Im adopted not knowing my birth family. My adopted grandad was from ireland and im proud to say i have irish ancestry if not by blood but by a lot of love❤. Rip shane.
Wow something runs in the family there; she’s also a very riveting and charismatic storyteller. You can tell the art of the story was instilled at a young age.
I want to read her book now, wanted to hear more. She is a very interesting person, what a family. R.I.P. Shane, I am glad their father still has Siobhan.
Elvis Costello 'responsible for this sad outcome'.? Please elucidate. Surely you're not suggesting that Costello caused his early demise. That would be a bizarre thing to say.
Siobhan was young and was shielded from a lot of the anti Irish sentiment. The majority of people in Britain didn't know or care about what was happening in Northern Ireland in the 70's
I mean England hasn’t any immigrants they must all be marginalised “they’re not one of us” Oh sorry a person of colour from an ethnic minority is running the country. Have you ever watched TV in England? Those people who are “not one of us” are literally all over it. You need to reign in your bigotry.
If Shane Macgowan were a footballer, he'd have played for England. In music, there was more money in being Irish, playing Irish style music. Identity is often a career choice.
@@spurs7151 Jeremy openly had dialogue, Thatcher's government forbade it but was having secret meetings with the IRA.

Beautiful lady beautiful soul ❤
RIP Shane. 🙏🙏🙏
Looks a lot like him tho.
😢rip shane ta bron orm siobhan met you when you were doing the art fest in nenagh !
I wonder how Shane broke his pelvis, bless him. When he fell off a train?
What a brave woman to have to deal with such strangeness and to think that Elvis Costello is the one responsible for this sad outcome
Elvis Costello 'responsible for this sad outcome'.? Please elucidate. Surely you're not suggesting that Costello caused his early demise. That would be a bizarre thing to say.
What sad outcome? He lived until 65 and was a major alcoholic. I’d say he did well.
“Growing up in England was no problem.” There’s an admission in the negative. Then goes on to describe all the anti-Irish sentiment in England.
Nonsense
Garbage!
There’s hardly any Anti-Irish sentiment in England
Siobhan was young and was shielded from a lot of the anti Irish sentiment. The majority of people in Britain didn't know or care about what was happening in Northern Ireland in the 70's
Oh shut up. The English never bothered the Irish. That’s why they all queued up to go there. Your hate for the English is pathetically antiquated
Dad's 92 in Tipperary, Shane's 106
I was raised in Australia…. Anglo-Saxon culture doesn’t let you forget that you’re not ‘one of them’….
More nonsense
That’s the same in any country
I mean England hasn’t any immigrants they must all be marginalised “they’re not one of us”
Oh sorry a person of colour from an ethnic minority is running the country.

I always thought he was a born and bred cockney...am i missing something?
County Tipp rep of ireland
Born in kent. ireland age 2 to 6 , then family moved to England again.
@@frankmaxwell5193 the irish blood stayed with him in his song writeing thousands are sailing been a classic
@dalebrennan7615 I agree, just answering the question.👍
Cockney borne in Tunbridge Wells ???
Hey. They delete posts they don’t approve of. How not cool
She got better teeth
Shane’s teeth in his hay day looked like a vandalized graveyard
Idiotic remark richardbellend
@@robstraton7842Like a Donegal graveyard.
But he didn't gaf & he pulled A LOT of attractive women. So his attraction surpasses his teeth.
@@johnmc3862 As an American I've seen a Donegal graveyard and know just what you are saying... poetic though

His sister’s name is Siobhan, he’s Irish, just because he lived somewhere else doesn’t mean his ethnicity changed. 🙄
@@TheBLGL The overwhelming influence on a person's identity is where they grow up. It trumps everything. Shane Macgowan was primarily a Londoner.
@@spurs7151He was a friend of Sinn Fein & supported the cause. How many non Irish Londoners did that? None.
@bernardpearce3478 That's makes him a terrorist sympathiser not an Irish man, or is Jeremy Corhyn Irish as well?
