Great Version ! Good job. greetings from germany Joachim Griebe
This is STUNNING 🥰
Brilliant 👍👍👍
That is an awesome rendition of a classic. The young guy has an exceptional talent.
Brilliant Josh, love it.Paul Brady wud B proud of ye. Actually Bob Dylan invited Paul Brady to one of his concerts in d USA, after d gig Bob asked him to play his version of this song, which Paul did, Bob then started playing Paul's arrangement at his own gigs (without mentioning Paul). True story, check it out. I love Bob anyway, his songs ect, but still........

Yeah, Bob redid the version of Arthur McBride from Paul Brady. It’s ancient folk songs. It is ok to not mention …
Great cover!
Wonderful ! I could listen to Josh's Lovely Singing Voice Forever ! 💜
Mighty performance
My big regret!! Not continuing guitar when I was a young buck. Lovely playing here 👏👏
Absolutely beautiful sounds of a storytelling artist and nice up-close camera work. Thank you Josh and Sean.

So melancholic and romantic. I heard this song for the first time. What a great story telling voice and beautiful guitar play. TY for sharing.
Very well played and sung. Good to see some stopping and appreciating this lovely enchanting song.

People actgually prefer garbage to quality. Plus they think it has io be in a big hall with a crowd and over priced tickets.
Bravo 👏
Wow, Josh has just joined the list of other highly notable performers of this amazing early 19th century song, I had never heard of it before and it is worthwhile looking up the history and its perceived origins. Sean you are Blessed to have captured this superb version by Josh, his guitar skills are so smooth and relaxed , which is complemented by equally superb vocals.............Thank you for sharing DCT & Stay Safe as Always 🧡

I got to know this song by listening to a beautiful CD of DÈANTA decades ago. It's such a catchy tune that I have been listening to it again and again. Josh Cahill's rendition is a present to the listener, so thank you, DCT!
Beautiful!
WOW!! What an absolute brilliant rendition of a beautiful song! Josh you are top class and Sean, the close up camera work is so fitting and makes it come across perfectly and full of power. Thank you both for this gem!

What I don't get is everyone walking past and no-one stopping. Is this what our world has come to, brainwashed by Radio 1 / 2 and their personalities, such that people can't recognise a great performer or song?

T'was on one bright March morning I bid New Orleans adieu And I took the rode to Jackson town, me fortune to renew I cursed all foreign money, no credit could I gain Which filled me heart with longin' for the Lakes of Pontchartain I stepped on board of a railroad car beneath the morning sun And I rode the roads 'til evening and I laid me down again All strangers here, no friends to me 'til a dark girl towards me came And I fell in love with a Creole girl from the Lakes of Pontchartrain I said my pretty Creole girl, me money here's no good If it weren't for the alligators I'd sleep out in the wood You're welcome here kind stranger, our house it's very plain But we never turn a stranger out at the Lakes of Pontchartrain She took me to her mummy's house and she treated me quite well The hair upon her shoulders in jet black ringlets fell To try and paint her beauty I'm sure t'would be in vain So handsome was my Creole girl from the Lakes of Pontchartrain I asked her if she'd marry me, she'd said it could never be For she had got another and he was far at sea She said that she would wait for him and true she would remain 'Til he returned for his Creole girl from the Lakes of Pontchartrain So fair thee well me bonny o' girl I never see no more But I'll ne'er forget your kindness and the cottage by the shore And at each social gathering a flowin' glass I'll raise And drink a health to me Creole girl from the Lakes of Pontchartrain
