I'm stuck in Spain because of lockdown restrictions and these songs by Luke are reminding my heart of my dear auld Dublin, Ireland. I have tears in my eyes missing home. My Father passed away last year and he reared us on ballads and stories of the good auld days, tales of Bimbo Baghins from Sean Mc Dermott tenements, tales of Ted Fureys father who was a rag n bone man. Oh how I miss home 🇮🇪❤️🙏
Thank you kellyoneill. Hopefully this isn’t your last upload, as you have truly given so much to us admirers of the immortal Luke Kelly. And if this is your last, as it looks like it may be, I give you the deepest thanks my heart can give and wish you good health. May God hold you in the palm of his hand.
@darrin42 Omg Hey! Of course I remember you, I was on your page only the a couple of weeks ago to see if you are still active, Really great to hear from you. Hope all is well for you x
I think this is the most powerful song of all time. No song can quite change someone's entire concept of grief like this one can. It tells you that you cannot move on from a loved one's death, if you stay in the past with them like they are still alive. How can you? You've basically tricked yourself into living when they were. This song tells us all that in order to miss someone who is gone, "love where we used to walk" we must "make ourselves content until death calls us away". For we cannot miss that which is not gone.
Merry Christmas Kelly and I hope u have a prosperous new year! Thank u for all these great uploads over the years, you deserve a few Christmas wishes :)
Kellyoneill, where to find the full documentary of Luke Kelly and JC superstar on Google video? is it still there? Thanks so much for posting the various clips.
The wind doth blow today my love A few small drops of rain Never have I had but one true love In cold clay she is lain I'll do as much for my true love As any young man may I'll sit and mourn all on her grave A twelvemonth and a day The twelve month and a day been gone A voice spoke from the deep "Who is it sits all on my grave And will not let me sleep?" "'Tis I, 'Tis I, thine own true love Who sits upon your grave For I crave one kiss from your sweet lips And that is all I seek" "You crave one kiss from my clay-cold lips But my breath is earthy strong! Had you one kiss from my clay cold lips You're time would not be long" "My time be long, my time be short Tomorrow or today May God in heaven have all my soul But I'll kiss your lips of clay" "See down in yonder garden green Love, where we used to roam The sweetest flower that ever grew Is withered to the stalk" "The stalk is withered dry, my love So will our hearts decay So make yourself content, my love 'Til death calls you away"

Dear Kelly, thanks for your amazing uploads. I love this tune and even as I am writing this I realise I am hearing this anew. Thank you 💚
Luke Kelly is the greatest and there will never be another - thank you Kelly
Excellent

Luke's sounding great here. Love his patter at the start, too - and that photo of him. It's from a chord songbook, isn't it?
It is indeed :)

ooooh very beautiful
The wind doth blow today my love
A few small drops of rain
Never have I had but one true love
In cold clay she is lain
I'll do as much for my true love
As any young man may
I'll sit and mourn all on her grave
A twelvemonth and a day
The twelve month and a day been gone
A voice spoke from the deep
"Who is it sits all on my grave
And will not let me sleep?"
"'Tis I, 'Tis I, thine own true love
Who sits upon your grave
For I crave one kiss from your sweet lips
And that is all I seek"
"You crave one kiss from my clay-cold lips
But my breath is earthy strong!
Had you one kiss from my clay cold lips
You're time would not be long"
"My time be long, my time be short
Tomorrow or today
May God in heaven have all my soul
But I'll kiss your lips of clay"
"See down in yonder garden green
Love, where we used to roam
The sweetest flower that ever grew
Is withered to the stalk"
"The stalk is withered dry, my love
So will our hearts decay
So make yourself content, my love
'Til death calls you away"
I've often heard that a slow tempo and measured song is the hardest to sing.
Luke doesn't sing this song... he weeps it.
Does anyone know where Kelly O'Neill went? :(
