Lyrics:
Tis' the last rose of summer left blooming alone
All her lovely companions are faded and gone
No flower of her kindred, no rosebud is nigh
To reflect back her blushes, or give sigh for sigh
So soon may I follow, when friendships decay
And from love's shining circle the gems drop away
When true hearts lie wither'd and fond ones are gone
Oh, who would inhabit this bleak world alone?
If your young or just don't understand. Sadly One Day we'll all feel these words in your heart. Its truly & honestly beyond me how anyone can sing this live when your heart is broken! Our Loved Ones are never gone. They hear our voices & wait for us to join them one day.
I sang "Last Rose" at my dad's wake. I'm not a trained singer, and this performance (on CD, with all the lyrics) guided me. Very healing!
To this day I don't know how John got through this song. He was singing and crying. I'm sure Hope and Peter heard him singing their song.
John is a throw back to the old Celtic singers. Listen how he turned the octave at the end. Magnificent.
so true. so, so true
Condolences and thank you for sharing your magnificent voice while you grieve. Had the pleasure of hearing you in concert when you were in Halifax, NS. I treasure that experience.
This is heart wrenching. The pain that he is feeling he puts into the song so you are hearing his soul. Hard to watch and listen and not start dropping those tears yourself. Always sings from the heart, our John. Lovely tribute to his Mom and Dad.
Me dad always said after we lost our mum “Don’t ever be affront cry for all your doing is watering the roots of their memories so they can grow “
@@michaeldavin3059 I love that so much. 🙂❤
I cannot do without you my dear! May The Lord take care of you!Slan!☘️💚🇮🇪🙏
Emotion is the leaf of reality that I often sit on in the Autumn of my life
I choked up from his first note. This had to difficult but so fulfilling to see thing this for his loving parents
Mr. John Mc.Dermott: Thank you. Beautifull voice.
I sang this in the Hanwell children's choir Ealing in the 70s I'm 54yrs now . How beautiful his voice and how touching, god bless
I have come a long way to this point and right from the very beginning you my fans have been solidly behind me
It’s been a landslide but we always pull through together,your love and support are amazing.
Believe in your self you can always achieve your dreams I have an upcoming project and your support and love is the drive
I love love love you all ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
It never ceases to amaze me how John can sing through his own sorrow, such a beautiful, emotional song. I thank you for this gift of music to help heal others.
Outstanding.
Had this song played at my dad's funeral of April gone by 2022 my dad used to play the harmonica so a neighbour of his childhood days played the harmonica at his funeral.
Love John McDermott when he came to my city, he was out at the front. He was shaking hands with us and welcoming us to his show.
He is such a down to earth guy, when I saw him in Rochester NY he was greeting the fans at the door. He shook my hand and I got a picture with him, one of the nicest guys I've ever met.
I always loved his voice. He sings with so much feeling. Love him.
One of my favorites. As I grow older (72) I can really relate to these words.
Another beautiful song of Ireland which is so meaningful and unforgettable. Thank you for uploading and sharing with us.
How did you know this was my Daddy's song.May yours R.I.P.John

imagine disliking this. apart from that, imagine being the juicer and only discovring this gem now.
no further comment since i am highly regarded. :)
This is one of the songs that is my mother`s favourite. She passed away late last month at the age of 82. She was survived by her 7 Chinese children and 11 grandchildren. She was a devoted Christian and we are blessed with her FAITH in GOD and many have become followers. We are very delighted that we have been chosen by GOD. Rest In Peace mom. May God`s LOVE shine on every body, for there is ONLY ONE GOD and His Son Jesus Christ. ONLY ONE church that is open to ALL PEOPLE on earth with open arms through its many doors and windows. Please include my mom YUNG in your prayer. With love from a Chinese family who go to the Evangelical Church in Kowloon City HONG KONG. GOD bless you
GOD BLESS YOUR MOTHER, AND GOD BLESS YOU ALSO JOHN.
I am a Chinese and I am a Christian too. I have 4 boys and I love Irish music. I can sing very well and my voice is almost like the celtic woman's . I will record this song. It is one of my favorite songs. I also love O Danny Boy. I have recorded that song last year. May your mother rest in peace and God bless your family.
Bless you in the name of Buddha and all the Bodhisattvas. Taoism, Confucious and Buddhism are the true religions of China.

Sorry for your loss..I lost Norma ( momma) 27 years ago..and I miss her daily...she died in Christ...we'll meet again...Much love to you..God keep you
Sublimely beautiful and moving, and also courageous of John to stand on a stage and sing with such love and deep feeling about his dear mother's passing. The accompaniment is also wonderful.
So handsam,elegannter Sänger,so ein Lied singen💘ein glück,d.e.nicht Live ist, sonst werde ich💔💤💫🥰
What a beautiful song and a superb voice. This made me tearful as l thought of my parents. Thank you for sharing this video. 🙋🙋🙋🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
I normally listen to the classical version of the song. But this is just so extraordinary... Deep heartfelt indeed. Bravo!
To all the last roses which have to either alone...
Lovely song, sung with feeling, thankyou John McDermott ❤️🌹🌟👏👏👏👏👏 xxxx
absolutely brilliant. What an unbelievable artist.
This exquisite melody was incorporated into von Flotow's opera "Martha" and is usually sung in Italian as "Sul cespite tremante' -on the quivering bush and is a kind of musical motif which is picked up and sung by the chorus.There was a recent movie called "Three Billboards Outside......Missouri" where, sung by soprano Renee Fleming, this was part of the soundtrack.
You sir, have my deepest respect! Bless you.
Thank you John. My favourite song. I love your voice.
Heart wrenching & so bravely performed.
This overwhelming masterpiece is a treasure for us earthlings
Thanks, John-- such lovely rendition!
I sang this last Sunday at a small public event as an amateur. Warmest wishes from Melbourne
How did he get through that...I couldn't get through just listening to it. If this doesn't result in a tear, or two...better check yourself for a pulse.
Beautiful Song
I couldn't sing it without bawling my eyes out.

'Tis the last rose of summer,
Left blooming alone;
All her lovely companions are faded and gone;
No flow'r of her kindred,
No rosebud is nigh
To reflect back her blushes,
Or give sigh for sigh.
I'll not leave thee, thou lone one,
To pine on the stem;
since the lovely are sleeping,
Go, sleep thou with them;
Thus kindly I scatter
Thy leaves o'er the bed
Where thy mates of the garden
Lie senseless and dead.
So soon may I follow,
When friendships decay,
And from love's shining circle
The gems drop away!
When true hearts lie wither'd,
And fond ones are flown,
Oh! who would inhabit
This bleak world alone?

LOVED IT BEAUTIFUL;...
Beautiful singer, beautiful man ....
great singer ! Great song!!
This recording always gets me. Yes, it's beautiful, but John also "gets" the song in a way that most people just don't. My Grandma Deese lived to almost 103. She outlived everyone in her family, my Grandpa, and two of their children. SHE was the Last Rose of Summer in the same way that John's Mother was.
It is truly awful to be "The Last Rose of Summer".

If memory serves me right...I think he stood in for Harry Belafonte who was to give concerts with Nana Mouskouri and because of illness had to pull out.......many years ago....
better than opera singer... so touching
better than an opera singer? who did you have in mind who has sung this? opera singers dont have to scream. they can sing soft and intimate too.

Its beautiful to listen too. I find his facial contortions a bit comical.
You try singing it ,see how you look

I m withering alone, my dear love is waiting on the other side.
I didn't notice any facial contortions....
I prefer the Judas Priest rendition.
