You cannot sing.

You want mediocre pre-processed, formulaic, fast food equivalent music.. turn on your tv or radio. You want a beautiful work of art that invokes feelings you don't have words for.. turn to the guy on the street corner with a beat up guitar.

Hearing my hero speak so close to his death,both breaks my heart and strengthens my spirit. If we all possessed an ounce of the compassion he had for humankind,this world would be a place of joy.

That guitar has seen a few days.

“I don’t think it has long left” 9 years later he’s still playing it

Bullshite bob !!😂😂😂

Manipulated lies, the truth is that the majority of the slaves came or decended from Ireland/scotland/England not Africa. The TRUE European American.

I'm an Irish-American learning Gaeilge, and the first sentence I understood without subtitles was humorous. It was a video making fun of English names the way they make fun of Irish names and saying them with Irish pronunciations. I realized the subtitles completely different from what was actually being said. The subtitles said "Why do English names look like that?" What was actually said was "Cad é an scéal le hainmneacha i mBéarla?" and it came across as SO much funnier and more mocking, especially with the tone of voice used. GRMA for the video!

the english and british just tried to change and oppress everyone under their umbrella any way they could, it is so sad our history in this country and with modern perpetuation of racism even tho i am of irish and scottish descent i am looked at as an oppressor because i have white skin. when in reality we were in the trenches with "free'd" slaves all of them pushed into slums and poverty treated like nothing treated like laborers. we found a way and we made it out. we were not extinguished as they would have liked

Great vocals, he always gives it everything he's got...fabulous performer and a lovely man

It's the kind of guitar you write an Oscar winning song on.

Not sure if that’s so appropriate wear

Love you

Best book

Genesis 12:3, Zechariah chapters 12-14, Ezekiel chapters 36-38. More reason for Ireland to take a look at better relations with Israel.

I love Napoleon Bonneapart.💛

Such an underrated era.

You made an indelible mark here, Pete. Through your exceptional body of work, you live Forever.

What a babe

The Cromwellian Irish slaves were a different phenomenon from the indentured Irish servants. The Cromwellian captives were sold as slaves by the mayor of Galway for example, Peter Stubbers, following the overthrow of the Catholic Tribes of Galway. He and other administrators of the new dispensation targeted Catholic families for removal to Connacht or worse, especially to work on sugar plantations, and often as sex workers in the Caribbean. The indentured servants, on the other hand, were contractual labourers who worked in houses in Boston and places like that, customarily in the 18th century. Conditions of indentured servants varied according to the contract. The Cromwellian slaves suffered deprivations of the most inhumane treatment; and were not freed until the risorgimentos in Jamaica and places like that united the red legs and the Black slaves, often in blood and certainly in war against the plantation owners. The indentured servants enjoy a different history to this. Later in the interview Mr.Titley is clear about the phenomenon of Irish enslavement.

I’m from Naples (Italy) and when I went to Dublin for the first time I felt at home and thought: “this is a place I could live in”

I came here because of the book and have discovered an amazing lenguage. It is fascinanting to me listening to him and see how we create such an amazing comunication tool. I wish I could read the book in its original lenguaje!

Reminds me of Trigger

Damn

Surely, rising against the Government in 1916 was treason.

Just the kind of thing that put me off Irish in the first place. Leave it to academics to put on an event about humour and there not be a single thing a regular person would find funny. How do you say dry shite in Irish?

they got it wrong. there is NO salvation outside Jesus Christ, for catholic and for jew and for everyone else. There is salvation in Jesus Christ only. It is not in any church, least of all in the Roman Catholic church. They preach a false gospel of works. Salvation is through faith in Jesus Christ, by His grace he accomplished for us on the cross. People cannot send anyone to hell, but God can and will. The Bible is clear about that: all are damned without Christ. The truth is sometimes ugly. But God loves all people, Jews and Catholics alike. He gave His Son for everyone.

Do you have to be Irish to come here?

Yes- The "stance" is- A Poetic Jew-Hating badge!

Thanks! I've always wondered about the story behind the guitar- and it's a great one.

I love Ireland. 🇦🇷
