Thank you to the Pogues and lyricists Jem Finer and Shane Macgowan and to Kirsty MacColl (RIP). An uplifting Christmas song for the underdog in all of us. Relationships ruined by personal failings can be rekindled in time with an unknown future. A microcosm of Pogues Mahone and Shane Macgowan.
ABSOLUTLY AGREED. From Portugal, my sincerely condolences to MacGowan family and Pogues, thank you Shane for the most beautiful Christmas song ever, tkank you.
From Down Under it's hot here but that brings something beautiful and special on Christmas day. Great song beautifully written. Grandma Catherine would love it as I do. Thank you.
No man, it´s Christmas, that´s what people were celebrating. It´s incredibly awesome to be born in christmas season, if it was just solstice nobody would celebrating anything, apart form some new age hippie morons.@@heidithomas5455
Brilliant. Even though the woke brigade [inc the BBC] are trying to get the lyrics changed I hope they fail miserably. Very well done to all who participated in this. Kudos.
@@dleewigh1237 It's two separate thoughts. The controversial line is 'cheap lousy faggot', which a lot of covers get rid of, then he corrected another line (even though I hear 18-to-1).
+82Gallagher I am living in Germany and I doubt that a flashmob on a Christkindlmarkt would end up in a brawl. Most people in Germany don´t know this song, though. But I bet if you gather some people for singing a popular Christmas carol on a German Christkindlmarkt, then people will cheer and sing along.
+Paul M Stiffy Certainly not fake. Apple Juice at the 2010 Totnes Christmas Markets could indeed be bought for £1.50. There are a few people left on the planet who aren't complete arseholes.
My brother lives in Totnes we haven't spoken for at least 5yrs or more he suddenly stopped corresponding why I don't know but anyway I love Totnes and seeing this just brought back so many memories
Use this video to give him a call and see what possibly went wrong. If nothing comes of it at the least it's worth a try and may put your mind to rest. Good luck.
@@Nighthawk-m9u I was wondering at this time of year what the outcome was. If you see this Phillip, I hope you were successful in getting some satisfaction. Merry Christmas.
English people be like, “Aww, that’s so cute, I sooo lurvvve this Irish Christmas song”…. Irish people be like, “What the holy feck have that lot over the water done to Shane’s song? Pretentious c**ts…” Just awful, sorry
The correct words are - - "got on a lucky one, came in eighteen to one" - not came in at ten to one like this lot are singing- if you're gonna sing someone else's song - at least the words right!
See...There is still beauty in the world. Thanks Shane!
Really great song.
I'm sure it will become a standard and everyone will sing it every year.

The lyrics of this song are all about alcoholism and drug addiction but the tune is absolutely captivating
Wow, you managed to make an Irish classic super English...in a good way! Well done you (all).
Shane was English born in Kent. But had Irish family.
@@pooch12341 no son born in ireland lad and then whent over there england good lad irish
@@davidwalters4906 MacGowan was born on Christmas day 1957 in Pembury Kent. father from Dublin and his mother from Tipperary.
Nasty Irish comments??😮
Congrats for not steering away from the controversial lyric, but it's 'Came in 18 to 1.' So, close. great job though.
What? How is that controversial \
@@dleewigh1237 It's two separate thoughts. The controversial line is 'cheap lousy faggot', which a lot of covers get rid of, then he corrected another line (even though I hear 18-to-1).
Gongratulations, this is wonderful!
Beautiful version. Thanks for posting.
lovely : )
i bet most of em were in nativity plays with tea towels on their heads as kids...you can see them remembering ; )
What a great moment-really captured the feel of Christmas.
Fabulous.

Wow I wish I had been there.....excellent as always!

SUPER ! And I like the women telling the men off ! Well done !
This is my favorite cover of it.
Does anyone have the music to this? Looking to do it with a choir in a week’s time. Please let me know if you do!
helenyeomans.co.uk/contact-helen/
brilliant song . we do a version with our concert band but we miss the lyrics which are also special
Great stuff, must have that arrangement.
It's such a good song it even works without the instruments
Glorious!
Bravo 👏❤ Merry Christmas
"those" people say Happy Christmas... to which you can tell what part of the world one is from. Christmas is wonderful.
Merry Christmas from Newport News, Virginia. Thanks for the fine performance and posting this.
Bloody Brilliant!
Wonderful!
Great job! Well done!

It’s 18/1 not 10/1!!!
I was there :)
lovely English peeps
Great choir.
great vid, loved it
🎉😁👍🏼💪🏽
What's not to like? Cool as a winters frost.
the woman with the white hat and red scarf :-) :-)
Got on a lucky one, came in 18/1, NOT 10/1!
Terrific!
Amazing! In Germany this is ptobably impossible 😢

Gabal W. I am German and don't know anyone who doesn't know this song. Everyone loves it. At a Christmas market here the played it over the speakers.
Came in at 10 to 1 ? Nob heads
Haha I was looking for this reply as soon as I heard it
Great stuff
The best
You could tell it was a fake by the 'hot and spicy apple juice' at £1.50. Xmas market £1.50 for apple juice more like £4.50 robbin bastards
+Paul M Stiffy Certainly not fake. Apple Juice at the 2010 Totnes Christmas Markets could indeed be bought for £1.50. There are a few people left on the planet who aren't complete arseholes.

My brother lives in Totnes we haven't spoken for at least 5yrs or more he suddenly stopped corresponding why I don't know but anyway I love Totnes and seeing this just brought back so many memories

To James Lankan thank you
To James Langon thank you
Maybe he's dead
I do hope not.....maybe he's wanting you to reach out....to know he's still loved.
Maybe it's his missess.!
@@Nighthawk-m9u I was wondering at this time of year what the outcome was. If you see this Phillip, I hope you were successful in getting some satisfaction. Merry Christmas.
Great
should get the words correct when you do a cover lol
English people be like, “Aww, that’s so cute, I sooo lurvvve this Irish Christmas song”…. Irish people be like, “What the holy feck have that lot over the water done to Shane’s song? Pretentious c**ts…” Just awful, sorry
Didn’t really need the ladies in the beginning as it almost ruined the boys singing but all is well that ends well
Great..people coming together to be happy...nasty comments from some with own
😎🏵️🏵️
agendas..sad..😎🏵️
Uhhh god those girls ruined it with those “uhhh ahhhss”
The woman singing made it too annoying to finish watching...yuck
The correct words are - - "got on a lucky one, came in eighteen to one" - not came in at ten to one like this lot are singing- if you're gonna sing someone else's song - at least the words right!
It started out at 50 to 1, a steamer.
Loosen up
@@EaterOfBaconSandwiches Children are dying of hunger? - well maybe the adults should stop having children if they can't afford to feed them!
Love this song.... This is wierd and a bit creepy though. Like a wierd cult singing it. Look at the frightened faces
Terrible
Fabulous!
