I just love it (& yes I used to be a cop !)
-
@mcgriff009 I think you ll find its mainly the scottish whinging about every sort of pipe being theres just ignore em bud
-
@skittlesareyum48 i should also point out the song has the distinct 3 tactums movement in the first part, it's what really gives it the vibrant feel. I really love this song too it's great!!
-
@skittlesareyum48 the song is The Rakes of Mallow. I believe it's an Irish song commonly played by many of the US service bands eg NYPD and NYFD.

fdny and nypd associate with irishness and irish desent. the irish tri colour is carried along with the nyc flag, the stars and stripes and the fire/police department flag on any march they make also during depatmental funerals. irish men made up the original dpartments and they're descendants make up the majority of both nypd/fdny.

You seem to care! Ouch no need for the cursing! Just shows how ignorant you really are.
-
@Scobe32 Exactly. We are all Celtic people.
-
@222macgregor Who gives a fuck whether or not it's Scottish highland or Irish? I am a native New Yorker of both Scottish and Irish decent, but am more proud to be American! This video is great and so are the NYPD pipers, fuck off.
Wouldn't be NYPD without the Pipe and Drums.......
