Johnny I Hardly Knew Ya by Finn Eces published on 2021-06-30T22:57:57Z https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VbFu_0jlqvY A song I've grown up with but always thought deserved a softer approach than the usual raucous 'pub song' it is usually portrayed as. Another collaboration with my friend the amazing @Philleann with the very talented Sue McBride whose vocal performance gives the song the tragic, haunting, melancholy air I was aiming for. Vocal - Sue McBride. https://suemcbridemusic.com/music/ Accordion, Whistle & Flute - Philleann https://philleann.com/ Vocal, Mandolin, Banjo & Guitar - Finn Eces Produced by Finn Eces Image http://deviantart.com "Johnny I Hardly Knew Ye" also known as "Johnny I Hardly Knew Ya", is a popular traditional song, sung to the same tune as "When Johnny Comes Marching Home".

You had me from the get-go because I knew this tune from childhood as "When Johnny Comes Marching Home". Your rendition makes me feel so nostalgic. 2021-07-23T19:37:40Z Comment by Pascal Basso Very roots :) 2021-07-22T17:09:52Z Comment by Garddwr Porffor This is a great interpretation of the old song. We tend to forget what old songs that we have known since childhood mean. This made me think again. Beautiful performances all round! 2021-07-22T14:27:37Z Comment by markjbennett I totally agree, this is the perfect approach for this beautiful song, filling it with pathos. Great arrangement and wonderful voices. Thanks to Sue, Philleann and yourself Finn. 2021-07-22T10:46:38Z Comment by Dairv An excellent collaboration, guys. 2021-07-22T10:34:20Z Comment by Mike Krath Beautiful melody and voice. 2021-07-22T09:30:14Z Comment by Frank DANA Again !
