Upon speaking to a good friend of mine about the student protest, held the other week against the proposal of a rise in college fees, we both agreed that it was a very emotional affair, whether anybody admitted it or not. Tens of thousands of us, Irish or otherwise, young, broke,  and coming together in an attempt to stay educated, refusing to consider the prospect of emigration without a fight. With such dedication and passion, the future of Ireland could have startling potential if the Government could clear the way for us a little bit and clear up their mess. We were listening to his ipod at the time, and when this song came on it was instantaneously deemed the most appropriate given the conversation we were having.

  2. I know!! If you don't listen to the words, the music still applies perfectly, and if you're just watching the video, it's totally suitable as well! I thought it was deadly :)
