When you had Sinn Fein IRA to the lyrics then it is turned into a terrorist song.

It was a terrible time for the innocent victims who had no choice in the matter, when they starved, and ships full of food left Ireland.I don't know a great deal about all the facts, but what I have read makes me so sad. Poem ( I write a bit) The children of Ireland whose rights were denied Should never have suffered,should never have died The callous indifferent government dross Take the blame, and the shame for the terrible loss.

A wonderful song but I couldn't hear the words. I think I'll listen to Paddy Reilly, sing it.

Michael of Athenry was another victim of criminal capitalist gangsters and their political whores. Bleed the poor to death and then punish him when he stands up for himself. The capitalists got rich during the famine, while some got a free trip to Botany Bay.

Hang on a minute.The fields of athenry is not a terrorist song,at least no more so than god save the queen or the french national anthem for example.
