It intersssierte me who sings the song and what it is about this song. The path led to Michael Collins and his life, and do work in the IRB / A and the goosebumps still holds. A man stands up for his ideals and to know when to stop. Unfortunately I have found no live recordings of his speeches. What I would appreciate most is that you have written how and why the song was created. A song with a real history and depth, reacted with a good time for our music.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1690481404661891565.post-36043255791144931022013-06-17T06:59:38.875-07:002013-06-17T06:59:38.875-07:00many thanks for this song.

A man stands up for his ideals and to know when to stop. His story was filmed and I've read a lot of him. Unfortunately I have found no live recordings of his speeches.

Very powerful and moving song and beautiful country.2WheelerFredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04140383689107494033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1690481404661891565.post-77298846415703490822010-10-31T12:44:26.226-07:002010-10-31T12:44:26.226-07:00I just discovered your band through watching my ne...I just discovered your band through watching my new favorite TV show "Sons of Anarchy." That opening scene is very powerful and the lyrics are well written. I have searched the internet for your album "Home of the Brave" to no avail. After reading your blog it would seem that that is due to some kind of red tape with EMI. That is a shame. I implore you to do what you can to either resolve the legal issues or re-record a live version to put up on iTunes. I am certain it will sell extremely well. Thanks for working the deal with the producers on "Sons" to allow your music to be used, because it allowed me discover you guys.<br /><br />Thanks from Nashville, TN,<br />JustinJustin Allennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1690481404661891565.post-52694616505264536172010-10-29T10:05:48.709-07:002010-10-29T10:05:48.709-07:00I too learned of your band from the Sons of Anarch...I too learned of your band from the Sons of Anarchy opening scene. And I am completely blown away, always loved the Celtic rock/punk scene and Irish culture, not sure what took me so long to find Black 47, but I'm glad I did. <br /><br />Much respect from a new fan in San Francisco,CaManrajnoreply@blogger.com
