Ima say it again.
Sarah knows when to sing and gracefully fades to the background when she knows she's not the center.
Amazing.
RIP Shane MacGowan. Listening on repeat today
The best Xmas song bar none. RIP Kirsty MacColl, can't believe its been 17 years - and thanks to all the performers of this stirring version
pyrotechnic5254 Any song’s a Christmas song if you play it at Christmas.
Curse you, pandemic, for ending Live from here, one of the brightest spots in current times.
This song is a masterpiece
The original yes...not those who loose the soul of the song...
@@keithwigley1256 Spot on.
Sarah Jarosz plays her music with such an infectious joy, she has very quickly jumped to the top of my favorite artists.
My all time 23.12. Tradition:
Searching this song on UA-cam and listen to all these beautiful versions!
Will never get tired doing this!
Merry Christmas to all of you! 🎄❤️
Man, what a lineup for my all-time favorite Christmas song.

Was dull compared to the original ..but thats how our music in Britain seems to have gone , no real hunger , watered down musical aperthy....like our television and the way most of our radio stations have gone...no real guts or creativity...boring..
The Irishman Shane McGowan wrote and sang this song..rip
This song and why it moves me and others.
I am in NYC, Christmas Eve, I am ten years old and have walked outside from a hotel apartment block thimgie, I am wearing a (unbetween known to me,) a tweed coat, cause its really cold.
At 42nd and 3rd., theres a cop directing traffic.
He blows a whistle and stops all, in every direction. He walks over to me and says "where did ya get that jacket ?" I shrug, cause I dont no. ". He says thats a "Donnegal Tweed." and your an Aussie, am I right?. cause I am kinda lost and so he gives me direction back to the hotel, blows a whistle and all the cars and others are moving again. Big thanks here from me to the NYPD albeit it some 60 years late and thankfull for him being Irish.
Oh, This is the Fairytale of New York cover I've ever seen !
What a worthy tribute. Drives this old 200pounder to tears.
And now I'm crying. Beautiful.
Beautiful . thank you 🔺🔺🔺
The amount of talent Chris packs on the stage during these Live from Here performances is unreal
This is so beautiful! You guys are great and this song needs more exposure in the United States even now! Thanks for this!
Caught this live, stunning! The 3 part harmony on the "Well so could anyone" line breaks my heart
milliewray mine too! the wonderful staves!
So they where alive when singing it ?
exactly!
They are killing the song
@@ballyogan18 Nonsense, how are they killing the song when they're not singing it 🤡
It’s a great song no matter how you arrange it and sing it !’ Great version!
The Staves are bloody brilliant!
Not with this ...dull..
I want to create a time machine just to go back and raise Jeff Tweedy's mic stand by six inches.
@Jerome Maxim definitely, have been using InstaFlixxer for since november myself :)
these lyrics are so good and this cover. Drink it in all.
Like there was ever a pub that could have commanded this level of talent.
Spectacular. The Staves are wonderful on this!
If you're going to sing a song, sing it. All of it.
Yes
A bit of a cop out.
Pretty sweet cover other than that, tho.
I will be forever in debt to the Staves for giving this Christmas gift to Mr. Thille & us.
Ya, ya, ya, PBS shows have certain rules the artistes, (including Chris{tmas} Thile), may have some issues with, and yet, ..., and yet, the show must go on.
--- they have fun,
--- --- sharing a true gem,
--- --- --- with a huge audience
If you love live {from here} music & song you know they are never the same twice.
There are dozens 'n dozens of critics, (not artists), going on & on about; censorship, changed meanings, soul lacking pointless version, etc, etc, ad nauseam, ...
Well, y'all may be confusing 'your' critics opinion - with - universal artistic reality.
try loving this radio song, like life, on life's terms ... ❤& 🦆's
Love!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’d never actually heard this song before and this was an awesome first impression! Love the harmonies particularly.
So had you been living in a monastery.?the original is wey better and has real soul to it..
@@keithwigley1256 Dude no, this version being beautiful only makes the original shine on even more, and what a perfect example of it.
@@keithwigley1256 and shuddup I heard the original first in a cheesey movie and I didn't live in a monastery. I lived in a Catholic boarding school from age four and it was a giant rip off they taught us every Christmas song except this one.
This song is fire!!
Dull boring ....wake up ...
My absolute favorite Christmas tune, Bravo, the Pogues would be proud of your rendition!! Thank you!
What an amazing version... Thank you.
What make of hearing aid do you use ?
Sanitised song - not to offend our US evangelicals. So great to live in the UK where free speech and free art still means something.
This is the radio friendly version.
Love this song and that was a brilliant version 👏👏👏👏
Agreed. This is song is a masterpiece. Beautifully done by this amazing band. My favorite Christmas song by far. It never fails to amaze me how just a few common chords we have all played a million times, can be forged once again into something new and emotionally powerful.
What emotion...it was tame ..lame..and lacked soul of the original...no real guts to it...
@@keithwigley1256 Oh well. can't please everyone! Only pleased one of the worlds greatest mandolin players...Thile. And got a standing ovation from the huge crowd....
@@AlBergstein And left out a verse. I'm in between you and Mr Wigley; this was nice but the original is a stunner
Wow - I’ve heard so many versions and this is a new best! So joyous!
Rich Dworski should be mentioned. He strapped on his box and then added a lot.
Love the Tweedy and Thile and gang collaboration. Would love to see them do an album in the future!
The best of the numerous covers floating around by far. Job well done!
lol, thile at 3:29. love this rendition of the song. beautifully done.
Zzzzzzzzz zzzzzzzźz ...
Thanks for this gem!
Wake up
When is someone going to make a movie of this song?
There is a documentary about the writing of this song. Very interesting and fun to watch,
Would be the best Christmas movie ever 😍
The "official video" lays the groundwork. Check it out: ua-cam.com/video/j9jbdgZidu8/v-deo.html
FFS, what a brilliant job..thanks!
Where's the effin' second verse Tweedy!?!
Very well done! Excellent version.
Perfect Christmas song
The original ..yes..
Love it
Wonderful! Merry Christmas all.
Dull..
Ahhh.. The sanitized version. Kind of like the Righteous Brothers version of "Hey Joe" or "Heroin". I guess it was family night or something.
too sweet
Go down well in Waitrose...
Wonderful! Nice job! 😄
You guys did this song a great justice! Perfect
You will never beat the original by The Pogues and Kirsty (RIP), especially when leaving out part of the song.
I can understand the lyrics being problematic from the oroginal but have heard plenty of versions that sub in different terms.
It was dull ..they have no real experience of the original..
So good!
First I thought: Also a nice version. Then I realised they “forgot” a verse.
And lost a huge part of the impact and point of the song. Presumably an editorial decision to avoid possible "offence".
It was live radio... still have to keep the FCC happy.
@@delewan What is FCC?
@@JensErikWeber The Federal Communications Commission - it's a Government watchdog office that makes sure American radio and television are sterile and free of bad words that might offend puritanical listeners. I get that they don't want really bad stuff getting out there, but sometimes they're a bit over-reactive about songs and music. It was not an editorial decision to leave out that verse, but a necessary one to avoid fines, unfortunately.
This song got unedited airplay for many years until the virtue police came for it. Makes you wonder what the original 3rd verse was to Silent Night…
Brilliant! RIP Kirsty.
This was a heartless rendition, if you want to see and hear a heartfelt rendition check out the Shane Patrick Lysaght MacGowan funeral service version.
Good Cover
Great version. The girls were magic.
What a show this must have been.
Versione molto bella di un capolavoro di canzone.
I still miss Kirsty.
No one should ever try to cover a Shane McGowan song. I adore Sarah J, but Shane is on a different level.
Yes this is a dull version lacking real life ...dull , boring zzzzzzz
❤😮
It
Gabe is the man
Is there anyway that LFH can come back? It was just the best.
I cant believe this show is over :( SO sad.
You didn't tell the whole story...
I was about to say it's a great version but it lacks the boozy, messy charm of the original. Then I realized they'd pulled that verse. Pity!
Yes, they cowardly skipped a politically incorrect verse. It’s not art when you pander. Sad.
As great as this is, everyone check out Punch Brothers doing it on Saturday Sessions at CBS. Transcendent.
I love this!
Why ?
People who skip over that third stanza should not be permitted to sing the song.
Agreed! You either do the song as written or you are ignoring the human condition of imperfection. People are beautiful, and ugly. They love, they laugh and they hate. Skipping the lyrics because they might offend is dishonest.
@@thumpdrum I think changing the lyric, which others have done, is dishonest and self serving. Skipping it is perfectly fine. People have been skipping verses of songs that don't suit their audience for centuries, and it does no harm to the original. Unless you're going to give a short lecture on the cultural context of using that word before you sing the song, it makes no sense as a decent human being to sing it as written in public anymore.
@@audibletapehiss3764 I disagree. It is merely a form of censorship. You're being dishonest to yourself and the audience. It's song not meant to depict a perfect scenario or a perfect life. You are only telling half the story not to mention publicly judging the authors choice of words. There is a choice here. One is to simply not do the song which is fine. The other is to do it correctly.
@@thumpdrum I would be with you if they ever tried to pull the original song down. But to skip the verse that will violently offend your audience is neither censorship nor dishonest. This is a song, not a history book. (see also: Star Spangled Banner). In fact, they rarely play entire songs on this show. The choice I'd have made as a singer is to sing the verse, but mime the offending word. Anyone paying attention will know exactly what goes there, but you will have shown respect to your audience, which sorry to say, is a lot more important than respecting the lyric. And I'm saying this about what I consider to be one of the greatest songs of all time.
@@audibletapehiss3764 We'll have to agree to disagree. Merriest of Holidays to you and yours.
If people are offended by the words of any song or book then don’t listen to the song or read the book.
why skipping a whole verse??
The three ladies on the right remind me of the Roches
Its half a song version...
Where is THE most important section??? Why miss it out? TOO SCARED TO SING IT????
started comidecaly really didn't apreacite.. but proceeded with class respect.
A lot of people here really upset that you wouldn't sing a slur they use on the regular...
It’s tough to deal with that one verse, and I guess this was fairly elegant censorship, but it’s still censorship.
Why doesn’t Jeff just raise the mic a little?
Re past comment, if you like the real deal, Tom Waits live is gut wrenching as is Nick Cave with his mate Shane McGowan, you would not be listening to this most poingant song. Check out waits cover of waltizing Matilada
Well done...but... have the courage to sing the goddamn second verse.
A FUCKING MEN
I totally agree .....
re: 2nd verse when kirsty and shane performed it live on tv in the 90s they said 'you're cheap and you're haggard' - the whole politically correct argument is stupid all round
@@JoshuaRoss2 well done. This song is a piece of art of all times. Reality, man! Fuckin' reality! Stop language terror!
Musically it's very good however the songs soul is that of two substance abusers. If you felt uncomfortable with the F word that could be changed but the fighting and the back and fourth is really what the song is about its not the typical Holly jolly Christmas song
Missing part ?? Why ???
They don't have the courage to sing a certain f word; no, not that one.
The FCC.
Censored ?
Brilliant version Who is that lady, lovely voice BUT they've cleaned it up somewhat lol
Please don't invite me to any of your musical parties ... Will fall asleep..
For one of the many unexpurgated versions: ua-cam.com/video/FtHJI9_isFk/v-deo.html From Ireland in 2018.
Is someone just messing with Jeff? That mic stand surely goes up.
Thanks for this version, you've made Jon Bon Jovi sound much better.
You should be ashamed of this. A travesty. Best Christmas song ever and they wimped out of the original.
People say that this is best Christmas song ever! Surely not, as there isn't even one mention of baby Jesus. What were they thinking!
Terrific version but missing a verse
❄️ version
Ok, brilliant musicians, of course, but whre are the lyrics?
Ya shooda sung it all, ya gobshytes.
Artist should be able to identify a literary trope used to express redemption for the unredeemable, that fact that the difference between a comment made externally to an audience and a comment made internally to another character in the song as a literary device cannot be distinguished is a disgrace. Hasn't anyone ever read Joyce?
Shame. You shouldn't be playing this song if you don't understand it.
Where is the good part?
Chis ..its better when you have done it with you and just the lady on acoustic ..more believable..
sing it the right way
Only thumbs up are from Murcins who think they're Irish!
Doesn't matter who your dad was, being Irish isn't a genetic entitlement, you either get it or you don't.
If you think this is good, you definitely don't.
whether you like covers or not they are really showing respect for the songwriter, otherwise why cover them?
re: 2nd verse when kirsty and shane performed it live on tv in the 90s they said 'you're cheap and you're haggard' - the whole politically correct argument is stupid all round
If you love this song just because of one verse, you are just as pathetic as someone hates it just for one verse
