Greetings from Czech republic, the land of Saint Wenceslas ❤️🇨🇿🇨🇿🇨🇿
Is winter harsh there? Considering the song lyrics it seems it was a bit intense like where I live (from USA Wisconsin)
@@user-re1ek5mc5l sadly, in the olden days was. Now we are lucky when there even snows on winter
Greetings from Canada. To The Czech Republic, the land of Saint Wenceslas. I Love this. MERRY CHRISTMAS.
Merry Christmas from Canada.
My favourite saint! Blessings to you from Canada.
Get the egg nog ready...
I got alcohol poisoning. Not from the nog, from the music
EGGNOG!!!!
In the 1980's when I was a "pool boy", I had a wonderful Irish couple as customers. They gifted me with some home made Irish Creme. It was fire! I think of them still.
Thanks for all who joined us for the Premiere - we had people from all corners of the world. Please send this to your friends and family who are missing Christmas carolling. We'll do more. Slainte ALL!
yeah
WONDERFUL
@@augustsmith9553 somehow your comments on me channel got autoflagged or something but they was funny as fuck 😂
Cheers
This is my favorite Christmas song. So happy you guys made an updated version of it. Thank you!
I am so
I love traditional Christmas music sung and played in the Irish style! It's warm, like being in a jolly pub.
I’m Czech and Irish ☘️ great song!
This is my favorite Christmas Carol. I always took the message to heart, and I volunteer with charity organizations year round. My sons volunteered at my side from the time they were small. We still volunteer. It’s a blessing.
Mine also. Something about it grabbed me as a little kid in the 1960's and it's never left me.
Nollaig Shona Daoibh, gentlemen! This version of the old tune greatly warms my heart, though I only have one regret: In my part of the States, though it’s often notorious for snow, there’s none to be had this year. Perhaps good King Wenceslas is wearing bigger boots on his trek.
Slianté to you and a happy new year!
So far is my all time favorite cover of this underused Christmas song.
Yes, but a "cover"?
If so, who did the original that it's covering?
@@theon9575 What do you mean?
@@theon9575 Maybe because they changed the tune
@@theon9575 Cover because they changed the melody ig.
Merry Christmas to The Irish Rovers!
A very Merry Christmas to you Dylan - will you be with us tomorrow?
@@TheIrishRovers I hope to be there tomorrow. If I am see you then.
A great way to meet up with friends and family far away. And the words will be on the screen so easy to singalong.
Yes! Sing loud and sing proud.
when me and my family go out to look at Christmas lights on Christmas Eve, this will be the song we play on loop in the car
For the first time in my life, I have unironically liked a Christmas Carol. Thank you so much!
Stay strong men stay strong
Absolutely, stay strong. We're looking forward to the time when we look out at you from the stage, and it will happen as soon as it's safe for everyone.
@@TheIrishRovers ima miss you guys once you stop making music but as you guys once said music lives for ever and we’ll have a song you men shall live in our hearts forever no matter what
I get a great visualization of friends singing this in a pub. Thanks!
Especially if it involves a karaoke machine
In my schooldays, when we sang this song in choir class at this time of year, we found it more amusing to sing ....
".... thou shall find the Winter's rage freeze thy balls less coldly." 🎵🎶
Looking forward to listening and singing! Happy holidays!
Happy holidays to you too SP.
Did you know Sierra Nevada brews a Narwhal imperial stout? My wife came up with the idea of doing 25 beers in an Advent style arrangement for me (chocolate and ornaments for the kids of course) and that was one I received last night! Great timing!
Now THAT'S a good ideaa.
Thank you for the music and happy holidays to all! Sea shanties and spiced rum - that's our choice for the upcoming Christmas!
what a christmas it is without irish rovers!
Merry Christmas, gentlemen! Your music is a blessing, as always.
i really like all this can not wait to see rovers live again
I’m pretty exited, I love you guys
Get the spiced rum ready...
Merry Christmas to you guys too 🎄. Stay happy and healthy and keep playing that great music of the season we all love.
what a great Christmas song! ^^, sounds so soothing and heart brightening! :) cant wait to let my friends and I dance to this, just sounds so perfect for the holidays , wonderful!
Hell yeah! New song just in time for the seasons, as expected from the greatest band of all time. :)
Irish accent is officially my favorite accent in the world. The awesome Irish accents makes this song even more awesome.

One of my Favorite Christmas Songs about doing a Good Deed Hail to Good King Wenceslas
Merry Christmas to everyone here!
Anyone from the UK or Ireland joining in? I'm getting my Christmas cocktail ready.
There were many from UK, Romania, Spain and abroad.
Good big Fenian, Wenceslas was.
Hey thanks for this!
How interesting! Here it is meat that goes with wine, but I have seen "flesh" (wine and flesh sounds to me like a religious connection to the Eucharist/Lord's Supper) and also even "mead"!
The tune does feel like it goes well with the Irish accents! Haha.
such a jolly rollicking version
Greetings from Morris Plains USA and have a Merry Christmas everyone!
Excelente 👏
🍀
God bless the Irish rovers
1 DAY WOOHOOOOOOOO :) !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
See you sooooooon!
@@TheIrishRovers Yes I joined livestream
This has always felt to me like one of the finest examples of goodly human kindness. The very idea that a wealthy and powerful man might care for the less fortunate seems to be an entirely lost dream in the United States of today.
Deep in the finnish sea of forest, almost the sae as the irish sea of green ;)
Greetings from Russia! Thanks for the cheerful mood! Your songs are always great and highly enjoyable! I wish you all the best!
Best wishes to you in Russia, and thanks for joining us. Slainte!
First Irish rovers song I ever heard
'82?
we're in like Flynn
St Wenceslaus pray for us
I love this rendition of the carol. But this is a different video than the one that originally came up on UA-cam when I was searching out various versions of the song.
🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🇨🇦
Christmas in Killarney!
Hello to everyone, absolutely love how you sang this song, anyone have to recommend some with similar rythm and style? 😁😁❤️🥰
If you listen closely you can here the tune is the same as Bells Over Belfast, the lyrics are different though. Nice song 🙂
3 days
now one day!
@@TheIrishRovers YES I CANT WAIT IT WOOO
No I missed it! I’m sad now
You didn't miss it. It was just he first time. There always must be a first time. Now, play on and SING!
I know what DO NOT RESUSITATE means, now in future. I shall stay out. Dead on my feet is my fate, keep in out of fates way. 101 H &S love❤
24th of December. Make it to sunrise on Christmas we go.
The true story behind Wenceslas is actually pretty dark. He was a pious king who was murdered by his own brother, Boleslaus the Cruel, on his way to a feast in his honor.
😃☃️🎄💖😎
ba da bum!
It is an Irish band yet I hear some traces of Czech music
should ay ever need to witness some finnish hospitality i have the perfect place for ye
This is obviously Yoda's favorite.

I’m trying to find out what year The Irish Rovers produced the video of Good King Wenceslas where they are outside in the snow and appear from behind a monument. One of the four singers is wearing a red and white Santa Claus hat in the video. I really like the enthusiasm they/you put into singing it!!!!!!!!! At the end of the video, two of the singers splash beer on each other from cups!!!!😀
It is not the Irish Rovers in the video you are mentioning. But they are using our recording.
@@TheIrishRovers
That is Terrible that they are using your recording!!!!! 😫😩🙁🙁 & All sorts of people are commenting on the video assuming that they are watching your group!!!! Unfortunately, at least three different people who have UA-cam channels have that same video on their channel. Do you want me to report each of those channels to UA-cam? Or maybe your lawyer can sue whoever is pretending to be your group in those videos.
irish people are the closest we get to hobbits
The Irish are what we get if the hobbits had to be insurgents for 400 years
Is this a song about our czech king Wenceslas? I know he was proclaimed a saint by the christians.
Yes, it is.
@@TheIrishRovers Now that's cool!
Got a couple of questions about this rendition of this song.
Why did you change the lyrics "Bring me flesh, and bring me wine,
bring me pine logs hither: Thou and I shall see him dine, when we bear them thither." to "Bring me meat, and bring me wine,
bring me pine logs hither:
Thou and I will see him dine, when we bear them thither."?
Also, was it intentionally to spell Page as Paige, as a Page is: "A page or page boy is traditionally a young male attendant or servant, but may also have been used for a messenger at the service of a nobleman." (-Wikipedia)?
I could care less about these, it just weirds me out that these things stuck out.
Good shite
Jooow im to drink ant still 3 hours to waut packing ma jd honey fur thia
🎶Good King Wenceslas was not
Like the carol you sing
Didn't help peasants, that's rot🤢
Was a Duke, not a King🤴
He didn't collect firewood🔥
Nor trudge through the cold snow🌨
Though that story is quite good
The truth we think you should know
Born in 907 AD
He came from Bohemia🇵🇱
And spread Christianity✝️
To people near and far
But what happened to the Duke🤷♂️
Not nice to discover
This next bit may make you puke🤮
Murdered by his brother🗡🎶🎶
Sooo very 😢!
is it story ? is it song ? don't care - it's a good s** 🤣
