Irish Music

[Azrooh]

It's St. Patrick's day, and I don't think this topic has been made...
Who are some of your favorite Irish groups?

For me, it's:

-The Dubliners http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2JhVWsc5Xgg

-The Irish Rovers http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5rGhb0pAK30

-Flogging Molly [american group, but whatever, they record Irish songs - except for their newest single Don't Shut Em Down, which makes sense since it's about Detroit] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9o3RN7-7ijw

American group, Irish group, there's hardly a difference

I like the Dropkick Murphys.

I like the Dropkick Murphys.

I'm not so sure I like how heavy they are... They're definitely nice to listen to, though.

How the **** are The Pogues not here?

Also, Irish Music is my favourite after Barroque.

I have mixed views on Irish music.  I like the overall sound, the instruments and all that, but as soon as I hear a southern accent..?  **** 'at!

Good stuff!

Southern accent?

 

[Cheesus89]

From the Republic of Ireland, ie. "Down South".

Oh.
I sometimes forget Ireland is divided, I just can't see it as more than one.
If Ulster is more your thing, you might like this band, they might sing in Gael but they are form there.

 

[Cheesus89]

Nah, not my kind of music.  I don't really like the sound of Gaelic either.

 

[Eктωρ]

You are mad.

 

[Cheesus89]

Aren't we all? 

 

[Eктωρ]

Indeed!
