Also, that guy, Molotov, said the Soviet planes that were dropping bombs on Finland were just "Airlifting food" for the "Starving" Finns, so the Finns started calling the bombs "Molotov breadbaskets." The Molotov cocktail was used against Soviet tanks, and they started calling them that sarcastically as "A drink to go with the food (the Molotov breadbaskets)."
To add further context to “Come out you Black and Tans”, the Black and Tans were notorious for their harsh treatment towards civilians in Ireland, through reprisal murdering, burning down homes (even entire cities such as Cork), shooting women+children in the streets and etc. Dominic wrote the song about the Pro-Treaty forces during the Irish Civil War which was between Anti-Treaty and Pro-Treaty forces following the Anglo-Irish war and Anglo-Irish Treaty of 1921. (To sum it up quickly Anti-Treaty means they support a completely free and United Ireland and pro-treaty means somewhat free Ireland but Northern Ireland remains UK.) He referred to the Pro-Treaty forces as being equal to the Black and Tans for their betrayal towards Ireland (loyalty to England which was shown in ways as having to swear allegiance to the King) and harsh treatment of civilians and captured Anti-Treaty forces, who were commonly executed through the use of explosives and other inhumane methods. To this day there is still a large divide in Ireland between Pro-Treaty and Anti-Treaty opinions just as much as an Irish Republican or Unionist opinion in Northern Ireland
Given the treaty is well and truly dead and has been for over 80 years, there isn't much of a pro vs anti treaty divide at all in Ireland today. The parties that came from the initial split still exist but not even they are particularly divided
an underrated folk song that I think you should put in part 2 is “wenn die soldaten” it’s about some soldiers leaving for war, and all the girls are like cheering them off with the sound of marching music playing as they march. It comes from a 1839 opera called the Pirates
3:18 the fact that you potrayed napoleon in short stature compared with the other two granadiers really couldn't help but further reinforcing his famous stereotype
i couldn't find another image of a man in a poorly made costume of a french grenadier with a good resolution, so i had to stick with the russian one. i'm a bit surprised nobody pointed it out before heheh
When Johnny comes marching home is defenitely based on 'Johnny i hardly knew ya' wich is an even older Irish song. Look it up, it's really beautiful. You picked some good songs btw. Great video.
Except that version was published in 1867, four years later than Johnny comes marching home, older versions of Johnny I hardly knew ye had a completely different melody.
@@Aleesb "written in Ireland in the late 18th or early 19th century, at the time of or in response to the Kandyan Wars, which were fought in Sri Lanka between 1795 and 1818. It has also been widely speculated that "When Johnny Comes Marching Home", which in actuality was published in 1863, four years earlier than "Johnny I Hardly Knew Ye", was a rewrite of "Johnny I Hardly Knew Ye" to make it more pro-war." At least read the whole wikipedia article before commenting something stupid.
Fun fact about La Chanson de l’oignon: The chorus was adapted into a Swedish folksong traditionally played during midsummer. So what’s the name of the adaptation to this French song? The little frogs (små grodorna).
I had never guessed that "Malbrough se va t'en guerre" was originally French. It is quite famous in Denmark as "Mallebrok er død i krigen, filiongongongogtingelingeling, Mallebrok er død i krigen i 1864" meaning "Malle Brok has died in the war, fili-on-gong-gong-gong and ring-a-ling-a-ling, Malle Brok has died in the war of 1864"
Thought I'd mention that the melody of come out ye black and tans was used in an older loyalist song called the orange heroes of Comber that said lines such as 'so here's a loyal toast may all base traitors roast' it was written during the 1840s.
Id like to suggest a song for the next video, "El novio de la muerte" is one of the most popular folk songs here in Spain, and theres also a parade along with it in Malaga
You should really do a second video, I think you should include Bella ciao or faccetta nera or both because Bella ciao has an interesting history and it wasn't sung during the civil war, it was made after the war! And faccetta nera (black face) is a very popular fascist song that, ironically, was hated by Mussolini and he asked to create another song called faccetta bianca (White face, I'm kidding), but Italians never truly understood what Mussolini said, even today they have a totally different version of fascism😂
Fun fact about Its a Long Way to Tipperary, or just Tipperary as a county, my family/ clan/ House used to rule over Tipperary and we’re related to the O’Briens, we are O’Hogan or just Hogan now.
Also, I wanna share some useless facts about the last song: that tune was also used in one of Beethoven’s piece “Wellington’s Victory” to celebrate Duke of Wellington’s victory over French in Spain.
For part 2 can we please for the love of god get Darude Sandstorm for part 2???!!! Easily the greatest Finnish folk song of all time greatly detailing the hundreds of years of struggle the Finnish people have experienced.
WAIT THAT FRENCH ONE THAT IS WHERE THE TUNE COME FROM?! Basically in Sweden there is this thing called Midsommar. It is a whole deal of singing and dancing. One of the songs is called Små Grodorna (Small Toads) and has the tune of the French song in this video. Huh.
Great video! You should do a leftist rebel/propaganda/partisan music edition. I understand not agreeing with us, but we got SO MANY good hits, from all over the world! Examples go from L'Internationale and Bella Ciao to Fierce Weather and Brüder, ergreift die Gewhere, but I'd tecommend going with known stuff like: -USSR Anthem -L'Internationale(french is original) -Bella Ciao(italian is original) -Warszawianka(polish ver. is original) -El Pueblo Unido or Canción del Poder Popular -Red Sun in the Sky -Mother Anarchy Loves her Sons -Solidaritatslied -El Quinto Regimiento -Die Heimliche Aufmarsch -Die Arbeiter von Wien That's most of the most widely known songs, but if you make a video and would like more songs, I can provide.
@@MLGSHINGOJI_3000 Not really. It was a song composed without allegiance to ideology, as it was just about women waving their men off to war, and it was without lyrics until the Soviet times, in which the composer, Vasily Agapkin, performed the piece many times. In 1990s it got its white lyrics but for a long period, people gave it their own unofficial lyrics. I may have explained this terribly...basically, it had no lyrics and no allegiance to ideology.
I’m sure others would have commented this but how tf have you not got more people subscribed . I only watched 5mins of the Hapsburg one and clicked subscribe QuickTime
Marlborough was rated by Napoleon. From dispatches we know he didn't think much of Wellington but did note Churchill as great, "Your Marlborough, besides being a great general, was also very witty". He successfully lead the 'Allied' forces in the Low Countries under Queen Anne. It's this war that birthed a great British propaganda folk tune used in the TV series, Sharpe, 'O'er The Hills and Far Away'. This is a nice version of it: ruclips.net/video/7bs07OvqXp4/видео.htmlsi=QFZ02bKP43AKxscl Another folk song for anyone interested in the period was 'Drink Old England Dry', when French invasion was a threat: ruclips.net/video/Hp4Cd8SiUMc/видео.htmlsi=HGSNR082lDTYEPII I've heard a few good French ones of the period too!

The spiciness of a raw onion would likely put some pep in your step during a long march. Although a bunch of soldiers crying as they march might hurt morale a bit...

One correction, cork wasn’t completely burned down, just some parts of Patrick street
Being English I'm so happy none of my forefathers were in the black and tans
Still don’t agree with terroist

3:18 the fact that you potrayed napoleon in short stature compared with the other two granadiers really couldn't help but further reinforcing his famous stereotype
He was actually average height for the time wahaaa
Napoleon actually did typically stand next to soldiers who were tall in stature compared to him, though.
Look we all know he wasn't actually that short but it's much funnier if we pretend he was
@@vizaloron9242 Not average height for an aristocrat though.
He usually stood next to his Old Guard who were required to be 5'10" or more. That's why the enemies see him as small
3:13 the Grenadier holding an onion is a Russian Grenadier 💀
i couldn't find another image of a man in a poorly made costume of a french grenadier with a good resolution, so i had to stick with the russian one. i'm a bit surprised nobody pointed it out before heheh
