Long Balconies – A Lazarus Soul (Irish Folk)

Here’s a wonderful piece of street rhyme from working class Dublin band, A Lazarus Soul, relatively new to the wider music scene. The emotive lyrics speak of life in the tenement flats of inner city Dublin before they were demolished in an ongoing program of gentrification. Rose-tinted spectacles are all-too commonplace, and its certain that […]

Klandestino Palestino – Pro-Palestine Protest Song

The campaign to see justice done in Palestine is gathering momentum. Across our world, organisations and some governments are moving to counter the fascist and Apartheid policies of the rogue state of Israel. As a result, Zionists are becoming more desperate and dangerous in their attempts to smother all truth and protest. One powerful means […]

A Rainy Night In Soho – Steo Wall (Hiberno-Irish Folk)

Recently, a poll was launched by RTE, the broadcaster for the Irish Free State, to find the ‘nation’s’ favourite folk song. Rebel Voice is unsure if the 1.8 million Irish people in the Occupied Six Counties (OSC) are considered part of the ‘nation’ by the Blueshirts who command RTE as insidious moves are underway to […]

The Foggy Dew – Daoirí Farrell (Irish Rebel Song)

“As back through the glen I rode again And my heart with me fell sore For I parted then with valiant men Whom I never shall see ‘more But to and fro in my dreams I go And I kneel and pray for you For slavery fled a glorious dead When you fell in the […]

Iron Horse – Ride The Lightening (Bluegrass)

Here we have the fantastic bluegrass band, Iron Horse, performing their version of the Metallica hit, Ride the Lightening. Rebel Voice is a fan of the way in which some bands can switch genres whilst maintaining their instrumental integrity (phew, what a grandiose statement!). When you listen to this, do you get the weird urge […]

Lana Del Rey – Lust For Life

As Madonna prepares to perform in the rogue state of Israel, thus providing cover for the crimes against humanity being carried out there by rabid Zionism, Rebel Voice wishes to acknowledge the refusal by Lana Del Rey to do the same. At a time when Madonna has come under severe criticism for wearing a burka […]

Luke Kelly – School Days Over (Working Class Ballad)

This is a beautifully poignant song about the terrible way many children were deprived of the chance to enjoy their youthful innocence. It speaks of the young boys who were sent down the mines from a very young age. Many boys were, perhaps, enthused with the idea of joining their fathers, and uncles and older […]

Rhiannon Giddens – Wayfaring Stranger (US Folk)

Banjo, fiddle, guitar, she plays them all and can sing like the most seductive herald ever to emerge from the USA. In this performance, Rhiannon Giddens enthralls us with the lightly gospel standard, Warfaring Stranger. The lyrics and melody compliment one another perfectly to produce one of the most haunting songs you will ever hear. […]

The Bare Necessities – The Jungle Book – Baloo Shines

Hands up who doesn’t enjoy this song. No one? I thought so. This is one of the most swingingest tracks you are gonna hear this side of Armageddon, which won’t be long coming if Trump and Netanyahu get their way. Baloo is in fine form here as he instructs Moglai in the ways of the […]

Luke Kelly – The Galway Races (Rousing Irish Ballad)

Here is an Irish ballad to get your spirits soaring. It speaks of the famous horse races at Galway that begin on the last Monday of July each year.  It’s there that fortunes are lost and few if any ever made. There are fine ladies galore and drinkers and thinkers and stinkers and creeps. There […]
