  • haha i scrolled down after reading the previous guy's thing...fucking hilarious

  • join the dropkick murphys are the greatest a new group on facebook dedicated to the dropkick murphys

  • how can people argue if they're irish? one of their albums has an irish bulldog and shamrocks on it..

  • First of all, there's no such thing as an "irish bulldog". Second, they're American born by irish heritage.

  • there irish-american

  • They're American first. That's where I've drawn the line for myself. I respect my heritage, but I understand that I'm an American first. I'm no plastic paddy.

  • im opposite, i pay attention more to my irish heritage desite the fact i was born in the U.S.

  • Most people in Eire would call you a plastic paddy. You don't know what they've been through.

  • That is true i wont deny that cuz i dont.

  • We are watching what has become the spectacular collapse of the capitalist apparatus, fundamental cracks are developing in there structures. Whilst their hideous system is in perpetual crisis, it is not dead. Its components with fight desperately to defend the structure of privilege, that has kept us down and repressed for hundreds of years.

  • Ok but what are you talking about the working class?

  • yes of course

  • seriously? you watch a live music video and you come up with that?

    Thank god youtube is a forum for all the moron philosophers/economists out there.

    Douche bag.

  • I make a comment about someone elses comment, and you call me a douche bag? That's fair.

  • Ick: The US is a mixed economy, but the socialist aspect relates solely to the state. It is STATE socialist if it's socialist at all; profit is privatized, risk is socialized. The wealthy gain from whatever socialistic machinations are introduced. They always have. And they are now. It's capitalism for the poor folk and "we'll-save-you" socialism for the rich. That's the problem.

  • some people here need anger management lol good song good band

  • lol every dropkick murphies page is people argueing about whether there irish or not. and pimpnamedCHAMBO makes a fair point. It's Celtic/Irish Folk Punk Rock. It's whats called a musical genre fusion, or just Fusion. eg Metallica's S&M album : Metal & Classical

  • who gives a fuck if there irish or not? its good music aint it

  • thank you

  • lol if you say theres always arguing and fighting then they're defiently Irish.

  • fuck u coolio

  • lol u all got defencesive when he called em micks... inwhich they are so stfu and listen to their musik... and i am irish and dont give a fuck

  • Graaaaaaaaaaaaaaande grande!!!

  • Who cares? enjoy the vid

  • how do you know your 100% irish, you dont know if your grams was a whore you might be part scotish, german or worse you might be part british scumbag

  • i know my history u lil bitch i'm fuckin irish an i'll take ye anyday 2 fuckin prove it

  • keep talkin you fuckin mutt, why are you listening to american music, they are not from ireland doesn't that mean its not "real" irish music, ya cunt

  • ye little fuckin eejit u never listen 2 any other type of music do ye...it still derives from irish music, sorry is derives 2 big a word for ye?

  • derives? Too big of a word, maybe there, not here in the states we have an education system, thats why we use full words and not letters in place of them (i.e. u for you, 2 for to,too, and two) listen you illiterate bitch i dont care what it derives from, go get a dictionary talk to your friends get a get insult, count to ten and shove it up your ass, mainly because im not goingto argue with you anymore, fighting on the internet is like the special olympics even if you win your still retarded

  • you realise that makes you retarded too right?

  • did you mean realize you stupid dirtball

  • *facepalm* no you illiterate twat, i did not. quit butchering my language.

  • *face palm* no, you illiterate twat, I did not. Quit butchering my language. this is the correct spelling and grammer go to school asshole

  • damn and blast you've tricked me into becoming as moronic as you.

  • actually, it should be "*face palm* no, you illiterate twat, I did not. Quit butchering my language. this is the correct spelling and grammer, go to school asshole. You forgot the comma after grammer and the punctuation after asshole

  • shut the fuck up

    you dumb fuck i made that comment a month ago, It took you that long to figure that out, you were most likely the slowest kid in your school. right, huh dirtball

  • no, no it didn't. I just saw the comment a week ago and replied to it a few seconds later.

  • Rich, considering when I read your post I had to read over it a few times before it made sense, because your lack of grammar skills made it ambiguous.

    And on a side note: Realise is spelled 'REALISE' outside of the U.S.A.

  • thealuminati,

    ur not 100% scottish

    being born in scotland doesnt make u scotish

    if a polish woman was pregnat and went to nigeria and then here baby was born, then went back to poland the child is in no way nigerian (unless the father was nigerian)

    therefore ur a cock

  • actually, in pretty much most countries, if your born there, that makes you from there, pretty much only here in america do we have this dumb shit ideal that were from other places, I'm an american, as much as it pains me to call myself one, not french-irish as my family heritage points to.

  • listen to the music and stop talking shite

  • I wanna go to DKM in another country and say, fuck you, they are from Boston, :p, my dreams are small :D

  • well boys if you live in america and want to claim somthing else, Thats bad ass... I dont see any other country/NATO as big as the United States..... Be proud or Move

  • thealuminati, you're 100% Scottish and you're 100% wrong. People of Irish descent in America are held in great esteem in Ireland. There is even an article in the constitution acknowledging their immense contribution to the making of modern Ireland. The term 'plastic paddy' is rarely used and only ever by 100% idiots.

  • look i am irish, 100% born and bred irish my blood is green, i've never heard the term plastic paddy being used and i have no problem with americans who are proud of their irish heritage...but they're not irish, only living in ireland in the irish way makes u irish...sorry

  • Too true, I'm getting sick of all these Americans thinkin they're so hard because their great grandmother's dog came from an irish gypsy! If you don't live in Ireland or weren't born there, simple as. And I don't get why everyone wants to be Irish so much, it isn't the greatest place to be in all honesty.

  • Grow up kid, its not as if they are running around naked yelling "IM IRISH!" to get attention, their MUSIC that is inspired by Irish folk and combined with punk rock, to create this kind of sound.

    To base your "taste" on some sort of ideology is just stupid, rape your prejudices in the eye and you will enjoy everything so much more.

    If you on the other hand simply dont like this kind of music because of its sounds, Ive got no right to tell you what to think or do since that is your taste.

  • I am Irish 3/4 of my heritage is Irish, I didnt choose to be born in the United States.

  • dude come on northsky dont you think we're on your side and all? jeez dude

  • 'Minorities set to be US majority', from the BBC website (Google it)

    "White people of European descent will no longer make up a majority of the US population by the year 2042 - eight years sooner than previous estimates.

    The US Census Bureau's latest projections are based on birth, death and current immigration rates.

    Officials had previously projected that this change would happen in 2050."

  • sad aint it

  • Yeah, yeah, yeah, hate the British. It's so easy to do. Pity most people don't have a good enough reason. Move on, stop thinking about the past.

  • Theres a perfectly god reason to hate the bloody Brits, They still hold most of an Irish province as there own. When they give it back, maybe we'll talk about not hating them.

  • if it was up to me, i would give the land back in a heartbeat.

    Oh, and its easy to hate those in power, the weaker ones always look innocent until its there turn to be greedy.

  • northsky, I'm irish too (100% by birth) and nothing makes me sicker than idiots like you disrespecting fellow Irish people because they weren't born in Ireland. Some of the most obnoxious assholes that ever lived were born in Ireland, the Duke of Wellington for one, and I reckon you're right up there with him. With songs like this and many others, Dropkick Murphys make me proud to be Irish.

  • why the fuck does it show that you are from the UK? Your probably some English wanker who wishes he was Irish.

    Póg mo thóin

  • come on m8 they wudve be born in ireland if their ancestors werent forced out of ireland by the english

  • Awesome Band

    Punk and skins. Unity for fucking life.

  • wow alboy93 are u high? dropkick murphys owns

  • hahahahahaha... "The suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuun will shine for yooooooooooooooooou"

  • S.H.A.R.P.!!!!

  • Are Irish "Scots" Scots? Because you're dad's Irish isn't he, scotborn? Some people might therefore question the authenticity of your Scottishness.

  • scotland has irvine welsh and fuck all. i can see why you are the fucking idiot that you are. you were bred by wankers you fucking fuck.

  • if you dont like it why you searching for it? second vid I've found you on. Dont like it then dont listen to it instead of posting insulting comments. Simple.

  • I agree. I can't stand when I find videos I like but then there are the tools leaving negative comments. I don't llok for shit I don't like just to tell people it sucks, like that dude.

  • no shit there scottish americans!! most white americans are of english,scott,irish decent!! we are a country of immigrants!! go to a dkm concert and tell these skins there not irish or scottish americans! and youd get your head kicked in!

  • HEY scotborn if u haven't noticed DKM is a IRISH FOLK ROCK BAND SO STFU will U!??? also DKM RULE THE WORLD!!!!

  • Well, Im an Aussie. And I gotta tell ya, these guys rock. Guess I must be stupid too. And scotborn, youre calling Americans STUPID for their "STUPID ignorant, disregard of other cultures.", but you hate all Scots!? You obviously have no regard for your own culture! So look in the mirror before you start accusing others. IDIOT!!

  • If it was not for the workingclass there would be no rich. That is who they are representing, the working class because they are working class even though they have money now. They worked hard for it.

  • how do you know

  • DM i socsialistis and wrote this song to the Workingclass, the Rich have always used the workingclass to kill for them, work for them and build for them, The rich can kill eachother and dont let the workingclass do it for them.

  • who the fuck cares  this song is great

  • I wish the quality was a little better (sigh)

  • You should pick up the On the Road with the Dropkick Murphys DVD.

  • AMERICA

  • jesus christ people, your arguing politics on the message board of a punk rock band's video

  • How the fuck did this argument even start anyway?

    WHO ARGUES THROUGHT YOUTUBE COMMENTS!?!?!

  • Do any of you actually know what being working class or a worker is about??? It aint about fashion or any of that, its about being EXPLOITED, straight up. I dont see the Dropkick Murphys talking about capitalist exploitation or anything. Neither are any of you.

  • What are you talking about. Thats half what this song is about. they're talking about how working class always gets the shit end off the stick. and thats not what being working class is about. when someones working class it means they actually work for what they get paid. and do manual labour. they didnt just create a whole group for society to exploit and call them working class. they made working class and through the years decided it would be a good idea to kick them while they're down.

  • We are not compensated fully for what we get paid, trust me. Under capitalism, the pay that we receive in wages is earned in half of our shift, or less. So whats the other half of the shift for you ask? For profit. Therefore, one half of our working time for subsistence, the other for profit for the CEO. This is the way its always been. Therefore, its exploitation.

  • I meant to say in my previous comment, that we are not compensated fully for the work we do. Sorry about that. Hope you understand me.

  • I understand you pretty well. Of course employers don't give us (the workers) 100% of the money we earn the company with our labor. If they did they would have no money left for other operating expenses (rent, fuel, taxes, insurance, security, and yes... Something for the shareholders who make it all possible). People who own thier own biz get 100% but they take a chance of failure/bankruptcy, most of us take our portion and relish the job security and lack of responsibilty.

  • So you think it all equals out in terms of responsibility, even though, as obscure as it is, theyre exploiting all working class people? You think just because a CEO takes a risk, its fair for them to compensate theirselves with a 300% pay raise over a 10 decade span, while the worker earns minimun wage.

  • CEO's don't set thier own earnings (except in a very limited sence). Board of Directores set CEO earnings. The CEO's will often get paid in stock options (partially or fully) so that if the stock of the company rises, they make more money, but so does everyone who own stock in the company, so, yeah, that's fair.

  • Either way, you still agree with the fact that through the exploitation of the masses of workers throughout the world, its ok for the CEO's to be compensated 300 times more than the ordinary person, for the work that we do, for the profit that we accumulate??? The point is that the CEO doesnt do anything but sit in their high rise office and dictate. When their "risks" fail, they run off with all the profit, while the company shuts down and workers are cast out on the street. Thats not fair.

  • What I agree with is that without the companies, the workers wouldn't be able to make thier house payment. The companies are ran by CEO's who are compensated by Boards of Directors. If the BoD's give the CEO's too much money, the company isn't profitable and it goes under. If they give too little, you get bad CEO's and the company goes under. Picking the right balance is where the danger is at.

  • hahahaha, Bill Gates is worth more than probably the GDP of all of the poorest third world countries combined, yet Microsoft is still very profitable, whats ur point?

  • M$ is still profitable because we keep buying thier stuff. Nobody puts a gun to our heads and makes us buy thier stuff. And if someone makes a successful buisness, good for him. If you made a successful buisness, good for you... and if you employ a few hundred people with good jobs, even better. The point in BG having alot of money is it creates alot of jobs.

  • LOL. Oh my god. Buddy, we do literally have guns to our heads to buy their stuff. Number one, WE NEED TO SURVIVE. In order to do that, we have to buy the means of subsistence, and that only comes in the form of capitalist production in this society, therefore were forced to buy corporate commodities. I can see how youre completly misinformed on the subject, therefore i will end this discussion.

  • If you literally have a gun to your head when you buy groceries you should call 911. If someone held a gun to your head when you bought the PC you are using to surf the net you live in a very strange land. Yes, we buy capitalist production because capitalists make the best products, the most efficently.

  • are you familiar with the way we use the word "literally" in english? To quote the great Inigo Montoya 'you use that word... I do not think it means what you think it means.' BTW, we were talking about Microsoft and bill gates... Nobody NEEDs MS products to survive... you retard.

  • Jack, I think its funny to hear people like "prolitariate" espouse communism only to acknowledge it has never flourished. Why hasn't it? Because it is idealistic and not readily put into practical application. The cream will rise.

  • Yep, what they just don't understand is that under modern capitalism the revolution will never come. The "oppressed masses" are much to worried about having the big screen TV b4 the super bowl than they are about how much the CEO of thier company makes.

  • Granted, the capitalistic masses may have some unhealthy priorities, but they do have more freedom of choice, and exponentially greater opportunity for success than they'd have in a communist country.

  • Sad, but true, Jack. To Ken, Al, and company: keep singing worker and labor songs.  You guys rock!

  • Homei, that "class warefare" marxist dielect talk is very 20th Century and is on the ash heap of history. Get a job, get a 401K, buy some stocks cause the "revolution" came and went and it didn't work. Stop whineing about how the capitolists exploit labor because the fact is... Labor has it pretty good. They got a car, a home, cable tv and high speed internet.

  • How are you going to claim that you respect the music of the Dropkick Murphys, yet repudiate everything their message relates to. If you listen to the song, it says "Were the first ones to die" meaning, imperialist wars that only working class people fight to make capitalists richer. Therefore, its not just about material possessions, but about exploitation, war, discrimination, etc. And i dont know where ur from, but the majority of us here dont have homes and cars and all that shit.

  • Perhaps we are in diffrent places. In america over 50% of all households own stock in some company, the army is 100% voulenteer and working class people are working really hard to become rich people as soon as they can.

  • Do they all become rich? NO. And whats your point about owning stock in a company? big deal.

  • DO they all become rich? No, but they are all trying. The point of owning stocks in the company are... if it is good for the company, it is good for the sharehoulders. And that is a good deal for everyone.
