Please Note: Gay is a synonym for homosexual as well as HAPPY. Obviously the person who made this video doesn't know it, but READ THIS BEFORE POSTING comments about the men kissing. Thanks.
You are very blinkered. A period song but the pictures have got jumbled. Gay in 1914 - 18 had nothing to do with homosexuality as you suggest. Read a bit more before posting a such personal statement as this.
@JunglistJeff I found that rather offensive myself. As a self respecting straight Canadian (member of the Commonwealth), I think that that picture was certainly not necessary. They should have put a picture corresponding to the meaning of it during the time. "Gay" was used and is defined as "happiness."
@JunglistJeff *bops* I don't think that picture's appropriate either, but I'd still have some respect for you if you'd just ended it at the first sentence.
my uncle was a danish freedom fighter during ww2, he is dead now but he have told me tons of stories. He saved jews by sailing them to sweeden, executed gestapo people, smugled weapons, sabotaged railroads, freed british pilots who had been shot down and fought the germans along with the rest of the freedom fighters during the last days of the war.
It's not disrespectful, it's am anti war song. The play it was written for was supposed to point out how stupid it is to have war in the beginning. These songs shouldn;t bolster british pride, and any offence is caused by the war. It was a stupid idea...
Fear GOD who hath power to cast you into HELL(Luke 12:5)! Fear God and depart from evil(Proverbs 3:7)! God is ANGRY with the wicked everyday(Psalm 7:11)! Jesus Christ is the WAY, the TRUTH, and the LIFE, there is NO OTHER WAY to be saved(John 14:6)! For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved(John 3:17)! TURN FROM YOUR SINS AND SUBMIT 2 THE LORDSHIP OF JESUS CHRIST NOW! DON'T BOAST OF HAVING TOMORROW! Proverbs 27:1
Your wrong, it is about Tipperary, Ireland, but it is a British music hall and marching song written by Jack Judge in 1912, and Judge was an Englishman born and bred in Worcestershire. His Grandparents were from Tipperary, and he made it for them.
The Connaught rangers made it world famous by singing it whilst they marched to war in 1914.
After that everyone sung it, but its an English song.
If his gradparents came from Ireland, then that means that at least one of his parents were Irish also. Which would make him at least half Irish. If you did some research I think you will find he regarded himself Irish.......!
You dont know what your talking about, so dont even pretend, his grandparents although born in Tipperary moved to England, and Jack Judge was born in England, and the song was a tribute to his grandparents.
And where did you hear that he regarded himself Irish? Dont tell me, your brothers mate knows someone that told you.
Regarded himself Irish! If id had a penny for every time ive heard that.
People forget when they hear this song,that the Irish who longed for independence from British,were conscripted by the British not the Irish.Bit like Canada being at war and then conscripting British people to fight for them.
You really ought to learn some basic facts the Irish were NEVER conscripted by the British not even in Northern Ireland in WW2. It was a bill (never enforced)l to introduce conscription in 1918 that gave the independence movement a boost.
The Irish from Ireland in WW1 were all volunteers and were the largest contingent Ireland ever sent to war.
Nothing like Canada as Ireland had been part of the UK of England, Scotland, Wales & Ireland for over 100 years.
@davidglow3 wow, the fucking brits got us to fight for them....excuse me they treat us very low.Us Canadians did Better then any FUCKING OTHER COUNTRY out there to get back Our Freedom from the british common wealth( sadly we are still with them).We were the only Country to volunteer our soilders to fight for a cause that was not are own.Don't you or anybody else ever smack talk US Canadians or we'll put you back into place fast and easy.Have yourselve a fine night.
No disrespect to our proud northern neighbor. We love you up there. :)
But us Americans was the first to win independance in a war from Britain. The loss of the 13 colonies brought about the collapse of the "British Empire" in the long run. It showed they were vulnerable
America does not treat you low, you are our brothers bore from Britains womb who found their own identity, just as we have.
Be proud of your roots, rather than scorning them, sir.
My grandfather fought in WW2, along the British, even though he was Greek. In his last few days, before he died of Alzheimer's, this was the only thing he sang. God bless him, and everyone who fought for the right thing in that war.
My grandpa is Soviet WW2 veteran, participant of May 9th 1945 parade on the Red Square, if you know what I mean, and it's his favourite song along with "Coming in on a wing and the prayer" (Original, English version, of course). Hi's very bad mentally now too, but he sings these two foreign songs perfectly
goodbye Piccadilly so long Lester Square its a long long way to Tipperary but my hearts right there.....it makes me feel like i should follow my roots and move there even though i dont know much about the place other than its in Ireland. jk
i agree this video is a bit of a shame to our society but unfortunatly in this world we have people who dont respect others, but still a great song shame about some of the video
Too right! My great-great grandfather was killed in action in the march of 1918. This video is a sickening disgrace, and what makes it worse, is you had two men kissing *vomits*. I hope that if you do a remake of this vid, you will use more appropriate actors and show some respect to the people who fell for what they thought was a good cause and their country.
oh shut up tosser, so what if men kiss, ergh old fashioned no good cunt is what u are, i am in the army so dont do any comments back that say what would u know about war and respect for the country u dickhead, i hope ur children r gay u should learn to respect others,
Shame on John McCormack! What pain and suffering did the British army inflict on the people of Tipperary and the rest of Ireland,between the years of 1916 and 1922? McCormack the west Brit! Oh Yes! lets all have a laugh at the Irish,lets all sing,its a long way to Tipperary! What, old boy!
I agree with mark042683; Shame on you mocking this song and all the people who fought in both wars!!! You have not the faintest idea about these issues. You must show consideration for old british soldiers; without their sacrifice heedless people like you would be singing Horst Wessel every morning (and I fought against british soldiers but they deserve my consideration as professionals, beyond their government actions).
ummm you could still remember the war without having been born anywhere around that time, 11th november?? everyone remembers you fucking arrogant bellend he was making a nice gesture which you had to ruin, fucking cunt
lOVE THAT LAST PANEL. Of course I don't remember WWI (wasn't born yet) but my dad used to sing this song to us. I do remember WWII and it is very upsetting that there are those who make fun of soldiers who fought and died in those wars. Don't they realize that if the Allies would not have defeated Germany, they would not be able to post their silly inane comments? May God forgive them.
It´s a great song. First time I have heard it where on the movie "Das Boot DC", vor a long time on vhs. Last week i remamber the song, dont now the name, and wonts to now the fucking Name but can´t remebmer.
Estoy leyendo de que esta canción fue la primera transmitida por radio en Chile en una emisión experimental. Pertenece a las fuerzas británicas en la primera guerra mundial. Su elección como tema para esta transmisión demuestra el estrecho vínculo que ha unido siempre a la Gran Bretaña con Chile, para bien y para mal.
Because there is a lyric in the song "where everyone was 'gay'."
Of course, no one mentioned that the word gay has been a synonym for "happy" in the English language for 1,000 years...and only recently implies that someone is queer.
I live in the US and you're right we do have two veterans of WWI living here, however one of them is actually Canadian and fought between 1916-1918. The other is an American, Frank Buckles, and he volunteered at I believe the age of 15 or 16, which is absurd, but he shows up on the news every once in a while and for a 107 year old he is doing quite well.
Oh YouTube, I sometimes wonder why I still read these comments. What's next? Will I get a MySpace account, Facebook, or even *gasp* Bebo. No, I won't fall quite THAT low, but you get my point.
gay means happy in this song, go buy a fucking dictionary if you do not belive me, over the years since this songs recording, 1915, slang has RUINED the english
the streets were paved with gold SO EVERY ONE WAS HAPPY!, YA KNOW,GLAD WITH THEIR LIVES!
Hey, I'm glad you were so intellectual about this, that I know. It does mean happy, they were happy due to the fact that the streets were so gloriously paved with precious gold. Thank you, this film is made purely out of the intent to be humorous and contains elements of parody. Thank you for your concern.
I understand your feelings towards it, mate but slang has not, in any way, ruined the language. that is such an over dramatic, sensationalist statement. Slang has only enriched the language. Whether you like certain words or hate them, the language is flexible enough that words are constantly added or modified. You have the opportunity to use words or ignore them, that can only be a good thing and if you think the language is ruined, it's up to you to flourish your own vocabulary.
peanutbrain, is it because you had a hard time in the western desert fighting Rommel, or as i suspect, that your a gormless moron who needs educating. All you have done is embarrass yourself.
blar blar blar show respect wil ya man,,,english,,,irish,,,welsh,,,scotish gave thier lives for us to live like we do,i dont think the ira are done yet,,,but god help ya ,,,we will get ya cowards
my grate grandad was in both wars and year after the world war 2 end we lost him i did not now him but hurt alot of bout him

why there there those fags kissing
agernader 3 years ago
Because there is a lyric in the song "where everyone was 'gay'."
Of course, no one mentioned that the word gay has been a synonym for "happy" in the English language for 1,000 years...and only recently implies that someone is queer.

I live in the US and you're right we do have two veterans of WWI living here, however one of them is actually Canadian and fought between 1916-1918. The other is an American, Frank Buckles, and he volunteered at I believe the age of 15 or 16, which is absurd, but he shows up on the news every once in a while and for a 107 year old he is doing quite well.

Oh YouTube, I sometimes wonder why I still read these comments. What's next? Will I get a MySpace account, Facebook, or even *gasp* Bebo. No, I won't fall quite THAT low, but you get my point.

gay means happy in this song, go buy a fucking dictionary if you do not belive me, over the years since this songs recording, 1915, slang has RUINED the english
the streets were paved with gold SO EVERY ONE WAS HAPPY!, YA KNOW,GLAD WITH THEIR LIVES!

Hey, I'm glad you were so intellectual about this, that I know. It does mean happy, they were happy due to the fact that the streets were so gloriously paved with precious gold. Thank you, this film is made purely out of the intent to be humorous and contains elements of parody. Thank you for your concern.

I understand your feelings towards it, mate but slang has not, in any way, ruined the language. that is such an over dramatic, sensationalist statement. Slang has only enriched the language. Whether you like certain words or hate them, the language is flexible enough that words are constantly added or modified. You have the opportunity to use words or ignore them, that can only be a good thing and if you think the language is ruined, it's up to you to flourish your own vocabulary.
