So many covers of this song. This one is by far the best. I love the way it sounds tonight.

Thank you for the background story! I notice live Dexys videos are so much more powerful. I figured it's because you weren't confined in the studio. I was 4 when "Come On Eileen" was released. I was obessed with it, I'd watch MTV all day so I could hear it as much as possible. I had a Dexys outfit. Scrappy overalls, belt, handkerchief, and black shoes without socks. It wasn't until just the other night that I looked up live videos. I'm enjoying all the songs I had never heard before :)

@davidizod Yeah straight up man. Whilst Too Rye Aye feature many a great track, and was the album that initiated my devotion for Dexy's, since then I have come to love some of their older stuff, especially the Young Soul Rebels stuff which features many of my favourites.

If anyone's still looking for it, This wonderful track is on the re-released version of the Don't Stand Me Down album. Can't wait for the new album in 2012. Go on Kev!

@davidizod I like Too-Rye-Ay, but you are not wrong. Some song are less effective than others. But Celtic Soul Brothers, Old, This last wild waltz, the Plan B/I'll Show you medley are great tracks and still rock

@mickbolton1 A great recollection. An Italian owner of the original album

@mickbolton1 Thanks, Mick for your reply. It's not on the album is it? I have always had an interest in all things Dexy's: I was good mates with Pete Williams at one time and still see him from time to time. I think 'Don't stand me Down' is a great album. On the 2003 tour (which Pete was on) I think the stuff from 'Rebels' and 'Don't Stand..' stood up much better than anything from the Too Rye Aye album that I think is massively over rated.

@davidizod It was recorded in Sep1984, during the making of the Don't Stand Me Down album. It's amazing to read all the great comments about this track - I never even thought it would be released as we just recorded it on the spur of the moment. I think it sounds better every time I hear it. You can hear all the individual players just improvising and enjoying a freedom they didn't often get in the studio! There's more about this track and the making of the album on my website.

@RJPaulista Não há de quê. Além de COME ON EILEEN e GENO, há mais coisas boas do Dexys. Veja que legal o comentário do Mick Bolton no início, ele participou da gravação da música.
