Phil Lynott - Thin Lizzy

Phil Lynott - Thin Lizzy
"I sure miss you ......
Now you're not around
You're not around
This old town."
'Old Town'
(Bain, Lynott)

The bronze statue of Phil Lynott in Harry Street (off Grafton Street) in Dublin attracts thousands of tourists and music fans from all over the world.

Philomena Lynott, his mother, said: "I'd like him to be remembered as a wonderful son, a kind and gentle soul, a great musician, poet, songwriter, lyricist. That's 'mother' talking, but I know he was great. That's why the fans are still there, and that's why they wanted him honoured."
