  • Imelda May was joined on stage at her concert at the 3Arena last night for an amazing performance of this song by the wonderful Finbar Furey. Unfortunately due my position between speakers and monitors the sound is a little off in places, and this video doesn't do justice to how brilliant witnessing this magical moment was! However I feel it is worthy of sharing for the whole world to share in what was a magical time for those in attendance.

    Another great American song from the 30’s. The Mills Brothers did a really beautiful job with it.

    This guy is just amazing,my late wife and I were just 15 years old when we first got together so young and innocent we stayed together until she died 10 years ago aged 65 and I miss her every second of every day,this song brings back all the memories of when we were both sweet 16. Thanks finbar.

    I met my husband when I was 15. Got engaged at 18, married at 20. We celebrated 52 years married last October. This is the song he has always sung to me and I've told the whole family I want this playing at my funeral. We're not getting any younger.

    I love Finbar Furey's voice, but the more I listen to Imelda May I think I'm falling a little in love with her voice too! Search their 2018 duet on The Late Late Show.

    @marylynch951 Před 5 lety +1

    Brilliant no one like Finbar Furery
    Some made a comment about him falling out with his brothers?
    This is a very complex thing
    And we don't know the reason
    Only assuming and reading What the papers say
    It s a well known fact That your family members are the worst type to betray you extremely jealous of you lie about your character
    Just because they are blood
    These is the worst type of betrayal
    And no none of us know why he had fallen out with his brothers?
    I certainly wouldn't judge him on this
