I am Australian, and my ancestors are mainly Irish. I hear this song in 2022 and I grieve for my ancestors. They didn't all come out here like this song; but I understand a lot of history through this song. I live each day knowing the First Nations people of this land were treated no differently than the Irish. I am a rebel.

[@cianoc8211]

Like lots of us in Ireland, I moved to Australia during the 2008-2014 recession and was proud to meet Australian-Irish lads like yourself. Our cousins.

It's great that he died of hunger. it must have been fucking agony to commit suicide like that. And for nothing! Ireland is still Ireland and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland is still that. He was a bit dim-witted, wasn't he? Like a silly Japanese kamikaze. What a silly boy.

I certainly recognise strains of that exceptional track. RIP Gordon. You gave us some fantastic songs.

[@poorpaddy7803]

I think Bobby Sands used the classic folk process when he wrote it, and nicked the melody from what we now call a 'banger" of a tune. RIP both himself and Gordon

Christy Moore is an absolute legend, I wish he'd come to Canada so I can see him. Im tempted to jump on a plane to anywhere though.

Love Christy Moore. My grandmother was Irish and although we are Australian my family has a saying when someone is being a victim or being badly treated and putting up with it. We say with passion. “They don’t have enough Irish in them”.

We have a big problem in Australia with the circumstances of our First Nations people. Our country, mostly doesn't understand colonization.
