My best friend sang this at my fathers funeral, i'll never forget it. it'll always be close to my heart. Christy Means so much to people on a deeper level, hes truly a national treasure. God bless him
excellent !!!!!!!!! this illustrates that a singer doesn't have to be roaring and screaming to be heard! this goes straight to the heart!!! thanks a million for posting!
Johnny you are now about to start another voyage and you will get there with love and peace in your heart. Smooth waves on this journey. You will be so missed in this world 🌎 ❤❤
Johnny Duhan is one of our greatest composers . Check out his other compositions...beautiful songs and doesn't get half enough credit for composing such beautiful material.
Glad you liked it. If you listen to the author's (Johnny Duhan) version which is up on UA-cam, at the end of that video you will hear Johnny express his gratitude to Christy for having popularized the song. A great lyric with a beautiful melody. If you want to learn more about the writing of that song,and his other well known songs, I recommend you buy Johnny's new book for all your friends as Christmas present, called TO THE LIGHT. Brilliant read!!
hi John, Was a bit dissapointed with the exception of el savador there was very little written about johnny album "current affairs" from the eighties in his new book "to the light" This was a great album and I thought a great success for him.
funny how quickly some people are willing to label something 'sentimental' because its expressed in simple, honest terms and not couched in clever rhyming and elaborate wordplay or worse, needs 'a twist'. Johnny wrote a simple song everyone could understand and relate to, and this seems to have made some people uncomfortable, I feel sorry for them. I personally prefer Johnnys own version but this is a fine performance from them both.

What programme was this? Is it the same with the version of A Pair of Brown Eyes with Shane? If anybody has a link to it I’d be greatly appreciative
@tamzintwaite1 Go right ahead, Alison. I'm honoured. JD

Gavin Paisley totally agree with above
Thanks Gavin. Appreciate your understanding of the song.
thanks Johnny :)
Who is the third guitarist who is doing some lovely stuff?
Declan sinnet
One of Ireland's great musicians, Declan Sinnott .
Johnny Duhan's version so much better! More sincere!
