Hey, thank you for being here! Drop a big "ALIVE ALIVE OH!" into the comments for the KZfaq algorithm

hey Patty, this is a brilliant cover of our famous Irish girl. 25 years ago (you might not even have been born then.) my father was manager of a small recording company, based here in Dublin. they dealt with traditional folk music and I'm sure they would have snapped you up then. after the company closed, my father retired, and a few years back was diagnosed with Lewy body's dementia. when I last seen him he didn't remember who I was but could remember the song I played for him, (over the hills and far away.) which was one of your songs. I was planning to play this for when I got to see him next, but a month after this video he sadly lost his fight for life, due to this covid and his condition. however, when I listen to your songs, I can still see that enjoyment in his face and it lets me know that he is now free from his pains and still watching over our family. so a big thank you from me to you. keep singing and bringing joy to all.

Thanx too Patty, I love such traditional songs from over the world. Blessings from Bavaria, southern Germany ❤🍻

I feel like the reason this song has held on so long, and why it has such strong emotion tied to it, is because it gives the feeling that even the most seemingly insignificant person can have their absence deeply felt by people around them. Even just a street-seller that you hear shouting every day can leave a noticeable gap in your life when they're gone.

I'm a simple man, i hear Molly Malone by Patty Gurdy, i comment "ALIVE ALIVE OH!"

I remember my father singing this to me as a young boy, thank you

ALIVE ALIVE OH ‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️

Irish tradition. Thank you Patty. You have a Celtic heart. Beautiful you are 💚

I love the outfit she's wearing I love the scenary I love the song

Very beautiful rendition. This music makes me WISH I was Irish.. There's something unique to Celtic music that just has a powerful soul and energy about it..

Bless the fighting spirit of all Irish everywhere!

As a Native Houstonian, i like anything with a folk or country feel

Her beauty, style, and singing just makes my soul yearn for a world that, tho I never experienced, was a whole lot different than this one.... 🤔

It’s gotten to the point that I can’t decide which I love more, your voice or your hurdy gurdy playing.

I loved this when I was a kid . It popped in to my head the other night just before bed time . I have no idea why . I can't remember for the life of me who sang the version I know in my head . I saw Patty's version . I've recorded some of her songs before . Patty dose a beautiful version I'm satisfied . I will keep searching for the one I remember as a young boy . Thank you patty for such a lovely version of Molly Malone . ❤❤❤ Sydney Australia 🦘🦘 🦘🦘🦘🦘 2)12/2023 I'm if Irish descent my ancestors trace back to county Cork . My mother's maiden name was Murphy .

This lit a fire in my chest. Happy and honored to be one of 32 million Americans of Irish descent.

There are many great songs for the Hurdy-Gurdy, this is one of them, and performed beautifully. Thank you Patty.

My Irish heart sings, and I’m brought to tears once more. Our girl, sweet sweet Molly, would be so proud!! 🍀❤️💜🕯

ALIVE ALIVE OH SWEET MOLLY ❤PATTY

I am nearly 78 years old, and only just found this on KZfaq. It is a truly great rendition of a very old traditional Irish song. Patty you have something truly unique in the way you play the Hudy Gurdy. Have you considered singing any of these other old traditonal songs. The Ashgrove Padstow Blow the Wind Southerly Rose of Tralee Ar Hyd y nos Danny Boy Would love to see you perform some of these

This song has stood the test of time.

Danke Patty..... Alive, Alive oh

Nice version of Planxty Irwin between verses. And haunting singing. Beautiful.

Ich liebe diesen Song so sehr. In all seinen verschiedenen Versionen ist dieser Song in seiner Grundessenz einfach immer gleich. Und das im positivsten Sinne!

my mom used to sing this as a lullaby to me as a kid, this gave me a good flashback to childhood

This version of Molly Malone is truly beautiful!

I feel like this is the best version Ive heard.

The Shawl!!! The voice is GRAND!! But many don't know about the shawls.

Incredible performance. This coming from a native of Ireland who has heard this song many many times.💚🍀

I'm so excited, Patty Gurdy is the prettiest girl in the whole world, with an amazing voice that I love to hear, and her sing choices are pretty amazing as well

dear Patty Gurdy - your voice is "supreme" .. I prefer to listen instruments, but- your voice is godsend instrument to me

Well there's a match...A tale of a medieval street hawker, on a medieval instrument. Add the pretty lass singing the song and you get 3 for 3. I'm enchanted and transported back in time. It must be witchcraft.

So beautiful... the music of the Irish. Small though their isle may be.... their musical impact upon the world, is all out of proportion to their numbers. May God bless the Irish, and their emerald isle... a small slice of heaven, given to mankind.

ALIVE, ALIVE O one of the songs my mother used to sing. This is a lovely rendition.

Lovely version beautiful song beautiful girl. something very emotional of this version

This is the first song i learned to play on the autoharp in 4th grade you do it so much more better ilove it!

True artistry is when someone is telling the tale of a song sung for centuries and it calls up feelings of emotion and thoughtful appreciation of times long ago. Nice work! ALIVE ALIVE OH! 😊

Sie ruft: "Herzmuscheln und Miesmuscheln. ALIVE ALIVE OH!"

ALIVE ALIVE OH! such a pretty voice and song

Mash episode "that's show biz" brought me here.. and I am not disappointed.. awesome!

ALIVE ALIVE OOOOHHHHH... Frost and Faeries is my favourite non rock/metal release of 2020

How can you not love this? Haunting of memories of past lives

Beautiful 🎵🎵🍀🍀👍👍

Generic fella in the US here. I have no idea why, but a lot of this Irish/Celitc music really has a resonance with me. I've been enjoying this music for a number of years now.

This song is even sadder when you listen to it in the midst of a pandemic :'-( But what an epic performance! It does bring Molly Malone's ghost back. "ALIVE ALIVE OH!"

I've heard this song a million times from a bunch of different artists and this is the first time that it made me cry thank you for such a beautiful rendition

Why is it that as I get older songs like this mean more?

Alive Alive Oh Great video, thanks for making it.

ALIVE ALIVE OOHH!!!!

I absolutely LOVE your dress and that beautiful shoulder warming blanket. Absolutely amazing.

Hallo Patty, like for this song and place, see you soon.

I must be Irish ☘ I like this music a lot …I some English to 🎻👍

Patty's version is, without a doubt THE BEST EVER! Patty, you are truly awesome! I love your music!

ALIVE ALIVE OH! That's for the music and the smiles

Beautiful!

You're stunning !!!!! And the song is so beautiful !!!!!

Paddy, i bow to your talents. Singing, acting, and wonderful smiling... stay fresh at the irish sea, ALIVE ALIVE OH, and above all: healthy !!!!

Your the kind of artist people love, but never quite get the recognition you deserve for your talent and skills!

ALIVE ALIVE OH! Lots of love from India.

Transported me back to the streets of Dublin. Hauntingly beautiful. 💚🇮🇪☘️

Walking along the beach in the gray, wet, and chilly weather and actually picking up something in the sand is perfect for this song. Your song and music are beautiful, and the video goes so well with the traditional lyrics. A fitting, melancholy tribute to the countless Molly Malones who actually made their living this way over the centuries.

ALIVE ALIVE OH! not for algorithm... ok for algorithm too, but most of all because I like this folk inspiried music that you do. Greetings from Poland PS. I adore your hair.

Я Русский родом из СССР и до сих пор живу в России. По роду своей деятельности часто бывал в Шотландии. И самого начала мне очень понравились песни и мелодии свободолюбивого народа Шотландии. С тех пор я много пересмотрел фильмов и программ про Шотландию, но музыка и песни завораживают меня до сих пор. Спасибо вам большое за их великолепное исполнение, слушая их чувствую что душой я шотландец.

Love the video and it's views.... Not the same as the Dubliners from a singing standpoint, but I'm a fan! I named my Dog after my favorite City that I have ever been to in Dublin. Been around the World, but Love Dublin City the best! Wish I would have had more than 3 days... but it was so cool to meet Dubliners and travel with them for the 12 pubs of Christmas. Man, they would love my Dog Dublin!

We're lucky to have you keeping them ole tunes alive

Dear Patty you are not making it easy to shed people thinking your Irish with this song. Like you I am considered Irish because my last name is Irish but from my father I am three quarters German and one quarter Irish. I love all your music and you only have to tell me once. I really love your hair color and hope you never change it.

I remember i learned the lyrics in 6.grade here in Norway, lyrics stuck and so are the melody 20 years later

Un bravo d'un nouveau vielleux que je suis, un baiser de Provence et de Lorraine pour une belle performance so Irish.... So hurry gurdy is for ever from lands of old legends, and from éternel 'Lov for fairy music

Being Irish myself,this song tears me up every time I hear it.

Alive, alive oh! This was amazing and I was glad to be a part of the premiere.

My love for ever to Ireland, Molly Mallone, Cockles, Mussels an You! ALIVE ALIVE OH!

ALIVE ALIVE OH from Canada! Awesomeness!

Thanks Patty.... needed this today.... been a bad day in a bad month, and I was almost in a fight with my wife over something stupid.... turned on my phone and THIS.... one of my FAVORITE traditional songs.... Thanks for brightening my day

We really need you in the states...like bad

Alive Alive HO! I do love your music so love the way you sound I love the music and play Alive Alive HO!

"ALIVE ALIVE OH!" Brava, Patty! ☘ 💚🤍🧡

I love you Patty, this isn’t cultural appropriation, this is a salute to the Irish! Regardless of you being of German extraction, this was one of the best versions ever! You killed it!

I love the song so heart felt because I have Irish roots decedent from the O'Carroll clan awesome job 🤘🍻🍀

Had to learn this at school in Melbourne!: Loved it then and now

wonderful

Magnificent. Deserves a billion views.

Who would have believed this from Patty. No wrong, Patty can do anything she wants. A lovely video. How can Patty be so beautiful, be so talented and have such a wonderful voice?

Alive, alive oh. Keep playing your beautiful music. And I agree with you, summer sucks. 😄

Danke Patty

I love Patty Gurdy

My favorite song yes!!

An diesem Lied ist einfach ALLES wunderschön-

beautiful German girl. unbelievable. Music knows no frontieres. When I`m down, this music saves me. thanks

I'm only a quarter Irish but I more than halfway cried.

My dear Patty. This is one of the best songs on youtube (your version). It touches my soul. But it´s a small comunity here that loves a goooood song. Most people don´t understand what magic music is. Greatings from Germany and ...... "ALIVE ALIVE OH!"

We sang this song--only the first verse--when I was in grade school and junior high in small-town Kansas over 45 years ago. I still love it.

Sehr gut für ein deutsches Mädchen. Ich habe vor Jahren von Ihrer Heimat aus operiert und das hübscheste Mädchen Deutschlands geheiratet. Sie stammte aus dem Norden, in der Nähe von Hannover. Du bist ein wunderschönes Mädchen mit einem wunderschönen Lied; mach weiter.

It seriously irritates me how underrated Patty is. I was first brought to her music in 2019, and here I am in 2021, still listening all the time!

ALIVE ALIVE OH Superschöne Version. Die traditionelle Kleidung steht dir großartig.

Stunning are ye and thy voice Lassie, more even than a four leaf clover, It appears that to ye has He given it all.....be well beautiful one...love Carl...ALIVE ALIVE OH

Alive Alive Oh! indeed! This gives me goosebumps.
