    Another classic song. The song in question used to get heckled when the Furies sang it. Because it is about an Irish soldier fighting for the British army in WW1. Thus most of Ireland would have seen him as a traitor to Ireland. Though loads of Irish did fight in the British army. They still do. Lot of Irish people still don't look too good on those wearing a British army uniform. The whole thing about fighting for the British in WWI is more to do with ignoring the fact that the Irish were fighting the British in 1916. So instead of fighting for you own country against the British, you are off fighting for the British in a war that Irish people didn't see as their war. The song has become more accepted over time.

    A haunting poem. Imagine a man dying on hungerstrike. Only a short time left to live. To keep the moral of other prisoners up Bobby Sands writes poems ond short stories. Each night he reads them out aloud. Takes all the other prisoners on a journey in the darkness of their small prison cells.

    Can't go through Irish music and not mention Christy Moore. Amazing singer. The sweater as we call him. Sweat is always dripping off him. He has his beliefs as far as Ireland is concerned. Irish Republicism and the likes. Can be the ruin of many a person. But he has always stood by the whole Republican cause in Ireland. Been seen with a few people others might avoid been seen with. So let us all go on a Voyage together.

    Another song that football supporters sing. True story about one of the leaders of the 1916 rising. Due to be executed at dawn, and allowed to marry his love the night before. Second they were married they were parted. They had no time together as husband and wife. She simply went back home and he was shot the next morning by firing squad.

    Can't beat a bit of New Order. Love the way they used strangers for this video. As if they are the band. Big fan. Love Joy Division as well. Which was them before the whole New Order thing. Ian Curtis on vocals. Who sadly died so young. Leaving the band to reform a year or two later as New Order. Do have 8 studio albums by New Order and 4 by Joy Division. All on my MP3 player for regular listening.

    Will leave you with something a little different. Still talking a New Order song. But not played by New Order. Just listen. Done out using instruments only available in the 1930's.
