[fordfan7689]

It is an anti war song about how the Irish were used in the East Indian Trading company and during the 19th Century when the British were fighting the Napoleonic Wars they dispatched soldiers to Sri Lanka (Isle of Cylon) in order to keep the island for their tea trades. It was about those from County Kildare returning home from fighting for the British with war injuries.

@peerse1 hahahah lol let's kill some long beards

[fallen4ng31]

@daddy280690 @kultangel2 - This song and variants of it have been around for more than 100 years before we were born. It's an old civil war tune.

[kultangel2]

Anyone else realize the theme rips off "The ants go marching one by one" ?

[daddy280690]

@kultangel2 its not a ripoff since Dropkick Murphys made this song 1st

[naomheanna]

@kultangel2 DUUUUUUUUUUUGHHHHHHHH!!!!!

[inyourcup831]

@kultangel2 It was an irish song before anything else, the "ants go marching' and the American "when johnny come marching home" are remakes of the Irish version.

[RileyBlahBlah]

LIKE-A-THOUSAND-TIMES

[RileyBlahBlah]

LOVE THIS SONG! MY FRIEND SHOWED ME THIS AND I LOVED IT! :O

[orionbre]

@RileyBlahBlah

sounds gayish

[RileyBlahBlah]

@orionbre "Gay" means homosexual. This song is NOT homosexual. If your going to use the word, please use it correctly. Thank you. :)

[lastninja5]

@RileyBlahBlah it also means happy and your happy when you smile and this song makes me smile cuz of the beat so i guess it is gayish

[orionbre]

@RileyBlahBlah

no, no you totally misunderstood me. song is not gayish, it is anti-war song. your comment is gayish. and by gayish I don't mean explicitly gay, but more platonic, latently gay.

[RileyBlahBlah]

@orionbre ? hum....okay..?

[MrTurok999]

@RileyBlahBlah he mean theres two types of gay happy gay and homosexual gay theres two meanings

[boertjeh90]

6 people hardly knew the like button :P

[xAirFirex]

[studioMAXIMO]

[simonnnnnnn1994]

[undercoveractor]

It's a "The Ants Go Marching" remix, cool.

[Phoenix4312]

@undercoveractor no, it's their version of a trad. Irish folk song. The Ants go marching in had nothing to do with this....

[Louzaki]

repeat-repeat-repeat-repeat !!!!!!  *GA*MA*TO*

[handbalbeuker]

this song makes you so damn happy =D

* Johnny i hardle knew ya *

[celticfairie333]

[taiko729]

why did 5 people dislike this. this is a perfect video in every way shape and form

[deadpoolshakk]

The best song i have ever heard!!!!!!! I want this to be played at my funeral and i will change my name to Johny that is how awesome this song is!!!!!!!!!

[XxCronikxTrad39xX]

This song makes me want to fight till the death in a war.....

[KublaKhan1797]

Too bad they didn't stick to the real version, it's much more powerful in my opinion. They (almost) turned an anti-war song into a pro-war song.

[Shayupi]

At first I didn't like now I do~ who agrees?

[GamersMinion]

@Shayupi hmm aperantly no one.....i think you're the only one that didnt like it from the beging =)

[ruthlesace]

[7PurpleElephants]

Hurroo!

[LuisSyaoran]

Donde aquel Hurroo Hurroo se convierte en un grito de lamento y donde se da la bienvenida a un doliente proveniente de la guerra que no quiere otra cosa mas que morir.

Hurroo Hurroo, Es lo único que los mercenarios, ladrones, Terroristas y las malas personas dejan en todos y cada uno de nuestros corazones... Hurroo Hurrooo.

Las guerras nunca cesarán y siempre existirán combatientes buenos y malos..

[xXAnDKaTReTuRnSXx]

[mehere2011]

@mixers666

it´s a great song but that isn t the original song/text...it was not only an anti-war song, but a song against England!!! they took irish kids to fight for them in ceylon and that´s why they the song has a strong meaning to the IRA.

They're rolling out the guns again, hurroo, hurroo
