Hey it's that weird cute girl with the cute little voice again!

I agree with you, but people with hate in their heart irritate me.

Honestly everyone, all this native american crap was years ago. You need to let things go.

0:30 is when they start singing properly :)

Oh really Donegal Ray, you hate all 280 million Americans except for Native Americans. What you so bowed up for? That's a lot of hate brother. Yeah we have "Plastic Paddies" over here, but you have skanger yobs in Ireland. There is good and bad in every culture. You need to take the stick out of your butt and stop painting with such a broad brush.

On the male side of things a Walker was anyone who worked as watchman for an estate. So at some point someone in that family was basically Night Security who yelled "GET THEE DOWN! GET THEE DOWN ON YON GROUND NOW! OR I SHALL MACE THEE!" LOL

There's not a Gael worth his weight, who doesn't identify with the native Indian Americans! They are the native People who YOU have robbed of everything!
The English were bad, but even they gave the Native Americans Rights over their own lands, that you fuckers had to deprive them of! I hate Americans, except the amazing native Peoples, not you hideous, Plastic Paddies that embarass at every turn!

@ongawesgone Because they are daft?
How'd I miss this one from the Highland Sessions? Sweeeet! Thanks again Donegal, Tomscotland, etc, who have put these sessions on YouTube for us to delightfully discover over here on t'other side of The Pond.

Waulking is the name given to the process of making tweed cloth (spun and woven out of wool) waterproof by shrinking the fibers via the friction created by beating the cloth on a specific kind of board after the cloth was coated with a "Mixture." Took about 3-4 hours, depending on length of the cloth.
