yep. has to be the best gaa song ever. pity poor oul wexford cant do it like they do on the discovery channel! up the yellow bellies and vinegar hill and liam dunne now too! best of luck to ye lads.
the greatest hurling song ever sung and the best thing is every county in ireland has to admit it and admire fair play wild swans ledges!!!!!!! UP WEXFORD!!!!!!!
i was just born when they won and i got to sit in the cup, my family is from bunclody nd i have seen pictures of the week that they won and it is unreall :D
HERE WE GO !, Damien Fitzhenry, Ger Cushe, Sean Flood, Rod Guiney, Liam Dunne, Colm Kehoe, Billy Byrne, Martin Storey, John O'Connor, Tom Dempsey, George O'Connor, Adrian Fenlon AND LARRY O'GORMAN, Rory McCarthy, Larry Murphy, Gary Laffan, Eamonn Scallan, Dave Guiney, Declan Ruth, Jim Byrne, Shane Carley, Paul Finn, are the All Ireland team, and the man who led the team his name is LIAM GRIFFIN !!!!!!!, BEAT THAT, BEST GAA SONG EVER !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
No contest. This is the greatest GAA song ever. I remember in 96 when the boys played it over and over again in the few days after the All-Ireland - and they stayed true to the original words (apart from beefing up Larry O's point from 200 yards!) every time. A great year, a great manager (a true GAA legend), and a magnificent, appropriate, ambitious song.
This beats Jedward and Crystal Swing any day. Why don't we send these guys over to X Factor and Ellen De Generess. These guys are actually singing about something to do with our culture not fucking 'ghostbuster' and gansta rap impressions or american country music and a drink that comes from Mexico!!!
my mothers froms fern and i allways remember been in holidays in galways and my jump up on a pub table for the hurling and every galway fan got up and danced with her...ah how i miss them days...
Its a F****n Brilliant song...Thats my brother Paul singin with Brendan...I Doubt we will ever see the likes of 96 season again..But the F****n worst part is.. I was in Los Angeles when all the craic was goin on.For F**k Sakeeeee!! ..Go ooon Ya Yella Bellies
Im from Tipp but I remember been at the final in 96 as me brother was playing minor v Galway and that was a draw.me mam from limerick was crying as limerick lost.how we hated limerick!!!
wexford had finally beaten kilkenny and we went on our holidays to a camping site in france, and where were our neighbours from? kilkenny! so we were playing this song the whole time! lol
let's hear purple and gold please, i'm sick of just hearing dermot from big brother all the time. someone must have it. Please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! oh by the way make sure it's goodish quality.
i luv blak vale brides nd all but this is my fave song!

I love these guys. Saw them in Munich in 1999 when they called themselves "The Swans", opening for Mike & the Mechanics.
Never have I seen an opening act being received as well as The Swans.
What a pity they don't make music together anymore.
I loved them very much and their album "Photographs & Letters" is still on my playlist after all these years.
Thank you for the memories Brandon and Paul!
Love you!
