Coming from Germany, it amazes me how a bunch of middle-aged mates can sing along the lyrics of a pop song that was written for the generation of their children, while literally turning into this generation towards the end when they shed themselves of any notion of age and simply celebrate the raw beauty of life. You Irish are lucky.

My mom Dr Mary and Ger Foley we will NEVER EVER forget you!

RIP ger foley. Didn’t know the fella but looking at his crowd I’m sure he was a proper gent. Fly high son

The greatest song in human history

This would want to make you go out to war. That mans passion is unreal
