[Sean2001]

The song is a beautiful tribute to Dido's late father who would sing Irish rebel songs when she was a child.

Armoured cars and tanks and guns came to take away our sons. And everybody stood behind

the men behind the wire. are lines from the great Irish song "Men behind the Wire".

Dido's mother, Clare (née Collins) is a French poet and her father, William OMalley Armstrong, who died in 2006 was an Irish publisher.

[CmdtEfferquant]

Well, as any oeuvre analysis, you must have a good knowledge of the author's life to fully appreciate the meaning of his art. I don't know Dido, so I can't help you. But I suggest you to read her biography and you may discover important facts that explain her song. This certainly has a link with an Irish heritage because she sings 2 verses from "the Man Behind the Wire", a revolutionary song from Ireland (Wolfe Tones does a great interpretation of by the way). Bonjour du Québec!

[saoirefenian]

The plantations over! Why dont you go home and leave Ulster to its people?

[orangeatan]

wonderful, beautiful song.

[mtownycv]

[oranwillis]

PIRA

[Brittyproud]

The other men behind the wire lyrics are the best -

And when this war is over and our victory is won,

Let us not forget the sacrifice made by these loyal sons,

They were staunch and true for me and you so lift your glasses higher,

Where would we have been without them, the men behind the wire.

[weeandycfc1996]

OH AHHH UP DA RA

[riskyjab]

calling people an orange bastard is disgusting

makes you similar to a rangers thug singing sectarian abuse

very poor

[BroxBhoy]

What is the problem "The men behind the wire" is a song about innocent men being taken away by "internment"

ffs get a grip

[sdolan17]

up the ra

[SMOKEYPROVO]

Attention All HUNs and ORANGE Bastards:

Type in Eir Og, Gary Og or the Irish Birgade there much better than Dido Honest! New York is full of the Irish Republican music in the Amercian bars, go to London they like it to wolf tones practically live there no one gives a fuck. All colours all religions the way it should be. get the tube to Archway any part of London you can hear men behind the wire in full on the streets walking past the bars, no one complains. Huns, no life, no identiy!

[PAC1977IRISH]

Nice song......still dont think its going to get people in the streets fighting again.

[gerry310184]

i read that Dido had used the 'men behind the wire' so i came to check it out myself - god -it was tough having to sit through that dido song. Longest 4 minutes of my life. She truely is boring, i feel i've just woken froma a coma.

[flutterflygoddess]

Are you serious that people are kicking up a ho-ha about 2 lines...get over it! petty much?

[riskyjab]

fair play to dido for using classic irish rebel song men behind the wire here

good lyrics

[ANewCategory]
