stewie 3,387 Posted October 29, 2011 Report Share Posted October 29, 2011 drunk waster or musical genius??? i think he is a legend and such a shame to see him how he is now 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SNAP SHOT 194 Posted October 29, 2011 Report Share Posted October 29, 2011 i'd describe him as a a talented person who has something stronger in him than his love for music, And thats the demon alcoholic...!!! He comes across now as a bumbling person, but thats just years of abuse...!!!! look at ozzy osborne... and what abuse of substance has done to him... Shane's lyrics are haunting to the soul and have the ability to make you think of what he sings about in most of his songs... a rare talent.... Snap. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TAXI DRIVER 549 Posted October 29, 2011 Report Share Posted October 29, 2011 Pure musical genius,but a hopeless alcoholic.Can anyone put up the Pogues and the Dubliners singing the Irish Rover? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Carlowhunter 27 Posted October 29, 2011 Report Share Posted October 29, 2011 (edited) The man is a poet and a master song writer ! Sadly the drink and the drugs have worn him down badly ! I first saw him with the Pogues in the S.F.X in Dublin in 1987 and have been a big fan since ! Classic songs and classic music ! Fairy Tale of New York is the best christmas song ever !
