The moment during the thumbnail is one of the most wholesome things I’ve ever seen on stage at a show. Ten years prior to this show, I remember me and my buddies swinging together while they played this. Memories remain!
By a lonely prison wall, I heard a young girl calling Michael, they have taken you away, For you stole Trevelyan's corn, So the young might see the morn. Now a prison ship lies waiting in the bay. Low lie the fields of Athenry Where once we watched the small free birds fly Our love was on the wing, we had dreams and songs to sing It's so lonely 'round the fields of Athenry. By a lonely prison wall, I heard a young man calling Nothing matters, Mary, when you're free Against the famine and the Crown, I rebelled, they cut me down. Now you must raise our child with dignity. Low lie the fields of Athenry Where once we watched the small free birds fly Our love was on the wing, we had dreams and songs to sing It's so lonely 'round the fields of Athenry. By a lonely harbor wall, she watched the last star falling As that prison ship sailed out against the sky Sure she'll wait and hope and pray, for her love in Botany Bay It's so lonely 'round the fields of Athenry. It's so lonely 'round the fields of Athenry. Low lie the fields of Athenry Where once we watched the small free birds fly Our love was on the wing, we had dreams and songs to sing It's so lonely 'round the fields of Athenry

My fiancée bought pit tickets to them and Rancid!!! I was suppose to go see DKM for my birthday last year but thanks to fucking COVID I didn’t get to do that.
Al never sings for this song. He was in the show, but there are some songs like this song as well as Cruel (I can only think of one other song) where Al isn't doing any vocal duties.

Does anyone else cry to this song? Asking for a friend.
On behalf of myself and nobody else…yes, yes I do. There’s a few songs of theirs I get emotional about.
I do. Almost every time I listen.
I'm also an ignorant American.
Errrm....yep....maybe....
why? 😢 Such a great version of this song and such a fuckin great band 💚
I do
Yes it was my grandads favourite song ever

Great. But where is Al ?

@@theevildrummingsithlord1492 Thanks for your answer. I did not know that.
@@AD-ri7bv No problem. That's why in the studio version, you don't hear Al.
The English have humour. The Welsh have tenacity. The Scots have passion. But no writes a song like the Irish.
You dropped kicked the shit Bhoys, HH
