Jul 26, 2008 - dropkick murphies way better, but this lets you understand the story better because it has less guitar, bass guitar, and no drums

Jul 26, 2008 - this song really portrays the pain of war and how easily you can die, and if you get wounded and survive your life will be completley altered

Jul 26, 2008 - This is classic. A fantastic version. Dropkick Murphys version is quite different, musically, but also very very good. Don't compare them, simply enjoy the differences of two versions of a great song.

Jul 26, 2008 - Dropkick Murphys better than this? Oh fuck I dont even think so. But maybe Im just a purist. I grew up with Clancy Bros. records. Nice to know somebody's carrying on this song but Ill stick with the real thing.

Jul 26, 2008 - see, thats cause it's the clancy brothers...and tommy makem. they were one of the best folk groups of the time (most of 'em are dead now..i think liam mights still be alive) and it's a good song so as long as you have any talent with singing it's gona be good any way you sing it...un less you rap it...then you just fail. another good song about about the IRA is the patriate game
ThePlungerOfDoom Says:
Jul 26, 2008 - Gaelic is the language, celtic is the culture...not that you're gona look at this anyway but, lol. i have too much time on my hands man....
ThePlungerOfDoom Says:
Jul 26, 2008 - i like the dkm version, but you can't beat the calssics.
ThePlungerOfDoom Says:
Jul 26, 2008 - The Crossing has an interesting anti war song too, but i can't think of the toitle for the life of me, Frontline by pillar is another good one, along with the patirot game
big5rks626 Says:
Jul 26, 2008 - my high school choir sang this and it was soo good
Rattnuff Says:
Jul 26, 2008 - <--dkm fan ^^ I like the classic
metalhead192 Says:
Jul 26, 2008 - wtf is calssics???
roddyjojo Says:
Jul 26, 2008 - The Patriot Game isn't an anti war song you fucking eejit. Read the lyrics.
roddyjojo Says:
Jul 26, 2008 - This song isn't about the IRA, it's about Irishmen being sent to fight in Ceylon by the English.

Jul 26, 2008 - Let me correct if for ya, Dropkick Murphys sing better, ;)
