I´m German and have been traveling to Ireland quite often in the past, meeting such beautiful people from Cork to Dublin and even when I decided to disappear in the Wicklow Mountains for a while. Learned a lot from Irish folks: Their kindness, hospitality and outright loving nature is something I certainly took to heart and am inspired by every day. For what it is worth: Ireland feels like a second home to me, and I wish the best to all of you amazing folks over there.
I am British and born in England but am extremely proud of my Irish roots and plan to get a dual passport as I qualify due to my late father being born in Ireland(Roscommon), so I would be fine listening to this music as both mum and dad have played Irish Rebel music records throughout my childhood and have heard stories of how the English committed atrocities against the Irish including my ancestors abd their friends and neighbours.
@@jeanlannes4375 Wow big suprise the British defeated a poor country with few reasources, and that had low-moral conscriptions fighting high-moral marines.
You should finish the song with 'we're the British Army and we couldn't hold Hellmand' Just seems more appropriate ATM lol (no that I'm telling you to do it guys it's just a suggestion 😜
@@LukasM297 but that's partly the line before it goes "and when we're on night patrol we hold eachothers hands" then we are the British army and we're here to take your land obviously you never listened to the song all the way through 🤣😂

Is the song Brand New Keys blatantly inspired by this song or is it supposedly coincidence that they're almost exactly the same melody and the words are very similar in the first verse
Brand New key was a chart topping internationally popular song and was in boogie knights too. Kinky boots is a politically charged lyric version of that song. I much prefer this one though
I'm somewhat curious if Kinky Boots was inspired by Combine Harvester, which was inspired by Brand New Key. Combine Harvester is more culturally relevant and starts very similarly to Kinky Boots. The music itself sounds closer to me as well.
Give this a listen- note the similarities: th-cam.com/video/lKcpodt0YCU/w-d-xo.html But Saracen, SAS, don't these refer to the troubles in the early 1970s?
Forget Dubliners and Ulysses and The Importance of Being Earnest and all that stuff. The surest proof of Irish genius was in stealing a tune from an anodyne, hippy-dippy love anthem and refitting it with lyrics about sectarian violence. Wish they'd done the same with Sunshine Superman.
