Music of Ireland

Irish Music is music that has been created in various genres on the island of Ireland.

The indigenous music of the island is termed Irish traditional music. It has remained vibrant through the 20th, and into the 21st century, despite globalising cultural forces. In spite of emigration and a well-developed connection to music influences from Britain and the United States, Irish music has kept many of its traditional aspects and has itself influenced many forms of music, such as country and roots music in the USA, which in turn have had some influence on modern rock music. It has occasionally been fused with rock and roll, punk and rock and other genres. Some of these fusion artists have attained mainstream success, at home and abroad.

    Irish Whiskey

    by: Cherry Poppin' Daddies

    Caught in a revolving door and my lungs are suffocating.
    Working hard is my reward and my job is so frustrating.
    I'm a martyr to myself and a hero to my family. I can feel a breaking point, a longing to be free
    But instead I'll hang in there and suffer with the rest. I'm a drunk and a sentimental man
    So dust off a bottle of your best Irish whiskey and drink with me to departed friends, To departed friends
    In the middle of the night I wake up, my heart is pounding
    I expected more from life than a house and TV watching
    Cuz I wimped out on myself, take it out on my friends and family
    Cuz they don't appreciate I sacrificed my dreams
    Hey there guys I'm not the enemy it's just shared frustration that makes us fight
    It's a long way to drive to not make any money, merry Christmas, at least we gotta try
