    When I saw this song in Peaky Blinders, I knew it. Took me a while to remember my mum playing the Irish Rovers as a kid. Your version is the most beautiful I've ever heard. Thank you.

    Let me put the lyrics for you guys
    In a neat little town they call Belfast
    Apprentice to a trade I was bound
    And many's an hour's sweet happiness
    Have I spent in this neat little town.
    A sad misfortune came over me
    Which caused me to stray from the land
    Far away from my friends and relations
    Betrayed by the black velvet band.
    Her eyes they shone like diamonds
    I thought her the queen of the land
    And her hair hung over her shoulders
    Tied up with a black velvet band.
    I took a stroll down Broadway
    Meaning not long for to stay
    When who should I meet but this pretty fair maid
    Came a traipsing along the highway
    She was both fair and handsome
    Her neck it was just like a swans'
    And her hair is hung over her shoulder
    Tied up with a black velvet band.
    Her eyes they shone like diamonds
    I thought her the queen of the land
    And her hair hung over her shoulders
    Tied up with a black velvet band.
    I took a stroll with this pretty fair maid
    And the gentleman passing us by
    Well I knew she meant the doing of him
    By the look in her roguish black eye
    A gold watch she took from his pocket
    And placed it right into my hand
    And the very first thing I said was
    Bad 'cess to the black velvet band.
    Her eyes they shone like diamonds
    I thought her the queen of the land
    And her hair hung over her shoulders
    Tied up with a black velvet band.
    Before the judge and the jury
    Next morning I had to appear
    And the judge he said to me 'Young man
    Your case is proven clear'
    We'll give you seven years penal servitude
    To be spent far away from the land
    Far away from your friends and companions
    Betrayed by the black velvet band.
    Her eyes they shone like diamonds
    I thought her the queen of the land
    And her hair hung over her shoulders
    Tied up with a black velvet band.

    when my grandad who was a salior with the merchant marines and later a fisherman in Boston (he came from Wexford around 1929) and long story short he met my oma who didn't speak a lick of english (she was German/ Swedesh) but they fell in love nonetheless and the way he taught her english was singing songs like this and Wild Mountain Thyme, Wild Rover, Whiskey in the Jar Finniegans Wake and of course songs he heard saling like leave her johnny and Haul away joe so when they moved to San Pedro in 1960 they had both my uncles and aunt then in 68 my dad and when i was born in 93 i grew up with these songs Great job can you cover Shoals of Herring ?

    That's a classic, so it is well done. I just came across your channel. How about covering the town I loved so well or Molly Malone? There are just so many great Irish songs. I just spent over two months going back home to visit my family and heard the black velvet band sung in so many pubs. I really enjoyed your cover cheers.

    I'm really happy that you interpreted such a great song. But still, I think your voice is way too high for it. Maybe you should try it one key lower.
    Unfortunately, it really doesn't sound good like that, as sorry as I am. But still, good song choice!
