Yes, so many of us learned it from our fathers - As it should be! I remember my dad sang this to me when i was a young boy. I lost my oldest brother, his first born, when I was 12 years old, and I don't recall hearing my dad sing it since then... I am performing it solo this St. Patty's Day, and I'll ask someone to record it so I can send it to him - he is now 94. I hope I don't fuck it up...

Just stunning. My dad and I would sit on the deck in the summer overlooking the water and drink scotch and belt out this song when we were reminiscing about friends and family gone too soon. When he passed and his ashes were spread I sang it alone. I always tear up when I hear it but this rendition made me cry. Tears of grief, happiness at a memory, release from so much stress that the world is in right now from the pandemic, that America is in from D.C., from the hate that holds the country, tears of joy from the pure beauty of their voices. Thank you for this. Tears are needed sometimes, they cleanse the soul. Put everything into perspective. Start a new day with a clean slate.

I don't know if you'll want to know this or not, but the "meaning behind the song" in this video is not true. Frederick Weatherly had a son who died in 1910, years before the war, and his name wasn't Daniel. He starting writing the song months before his son suddenly died.

I myself am german and so didn't crew up with music like this but i, and probably every over person has to accept that the Irish culture is beautiful. This Song is just so full of love and, in my eyes at least what art should be. This is a great work and i am happy that thus could make me cry for persons i didn't know.

Me and my Homies cried to this, what a beautiful song

Oh, Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling From glen to glen, and down the mountain side. The summer's gone, and all the roses falling, It's you, it's you must go and I must bide. And take ye with my memory ever smiling Untrodden path, I'll tarry by your side And though you leave behind a silver lining It's you, it's you must go and I must bide. But come ye back when summer's in the meadow, Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow, It's I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow, Oh, Danny boy, oh Danny boy, I love you so! But when ye come, and all the flowers are dying, If I am dead, as dead I well may be, You'll come and find the place where I am lying, And kneel and say an Ave there for me. And I shall hear, though soft you tread above me, And all my grave will warmer, sweeter be, For you will bend and tell me that you love me, And I shall sleep in peace until you come to me.

In 2004 I went through a program called "blue to green" for people leaving the other US military branches switching to Army. I had already gone through Army basic training but in order to re-enter I had to go through this program. Occasionally we would have time to take a break and be silly (but in an organized fashion). One of the guys, I don't think I ever knew his name, got up and sang Danny Boy in front of all of the soldiers and cadre. It was very unusual to hear such an old traditional song in the middle of fast-paced modern military training. We all chuckled, but it was nice. I'll never forget it.

Incredible cover. This was one of my grandfather's favorite songs. My grandfather stormed the beaches of Normandy 6/6/1944, fighting across "Fortress Europe" through Belgium and Italy. Story goes they would sing when noise disciplined allowed, and this was one of the songs they would sing often. At the conclusion his funeral in 2002, after VFW gun salute and his casket was being lowered, a bagpiper from the VFW played "Danny Boy." He would have loved this cover.

Beautiful song sung beautifully. A father eternal love for his son.

This is an amazing Version. Each time I hear the song I have to cry, because the deep love that gets transmitted by the song touches my heart and soul so much. I'll get reminded that I'm loved for what I am and that's just enough - without any conditions or things I apparently have to do. Thanks and may you all have a nice day.

Oh my goodness I only meant to listen to the song while I did other things but when I started seeing the scenery and how stunning it is I couldn’t look away. Not to mention the three gorgeous guys that sang it. Way to go thank you so much for the video! 🌈💕💕🌈

My favorite song of all time and they did it justice

I buried my father 12 years ago, this song was one of this favorites. He had been a sailor from age 17 back in 1956 all the way up to when he reached the age of 50. He was a very reserved man but the only time i caught him singing was when Danny Boy was playing on the radio. Seeing tears in his eyes i knew it held a very special place in his heart, now i also tear up whenever i hear this very special song. We will see each other again ❤

This was the first song I ever heard (as far I can remember) and I cried because it was so beautiful. It always gets me even to this day. I am well into my 50ies.

This brings me to tears. It makes me think of my relationship with my father. I love my Dad and have always felt the love he has for me. The lyrics of this song are so touching and you guys did it justice. Thanks for sharing.
