the bloodiest battle was when the 2 Irish brigades met, both would not run 😢

How are you gonna play Kelly’s eyes brigade and show a map of the confederacy not including Missouri

Amazing 👏 🤩 one of the most beautiful English song I have ever heard

Cheers for including the lyrics with the song. Thanks from Ireland

Ireland's Independence Twas' Assured 2nd Time's a Charge

For clarification, this is not a “war song”: It’s author David Kincaid was born in 1957, and the song’s tune is from the folk song Rosin the Beau. The unit it makes reference to is fictional by Kincaid’s own admission, and is probably inspired by the real life Washington Blues Company of the Missouri Volunteer Militia led by Joseph Kelly, though this was only a company (50 or so men), never a full brigade (around 2000). This also coincides with the Irish the song mentions coming down to Missouri, probably the real life 7th Missouri (“the Irish Seventh”) and 30th Missouri (“Shamrock Regiment”) Infantry Regiments. Additionally, the flag seems to be a variation of that shown in the whimsical Gods and Generals of the 24th Georgia Volunteer Regiment, which served from before the Seven Days Battles all the way to the Appomattox. The 24th Georgia was about as Irish as most of modern Boston: Only it’s commander Robert McMillan and his son were Irish; the rest were prominently American. Of the 2 surviving flags from the 24th Georgia, one was a “stars and bars”, without an Irish Harp. The misconception of this being a “Confederate Irish Brigade” stems from straight misinformation from Colonel St. Clair Mulholland of the 116th Pennsylvania Infantry Regiment, who wrote a history of his unit in the Union Irish Brigade, where the 24th Georgia were incorrectly labeled as Irish. Mulholland was notably not a Confederate, and so couldn’t know that this was false. Nor could Ron Maxwell or Ken Burns, who were filmmakers and not historians when they mindlessly parroted this in their respective films. This is not to diminish the presence of Irish Americans in the Missouri conflicts or the greater Civil War (who fought in a lesser but no less notable extent compared to the Union Irish units), but the exploits of Kelly’s Irish “Brigade” and the 24th Georgia Volunteers (now forever misnamed as “Cobb’s Irish Brigade” by Ron Maxwell) are mostly fictional.

Interesantísima canción. Gracias por subirla

hey johnny remember me ol friend never knew you were uploading patriotic songs nice:)

This is not a folk song, because we know who wrote it - his name was Stephan Foster. He wrote many of the most popular songs of 19th century America including Oh Susanna, Old Folks at Home (Way Down Upon the Swanee River), Beautiful Dreamer, and My Old Kentucky Home amongst others. He was born in Pennsylvania and died in New York. This is *not* a "Confederate Folk Song." It is not a folk song, and it is from the north.

upload dawlat al islam nasheed next bud😎

Nice cutting of a certain word from the second verse. Doesn't help your cause of "it wasn't about slavery" when one of your favourite songs has a lyric about killing n*****s. Grow up

This guy not only deletes comments but REPLIES to comments that aren't even his! What a loser! Take the L and admit your ancestors died to protect slavery, and didn't even succeed!

The Confederacy never controlled Missouri, Kentucky, or Western Virginia, eventually the state of West Virginia.
