Fell in love with this song , when my Irish dad brought this home on video of Irish songs back in the early 80s. My dad died young @ 54. (1991) A year later I was marrying a Cork girl, in Cork. On my stag night (Cork) we wandered into a pub & they played , sweet sixteen.. Brilliant.
I’m listening to this beautiful song in Australia, I just love Ireland and their music also The Fureys they are brilliant. I am 76% Irish in my DNA hope to go there when all this craziness in the world ends 🍀

@@SuperCharlesmc thank you so much. Just one month ago I lost my dear husband suddenly of 33 years. So this song means more to me than ever. I’ve been having a music day today and playing a lot of beautiful Irish ballads which I love so much. Bless from Australia 😘🇦🇺
My husband Peter and I used to go and see the Fureys and Davey Arthur when ever they came to Warwick Arts Center I have lost my Peter but these songs bring it back to me how much we loved there songs and how much I loved my Peter.
We Dr & Mrs. Gobin & Dassie Persaud PhD played this song for several decades when at bedtime and this evening’s she lays in the emergency of North York hospital with me at her side having being Married for 73 years Please you al pray for us as I continue to play this song at her bedside in hospital
ive just seen this pal . i see it was a year ago your wee wife was in trouble . a hope things went well for yous and i will pray for yous .JESUS IS LORD .
Listening in 2024. I’ve loved this song since I was a kid. I’m 50 now. I think of two nansand grandads and this song they and my beautiful loving mum loved so much. It reminds me of love and family.xxx
I am now 69.... but when I was a youth , in the Black County , where many "paddies" working on the roads lived ... where all my pals wer 2nd generation Irish ... from the heavy-working navvies on the roads --- were my pals -- this , and many more such songs -- including "rebel" songs ( but I didnt differentiate ... they were just Irish songs to me )... were part of my growing up.... I look back on them now with great sentimentality and love..... superb songs with meanings ... unlike the shite that the younger generations listen to now
I'm 56 now and main man for "Operation Shamrock ☘ 20,21,22,23,24 ". We have this in the bag. Get in the mood. Play the right frequency. Give them hell. Play all the stuff we love. ❤💚🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮💯🇮🇪🇮🇪

My Granddaughter, spent a semester in London. She was able to visit many places in Europe. She said Ireland was her absolute favorite place. She must have her Irish ancestry, in her blood. I adore this beautiful music.
you cant get more beautiful music than the fureys and my taste in music is metallica and arctic monkeys, the jam etc, but none of them make me cry, absolutly stunning, and i cant believe anyone would give a thumbs down, fuckers must never clean the was outta their ears, green fields never fails to make me bawl, makes me proud to be a dubliner,
Nothing better than to hold the love of your life in your arms and tell them how much you care about them and how much you love them if you have the chance to do this then dont pass it bye, to love someone or to be loved bye someone is the greatest gift you can experience you just cant put a price on it, love is the greatest gift dont waste it its precious
It is Woodie. Me grandad use to play the banjo, back in the day and he was brilliant at it. Every so often a few of his mates would get together and play all this great music and it was a thrill to listen to them. I'm being a wee bit bias here, but his banjo playing seem to stand out the most.
This song reminds me of my mum who passed away on the 15/08/2018 unexpectedly on my birthday hers would of been two days later this was one of her favourite tracks RIP mum xx
Finbar sang this last night. He introduced it saying now for I will love you. A woman (not me, sadly) shouted out - I DO love you! Finbar said, maybe I won’t go home to Dublin tonight! I of course cried by head off. Thank god the theatre was dark.
Wtf have I been doing with my life that I didn’t know of the genius of Finbar Furey til recently? I hate lists of best songs, although I do do them on occasion. But, stone cold sober this may be the best song I’ve ever heard. And I’ve heard a few. I want a fuckin banjo too.
Whenever I hear this song I am reminded of the wasted years since I broke off my engagement to a girl I had met when she was sixteen and I twenty. It took me a time to realise that I had not stopped loving her but had not been mature enough for marriage. I am now in my eighties but still bitterly regret the hurt I caused her and my stupidity at the happiness I threw away.
Peter Murphy . Regrets can be hard to live with , but we must . Maybe you were meant to take a different path through life. Where we would like to have gone ,may not have been the way for us to learn the lessons we needed to learn . Sometimes we take pathways for the benefit of others . If you learn and grow from events good and bad then you become a better person ,which makes the world a better place.
I saw Tom Paxton in concert in Oklahoma City in March 2020, and after the concert he told me that The Fureys, particularly Finbar, recorded his favorite version of this wonderful song!
Listening in Crete, May 2034. I had a big collection of Fureys tapes that I lost when I moved from the Uk. Introduced to them by great Irish friends and saw then in Ireland but just once. Now must re-build my collection bit by bit. Greatest band ever - better than the Dubs
This is absolutely beautiful and sung with such emotion a pure pleasure to listen to the words get me every time I listen to it sending love and hope always
I loved the furey songs and music for many years.Finbar furey came with is son to play at the Regent theatre in Dunedin New Zealand about 15 yrs ago.Their singing and musicianship are outstanding sang and played with such passion and feeling.
The best love song I've ever heard, since I was little. Always reminds me of the love between my mum and dad. It made me cry when I was little and it still makes me cry now. It's so beautiful and that banjo, say no more! Much love always X
Just simply beautiful !! One of my all time favourite bands and have been for quite a number of years, great musicians who have sung some of the most moving songs i have ever heard and this one is no exception.
Irish love and charm dressed up in a way that we will all understand...music....it would be a miracle if anyone could do better. I have never in my 70+ years heard an instrument played with such heart rending and feeling... Thanks so much for the upload
+George Styer To say that this is a beautiful song is an understatement. That being said and in view of your comment, may I urge you to listen to *Se Fath Mo Bhuartha* by the Dubliners. Now I admit to some bias in that even though I was born in London (and I love London with a passion), I was brought up on the Dubliners by my Dad and for me the best album the Dubliners ever produced was Revolution in 1970; Se Fath Mo Bhuartha being one of the tracks. Se Fath Mo Bhuartha is performed as a poem in two parts: John Sheehan speaking the verses in Irish and the inimitable Ronnie Drew repeating the verses in English. That being said, the great Barney McKenna plays a most magnificent melody on the banjo to accompany the poem. Once again, I urge you to listen to it. As always, UA-cam provide a sound substitute for when you don't have the original recordings. I hope you enjoy the melancholic beauty that this wonderful poem provides. All the best!
George Styer yes George. instrumentally and vocally this band are the masters. this English man can see the great passion of Ireland through these brothers. I love them too.
I am not English but Manx closer to Ireland than anywhere else....GGGGgrandfather Born in Ireland and "owned" the town of Killen 1730 so I am told, A blacksmith, I love my Irish roots and one day will return to and listen to the real Irish music....
George Styer as a born Dutchman i do Love this music very, very much.. it has given me over the past nearly forty years such great comfort in my live. I atarted to know the Dubliners in the beginning of ‘81. And Some years later i met the very Big variaty of this Very Lovely Folk!! It has given me so much Comfort in live!! Many thanks Ireland and also Scotland with the Big late Andy M. Stewart with His Lovely Voice!!! Thanks Andy....... R.I.P.
Saw them in Wolverhampton about 30 years ago. They actually sing better when they have been in the bar for a while lol. Wonderful absolutely wonderful evening and the best concert Ive been to. They really were perfection. Fin you are awesome.
They are great group from Ireland we in Newfoundland love them because we are Irish. We have radio show on Saturday from 7 to 1 o’clock and we hear them all time it’s all Irish music station is vocm 590
the fureys will make you laugh and they WILL make you cry and you will be overcome by both these emotions.cant wait to see them again.I am aPROUD WELSHMAN ,but when i listen to the FUREYS i.m a Welsh IRISHMAN. god bless them.
Have always loved their music ...heard them first at an intimate concert in Dingle Town in County Kerry in autumn of 1980 ...and how wonderful that they are still performing. I'd love to see them again.
i didn't understand the words ornally when i 1st heard it played at my mum's funeral, but i do now the grieving is over and i've listened to it over and over again, still breaks my heart when i hear it though, beautiful song with a very deep meaning xxx
Chloe Lovell. sorry for your loss chloe. my mum passed away just after my twins were born in same hospital so it was hard known if you should be happy or sad. Lee

One of Tom Paxton's most beautiful songs. Perfect for an Irish love song too!
He makes we want to dance and cry all at the same time. And I never want to dance or cry.
The banjo is a thrill in itself, outstanding !
The accordian nice blend into song

Woodie Thompson, agreed check out Pecker Dunne on banjo, another Irish traveller , like the Furey brothers, God bless the travelling people.
@@stephenlisson1994 what type of banjo is uses here

Dreading the day but what can you do easy come easy go same old ship different paddler :))
I saw The Furey Brothers in concert ,in Luton,earlier this week. They were superb and sang this lovely song along with many other great songs.
Booked tickets to see them in March in Minehead, Somerset.
It translated the feeling of loneliness into satisfaction, what a touching and healing song, the banjo has transcended extremely, oh gosh!
Beautiful, Beautiful, Beautiful
What more could you wish for than this music played and sang by the Fureys and David Arthur......BRILLIANT
Davey not David
I saw the Fureys at Mayne Hall in Brisbane 30 years ago. Still the best live concert I have ever attended. A fantastic inspirational group.
You might remember the support group, Blackthorne, which I sang in...
Hugh McKay I was in the band Blackthorne who were the support on that night
guess nobody remembers you@@kenoflaherty8769
Love the reactions by the Irish audience. A classic gem, takes me back to an unforgettable visit to Ireland in 2002.

To say that this is a beautiful song is an understatement. That being said and in view of your comment, may I urge you to listen to *Se Fath Mo Bhuartha* by the Dubliners. Now I admit to some bias in that even though I was born in London (and I love London with a passion), I was brought up on the Dubliners by my Dad and for me the best album the Dubliners ever produced was Revolution in 1970; Se Fath Mo Bhuartha being one of the tracks.
Se Fath Mo Bhuartha is performed as a poem in two parts: John Sheehan speaking the verses in Irish and the inimitable Ronnie Drew repeating the verses in English. That being said, the great Barney McKenna plays a most magnificent melody on the banjo to accompany the poem.
