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

[kenadams]

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.

Such a sombre sad night tonight, we love you christy, a true irish treasure we'll adore forever.

[ChrisBmufc]

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.

[emlix]

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.

[gavinmackey]

One of the best Irish Male singers ever. We will miss you Christy we pray for you ❤

[danielgriffin]

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

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. 😢☘️🍀

[paddyconroy]

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 🇮🇪

[jalex]

Karma. Your next life will not have the pain of this one.
Cheers Christy. I regularly come back to watch this performance.

[seaniemc]

What a talent, what a showman. RIP Christy ❤

[TheDolmen]

Aslan are totally epic, Christy is probably one of the best frontmen ever, he understood his audience totally. A fantastic performer

[ianwarren]

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

[gerardmallon]

Christy you will be missed by so many. Just listened and shed a tear. One of Irelands greatest ever talents. Thank you for the joy you bring.

[ddelaney]

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

[JWilshere]

One of the best live performances ever. R.I.P Christy

[amillionairesblueprint]

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 ❤

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
