Harry Connick Jr sings Danny Boy in 'Memphis Belle'

Easily the best rendition of Danny Boy I've ever heard which was sadly never recorded in full. Also included is the following scene that to this day still gives me the chills whenever I see it.

Damned shame this version wasn't recorded by HC, Jr on any of his albums. BEST. VERSION.EVER.

Man when he tucks that cig behind his ear...
And then when the drums kick in and he gives a grin...
Fantastic!

[lstegra]

Love this rendition Harry did! Every time I watch Memphis belle I would hit rewind just to hear this song over and over again

[windu]

This is always a good movie. It pays tribute to all those brave men that left this earth to fight for the freedom of all and of those to come after them.

[fuzexi]

Yep, best version of Danny Boy I've ever heard too!

[sgtpepper]

I wish they put this on the soundtrack.

If you're in the air force and you haven't seen this movie yet consider it heritage and buy this. Right now. I might have technically been the army Air corps but this is air force heritage right here. This movie is gold and you need to watch it. Now.

Couldn't agree more: its the best rendition of Danny Boy I ever heard, too. And thank you for explaining that it was never recorded in full. I've been searching for it for years.

[erossphone]

What a treat for the cast and everyone on set!

[SurfingBullDog]

I know! This rendition is so awesome I wish he would have recorded a studio version of it!

[batobantelis]

Why did not they finished this song? Such a cruelty to the audience! LOL!
This is a very impressive rendition!
Every time I imagine this song, this is the picture I always see... Harry Connick sings Danny Boy!..
His voice is a beautiful version of Frank Sinatra's type ...

[fastdadws]

Harry Connick Jr is the handsomest Irish Jew since Jesus CHRIST Himself walked the planet. Amen.

[workdayla]

I find myself coming back to this video time and time again... I love this scene

[musicalmeg]

The recording that Harry did do of this song is the absolute most heart-breakingly beautiful thing I've ever heard!

[sarahbailey]

I wish he would at least record it now. I thought I was going to marry him when this movie came out, I bought all of his albums...I was 12. He's the sweetest thing to ever come out of Louisiana other than beignets. That voice <3

[tourkosfuktme]

its a shame that they never have recorded it, me and my son have to rewind and watch again again, but why someone else recorded same way?

[marcelisabeth]

Superb rendition of a beautiful song....best i have ever heard

[ThePurpleTreat]

When I hear this song all my worries are gone

[Steeyuv]

I’d heard the name Connick before, but this was the moment when I realised ‘ah, THAT’S what the fuss is about!’. Still gives me the tingles.

[BeginnerBirder]

Harry Connick Jr has a full recording on his album "Come by Me"...it's a little slower, but it's the same singer, and it's incredible.
