the second-highest is ..... All-Ireland.
JUST THOUGHT YOU'D LIKE TO KNOW BEFORE YOU GO ON AND ON AND ON LIKE A RABBIT OF IRISH SUPERIORITY. WE ARE AS GOOD AS ANYONE ELSE. BUT WE ARE NOT BETTER THAN THEM. WE ARE ALL EQUAL.
GOT THAT? Good! now carry on writing to you tube.
a superiority complex actually is an extension of an INFERIORITY complex.
I am Mexican but have an immense amount of respect for the Irish. Your beer, your music, your scenery, your customs, your traditions. You guys just ROCK! I'm glad Pandora brought me here and someday I will visit it with great joy. My favorite color has been green since I was five and the first beer I liked was XX. Even though it's Mexican, it was green! lol Rodrigo Y Gabriela left Mexican metal, adopted Irish acoustic styles and made MAGIC. Yes, I appreciate the Irish very much.
I am of Irish ancestry. My mom is brazilian and my dad is irish. He has orange hair. I have no idea if it is a coincidence or not ha. Our irish family hails from Tipperary, ireland and we are of the O'Dwyer's. My great grandfather always used to tell stories of brian boru. He sed that he's traced our family roots back to him which is awesome. Proud to b Irish
Well, you people are pretty good at thinking of your own great dads. Well, let me tell you that Brian Boru was the great guy who sounds like this. So everybody O'Brian listen to this, listen to Boru's song.
I know this is an intelligent conversation about hair, but let us forget the squabble and all celebrate our celtic blood, Most of my ancestors and blood comes from Ireland and my best friends from Scotland, we dream of visiting both countries lol
There was a recent study finding that the Insular Celts (Irish, Welsh, Manx, Scottish and Cornish) have a distinct genetic Y-Haplotype that shares a peak in frequency with the basques. Basically meaning that the Celts married the original indigenous peoples and carry the highest frequency of their genes. Meaning the Celts are probably the closest thing to an existing indigenous population in the Isles. :)
@DarkenVise Oppenheimer's study is what you're referring to, and it stated pretty clearly that actual Celtic influence didn't come until later, nor was it particularly frequent outside of Gaelic areas. Wales, Mann, Scotland, and Cornwall all saw heavy Gaelic influence due to very frequent raids and invasions by Irish tribes. The Gaels themselves share a common ancestor with the Basques, since the Gaels are from Northern Spain originally.
Lads Ireland is great country... when it wants to be hahaha most of the time it pisses rain here...
but once you get past the weather (or lack of)... the narrowmindedness and thye lack of anything entertaining but drinking urself into a stupour...... Ireland truly is a gorgeous country and very peaceful :)
Hi all, I like Celtic music but I know that maybe you don't know the celtic works from Spain and Portugal so I'll leave you some examples here, maybe you like them also, the bagpipes here in Iberia are different, smaller:
This from them but with bagpipes:
/watch?v=V3WKbaw3AMI
This with few bagpipes:
Luar na Lubre - /watch?v=rtbLepr6P3Y
This one with bagpipes is from Hevia, part of the Lord of the Rings soundtrack (from Asturias):
@crashhpt For those who are not familiar, the celtic tribes in Iberian Peninsula defeated the Roman empire for over 100 years until they were finally defeated. The main ones were the Lusitanians (specially from Portugal) and Celtici from north, GALicia (ancient Gallaecia). The video has images from Galicia which is like Northern Portugal full of celtic hillforts, but the Romans destroyed almost all culture. We still have triskels, elf sculptures, bagpips, music, etc, but a lot has been destroyed

Táim i nGrá le mo thír dhuchais!( I am in love with my country of origin....and I am ashamed of those who are degrading it)
I'm of Irish ancestry; I come from the Morains and O'Lynns. My da had a beard as red as anything before it turned grey. :] I have that color hair and I'm very pale. My boyfriend is a Dennis, Irish also. We long to go to Ireland with a desire we cannot describe...someday, we will take our children there! Our mother land calls us home to her emerald hills and fair beaches. Not to mention, the great beer. :]
@Malleolust Well I live on the south coast, lots of beaches nearby. There's only one anyone ever goes to to swim because it's generally accepted that the rest of them will probably give you numerous diseases. Sad but true.
@kaballmo Awwwww. Really? That's horrible. :( Kind of sounds like a river I used to live close to, the Ohio. It's truly a dump, people have contaminated and ruined a river that was at one point entirely beautiful and a route to freedom for African slaves. We are sure what parts of Ireland we want to visit, but I know I want to see Newgrange, rocky beaches with crashing water, and Dublin.
@chevolution1991 :( It would seem so. I'm receiving comments that say what you have said. Surely there are a few parts that remain untouched and uncontaminated...? :(
@tomuchBAformyJIFF Yes, you are correct. I know that the Irish/Scottish red hair came from Scandinavia. It's interesting. :) I know a lot of Irish men and women also have dark hair! I just know that mine is definitely Irish, as my father's family is Irish and with many redheads. Some of them have flaming orangey-red hair! haha Mine is an auburn red.
@Malleolust I'm irish.. All my family are irish.. As a matter of fact I'm still here.. Most people do not have red hair.. most people are clean shaven and don't drink. As a matter of fact I'm a Murphy. A Mac Murchaidh. But yes you're right.. The good old days when people had flat caps and large beards and their jobs were to sit in pubs all day.
@Malleolust that's cool, but I just want to make clear that having red hair does not make you Irish (I know you probably understand but a lot of people in America assume this because of Lucky in lucky charms cereal, its very funny to laugh at stupid people who think this)
@THECaptainPlanetHD Oh, I definitely do know that. As I stated in a previous comment, I know that the original mutated red hair gene came from Scandinavia and made it's way over to Ireland/Scotland. :) I also know that many Irish people are dark-haired or brunette. A hair color doesn't make you from a specific people. I just know that many of the women in my family are redheaded and of Irish descent. I researched. I'm not a random American that always claims Irish ancestry! I know for fact. Haha
@THECaptainPlanetHD I read somewhere that red hair is a nordic mutation. So that would mean Irish people with red hair are probably descendants of the Hiberno-Norse.
Every American with at least a little bit of Irish in them should move to Ireland and leave everyone else to deal with the blacks and Mexicans. Then Ireland will rise again!!!
Every American with at least a little bit of Irish in them should move to Ireland and leave everyone to deal with the blacks and Mexicans. Then Ireland will rise again!!!
If I lived in Ireland it'd be looking for that sword in the cave. That would change of Ireland's problems. I don't know how to say this other then I love Ireland. I just want to hug it. When I visit just lay in a field of its grass and look towards the sky. All the seriousness goes out of me. An I can honestly enjoy myself. It says welcome home to those that never been their. The Irish for me are the most loved group in the world. By other countries standards. No one has issues with the Irish.
And now our governments encourage multiculturalism. Can't the people see this is cultural suicide? The glory of our ancestors and the history of all our struggles will fade away and die in vain. I wish there was a united voice against globalism and in support of preserving our heritage, freedom, and collective identity.
@Midvinterblot542 Fuckin A I can't stand all this pc multiculturalism bs.Europeans cant even be proud or speak their minds anymore for fear of offending some minority or another.I think they should kick all non-natives the fuck out of Europe they do nothing but cause shit anyway.The U.S unfortunatly is screwed on that score.But they'll sit on their hands and do nothing and when they are outnumbered by muslims they will discover the joys of sharia law.Sorry for the rant subject hit a nerve.
@jjjhs08 The war on discourse is just as important. Words are extremely important. For instance, the word 'racism' even uttered your way could possibly result in you losing your job. It is important to understand that it is the race that creates culture. Having an opposite view opens up the liberal idea that we're all merely pieces of blank paper that can be shaped into any culture, which is essentially a lie!
@csno1 It's important to note that people can be shaped by their culture, just as they shape the culture. People adapting to culture is especially obvious today, with the massive amount of international immigration many countries are experiencing, cultures are shifting, and fusing. People give up a bit of their old culture in exchange for shaping the new one. It's how things work.
@Postscript624 People's views can be shaped by culture, but not their underlying abilities in-terms of creativity and physical ability. It's very unlikely that Africans will develop a space programme, and I don't expect them to. What I want is what is essentially best for 'us'. The genocide of our people is not in our interest.
@Evanmonster1 I think you might still find some re-releases of the album somewhere. I have the original Nazgul's Eyrie copy and that is indeed a rarity :)
this is exactly what i was looking for! an irish band that deals with the myths and ledgends of irsh history! i listen to alot of black and viking metal all about norwegians and sewedes n stuff and iwas like fuck im irish itd be way cooler if these songs were about my home! whats cooler is i went to school in clontarf, where brian boru fought the battle of clontarf
@Jane1620 Well technically according to Irish mythology the majority of the Gaels are descended from the druid Mile who came from northern Spain (: Other clans (like my family in Cork for example) most likely settled earlier from England and France.
@leldoryn Historically, it's hard to tell. Especially since it was proven recently that the Gaelic migration was a slow one, spread out over a period of several hundred years. They came from a lot of different places, really.
@srbijanrockingirl Ok, I managed to translate what you said. Firstly, Breton refers to the people of Brittany, whom are a totally different Celtic people all together, not the people of Britain.
Secondly, Balkan Slavs have a totally different genome from Celts. However, Celtic languages originated from Germanic groups. We'd be from a different migratory group than you Serbians, however.
@UISTMAN59 You missed the point. The Breton are considered a Celtic people speaking a Celtic language, and they are a different group of Celts, being closer to Gauls than Gaels.
And the Norman/Saxon bit is actually a surprisingly small minority limited mostly to Ulster and Leinster. They're descended from the ones who were left behind when they were driven out of Ireland. They became Gaelicized, of course, and as Irish as any Irish.
@UISTMAN59 No, you're definitely being an ass. You're coming on here, thinking correcting everyones' posts without any provocation. All you're really doing is being an ass, and not proving any point.
@UISTMAN59 She responded to something I said. I was justified in responding and correcting her. While this may be the internet, it's still impolite to come on here and act like an ass the way you were.
And if you're gonna correct me for saying "for Christ's sake" by telling me things I already know, it proves you're not just an ass, but an asshole who's trying to be a smartass and failing miserably at it.
You're English. I'm positive of it. Scotts and Welsh don't act like you.
@UISTMAN59 I'm not American. I'm from Roscommon. I just live in America. I'm a fluent Gaelic speaker myself, however, I still think you're English... Unless you're from Connacht too, in which case I can understand being an ass.
@Cainus44 Sorry to correct you but it has to be done, just because you speak fluent irish doesnt make you more irish than any other irish man.. If you are born in this country than you have the claim, oh and if you did some proper research you would realize after the human race spread from africa to other parts of the world the people you know as celts then came to europe from India and spread to parts of europe, they were rivals of the germanic people and the germanic barbarians spread to
@philipx360 The idea that the Celts came from India is horribly outdated, and rooted in little more than a few similarities between the two cultures. The Celts, like all Europeans, came through Anatolia, after Mesopotamia.
I never claimed to be more Irish than anyone else, either.
@Cainus44 Britain and the celtic natives took Scotland and Ireland the way europe is divided now was pretty different when this was happening.... oh and its completely possible you are in fact not even of irish because of all the invaders and visitors we have had in the past 1500 years so stop blowing your own horn about being irish and you and your other american wannabes having a great time celebrating our culture and commercialising it when you dont even realise what it isto be irish, Amadan
@philipx360 Quite so, my brother. I'm a Canadian Scot, and my family are highlanders but we only go back to 1066 and William of Orange. It's just as accurate to call me a Norman as a Scot or a Canadian. However, identity, as an image of oneself, is important and you shouldn't call it down. This music makes my blood sing.
@isolateslowfaults I think you'll find William of Orange wasn't born until 500 odd years after 1066. Take it you mean William the Conqueror (aka. William the Bastard) ;).
@philipx360 Celts were not native to Scotland or Ireland, and Germanic tribes were mostly limited to England, and were assimilated into the native and Celtic cultures soon after the Saxons and Vikings lost power in Britannia.
Most of the invaders were in Leinster or Ulster. I'm from Connacht, Roscommon, specifically. Pure Irish, since it was relatively untouched by invaders. I live in America because I wanted to go to school.
So true. I live in Canada and I'm just sick and tired of living in a melting in pot with no true culture or pride, and having to comply with every little wrong behavior some muslim immigrant brings with him. I'm of Irish descent and each time I see a golden harp, or an Irish pagan monument, or a cliff with the sea, or pretty much every picture resembling those in this video I tell myself "Fuck. What am I doing here ?". It just feels like I lived in Ireland all my life and I'm homesick
Well, the fact is that Ireland has the highest concentration of redheads in the world, as well as being characteristically pale, due to the constant cloudiness of the island.
That's actually Scotland with 13% of the population for all the various shades, Ireland = 10%. Neither a huge number in their own right, but more than the average for Europe for sure. The vast majority of Irish do indeed have brown hair though (upwards of 70%)
Well, red hair is a rarity. Did I ever say it wasn't? However, what I did say was that Ireland (let me rephrase that) the celtic peoples of northern Britain and Ireland are associated with red hair due to the high prevalence of it there.
And both the Scottish and Irish are closely related genetically, being that the mesolithic Scottish traveled to Ireland (and the reverse) frequently during periods of low tide, when the land bridge in southern ireland surfaced.
@Reghedable Actually pretty much every inhabitant of Scotland in history came from Ireland first, including the Picts (Fir Bolg). They're closely related genetically because they're the exact same people. The Fir Bolg (Picts) in Ireland were overtaken by the Gaels around 300 B.C., and the Scotti tribe of the Gales (from whom Scotland gets its name) overtook the Picts of Scotland in the Dark Ages. Both went through Ireland first.
And they probably sailed. These were pretty smart people.
You're going back further than I was. But you'd figure the celts would originate in the island closer to the european mainland, right? Not so. Fascinating stuff.
@sksman71 The Milesians in the Book of Invasions are meant to have come from Spain, as far as I remember. They are the mythological counterpart for the Celts themselves, so that would suggest Irish people do have Spanish origins.
@Reghedable Not to mention that the original meaning of the word 'Scot' was an Irishman given that the ancestral home of the Scottish Gaels was Ireland.
@Reghedable Scotland, itself, derives its name from the Latin "Scotus" which meant "of Ireland" And yes, red hair is a common trait of celts, and found throughout the celtic lands, whether the British Isles, northern Germany, and, while now fairly rare, central Turkey (Galatia was settled by the Celts before Roman times.)
@Reghedable «M284 is found in small percentages in both France and Germany, but the place
of highest frequency on the Continent is in Portugal - pointing to an
Iberian origin with the Ice Age refugees having moved west and south (as
well as north).»
Strange isn't it? We have here in Iberia art by cavemen with more the 20.000 years of age (the oldest in the world) and even an hybrid of homosapiens and neardenthal on our coast. So you're linked to even more countries. :) Great music, best regards

If I lived in Ireland it'd be looking for that sword in the cave. That would change of Ireland's problems. I don't know how to say this other then I love Ireland. I just want to hug it. When I visit just lay in a field of its grass and look towards the sky. All the seriousness goes out of me. An I can honestly enjoy myself. It says welcome home to those that never been their. The Irish for me are the most loved group in the world. By other countries standards. No one has issues with the Irish.

And now our governments encourage multiculturalism. Can't the people see this is cultural suicide? The glory of our ancestors and the history of all our struggles will fade away and die in vain.

@jjjhs08 The war on discourse is just as important. Words are extremely important. For instance, the word 'racism' even uttered your way could possibly result in you losing your job. It is important to understand that it is the race that creates culture. Having an opposite view opens up the liberal idea that we're all merely pieces of blank paper that can be shaped into any culture, which is essentially a lie!
csno1 1 year ago
@csno1 It's important to note that people can be shaped by their culture, just as they shape the culture. People adapting to culture is especially obvious today, with the massive amount of international immigration many countries are experiencing, cultures are shifting, and fusing. People give up a bit of their old culture in exchange for shaping the new one. It's how things work.

@Postscript624 People's views can be shaped by culture, but not their underlying abilities in-terms of creativity and physical ability.

Secondly, Balkan Slavs have a totally different genome from Celts. However, Celtic languages originated from Germanic groups. We'd be from a different migratory group than you Serbians, however.
Of course, us Irish are part native and Celt.

@UISTMAN59 You missed the point. The Breton are considered a Celtic people speaking a Celtic language, and they are a different group of Celts, being closer to Gauls than Gaels.
And the Norman/Saxon bit is actually a surprisingly small minority limited mostly to Ulster and Leinster. They're descended from the ones who were left behind when they were driven out of Ireland. They became Gaelicized, of course, and as Irish as any Irish.

If you are born in this country than you have the claim, oh and if you did some proper research you would realize after the human race spread from africa to other parts of the world the people you know as celts then came to europe from India and spread to parts of europe, they were rivals of the germanic people and the germanic barbarians spread to
philipx360 1 year ago
@philipx360 The idea that the Celts came from India is horribly outdated, and rooted in little more than a few similarities between the two cultures. The Celts, like all Europeans, came through Anatolia, after Mesopotamia.
I never claimed to be more Irish than anyone else, either.
Cainus44 1 year ago
@Cainus44 Britain and the celtic natives took Scotland and Ireland the way europe is divided now was pretty different when this was happening.... oh and its completely possible you are in fact not even of irish because of all the invaders and visitors we have had in the past 1500 years so stop blowing your own horn about being irish and you and your other american wannabes having a great time celebrating our culture and commercialising it when you dont even realise what it isto be irish, Amadan

@philipx360 Quite so, my brother. I'm a Canadian Scot, and my family are highlanders but we only go back to 1066 and William of Orange. It's just as accurate to call me a Norman as a Scot or a Canadian. However, identity, as an image of oneself, is important and you shouldn't call it down. This music makes my blood sing.

@philipx360 Celts were not native to Scotland or Ireland, and Germanic tribes were mostly limited to England, and were assimilated into the native and Celtic cultures soon after the Saxons and Vikings lost power in Britannia.
Most of the invaders were in Leinster or Ulster. I'm from Connacht, Roscommon, specifically. Pure Irish, since it was relatively untouched by invaders. I live in America because I wanted to go to school.

That's actually Scotland with 13% of the population for all the various shades, Ireland = 10%. Neither a huge number in their own right, but more than the average for Europe for sure. The vast majority of Irish do indeed have brown hair though (upwards of 70%)

@Isthistakenn
Well, red hair is a rarity. Did I ever say it wasn't? However, what I did say was that Ireland (let me rephrase that) the celtic peoples of northern Britain and Ireland are associated with red hair due to the high prevalence of it there.
And both the Scottish and Irish are closely related genetically, being that the mesolithic Scottish traveled to Ireland (and the reverse) frequently during periods of low tide, when the land bridge in southern ireland surfaced.

@Reghedable Actually pretty much every inhabitant of Scotland in history came from Ireland first, including the Picts (Fir Bolg). They're closely related genetically because they're the exact same people. The Fir Bolg (Picts) in Ireland were overtaken by the Gaels around 300 B.C., and the Scotti tribe of the Gales (from whom Scotland gets its name) overtook the Picts of Scotland in the Dark Ages. Both went through Ireland first.
And they probably sailed. These were pretty smart people.

@Reghedable Scotland, itself, derives its name from the Latin "Scotus" which meant "of Ireland" And yes, red hair is a common trait of celts, and found throughout the celtic lands, whether the British Isles, northern Germany, and, while now fairly rare, central Turkey (Galatia was settled by the Celts before Roman times.)

accounts for about 4% of all Scottish men ...... a living link with the cave
painters of the Ice Age Refuges.» and then you'll find this:

Strange isn't it? We have here in Iberia art by cavemen with more the 20.000 years of age (the oldest in the world) and even an hybrid of homosapiens and neardenthal on our coast. So you're linked to even more countries. :) Great music, best regards
