@lootauch - shut your hole, your a wee ulster loyal fag, living in scotland, how about u fuck off? if you love english monarchs so much why dont u fuck off there. Scotland is a celtic country, and so is ireland. Whats bigoted about this song? its about the irish taking up arms against the english? a cant imagine u watchin braveheart when the scots take up arms against the english? oh horrible isnt it?

@superglens67 just got a load of racism against the welsh tonight in welsh wales off imperialist students :(...they said to my english friend (the irony) are you welsh or autistic...what a double insult
@b8050124 indeed the song you are looking for is "silver threads amongst the gold" - its from the Fureys - lovely song ...this darrin 42 lad is only a boy - good intentions but thinks the wolfe tones wrote irish music!
@Akoplewitz Not really. I doubt it will be over until Ireland is reunited, and even if that happens there will likely still be violence between Loayalist and Republican.
There is indeed a recording of Luke Kelly - if you go to the Dubliners album - i can't remember the name but it was a live album from O donaghues -around 68 - but you can get it in most good shops not called his masters voice or virgin!!
@b8050124 this song if you'd listen to the last verse, 'some men fight for siver some men fight for gold but the ira are fighting for the land that the saxon stole'

The IRA did not disband after the Anglo Irish Treaty.
They split into two factions-pro and Anti Treaty and a civil war ensued.
The Anti Treaty IRA were defeated and in April 1923 the IRA Chief of Staff called a ceasefire and the Irish Civil War ended. Many former IRA people drifted into politics from 1923 on rather than just disband full stop.
As a kid i grew up in London England and i used to play this song "loud" me mudder from Tralee kept telling me to turn it down and i could not understand why? Obviously later it sank in why as it was the early 70's and she was probably worried about the neighbours. I now live in Los Angeles and it still brings back memories when i hear it but it was sung by another band and it had " Come down the mountain Katy Day" on the other side of the record. Anyone know who that was?
we use to sing, oh we're all off to dublin in the green(f--- the queen....)

Education time - This song refers to the Irish Republic Army who fought in 1916-1921 and disbanded in 1923 after the Anglo-Irish treaty.
This is a whisky drinking song and has little connection with the *many* groups which today call themselves the "IRA".

Not exact.
The IRA did not disband after the Anglo Irish Treaty.
They split into two factions-pro and Anti Treaty and a civil war ensued.
