Firstly, awesome song. Secondly, what the fuck is with all these fake paddies commenting on the Irish situation like they know about it. Southern Ireland is an independent state, and Northern Ireland is part of the UK. Look up the Northern Ireland sovereignty vote in 1973. 98.9% people in NI voted to stay part of the UK. The UK isn't an "oppressor" any more. Most of Ireland is independent, and the part that isn't doesn't want to be. What's the problem?
I personally dedicate this to Gov. Striker, Walker and the rest of the assholes out there who want to the U.S. back to the days of The Triangle Shirtwaist Factory (look it up). Incidently, Blink 182 are frauds who play bubblegum, DKM have weight to their music
not at all. a union's ultimately only as good as its membership is active. things can be turned around, especially when there's a little confidence going around - courtesy of seeing workers elsewhere standing up for their rights
@dougjnesbitt sadly theres very few good unions out there... you might as well be paying your dues back to your boss, but much respect to those that really cherish and support their workers.
oi anyone bloody notice the union jack on the uniforms ? the shite is this ? i know they are american and from boston but come on they should know better to call themselves "irish" and wear the flag of our oppressor

Hold faith. Shipping the jobs abroad, out from under the unions, has dealt so many blows to the labor movement. That's why i think we should move away from the AFL-CIO model. Renew the call for a "One Big Union", bring in the retail workers and such, push for a general strike and a general consumer boycott. If the workers come together across the board, they can fend for their own.
@johnnylatoco wtf whos comparing murphys 2 blink 182 murphys kickz more ass and i bet fucking Al Barr gets more pussy then every guy in blink 182 lmfao
Slantyrock you are absolutely wrong with every thing you said in that one sentence. the dropkick murphys sound absolutely nothing like blink 182 oh and last I checked while Blink was singing songs about blow jobs and wondering what their fucking ages are, the dropkick murphys sing about shit that actually matters. Once you actually listen to an entire album of dkm, you will realize that the dropkick murphys and blink 182 are not at all alike
@AudreyTillDeath yea, they have songs that probably mean something... to someone... but there's one major difference between Dork182 and DKM... Dropkick Murphys DON'T SUCK!!!
daviddowns, just let al barr grow on ya which hes bound to do hahaha. mccolgan had an edgier voice but barr has definitely filled his shoes over the years
I understand its wrong to judge "a book by its cover", but when I looked at the album of the cd, and listened to this song, I thought he was singing about 10 years of military service and then how Uncle Sam ignored the person. (I've also read the lyrics too) But I'm looking at the video and I'm thinking that people are being laid-off on their jobs and nobody lifts a finger at the benefits office.
Its a fairly Irish-Socialist point of view on labor. The Blue-Collars will ALWAYS be the first ones laid off to save a few dollars. That's why traditionally labor-based towns are suffering in this day and age. Detroit is a classic example of how a reduction in the skilled labor force can result in a worsened economic state. Same thing with Pittsburgh, Cleveland and Milwaukee...
Ireland is a free country, and yes the north is in the united kingdom but the south is a free country. We dont like it wen ppl say were in the united kingdom. not tryin to get at ya mate
most americans dont know too much about northern ireland...its part of the uk but the majority...if not all the catholics there want to be part of ireland which is a free state seperate from the uk
fucking irish americans u want to make your mind up by the way thanks for funding the ira for thirty years or so or we wouldnt be so good at fighting terrorism still u had a taste of your own medicine how we laughed thats a proper terroist not cowards like the ira who planted bombs in cars and pubs and did nt come out fighting no surrender
Al barr rules but nothing beats the original snger mike mc colgan....... I really liked Al's old band the bruisers this is gotta be my favorite song theres a 7inch version with the original singer i believe???
God Damn NINA signs. Anyone from IRELAND know about them? Sure, us younger people never had to deal with that, but our grandparents, great-grandparents, and so forth, they all had to in the cities of Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Pittsburgh and everywhere else in the Mid-Atlantic and the Northeast. Just because you're not from the island, doesn't mean you're not IRISH
cfc35 boy r u confused check your passport and it tells u where u were born all this old country stuff is getting very boring im pure english and dont need to hang on to a history thats not mine get sorted twat
Shipping up to Boston and Sunshine Highway are good songs but I agree that Dropkick Murphys have much better songs out there that are very underrated. You know the media doesnt want us to think so any song with much meaning isnt getting out there, and if the song does have meaning nobody thinks or ponders on it but only on the sound of the song...sad enough.

ive been to your shit hole country and you are trash you have lost your moral fiber and become a country of liberal garbage you have let the worlds trash take over your cities and your lives you are nothing compaired to the irish much less americans so blow me lime sucker
Fuckin' a. However, as an American, I must say that infatuation with a heritage based on genealogy is due to the fact that our culture and history can get a bit boring. Getting into the politics and being a dick is one thing, but I don't see anything wrong with appreciating the music and history.
im going to be the first person to say this, irish americans dont go around talking with fake irish accents and drinking large amounts of alcohol to fit an irish stereotype. i know, shocking, i can hardly believe it either.
its a heritage thing. your granddad's from ireland or italy or whatever, so your parents were raised in that culture, and so are you, to a lesser extent.
also, by your logic, an african isnt an african because he lives in detroit. now thats just stupid.
Glad you pointed that out. The term plastic paddies bothers me. I have Scottish and Irish heritage. I'm proud of both of them but I do realize I'm an American first and foremost and don't pull a "Madonna"
He is dressed as a British worker, so he has it as part of his uniform. He's not supporting the British at all. In fact, its more protest than anything.
It's a simple mis-understanding, if you look closely you can see a small hole (made to look like a bullet hole) above the flag, a means to make the flag a target more than anything else ya dig?
fatscumfilth your just parobably some fat loser ass pussy jealous that more americans have more pride in our famiies than you who just sit around on your computer and talk shit...you dont know shit about irish americans...my grandmother is irish,my father and mother are, but and who gives a fuck what her dog is...dont hate us americans,be thankful you have irish in america who still give a fuck about ireland.....your the problem...people like you fuck over your own kind
The Irish have a home in The Bronx as well, I love this band. Just got into them, been a big Social D fan for a long time, i am in a band in texas used to live in NYC for awile and among the real Irish is the first time I ever felt at home, cant wait till we tour Boston, gonna get fucked up.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
They call themselves irish then y does the laed singer have a british flag on his shirt thats the one thing he shouldn't have on his shirt i mean come on were tryin to fight the brits for our THAT WE OWN and alway HAVE so that shirt is garagage but the band is cool even the lead singer its just what he has on .we are the natives not them.I don't care if your not living or have lived in ireland u should feel the same as me they are trying to take r land there (the brits) greedy bastards .
thats what im saying...i always thought the same bout that shirt...and i like the fact that you said you dont care if your not living or have lived in ireland u should feel the same...i'll knock back one for yuh!
no, you have to understand something, the irish needed a home desperately...where did they find it? BOSTON. i live in boston and trust me motherfucker we are much more irish than american, so shut your fekin face and suk a-rod.
Americans dont call themselves "american" they say I'm Irish or Italian or German, when the were not born there, there parents or grandparents were. :\
3. If you are Irish or have some Irish blood in ya you have to consume a certian amount of beer in order to still be concidered Irish
4. If you are underage and you parents are allowed to give you beer so Drink up Little Ones *warning beer should not be consumed by those under the age of 10*
how would any of you unemployed idiots no anything about going through the shit hole grind of blue collar work..stop thinking you can relate to the working man..just because you're broke does not mean you understand
who says? tell that to bobby sands. there is no difference in brits or english they are both the same monster where the irish are concerned. now iv met some cool brits but 4 the most part they are all the same. watch those loving feet they will walk all over you...up the ra....
Theres nothin wrong with british people. In the past theyve been arseholes. so have most countries. its just a pointless grudge which most irish people dont even bother with anymore.
They continue to be arseholes. Ask Noel Maguire. Also, I never said there was anything wrong with british people. However, the British /government/, to be more specific, leaves something to be desired. Thanks for being opinionated and stuck up about it, though. That was relevant.
This is the best punk rock band out today.

im going to be the first person to say this, irish americans dont go around talking with fake irish accents and drinking large amounts of alcohol to fit an irish stereotype. i know, shocking, i can hardly believe it either.
its a heritage thing. your granddad's from ireland or italy or whatever, so your parents were raised in that culture, and so are you, to a lesser extent.
also, by your logic, an african isnt an african because he lives in detroit. now thats just stupid.

Glad you pointed that out. The term plastic paddies bothers me. I have Scottish and Irish heritage. I'm proud of both of them but I do realize I'm an American first and foremost and don't pull a "Madonna"

How can he wear a British flag when he sings Fields of Athenrye?
FoxfirePoet 4 years ago
He is dressed as a British worker, so he has it as part of his uniform. He's not supporting the British at all. In fact, its more protest than anything.

It's a simple mis-understanding, if you look closely you can see a small hole (made to look like a bullet hole) above the flag, a means to make the flag a target more than anything else ya dig?

False, Mr. Dragon. Calling themselves Irish is short for Irish-American, German for German-American, etc.

Theres nothin wrong with british people. In the past theyve been arseholes. so have most countries. its just a pointless grudge which most irish people dont even bother with anymore.
mattymahone 4 years ago
They continue to be arseholes. Ask Noel Maguire. Also, I never said there was anything wrong with british people. However, the British /government/, to be more specific, leaves something to be desired. Thanks for being opinionated and stuck up about it, though. That was relevant.
