I always liked the Real McKenzies cover of their song "Sailor Man".

Song means heaps to me.

Let's throw some whiskeys over, and make some bad decisions?

We both got a spare kidney, and our livers seem bored.

How about this criminally underrated folk punk band. Couldn't find the raw sounding Peel Sessions version which was much better. That's some good simple chords and lyrics though. Gets right to the heartstrings.

Dropkick Murphys are quite good too I find. Even though there's a movement to shit on them out there because they aren't actually irish.

Those crafty fuckers the clash ripped off the music and came up with this tune.

Agreed. They have some sweet connections, though.

It took me years to realize that was The Clash. It was odd, I had heard that song continually on the ole FM radio. Almost hard to believe the single success they had in those eras near the end of the band. Always hearing "Rock the Casbah" now.

Yeah, they do kinda look like a bunch of poofs, don't they? I'll say that was punk when It was a music and not a style.

Now there's some good ole Shane MacGowan before the Pogues.

Ok, now we're getting serious. I fucking LOVE SHANE! I named my firstborn after one of his songs. Asiling is the most gorgeous name in the history of names.

That shite means dream rite? Yeah I figured that, cause I watched that Christy Moore video many times. It pissed me off that I couldn't find a very good version of the Pogues or Popes doing that song.

Make sure to name the next one after me
