I spent 15 years in prison and use to sing this alone in my cell helped me get threw dark times
Deadly where did ye do your whack?
God bless
Cheers and sorry for your lost time. Fuck the prison system
What were you in for
My grandparents live at that time in Dublin, a living history I was told of the time when I was a child. Will never be forgotten the GPO the week that changed the world Russia to India and Africa + South America and Asia.
Brave, brave James Connolly and his comrades of 1916. Never to be forgotten.
RIP.
@@FrancoBegbieT2 Irish parents!
God rest “OUR brave, JAMES CONNELLY,R.I.P
Born in Edinburgh myself, we are extremely PROUD that James Connolly was born here and live here and live his life fighting for justice and a cause that is historically noble and absolutely iconic.
what shit use scots talking, he was from London
He was born in Edinburgh the slums for the poor to irish parents he was in the British army at 15 but he knew were hes heart lied 🏴🇮🇪🏴🇮🇪🏴
🇮🇪🏴
@@relentless1989 what shit use talking he was born in Edinburgh and made in Ireland
Connolly, Hibernians most famous supporter, a founding father 🇮🇪🏴
I'm an American offshoot of James Connolly's line. God save James Connolly, and God Save Ireland.
The Brave men of 16, we owe them so much.🇮🇪
Very true. And them in charge get their way they'll try make us forget our history and what these brave souls died for. Never forget
My Granddaddy fought with this national hero, I could never be soo proud. Goo bless Ireland
And so you should.
🤜🤛🍀🇮🇪🍀
James Connolly; one of the greatest socialists and heroes of the 20th Century. Remembering him 100 years on.
One of the finest men ever to have given up his life for our country we need more men like that in Ireland these days they would be ashamed of the people running our country now
@@bryanmcgoldrick8816 You need to bring Clare & Mick back from the EU. That's Clare Daly & Mick Wallace - two finer politicians you won't come across anywhere in the West! 👍

A Beautiful Tribute to James Connolly. ☘️
My Great Uncle, Sean Treacy, also went down fighting the English in Dublin, 1920. Rest Peacefully. 🥀
Was in the Sean Tracey Republican flute band True hero bless his Memory Glesga Bhoys Tiochfaidh arla
Rest in Power Comrade Treacy!
Is there any audio of James Connolly speaking on TH-cam?
@@KittredgeRitter James Connolly was a socialist and would have you shot.
SADLY, HE DIED IN VAIN. GILEADISM AND IMPERIALISM USING COVID-19 IS ALIVE AND WELL AND IS THE REAL VIRUS. SHUTTING DOWN ENTIRE COUNTRIES WITHOUT FIRING A SHOT CONVINCING DOCILE PEOPLE THIS IS GOOD. SAD BUT TRUE.
104 years ago today Rest In Peace James Connolly 🕊️🇮🇪🕊️💚🇮🇪🕊️🇮🇪 Irish hero
Class
From scotland and most of Scottish people now have family from Ireland of course us and Liverpool
James Connolly, Ireland is so proud of you. May you R.I.P..☘️☘️☘️
My dad was orange my mum was green. By the time he finished she was black and blue, that’s why even as English born to an English soldier and an Irish mother I feel ashamed of my English side. God bless the green white and gold
A song fitting for a great irish man,he died for what he believed what more can a great man do,he will live on as long as ireland and hopefully that will be forever,for he and the great leaders of1916 deserve that,men and women,🙏rip,
True men sons and brothers of Ireland 🇮🇪 🙌 we will never forget those here and gone 💔 😢
The Scottish man who’s heart belonged inIreland 💚
Love it. I'm a scotsman who lived and worked in Tralee and Dublin.🏴🇮🇪
Margaret Proudfoot so true Margaret his story as a young lad living in the slums of scotland with no future to joining workers on picket lines to trade unionist.then going to America just to travel back to Ireland and in the footsteps of larkin formed the unions and workers party to leader of the irish revolution with 6 other brave men signed a proclamation claiming and irish uprising against the British to being tied to a chair and executed in a way that no man should ever be put to death .he died for the irish freestate and today former republicans forget him very sad for such a brave and selfless revolutionry .James Connelly
His wife was a Scottish protestant. He was catholic. He deserves a statue in Edinburgh but the Unionists pro Westminster Edinburgh city council wont have it.i loved my time working in Tralee, galway and Dublin.
@donkey face jordan if this is true then she should be honoured also as the women played as much of a roll in the rising as the men. I know a few lads from the new lodge and antrim Rd.
@donkey face jordan i know one of the lads still lives on newnton Street. The rest ther family's still live in the new lodge all sound blokes we met up in London late 80s early 90s.worked on the sites and drank like fish at the wknds.
Please don't cry.connolly didn't cry.your heart should be steel.we are part of something that is on the one road and I am over 70.we know where we are going and where the children and grandchildren are going. Up the Republic
Thank-you for reminding me how much these heroes sacrificed for Ireland
I Love Ireland!
A true hero of the people,, a spirit that's needed today! James, we miss you.
I had the Great Honor on singing this song to James Connolly's Great Great Grand Son, In Kenny's Pub In James's Street 2013.. And am Proud of that...
Greetings from Corsica irish comrades!
here a Basque, the trinity of is completed
My father sang this song so beautifully 💚☘️😢
Comrades it has been some 800 years, but fear not our day will come. If we can continue the battle through peaceful means we will achieve unity. Ireland Forever......
and hopefully the "independent" part of Ireland will figure out what the word actually fucking means
100 years after republic proclamation, unable to defend theyr seas from pirate fishermens (imagine a navy), Gaeilge being a second class lenguage in theyr own land, brit banks evicting homes in the island, multinationals as google paying 1% of taxes while a irish baker pays 12%, the conflict being internationaly recognized as religius instead of political (as realy is), republics military infrastructure being used by USA to transport prisoners to theyr "secret" prisons in Poland or Guantanamo and blueshirts proclaiming the old fenians as part of them. James was right in all hes points about the forming republic, they change the flag and the accent of the rulers, nothing more than that. Achieving the 32 ignoring those points will mean nothing if Eire Nua is still a idea and not a real political agenda.
And also, Ireland (fenians) is leading the way for many nations from europe as Bretons (france ocupation), Corsu/Sardu (France/Italy ocupation), Catalans (france/spain ocupation) Euskaldun (france/spain ocupation)... The struggle is realy far from its end, sadly.
There's never been a revolution on Earth that didn't require bloodshed
2:45 You can almost hear the tears in his voice. Beautiful. Heroes all.
I'm Irish and a patriot always
Irish and proud so much history on this little island
Happy St Patrick's Day to the Irish everywhere, love from the Basque country X
My grandfather's name was James Brennan Connolly. The song makes me think of him. The Connolly's and the Brennan's were from Kilkenny Leinster
Jesus, I'm sat here listening to this crying . Brings back memories of being a kid watching my old man singing along to this song all emotional with a can of 1% Skol in his hand. I could never understand why he would get so emotional but now 30 years later I finally understand and am now here crying while listening to it myself . 🇮🇪
Me to brother
The key to immortality is living a life worth remembering!
James Connolly will never be forgotten ❤️
There is a statue of him in Chicago and another in Troy, NY. He is a hero of the IWW.
Thank you for your comments about Ireland they are very much appreciated . Yes we are a great country full of great people and yes we love our beer lol Hopefully we will be free of the English one day . There was to much blood lost not to be free !
James Conolly gave his Life for IRELAND , 99 years ago today !
A Scotsman I am proud to share with the republic, James Connolly was a wonderful man, principled and true to his cause until his dying breath, proper Irishman
Irish blood in his veins, he was Irish
@@penyarol83the scots are Gaels too
Never been so proud to be IRISH 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪♥️
James Connolly was the only one who knew what to do with an Irish Republic if they'd won.
+Nancy Benefiel Not the only one, but he had the only solution, a Peoples Republic in the true meaning of the phrase. And they would have succeeded, I'm positive of that.
+Tom Turner They wouldn't, and even they themselves knew it would fail. Yet, they still fought, because they believe that they needed a blood sacrifice to awaken Ireland from its slumber.
really tom clarke said he would bye a cottage and have a nice garden and make his wife happy
IRELAND WON !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
+FOOTBALL STUFF AND MUSIC AND GAMES Airlann hasn't won yet. Nor has North Ulster, Scotland, Man, Wales or Cornwall. However atleast Airlann is on its own and DeValera's Catholic Supremacist amendment got removed from the Republic's constitution years ago. They still don't give protestants much voice in the highest levels of government.
I'm fom Poland we understand and love you, never give up. freedom for Nothern Ireland
Breaks my heart evrytime from a child to an adult 🙏🙏🙏🙏 these ppl died for us
I thank this man and all the others for the pride in my heart and to be proud to present my Irish passport ..and declare to the world i'm Irish ...
Never a braver man then that of James Connolly to give his life for others to live free.God bless all our fallen soldiers.TAL!!!
The most emotion I have ever heard in a singer.
this brave man will never be forgotton as well as our other heroes on this our anniversarry
God bless him,and Ireland,witch he stood for.
Is James the same man who talked about needing to control a countries own capitalist institutions? Otherwise democracy is just an illusion.
Goosebumps is what I get every time I listen to this great song!
+poeticalish I have seen the wolftones many times in London ,this is the best song. he was betrayed by de valera because at that time de valera had a argentinia passport. that is why he got freed from Kilmanian.
+susan gallagher He had an American passport. De Valera was born in America, and the British Army didn't kill him in case it would ruin relations with America.
+poeticalish Same here, goose bumps with a few tears
poeticalish got them now ☘️
susan gallagher Port Glasgow ???
I have to hold back the tears when I hear this song!
Had a similar experience a few years ago during the tour of Kilmainham in the courtyard at the site of where the executions took place. The tour guide mentioned in order each of the executions and when they got to talk about James Connolly I welled up. It was particularly cruel how they executed him in that he was being kept alive in the hospital just to be murdered by firing squad.
+Maurice Kiely Sometimes it is hard to be civil when we know what cruelty was done to our great brave men. It is good now that we have a centenary; it should be done with respect and dignity for our men of a hundred years ago who gave us a great country. Their vision, their ultimate sacrifice should be honoured, not loudly, not brashly but quietly. For example, I just read Padraig Pearse's Poem , written on the night before he was executed:
The beauty of the world hath made me sad,
This beauty that will pass;
Sometimes my heart hath shaken with great joy
To see a leaping squirrel in a tree,
Or a red lady-bird upon a stalk,
Or little rabbits in a field at evening,
Lit by a slanting sun,
Or some green hill where shadows drifted by
Some quiet hill where mountainy man hath sown
And soon would reap; near to the gate of Heaven;
Or children with bare feet upon the sands
Of some ebbed sea, or playing on the streets
Of little towns in Connacht,
Things young and happy.
And then my heart hath told me:
These will pass,
Will pass and change, will die and be no more,
Things bright and green, things young and happy;
And I have gone upon my way
Sorrowful.
He was still bleeding from his wounds as they brought him in...
So do I, have to hold back the tears. but I WAIT UNTIL IT'S Night , and them I cry my heart out....Sorry to burden you all with this. Joey James Connoley...Hero!,
Joey
Upa ra 🇮🇪🇮🇪
James Connolly May have been born in Edinburgh , but his heart was in Crossduff County Monaghan along with the rest of his family.. May my Grandmother Mary Ann Connolly-Farrell. his first cousin.. Rest in peace.both of you.TAL
💚🤍🧡
His parents and siblings were still in Scotland in 1911, what family do you mean?
That's power in his voice when reading that. Brilliant.
he's legacy will live forever .
mhm
Hundred years on What a great Man God rest his soul
Hero .... WE WILL NEVER FORGET YOU JAMES CONNOLLY ... RIP
Love from England and the people of Britain today who despise that evil that existed tuen and still lurks in the corridors of power now. Let us stand together all honest men of any nation with love and respect for independance and dignity wherever your land is ❤
Brave man james connelly and his fellow comrades will always be in our hearts TAL FTq
A man with a social conscience and the bravery to stand up for his belief that we are all equal
a true brave man may he never be forgotten
What a wonderful song, the Wolfe Tones have done this proud, as usual. I love this song, a classic Irish tribute.
God bless you James
Let's not forget the legends of 1916...Peace and love now but never forget these men who died for us , never forget people
1916-2016 I'll be back home in the homeland to celebrate 100 years since this tragedy. May God bless all Irish and Scottish hearts
Up the Ra our day will come.
James Connelly you will never die in our hearts. R. I. P
Leaving my love on Easter 2016!! 100 years and still in all our thoughts
In any other country, James Connolly would be considered a national hero, to our shame, not in Scotland. He will be one day though and all our grandchildren will know his name. Our James Connolly they will say!
Salute james connelly
god, bless R.I.P. James Connolly
AND ALL THAT give their all
"There a no.flowers blooming but the shamrock is growing"
I was recently proudly involved in a tribute to the men of 1916. I did the poem, which was written by one of the execution squad and a musician played this song. I had never seen these two paired until today. BTW James Connolly was a Scotsman by birth, so even more amazing what he did for Ireland
And he was also a protestant but a free man who cared
@@robertcarson4285 He went to a catholic school his parents were catholic from county monaghan he grew up in the cowgate in edinburgh which is known as liitle ireland so why do you say he is not a catholic .....????
@@johnconnolly3320I’m pretty sure he was Catholic before turning atheist, then just before his death he turned back
The saddest song. James Connolly was a true hero. A heart of gold. Someone who cared like no other about justice for all oppressed people. A Labour activist. A globalist. A patriot. A rebel. An Irishman. Been to Kilmainham Jail where he was executed. Hard not to cry there. ☘️♥️🙏🇮🇪💧
He was indeed a great man, but to speak the truth, he was British not Irish and he was in the British Army as part of the British occupying force in Ireland for 7 years, which was when met Lillie. On the other hand, people tend to forget that British doctors and nurses cared for him in Dublin Castle before his execution. Of course Asquith called all the other circa 75 executions off on 11th May the day before he was executed with on 12 May with Sean Mac Diarmada.
@@skippership7 he was Irish. You can be born in Edinburgh you know and be Irish.
@@patriciathewisher2315 He was a "British Citizen" so like it or not he was technically British just like Skinnider was, a great and brave women who parents were Irish but she was also a British Citizen.
@@skippership7 whatever……. Maybe you’d like to define citizenship
@@patriciathewisher2315 Pre 1st Jan 1983 (when the qualification definition changed) you were automatically deemed a British Citizen if you were born in "Britain", why do you think people like Lady Georgian went to London to give birth to Constance? so she would be a British Citizen, that why. Of course Tom Clarke was also born in England as James Clarke was a sergeant in the British Army but I wouldn't want to be the one to dare call Tom English to his face, he would kick my arse.
To can then take this to all sorts of level, for example was Dev and American not Irish? Or, look at Erskine Childers an Englishman who risked his life to get arms to the IV in 1914, or Charlotte Despard, born in Scotland and brother of general Maxwell's boss FM Lord French and look at what she did in support of women's suffrage and Irish Republicanism. To me it's not where they were born thats important but what they did to further the cause of Irish Freedom, that is the most important thing.
"Shoot coward! You kill only a man"
If revolutionaries feared death, they wouldn't revolt. Better to die fighting than live unfree
From Scotland with 💚 TAL 💚🍀
God bless you James Connolly
A brilliant man.❤
🏴🇮🇪🏴🇮🇪 Born in Scotland, fought for our Celtic brothers!

James Connolly is one of my many favourite Irish rebbel songs , it's quiet a pity there isn't many more James Connolly like him Ireland would be long since free.and United.
Why say rebel. Were born in Ireland so can we be classed as rebel.
Theres loads of other songs of freedom.
Great, great man James Connolly.

"Apostles of freedom are ever idolised when dead but crucified when alive." James Connolly (1868-1916)
What a glorious tribute to James Connolly
God bless
I hope James connelly is never forgotten I love this song I learned it from my father may they R.l.P
+Nancy Burke He wil never be forgotten has long as his name is spoken through the lips of the true Irish, Rip MR James Connelly
+1958newboy I agree I still love those Irish songs true songs
If only he had of lived to see Ireland free. This just made me cry, a true true hero of Ireland
There is no free ireland while theres ones in the counties that still have to use sterling.
there is no free ireland while corporations and landlords are hoarding wealth
fair play 2 them all, RIP!!!!
Listened to this yet again. Absolutely fantastic. Then read some of the comments below. He was a great man. Does it matter where he was born. He saw great injustice being done to a small nation and a large powerful nation trying to eradicate them but not realising how resilient a small nation can bet thanks to people like Connelly
My family traces back to the Connolly's family here in America. God bless James Connolly, from a distant relative, from a distant land. Sinn Fein.
How Many Comments Says It All 🇮🇪💚🇵🇸
He was born a street away from my Grandad and he worked with my Great Grandfather, or was it the other way round.? They were patriotic to the hair on their toes. A saying of my Aunt, but still true. There's a Plaque on the wall which commemorates him, his birth and, life and death. There used to be a March each year on his birthday. My son and I marched together a few times. My son shares his Date of Birth with James Connolly. He's proud of that. Don't know if it's still on, don't think it will. My son would know. God Bless James Connolly, and do it, even if some say no.
God Bless ye mo chara!
and your family!
Pure and simple James Collins, was an irish hero..I am proud to know his descendants...May god bless this Irish Gentleman!!!!
As a descendent of JAMES Connolly (great ,great uncle) it makes me feel great ever time I hear or see any in relation to him.The man was true here whose true goal in life was to help the poor and less unfortunate than himself. A true Ledgend and hero!
Follow fellow Irish Comrades! Forward to socialism! Socialism is freedom. It is not poverty, but to be glorious!
RIP James connolly, me and my kids walk around proud because of everything you’s done up the ra☘️
ah memories of my childhood i grew up listening to the wolfetones great to hear tommy Byrne singing again, thanks Ryan. TAL
Missing my mother tonight and these are my childhood too x
God bless him☘🇮🇪
R.I.P JAMES CONNELLY
As I recall growing people such as James Connolly were the bad people etc. I am glad groups as the Wolfe Tones, The Dubliners have revised History. These people who fought for what was right for the poor and the struggling working class. God bless them all.
god bless you James Connolly you fought for what was right
Proud to be Irish proud of My people and our great men who fought for our freedom the will never be forgotten 🇨🇮
