My favorite Irish song of all time - the Dubliners from the heart!

This song, this performance, will make Paddy Reilly live forever. Well done yourself!

Nobody sings that song better than PADDY REILLY brilliant

I was born in the 70s and The Dubliners will always be the band I will think of if I think of Ireland (and I am not in any way connected to that island). They were a legend. Not to take away from other bands before and after, but they showed the world what Irish music is all about: the good and the bad, the drinking and the crying, the dancing and the fighting, love and death...all rolled up into a few minutes of mournful and yet beautiful and uplifting song (or happy, yet depressingly themed reel). I will have to visit the Land of Green one day, possibly before meeting ya all on Fiddlers Green^^

Paddy sings this like no other. He is the master It’s as if the song was written for him. He creates the entire atmosphere. Good on ya Paddy

My mom's favorite song, God bless her soul. Every time I use to visit Newfoundland I'd have to sing this song for mom.

Nobody sings this song better than Paddy Reilly

The Dubliners and Paddy Reilly really do justice to the song

Beautifully sung by Paddy Reilly. Love this Irish song 🎵 💚

Just makes me want to visit the Ireland from where my great grandparents came from. Maybe, just maybe, one day

It’s as if god put this man on Earth to sing this song. So Lovely

This song always brings a tear to my eyes . Fanfeckingtastic .

Make a person homesick listen to this great music!

The author of this song passed away today. Rest peacefully, in the fields you have sewn. Peace awaits 💕

Always brings a tear to my eye .And I'm a proud welshman🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿👏👏👏👏👏

Sittin' here listening, crying--my husband says I'm too emotional...

Makes me cry it's so beautiful and meaningful so proud to be irish

I have so many wonderful memories with my Irish husband and our happy time in Irelsnd

My grandfather used to be the main singer of an irish folk band, but he always wanted his buddies to sing some of the songs. Such as this one. This song always brings tears to my eyes in his memory. (RIP Ed Deacy)

Used to drink in an Irish pub in Toronto. McVeigh’s Tavern on Church Street. Bands direct from Ireland and no cover charge. This was where I first heard this song, and I absolutely love it! A sad but lovely song about Britain’s abuse of a wonderful people and still rings true! Spent at least two nights/month drinking Harp and eating up the music!

I loved this since I was little, Dubliners do it the best 💚🤍🧡

Beautiful..This song fills my heart with pride and sadness..God bless my Ireland 🇮🇪💚🤍💛☘️☘️☘️.

Paddy a legend and way overlooked as a legend

As an Englishman, when you've had an Athenry Ploughwoman get out of her tractor, link arms with you and sing this, nothing can top it!

I never tire of singing that song in my celtic band.

This song always makes me cry. The heart wrenching lyrics get to me every time. I'm crying right now.

Nobody sings it like an Irishman wonderful memories of my time in beautiful Ireland Dinger

One day per year I call myself ... I love to hear this version ... American Irish cover bands have their merits too. Respect with a bow.

Brilliance personified, good man Paddy Reilly!

paddy you are a legend, nothing else needs to be said

Beautiful song, I love the Irish people I just wish there was no hatred between us,

Paddy Sings this song with true feeling from the heart

Just absolutely gorgeous. Blows me away every time I hear it. 👍👍👍

This song is truly a one off sung beautiful

No one sings this song like Paddy Reilly

My Mams favourite song played at her funeral in 2007 xx Fly with the free birds 🐦 Mam 😇 xx

That’s genuinely the saddest song I have ever heard, I weep every time I hear it. I can’t imagine how sad Irish people would feel when they hear this.

John so steady and planted, never a sour note I can recall.

Beautiful song and a great story.....thank you !!

ALWAYS makes me teary-eyed. 💚🎶☘️🇮🇪💚

Rest in the Fields, Pete.

Inspiring and still sends shivers down my spine.

By a lonely prison wall I heard a young girl calling "Michael, they have taken you away! For you stole Trevalyan'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 the prison ship sailed out against the sky For she'll live and hope and pray For her love in Botany Bay 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 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

Outstanding lovely song with feeling

As a Yorkshireman, this song makes me hangnail my head in shame!

There can't be many countries that the DUBLINERS haven't played in around the world . Fanfeckingtastic .

If you listen to the quality of paddy reilly's voice versus him singing the same song 20-30-40 years before, today's voice has a much fuller and deeper quality to it. Perhaps it is all the nights in the pubs and concert halls, but I certainly love today's version. God bless Paddy Reilly. There is something about the quality of paddy reilly's voice that has a richness to it. I don't know how to explain it, but his voice is very comforting to my ear. God bless us all.

Only one can sing this wonderful song... Only Paddy 👏🏻

Brilliantly sung

Great voice Paddy
