Did you know Green eyes are the rarest colour in the world with only 2% of the global population having green eyes and the highest concentration of green eyed people are in Ireland, Scotland and Iceland, I am not sure what the ratio for green eyes is in these countries but for all of the, the percentage of the population with Green or Blue eyes is 87%, just some pointless facts for you:)

Being black haired and blue eyed is the rarest combo from what I’ve heard!

I'm an English lad who loves the Irish accent and want to visit ireland

@@SC-vs7ik I was born with two green eyes, however due to an injury to one of my eyes when I was young, it changed the color of my one eye, where one eye is normal and green, one is squinty like a lazy eye and brown!

I would take that as a win, Tessa! Hello from Canada!

Danke

Thank you 💚

@Marc Phelan thx ❤❤❤

Ireland loves the Germanys are Celtic brothers

I imagine Steve Earle is of Irish descent.

Truly it is , can't wait to go back to the green Island , never met so lovely and warmhearted people , Greetz from Germany 🇩🇪🇮🇪

@@gokalpu.710 same here with our German friends. I travel to Germany a bit and they are Great people.

My ancestors are from Ireland and I’m a musician and I got to visit ! Love the music , but then again I got Irish blood in my veins .

@@bradleyswaringen7244 when you do come, go to the west of Ireland including Clare and Galway

@Richard L great time for the Scots, our Celtic cousins.

Brought tears to my eyes too....Oh how I wish I were in Ireland!

Courage my friend. Those days will return. I’m already looking forward to it. Best regards from Belgium.

You're not alone with those emotions friend. Love Steve Earle but there's something magical about this. Greetings from Chicago.

Next St. Paddy's I'm going to go craaaaazzzzy....2022!!

you are not alone

Galway and Ireland never left!

@@danbytp think he's means "come back" in metaphorical sense. Lets face facts Ireland isn't the real Ireland as we once knew it! It's a capitalist hell hole with absolutely no glimmer of what once was authentic Ireland!

@@IrishRose There were too many people in Ireland that weren't personally vested there and were very myopic in the culture and other aspects of Ireland especially in the people so any benefits of capitalism went elswhere.Basically, England's occupation all over again.(SIGH!)Let's hope the Irish Peoplle will figure it out together and find something that benefits as many as possible.Your thoughts?

@@danbytp the English haven't been our problem in decades. England as the rest of Europe are finding out very quickly that diversity isn't a strength. We as a race of people are told it's Nobel to surrender your identity, nationalism and heritage for the sake of multiculturalism ( which doesn't work) Look at the news and next time when you hear "gangs of youths" on the news be aware it's droves of anchor babies all grown up! I remember when Provo's wouldn't tolerate antisocial behaviour.. now they sit back and commend it! What changed?

@@IrishRose Believe it or not I agree.I have friends here in Southern California that still have family and friends in Ireland."Diversity" to me is a bunch of bs.It's a ploy for those who have surrendered to outside idiots who don't care for the country they live in and give it away to other idiots.The gangs of anchor babies don't have any idea of who the Irish have been for centuries.It's also starting to be a problem here in the States as well with those from south of here.Don't get me wrong there ate those who have contributed to the "fabric" of the culture here.We have people from around the world as does Ireland.However, I have noticed that there is a percentage that don't care for the prevailing culture and don't want to add positively to here.It seems that our countries are being "colonies" of these other countries.I have learned that when I have visited the 11 countries I've been to is to adhere to their way of doing things.That's how we learn how great these places are to visit.I'm from New York City and have area of different ethnicities.We all get along and appreciate what they bring to the table.When these Neighborhoods have a cultural festival all the visitors are "of that culture" and literally have the time of their lives.My wife is Filipina and she enjoys my Scottish,Irish, and German heritages and she has a blast participating as such.Likewise, I have a great time being a temporary Filipino like when I was during the 5 weeks in the Philipines.My son lives in Colombia for the last few years and has no intentions of moving any time soon.His girlfriend has taught him the Culture and he s doing great.And I get to practice my Spanish when I speak with them.And I love it, too.So, in conclusion, I really hope the Irish hold on to being Irish.My Irish Grandmothet was 2nd generation and she never gave up being Irish till the day she passed at 82.God bless her!

@shannonsutherland2450 Right back at you Shannon xx

not enough Galway girls to go around sadly

100%

Because it would not be something special anymore :) but yeah you are right the world be a much funnier and happy place :P

thanx to the Folk of Ireland...i felt me everytime welcome as a german😘

Hello an Spáinn

@@romanhohaus5867 Hello an Ghearmáin

Well we do love our celtic brothers in galicia

Spain one of Ireland's greatest friends. ♥️

I don't think they're as happy as this *all* the time actually, but this is indeed an adorable and enjoyable video. ^___^

I want to visit England, Ireland and Scotland.

The people in this are from all over the world and are happy to be in Galway for the song. As far as the people of Ireland being habitually this happy: I wish. 😉 But I think they are often at their happiest when they are singing. 🎶

Oh you NEED to see the St Patrick's Day parade in Dublin that goes from O'Connell street to Kevin street. The atmosphere is AMAZING!!!!! From a proud Irish 🇮🇪☘️

@@Groggie1 It may aswel be a rainbow parade 😴😴😴

Perfect remark ha krank it up n smile

Thanks bud 👍

Thank u come back again

I am late but yeah Thanks

Thanks I’m from Ireland and I appreciate this comment

Love ya too

@@thunorwodenson I don't understand why its considered non inclusive for a culture to remain intact. Yes, they want to cancel our cultures for a universal existence. If a black person WANTED to join the cultural Irish dance, then he /she would have the right. It's like here in the USA, seems all the TV shows have the token lgbt characters now. And I am not anti lgbt. Seems if they are not included, then the show is labeled racist. Its disusting!

@@thunorwodenson Now that is totally logical. You are absolutely correct.

Christopher V. Pepe yes very important to preserve Irish culture.

Cheers

Simply awesome. Love it.

Couldn't agree more. (at 75; )

What a delightful thing to say.... As an Irish person.. thank you 😊

Nice one bud thanks

You too mate 💚❤️

All of you (french kiss) 😘

Si, To me the greatest country in our Europe is Italy, it’s the only country outside of Eire that I think is beautiful, Can’t wait to be there.

@@margaretsmyth6783 great! Hope you’d like our beautiful country!🇮🇹🇮🇪

@@margaretsmyth6783 except Germany

If you invite us to your parade, we'll invite you to ours. We practically have the same flag!!

Thank you, Rahul.

😀 Well some of them are. Especially my Irish sweet heart ex-boyfriend...but the IRA are total bastards

Hello Donna. Sorry for intruding your privacy, I just want to know if you’re a fan?

@@martinluisakennedy212 I am a fan of all things Irish. ☘️🙏🏼☮️

I like the wink, you must know this song was written by an American!

youre welcome back anytime!

@BGDonH Right back at you xx

Freedom brother

Great love to the basque

Aha Dave, be careful what you wish for, as they say...LOL...they are easy on the eye, but not on the mind....I've been up and down that street in every pub and club a 1000 times, and trust me, beware...there is a lid for every pot and my dear mother says...

When I was young 1950s In the old family farmhouse I came across an old letter written in pencil might have been from the late 1800's to my grandfather to say that uncles (my grand uncles) had arrived safely the address they gave was 48 Main Street Lima Ohio.. I am an old retired sea capain now but I never forgot the moment. James Neill Limerick

Dwier in Irish is O'Duibhir or Mac Duibhir :)

Thats a lovely thing to say. Im from Galway and it is the friendliest part of Ireland. Hope you can return to us some day💖

LOVE AND STRENGTH FROM IRELAND 🍀x x

Luck of my decent from the red haired lad McGilroy from Co. CORK I believe

Ha ha that's hilarious.....we say in Ireland ´you don't come to Ireland for the sunshine, you come for the people´😃

A hug from Spain 🇪🇸 .. Spain has always loved Ireland 🇮🇪 and so it will be forever ....

@@sonnyburnett4321 THANKYOU beautiful Spain 🇪🇸 😘 ❤ always n forever love from Ireland 🇮🇪

Cry with happiness when I see this,euphoric and uplifting, people of all ages enjoying themselves, great atmosphere

I can’t lie. These are just facts. The music is one thing with the variety of instruments, the second is the singers, Mundy and the 14,999+ others, absolutely belting out what is probably Galway’s unofficial anthem like nothing else, and the third is the views of Irish culture from the line dancers to the instruments themselves. It just radiates love and joy for their city, music, and culture that permeates everything. I think I’ll keep coming back to this recording for years to come.

The Gods of Old bless us

Viva Espana. Always liked Spain and the Spanish. Yeah we have similar humour.. Irish blood lines derive from Iberia, so maybe that's why we like each other so much!😅

Up the Galicians. Yeah we love Spain too. Two very passionate musical people looking forward to the day I can holiday in northen Spain.

Northwestern Spain has it's own Celtic culture mixed with Spanish and Portuguese cultures.No wonder the Spanish and Irish get along!

@@wolftrapman mmm I know Galicia ... and the Galicians are almost all brown, olive skin ... some even look like Arabs. They are nothing like the Irish. They don't even have a Celtic language. Galician is of Latin origin, related to Portuguese.

Interesting clip by Diarmuid Gavin, the blood of the Irish. Shows a very old connection with Spain.

Thank Gov

Way late but hope you had a good one!

Hello Karen. Sorry for intruding your privacy, I just want to know if you’re a fan?

Yup same krank it up n smile

80 year old is young for some here when you are having the craic

Come on over. Your welcome here anytime

You should hear some of our Other songs!

Come on over for a few pints of Guinness ...

Honestly there is alot of people from the Philippines over here so you would easily fit in

My Filipina wife loves Ireland and Scotland.Maybe that's why she likes being with me.😏

Just spent 5 weeks in the Philippines meself! We love you lads too.

Those 1.4 k are probably American democrats.

@Peacelily completely missed my point in my comment. Not once did I say the Scots share the Irish culture. Why would we want to share Irish culture when we have a very proud one of our own. If you're going to comment then make sure you read and understand the initial comment first.

@Peacelily wow..... Good on you.

Probably aussies, they just see it upside down

@@andreykazurov8714 typical convict mentality 🤣😂🤣😂 oh sorry we are NOT putting other nations down just because they aren't as good as us 😂😂😂😂

I hope life is better for you now. Sending you lots of love from Ireland. Xx

wishing you all the best from ireland

A Texan wrote the song. Steve Earle.

You don't need anymore. Once you have an ounce of irish blood in u is enough

Thats a lot of Irish .Welcome🍀😂👍

Hello! How are you doing today! Please pardon me for intruding into your privacy but I just wanted to know if you're a fan!....Stay safe

Viva Mehico Senor, ce paso amigo...? Just swop out the Tequila for Jameson, and we're set...LOL"

But the fun is: The song was written by an guy from Texas, USA

@@mathiassiebert1217 whatever it is or whoever wrote it I love it

You have wonderful taste.

Austin Texas right there with ya

I've lived in Texas for 4 years, originally from the Midlands of Ireland, couldn't agree more, a great song by a great Texan about a great Irish county

Steve Earle is the man. Johnny Come Lately another Irish tinged belter.

Rikki0, Galway is the very best. If you ever get to visit just one city in Ireland go to galway

Shows how similar Irish music is to Appalachian country, it's the same!
