Irish Rebel Songs

Anyone else a fan?


Black Watch - Spirit of Freedom


The S.A.M. Song - Eire Og

Obviously, some of the politics are...problematic. As in, how the Republic of Ireland and other Catholic countries treat women, and the obvious issues with nationalism in general. But I think that looked at in the context of resistance to oppression...there's some interesting stuff.

in it, he implores the passengers aboard the ferry to withold payment until safely at their destination...

You copy and paste everything that comes after the 'v=' in the URL, with [you*tube] before it and [/you*tube] after (without the *s in the middle of YouTube, had to put them there for it to show up) .
