    Its amazing (looking at some of the comments) the reality that was lived in Dublin in the liberty's and roundabout is not what people believe but is the narrative that was and is still deployed now. It was not partisan in any way it was not republican and it was not discriminatory, people were too busy making ends meet looking after each other. Catholic-Protestant and Jew all the same and friends. Like Bob, Geldolf sang it police and Priests banana republic was the truth my mother and grandmother lived it. My Grandmother stated to the family one day that it was better when the brits held sway and her husband was a republican sympathiser and participant. The matriarchs fear no one and more power to them, if it was up to them there would be no wars. Fine song. Said my piece, Thanks.

    The rose upon the briar
    And the water running clear
    Lend enchantment to the linnet and the bee
    Their little hearts are blessed
    Oh, but mine can know no rest
    For my true love is far away from me
    Oh, it's straight I will repair
    To the Curragh of Kildare
    'Cos it’s there I’ll finds tidings of my dear
    All you who are in love
    But cannot it remove
    I pity the pain that you endure
    For experience lets me know
    That your hearts are filled with woe
    And a pain that no mortal can endure
    So it's straight I will repair
    To the Curragh of Kildare
    Because it’s there I’ll find tidings of my dear
    And it's straight I will repair
    To the Curragh of Kildare
    For it’s there I’ll finds tidings of my dear
    I've got to go
    I've got to find tidings of my dear

    Long on attitude and hipsterism with a bit of humor, but ultimately a travesty. Burns, if he were still alive, would kick your arses. I don't mind sending up well-known trad songs, but try this stuff on lesser songs like say "Come on, Eileen".

      Irish folk songs don’t “belong” to anyone, folk music is a living thing constantly evolving, not a museum piece, Rowland continues in an age old Irish tradition of reinterpreting and reworking traditional songs.

    • @MrMusicguyma
      @MrMusicguyma 4 роки тому

      @@1davidcampbell You are correct that folk music doesn't "belong" to any individual. Further, I agree that the lifeblood of any folk music is re-interpretation. But to me this version is farce. Style over substance, a send-up of a beautiful trad song. You have your opinion and I have mine. I hope that we shall agree to disagree without being disagreeable. Cheers.
