- Rainy Night In Soho is one of the best songs ever written, it’s miles better than Fairytale of New York (still a great song to be fair) and it’s just the perfect song. Possibly my favourite Pogues song alongside Body of An American. There are many great versions of this song but Sinead O Connor’s version here is superb and one of my all time favourite covers. • Sinead O'Connor 'Nothi...
The above paragraph was what I had written as a template when I recorded this video a few weeks before Shane MacGowan died, alongside a handful of other pogues/irish tunes that I love that are coming later this week. When he died, I was in Istanbul and the news was delivered to me as my plane landed. Was gutted but considered pulling these videos as I didn’t want it to appear trite. Then I remembered I’d released Sickbed just a few days before.
I adored Shane and to me he is one of the greatest songwriters of all time. I had the pleasure of seeing him live with The Pogues many many times and I’m so thankful for those nights. I miss seeing them live annually so so much but it wasn’t quite the same without Phil Chevron anyway. I know they toured and released albums without Shane but I just don’t see it happening. RIP Shane. I’ve been loving you a long time
Thank you for watching

Great version.
Thank you!
A song the Irish and its people will sing for the next 200+ years. RIP, Shane, good job.
Absolutely. Great songs last more than a lifetime don’t they? Shane wrote several but also performed so many he didn’t write that will also stand the test of time. Love him
Perfect!
Thank you for watching!
Beautiful Sam
Thank you mate. Had some great times over the years listening to Shane’s music with you, both live and at my old place. What a legacy he’s left
Shane McGowan eat your heart out !- best version I have ever heard - well done !
Wow that is high praise, thank you! I love him. I was rocked by the news of his passing knowing I'd recorded this just days before. This is my favourite version of Rainy Night in Soho. Probably in my top 10 covers of all time, check it out if you haven't heard it before ua-cam.com/video/ocjxFunwQNE/v-deo.html
Love the spacious sound. I too aspire to this song.
I master the audio before I upload it and use a stereo spread plug in for the width. Thank you for noticing!
Absolutely perfect version of that great song Sam. We'll done, you can rightly feel very proud.
Thank you mate, glad you enjoyed it.
Gosh that's nice
Decent respectful version.
Thank you Charlie, I recorded this before Shane passed. It was actually the passing of Sinead O Connor that prompted me to finally get this right as her version blows me away every time. Thank you for listening
No problem, all the best bud. 👍
