Every New Years Eve we watch this and it never gets tired .And we all miss Jimmy because besides being an incredible singer he sure knew how to add some humor to the show.All the best everyone in 2014
This stuff takes serious talent. The Irish Rovers are excellent musicians and a ton of fun to watch on stage. It's all come full circle for me, grew up ignoring them on TV, but something must have clicked as now I'm playing their music in an amazing band!
I'm watching this and comparing it to the average live performance talent today and this is just unbelievable. I've never seen anyone pull something like this off live in any recent year
This song is a CLASSIC. It appeared on their 1972 recording 'The Irish Rovers Live', taped on the set of their 1970's TV show at CBC in Vancouver. I can still remember hearing it when I saw these guys almost 15 years ago, at Will Millar's last appearance - it was JUST AS GREAT!

This is the only song I've ever heard by the Rovers where Joe actually sings a couple lines of lead with the rest of the guys on a fast song. Can any other Rovers "experts" confirm this?

Did you watch it this last new year, ten years later?

They're part of a childhood I never had!

I love the Irish Rovers.
Never knew The Irish Rovers were based in Canada until I found out Shel Silverstein wrote The Unicorn.
Wow what a song m indian and💓 this so much

Hi person
This will become a legendary meme one day.
Company!
Brewer!
Landlord!
Daughter!
If I tried to sing something like that I'd be digging my tongue out of my ear.
Imagine having to take a drink before singing the list
@@sadlobster1 and downing the whole thing if you can't do it in one breath!
Jimmy damn near fell lol. Rest In Peace Jimmy Ferguson.
When someone says white people can’t rap
Super manly song
Loved you and followed you since, the Unicorn came out
Happy St Paddy’s 🍀Slainte lads 🍻

thank yu for the lyrics
Failed I have...
Even knowing all the lyrics well, this is impossibly difficult to sing at speed.
Hey everyone all the best in 2015,go Jimmy go
A good ol' English tune :)
Sounds like Dublin pub crawl
Just plain love all of it.
best ever
This is the only song I've ever heard by the Rovers where Joe actually sings a couple lines of lead with the rest of the guys on a fast song. Can any other Rovers "experts" confirm this?
'The Rattling Bog' is another one where he does. It's on UA-cam.
Will Millar- barre
