[john261948]

@MegaDabi The Irish have a name for nitwits like you EEJIT

[JohnJoe25]

The Church in Ireland has done some terrible things, but the people of Ireland have gotten much more selfish since its demise.

[josparkes1]

Love this song, so beautiful !

[juanitaxoxo]

R.I.P Kathleen a true rebel

[reyes3277]

God bless you Kathleen. Your beautiful voice still goes on.

[bigdex123]

what about a statue for kathleen a true patriot i for one would work for this wwithout kathleen and the flying column we would have had very dark days in the 70s i stand up and salute kathleen seamus and the rest of the boys god bless you

[pistolPeteIrela]

i agree with the memorial to Kathleen...

Great voice...so powerful and passionate

[Stevewalsh2009]

great song

[TurboSpaghettiRobot]

I'm not well informed about this, but what's the popular opinion in Northern Ireland about unification? I mean if they really want it then that would be the best justification. If they don't want unification then it'll probably not happen until they want to.

[ThePaul1888]

[lugh100]

Is there a memorial to Kathleen in Belfast? If not, why not? I for one would contribute.

[herebesmewa]

Totally agree with you lugh100...i grew up listening to kathleen largey's records, what a voice she had!!!

[celticloon123]

i have to disagree with rayyocum to be Irish is to be proud of where you are from and respect those who have fallen for Ireland to be Irish is to be Irish from the heart and soul not because of religion Eireann go brach

[rayyocum]

Very Good! Listen to Kathleen sing Sniper's Promise!

Erin Go Bragh!

[imatim1888]

i grew up on the falls road in belfast listening to kathleen,then had the plesure meeting her at an irish northern aid dance at the towerview ball room in new york,what a voice a true rebel .rip kathleen,tiocfaidh ar la

[55august]

Those who sold out the patriot game are now living the high life in Stormont.

Shame on them.

[nallyterrace]

"There is no surer way to destroy the Northern Irish state than from within its own government"

Peter Robinson DUP, now the First Minister of Northern Ireland.

[55august]

There is no better way to sustain the Northern State than republicans acting like croppy boys for for their unionist masters.

[nallyterrace]

And what way would you have it? Bombs? Guns?

That's all brilliant isn't it......until you're the one walking behind the coffin of your mother or father or brother or sister or friend. What use is freedom when we would deny our own people the happiness brought about by their loved ones?

The United Ireland is my goal too, but not at such a cost.

[Woody053]

Can anyone upload the version of this song from The Wolfe Tones??

[SNIPER5000XRETURNS]

God Bless you kathleen you were the True Patriot

May Ireland be united and free, our day will come.

[ElRancholo2]

[joeygsmom]

I never thought Id say this, but this version is just as beautiful as Luke Kellys.

Wishing peace to your country in 2009

[AllxIxAm]

proud to be irish

Proud to be Catholic

[yuck89]

Proud of the Catholic church which hates Republicans and actively supported Ireland's fascists? Fuck them. Victory to the People.

[lreland1]

Not only Ireland's fascists but everywhere else. Provided a door into safe-house Ireland for some of the worst Nazi war criminals whilst (pressurising govt to) refusing entry to Jewish refugees.

[RepublicOf32]

@lreland1

Well, just look at what those 'Jewish' refugees ar doing in Palestine at the minute.

They do not practice Judaism, they are zionists commiting genocide and are funded by the US.

I do not agree with fascism, however, those 'people' are fucking disgusting.

[AllxIxAm]

sorry when did i ask for you views? I only stated mine. I do NOT need yet another fight over this.

[yuck89]

Well don't bring religion into a Republican video then soppy bollocks. Toddle on.

[RPenta]

Look you Irish twit--I have issues with the Church too--when you are cursing her you are cursing Jesus; ok, Yukkie?

[ThePaul1888]

[RPenta]

ah, put down your crack pipe and read what I said: I think she is great and yuck is a Big Yuck?

[alicantona]

[sniper500x]

Thank You Ireland1.

Kathleen's Family and Friend's must be so Proud of what you have done here, God will have Granted this Angel a Special Place in Heaven.

[Ismaithsin]

Hi there, as the guitarist who backed up Kathleen all those years ago, thanks so much for your comment. Her daughters contacted me and were so proud that their mum can now be heard on You Tube. So I'll join you in thanking Ireland1. Adh Mor. Tony (The Flying Column)

[sniper500x]

It is always a pleasure to leave positive comments on Irelands Finest take care Tony.

My regards to her daughters I am sure they are very proud that she lives on through her songs Godbless.

[Ismaithsin]

Hi there, could'nt have put it better, it's great that a new generation can listen to her singing. She was a lovely person and a true patriot and I have great memories of all the years we played together. Adh mor.

[quakermaas]

"A Sniper Promise"...i am looking for a song i heard many years ago..did kathleen do a version of this song ?

[lreland1]

yeah, it's on my channel.

[Monadnonck]

A good job.

[mammutly]

I'm sorry, but in my opinion this is just awful. It is a twee rendition of what was and is a heartfelt lyric.

[ElRancholo2]

Yeah, but your just a British asshole that came here to talk crap. This is a great rendition of a great song.

[michellem162]

does any1 kno were a cld get her singing a snipers promise

[lreland1]

sinnfeinbookshop dot com.  The album is called the Price of Justice.

[lreland1]

oh and forgot, I have it uploaded. :)

[Ismaithsin]

After backing Kathleen on guitar for all those years, I'm so pleased to see all the songs and the great comments on Ireland1. Not only was she a great singer and a lovely person, she was a true patriot and her daughters can be so proud of her today knowing that she has not been forgotten. Thanks to Ireland1 and all your great comments. (Tony, The Flying Column)

[lreland1]

Thanks Tony. When I joined I was suprised that no Flying Column songs were available. Listening to Kathleen for the first time is like being given a gift you always wanted, a bit like the first time you get to hear the great Luke Kelly. I know that may sound stupid to some, but I reckon a lot of people will agree. She was truely something special.

[Ismaithsin]

I know exactly what you are saying and I agree, and going by the comments it seems a lot of people are doing the same. It was an honour for me to know and accompany her. I was so happy when I received a message from her daughters saying that they were delighted that their mum was on You Tube. Thanks again. (Tony,The Flying Column)

[joeygsmom]

I totally agree, hearing these songs the first time is a kind of awakening. She is still missed, that much is clear... thank you for posting, without people like you most of us never would have heard any of these fantasitc voices!

[Xallyman]

Beautiful, goose bumps, almost a tear!
