I'm the same age as Bobby. We stopped work on a building site in Dublin and marched into the city centre in silence to meet up with building workers from all over Dublin on the day that Bobby Sands died. We marched to show our support for the cause that he gave his life for, our historic cause to remove British imperialism from our country. It was my birthday, and when I came home my wife asked me; am I all right? I broke down and cried. I'll always remember that day, and I'm reminded of it now listening to the wonderful singing of Bobby's granddaughter, with great sadness but with my greatest respect for our courageous patriots.

I'm 12 years younger than you, just a snotty lad at the time, and not even Irish, I'm a Dane. I remember the 10 patriots who died for their country. It was covered daily in our version of the Beep. RIP H-block Patriots!
my mother was related to michael o'hanrahan, we lit a candle for bobby sands and prayed for his welfare during those tense days every night, his grand-daughter, Erin Sands, is greatly appreciated and possesses tremendous 'aesthetics'.... God's blessings on the Sands' family and especially on Erin, her voice and her self are both beautiful.....!
I was marching with my dad and brothers, along with my dad's best friend and hundreds of others on Boston Common in Massachusetts on the day Bobby Sands died. I had a wallet that was hand made in Long Kesh prison (The Maze) that I would KILL to still have today. It was stolen when I was just 21 years old and it feels like I lost a piece of history.
As a Protestant I see all of us as lambs of god,rest in peace to all who died in that conflict,we should never forget the past so it doesn’t happen again.

Erin, beautifully sung! I’m sure your grandfather, and all your family are proud of your strength and courage to sing this song! Will always remember your strong and courageous grandfather. 🙏🏻 ❤ from Coronado, CA USA
What a great version sang by a real irish girl who was released too a complete and utterly hero i still remember the day Bobby died I was very young just remember all the women crying , and we lived very far from the North in southern Ireland but even as kids we knew a great man had passed.
Bobby and my grandfather were very close friends especially when he lived in twinbrook i still jave photos of them in my grandads house. My mum would run to his him and let him know his house was being raided.
stunning song great rendition I'm an English man the past is painful obviously and its right to honour hero's where ever your from I wish this world was a much better place, history tell us there will always be division but would it not be wonderful if we could all get along, x I will try my best
@@Minime163 You´re absolutely right, I´ve read widely on it. If you come to the Basque Country, you´ll notice that the Basques and Irish have very similar looks. Such a close genetic connection going back 8 to 10,000 years ago. Aupa!
Bobby Sands was a warrior bard and a hero. Grace and Joseph Mary Plunkett were heroes too. Be proud of your grandfather! This is a wonderful tribute. And I'm not even Irish, I'm Croatian.
@@alandavidson4725 funny, not too many streets are named all over the world about people in your description... obviously lots of people disagree with you
I too, remember Bobby Sands. I'm in the US. He instilled in my heart, soul and spirit, that Freedom is a God given right every person on this earth should have and be willing to fight for it. God Himself only gave mankind Laws that have to do with 1. Putting Him first, after all He is our Father and lifegiver, and 2. Respect others doing no harm to your fellow man. And That's It! This song stirs my mind to remember just how precious being Free is. God be with you all.
You know, as much as I love Jim McCann's rendition of "Grace", I think Erin's is just as good. Erin, your Granda Bobby will be looking down on you from Heaven and smiling that broad grin of his every time you sing.
"Grace" - Beautifully sung by Erin, Bobby Sands grand-daughter, who would have been very proud of her. It's just beautiful and a very moving song... God bless Erin & Damien!!
Thank you, We will never forget Bobb Sands and all the Irish who faught for their homeland. I feel like being somewhere there. My love fron Athens Greece.
For me among the best renditions I've ever heard so far. Robert from Rosenheim, Bavaria. And: Bobby Sands, may you rest in peace in an Irish Heaven. I am 71 years old now, I hope when I am dead, I can visit you (from Bavarian Heaven) and drink a bottle of Guiness with you. But it will take some time, I don't know how long my purgatory time will be.
Not only did Erin inherit Bobby’s gift for singing - It’s uncanny how I can clearly see him in her face too. Bobby would be so proud of her. I hope she knows that.
Laughter of our children? Republicans advocated the butcher of Ireland's innocent blood, in the wombs of their mothers. Honestly, the hypocrisy of republicanism knows no bounds. Laughter indeed!
@@samuelrobinson2033 Keep the hate out lad, a lifetime of indoctrination by unionist politicians and a Westminster curriculum has poisoned your true self. Be happy.
What great singer the sacrifice of her grandfather bobby sands shall never be forgotten as he was 1 of irelands bravest freedom fighters and may he rest in peace he would be very proud of this rendition of grace
Tis quite the feat to be the granddaughter of one of the heroes of ireland, as well as to have a great voice like that.The heroes bloodine keeps flowing too. Also I am sure Bobby must be proud listening and watching.
A song about a 1916 Hero , sung by the granddaughter of a hero from 1981 , none of these Heroes will ever be forgotten..and ..our revenge will be the laughter of our children 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪 Tiocfaidh ar la
Erin you sang this song beautiful and from your hearth, Great tribute to Grace and Joseph /Plunket and your Grandad Bobby too God Bless ,Best Wishes From Dublin.
Was working in St, James Street in London when Bobby Sands died, can still remember it he struck a blow for Irish men and women, and for Ireland, took the next day off in protest, A Beautiful song and a very Beautiful lady.
Love the heritage and music! And as a former soldier in Belfast , loved the Irish and married the most beautiful girl from east belfast! Still married 50 years in Essex, with 5 lovely grown up Kids and Grandchildren . Still love her and her family loads!xx🎸🍷🙏
Beauty comes out of tragedy first time I've heard this song beautiful song beautifully sung by a beautiful Irish girl you would be proud Mr Sands. Rest in Peace all who have suffered in the troubles from an englishman who cant understand why .
I am speaking as a person born in England but by God my ancestors are Irish. I carry them with me every single day. And it's wonderful to see this lovely Lady carrying the memory.. And the love... Of her ancestors. Bobby Sands is, and not was, a true Irishman. Who fought and died for his country. And it's so beautiful to see this, once again, rising up, with the Sands name. Long may Ireland live, and hopefully and very soon, we will have a United Ireland at last, and FINALLY. OUR REVENGE WILL BE THE LAUGHTER OF OUR CHILDREN. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
As a Brit with no known Irish ancestry, I agree with every word you say. All I would add is that my sympathies are always for the oppressed. Especially those oppressed by the 'British Empire' on our own doorstep. Ireland is still not yet free.
Yes this is a tribute to the sands family . But the real heroe was Joseph Plunket who died for his beliefs and to Grace who married him at the jail and loved him till the day she died…🙏🙏❤️
I remember your Grandfather well, and the others who were there. He awoke in the hearts and spirit of hundreds of thousands of people all over the world, what Freedom should really mean. I have often thought of those times, and always of your Grandfather. My husband's from Mexico and he also remembers. I can't even come-up with a word that accurately states what Bobby brought to life in our Spirit. But he's never been forgotten, not in this house! If one says they believe in something, whatever it is, yet isn't moved heart and soul to fight for it, they don't deserve anything. God be with you and your family!
