I had to read up on the history behind this song. The things that are just not taught in American history. A hauntingly beautiful song that were I still in a classroom teaching history, it would be included in lessons about the Civil War.

In December of 1862, Federal commander Major General Ambrose Burnside launched a futile assault against emplaced Confederate works on Marye's Heights, Fredericksburg. Wave after wave of Federal regiments were massacred- the courage of the Irish Brigade thus became legend. Robert E. Lee paid tribute to the valor of his foes, the Irish in Federal blue: It is well that war is so horrible, lest we become too fond of it.

On landing in NY at the time of the U.S. Civil War, Irish were drafted into the northern forces with the promise of a pension and citizenship. They were still ostracized and discriminated against. Still going on in the U.S. today - there are a lot of U.S. immigrants in the U.S. Armed Forces overseas.

Love this song, and the way she sings it. I think of this song as coming from the American Civil War,although I don't know if it dates from that time. It's a perspective of that war in particular that we don't generally hear, from that of the immigrant who got caught up in that war and suffered for it. Good anti-war song in general . . .

This is Sinéad's performance of a song whose content is more Irish-American than strictly Irish -- more than one of my ancestors (including three members of the famous Irish Brigade of the U.S. (Union) Army) came to the U.S. under circumstances more or less identical to those described by the song. (At least they were on the right side of the war they fell into -- though that was probably mostly a matter of chance.)

Amazing performance from Sinead.I really hope she doesn't include the Welsh when mentioning the Brits I'm Welsh and don't consider myself British.I admire Sinead she's taught herself so much about history religion and language Genius💚🌈🙏🍀💐

Poetic justices indeed my friend and that Clinton forced Briton to to come to terms with Ireland. I mean that if Northern Ireland ever votes more then 50 percent in favor of unity with the south that Briton must comply or face the resulting punishment...

@Panczekolada but my own Great Grand Father watched as his uncle was beaten to death with hurling sticks wife raped and the older boys sent to jail their was no justice to the irish and the english got away with it. The Only difference between England (in History not presently) and the Nazi Germany was that the English had better PR.

@Panczekolada The Americans, 3/4 of europe where screaming at Britain to release Ireland or at least come to a compromise. The Irish at the time had down something no ever did to that point brought England to the Negotiation table it only to 50000 Irish dead before that happened Millions more in the last half century its easy to be critical of a people that are fight for home and country .

Nmccarville WoW the Welsh were suppressed as well our Welsh lanuage was banned from being taught b.coz we were a poor country the English built schools then banned our lanuage being taught which means most off Welsh people can't speak Welsh and that's a crying shame also the queen still has sovereign in Wales prince Charles prince of Wales is a fuckin joke!!!!! I really do understand your anger Ireland has suffered so much for such a small country it's barbaric cruel and disgusting💚please enjoy the music of Ireland it's amazing💚🌈🙏

In '"The Gangs of New York" (which is supposed to be mostly based on facts) the Irish immigrants were led off the boats and made to sign papers and told they had to go and fight for Lincoln. In one scene part of this song is sung. Singer sounds just like Delores Keane, not sure. Any case, the Irish got the shaft. I'm an American and proud to be of Irish decent. I am ashamed of some things done in my country.

@Panczekolada but is it right to turn you back on your county you National pride while all the other Celtic Nations fell to England. Ireland is for the Irish NO ONE else the english in history where beyond cruel 750 years of cruelity and the Irish as a culture remembered every slight and in the end it was not voilence that got ireland its freedoms it was World Presure on Britain remember at that time they had just finished a war to free the small countries of europe...

I don't think that you're right, friend. They weren't -evil-. Just the only thing they cared about was the British Empire. At the time where human was just a source of income they wanted to have as many -own- people as they could. I don't see anything evil in it. I'd say that france was more evil before britain. Guess my comment will get downgraded but i just wrote what i think. With sweet and coco respect -MisterChocolate
