Where did you get this video, can it be bought on VHS or something? Thanks

[sandinmyears1]

I've never heard this song before, but "whoever" wrote it, "you know why" they won't claim authorship.

[tomhamilton8]

a song writing by Colm Sands

[FolkandTrad]

we need some musicians like Makem and Clancy, most of the singers nowadays are just crap

[MsOrlandos]

stripped down buck naked, bullet in the head and left to rot in black bin bags, thats what youll get, so you may say fuck all

[InfidelSlaughter]

You know what you'll get. A shallow hole in a waste dump off Penny Lane......

[bondie45]

I am saying nothing........

[Rhydderch69]

Reminds me of the Barrand/Roberts song, A Present from the Gentlemen.

[psaltseller]

From a 1920's union song in the North of England, to a favorite of various underground movements, to being used by (or in support of) the Provos, to the Reagan/Bush I era of paranoia, to the recently completed reign of Bush II, this little piece keeps coming back and stays useful. I've heard a dozen people modestly claim credit (for themselves or their family or whoever) as author. I used to assume Tommy wrote it, it's that good.

[killiekentman]

heard the Sands family sing this. love it.

[greentoaster]

Loose talk costs lives.

[dobelmpk007]

As far as I know , this song was wriiten by Colum Sands , one of the Sands family from near Newry, and is about the Troubles in general not just or particulalry the IRA.

[macliam8]

You know who loves this song?, you know the one who we can't speak of - but don't mention this or you'll get you know what!

[lochaniuirlunasa]

Loose talk costs lives. Whatever you say say nothing!

[holdyourwhisht]

I know exactly what he's talking about......I LOVE Tommy Makem.

Whatever you say, say nothing.

[Modeltsar]

I've loved this one for years and years! Wore my old vinyl LP slap out memorizing it. I am very glad to have this link to share with friends who never got the chance to hear it. Thank you!!!

[gregwyatt46]

Love it. I think the song is from a poem about the IRA's secrecy requirements.

[DwnAszPunk]

I was thinking the same thing

[HabsburgLorraine]

This is marvellous.

[tiernan14]
