Karan is so awesome!! It should also say Michael McGoldrick on flute, he is awesome as well. :)
This comment I write in 2022. Ewan was a master song writer and this I consider to be one of his greatest.If we implant the words into what we globally have all experienced then this song becomes prophetic. Karan sings it with a superb voice but with an amazing recognition of the words and turns it into a song of defiance. "Did you shuffle off the pavement just to let your betters pass?" Well did you? Remember this is written in 2022. The truth is out there. Wake up, hello, wake up.
"Did you stand there in the traces and let them feed you lies?" Ewan saw things very clearly.
@@behall808 Yes he did and maybe his words will wake others.
Learned to love Ewan MacColl through the fantastic Clancy Brothers, the most fantastic ambassadors for Ireland you could ever wish, Shoals of Herring, The Band played Waltzing Mathilda, have warbled these tunes all my life!
Best cover i’ve seen of that song.
3 years passed. Irish people there are over milions! I'm from far country and I'm here. But only 8688 listeners. And only 113 likes. I don't understand! This is very valuable music. Beautiful song. Awesome singer. The heart of Irland. I don't understand. Every my friends in Poland listened to it. Maybe this song is for only Polish people? The world is strange. I presented this in my polish-ukrainian-belarusan group on facebook.
Absolute Amazing!!!
I like it, but MacColl's version gives more power to the message.
Adoro suas músicas Karan. Quero assistir a um show seu na Irlanda.
Lovely song✌️❤️
Love this. Karan is amazing!
Cheers from Poland. I like this song since the moment I heard it. :) I like old Irish music and all songs sung by Karan Casey of course. I have never been in Irland because I don't like traveling :) Perhaps Poland is the best place on the world. I invite to Poland. :)
