We'd love to get this song into the charts, and in doing so, supporting a very worthy cause and also making the point that we are proud to sing the songs of Ireland.
Please purchase the single from the below link from iTunes or from Android Play Store. It is important that it is this version that is purchased and not any other version on iTunes or Play Store, therefore ensuring that the proceeds will go to the charity, as well as targeting the sales to help get the Ballad of Joe McDonnell to Number One in the charts! Your assistance with this is very much appreciated.

I first heard this song in Dublin. Every person Irish person stood to attention with their hands over their hearts and tears running down their faces. I have never been so moved by a song. I am South African of Irish decent and am proud of the Irish and Ireland.

[@vcrossCelticfc]

I first heard it at the Mayfair in Glasgow, I was too young for the Barrowlands. Although I did manage one in Dublin and another one on the south side of Glasgow which was huge. I remember we could sing WT songs at the games but not any more. Strangely (or perhaps not). I decided to watch the Glasgow City fans during a recent old firm match and was honestly shocked they were singing the BBs. Complete double standards. I remember the late 80s, early 90s before they ckamped down on the Cs, sadly the U's don't seem to be fairing much better even though they have cut out the ss and BS et al.

Beautifully done ..with a wonderful full concert orchestra...the message remains the same ..freedom of expression by Irish people in England is still severely punished financially by the Media courts , no defence as they will claim that all your defence bundles are lost and will side with the English legal team and will bully you and intimidate you if you contact them for help in an Irish accent...even though you are severely ill....it is the worst human rights violations imaginable for decades and not a word from the English media despite being emailed thousands of times but no response is forthcoming..the phone lines are not available and you are powerless ..Do Not Buy English is a media recommendation and sanction because of this crime against humanity ,cruelty and brutality
