This song is awesome! | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song The Boys Are Back In Town performed by Thin Lizzy I've loved this song since I first heard it, and now, all my friends totally agree with me! Even though they repeat the same thing over and over again, it's still pretty cool!I've heard soo many rappers try to perform this song, but they sound so bad, I usually have to cover my ears!(ha ha!) I know that Thin Lizzy sounds sooo much better! Phil Lynnot owns(owned) | Reviewer: HighOnMusic ------ About the song The Boys Are Back In Town performed by Thin Lizzy This song is amazing, and I agree that it really makes you feel like you were there with them. Phil Lynnot was a genious. Even though this song is really great, I think my favourite Thin Lizzy song is Roisin dubh (Black Rose), that song is so poetic and beautiful. Blackwolfe | Reviewer: blackwolfe ------ About the song Whiskey In The Jar performed by Thin Lizzy This is a great Irish traditional song. However Thin Lizzy's version is not correct.

Hey nuts!!! | Reviewer: III ------ About the song The Boys Are Back In Town performed by Thin Lizzy ok.... -let´s stop to piss off... I agree that rap is great; I know rap and I do like some songs off good rappers; but thin lizzy is something special. It´s very great! some friends ( many o´them live next door )got boared about the expression " boys ", trying to say it sounds bad, but I dont agree, cuz I got my point of view: you got to know the context of the SONG joined together with the LYRICS... it may sounds some autobiographic stuff, but truly, he's just talking about a place. he´ve seen she on the floor shakin' what she got/she was cool, she was hot.. steamer.. and it runs like this... help me please | Reviewer: Steve Cloutier ------ About the song Whiskey In The Jar (11/14/72) performed by Thin Lizzy would like to know please which album to find this song on? The Citadel | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song The Boys Are Back In Town performed by Thin Lizzy Folks: This song was written about "The Boys" in T Company at The Citadel in South Carolina. Dino's was a bar just down the road (now torn down so a Wendy's could be built) and Johnny's was a place cadets "climbed over the wall" to get to at night (AWOL). What is it about? | Reviewer: Maria ------ About the song Dancing In The Moonlight (It's Caught Me In Its Spotlight) performed by Thin Lizzy I love this song! It's such a great song when you feel like you need to go out and let your inhibitions out! I think this song is about that exactly. Living life to the fullest, and not caring about tomorrow. As long as you are free, happy, and having a great time...that's all that matters.
