I cry every time I watch this man singing his heart out as the world collapses. He represents everything that Ireland once was, he is the embodiment of an entire way of life that is disappearing in front of our eyes. Peace be with you, Mick. You are everything I wish the world would return to--freedom, happiness, beauty, love and joy. Thank you for this beautiful video.

Its saddens me deeply that no matter how much i sing this great song ; I will never sing it with as much passion and talent as this fella right here. Big booming voice. Great stuff!

This makes me think of my mum who passed away 25 years ago. She was irish but moved to Scotland when she was 16 . I feel so proud to be half irish and scottish. Proper Celtic through and through. This man has an amazing voice .

Even the seagulls sound awesome!

A song from isolation sang during isolation. Very poignant. Brilliant.

Omg wat a voice I wood pay to go listen to u mick ....just unbelievable

Outstanding mick this song is amazing what a voice 💚

I love the sounds of Dublin in the background ❤️ and this mans amazing voice

Mick, that's the most emotional version of this song I think I've ever heard God bless ya, up the Dubs HH TAL 🍀✊🙏

Discovered this during lockdown and as soon as I could see my Granda again I got him and played it for him on TV blaring while we were having a drink. Never knew then I would have been playing this at his funeral 10 months later. Glad we shared the moment together and he agreed this was the greatest version of this song he had ever heard. Listening to it now makes me choke up but this version was as fucking brilliant as he was to me. Out standing

Get this man a stage..and quick! Incredible voice...

Ive watched this 4 times today and its not 10am. Watched it a few times yesterday. For me its such a powerful thing, not just the song but the whole process. Lockdown shouldnt stop talent being shared so walk it out and belt it out at the same time. Defiance while singing about a prison. The irony of that and we all serving this sentence

I wish we could see more of these video s n songs walking down our streets belting out the greatest irish ballads . Well done mick

Very rare for a cover to hit like the original. Un-fucking-believable. What a cover, what a voice. Transported me right back to a lock in singsong.

Goosebumps. What a voice.

I'm practically speechless! I even loved the walking along while singing it! I remember Glen Hansard doing it with a lot of different artists at the Royal Albert Hall and it was fantastic but THIS is the bomb! F##king amazing!!!

Haven’t lived in Ireland for year. But this this just makes me want to fly home and find a good pub with a warm fire and this lad paying. Never take our little country for granted

That's what you call singing with everything you got! a true good irish singer for you, love his version of this song 🇮🇪

Mick. I've been going into work every day since lockdown. Nothing special about it but the city centre in Manchester has been desolate at times. I was hoping some legend at the council would seize the opportunity and blast some music out from the rooftops to help lift moral. I originally wanted something like Al Green, Jackie Wilson or Stevie Wonder. but after hearing this. I've changed my mind. You can tell your Vocals were on form and you hit the sweet spot. Haunting and poignant. Maestro!

Fantastic performance give this man the respect he deserves makes me proud to be Irish 🍀🇮🇪

This is epic! Best version of this song I've ever heard!

This video beats any video that you will ever see on mtv . The power in mick is to be bottled. Amazing. Up d dubs 👍👍👍👍
