I think you may have hit the Jimmy Nail on the head with that, cj.

It is totally "Ã la canadien" to abhor racism in any form, even Wombles.

Hasn't it got the word "faggot" in it? Maybe they're not allowed to play it on the radio in Canada.

Pffft a bunch of pikeys except for Kirsty McColl (from Croydon guv).
No surprise the Irish singing about being drunk and locked up in the drunk tank, betting on a horse, talking about being high on drugs and of course dreaming about Ireland. FFS even the NYPD doesnt have a choir. Pipe and drum band yes but no choir, and to make it even worse the NYPD pipe and drum band didnt even know Galway Bay so played another tune and it was edited to make it look like the tune fit the beat.
WTF is that all about?
If you want something ****ing up then let the Irish do it


BTW I do like it and have that Pogues CD
