@irish6005 he didn’t pass away, he’s been in palitive care since Christmas, sadly on the way out. I was very close with his nephew who passed away a month ago sadly ❤️
This is beautiful .I remember He once said ..."theres places in Dublin that the celtic tiger didn't stop to take a piss" . He cared about his locality and stood up for them publically. God bless this true legend.
Not one person in the crowd with a phone in their hand, just all there enjoying the music, oh for it to be 1999 again, RIP Christy, a true Irish musical icon
Worked in the concert promotions business,only as local crew through alot of the 90's, the 90's was like a mini revival of the 60's music wise,concerts became good again,a few good gigging bands around,some of those top bands you take them out of the studio put them on a stage and they just wither and die,a good front man and band is a thing of beauty 🍀
Dublin and Ireland is crying tonight. I grew up listening to these and they were amazing. RIP Christy. You weren’t a bad man at all. Just a beautiful singer.
Listening to on repeat here. Sending it to friends near and far. The best version of a brilliant song. Imagine being the 'bloke in the white t-shirt' showing this to his grandkids. Magic.
This is the most incredible live performance I have ever seen in my life thus far. Christy is a generational talent. I would give my left paw to witness his stardom. What a phenom
First seen Aslan in a place called the Dance line club in Nth great Georges St in Dublin (early 80s), it was a basement of an old Georgian building, stank of beer and cigarettes, great performances and great times.
I sit here in London, 2/6/21 and agree with your statement. This song has shook me deep inside. I can identify with it at my old age of 69. I've seen every name you can think of. Hendrix,Zappa, Doors,Joplin, Dylan, bla bla bla, but tonight this song has absutely rocked my inner consciousness. I can relate it to my own life.
Why aren't these guys up there with the 1% of music royalty? They're fucking fantastic, Christy is a legend who's been to a lot of the dark places I've been. He has an absolutely unique stage presence and one of the best voices you'll ever hear.
@@mydigicraftscrafts8649 Yeah , but most (all?) of the successful bands for many years would have been into drugs ,it didnt stifle their commercial success ,however brief.
Working in an Irish radio industry for over 5 years now, I can tell you that Irish broadcasters must only or at least play 20 % of Irish music per hour by law (B.A.I) . Having said that an hour of Radio is filled up with 10 minutes of commercials, sometimes pushing the boundaries up to 12 in seasonal periods and prime time. Also the remainder of that hour is divided between DJs/ radio presenters talk, radio promotions/ Jingles / features/ competition etc...... so technically we're talking about maybe 30- 35 min of music if you're lucky per hour.. An interesting point to make is that "ALMOST" every commercial radio playlist has to have an equal rotation rule.. which means if you play a song or a band at a specific time.. the automation prevents that band/song to repeat itself within few days for it to give a chance to other similar artist in that Genre or category of music.. unless it is a charting song, which is of course by definition going to be promoted and played to death for weeks on 3- 4 times a day. There is a lot of bands out there fighting for radio play and Royalties... but with 20% per hour of Irish music (Meaning 2 songs most likely), and considering the amount of music,: modern or classics out there .... there is simply no money to be made by any Irish artist ... So to summarize, it is impossible, even for a legendary successful Artist, to make a substantial Royalty profit and make a descent living out of it. On an occasion "one of their classic song " that of which it was a hit, or is popular amongst listeners, might be played every now and then ... other than that.. unfortunately they are commercially doomed ..
@@maughanMaughan From the bottom of my heart! I swear no malice or harm is meant from me. If you think about it logically, Addiction practically put Aslan's career to a halt! Absolutely nothing got to do with the genius talent of Christy and the gang. As far as I am concerned they should be way bigger than U2, having much more talent and creativity than them. xx
From Dublin but living in Manchester over 20 years now playing Aslan all day, one of the best bands I've ever seen. My 15 year old son keeps asking me what song was that and so has downloaded Aslan on his Spotify even though I've been playing them for years he just said I really never paid attention until today because of asking what was it like at his concerts, I just said son just watch this and then Crazy World video.For the whole day he just asked questions about Alsan and it just brought back so much memories telling my son the whole history of Christy and Aslan. RIP, your now pain free. 😢☘️🍀
Sometimes it takes kids a while to pay proper attention to the music our parents play throughout our childhood. So happy my parents introduced me to new order, joy div, Pink Floyd, the streets, smiths, Motown, Joan baez, Dylan, Joni Mitchell, Neil young, the fall and countless others. Love you mam and dad ❤
It's just been reported. Christy Dignam has sadly passed away. Was extremely lucky to have met him and quick chat. His voice shook me the first time I heard him in either '85 or '86. This is a voice and talent that will be missed by every Irish person. Take it easy now Christy, you earned your rest. RIP
There are very few songs that give you goosebumps from start to finish. Christy and the song are one, he becomes the song. My thoughts and prayers go out to him and his family at this difficult time. What an amazing talent 🇮🇪
You used to have a smoke with my mother in Beaumont hospital you never let anything beat you. Such a great man and such beautiful representative of Irish people. Thank you for being a gentleman to us and especially my mother ❤
These are the hands of a tired man This is the old man's shroud These are the eyes of the blood crazed tiger Staring at the maddening crowd This is the face of a teenage mother This is the child she bears This is the soul of her broken lover Searching for the smiles they shared These are the feet of the punished pilgrim And in his book of punished love You see his eyes, you see no surprise Waiting for a lie that's true Everybody hits you with this feeling Nobody seems to understand Yeah you stop, you look You're searching for the meaning (Wasting your life away) These are the dreams of a sleeping father And in his long lost days He sees a child He sees his eyes Waiting for the price he's paid These are the tears of a fallen idol And in his smile of shattered love You see his eyes You see no surprise You just see lights then realise Everybody hits you with this feeling Nobody seems to understand Yeah you stop, you look You're searching for the meaning (Wasting your life away) Oh here with you There's no one here like you And no one moves like you Nobody touches like you Everybody hits you with this feeling Nobody seems to understand Yeah you stop, you look You're searching for the meaning Everybody hits you with this feeling Nobody seems to understand Yeah you stop, you look You're searching for the meaning Everybody hits you And everybody knocks you down You stop you look you're searching, you stop you look you're searching Everybody hits you And everybody knocks you down Everybody hits you And everybody knocks you down
The legend that is Christie has died about an hour ago, Ive seen so many of the bigger bands for want of better word but no one could match Christie gave me and my lot so many great nights out in Dublin
35 years old brought to tears at this performance and everything that Christy went through to be the man he was. A performer, a man in recovery and a very special gift to everyone who was graced with his presence. R.I.P ❤
What a voice one of our greatest Christy your Irish legend may u get the best bed in heaven I seen aslan so many times what a band my favourite look down on your Ireland xxx
Got to meet him bout 15 years ago at a gig at Hush nightclub at the time. Me and 2 of my friends knew every single word of the Vicar street album . Of course cause us 3 lunatics where giving it socks he loved it and took time after to talk with us and take pictures and all . Absolutely beautiful soul and great artist . R.I.P Christy
As I make this comment at 19.10 Irish time 13th of June 2023, Christy has just passed away from a long battle with cancer.. I was at this gig and so many Aslan concerts and he was the best frontman a band could of wished for, Gave me and my group of friends so many great nights out in Dublin.. Thanks for all the great memories Christy may you rest in peace my friend🙏💚☘
Descubri este maravilloso grupo hace cuatro años en un viaje a Dublín. Desde entonces no he dejado de escucharlos y disfrutarlos. Hoy me entero de la muerte de Christy, que pena! RIP genio
Oh man christy your the singer the main man but yet you show and let the crowd feel or know that it's there song... That's why you are so special... The impact you have on your audience not many people can do that
I echo all the previous comments-I had the good fortune to meet Christy after a gig in Clifden about four years ago-not knowing what to say, I truthfully told him that his cover of rock n roll suicide was my favourite song of his-he looked me in the eye (didn't know my name)and replied 'ya know mate, I honestly think that it was the only song that I completely nailed' ....clearly he 'nailed' dozens of tunes but it was a mark of his immense humility and self criticism.
Mesmorised by this, just perfect, timing, Vocals, audience participation, just wow.. Wish I was there. Simply a work of art. RIP Christy Dignam... You will live forever 💚
Days after Christy died, my friend Ciaran Mallon died suddenly in his sleep. He was 36, but touched the lives of so many people He was Belfast's Spider-Man, a trade unionist, a father, a friend and overall a great human being.
What a band,I only heard of aslan when I came over to dublin in 2003, everyone was raving about them,and nay wonder,got to see them live 1s amazing,rip christy fly high brother,godbless you ,dublins own,🇮🇪💚🏴
The best live band. Aslan/ Christy 💙🇮🇪💯 u have left a mark in the world. We love ya and miss you 💯💙🇮🇪 just a credit 2 us all. Rest in peace ✌ 🙏.

An emotional day to say the least. Loved this man! He had such stage presence and knew how to entertain. Will miss the live performances especially Vicar St, Iveagh Gdns and listening to his life stories. Thanks for the music and memories. Farewell Irish Legend for you now know Irish legends never die!!
May the gates of heaven ring with the sounds of angels playing this for you… rip buddy. Dublin loved you, the world loved you- blasting the tunes for you this weekend. You got us all through some mad times- thank you.
2022 still relevant to us from Dublin.. YUP THE CHRISTY, listening from Scotland,can't count the amount of Scots I've got listening to Made In Dublin .... Glasgow gig please 🙌🍀
Rest easy, my friend, and thank you. Take a bow, you gave everything you had, your music moulded a generation, you had no idea how fucking fantastic you.amd your band was....
This is one of the greatest performances of all time - the emotion, the voice, the music, the atmosphere...simply legendary. Thinking of you Christy and praying for a miracle xxx
Read Christy's autobiography last year (the best autobiography I've ever read) he went through so much and still was salt of the earth dubliner, a gent. RIP Christy, there will never be another voice like yours. Love this video, what stage presence and control he had over a audience 💙
What a brilliant singer Christy was !! was in dublin over from england and seen him live years ago in dublin will never forgot it!! thanks for a memorable night Christy may god bless you 🙏 you dublin legend 🇨🇮 🕯
When I moved back to Dublin in the 90’s having been gone for many years, my brother in law David brought me to see Aslan at the ‘noggin inn. I had never heard of them but was blown away by how good they were and by what a showman and brilliant singer Christy was! A fan for ever after that, and by the way, U2’s tribute to Aslan with their version of this song is also brilliant in a different way and has created a path for new fans around the world to discover Aslan’s music. RIP Christy!
I still listen to you every day pal I can't get you out of my head, you know a lot of nights I often ask you CHRISTY will yeah let me bleeding sleep tonight pal, I can't get your songs to knock off in my head at times it's not a bad thing unless I'm trying to have a kip. 😂😂❤❤ I watch you so much I'm also watching your audience they love you i was there too, your so good and pure night night pal
I was there right in front of him - massive part of my young life - you fought an amazing fight and with absolute dignity Christy. Sleep well my brother. ❤
I was fifteen working in the Royal Oak bar in Finglas, all the band drank there, so down to earth. We had Aslan watches, tshirts the lot-after EMI signed them up and they threw a party one day. One day my good friend and I were in Brussels Bar in Temple bar meeting my friends pen pal from Cork who was visiting Dublin. Aslan came on the radio and we were saying how we knew them and how they drank in our bar, Corky was thinking we were full of shit then Joe Jewel walks over all leathered up and like he just walked straight off a Depeche Mode album cover photo shoot, pats us on the back and buys us a round of drinks singing our praises. The good old days when life was simple. Thanks for the video.
It's absolutely heartbreaking to hear Christy say that he's dying and can't pay his mortgage, people think because he's an Irish celebrity, he most be loaded, he's a strong man, with a beautiful wife and family behind him, hopefully he'll pull through, he's being through so much, and we're all rooting for him 💙❤♥
You have not seen the last of them boys yet. Believe me, they are pure deadly Irishirish band. THEY ARE QUITE FAMOUS ACTUALLY. They helped me with the lockdown.
My 17 yr old son and his dad we're @ Vicar st 1999. And I first heard Aslan via Daniel singing Crazy world doing a crazy dance in the mirror. His dad Ian blasted Aslan on his car C D wen I visited them in Crumlin back then . I sadly lost them both in 2013/14. Tears come Every Time I hear Aslan
Thank you Aslan God Bless you for keeping them close to me via Your music . I'cant get over how many people never heard of Aslan or Christy here in the UK. Till they meet me . Aslan get me through and the hope to see them like Ian and Dan did in 1999. Thank you Aslan so so much
Met an Irish girl when I was working in Channel Islands Jersey Linda her name was ... she put me onto aslan Made in dublin album. It has been one of my all time faves since 2001 , superb album and IMHO easily there best offering. ❤
RIP to one of Ireland's most iconic and adored artists. Thanks for all of the cracking tunes. ❤️💯
Well said brother
A true Irish legend 💚
💯💯 rest in peace Christy
❤
Love and respect from Finglas South, Rathvilly❤❤
Such a sombre sad night tonight, we love you christy, a true irish treasure we'll adore forever.

One of the best live performances ever. R.I.P Christy
These are the hands of a tired man
This is the old man's shroud
These are the eyes of the blood crazed tiger
Staring at the maddening crowd
This is the face of a teenage mother
This is the child she bears
This is the soul of her broken lover
Searching for the smiles they shared
These are the feet of the punished pilgrim
And in his book of punished love
You see his eyes, you see no surprise
Waiting for a lie that's true
Everybody hits you with this feeling
Nobody seems to understand
Yeah you stop, you look
You're searching for the meaning
(Wasting your life away)
These are the dreams of a sleeping father
And in his long lost days
He sees a child
He sees his eyes
Waiting for the price he's paid
These are the tears of a fallen idol
And in his smile of shattered love
You see his eyes
You see no surprise
You just see lights then realise
Everybody hits you with this feeling
Nobody seems to understand
Yeah you stop, you look
You're searching for the meaning
(Wasting your life away)
Oh here with you
There's no one here like you
And no one moves like you
Nobody touches like you
Everybody hits you with this feeling
Nobody seems to understand
Yeah you stop, you look
You're searching for the meaning
Everybody hits you with this feeling
Nobody seems to understand
Yeah you stop, you look
You're searching for the meaning
Everybody hits you
And everybody knocks you down
You stop you look you're searching, you stop you look you're searching
Everybody hits you
And everybody knocks you down
Everybody hits you
And everybody knocks you down
Thank you.
An Irish icon. It doesn't matter what age you are what age this song is, it hits you the same way. Thank you Christy for all them wonderful nights
Sang like an angel, Battled like a Hero. Met Christy at harrys bar many years ago, a gentleman and an icon RIP Christy.
One of those live performances you can always come back to make you feel something without fail. RIP Christy

Agreed. Amazing
A sad loss for his family and friends and but heaven is gaining a true showman and angle RIP Christy
He is the best voice of the century for me! Though I'm not familiar with Irish bands/music. I'm Russian.
Check out, luke Kelly song for Ireland. Also christy Moore bee's wing live. To of the best singers to come from Ireland.

R.I.P National treasure who's music will never be forgotten.
RIP Christy. A legend. Thanks for the memories. The live in Dublin album is a gem. Your music lives on
This is one of the greatest performances of all time - the emotion, the voice, the music, the atmosphere...simply legendary. Thinking of you Christy and praying for a miracle xxx
Yes Christy, we will miss you, RIP Christy, one of Ireland's finest in heart and soul. Singer-songwriter, you had it all.
R.I.P Christy 😢 One of the most amazing & inspiring people in my life. Thanks so much ❤️❤️❤️
Read Christy's autobiography last year (the best autobiography I've ever read) he went through so much and still was salt of the earth dubliner, a gent. RIP Christy, there will never be another voice like yours. Love this video, what stage presence and control he had over a audience 💙
Amazing artist indeed. . Rip Christy
What a brilliant singer Christy was !! was in dublin over from england and seen him live years ago in dublin will never forgot it!! thanks for a memorable night Christy may god bless you 🙏 you dublin legend 🇨🇮 🕯
Wonderful! the audience is central to Christy's sound system and what superb team mates! Rest in Power Christy. 💚
How did this man not make it big 😢
When I moved back to Dublin in the 90’s having been gone for many years, my brother in law David brought me to see Aslan at the ‘noggin inn. I had never heard of them but was blown away by how good they were and by what a showman and brilliant singer Christy was! A fan for ever after that, and by the way, U2’s tribute to Aslan with their version of this song is also brilliant in a different way and has created a path for new fans around the world to discover Aslan’s music. RIP Christy!
RIP Christy, your music and voice got me through some of the roughest times in life. One of the best singers to come out of ireland
What a song... as good as anything U2 ever did. RIP Christy Dignam 🙏
Aslan back then could never be outdone, absolutely astonishing
I still listen to you every day pal I can't get you out of my head, you know a lot of nights I often ask you CHRISTY will yeah let me bleeding sleep tonight pal, I can't get your songs to knock off in my head at times it's not a bad thing unless I'm trying to have a kip. 😂😂❤❤ I watch you so much I'm also watching your audience they love you i was there too, your so good and pure night night pal
What a legend always will be remembered 💙 💯
I was there right in front of him - massive part of my young life - you fought an amazing fight and with absolute dignity Christy. Sleep well my brother. ❤
Rest in peace Christy - you were and still are a legend. I was honoured to be your support DJ in Limerick.
Rip Christy ❤, a legend of an Irish man 😢
Exceptional. Singing live. Brilliant. God Rest Him. Condolences to his family and friends.
Rip man this is one of the best live performances i have seen he will be missed
Happy paddy's day peeps these song's always bring me back when Dublin was magic
Always loved, never forgotten . Ireland weeps as you go on your journey. Thank you for the memories and the music.
I was fifteen working in the Royal Oak bar in Finglas, all the band drank there, so down to earth. We had Aslan watches, tshirts the lot-after EMI signed them up and they threw a party one day.
One day my good friend and I were in Brussels Bar in Temple bar meeting my friends pen pal from Cork who was visiting Dublin. Aslan came on the radio and we were saying how we knew them and how they drank in our bar, Corky was thinking we were full of shit then Joe Jewel walks over all leathered up and like he just walked straight off a Depeche Mode album cover photo shoot, pats us on the back and buys us a round of drinks singing our praises.
The good old days when life was simple.
Thanks for the video.
Wow
Nice connection
That's the Irish
Down to earth
Rock on lads
Great story. I know the Royal Oak so well , I'm a North Dub and proud💙 🇮🇪
A pen pal from Cork! That is megatastically phenomenal...
Not a camera phone in sight. Just a crowd living for the moment. The way it should be.
No such thing in 1999
R.I.P CHRISTY DIGNAM...BEST ROCK AND ROLL 👨🎤 🎤 🎶 🎼 👨🎤
It's absolutely heartbreaking to hear Christy say that he's dying and can't pay his mortgage, people think because he's an Irish celebrity, he most be loaded, he's a strong man, with a beautiful wife and family behind him, hopefully he'll pull through, he's being through so much, and we're all rooting for him 💙❤♥
I'll say a prayer
That means a lot
In Ireland
Loves you christy
Rock on
His honestly is what makes him. I have such admiration for his outlook on life! Can't keep a good man down so I know hel be ok!
how’s he doing now ?
@@wesleyvickers3490

My 17 yr old son and his dad we're @ Vicar st 1999. And I first heard Aslan via Daniel singing Crazy world doing a crazy dance in the mirror. His dad Ian blasted Aslan on his car C D wen I visited them in Crumlin back then . I sadly lost them both in 2013/14. Tears come Every Time I hear Aslan
Thank you Aslan God Bless you for keeping them close to me via Your music . I'cant get over how many people never heard of Aslan or Christy here in the UK. Till they meet me . Aslan get me through and the hope to see them like Ian and Dan did in 1999. Thank you Aslan so so much
Utter brilliance we all thinking of you Christy xxxxx
Pure and utter class, no phones to be seen just people enjoying a concert the way it should be
The first thing I thought when I seen the crowd...not a phone in site ;))
Ye it used to be lighters 😂😂👍
Well this was from 1999, so that's why there no phones!!
I hate being at concerts when all people do is watch it through the phone!!
