Most is putting it strongly. Most songs used tunes from The British isles that had been around for centuries. But Irish immigrants definitely didn’t write most of the songs themselves. For one, they were a minority even in the Union Army. In the CSA they were even fewer.

@@eurekapatriot8351 Coming from Capitalism? :V Hot take, but okay. Also I thought your debunked Black Book was 100 million. Either way, yinz count the starvations of the Holodomor and 5 Year Plans as victims of Communism - and even the death of Nazis as victims of communism. However, y'all don't count the horrific actions of capital like the Bengali famine and the the starvations in Africa where Nestle owns the water. Y'all don't count the potato blight of Ireland, or the Transatlantic slave trade. Y'all don't count the millions in poverty in the United States, the "richest country in the world" as capitalist deaths - while you'd count those save impoverished as communist victims if it happened in Russia or China.

Does anyone know why this tune celebrates Martindale, Butterfield and Morell, 3 Union officers whose service can best be described as adequate to mediocre? I did some digging and it appears all 3 were senior commanders of the V Corps of the Potomac army through 1862, so is it possible this was a song written by soldiers of the V Corps?
Yeah, a surprising amount of US civil war songs come from Irish folk songs and 1798 rebel songs. And a lot of more recent Irish rebel songs come from US civil war songs.
Socialists on their way to make some of the hardest covers of American patriotic songs (I don't agree with their politics but god damn can they make music):
I love the tune and the feel of this song, but I wish it was more socialist-oriented. I'd love to see someone rewrite it to fit that, it probably wouldn't be hard.
Honey, wake up, Monsieur Jack just uploaded
I so love your Union Army songs!! A revolution unfinished
A Revolution betrayed.
May the union along with unions stand strong
Yes
Babe, wake up, new Monsieur Jack video just dropped
Whenever the rebs say they want to succeed, we just gotta remind them with another good ole March to sea

Unconquered we shall remain...

(Irish)

It’s cause most songs written on both sides were written by Irish immigrants.

Oh, it is the biggest mixup that you have ever seen!
My father he was orange and my mother she was green!
drop everything, Jack just uploaded!
Considering the tune, would you think about doing The Wearing of the Green?
One my favorite songs to sing when I did living history
Fucking. Huzzah. Union and Liberty Forever.
This is very epic. The Union is epic as well
awoken from your slumber? nice!
Been waiting for this one for a while.
The best rendition of this song. Good job !
Love this song! We’ll sing this song once more when the American workers fight to throw off capital!
are you a dirty commie?

beautiful
This song is too little known. Thanks for playing it.
OUR GUY IS BACK
Three cheers for the Fifth Corps! Hip hip hooray 🥁
Was this actually composed specifically for the V Corps?
Been wanting this one for while
Потрясающе, прекрасная песня
Work in progress
Soldier: On the Blutarch side of 2Fort
We like to show how we dance
And how we perform in battle
Whenever we get that chance
We will fight to blow the RED Team
And their base to smithereens
You have not seen anything quite like
The classes of BLU Team
Everyone: The classes of BLU Team
The classes of BLU Team
You have not seen anything quite like
The classes of BLU Team
(Kazotsky kick animations play)
A few robots may slip past us
To the bosses we may fall
Our intel may get stolen
Or the payload cart may halt
But win or lose, expect the servers
To be bursting at the seams
Because everyone wants to join in with
The classes of BLU Team
Everyone: The classes of BLU Team
The classes of BLU Team
Everyone wants to join in with
The classes of BLU Team
Soldier: We have Heavy the gigantic
And Medic the bulletproof
There is no competition
To be had with TF2
But add a Soldier to the roster
Of those who will take back Steam
And you get the top nine players on
The classes of BLU Team
Everyone: The classes of BLU Team
The classes of BLU Team
We have the top nine players on
The classes of BLU Team
Soldier: Now, good luck, my fellow teammates
We’re about to start the show
Treat everyone with kindness
Or you will be sent back home
Gaben, give us your power
And wherever Rick May might be
He’s never lost his place among
The classes of BLU Team
The classes of BLU Team
The classes of BLU Team
Rick May won’t be forgotten by
The classes of BLU Team
Cheers, comrades! Onward, we shall be victorious!
How many songs riff off of Wearing of the Green? Great job Mssr. J!
Is this the same tune as Overalls and Snuff?
Does anyone know why this tune celebrates Martindale, Butterfield and Morell, 3 Union officers whose service can best be described as adequate to mediocre? I did some digging and it appears all 3 were senior commanders of the V Corps of the Potomac army through 1862, so is it possible this was a song written by soldiers of the V Corps?
Do it again Uncle Billy!
Bro could you"cover a la huelga" nice video
In E Major
Is the tune rising of the moon/wearing of the green?
Yeah, a surprising amount of US civil war songs come from Irish folk songs and 1798 rebel songs. And a lot of more recent Irish rebel songs come from US civil war songs.
@@MandalorTeSiit yeah, there's a version of "Yellow Rose of Texas" that the Irish took and made into "Fenian Record Player".
@@MandalorTeSiit There were lots of Irishmen on both sides.
But mostly the Union side.
👍🌹
It would be nice if you sun Cumann Na bann
Please do Salvo El Poder, it would make every Maoist so happy :)
I'm gonna try to rewrite this as an anarchist song.
@The Crazy Cat Gentleman I second that.
Hell ya the union and Liberal Democracy forever
