Who can guess what the last song on the album is going to be?

My Roomates came and heard what I was listening to and started clapping their hands and stomping their feet You've definitely earned their seal of approval.

Here's the lyrics in case anyone wants them:
As I was a goin' over the far famed Kerry mountains
I met with captain Farrell and his money he was counting
I first produced my pistol and I then produced my rapier
Saying "Stand and deliver" for he were a bold deceiver
Mush-a ring dumb-a do dumb-a da
Whack fall the daddy-o, whack fall the daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar
I counted out his money and it made a pretty penny
I put it in me pocket and I took it home to Jenny
She sighed and she swore that she never would deceive me
But the devil take the women for they never can be easy
Mush-a ring dumb-a do dumb-a da
Whack fall the daddy-o, whack fall the daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar
I went unto my chamber, all for to take a slumber
I dreamt of gold and jewels and for sure it was no wonder
But Jenny drew me charges and she filled them up with water
Then sent for captain Farrell to be ready for the slaughter
Mush-a ring dumb-a do dumb-a da
Whack fall the daddy-o, whack fall the daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar
'Twas early in the morning, just before I rose to travel
Up comes a band of footmen and likewise captain Farrell
I first produced me pistol for she'd stolen away me rapier
But I couldn't shoot the water, so a prisoner I was taken
Mush-a ring dumb-a do dumb-a da
Whack fall the daddy-o, whack fall the daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar
Now there's some take delight in the carriages a rollin'
And others take delight in the hurling and the bowling
But I take delight in the juice of the barley
And courting pretty fair maids in the morning bright and early
Mush-a ring dumb-a do dumb-a da
Whack fall the daddy-o, whack fall the daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar
If anyone can aid me 'tis my brother in the army
If I can find his station in Cork or in Killarney
And if he'll go with me, we'll go rovin' in Kilkenney
And I'm sure he'll treat me better than me own me sportin' Jenny
Mush-a ring dumb-a do dumb-a da
Whack fall the daddy-o, whack fall the daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar
Mush-a ring dumb-a do dumb-a da
Whack fall the daddy-o, whack fall the daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar

LYRICS!
As I was a goin' over the far famed Kerry mountains
I met with captain Farrell and his money he was counting
I first produced my pistol and I then produced my rapier
Saying "Stand and deliver" for he were a bold deceiver
Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da
Whack for my daddy-o.
Whack for my daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar
I counted out his money and it made a pretty penny
I put it in me pocket and I took it home to Jenny
She sighed and she swore that she never would deceive me
But the devil take the women for they never can be easy
Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da
Whack for my daddy-o.
Whack for my daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar
I went up to my chamber, all for to take a slumber
I dreamt of gold and jewels and for sure 't was no wonder
But Jenny drew me charges and she filled them up with water
Then sent for captain Farrell to be ready for the slaughter
Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da
Whack for my daddy-o.
Whack for my daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar
'Twas was early in the morning, just before I rose to travel
Up comes a band of footmen and likewise captain Farrell
I first produced me pistol for she stole away me rapier
I couldn't shoot the water, so a prisoner I was taken
Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da
Whack for my daddy-o.
Whack for my daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar
Now there's some take delight in the carriages a-rollin'
And others take delight in the hurling and the bowling
But I take delight in the juice of the barley
And courting pretty fair maids in the morning bright and early
Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da
Whack for my daddy-o.
Whack for my daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar
If anyone can aid me 't is my brother in the army
If I can find his station in Cork or in Killarney
And if he'll go with me, we'll go rovin' through Killkenny
And I'm sure he'll treat me better than my own a-sporting Jenny
Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da
Whack for my daddy-o.
Whack for my daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar

I love how talented you are. The way you change your vocals and the fact that you play damn near every instrument is truly amazing. Please keep it up ❤️

I grew up with the familiar sound of The Dubliners, and none of the other versions ever seemed right to me - this, however, is a wonderful rendition, and I wish you all the best.
Love from Denmark!

I'd really like to hear you do The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald by Gordon Lightfoot. I think it would be a good fit for your vocal range and sound
dkilgu
I really really hope "Barrels of Whisky" is the next song after this.
JamesJdog
One of my all time favorite songs, though I'll be honest all of these Irish Songs and Shanties are some of my all time favs. Can't wait to hear it!
koyotestudios
A good song mixed with Colm McGuinness can it get any better than that?
lukesutterfield
This album is going to be so incredibly handsome
floundericiouswa
This song just reminds me of being back in Balintober. Living in the little town and excavating the castle for four summers. I miss it and green hills.

Really pumped for this one of my all time favorite Irish tunes!!
grahamthomas
I'm mostly familiar with the Metallica version of this song so this was very VERY different. And also completely awesome!
TheEternalGoth
I've listened to Thin Lizzy's 'Whiskey in the Jar' so many times, I clicked so fast as soon as I saw this! This is such a beautiful and joyful version!
martap
Have sung this song many times (so many I've lost count). Can't wait for your version!
parkerbrown-nesbit
I love Colm's Irish versions of songs. I love all his music but I've always had a love for Irish folk music. Great job Colm
chaseyoung
Yes one of my top favorite Irish songs. Great job with colms voice and top marks on the different instruments. Love how you can see how much colm puts into each song especially his facial expressions.
