My Grandmother was a courier for the Lord Mayor of cork Thomas macCurtain killed by the RIC she was 14 years old I’m so proud of her she died aged 96 she told me stories of how brutal the Black and Tans were and she saw the burning of cork by the Auxiliaries she was a great woman and I’m so proud of her
My Grandfather lived in Dublin and aged 16 he carried messages and guns during 1916 and spent the war delivering supplies and weapons to the various units.If he had been caught he would have been executed but many Irish people have similar stories.In 1922 the Irish partially fulfilled their destiny by becoming a free nation. In my opinion a United Ireland will exist within my lifetime(45 now) and everyone be it unionist will have to swear a oath to the 32 county United Irish Republic. A truly Free Ireland.
I'm German but I love Ireland and the Irish poeple. 💚 I'm very interessted in the history of Ireland so I also know this song and it realy touches me very deeply. I hope you all are alright. May GOD save the Ireland and the Irish poeple, May GOD save the world 🙏❣️ Much greetings from Germany ❤️🇮🇪❤️
@@anoe1022 Germans are in general f-g imerialistnazis, irish on the contrary anti-fascists and inti-imperialistic to the core, where the f-k do you see any similarities?
@@MrLaizard Imperialist Nazis? Germany is overrun and ruled by the USA to the very day. Same as Irish by the Crown. Occupied and ruled by foreign imperialist forces. If you see the EU nipple sucking, devote and completely USA brainwashed, demoralized Germans to be an invasive Nazi force, you need a good pair o glasses pal. Modern germans rather cut their balls off and get on some make up while yelling pro migration campaign paroles than stand up a single inch for their land and heritage..
@@anoe1022 were also the first country to push for German unification we were also the first country to play football with them after ww2 We are the only western country to sign hitler farewell card. ( very controversial still to this day) A German submarine sank off the coast of Ireland and we are the only country to ever save sailors from a German sub When we got independence we used German helmets up until ww2 as you could imagine And if you look at Irish rebel songs on UA-cam the old pictures show the trucks with the iron cross. One with a swastika
I suppose everybody is different. This is too fast for me, I preferred the original version which was on their album "Let the People Sing" which I bought on cassette tape way back in the late 1970's.
Cheers from El Salvador, a small country in central america. This song hits to heart as we have also been fighting civil wars against oligarchs backed by the USA.

Solid song mates. I wish I knew more about the history told in this banger of a beat, and in time I can assure you I'll find out more about your heritage.
At 2.42 nice picture of the burned town hall in Templemore. My grandfather witness it and was in the old Ira in Templemore. The black and tans and British soldiers ransacked the town and burned down the hall in August 1920. They killed two of themselves in the town hall. One British private went upstairs in the hall and got trapped with petrol and flames and the other officer went up a ladder to rescue and fell off and was killed.
The officer's name was a Captain Beattie. He was a decorated officer of WW1. It said on the paper's of the time he fell of the ladder and died of his injuries in the barracks. My grandfather said the ladder went sideways and he got impaled on a spike on the railing.
@@72mossy Thank you for your reply. The two soldiers killed as a result of the fire were as you rightly state Captain S.H. Beattie and L/Cpl H. Fuggle. Both soldiers served with the 1st Bn. Northamptonshire Regiment.
Ireland unified is a Free Ireland. The Black & Tans were bad words in my late parents home, the same with my late paternal grandparents & in my home they are bad words.
As a proud Irishman, we must hold our heads in shame because of our feral freedom, our dirty freedom never produced anything except backwardness, as one small example, imagine not fighting against the Nazis in WW2.............proud..................proud me hole
@Cameron Mills I heard all this cowardly rubbish before, us cowards pretending we helped the Allies in WW2, at the recent celebrations of D Day, while the world was celebrating the beginning of the collapse of the evil Nazis, we spurted out some crap about a weather report we gave the allies, as if that is some kind of excuse for hiding behind potatoes and praying. The official state of Ireland during the biggest and most evil crisis this world has ever seen was to be neutral, in fact we were actually slightly pro German, sure there were individuals who had a conscience and left to join but the rest of us creeps hid. Not even letting the Allies us our sea ports, which resulted in many dead sailors. To our eternal shame we remained neutral, let the church abuse our kids and prayed, what a dirty place we are, our hands are red with the blood of innocent people......shame eternally on us
@@peterfitzgerald7734 Not exactly. Ireland barely has/had an army but they still assisted the allies with a few volunteers to join the Allies and they identified Axis aircraft within the vicinity, which they would notify the RAF with as Ireland still doesn't have that many aircraft to it's name.
I saw this band a few years back at the the Irish rose pub in Waikiki Hawaii. Never heard of um before that night and now I am a life long fan. Very talented band full of life and passion. Derek's mission is to keep traditional Irish folk music alive and to inspire the youth to pick up the torch and never let the flame go out. It isn't just the music. It's all the history and legend contained within. It was a great experience because not only is the music fantastic but he also shares so much Irish history. Not only what happened in Ireland but also how much the Irish influenced and spread the culture throughout the world. Legend has it that in Moses youth, the pharaoh of that time considered Irish flute players to be the best in the world and would send for them to play all of his biggest parties. Including a party he threw for a young Moses. I'm half Irish but not connected to my culture and something green white and orange awoke in me that night lol 🇮🇪
It would be funny if this Irish rebel song "Come Out, Ye Black and Tans" was sung by an Irish singer on the talent show "Britain's Got Talent". It would be even funnier if this video was shown in the background on the big screen. Although the songs "Go On Home British Soldiers" or "Rifles of the IRA" would be better because the songs are more unambiguous. By the way, an explain for those who don't know the "Black and Tans" which were mentioned in the song! The Black and Tans (Irish na Dúchrónaigh), officially the Royal Irish Constabulary Special Reserve, was one of two paramilitary groups in Ireland from 1920 to 1921. In January 1920 the British government launched a recruiting campaign for "men ready to do a tough and dangerous job" to support the Royal Irish Constabulary (RIC) in increasingly anti-British Ireland. This government campaign was the idea of Winston Churchill, who was British Secretary of War at the time. As it turned out, there was no shortage of English recruits. Many of the English applicants were WWI veterans. In November 1921, the Black and Tans numbered about 9,500 men. This large number of men quickly led to a shortage of uniforms, so that new recruits were equipped with khaki army uniforms (usually just the pants) and dark green or blue British police uniforms. This mixture of colors led to the nickname "Black and Tans" (literally translated: black and brown), a reference to a well-known pack of hunting dogs from County Limerick. The name persisted even after the group received new uniforms. Officially, the Black and Tans - like the second group, the Auxiliary Division which was just as cruel and brutal - belonged to the Royal Irish Constabulary, but in fact they acted almost independently. Both groups served to suppress and combat Sinn Féin and the Irish Republican Army (IRA) and practiced pro-British state terrorism. In the summer of 1920 the Black and Tans devastated entire towns and villages in Ireland including: Tuam in County Galway, Trim, Balbriggan, Knockcroghery, Thurles, Templemore, Tralee. The center of Cork was burned down. Because of the crimes and atrocities they committed, many Irish still get emotional when Black and Tans are mentioned today. "Black and Tan" or "Tan" is still a derogatory term for the occupiers of Ireland today. (So for... the British) The Irish War of Independence is therefore often called the "Tan War".
These are the lyrics of the great Irish rebel song! I was born on a Dublin street where the Royal drums the beat And the loving English feet they went all over us And every single night when me da' would came home tight He'd invite the neighbors out with this chorus Come out ye black and tans, come out and fight me like a man Show your wife how you won medals down in Flanders Tell her how the IRA made you run like hell away From the green and lovely lanes of Killashandra Come tell us how you slew them old Arabs two by two Like the Zulus they had spears, bows and arrows How brave you faced one with your 16-pounder gun And you frightened them natives to their marrow Come out ye black and tans, come out and fight me like a man Show your wife how you won medals down in Flanders Tell her how the IRA made you run like hell away From the green and lovely lanes of Killashandra Come let us hear you tell how you slandered great Parnell When you fought them well and truly persecuted Where are the sneers and jeers that you loudly let us hear When our leaders of sixteen were executed? Come out ye black and tans, come out and fight me like a man Show your wife how you won medals down in Flanders Tell her how the IRA made you run like hell away From the green and lovely lanes of Killashandra Come out ye black and tans, come out and fight me like a man Show your wife how you won medals down in Flanders Tell her how the IRA made you run like hell away From the green and lovely lanes of Killashandra.

In a perfect world, America and Ireland would be fighting side by side. We'd be sharing stories of our wives (one each, ya freaks) back home with our Irish friends, they'd be telling us about theirs, and we'd be going for beers and just enjoying lives and freedom. But first we must fight.
I'm a Texan cowboy that's Irish and I couldn't help but chuckle at this song. Thanks youtube for the random suggestion. I still don't understand the significance of the history behind this. Is this just a IRA song? Or anti British. I'm assuming it's anti British so that's good enough for me
Its both anti Irish and anti British which most people on here don't realize, hence you will see no anti Irish comments just because folks really don't understand the lyrics.
@@user-ze8yy8jg1f Technically it's anti Irish loyalists and anti Free Staters which was called the "Irish Free State" (the clues in the name) agreed to be the 64 Irishmen traitors (note I use the word Irishmen). So what nationality did you really think were living next to Rosie at the time, did you think they were African or Dutch or something?
@@skippership7 all sides were Irish so that would mean it’s anti to themselves. So no you would use the words free state since they were anti free state not anti Irish
@@user-ze8yy8jg1f Do you actually know what the song is about, if so, tell me. And are you really trying to tell me that Appendix II was not anti Irish?
Some Black and Tans/ Auxiliaries were sent to Palestine by Churchill after their time in Ireland. "Bloody Balfour" as he was known to the Irish, he served in Palestine too. The Balfour Declaration... Can't remember who said it, but it went along the lines of creating a little Ulster amongst the Arabs. David Cronin, author, has a book on all this, from Balbriggan, he got interested in researching it due to his town being burnt as a reprisal attack by the b/tans in Sept 1920. So no, we, Ireland, were not engaged in that conflict, though some Irish served over there with the British
@@codyyates2806 It refers to the British suppressing the revolt in Mesopotamia(Iraq) in 1920. Britain was fighting conflicts in Afghanistan,Ireland and Iraq during the period 1919-1921
