When I first set out on this UA-cam journey, I knew nothing about mixing and mastering tracks and many of my original videos were left wanting in the audio quality department. Over the last few months, I have remastered a number of them, and I will be reposting one of them every Tuesday for the next two months. I will also be uploading new content every Thursday as well!
"The Rising of the Moon" is an Irish ballad recounting a battle between the United Irishmen, led by Theobald Wolfe Tone and the British Army during the Irish Rebellion of 1798. It was first published in 1866 by John Keegan Casey, and since then it has been covered by many of the greats including The Dubliners, The High Kings, The Clancy Brothers, Tommy Makem, and many more.
Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
"Ah come tell me Sean O'Farrell, tell me why you hurry so"
"Hush, mbuachaill, hush and listen," and his cheeks were all aglow
"I bear orders from the captain, get you ready quick and soon
For the pikes must be together at the rising of the moon"
[Chorus]
At the rising of the moon, at the rising of the moon
For the pikes must be together at the rising of the moon
[Verse 2]
"Ah come tell me Sean O'Farrell, where the gathering is to be"
"At the old spot by the river; quite well known to you and me"
"One more word for signal token; whistle out the marching tune
With your pike upon your shoulder at the rising of the moon"
[Chorus]
At the rising of the moon, at the rising of the moon
With your pike upon your shoulder at the rising of the moon
[Verse 3]
Out from many a mud wall cabin; eyes were watching through the night
Many a manly heart was beating for the blessed warning light
Murmurs rang along the valleys to the banshee's lonely croon
And a thousand pikes were flashing by the rising of the moon
[Chorus]
By the rising of the moon, by the rising of the moon
And a thousand pikes were flashing by the rising of the moon
[Verse 4]
All along that singing river that black mass of men was seen
High above their shining weapons flew their own beloved green
Death to every foe and traitor! Whistle out the marching tune
And hurrah, me boys, for freedom, at the rising of the moon
[Chorus]
At the rising of the moon, At the rising of the moon
And hurrah, me boys, for freedom, At the rising of the moon
These are tunes my Grandfather may have gotten down with, and that is a very sincere compliment.
Thank you!
That's a great Irish song, thanks for singing it and remembering the heroes of 1798. Cheers from Russia❤
I’m incredibly proud of your growth, and your remasters. You are a truly beautiful talent and I admire that you aren’t beyond feedback and improvement. I love that you want to be the best version of yourself and I love you and your work at every step of that journey. You have such a gift, and a gift for transformation. You’re my light in the dark and my hope in a hopeless world. Thank you for trusting me to grow with me. Your favorite fan is with you all the way💚💚💚 and I hope that means you’re trying for another album soon!
You have this blend of professional skill and folk soul that is hard to match. Your voice would fit just as well on a concert stage as it would a few barstools down, and that'd a compliment. Thanks for making the music from a very important and often glossed over conflict available to newer generations.
Thank you my friend
Why do you have such a nice and pretty voice, it’s so soft and makes the whole song
I consider you to be the best singer of Irish rebellion songs. Which calls for " my little armalite" when you can.
As someone whose family fought at Vinegar Hill you do this song a great service !
I think I speak for many people on here when I request at some point to hear My Little Armilite. With that being said, I'm really enjoying your work. Makes my days a lot better listening to it on my way to work.
Yes please!!!
One of my favorite songs sang by Ronnie Drew and The Dubliners❗️💚 Greetings from Slovenia❗️🍀✌🏻
Absolutly splendid Seth, ... I've no words to describe the immense beauty of your songs! 😁😁👍👍
Thank you!
@@sethstatonwatkins You are most welcome!
Thank you so much for opening up to me, Seth💚💚💚 through your very subtle ways in your performances, through your thoughts and feelings on the themes, through being willing to let yourself be vulnerable with me by reading and liking my comments all the way… I’m more than grateful to be seen as a safe place for you (and you’re right; I am)💚💚💚 I like what I see and I’m so very glad you’re here. I would be a lot more of an anxious mess and a whole lot sadder without your time and talent💚💚💚 and care(:
I'm an American of Irish descent, so this song always causes a bit of a choke for me. Well done!
An chulais Óró Sé Do Bheatha 'Bhaile nó aon amhrán eile as Gaelainn?
@@internetual7350 Sorry, no Gaelic for me, but I think it means something like "pay attention, this is your heritage/homeland".
I agree with that sentiment.
@@perihelion7798 Ba chóir duit níos mó amhráin a éisteacht as Gaelainn. Is í do theanga dúchais má tá sinsear Éireannaigh agat! Tá "Mo Ghile Méar" an-mhaith ar fad go háirithe an físeán le Muireann Nic Amhlaoibh as chontae Ciarraí ag canadh. You should listen to more songs in Irish Gaelic. She is your native language if you have Irish ancestors! "Mo Ghile Méar" is very good indeed especially the video with Muireann Nic Amhlaoibh from county Kerry singing.
@@internetual7350 Yes. The Rising of he Moon, and the Foggy Dew are my favorites.
When I visited Ireland, I would watch the Gaelic channel on TV, just because I like the way the language sounded, without understand a single word.
@@perihelion7798 ua-cam.com/video/SYtyrpsTfeg/v-deo.html
Is í seo leagan den "Foggy Dew" as Gaelainn! (This is a version of the "Foggy Dew" in Irish!)
Howdy from Corpus Christi Texas. Outstanding video 👍 👍
you help people love there heritage
I got a cat just before the first version was posted, I named her Moon because of it. I have that version as my morning alarm, she comes running when she hears her song playing
God, I would pay ANY amount of money for Seth to be my alarm every morning… (:
"Ah, come tell me Sean O'Farrell, tell me why you hurry so!"
"Hush-a bhuchaill, hush and listen!" and his cheeks were all aglow
"I bear orders from the captain, get you ready quick and soon
For the pikes must be together by the rising of the moon!"
At the rising of the moon, at the rising of the moon
With your pike upon your shoulder by the rising of the moon
"Ah, come tell me Sean O'Farrell where the gatherin' is to be!"
"At the old spot by the river, quite well-known to you and me!
One more word for signal token, whistle out the marching tune
With your pike upon your shoulder by the rising of the moon!"
At the rising of the moon, at the rising of the moon
With your pike upon your shoulder at the rising of the moon
Out from many a mud wall cabin eyes were watching through the night
Many a manly heart was beating for the blessed morning's light
Murmurs rang along the valley to the banshee's lonely croon
And a thousand pikes were flashing by the rising of the moon
By the rising of the moon, by the rising of the moon
And a thousand pikes were flashing by the rising of the moon
All along that singing river, that black mass of men was seen
High above their shining weapons flew their own beloved green
"Death to every foe and traitor! Whistle out the marching tune!
And hurrah, my boys, for freedom!" at the rising of the moon
At the rising of the moon, at the rising of the moon
"And hurrah, my boys, for freedom!" at the rising of the moon
UNSUNG VERSE
Well, they fought for poor old Ireland, and full bitter was their fate
Oh, what glorious pride and sorrow fills the name of '98
Yet, thank God, e'en still are beating hearts in manhood's burning noon
Who would follow in their footsteps at the rising of the moon!
At the rising of the moon, at the rising of the moon
Who would follow in their footsteps at the rising of the moon!
This is the best song ever wish this song was on Spotify Seth is the best Irish folk artist ever
The Dubliners version is better and is on Spotify
I just started putting together a playlist of my favorite covers from you, so it's good to see you remastering these. Some of my favorites are your first few uploads, so I can't wait to see the new versions.
Absolutely love your work Seth. Have you ever thought of doing Easter Lily?
@@__mindflayer__ that would be lit!
You're voice is very comforting
I woke up today with this song in my head. I struggled to chose between this and Clancy Brother's on Ed Sullivan.
Just came across this today. This is my top favorite song and I have always liked the Clancy brothers and the dubliners version of this song. This may be the best I have ever herd. I think Seth station Watkins has a real chance to become one of the best Irish bands ever
Seth & brother performers!! A gifted performance of that very auld loved classic..lovely variation of modern, fresh & classic reflection & obvious respect..thank you kindly young guys..wow... auld guy! John. Tipperary.
Danke!
thank you!
An hurrah!
The minstrel boy and the wind that shakes the barley please ;)
Rising of the moon was one of my favorites! but I couldn't allow myself to watch it while looking at your new stuff and the quality that is. great job!
Lots more remasters coming!
@@sethstatonwatkins love it! Can't wait!
😣His previous versions weren’t low quality… they were great(: now they’re just so much better. But he didn’t start off bad… not at all. Remember that too Seth if you’re being hard on you about the previous ones. It’s amazing how much you have grown, but you were never, never bad or low quality💚💚💚
@@menyou1443 oh of course! It wasn't low quality at all, but it pales in comparison to this
@@dotto4807 I understand what you’re saying now-and I agree! I did also find myself gravitating towards these full of energy remasters!
I just don’t ever want Seth to feel like he did a bad job, even then, especially with all the heart and time he pours into it💚💚💚 to people like me (in case Seth is one of them), your work is your heart… and your soul, and your self… so how people feel about your work feels like an extension of how they feel about you… if someone, for example, were to tell me that they didn’t like my (Irish hisfic) book, that I spend hours and hours on, and pour myself into, I would feel like they were rejecting me, my heart, and everything I poured into the book, even tho they don’t know about it or that they’ve beheld it… so I just want to make sure he knows that is loved. And this is too, especially! I try to make sure that my quiet friend is taken care of, too(:
Once again bud your absolutely amazing! Keep it up 👍
Magnifique chanson❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Wearing of the green

Thank you for putting it on Tik Tok!
Man you're cute and I love your voice!!! When is the concert??? ❤❤
Amazing stuff Seth! I listen to your music at work everyday, it makes things go that much faster and it’s always something to look forward to.
I had a suggestion…there’s a tune that was written in the 1600s called “The Digger’s Song”. It was sung by a radical group of early anti-feudalists, but they went way more radical than a lot of others did. It has some weirdly modern-sounding parts to it, like this verse -
“Your houses they pull down stand up now, stand up now
Your houses they pull down, stand up now
Your houses they pull down, to fright your men in town
But the gentry must come down and the poor shall wear the crown
Stand up now, Diggers all”
Wild lyrics, really interesting group.
Anyway, thanks for doing what you do!
Glad to hear!
That's a modern song based on their story. Still a classic.
@@JBurdoo Based on the info I can find it’s authentic! It was first published in the late 1800s by a group called the Camden Society, who focused on publishing historical documents and manuscripts for the public.
There is a pretty catchy modern ballad that speaks about the events as well called “The World Turned Upside Down”, written by Leon Rosselson in the 50s or 60s I believe. Maybe you’re thinking of that one?
@@ecta9604 Ah, you meant this one: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diggers%27_Song. Yes, I was thinking of The World Turned Upside Down.
Day 2 of asking for "hangin on the old barbed wire"
I’ll add it to the list!
вау
This song has the same pattern as the orange and the green by the Irish rovers

Maybe his cheeks wouldn’t be all a glow and out of breath and stuff if maybe he didn’t deliver the message in song ;-)
