I love you very much, I am the maytans, you make ma life much more enjoyable, I ve been listening alot lately, lost my mama, father 8n law, you get me there, love you like a dad
Just been watching and listening to Viva la Quinta Brigada , and it has me crying, such a powerful song. My uncle Norman was killed in the International Brigade's very last action on the Ebro in September 1938 , along with 22 other comrades . They had already been ordered to leave Spain, but fought a last action before leaving. I never Knew my uncle as I was born 15 years later .
Hello Sir, you sang this for my husband and I at the beginning of lockdown, I play it every week, wish I was in Ireland, much love and Happy Christmas, Jackie Maytan
Happy Birthday lovely Tinschi! Thank you, Christy, for putting our favourite songs Black is the Colour and Viva la quinta Brigada together. Take care and God bless!
I know how to play a campfire song with my guitar and me lungs. But then comes Mr. Moore and makes me cry again. What a treasure you guys up there have.
Perfect timing Christy 🥺 I didn't have a good day, but you have changed that for me. 😊 Thank you for another lovely session, Mate. Take care to you and your family 💚💛
Christy, I remember spending a wonderful evening with my father, my brother, and you in Vicker St many years ago. Keep it lit and thanks for all the good times.
I moved back to Spain in July 2020. Things may get dark again. I hope not. My friend Paqui sang in the choir the day they finally gave a decent burial to the Paterna republicans murdered by fascists and buried in a corner of the Paterna cemetary. God bless you Christy. You're a candle in the dark.
Christy, your singing like a good wine improves with age! My favourite song written by your friend Andy Irvine “West Coast of Clare” first time I heard it thought it was about a love lost & about a woman, but, now think the loss was Friendships & Grand MUSIC Times had in the West of Ireland! Play It Again Planxty! 👍🌈☘️🙏👏😊Memories from Grandfathers Visit during summer holidays, Music is the Love in Life sing on!🥰
I was in school after dat, in St Conleth’s, I was never taught about him, but yet aswell, I wasn't taught about you till 5th class, and when ye came in and sang a couple of songs that cemented in my mind trad music.
A fantastic evening to night with you and Andy we just love these sessions . Were Liverpool supports so we would love it for you and Andy could sing. You'll never walk alone in your way . Would make my evening thank you love you if you could do that .♥️♥️💚💚🙏🇮🇪🌈🌝
I just love and know the Irish voice and spirit you kindly share. My grandfather entered the US on the 4th of July in 1926. It didn’t seem so long ago when I was a child, born in 1971, but much of my father’s brothers joy for music has passed with them. Thankfully, I have some hardy Irish friends who also enjoy your song and voice. His Cork accent scared the hell out of a young Bostonian, but his kindness and pure wanderlust for the world inspired me greatly. Salud, amor, y dinero y tiempo para disfrutarlo. My favorito Spanish brindis (look it up).
Fantastic! Really enjoying these shows all the way from Manchester England. I was wondering if you could sing North and South of the River it’s the first song that made me pick up the guitar my brother had bought me a year earlier. I play this song often and would like to know how it came about as I believe you wrote it with the Bono and the Edge. Thanks Christy for all your music the way you interpret music is truly inspirational.
Your music and story telling is and always been to lovely to listen too Christy 🇮🇪☘️❤️...really enjoying this videos,thank you..hope you and the family are well 🙏
Thank you Christy and Andy. Great sessions, just so brilliantly intimate and insightful. Loving the tunes and the stories. You have to release the sessions as a CD and DVD when all this is over - The Lockdown Sessions!!! Keeping us all sane over here in Bishops Stortford. Love to all, Stay Safe.
I heard you sing one verse of my favourite song on a documentary about the pecker Dunne, I would love to hear you have a crack at that live on UA-cam God bless Forgot to say the name of the song, lol Sullivan's John
Christy and Andy I thank you for your work on these videos. They're such an intimacy and closeness in their make up its almost like an oul hokey in your aunt's better class of turn tho. I've shared a lot of my life with u from a distance Christy fom the early days I the Maggot Bin to the Sportsmans to Lisdoon n later days to Harry Crosby's little venues. It's been a hell of a ride. I'm wondering after all that butterin up will you play an aul song for me that's always been a stand out from the Maggot Bin and still has a resonance today.Go Move Shift. Thank you again for your time n dedication Regards to you both Kieran. Keep Coming Back

For me the Greatest Moment in Football History was in Spain, when the Irish Fans sang the Fields of Athenry!!!🇩🇪🇮🇪
You're on about Poland in Euro 2012. Our greatest moment is beating England in your country in 1988, 1-0.
Christy, would love to hear Sonny's Dream. I'm a homesick Newfoundlander in Cork. RIP Ron Hynes.

Christy, thank you. Could you elaborate on the Joxer story and give me, as a non-Irish, a little more why he is in a few of the songs?
Frank Conroy
Just love it lads can't wait for YNWA . Little Musgrave would be amazing.
ANOTHER GREAT EPISODE. Good to hear Viva la Quinte Brigada. Good to remember Frank Conroy. I love all your songs but especially all the ones that mention people & places
Thanks again for a wonderful session and being your guest at your place. Let's have some thoughts about Frank Conroy.
Another brilliant performance from you and Andy - thank you! Is there any chance you'd sing 'Butterfly' by the Hanson family during one of these sessions? It was on your album 'Burning Times'. I adore that entire album - a real treasure! Thanks gents.
😊
Thanks Christy and Andy. Any chance of 'Sacco and Vanzetti' for my soulmate Michela? All the best from Sicily.
