Ireland dances through the silence

UK: Our Queen has died, we all ask you a minute of si- The entirety of Ireland:

A video framed by the Irish tricolor shows a man dancing energetically beside a car at night, overlaid with the captions “UK: Our Queen has died, we all ask you a minute of si-” and “The entirety of Ireland:”. Derek Warfield’s lively Irish rebel song “Get Out Ye Black and Tans” abruptly turns the requested minute of silence into a celebratory dance, joking about historical Irish-British tensions and Irish indifference to mourning the British Queen.

He'd wear the lyre drums to beat the loving English feet of Athalobos And every single night when we'd all come on tight He'd invite the neighbours out with his chorus Come on, shuffle like in Tarnes, come on, give them a play like a rand Sure you I'd play you one bitters down the planders
