Band sounds great.

Rather funny though and very original

I don't know about that. It's a fun song with some humour to it already.

Maybe I have a radar for them. By the way, the list of all the cover version compiled with the help of this thread can be found here.

I enjoy the Russian version of Rising Of the Moon (here, in the „mp3“ section.). Very fun rendition.

You can put some of ours on there as well Zuzana: they can be dopwnloaded at http://www.finneganslads.nl/mp3

My pleasure, Mick! Added. And good luck with recording more!

By the way - are Si Mhor truly Russian? Because I would swear I´ve heard Czech language at the beginning...

I wouldn't mind "implanting" another Irish-oriented band to our lands, but according to this site they are (or rather were) from Moscow. Also their accent is everything but Czech. (And no matter how I strain my ears, I cannot hear any Czech anywhere in the song - are you sure you were not hearing things? )

By the way, there are many other songs by Irish/Celtic bands at the above mentioned site as well - not Pogues covers, and not only by bands from Russia.

At the beginning, before the song actually begins - there are only drums - I hear: "Nesměj se, fotografujou nás." "Trochu nervózní, co?"
But I might be wrong

Does anyone know that site with a link to a class video of black velvet band by Dubs and Christy Moore? I think theres a link to it on this site somewhere but i cant find it.

This one?

They are Russian. At first they called themselves Slua Si. Then their frontman left with the name so they transformed into Si Mhor. Later he gathered renewed Slua Si. Now both bands (or rather some musicians of both bands) have a joint project - Clann Lir
