I'm not Irish I'm black but I can truly appreciate a song that pays tribute and homage to ones race or ethnicity, this song unapologetically Irish it shows Macklemore isn't afraid to show where he comes from and wears the Hagerty name proudly I can admire that, as I said I'm not Irish but I love the hell of this song that's have a celebration huh??? Raise your glass if your proud to be Irish one time!!!!
I love the song aswell, not Irish aswell, and the message is pretty nice to
Jeremy Diesel He's american not Irish and its insulting and frankly racist for him to claim otherwise.
His origins lie in ireland
Mark Evers Well by that logic we are all african then
Not that far away
The Irish are everywhere. Forced exile from a tiny country resulted in becoming one of the most widespread and influential diaspora of the entire Earth.
Well, just America really
Thomas Ellis Certain parts of America, Mexico and Canada, Argentina, the Caribbean, England, Australia, New Zealand, and other parts of the world are full of Gaelic descendants.
Dae Dalus
I didn't literally mean just America, but in the US the number of people who claim Irish ancestry is 35.5 million that's more than any other country in the world and it's over 11% of the USA's population (those people aren't Irish they just have Irish ancestry).
Thomas Ellis You're right. Mostly on the east coast too. Ireland is extremely misrepresented here in the U.S., even by the descendants. Having Irish blood means very little if you are ignorant of the history and culture of the country itself.
Dae Dalus Yeah they are all over England Irish here Irish there I would know I'm of Irish descent(1/4 Irish) but this video is wrong that flag is the flag of the republic of Ireland not Ireland & only Americans would make that mistake & is quite offensive to the Northern Irish that should have been St Patrick's flag they were flying. That is the problem with Americans they all think they are Irish when half of them are Ulster Scots not even Irish. The Americans need to start respecting the Northern Irish's views just because they don't want to join the republic of Ireland that doesn't make them any less Irish than the republic of Ireland. After all as of now I don't blame the Northern Irish as the republic isn't doing to well at the moment & is down their with countries like Portugal which isn't good & will take time to recover, not to mention the fact that they had to borrow 7 Bn of their old enemy the UK.
I'm here after Hind's Hall. Greetings from Kazakhstan 🇰🇿💚🇰🇼
Me too ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I’m Black American and this is one of the dopest hip hop songs ever. Why? Because Hip Hop is about REPRESENTIN’ and this song does it to the absolute fullest!
who cares if ur Black? how is that relevant?
Agreed My Brother 🙏❤️🙌✌️💪☘️
this is not hip hop😂😂
The Irish an black panthers hooked up in Belfast b4 because we received the same hate big love
Much love!
My Irish grandfather passed away last week, it was nice to come back and listen to this song :)
I'm sorry for your loss, but i'm sure this song made you realise how proud of him you were :)
That's nice man :D
+InsideJacobsMind
dude go fuck yourself
+watch_your_6 H go fuck ur self
+InsideJacobsMind Oh sorry dude i feel bad for you good that you were happy when you heard this song. Cheers chap
I am Irish myself, and seeing all these comments hating on the Irish saying that we are weak, yet the British Army could not defeat the IRA, which is a paramilitary? They needed to resort to killing civilians to attempt to get at us, yet it is them who called the truces over the many years of conflict an yet they consider themselves a "superpower"? Don't make ignorant comments against the Irish just because you are uninformed of the truth, the censorship of the fight brought home to England is to blame for that. I end this, proud to be an Irish Republican, Tiocfaidh ar lá - Our Time Will Come
Firstly, Killing civilians is a somewhat strategy of the British they used it in the Boer wars in an attempt to make the enemy surrender & it worked, Lord Kitchener was the man who thought of that so you can thank him. You're an Irish Republican that makes me laugh Republicans are just narrow minded twats. I have no issue with Nationalists but Republicans have a history of violence. The IRA was like a revolt it was no simple matter well the defeated them as the Provisional IRA demobilized hence why the Real IRA was created as they did not agree with the decision. You clearly know nothing on Britain or Ireland because as far as a war goes I think we won because Northern Ireland is still in the UK & also the IRA no longer has political support so if they tried anything big they would not get away with it anymore.
lewis bates You merely said that killing civilians is a "strategy" when it is clearly a war crime. You call Irish Republican's "narrow minded twats" when clearly the British don't give a shit about anyone but themselves? They invaded Ireland, the RIRA were in their right mind to protect what was their country, you think the English wouldn't do the same if they had been colonized? Notice how America reacted to it, the only difference is, the British were too afraid of losing this war as it would leave them "vulnerable" to attack from other countries as they may use this as a launch pad. If you can't respect the fact that people would give their lives for the freedom of their own country, like the English would have when the Normans invaded them in 1066. How can you consider that the war was won by the British Army when it was them, who had to pull out of the war. A "superpower" has to pull out of a war with a paramilitary? The problem with the British Army is that they don't know they are weak, they've always had the Americans backing them for some reason in which I don't understand, but that's irrelevant. I agree, that right now, the IRA shouldn't do anything due to the recession in the Republic of Ireland. The British invaded us, took our six counties, and ended up having to pay into our country for as long as it lasts. We'll enjoy the free cash, but another reason in which it wouldn't work is due to the Unionist party in Northern Ireland. They wouldn't agree to have us freed due to their loyalty to the Queen. But one day, Ireland will be a united country.
Toure Skills Ireland won't be united. It is a strategy as such. I have no issue with the Irish as I am 1/4 Irish myself(Ulster) but I'm staying Loyal to the Monarchy. I have no issue with Irish Nationalist but hate Irish Republicans. America backs us because of alot of thing the USA was originally founded in British colonies. We made them rich during WW1/2 by them selling us weapons for a couple of years. Loads of people invaded the English that's why I probably have Viking ancestors,Norman etc the difference is we integrated but the Irish won't.
lewis bates After a while, there will be another uprising. Eventually we will get sick of it. We seen an example of this back in 1916 when there was no backing for the IRA, even by Irish people. But when the martyrs were executed disgracefully by the British Army, opinions changed. Once the Republic regain economic status I predict that there will be another uprising. You say that the English made America rich, when all they did was sell them weapons? That's no reason to back a country. When China turned communist, America still remained to trade with them even though that they were in conflict with them to avoid the domino theory as they came out as communist unexpectedly. Ireland was also invaded by the Normans so I don't see your point. It is not our duty to be invaded and integrate, you have a decision whether to fight for your freedom or be forever ruled by someone else. Notice how America broke free after being colonized by the British. Why do people not hate on the Americans? The reason for that is trade.
Toure Skills America broke free because of taxes nothing to do with Patriotism for America that is a terrible & incorrect example. Well Britain & America have the same language, Britain was a superpower 2 superpowers making an alliance you aren't going to lose many wars are you? There is alot of British-Americans so obviously they would back it.
2:29 The man playing Macklemore's dad was my SAT proctor! Haha during break he goes, "Anyone here know Macklemore?"
Apparently there was a Craigslist ad to play Macklemore's dad, and sure enough that's him. He's a pretty cool teacher as well.
Sure. Uh huh.
+Tyler Garnica Only if you stop being a fucking inept moron and believing everything you see on the Internet.
+Tyler Garnica Exceptions** And k sweetcheeks ✌🏻️
When did Macklemor3 become the voice of our generation??? I'm so happy!
Even tho he is not accepted in the rap industry you can't deny he is a brave artist. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ Irish people are the best too !
Irishman here. Born and bred Ireland. I love to see Americans embrace their Irish heritage like Mr Haggerty is doing here. Greetings to all my distant Irish-American (or Irish-Canadian or Irish-Argentinian or whatever other part of the diaspora you find yourself in) cousins :-)
🙏 Thank you sir!!!
@@cassandrarolin9962 and we take pride to show love in our culture and roots 💚🤍🧡
Well said lad
Greetings from a fifth gen American O'Donnell. My daughter was born on St.Patrick's Day, the nurses at the hospital were so excited about the "Irish" baby.
8 years later, I didnt know this song existed.
But that really meant a lot to read. A lot of Irish-Americans and US gens with Irish heritage hold that heritage dear.
Always will.
i`m from ireland,anyone with irish blood is and always be irish,long live peace
.
Leon Eire Sorry when did we elect you to speak for all Irish people?
JD1010101110 at least you said sorry,you are forgiving my son
+JD1010101110 all irish speak for all irish. thats why we all hate each other man.
Great-White-North - so fucking true
after i listened to this song I felt so proud to be irish, and I'm not even irish
deep
lol
lol
hahahah same
I live in Dublin the Capitol of Ireland
Being an Irishman and listening to macklemore rap the whole heritage so eloquently and witty fills me with pride! Born in Dublin, made in Galway! Thanks for giving us a jam!!!
Yeah buddy 🙏❤️🙌✌️💪☘️
I’m an Irish American, born in Boston. Although I wasn’t born in Ireland, this song resonates in my soul.
@@patches0456plastic paddy gobsheen
We do not look the same and may not have the physical indication that we are Irish, because it goes beyond skin deep. Irish have the pride no one can explain. Not even fellow Irish men and women. It is an understanding that we unite under the invisible banner of the Irish blood line. We do not all drink, we do not all bad mouth our fellow man and woman. The Irish eyes see more than the good ole orange, white, and green. We see a beautiful collage of heritage and bonds before our eyes and communicate outside of the ties of other Irish. We spread across the world not preaching about race or religion, but about heart and with the sweat on our brows on how we came to be where we are today. No matter rich or poor we smile at the fact that we can proudly proclaim that we are Irish and will continue to be till the day we die!
You can be very proud :) I'm German and I am proud to have a long bloodline. You Irish have that too and you can be very proud of you.
Satorius The Germans are not allowed to be patriotic I understand you're point on the other comment neither are the British because of Asians complaining it's banned in some pubs to even put the English flag up it's disgraceful, If It continues I will be forced to vote for UKIP, As much as I don't want to I'm not just going to do nothing.
I like the Irish & am 1/4 myself, I'm moving to Belfast next month as well looking forward to that! I just hate the division in N.Ireland...Here is my opinion Republicans should be happy for what they have & not be greedy as their is different ethnic groups in N.Ireland & the Irish Republicans need to learn to accept that they once were Irish but not anymore things change. I'm not biased I promise.
lewis bates yeah i understand that, but in Germany its often even worst. I've you say that you're proud to be german, you sometimes even get called nazi and thats in our own society here in Germany
Satorius Then do something about it. I aspire to be a poltician & want to reshape poltics together. Bring back patriotism in Britain & encourage patriotism in general around Europe apart from Ireland(NI & ROI) because its a sensitive country & anything could set it of again(The Troubles). Separate the British & European identities because the politicians of today force a European identity on us which is fine as long as we keep our British one & our European one separate but Cameron does not understand that.
Hello. I am Mexican Can I raise my glass in to the sky with you my Irish friends 🇮🇪
Hell yea you can

I'm a mixed brown boy, but, my Mother is part Irish.
Ireland! The most patriotic nation on Earth. So patrotic in fact, that the second most patriotic nation on earth ('Murica) tries to claim that they're all Irish, too.
Sending love from England.
You don't know the Algerian.... They're crazy

Death Core so am I , high five✋
One of the best drinking songs by someone who doesn't even drink anymore. It's still a fantastic anthem.
Oh yes, I can clearly tell by your profile picture that you do not drink. At all.
BaeRuth He was talking about Macklemore.
BaeRuth did you even read what he just commented?
BaeRuth Can you read?
@@baeruthyou are clever and smart
I don't know if I'm Irish, but I'm a ginger so I'm just gonna jam out to this song. HELL I'M IRISH OKAY.
XD Same! I identify myself as Irish. I play Ireland in Fifa, have freckles, and absolutely love the Irish!
+Alec Villas well if you can identify your self as whatever you want, i might as well be from mars
callum grimes Haha thanks :D
+Andrew Bourque how do you not know where you are from?
+Alec Villas You sound like a fucking idiot. God I hate Americans they say the most stupid shit.

I'm irish but not giving me irish vibe tho
Great grand parents where Irish but I’m Scots Bhoy born n bred.
💪🏻🍀
Teresa, I think your spelling your name wrong...it's Mackdonah. That is, if you claim to be Irish. Stay down with your working group buddies who know all and tell the truth about all.
@@lauramarierutter808 true. Why are there so many spellings of Hagan. There is Hagan and hagin. Thats Gaelic right? Just asking. All the best.
I'm not Irish but Irish blood runs through my children's veins and ever since this song hits different
im a filipino ..can i raise my glass in the sky with you my fellow Irish friends?
Sure 😊😀
Indeed u can! 🍺🍺
+Gral Ezra Dela Qruz of course! :)
+Gral Ezra Dela Qruz Indeeed you can my friend
no, go back to china
This song is great. Makes me proud every time and I'm not even Irish. I love the cultural pride and openness Also, I'm African so I respect anyone who stood up to the colonialists! Keep doing you, Ireland. :)
hella abodomoveya
those who have been colonised, those that did share and still share the struggle will always have a special connection
Amen to this guy 😂😂
Best ever song I live right next to Ireland ❤😂🎉
You need to listen to Damien Dempsey -Colony.. greatest song ever written about the subject
Im from Germany and a proud Swabian despite all that I love Irish music and appreciate its culture.
Thanks Macklemore for an incredible song mixed out of your style and the irish one.
I like this song but remember our ancient royal kingdoms, and warriors instead of just drinking the whiskey.
Amazing song.! I liked too much. Greetings from Argentina to the Irish people. In here we have a hero called William Brown, he was irish and he helped to get my country's independence. He was a captain of our navy and fought for us. I rise my glass for Ireland!!!
YES👍👍👍🍀🇮🇪
Not an Irishman, but as a Mexican-American who's spent time in Ireland I've gotta say the place is fucking amazing, and the people are as well. County Kerry is probably the most beautiful place I've ever seen. I'll raise my glass right along with you all.
we got shit weather but our land is beautiful not filled up with skyscapers and shit ruining our fields
+sean mccauley hey the weather was my favorite part of my trip haha
+Joseph Sanchez the weather me arse hahaha.If you ever comeback bring me over one of those sexy mexican women.We know you got them lol
Leon Eire hey man where I'm from its super hot and winter is like two months maximum. It was awesome having rain every day haha. Sure thing man, as long as you introduce me to some fine Irish women! Lol
+Joseph Sanchez I respect you to the max! Much love from Germany to Mexico
Funny to think that about 100 years ago Irish people weren't even allowed to apply for jobs in most of the U.S.A and England .We were referred to as paddys which was just discrimination,It's great to know that we're no longer looked at as lesser beings and are usually friendly. :)
friendly to each other as nations,didn't come through very clearly.
I'm Irish-american. My sister got to go to Ireland last year. Can't wait until I have the privilege. Love being a Gavin. Originally it was O'Gavin until my family moved over. Can't help but feel blessed and grateful.
Hope you have already been but if not hope to welcome you soon ♥️🇮🇪
in my eyes everyone can have irish pride, irish pride goes deeper than just being from Ireland. now irish pride is the pride of being free and believing in freedom. LET US ALL BE IRISH PROUD
Irish proud is anti inperialism
I can get on with this!
Best song for St. Patrick's Day!
Morgasm172 thats just your opinion man.
Damn straight I second that!
ACproductions No its really not
If you are legit Irish then it is great, but if you're just an American or whatever you may be then it is still a good song but there is better for the day itself mate let me know if you need some pointers ;-)
My moms Irish , I love this nation. Go the GREEN , WHITE & orange.
F... Em.....haters! ;)
Irish is love Irish is life
Aaron Griffin It hurts but i do it for Michael D. Higgins
NiallTheAwesome Pmsl xD
Lol
My beautiful momma was Irish and Mexican. My grandfather came from the beautiful mother land.. they’ve both past.. but I will always carry our heritage. This song really hits.. to all the Irish! 🎉💪🫶
All of Ireland is celebrating today-can't say I blame 'em!
A celebration of love towards alk Irish. Finally a country that is emancipated from its history and that has a population of human beings who undestand the true meaning of inclusion and compassion. To all with Irish blood, love is in the air. Love is love. I support marriage equality!
Been in Ireland for the last 5 weeks. Most incredible experience of my life. I have never been less homesick and as heartbroken to leave a place as I am now. It is such a beautiful country with many incredible people. It was an adventure I will never forget and will hold with me for the rest of my life. Spending my last night listening to Irish music and sipping my Guinness. Cheers.
Sláinte mo chara 🍻🇮🇪
Happy St Paddy's day, love being Irish 🇮🇪🤪
🇮🇪🍀🇵🇸
I may not be full Irish but I am proud to say I have Irish in me. So I will raise my glass any day. I thank you Irish man who came over to America.
not even irish, but this song makes me want to be irish so much
Im an Irish man born and raised. I have no problem with this song being made, this man has every right to make a song about his heritage, plus its a kick ass song!
Everytime I listen to this song all I think of is my Irish heritage, God love the irish!!
I'm not irish but I know about having a rough history..Love you guys! AYE AYE
Any native -born Irish that want to dispute my heritage can look at the lineage and hardships my family went through being IRISH. Nothing ,but purple hearts in all the wars that mattered and being told, " No Dogs! No Irish!" when they got off work wanting a bite to eat.
nobody wants to dispute your heritage. but there's a difference between heritage and NATIONALITY. it's quite simple. if you're born in Ireland, you're Irish. If you weren't, you're of Irish "descent", it's quite simple.
I agree.
he is talking about the best country ever im so proud to be irish
I'm Kenyan but I'm lifting my glass to the sky and live the night...
Irish cele-fuckn-bration.
I was talking to an older woman who grew up in Germany and was asking her about her childhood etc. Very nice woman. She stops in mid sentence and says "you must be Irish". I told her I was and she said she can always tell an Irish person by how friendly they are and what a sense of humor they have. So I have that going for me, which is nice.
Awww I love that!! 😭😭
You also probably had a pint of whiskey in your hand. Dead give away 😂☘️
I'm an Irishman, born and bred in Ireland, and I love my Irish-American cousins across the pond (the Atlantic Ocean) but I dislike the way we Irish are constantly associated with alcohol and drunkenness. There's so much more to being Irish than getting drunk. Ireland is the land of saints and scholars. Gaeilge (Irish language) has a rich history in poetry and philosophy and music. There's nothing wrong with having a few drinks to promote conviviality and have a good time, but there's so much more to being Irish than that.
This is so true
***** I'm not Irish and as far as i know have no family roots in Ireland. But i support this completely. People seem to be confusing stereotypes with genuine culture, and although I love this song for the tune, it is a little upsetting that Macklemore&Ryan Lewis try to sum up the Irish as "alcohol".
G11B No I'm not Irish at all, that's why I come from a predominantly Catholic background & was raised as a Catholic but I've always rejected Catholicism, my Great-Grandfather was Irish but married an Ulster-Scot & had children(my Grandma) who married an Englishman who had children(my mother) who married an Anglo-Scot(my Father) all of my family members that I stated are Catholic apart from my Father who is a weak Protestant. The IRA are nothing more than violence loving cunts, always were always have been.
+G11B Ulseter isn't all northern Ireland there is county Donegal, which is Republic Ireland.
Michael Hegarty There are 3 counties in Ulster in the Republic of Ireland(Cavan,Monaghan,Donegal)
I'm from Londonderry, Northern Ireland.
I'm irish and I can tell ya I'm so proud to be Irish🙌🏼🙌🏼
You'll never beat the Irish 🇮🇪✝️
House of Pain vibes are strong with this one. Macklemore killed it! Happy St Patrick's day 2024, lets get it!
As an Irishman I would like to thank Macklemore for reinforcing such Irish stereotypes as alcoholism, red hair and freckles as well as an over simplification of our history and relationship with Great Britain. While I'm happy that he is proud to be Irish I wish he would express it in a more authentic way or at least in a better song. Oh and for Lucky Charms they are very difficult to buy here, hardly anyone eats them and they are made by An American company.
Yeah there's like one place to buy them in Galway to buy them and there a tener there's like 4 redheads in our school of like 250
red hair and freckles arent stereotypes. look it up. ireland and scotland have most worldwide.
i dont think hes talking about the cereal
Im pretty sure he's also talking about irish-americans.
Hes irish too you dumb fuck!😂😂
Irish ☘️ here. Drinking Guinness. Murphy in my family tree. I would love to see Ireland someday!!!
You’re not Irish. How can you be Irish if you’ve never even been to the country? You clearly weren’t born and raised there.
Hope to see you here soon!! Be glad to welcome a brother home ♥️🇮🇪
100%Irish here and this song makes me so proud...up the Irish show your stong roots 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪
As an Irish American.. This is one of my fave songs.. Proud to listen to this song
"I put the drink down, I couldn't drink like a gentleman. But that doesn't mean I can't make a drinking song for the rest of em." - one of the most amazing lines in Macklemore's entire anthology.
I'm the furthest thing from Irish but this song is sick! 100% Serbian here, but this song is inspiring. Spread love and peace around the world to all nationalities and races. We are all beautiful!
who cares if u r serbian how is that relevant?
AMEN Brother JESUS CHRIST Saves 🙏❤️🙌✌️💪☘️✌️

I'm Brazilian. I love this country, Ireland is amazing!!!
here comes the people that say they are irish. but in fact it's just there great great great great grandad
Well... I was Irish. 15 Generations ago. Lol.
well I am irish right now
Aye, that's alright Smith ;)
I am 100% Irish 🍀
Or my mom and dad. I am American, but my nation and heritage are two separate things. I spoke Irish for most of my younger years. I have lost most of it, but I remember a few key phrases. Like, Erin go bragh, Pog mo thoin, Slainte, Mo dhearthair ....I know a bit more, but I should bone up on it.
Hon the Irish like and comment if you think Ireland should be 32 counties again
+Adam Dooley agreed
+Matthew Crowley hon the Irish , long live our history
ohh ya
I agree - a Welshman.
I'm from the north and it makes me cringe when people say that the north is British, people need to go back to the roots! this country was never British to begin with! EIRE!
Everytime i hear this song im proud to be irish and after the song i remember back that im a black
I'm proud to be Irish and live in this wonderful country! fair enough history wasn't kind to us but we bid our time and now were the most respected nation in the world! hon the Irish! up tins!!!
Was born in Ballinasloe. Every time i hear this song i get so much strength and motivation. Ireland forever!!.
YES BROTHER!!!
Ballinasloe is a kip
This is a great song. If I was Irish, I'd be proud.
I always used to wish I was from Brazil or England but this song made me feel proud to be Irish ,thanks Macklemore
Seriously if he performs this in Belfast when I go I hope some certain people don't fucking flip their shit. (If your Irish you'll know what I mean)
Yea I agree
I imagine he has the sense to not preform this in Belfast as a riot would most definitely break out.
whoLIKEScurry O'Brien
Yeah. He'd either know not to or else he'd be advised not to.
+Jerry Jackson bringing a tricolour just in case but I know what u mean
Fergus HD
Yeah, it really shouldn't be like that but people cant move on....
Ireland Belongs to the Irish 🇮🇪
Im an Englishmen but my girlfriend is Irish and i love this shit. I wish Britian and Ireland could just get along for once!
im always going to get a long with a British person because this happened a long time ago
BOSSASOUR I dont think you read my comment properly.
Aaron teather That's because you're a narrow minded republican. Who is racist! Did you ever do some research on the Irish raids on England & Wales no? You should no that they slaughtered our people the Irish started this, We are in the 21st century not the 18th YOU NEED TO GROW UP! The chance are you don't even know any Brits or you know very few. You can't round up a nation & say they are all the same that's like me saying that all the Irish are thick drunks.
***** True bro, my gf said most irish people havent got a problem with english people and vice versa. Just a few retards out there who still hold grudges haha :P
HiTasty ha ha the Irish Republicans like that are pricks
Makes me incredibly proud to be Irish.
Ireland is a beautiful country, I myself am from Donegal, i dont care if we lose in gaelic, i dont care if anyone thinks my accent is funny, i am just proud to be apart of my country
+MasterHD I'm from the King's County (Offaly) and I am really proud to be Irish because of things like the 1916 Rising. #longliveireland #100yearsstrong

Uh, do you know who Wayne Rooney is? He was born in England, but is of Irish descent.
BOSSASOUR none of them come on that's the problem with this country never mind people on here, just don't think before they speak.(type)
I'm proud of my heritage and for all the people "offend" by this song, should realize that there's nothing wrong with expressing your heritage. even if your not a true born native.
Irish/Mexican 🇮🇪 🇲🇽 🇺🇸
German Irish here, proud to be half Haggerty...

my armenian culture is very similar to the irish. much respect to u, irishmen and women
nearly evrething in that son was bullshit im pretty sumre are culture arnt nearly the same
really? why would you think that? because of our languages, skintones or alphabets? or something else?
still, mine was a random comment. it's only by chance that i wrote it here, as i love both irish culture and this tune.
macklemore nailed it, completelly
sean sheehan You obviously don't understand what the song is about... -Pro tip- not your culture per-say. More a long the lines of relatively recent events regarding European immigration to the "new world".
i dont give a shit i find it offensive
love this song. I must say it's amazing how irish people are bounded with their tradition. It's nice to see that there are some nations which didn't change culture and tradiotion for progress, but kept them during they've moved forward.
I'm kenyan and my glass is up to my irish brethen
I'm an Irish and a Scottish man. Yet a German and an Italian man . I'm a Mut. To my heritage.
I am not Irish but I like Ireland... RESPECT :)
for all of you people who are assuming he isnt irish go get your facts straight. if you were a true fan youd know his true name is Ben Haggerty, and Haggerty is an irish last name. also if you look at his facial features like his freckles, eyes and hair they dont look very american. hes still irish but he was born in Seattle thanks.
I’m a straight white red headed freckled American male… St. Patrick’s day is the only day where I get to celebrate and feel proud of my genetic make up… it feels like a big deal for me because it seems like the rest of the year I’m supporting my LGBTQ, Black, Native, Female, and Asian brothers and sisters, but saint paddy’s… that’s my day ❤❤ and don’t forget, it doesn’t matter your ethnic background, you are all invited to celebrate our culture with us. ☘️☘️
I'm very very proud to be Irish Irish
To the rest of the world they were called terrorist. The British called them fearsome and dangerous. The US called them Freedom Fighters. But our country, called them the last stand. Fighting only for the good of the country, when fighting violence with violence didn't work the IRA disbanded and Sinn Féin was founded in it's place to try and come to a peaceful solution. The IRA went into different branches after the leaders left, now they act as gangs. But I'm proud to be the grandson of an IRA general, who fought when the IRA still carried on their actions fueled only by a single thought... "Our Land"
I glad someone else thinks the current I.R.A lost sight of the cause,but I salute you're grandfather.
MrTurok999 Thank you, yeah they've turned into kids without a cause... also kids with explosives. They used to have order and they used to work towards the common goal of protecting their country. Now it just seems like violence. But I understand the country's anger. I know my grandfather, who's born in Belfast (the area in contest of UK's land) and he said he would rather die than his birth certificate to say born in UK. When that area in the north holds so much history of Ireland. I'd rather there be peace and a solution. But I'd rather raise my fist than lower my head.
Gerry Adams though...
PS3ladd He was at my one of my family reunions. He was also there at my grandfather's funeral. Paid for a police escort and limos. Media can say what they want but I respect that man.

Ab Colligan LAOIS
Ab Colligan Bandon nah? LoL
good point
Irish Americans are different than true Irish, but we are still proud of our heritage. My great grandfather came into a world that said. "Irish need not apply," but yet,we are still here.
My great grandfather came here too with Irish not apply. But once again, we are all still standing! Love you girl! One gen to the next! That’s all that matters!
Irish used to be called "the new niggers" in America. People forget no one deserves oppression.
My family doesn't really embrace being Irish. I'm the only living person alive in my family that even looks Irish. Red hair all the way down my back and freckles even where the sun hasn't touched haha. I always got teased for it. This makes me feel good. This makes me feel proud to be me.
Hannah Vandehei Being ginger isn't being irish you could be scottish
Darragh Duffy We have Irish heritage. I never said that the only thing that made me think I had roots there was because of hair color. I only said I'm the only one that LOOKS like I do.
+Darragh Duffy or just ginger
When one of go to war, we all go to war. Irish and proud my man.
Dr. Phil's lily white ass you dont have to be ginger to be irish and you dont need freckles you dumb fuck
I'm only 1/8th Irish, but with a last name like O'Brien this song hits hard. Been blasting it March 17th since the first time I heard it. CLASSIC.
I love how the people who live in Ireland say that American born aren't real Irish. Are you telling me that if you move to another country you won't raise your kids and grandchildren to be proud of their heritage?
Am I classed as Italian as I'm from Roman decent?
+Shawty Gamer am I classed as north african because I am a homo sapien?
Brian Powers yeah but it only goes so far! 3 of my grandparents are Irish but I'm not! Ya great granny's grandad being Irish doesn't make you Irish!
Shannon Patton I half agree with you. I'm an American. Not Irish. My grandfather and grandmother on both sides came from Ireland and I grew up with Irish pride learning Irish culture. They made my sisters join an Irish dance group. I learned a lot from them and my parents. Now my son is growing up and I also tell him he's American first and Irish second. It will eventually phase out but it takes a couple generations. My sisters make my nieces join Irish dance groups because they say "if I had to do it so do you" lol much like the American Greeks and Italians
