- The Song of the Staffordshire Men is a modern English folk song popularised by the musician Jon Raven in the 1970s. It celebrates the rich history of Staffordshire, particularly its importance to the Industrial Revolution.
This is one of a number of modern folk songs. While not strictly 'folk', these songs celebrate England's rich folk-musical history through recreation and composition.

If you're English born and bred, you should have that sense of longing since birth. The issue is that you lost it.
Yes, immerse yourself in English culture.

The Staffordshires WW1.
A division that went from being cut down in the somme.
Too being the first allied troops too breach the Hidenburg line.
With ferocity, skill , and perfect planning.
All for nothing
@@benjaminchooby6760 wrong, the kaisers expansionist policies would have led to a German dominated Europe, and moreover, the world at that time, god bless the Staffordshire men
@@samuellambe1568 a German dominated Europe. So what. They lived in a British dominated world .
@@samuellambe1568 Better than the world of today dominated by America.
Thank you so much for this channel! A very important project! I come here from Dr. Ludwig, who does the same thing for his Germany. Much love from Italy!

This is the tune to the unofficial Cornish anthem "Trelawny" (the official Cornish national anthem is "Bro Goth Agan Tasow").
its more likely they root from the same tune rater then the staffordshire one copying the cornish one.
