Subject: Phil Coulter From: Karen Date: 19 Jul 98 - 10:16 PM I'm looking for Phil Coulter's birth date. |
Subject: RE: Phil Coulter From: Joe Offer Date: 19 Mar 06 - 08:22 PM Well, it's been almost eight years and Phil's a little older now, but here's your answer, from http://www.philcoulter.com/: February 19th 1942. Now we know. -Joe Offer, who was actually researching "Coulter's Candy"- |
Subject: RE: Phil Coulter From: ard mhacha Date: 20 Mar 06 - 05:00 AM Joe, This is a chidrens song from Scotland,likely the Glasgow area, Ally,bally, alli bally bee. Sittin on yer mammy`s knee, Grettin fer a wee bawbee, to buy mair Coulter`s Candy. Grettin=Crying, Bawbee=Shilling, Mair=More. |
Subject: RE: Phil Coulter From: Susanne (skw) Date: 20 Mar 06 - 08:18 PM Nothing to do with Phil, as the man in the song was really Robert Coltart or Coultart, from Galashiels, and the song has been sung since 1898 at the least. |
Subject: RE: Phil Coulter From: greg stephens Date: 21 Mar 06 - 11:12 AM Took you a while to answer that, didn't it, Joe? Mudcat running a bit slow these days! |
Subject: RE: Phil Coulter From: ard mhacha Date: 21 Mar 06 - 12:55 PM Susanne, I would never have guessed, thank you. |
Subject: RE: Phil Coulter Songs (lyrics, chords) From: Genie Date: 12 Jun 08 - 03:06 PM After watching a PBS special last night, a concert by Celtic Thunder, I found that 8 of the songs they sang were written by Phil Coulter. Since this thread title is just his name, I thought I should put my queries here instead of starting another thread. Here are the Phil Coulter songs Celtic Thunder sang: "Heartland" "The Old Man" (several lyric threads in the forum) "Heartbreaker" Steal Away (chords) "My Boy" "Ireland's Call" "That's A Woman" "Remember Me, Recuerde Me" Phil Coulter also wrote these songs (lyrics here in the forum): "Scorn Not His Simplicity" "Yesterday's Men" "Home From The Sea" "The Town I Knew So Well" Anyone have the lyrics (or lyr/chords) to "Ireland's Call" or "My Boy" or "Heartland" or any of the other Phil Coulter songs?

Subject: RE: Phil Coulter From: GUEST,Shaneo not logged in Date: 12 Jun 08 - 04:11 PM I have most of Phil's songs worked out for guitar, here is Hand Me Down Me Bible Hava a good look around the site, you will find plenty more, inc. The Old Man, Town I Loved So Well, The Molly Maguires, Steal Away, Scorn Not His Simplicity, Free The People and a few more. Phil Coulter also wrote most of The Bay City Rollers hits, and some songs for Cliff Richards |
Subject: RE: Phil Coulter From: Genie Date: 12 Jun 08 - 04:30 PM Thanks, Shaneo not logged. :) As I said, I already found Scorn Not His Simplicity, The Old Man and the chords to Steal Away here in the forum. I'll look up the other ones you mentioned (which I didn't know were Phil Coulter songs). I posted the lyrics to "Heartland" in a separate thread. I've done some googling to find Phil Coulter's lyrics but basically what I come up with are lyrics to songs he's RECORDED - most of which, apparently, are not his own compositions. (That's a common "google glitch" I encounter when trying to find who wrote a song or find lyrics composed by a given songwriter.) |
Subject: RE: Phil Coulter From: oggie Date: 12 Jun 08 - 04:52 PM He also produced the first "Planxty" album Steve |
Subject: RE: Phil Coulter From: Big Mick Date: 11 Feb 09 - 01:25 PM Shaneo, that is a great resource. I wasn't aware that Coulter wrote a song about the Molly Maguires and couldn't find it. Could you give me a link? Thanks and all the best, Mick |
Subject: RE: Phil Coulter From: Susanne (skw) Date: 11 Feb 09 - 07:19 PM Mick, see here: Molly Maguires: Songs about? and The Molly Maguires |
Subject: RE: Phil Coulter From: katlaughing Date: 11 Feb 09 - 07:43 PM Susanne, I still love and play the tape you sent me, so long ago, now, which has the Molly McGuires on it. Thanks! |
Subject: RE: Phil Coulter From: Susanne (skw) Date: 14 Feb 09 - 05:48 PM Kat, I'm pleased to hear it still works! |
Subject: RE: Phil Coulter From: GUEST,Mary Date: 26 Feb 09 - 11:58 PM Mahi I want to know if anyone has the chords to the Celtic Thunder songs, Heartbreaker, The Island or woman. Thank you |
Subject: RE: Phil Coulter From: GUEST,Pam Hulse Date: 14 Oct 10 - 05:29 PM Looking for guitar chords or sheet music for Ally Bally Bee - can anyone out there help me? I'd like to record it with a compilation of other songs for my soon-to-be grandchild. Thanks! Pam |

Subject: RE: Phil Coulter From: GUEST,mg Date: 15 Oct 10 - 03:51 AM I think they are singing so many Phil Coulter songs because it is a group he put together. mg |
Subject: RE: Phil Coulter From: GUEST,Silas Date: 15 Oct 10 - 04:12 AM Hi Oggie I'd contact Christy and Andy about this, i don't think they are all that impressed with the treatmet they had from Phil. |
