This song always reminds me of my grandpa straight irishman to the core. RIP

[MCMCsimulation]

Great song, it's the kind of song that will be stuck in your head for days.

[ScabiousGarde]

I've heard this song I don't know how many times, and I've just now made the connection to the soft drink. It takes some of the fun out of it. Sorry if I ruined it for any one else.

[Yotubedude33434]

[MikeBruceSullivan]

happy st pats day: foggy dew, mountain dew, danny boy, by the rising of the moon, unicorn, whiskey in the jar--all these are great tunes. don't forget a portion of the minstrel boy and scotland the brave.

[MrMostevilgenius]

St.Paddy's tomorrow......I pray my liver will forgive me, cheers all!

[alchoholic20]

Poteen was renowned for getting you drunk the next day by drinking water.

[McGrenzer]

Numenor, Clancy fans have every reason to be grateful to you for posting some of the earliest, purest versions of their songs, before age came upon them all. Many thanks, Lord.

[gearkraft]

Mountain dew is referring to Poitin (pronounced pah cheen). A type of Irish 'moonshine'.

[funhat65]

@gearkraft yeeeeeeehhhhhhhhhhhhhhoooooooo­o!

[josephus47]

thanks but i meant what key is it

[josephus47]

what kind of whistle is that?

[1982relentless]

@josephus47

its called a tin whistle.

[waaeaa]

IRISH QUEING FOR 7YRS LOSE OUT TO IMMIGRANTS

From Nov 09 to March 2010, out of 19 council houses, allocated by Tralee council 11 went to immigrants. Many Irish people are on the housing waiting list, some waiting for 7yrs, and the houses are going to foreigners.

Kerryman 14/4/10

This at a time when Irish children in care are being moved around in different care homes and B&B's. Some of these kids have been abused and committed suicide - they would greatly benefit from a secure council house.

[dddrum]

Was this real old Mountain Dew REAL old... like, from back before all those gay flavor variations like LiveWire, Code Red, and H4xx0rGasm?

Cause that would be real old, all right.

[MikeBruceSullivan]

I like this song better than Danny Boy, The Foggy Dew, The Moonshiner....it's such a happy positive song, while the other olde Irish tunes are a little sad and melodromatic.1 of my favorite lines..."Now learned men who use the pen.." and "at the foot of the hill, there's a neat little still...by the smoke & the smell u can plainly tell that there's witchin brewin nearby" Great post for F's sake!!! :)

[detlefius1]

[detlefius1]

[postdrop]

It's hard to explain to someone who didn't have family members sort of drifting off into "diddly idle dum" all the time.

[monkey5656]

[AnnizTranqu]

yabayabayabalesscomplainingmor­esinging

[mat70x]

and also all this happened years ago, its the Irish that carry on a war that only they are fighting, you don't see any english militant groups, I say give back N.ireland to the Irish... Thats one thing we do agree on...

[Furellix]

well, fighting seems to be the only method of gaining england's attention long enough to make things change..

and i can't help but notice you removed your earlier comment. I would have left it for the world to see, it's your opinion and you're entitled.

[mat70x]

And also shut your irish political bollocks... YOUR A FUCKIN YANK....DEAL WITH IT!!!

[Furellix]

I notice that your profile sports the red cross of england.. Good for you! Hell, i have a mind to cheer on thieves and murderers as well!

Another thing i noticed, was that your profile states you're 107 years of age. That being said, i feel compelled to express my disdain in regards to your choice of words, and grammar.. that's not to say mine's perfect, but at least i don't type like a yank.

[Gzus70]

why does everyone get so worked up over a song, whats done is done and you cant change it no matter how much you bitch and moan about it on the internet, just listen and enjoy the song

if you want to post your personal beliefs and views GO MAKE A DAMN BLOG

[orangewhitegreen]

I like this song, Its simple and upbeat

[54spiritedwill54]

awesome song

[GeneGorum]

whiskey tastes like corn....raise ye hands who hate corn

[Bartoniusz28]

hmmm... Maybe you re right. I don't really like whiskey, but my grandpa used to make some good booze of caramel taste :) Yet i prefer beer :)

[ashurtank]

then your not drinking good whiskey

[PaulieRomanov]

AVENGE BRIAN BORU AND NICHOLAS II BY OPPOSING FREEMASONRY AND CATHOLICISM!

Catholicism and Freemasonry have kept the Irish people in bondage for 800 years and still keeps Northern Ireland under the British Crown.And Catholicism oppresses the Russians,for they invented Communism and helped place the Freemason pig Vladimir Putin.

[PaulieRomanov]

Russia and Ireland are the best!

Long live Eire and the Motherland!

[chadfitzy]

this is anoying me. i love these guys, but which songs are their and what are clancy originals and what are dubliners originals...........o and R.I.P Tommy Makem

[bullyboy1863]

you know what? does it matter what religion we are? for once...just once....id like to see these 3 religions get along...once.

[IcemanBravo]

Actually, my english teacher went to Ireland and asked that question at a bar. The guy to one side says "I'm Catholic and I hate all the religous fighting", the guy to the other side says "I'm protestant and I feel the same" and then my teacher goes "Well I'm Jewish". So there you go, seems like its not as bad as we thought ; ).

[bullyboy1863]

wow really?

[Furellix]

yes, but you have to understand what the fighting's all about. For centuries those protestants have kept the Catholics locked up in their own homes as second class citizens! They were great men Parnell and Tone, protestant themselves, but inclined to see the people had equal rights. whether they be Catholic or protestant. It's the protestants now, more than brittainia's cruelty that keeps Ireland a nation divided! And pray we can fix that soon!

[Furellix]

There is no intention of course to have the protestants thrown out, or slaughtered. Though it'd be grand to set life for the protestants unhealthy, just as Michael Collins did for all the informers and spies who so frequently found themselves in the depths of Dublin castle! let's encourage the protestants to move to england! Or inspire in them the same desire, as we Irish feel ourselves, to Be Irish! That would lead us to a treasure not seen for over 800 years! "Ireland free from center to sea!"

[foxyfaefife]

Your profile says you're in America. Are you actually Irish, or do you just have Irish ancestry? The truth is I've never met an Irish person who still dwells on this outdated sectarian bullshit - it's usually the misinformed Yanks like yourself who think that the IRA is a morally permissible organisation and that Britain actually exploits Northern Ireland in some way nowadays. I'm glad to say the relevance of your ignorant romanticism is quickly fading.

[cbacher1985]

Spoken like a citizen of the UK. The truth is, I've never met an Englishmen who will honestly tell me about the venom his country has spread throughout the world. Do i think the IRA is morally permissible? Not at this piont in history, no. However, i think the IRA was of crutial importance when the much needed Irish Republic was still taking shape. And especially so, when it came to fighting off the 'Lobster-backs' like yourselves.

Really I posted that a month ago.. Get a life boss.

[foxyfaefife]

You've done nothing but prove your own bigotry in making those comments. I'm not even English, or Protestant for that matter. I just happen to object to morons making irrelevant nationalistic and anti-sectarian comments on matters where they're clearly entirely ill-educated.

[Furellix]

Oh yeah? Well I say Fuck You, and fuck anyone who feels Ireland better in England's hands than free. My Grandparents and parents didn't struggle for nothing! Someday the things for which they so valiantly fought will be a reality! And if that means i play into politics, pick up a rifle, or spend the rest of my life in prison, That's Fine! And to have another word, I'm on my way to a masters in Irish History..

[foxyfaefife]

Evidently you should take more notice of the current political situation in Northern Ireland instead of dwelling on history.

[Furellix]

Hey boss, You seem to be missing the point. this all started when i explained that the protestants and english made the Catholics second class citizens.. I had it in me to express that I Feel(along with countless others) that the english have NO right to Any part of Ireland. Even if what they're doing is good, It's Not their affair! It's Not their country! Let the english rule england and the Irish rule Ireland.. and by that i mean of course those officials ellected by the Irish people.

[Furellix]

If Irishmen vote an englishman into any office, good for them. But the english have no right, nor will they ever, to have their own affairs in another country. lest you should feel otherwise.. would you approve of the USA dropping into greenland, shooting up the place, and then forcing the people to abide by its laws? Even if the laws were quite civil.. Unlike england's laws pressed firmly on the Irish people.. Did you know the english made wearing the colour green illegal?

[Furellix]

Punishable by death!.. Let's say a man walked into your home, sits down and says, "this is the way things will be from here on." You'd throw him out on his rear! Why? Because he has No right to the control of you or your family! It wouldn't matter if he were the finest man you'd ever met! So don't you go sittin there on your computer tellin me and all these people that everything's grand! Because it's not! what's happening is criminal! made legal by threat of the innihilation of the Irish race!

[foxyfaefife]

I'm going to point out the most glaring mistakes that you've made here:

1) That any part of Ireland is "ruled by England"

2) That there actually is an Irish "race"

3) That there's any threat of annihilation of this supposed Irish "race"

If you have an ounce of rationality and you really are as passionate about all of this as you'd like to make out, I suggest you consider why those three allegations are complete bollocks. If you come to the correct conclusion it might make your life easier.

[foxyfaefife]

Oh, and one more thing. You seem to think you'd be accepted in Ireland as a freedom fighter of some sorts, that you're actually Irish. Even if you did manage to find the minority who agree with your fucking idiotic views, I can say as a Scottish person you wouldn't be accepted. There's nothing worse than an American person who thinks that they're Italian, Scottish, Irish and so on because earlier generations of their family emigrated from there. YOU'RE AMERICAN, get used to it.

[Furellix]

I'm going to point out that you made no argument toward my main point. that the usurpation of power by the english Was wrong, Is wrong, and will always Be wrong. As for my previous mistake, please, oh please, forgive me for using the term 'race'! And there was such a threat! Threat of Great and Terrible War, should Michael Collins refuse the deal offered by the english! And look at yourself, and your people. Finally given in.. no longer willing to fight.. guess scotsman are easily stifled.

[Furellix]

And have you forgotton that Ireland's First president Was An AMERICAN? Remember Eamon De Valera? I have family in Ireland, friends, and more, and i've yet to meet an Irishman that didn't like me.. So don't you tell me I wouldn't Be accepted! lol I am Already!! Please bear in mind that you can't win an argument with someone who Refuses to lose.. and bear in mind i have no computer, so my next response may not be for a few weeks.

[mansderk]

De Valera was half Irish half Cuban. Not American.

[Furellix]

Valera was born in New York. That's part of America.. Just sayin..

[mansderk]

Since he moved back to Ireland at the age of two and none of his parents were american, I dont think he should be considered american at all

[greatbrownbear]

Dev was born in america.

[johnmadden1989]

AMERICAAAAAA

[KingNuada1]

Sucks?

[johnmadden1989]

If you've ever seen the Michael Collins film with Alan Rickman as Dev you'll understand :P

[naughton101]

he was born in America so he is an Irish-Cuban-American

[mat70x]

So what about me then? My mums English, My dads Irish? I have both passports.

[Bartoniusz28]

I don't know the history of Ireland but i'm trying to learn it. Tell me why there is so much war between catholics and protestants. In my coutry there was some kind of misunderstandings between protestants and catholics but it never was any open war. Is it has something to do with anglicanism church? I'm just asking. I have no means of arguing on that subject.

[BretWinters]

Try and find an unbiased history book or a variety of books from both sides and come up with your own answer, sure everyone else does...

[Kbroo90]

@IcemanBravo ewww ur teachers a jew

[effigytormented]

@IcemanBravo A Catholic and Protestant and a Jewish guy went into a bar, they had a fine evening and nothing happened that would raise an eyebrow . . . save when someone ended up with a pink feather boa and another threw up a humorous paper umbrella.

[OreWaUsopp]

@effigytormented

I think you're thinking of a Werewolf and a Vampire and a Dwarf.

[effigytormented]

@OreWaUsopp Indeed, that was pretty funny.

[bullyboy1863]

[kpsoso]
