REVIEWS
Average points: 4.69 (Reviews: 26)
******
Für mich der beste Pogues-Song! 1985 ein kleiner Hit, von den Swissburgern aber mal wieder nicht anerkannt. Dieses Lied besticht durch eine schöne, wehmütige Melodie und einen guten Text. Zudem ist noch Schunkelgarantie mit inbegriffen!
*****
Die Melodie ist wirklich gut, und mir gefällt der Song je länger desto besser. Aber eine 6 ist es dennoch noch nicht ganz für mich. Gut gesungen, schöne Instrumentierung, sicher einer ihrer besseren Songs.
*****
Schunkeln, ohne zu kotzen. Ein Guinness, eine schöne Frau mit braunen Augen und diesen Song - nicht schlecht.<br><br>Erster Minihit in den britischen Charts, # 72 im Frühling 1985.
****
4+. Trinkerballade eines Typen, der Liebeskummer hat und in der Kneipe von einem Kriegsveteran zugelabert wird. "Erschließt" sich erst, wenn die Nummer ein paarmal gehört hat.
*****
wunderschöner Irish Folk
*****
Ihr erster "Hit" in England. Ganz knappe 5, denn schon hier treten die typischen Elemente eines Pogues-Song auf...
****
wer diese nummer als beste pogues nummer abzeichnet kennt die pogues scheinbar nicht gut genug...
****
dito remember
******
Kleines Juwel der Pogues, dass ich erst 2001 kennen und lieben lernen durfte.
****
ich will sofort ein guinness
****
Guter, wiederum etwas wehmütiger Song....<br><br>4 +
*****
Heerlijk nummer van de Ierse Pogues.
***
▒ Het is net of deze plaat van de Ierse folkformatie "The Pogues", afkomstig van hun album "Rum, Sodomy And The Lash" (1985), niet op gang wil komen !!! Zal wel aan mij liggen ☺!!!
******
wunderschönes lied!
****
Ich finde es ganz okay.
****
Stück fürs gemütliche Abhängen und Feiern im Irish Pub, 4*…
*****
sehr schöner Walzer, nicht zu aufdringlich
*****
Sie beherrschen die langsamen und die schnellen Songs!<br><br>Gibt's auch im Rahmen der Reihe "Ein Jahr und seine 20 Songs (SZ Diskothek)".

Geht so.
******
Great
****
... gemütlich und gut ... 4+ ...
****
<br>Typischer The Pogues Song halt.
******
Aufgerundete sechs Punkte für diesen tollen irischen Song.
*****
Brown Eyes - ich mag sie auch. Die Pogues wirken auch hier, mit diesem eher langsamen Stück, sehr unterhaltsam. Ihr Sound entlockt mir oft ein genüssliches Schmunzeln. Das Ende der Geschichte bleibt offen:<br>"And a rovin, a rovin, a rovin I'll go<br>And a rovin, a rovin, a rovin I'll go<br>And a rovin, a rovin, a rovin I'll go<br>For a pair of brown eyes"<br>
****
goed
******
Eén van de topnummers van The Pogues.
