GUEST,Com Seangan Songs that offend you (169* d) RE: Songs that offend you 01 Feb 05


I dunno. Offense is in the mind of the listener.

My own young fella was doing a busking job outside City Hall in Belfast and started his repertoire with The Fields of Athenry. He was politely advised to move on by a well-intentioned local girl passing by. The eejit never associated the tune with Celtic Football team or with Nationalists. Apparently, it assumes blasphemy proportions in parts of the North.
