The Band of the Fighting Irish at the University of Notre Dame plays this song as part of their warm-up; I heard it often when my son was a member of the Band. It sounds quite different with when played by 400 musicians. ;)
Just saying but I really love this song a lot and the reason is because I am part Irish and the writer of the song wrote it in honor of friends of his that died fighting in the Irish rebellion of 1798 but I also love this song because I play this song on the tenor and base drums in a Bagpipe and drum band that is named after the famous famous brave black watch aka the 42nd regiment of foot which is a British, Canadian and Scottish infantry regiment and its currently the 3rd battalion of the royal regiment of Scotland 🏴.
We whupped the best they sent us, and we whupped 'em fair an true We whupped thier German immigrants and they Eyetalians too We whupped Frogs and Square Heads and all their furrin might But when the wen and got the Micks, we knew we'd got a fight.
Haroo Irish, HAROO!!!!!! FA-A-BALAGH!!! FA-A-BALAGH!!! (Clear the Way!!) Riam-Nar-Druid-O-Sbarin-Lann: Never retreat from the clash of spears, give em hell NY Irish Brigade!!!
Terrific song, the Irish and Scottish regiments are so lucky to have such great music as this and Killaloo, Willie McBride, Flowers of the Forest, Sgt McKenzie etc Went to the funeral of a soldier in the London Irish last week and they played this on the pipes, it was amazing. Now, a few historical facts that bear stating. This song is IN NO WAY sectarian, bigoted, anti-British, republican, anti-royalty or pro-Irish Nationalist. Robert Moore was a Catholic but he was educated at Trinity, served in the Admiralty, was the toast of upper class British society, a friend of the Prince of Wales, married an English Protestant and performed for Queen Victoria. Sure he knew some of the United Irishmen but was never a member and he would also have known some of their Irish opponents, the song makes no distinction in the allegiance of the Irish soldiers it pays tribute to. Moore considered all Britain’s political problem’s solved with the emancipation of Catholics and non-established Protestants in 1828 and opposed Daniel O’Connell and his Catholic association denouncing him as a demagogue. He was also vehemently opposed to slavery and one theory is that this is what the song is actually about. Interestingly it was sung by Irish soldiers on both sides in the American Civil War but for obvious reasons was more popular with the Union troops. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Moore So, The Minstrel Boy is for everyone, Protestant/Catholic, Unionist/Nationalist, EVERYONE!
@@MrLorenzovanmatterho There are no more REAL Irish regiments of the British Army. My grandfather served with the 18th Regiment of foot aka The Royal Irish Regiment 1685 - 1922. In fact the real Royal Irish Regiment and not the renamed UDR. His brothers served with the Munsters, Dubs, Leinsters, South Itrish Horse. They Were IRISH as distinct from Ulster Regiments. The Irish guards ahve long ceased to be Irish. Stop trying to rewrite history. By all means shout as loud as you can but that won't stop the truth.
@@anthonycosgrave8539Of course there are, how could you be so stupid? There's the Irish Guards and Royal Irish Regiment etc etc en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irish_in_the_British_Armed_Forces How about you check out an atlas and discover Ulster is one of the 4 provinces of Ireland? Not rewriting history, making you aware of the reality of it, I will shout because people need to know the truth.

Certain regiments had “theme” songs for lack of a better word, the 69th New York used Garryowen as theirs, but a lot of men in that regiment liked this song as well, don’t quote me on this but I believe the 84th New York (also known as the 14th Brooklyn) used “The Girl I Left Behind Me” as theirs.
What specifications are there if I would like to use some of these songs in a film I am making about the American Civil War? I will credit where I got the songs from but is there anything else I need to do?
Acdragonrider Videos I’ve tried to ask the same but for a music project no one has responded It does have the reuse by creative Commons attribution however I like to double and triple check this kind of things, have you had any success have they gotten in contact with you??
NOT BRITISH, NOT BRITISH, it is an IRISH tune written by an IRISH man to commemorate the 1798 rebellion in IRELAND, the words of the song are magnificent and beautiful , the Mistrial Boy, typical english have stolen it for some of their regiments, well, the english were the foot pads of the world and the thieves of the world, out of this they built their empire on the blood and guts of other nations, yours Methuselah
Reminds me of that scene from Gettysburg

Never knew how a march can sound both cute (the fife) and ferocious (the drums) at the same time.
@@Reiman33 Yep. Frederick the Great, King of Prussia, even wrote some concertos for the fife.
The Band of the Fighting Irish at the University of Notre Dame plays this song as part of their warm-up; I heard it often when my son was a member of the Band. It sounds quite different with when played by 400 musicians. ;)
Yup, because one of the first presidents of Notre Dame was the chaplain for the Irish Brigade of the Union army
I imagine it also sounds different with cannon and musket fire ringing too lol
This song is so cheerful and sad at the same time
Just saying but I really love this song a lot and the reason is because I am part Irish and the writer of the song wrote it in honor of friends of his that died fighting in the Irish rebellion of 1798 but I also love this song because I play this song on the tenor and base drums in a Bagpipe and drum band that is named after the famous famous brave black watch aka the 42nd regiment of foot which is a British, Canadian and Scottish infantry regiment and its currently the 3rd battalion of the royal regiment of Scotland 🏴.
The black watch, 42nd foot ad they used to be wear the government tartan.
As a southerner I say, only them Irish boys could scare a rebel. Tough as nails. And just as stubborn.
@Paul what is that supposed to mean???
@Paul Dún dó beal!
We whupped the best they sent us, and we whupped 'em fair an true
We whupped thier German immigrants and they Eyetalians too
We whupped Frogs and Square Heads and all their furrin might
But when the wen and got the Micks, we knew we'd got a fight.
Only God can scare the Irish, why do you think they have the best chaplins?
Some great marches! To all who served and gave their lives I salute you.
I'm not going to win this one, am I Chief?

Here is your sign.~~
Wrong thing this is the civil war
He was right, about all of it. Those ships weren't carrying science equipment.
The first time I heard this song was in The Man Who Would Be King. I'm glad I found it here.
That I can and that I do
"In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti"
Amen.
AMEN!
Hello there

Though all the world betray thee ...
Ho here lives in ireland because I'm doing a school concert and I have to play this song
69th Fighting Irish. Forward. March.
black hawk down
Very nice tune and lyrics. The song's lyrics have been altered to fit many different armies such as during the civil war in USA.
Fantasic
As a bagpiper, I approve of this
I played this after the Celtic Pantheon was released in Smite
To the 7th...
“Foward Boys!”
this reminds me of a hymn we sang in church but I can't put my finger on it....
THE SON OF GOD GOES FORTH TO WAR A KINGLY CROWN TO GAIN HIM!
It's used by the British Army as well.
Well fuck it off then

i'm wondering if each regiment had its own particular tune... a way to identify one or another regiment ?....
Certain regiments had “theme” songs for lack of a better word, the 69th New York used Garryowen as theirs, but a lot of men in that regiment liked this song as well, don’t quote me on this but I believe the 84th New York (also known as the 14th Brooklyn) used “The Girl I Left Behind Me” as theirs.
What I find interesting is that this song's drumbeat sounds almost identical to the marching beat of the Confederate infantry in Gettysburg.
It's an Irish song
It's often played at funerals and marches for serviceman too
What specifications are there if I would like to use some of these songs in a film I am making about the American Civil War? I will credit where I got the songs from but is there anything else I need to do?

British tune.
Written by a proud Irishman, not British
Good
NOT BRITISH, NOT BRITISH, it is an IRISH tune written by an IRISH man to commemorate the 1798 rebellion in IRELAND, the words of the song are magnificent and beautiful , the Mistrial Boy, typical english have stolen it for some of their regiments, well, the english were the foot pads of the world and the thieves of the world, out of this they built their empire on the blood and guts of other nations, yours Methuselah
