Sing when you’re Irish

Ireland suffers from an ‘identity crisis’ and that’s why ‘Ireland’s Call’ is played at international rugby matches.

Sing when you’re Irish

The Irish relent to the minority to keep them happy. ‘Amhrán na bhFiann’ is the Irish national anthem; not ‘Ireland’s Call’. If more Irish people spent time away from their country, they’d understand the meaning of their national anthem. Your forefathers didn’t lose their lives to be singing a ‘substitute’.

My national anthem is ‘Advance Australia Fair’ and I sing it with pride. The country is Ireland.
