@TheDublinersOfficial are legendary folk band formed in 1962! I am a big fan of their art - and my RU-vid career grew frankly because of the popularity.
I remember when I went to Ireland, I went on a tour and the bus driver sang this song, and he invited other people to come up and sing songs from their countries as well. Hands down, the best tour I’ve ever been on.
Hands down, if there was an Aussie there, he sang Waltzing Matilda. Went thru Europe one summer on a bus tour with an Aussie driver - he played that one alot and all the Aussies sang that. Best trip of my life!
I had an elderly Irishman as my Latin teacher in high school, and he was a delight! Every St. Patrick's Day, instead of working, we would literally do nothing except listen to Irish music (Including this song) for 40 minutes straight. It was such an awesome experience that my friend and I continue to listen to the same songs to this day (which is St. Patrick's, btw :D)
I had an elderly Irishman for my Latin teacher, as well! He was my favorite teacher! I loved his class! What a character he was! He was the St. Patrick’s Day Parade Marshall one year in our city!
My grandfather passed away this year and this song will always remind me of the times he would take me and my brother places when we were little and play Irish music in his car on the way there. He was a really good man and I’ll always miss him.
Im really sorry about that and i hope your feeling better. I can somewhat relate i remember my nan singing this before she passed , its nice to have songs that remind you of family whove passed on
Such good memories for you!! As long as you carry him in your heart,he'll never truly die!! Just looove this song!! Was at a fish fry a couple days ago and they had a band who was playing this song. Was singing and clapping along with everyone else! Love all the Irish songs,especially now,around St. Patrick's Day !! Erin Go Bragh!!!
This was played as the entry song for my sons funeral as he loved the dubliners and it was very fitting for him as he was a wonderful character who loved people ❤ xxxxxx
Singing this in the clubs of Newcastle with the entire club screaming at the top of their lungs....I cry because where I'm now, they don't even know the song...makes me want to come home...I love this song so much
@@chrissymon this isn't even Luke on lead. Please look him up. He wasn't called the red haired minstrel for nothing. I was born in America but I know Luke kelly and paddy Rielly are treasures of Ireland (Erin)
What? No clapping after each “No, Nay, Never?” 4 claps...👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 😉🍻 Fun times! I miss getting out & hearing the boys singing this in Western Massachusetts, US.
On St Patrick's Day where I live and bars were open. There's a band that sings this at a bar I go to. Also, there is a series of claps that happen after the first no nay never. It is fantastic.
I've been in Ireland in 2014, it was an amazing journey so much that I promised myself I'll live one day in Dublin. I just fell in love with its culture and history immediately. Also Dublin is very beautiful and people are kind and funny, they made me feel like I was home even if that was my first trip in another country, all by myself.
The undetected hero I read your comment. I’m planning on returning home to my second country the Philippines which I call it the Ireland of the Far East/Pacific Rim Island nation chain. If I weren’t going to return there, I would be moving to Ireland where my great grandfather O’Rourke & my 2 great grand uncles were driven out of Ireland about 1869/1870 and headed for Pittston, PA worked the coal mines in the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre area.
Ireland is a place i'd so much love to visit, I love the culture from what i've read up on already and it's history as well, and the songs like this are lovely to listen to. I hope I can stay awhile there soon!
Serbs think of Irish people as our relatives in Europe, such as Slavic nations are to us. Our two biggest cities were established by the Celts. You would be suprised how many Celtic toponyms exist in Serbia. Greetings, Lads!
Zdravo Gospodin Prikaza! Je sam Irlanska-Kanadaska i takodje, jako volim Srbiju! (apologies for my crappy Serbian, I was trying to say I love Serbia a lot: you all have had your fair share of battles against brutal colonization, a lot like Ireland)
I am 69 living in England and just before the Covid I discovered my ancestry in Cork . I went to visit and met cousins and next week I am returned to meet them again. Last time they were singing ballads and asked me to sing one . I didn’t know any ! This time I am going prepared by learning this ballad.
Just heard this at the Apple Picking place in Princeton, New Jersey while sipping wine and eating veggie soup. The crowd was not that engaged but the duo kept trucking along with great Irish music. I am black Latina but love music of all types.
Whenever I hear this song it takes me back to my youth many years ago in Zambia. Drinking sessions at the gliding club in Mufulira always ended with this song.
The Dubliners are the greatest Folk Band I ever heard. And they had TWO of the most Iconic voices in all the folk genre, Luke Kelly and Ronnie Drew. I cannot express enough how truly incredible their music has been to listen too.
I'm indian and I equally love this song.. I wish to hang out with my Irish brothers and Sisters someday and shout the chorus together.. Most my indian pals don't know this gem of an Irish song..
Proud Englishman here, but have Irish family and love going to Ireland. Never met a more friendly and funny group of people, beautiful country, beautiful people
Wow, The Wild Rover by The Dubliners is such a classic folk song! The lyrics are simple yet powerful, telling the story of a wild rover who has spent all of his money on whiskey and beer, but now returns home with gold and vows to never lead a wild life again. The chorus is incredibly catchy and memorable, with the repetition of "no, nay, never" driving home the point that the wild rover has truly changed his ways. The Dubliners do a fantastic job bringing the song to life, with their unique blend of traditional Irish instruments and powerful vocals. The guitar and banjo provide the perfect backdrop for the singer to tell the story, while the use of harmonies adds a layer of depth to the chorus. One of the things I love about this song is how it can be interpreted in different ways. Some might see it as a cautionary tale about the dangers of excessive drinking and partying, while others might see it as a story of redemption and turning one's life around. Either way, it's a timeless piece of music that has stood the test of time. #TheDubliners #TheWildRover #FolkMusic #IrishMusic #ClassicSongs #MusicHistory #Redemption #DrinkingSongs #SingAlong #FolkSingAlong

Hey there, greetings from Arlington, Va. I'm half southern/half Yankee! Good Times....er...Bad Times! Oh well....from Mass. to Dixie....WE...are...ALL....AMERICANS! and from similar backgrounds. Blessings to thee friend...Peace! EML
I am 78 yrs old but I just heard a song that every word is still in my head from good old college days. The Dubliners The Wild Rover. It was one of our favorite drinking songs. Is there any better drinking songs ! I'm 20 again today..
I rocked up in Zimbabwe (Rhodesia) just at the end of the Rhodesian bush war. Salisbury was full of ex-pats from Europe and the Anglosphere--overlanders, bullet chasers, chancers and characters of all sorts. Every weekend there was a party at some ex-pat "mess" where we grilled meat outside and drank beer. Sometimes someone would start singing this song, and the rest of us would do the chorus. A lot of Wild Rovers there--I guess we all were.
I was like 8yo when I first came to Ireland, Galway. I was with my father and sisters, we went on a boat from France, and I don't remember much from that time, but I remember one thing, this song ! I was sung all the time in the boat, and I loved it ! Now I am 30, back to Galway to try to live here, and I am happy my manager found this song for me ❤
Thank you for uploading this. I've had it as an earworm and even dreamed about it for about two weeks now. Couldn't remember the title, but just searched RU-vid for No, nay, never et voila. And then sat and sang at the top of my lungs. There's something magical about Irish folk and ballads.
In my experience the Brazilian people I'v met are some of the warmest&friendlest!So they may not realise it,but they really are "kindred Spirits"....So it's no surprise 2nd that u like this.✌out🍀
Ah all the family parties where the men would get drunk and start sing songs. My stepsister and her boyfriend came over from Australia. First time the lad met us and he had some craic. He said he loves the atmosphere we had in the house.
Captivates and transports the mind to vast stretches of open irish fields of early morn wet with the rain of last night. U cant help but believe in being an entire vagabond as u travel down these grounds. I can almost smell the fresh rain washed soil of dawn. Unfortunate enough such simple songs with simple words painting a simple picture are solely missed in the present post modern age. Greetings from India
My family moved from Waterford Ireland to County Durham in the 1900s. We are still keeping the Irish traditions alive up here. You’ll never beat the ☘️
Simeler time as my family but they moved to Washington, ashington one of them places in the north east my nana great grandad and nanna were Meehans from mayo I've never even been Ireland but would love to see where my ancestors were from
Mijn lieve Walther van mij! Dankjewel voor dit supermooie liedje! Hiermee maak jij mij zooo supergelukkug en jij tovert hiermee een grote lach op mijn gezicht! Ik ben zoo stapelverliefd op jou!
I'll be moving to Ireland this year and to be honest I'm currently trying to learn as many Irish songs as possible so that I can sing along when there's live music in a pub. Irish folks, got any other recommendations? I'm currently learning Rocky Road to Dublin as well 😂
Canadian here. Been to Ireland & England (family in both), studied German in my first year of university (hallo!) and I have yet to travel there too! I love Germany, hope to go there so bad, and it makes me happy you guys love Canada a ton I'm told. I know lots of Germans, and to my knowledge they really like Ireland too! Is this true for many Germans, do they love Ireland too?
