@@cakescurrah the power of music and good acting, my friend. Sometimes, the moment feels so real that the emotions you feel are real and that Melos make the scene really feel alive.
@@hotpocketoverlord7800 Hey, come on The fact that you admit that you have a way to go means you are already on your way to be a better person than you ever were...
@@adonut81 i feel like i’m drowning and i have no idea how to pull myself out. i’ve pulled myself out once before but i don’t know if i have the strength to do it again.
I remember when my daughter died the funeral home lady asked me how I was feeling and I told her "it's not something you get better from you just learn to live with it." It's been about a year and a half since and unfortunately those words are still true. I'm sorry my baby girl daddy loves you.
Rest in Peace Mako Iwamatsu. I will always remember how you brought Uncle Iroh to life and the memories you brought to me of my father how he used to be before his passing. Thank you for producing this cover!
@@davididiart5934 I actually read something about Irish and Irish diaspora people being more prone to depression and mental illness than other ethnic groups because of generational trauma.
I see this on my recommended videos after discovering Colm just earlier today, and I immediately think "My heart won't be able to handle this." And then I clicked it anyway.
My grandfather was in the Air Force, I was lucky enough for him to come marching home. It’s been 2 years since he passed peacefully in his sleep. I still miss him.

I grew up watching Avatar with my little siblings. My little brother, well... Left us behind last summer. I haven't been able to watch Avatar sense. I've been steeling myself since I saw this premier in my subscriptions. Steel as I might... I was still not prepared. Thank you for this.
I watched this with my siblings too. My brother is in rehab for drug use. This is my primary song for nostalgia and mourning purposes. Many blessings to you brother. You are important ,and you are a much stronger person than me.
@@hansgetzeflammenwerfer8090 My heart goes out to you and I hope rehab helps. I'm not stronger than anyone, but we are all stronger together. Thank you for your kind words. You are important too.
I am a US Army Veteran. I have lost Brethren. This song hits hard every time. It is physically impossible for me to listen to it and not cry. And this rendition is the best I have ever heard, equal to the original.
I've never imagined what Asian music played by Irish instruments sounded like until now! Now I'm so excited to to hear you compose Kung Fu Panda's soundtrack next 💚 Stay handsome & gold, laddie! 🍻
I can understand why people don't cover this often, it's Makos song and he already delivered it near perfectly. No one else could live up to it. But I see this as a way of honoring his legacy rather than trying to outdo him, I know Mako would've loved this cover if he was around to see it.
Asian music? Series co-creator Michael Dante Dimartino wrote the lyrics, and the music was done by Jeremy Zuckerman. Which of those two guys was Asian?
No WAY is colm this cool! I use to look everywhere for covers of this song that I loved and I already know he’s going to deliver in ways no one else can! This is beyond amazing and has made my day 1000x better.
I literally got chills when I saw this!!! I am so excited! I’m going to need it to be released to the music streaming services soon! I’ll listen to it all the time!!!
That was a gem of an episode. Idk who wrote the story for that episode, but they were definitely going through some things. Even now I'm tearing up just remembering and feeling Iroh's pain. 😢
The voice actor for iron died and it was a kind of homage to him and the switch from his va to another it was the last episode with his voice rip mako iwamatsu
OK, how much of the emotion is from the show and how much is from the fact this is just plain a banger of a song? Regardless, Thank you. this is now my favorite cover.
I usually don't comment on your vids because i am just listening to them and enjoying your art, but I had to comment on this one. I am sitting outside, smoking my cigharette and the only things I hear are the smolder of the tobacco and your voice echoing in my soul. I watched ATLAS when I was a kid. Now I am 20, far away from home, alone, fighting my way trough life on my journey, all alone to become the best version of myself. I recently started watching ATLAS again and it struck me how full this series is with wisdom. Especially if it comes to Iroh. I don't really feel lonely often, but this one struck home like nothing else. I am fighting tears. Not because I am sad, its just that the memories of the past came back when I listened to you singing. I have been following your channel for a long time now and I wanted to tell you how much I appreciate it. Please don't stop what you are doing. Kindest regards from just a guy, sitting outside in the dark, smoking, looking at the moon and singing along.
Loved that ever so slight nod to the actual ATLA original soundtrack added to this other iconic cover soundtrack *chefs kiss* 2:32 to 2:47 on the violin
CHILLS. Am currently guiding a friend through her first watch through, and I am probably a bad person for looking forward to how badly this song is going to shatter her soul.
I love seeing other Avatar fans create and show support for the series so long after it's completion. Your amazing voice and the story of Mako make this such an amazing piece. Excellent work 👍
Everytime I listen to this I just burst into tears because uncle iroh was an inspiration to me and this song helps me remember all my grandparents that have past and how they always called me their brave little soldier boy because I loved everything military since I was little even though I couldn't join due to my autism. Thank you Colm Mccuiness for keeping Uncle Irohs memory alive this is amazing I appreciate everything you do from the bottom of my heart thank you.
We need an instrumental version of this so we can just sing it to ourselves and cry while we have it on repeat for 12 hours... Spirits let your soul rest, Iroh... More of a father than I never knew I had....This earl grey is for you.
Shamrocks on the vine, grew green and grand Now none but stems remain, plucked by a tyrants hand Little soldier boy, taken from home Forced into a land, that's not his own. Leaves from the vine, from branches grown Drifting slowly down, resting on the loam Little soldier boy, used to laugh and run Brave soldier boy, he's learned to hold a gun Ash in the snow, falling so slow Like fragile broken hearts, with no place to go Little soldier boy, from dignity was torn So brave soldier boy, rose up one Easter morn'.
A man dying of cancer weeping to himself as he sings, or quadruple vocals under a lute, flute and violin..? I don't know, but one makes me cry just a touch harder 😭 Either way, this was absolutely gorgeous, thank you Colm
Every day that goes past is a day closer to me loosing my Granddad. He's 91 now, it's a good age, but I don't think I'll ever be ready. He's the Iroh to my Zuko, and I'm sure when he goes I'm going to be heartbroken. I'll be back here if I ever need a good cry. Bravo Colin.
Colm. These last 2 months you’ve been uploading have just been uplifting to my spirit. This is one of my all time favorite songs that also bring tears to my eyes. Thank you. Keep on, keeping on.
Amazing Colm. The violin definitely had centre stage, but the drums carried the show, providing a traditional military edge for our 'little soldier boy'. Thank you for the feels!
You not only hit the mood of the day perfectly, but also made a wonderful version of one of the most beautiful songs, again, of one of my favorite series.🎵🍂 Thank you very much Cap'n. 🎵🍂
am I the only one who heard Irohs voice aswell as Colms? like... fucking tears to my eyes... well done. you did it justice. Iroh would be proud. so would Makoto... both would be proud.
So Colm R McGuinness is an amazing singer & one of my TOP 3 all time favorite singers ATLA is also one of my TOP 3 favorite cartoons. THIS VIDEO JUSY BECAME MY 1st FAVORITE SONG
Dear Colm, thank you so much for your music, your voice, your art ❤this is so beautiful, this is so sad... "Little soldier boy comes marching home, brave soldier boy comes marching home..." 😭 This really tears my heart
Iroh always make me tear up, he wanted so badly for his son to be fine and when he failed he remembered the failure and tried to gently guide his nephew from the path of war and bitterness to one of maturity and calmness the Voice actor for Iroh was truly a good pick, God rest you Mako may the Lord in heaven grant you peace
listening to this i cant help to remember the episode, and this instantly brings up emotions that only few stories are able to do. It was a very good choice to do a cover of this song, and its a really good one aswell. :)
This cover came out in the same couple days as my Nana dying. I must have listened to it fifteen or twenty times in a row, just sitting there in the sadness. I still come back to it when I'm thinking of her. Thank you for this music
Ah such a sad and beautiful song. When i first heard it i never released it had a double sad meaning behind it. One for the loss of irohs son and then as a tribute song to the voice actor himself who died due to cancer. Now when ever i hear this song i cant help but get all teary eyed thinking of just how wonderful of a tribute it was. Even the guy who took over for Iroh refuses to ever sing it as iroh out of respect.
In the memory of noble sons who gave their lives in the battlefield and comfort to the fathers who grieves. Little soldier boy comes marching home, brave soldier boy comes marching home.....
I know this song is from the perspective of a parent to their child. But this version, that Colm preformed so wonderfully, sounds to me like a group of soldiers marching together singing the song their parents sang when they left home.
Amazing! I love that you are revisiting this with your added vocals. I loved your instrumental version as well, so thanks for doing both! Keep on being awesome and stay handsome!
oh my looorrrdddd, I am covered in goosebumps that was the most amazing thing ever thank you for literally blessing my day with this, you're sooooo talented :) p.s. my brother says now he's had a "best of luck" from you then he's now able to pass his 3rd year of uni lol
“While it is always best to believe in oneself, a little help from others can be a great blessing.” Uncle Iroh
It's a good thing this is a premier, because it allows us to prepare our minds for the emotional damage 🥲
I had to come back after the premier because I thought I was ready.
I was N O T.
🤣🤣💯facts
@@G1ng3rG4m1ng same.
Man this song always get me, does not matter how prepared you think you are
Rest in Peace Mako
Happy birthday my son, if only I could have helped *you*
Leaves from the vine
Falling so slow
Like fragile, tiny shells
Drifting in the foam
Little. . . soldier boy
Comes marching home
Brave. . .soldier boy
Comes marching hoooooome
Edit: I wish Mako could have seen this
Indeed
i'm still crying, man
I imagine he is watching from beyond the grave and is just happy this character he played made such an impact.
The fact mako cried for real on this track always gets me
@@cakescurrah the power of music and good acting, my friend. Sometimes, the moment feels so real that the emotions you feel are real and that Melos make the scene really feel alive.
Be the person that Mr. Rogers & Uncle Iroh know you can be. ❤️
I try… and I think that’s what they would appreciate the most
i’ve tried so hard. But i don’t think i’m someone they’d be proud of at this point.

So sorry for your loss. Will keep you in my prayers.
@@jonbhorton thank you I appreciate that, stay safe out there a kind soul is always a blessing on this world.
Condolences to you and yours.
Stars watch over you and yours, friend. We watch with you.
I didn't think I was going to cry this morning. I know the grief well brother. My heart goes out to you.
Saw the title and thought, "Damn. Guess I'll break my heart today."
Stunning, Colm. Truly stunning.
Rest in Peace Mako Iwamatsu. I will always remember how you brought Uncle Iroh to life and the memories you brought to me of my father how he used to be before his passing.
Thank you for producing this cover!
My husband just said "why are you listening to the saddest song?" and I said "Cause it's an Irish version :') "
And boy do the Irish understand tragedy.
We are a sorrowful people, the Irish.
@@davididiart5934 so are we jews but we come back stronger like our irish brethren
Ok wow, this explains why Irish beer is so great
@@davididiart5934
I actually read something about Irish and Irish diaspora people being more prone to depression and mental illness than other ethnic groups because of generational trauma.
I see this on my recommended videos after discovering Colm just earlier today, and I immediately think "My heart won't be able to handle this."
And then I clicked it anyway.
Uncle Iroh would be so proud of you.
Thank you Colm.
🫖🍵Have a cup of tea for your troubles.
No matter what version, this song hits you hard and always makes you cry, such a beautiful and painful song full of love
My grandfather was in the Air Force, I was lucky enough for him to come marching home.
It’s been 2 years since he passed peacefully in his sleep. I still miss him.
One of the most touching songs in all of animation. This is going to be incredible
It really is the saddest most meaningful song in animation, Mako’s goodbye to his character
I'm feeling compelled to translate this:
Duilleoga ó na féitheacha
A thit go mall
Cosúil le sliogáiníní sobhriste
A imigh le sruth sa chúr
A shaighdiúirín buachalla
Máirseáil abhaile
Saighdiúir buachalla cróga
A mháirseáil abhaile
Somehow it seems appropriate for this song to be in another language. Adds to the magic.
I grew up watching Avatar with my little siblings. My little brother, well... Left us behind last summer. I haven't been able to watch Avatar sense. I've been steeling myself since I saw this premier in my subscriptions.
Steel as I might... I was still not prepared.

Ok day 2 of listening to this are you doing alright?(I'm here for you brother)
Uncle Iroh would be proud of this rendition. I had to watch it twice. Made me cry both times.
I am a US Army Veteran.
I have lost Brethren.
This song hits hard every time.
It is physically impossible for me to listen to it and not cry.
And this rendition is the best I have ever heard, equal to the original.
Thank you friend. "In the darkest times hope is something that you give yourself, that is the meaning of inner strength." - Iroh
Thank you for your service. You have seen things we civilians can’t imagine.
Thank you for your service sir.
Thank you
I'm not crying, you're crying. That was beautiful Colm.
I've never imagined what Asian music played by Irish instruments sounded like until now! Now I'm so excited to to hear you compose Kung Fu Panda's soundtrack next 💚 Stay handsome & gold, laddie! 🍻
I can understand why people don't cover this often, it's Makos song and he already delivered it near perfectly. No one else could live up to it. But I see this as a way of honoring his legacy rather than trying to outdo him, I know Mako would've loved this cover if he was around to see it.
An Irish folk cover of Oogway Ascends wasn't something I realized I needed to hear until I read this comment.
Leaves from the vine is originally planned by the Koto! (Fun fact) It is a string instrument and a lot of music uses it
Asian music? Series co-creator Michael Dante Dimartino wrote the lyrics, and the music was done by Jeremy Zuckerman. Which of those two guys was Asian?
@@TheRealSkeletor Mako.
No WAY is colm this cool! I use to look everywhere for covers of this song that I loved and I already know he’s going to deliver in ways no one else can! This is beyond amazing and has made my day 1000x better.
Annapantsu also has an awesome cover of this song :)
Noice
Mako would've loved to hear this. You honor his memory with your music.
Even the voice actor doesn’t take request to sing this song because it belongs to irony and his son
I literally got chills when I saw this!!! I am so excited! I’m going to need it to be released to the music streaming services soon! I’ll listen to it all the time!!!
Speaking for all ATLA lovers, Colm, thanks😌
rest in peace mako
wish you were here to listen and see this and the impact you had on so many
myself included
I’m calling in to work tomorrow to prepare.. if anyone needs me I’ll be sobbing at this masterpiece
That was a gem of an episode. Idk who wrote the story for that episode, but they were definitely going through some things. Even now I'm tearing up just remembering and feeling Iroh's pain. 😢

@@mruntitled1344 from what I heard Mako had an imput on this episode as a writer and the image if his son was a painting of Mako himself.
I really love how you weaved in the main theme of the series around 2:38, so witty! and overall such an amazing cover, beautiful. thank you!
I am so happy i get to see it at premiere cuz no college. Letz goooooooooooooo.
I can wait to get body slammed by emotional damage.
R.I.P. Mako 😢❤
You were a good friend and will always be missed
OK, how much of the emotion is from the show and how much is from the fact this is just plain a banger of a song?
Regardless,
Thank you. this is now my favorite cover.
Yes
I think that's what makes it so powerful. It's Iroh's loss and trying to be there for Zuko in one song that is very good on its own terms as well
Holy CRAP that was SO GOOD!!!! Overlaying all of the instruments and how you delivered the lines was just amazing. I got chills!
That was amazing. I love Avatar and Iroh has always been one of my favourite characters. I think I might have to go and re-watch the series again now.

CHILLS. Am currently guiding a friend through her first watch through, and I am probably a bad person for looking forward to how badly this song is going to shatter her soul.
No you're not, we all do it every time we convince someone to watch it. That and waiting for the Puppetmaster
Everyone gangsta til Iroh starts singing
Wow, I did not budget enough emotional energy for this day! Excellent rendition of this somber song 🍃🍂🍂🌱
I love seeing other Avatar fans create and show support for the series so long after it's completion. Your amazing voice and the story of Mako make this such an amazing piece. Excellent work 👍
I was doing pretty well till the drum kicked in at about 1:10 then I got all misty-eyed. Well done Colm, it was a fine homage to Mako :-)

More of a father than I never knew I had....This earl grey is for you.
YESSSS YEEEESSSSS, I CAN’T WAIT TO CRY FOR THIS BEAUTIFUL COVER OF UNCLE IROH’S MOST DEPRESSING SONG
you can be told about a tragedy that happens in a show, but something like this song, it makes you feel the pain the characters have to live with
Shamrocks on the vine, grew green and grand
Now none but stems remain, plucked by a tyrants hand
Little soldier boy, taken from home
Forced into a land, that's not his own.
Leaves from the vine, from branches grown
Drifting slowly down, resting on the loam
Little soldier boy, used to laugh and run
Brave soldier boy, he's learned to hold a gun
Ash in the snow, falling so slow
Like fragile broken hearts, with no place to go
Little soldier boy, from dignity was torn
So brave soldier boy, rose up one Easter morn'.
This is beautiful!
Ahh, this is absolutely delightful! The orchestration is like a warm hug. This is definitely going at the top of my list of favorites of your songs.
Now why did you have to go and make a heartbreaking song even more so? Beautifully done. Rest in peace uncle iro
A man dying of cancer weeping to himself as he sings, or quadruple vocals under a lute, flute and violin..? I don't know, but one makes me cry just a touch harder 😭
Either way, this was absolutely gorgeous, thank you Colm
This one is going to be hitting hard. I can't wait!
This song always tears me up not only cause the show is over but because the first iroh is gone. Thank you for the cry
Every day that goes past is a day closer to me loosing my Granddad. He's 91 now, it's a good age, but I don't think I'll ever be ready. He's the Iroh to my Zuko, and I'm sure when he goes I'm going to be heartbroken.
I'll be back here if I ever need a good cry. Bravo Colin.
This was absolutely beautiful. I cried when Uncle Iroh sang it and I Cried when you did, thank you.
Well at least I’m off tomorrow. Let me stock up on ice cream and tissues.
I was not ready for the emotional damage
I enjoyed every second of it. Avatar the Last Airbender is such a nostalgic show
Colm. These last 2 months you’ve been uploading have just been uplifting to my spirit. This is one of my all time favorite songs that also bring tears to my eyes. Thank you. Keep on, keeping on.
Be the Uncle Iroh that you needed in your life. Rest in peace, Mako. Your legacy will live on forever.
Amazing Colm. The violin definitely had centre stage, but the drums carried the show, providing a traditional military edge for our 'little soldier boy'. Thank you for the feels!
One of my favorite songs from childhood, being covered by one of my most respected artists. I can rest happy now 😊
Literal chills.
And tears...
Lots of tears...
Saw the title, knew it was gonna hurt, was not wrong. Beautifully done.
Such a emotional song. I did not think anyone could make me actually shiver from it except Uncle. And here we are bout to cry. Absolutely stunning.
You not only hit the mood of the day perfectly, but also made a wonderful version of one of the most beautiful songs, again, of one of my favorite series.🎵🍂
Thank you very much Cap'n. 🎵🍂
am I the only one who heard Irohs voice aswell as Colms? like... fucking tears to my eyes... well done. you did it justice. Iroh would be proud. so would Makoto... both would be proud.
I wouldn't have been able to sing it without tearing up, definitely a good one Mr. Colm!
Just beautiful! I love this cover so much...we will all miss Uncle Iroh and his wisdom and tea.
So Colm R McGuinness is an amazing singer & one of my TOP 3 all time favorite singers ATLA is also one of my TOP 3 favorite cartoons. THIS VIDEO JUSY BECAME MY 1st FAVORITE SONG
I have not once in my life experienced "chills" from music. Until today.
Goosebumps. Goosebumps and tears
I think I need to take the day off
Dear Colm, thank you so much for your music, your voice, your art ❤this is so beautiful, this is so sad... "Little soldier boy comes marching home, brave soldier boy comes marching home..." 😭 This really tears my heart
i cried tears of tea the first time with the anime, now i can cry gin and beer while listening to it.
Honestly such a powerful song and you do it so much justice. Thank you.
Rest in Peace Mako. Uncle to a generation.
Iroh always make me tear up, he wanted so badly for his son to be fine and when he failed he remembered the failure and tried to gently guide his nephew from the path of war and bitterness to one of maturity and calmness the Voice actor for Iroh was truly a good pick, God rest you Mako may the Lord in heaven grant you peace
YAY!! Great song!! This is going to be lovely!! Really excited!!
listening to this i cant help to remember the episode, and this instantly brings up emotions that only few stories are able to do. It was a very good choice to do a cover of this song, and its a really good one aswell. :)
This cover came out in the same couple days as my Nana dying. I must have listened to it fifteen or twenty times in a row, just sitting there in the sadness. I still come back to it when I'm thinking of her. Thank you for this music
Thank you Colm, for this emotional piece of Art.
It is awakening old Memories of the Avatar Series. ❤️
Ah such a sad and beautiful song. When i first heard it i never released it had a double sad meaning behind it.

Are you kidding me? THERE IS NO WAY I CAN LISTEN TO THIS. I'll bawl my eyes out just thinking about it. LOL
Yep, I’m over here ugly crying. 😭 🥰
why are you making me cry like this colm?
i love this so much thanks man :)
cried in therapy came home cried to this
Thank you algorithm for suggesting this, what a beautiful cover.
This song means so much more when you know the story behind it
In the memory of noble sons who gave their lives in the battlefield and comfort to the fathers who grieves. Little soldier boy comes marching home, brave soldier boy comes marching home.....
This man is a 2000 legend, i hope my kids will hear his art someday
I know this song is from the perspective of a parent to their child. But this version, that Colm preformed so wonderfully, sounds to me like a group of soldiers marching together singing the song their parents sang when they left home.
It’s only after you’ve lost someone that you truly come to realize how much you loved them.
One of, if not THE the hardest hitting episodes of TLA, and Colm does it justice in spades. Amazing, as always.
Ah fantastic, I knew I wanted to cry for some reason. Thank you.
(This was beautiful beyond compare)
It settled Colm will be the official singer at my funeral, The only Bard who reached my soul🙌🙌🙌
To this day I cannot hear this song without getting a little bit misty eyed.
Amazing! I love that you are revisiting this with your added vocals. I loved your instrumental version as well, so thanks for doing both! Keep on being awesome and stay handsome!
Wow! Released on my birthday, a favorite moment from my favorite show. About a birthday no less
oh my looorrrdddd, I am covered in goosebumps that was the most amazing thing ever thank you for literally blessing my day with this, you're sooooo talented :)
p.s. my brother says now he's had a "best of luck" from you then he's now able to pass his 3rd year of uni lol
OK I'm crying at work now.
Thanks Colm!
