Real Irish Music as captured at live Irish traditional sessions such as this one, these are all mostly recorded in the Irish pub pre-covid or in recent times as the country comes out of Covid lockdown. These are informal gatherings where Irish music is played across trad and folk, the tradition of Irish music lives on. In some cases the musicians will play some tunes from famous singers or groups. No copyright is intended here and music remains the property of the individual owner at all times.
When I was a very little girl (very many moons ago now) I was in my grandmas kitchen when she asked me to fetch her glasses from her bag in the sitting room. My grandfather was in the garden tending to the roses as I walked up the hall to get my grannies glasses for her. As I was about to leave the Sitting Room I was stopped dead in my tracks by the sound of my grandfathers beautiful singing voice. He had come in from the garden to give my grandma some of the roses and to sing this song to her. When I peeped round the corner of the doorframe I could see them in the kitchen at the end of the hallway, and they were dancing together as my grandpa sang. My grandad died when I was 9, and my grandma subsequently passed nearly 35 years ago now, yet when I hear this song and I close my eyes, I can see them dancing around the kitchen as vividly as if it happened only yesterday. Thank you for posting this beautifully played song.❤❤xxx

A beautiful memory to hold onto.

Perry Como!!!
Considering the song was written in the mid 1800's I don't think so somehow
It cant get more beautiful than that!what a lovely performance by the lady on the banjo she played so well in timing with the singer.Thankyou😊❤
Awalys loved this song i.m born irish live ïn holland over 50 years. Love ireland
Thank you for this. This song along with some others remind me of my beautiful late wife, every time I hear it feels me with sadness and memories. I met my late wife when she was 16 and lost after 54 years Engaged when she was 18 married when she was 20. Lost her to cancer 205
My condolences for your loss. May her memory be a blessing to you and everyone else who knew her.
My sympathy Tony ..we have similar story.
Thank you, and of course my sympathy to your good self. At least nothing can remove our memoties until we see them again.@@michaelosullivan298
Same for me. Thanks
Best pub ,local,lovely people heart warming ❤️❤️❤️❤️🤞
Real musicians real music to your ears....There is no substitute for real music! I enjoyed that, thank you!
I worked there when Dessie hynes owned it what a gentleman to work for I loved it there
A gent RIP
No one can sing this like Finbar Furey. Irish soul singing at it's best
GIVE THEM A BREAK.. THEY ARE GREAT
Maybe you’re right but this is pretty good and the atmosphere of a pun too, I don’t know when this was filmed and whether it’s still like that but in England our character pubs are disappearing fast, only ones surviving really are the characterless food pubs.
Watching from NZ. Wish I was there at this pub. Fabulous!
James Thornton, the author of this song, I suspect was more American than anything else. A Vaudeville performer in America, he wrote it in 1898. His parents were Irish, but there is some doubt as to his place of birth, perhaps Ireland but maybe Liverpool England or even the good old U.S.A. How much a patriotic Irishman he was, seems open to question, but he was very much in love with his wife, for he wrote the song about her, and it is indeed gloriously sentimental song.
Love Dublin and it's people.

Love this lady playing the banjo🌹🌹
That lady played the banjo well fare play to her it so nice to be with the lovely muscinas thanks
Breaks my heart that proper pubs are dying out where I live. Now its just sport bars......no place to have have a drink and a good old singalong anymore.....
Sweet sixteen is the most unreal Irish song you could ever get!!! I believe Perry Como had a hand in writing it. It is an American pop song!!!! For gods sake!!!!
Good people playing good music.
This is beautiful it gave me the goose bumps
Love the Bangor great group of musicians
The Best. Authentic.
Wonderful.
Songwriter: James Thornton (1861-1936). First published by M. W. Fischer and company, New York, 1898.
BEAUTIFUL
Love love the Bango🌻😊
I spent my 70 birthday listening to the jamming session in O’Donoghues ,my best birthday ever loved every minute.

Lady on the banjo though......
Beautiful rendition , who is the lady on the banjo?
Her name is Aine Kerr, a local musician
This is what the UK was not now
Finbar the man fer this song.
Brilliant! ❤
Is that Zelinski standing at the bar??
If he wasn't he'd be wishing he was if he listened to this video.
😱🥰🥰
Barney ? You mean Finbar ffs
Why do people insist on talking when some is singing...very disappointing.
But it's in the fake O'Donohues.
Spelt differently, both entitled to play music
The man with the terrible accent talking during the song is very bad.
Cheap banjo
Wat an insult dermot gilligan to say tat about the banjo you are a v sad person😏
It's a Clareen - look them up
A clareen banjo is not cheap ffs
🇮🇪 I visited Ireland several times but only twice I have had the possibility to join such a private session in a pub😊 the atmosphere was always as marvellous as in this lovely video/I'm sending lots of greetings from Germany 🇩🇪🇮🇪🍀
How can anyone hear this beautiful song and not join in. Well played. 😊😊
I met my wife in O'Donoghues🥰
So did I ..God help me.
this is what makes great Music and song in a pub all welcome 🙂
Best ever on the Banjo!
I envy Ireland for it's music tradition. We do have traditional music in Sweden as well, but nothing like this.
Crying my eyes out. Beautiful.
1 of my mams songs, I love you av I've never loved before .I loved you as I've loved you.
Love the banjo holding it together. Fine player.
What a Quality voice that Man has! !
Oh how I would love to go to a old Irish bar 🙂
Well sung & played..
Use to hear parents sing this. Great memories.
Perfect to end a night
A great sound. Fine singing and an excellent banjo player..!!
Mighty song🇮🇪👍
Loved it! Thank you.
Only in Ireland.
They should build a bridge from Liverpool to Dublin . This pub would be my local ha ha
Actually, sung by the Mills Brothers here in the USA in the 30’s. I love the song.
You can't beat a couple of pints of the blackstuff and a good old time singsong.
Amazing 🪕
Fabulous…and the lady behind is gorgeous too
lovely
Loved it .......ta ❤
Fantastic! One of my favourite songs, whether by Al Jolson, Finbar, the Furey's or O'Donoghue's Bar. It makes me sick that I am English and found this so late in life.
Don't be hard on yourself. you are always welcome in an Irish bar.
You are a decent man to say such a thing, but you know there's no need. Some of our great patriots were English or had English heritage. We're a universal people and you would be at home among us.
@@mikki3562 As a northern prod who served to keep the peace, but who always since a teen harboured a wish for Irish unity commend you on your magnanimous words to the original poster. It's folk like you who extend the welcoming hand of friendship and kinship who will make the dream of unity a reality. Better to encourage and convince than to force and coerce.
I commend you sir.
Brilliant 🍺
Exquisite......
Forty years ago I tried one evening to get into O'Donohughe's but it was standing room only. Behind the din of conversation, I could hear a fiddle and a flute playing an Irish tune. A patron squeezed out of the crowd and said "God, you can hardly breathe in there!" It looked like I would have to fight my way to the bar, so I gave O'Donohughe's a miss. But back then you never could tell who was going to drop into the pub unannounced, maybe the likes of one of the Fury brothers, or the Chieftans, or Christie Moore, well-known singers who had played there before they became well-known. And by the way, the pub is in Merrion Row, not Suffolk Street.
Hi Bill there are 2 pubs in the same area with the same name, both are famous for music, the address for this one is correct 👍
@@realirishmusic Did O' Donohughe expand his operation? I wouldn't be surprised. I went back to Merrion Row a couple times and still couldn't get in and I don't recall the one on Suffolk St. being there. (A good location to capture the Trinity crowd.) There were a few popular watering holes back then but O'Donohughes had to be the busiest of them all. Cheers from Victoria British Columbia.
That I'm not sure, Greetings to Victoria, British Columbia Bill, you know your way around Dublin. 😊
lovely
UP IRELAND ❤
Give the lady on the banjo a kiss from me xx
I loved the banjo! I tip my hat to you mam
I almost started to tearing up listening to this beautiful Irish folk song, Feeling my Scott's Irish ancestry blood flowing through my veins, Lady playing the banjo was absolutely amazing
The banjo player is top women .
Love it❤
Nice...❤
Wonderful.... But I nearly cried watching that pint almost go off
What a lovely piece on the banjo to embellish the gentle singer.
Played to encourage the singer not to drown not to outrun
Great manners if she played all night I would only be too
Glad to enjoy. I hope she appears again
Thank you for sharing
Lovely.
Too good 😊 GBU
Gorgeous
Why are they singing in English and not Gaelic (Irish)?
Cop yoursel on Gio ....this is 2022 and we in 🇮🇪 are No.1 ballad singers END OF STORY
@@davidcoughlan3619 That isobvious. But it was a question. Why Irish ballads are sung in English and not in Irish? What is your knowledge of Irish?
@@Lepanto2024 Really sad indeed! I am Italian and collect works and language courses for Irish.Thus I am more interested in it than Irish people. Really sad.
(Perfect Italan, in any case)
@@Lepanto2024 I am from Liguria! Did you live just in Genoa? Genovese was the language of my mother!
I sometimes watch "Ros na Run" on YT. An effort to a rebirth of the language.
How popular is it by the Irish?
@@Lepanto2024 Are you present on this video? How could I recognize you (guitarrist, accordion-player, singer)?
Irish language is thus condamned to extinction?
