part is I've lived in Dublin my entire life and not once ever have I heard this song at any session, you go to temple bar aka the tourist trap ask any performer to play any form or fashion of a rebel tune and you get told no.... That's not even a joke try it when your on your holidays.
Ireland has gone so P.C we can't even be seen to be proud of our Gaelic race.
In a pub in Temple Bar an American student of mine asked the band to play ‘A Nation Once Again’. ‘Not allowed’ was his answer. When I pointed out that it was written by a great Irish Protestant patriot in the 1840s, same answer. Poor old Thomas Davis must’ve been spinning in his grave.
Fantastic
Lovely... Very nice.
Fantastic work. Being North American, you should read into the Fenian Movement it is you sing of - it was highly organised in your own part of the world. Glory O.
was just thinking, another nice Irish song I think would fit nice in your repertoire would be Galtee Mountain Boy. If you don't know it you can find on youtube.
Magic x
I grew up listening to this song
Beautiful. You made it you
r own. Well done.

Think you'd be amazing singing/playing Spancill Hill. A very apt song for Irish/Americans and beautiful especially if you know the history. Keep it up, i think you're GREAT!!!!! XX
Real good singing, :-)
Hey Nolan! :) Nice to hear from you. You should go for it! I think this song has a brilliant way of bringing out emotion in people, no matter how it's done.
Besides if you wanted some faster traditional tunes... you could always try out Little Beggarman if you haven't already! (lol.... xD I don't think I'll EVER get that one down.)
Y'Indissagh. I'm a Manx Nationalist and Celt. I'd love to see you live gig. A gorgeous song thanks a lot .
Dear gods this is fippin' beautiful!
I wish I could sing like that! I mean, my voice wouldn't sound, uh..
well.. This is awkward.
~Cough~
Beautiful work :)
Like and Favorite for you!
well done !
Greetings from Ireland, Adrienne.
I embed this video, to show local Girls that there is Music outside of Pop, as well as within it..
'T'was a Man that tried to sing it to me, 35 yrs ago - without accompaniment.
Instead of "scared" saw me, it used to the abbreviation of "never" - "ne'er" ( pronounce - naare ) saw me....
Exceptional. There is another one, another melody - "Boys of Barr Na Straide", which you would be good at, and the Christy Moore one of "Black is the Colour".
" pluckin' (plucking) young Nettles".....
Presumably, to make a sort of "Soup" - which was heard of, but before this observer's time.
I don't hear, one Irish Girl, singing this - yet they should. Well done!

You should get a
"Grant" (financial assistance), from the Irish Government, as an Ambassador of Ireland , for the Promotion of Irish Culture. 2014 - most People can separate Music from Past Political Messages, and that of A Great Song, in its own right.
Very haunting.
Well, now finish up with foggy dew. youll no doubt have all in tears..... great job!
@ManFromUk2007 Thanks! I really like singing this one, even though it's very sad.
No surrender! To an Ireland undivided under St Patricks cross! FGAU
LOVELY VERSION.

Hey Adrienne, that was a fantastic version of a beautiful song which you have shared. For some more inspiration, I would recommend Mary Black for your voice. You sound a lot like Shania Twain and I think the contrast would be beautiful. I Subscribed. First time ever ;-) well done!
