In this historical analysis of “The Foggy Dew,” we'll see that the song is a lot more than Conor McGregor’s walkout song. The history behind this hundred-year-old song is a long and bloody one. To fully understand the Easter Rising and the emotions of the lyrics in “The Foggy Dew,” we first take a very general overview of some of the atrocities that occurred in Ireland under British rule. We then cover the 1916 rebellion for Irish independence, called the Easter Rising, and the song’s sorrowful commentary on the event.
As always, there’s only so much we can fit in each video, and a lot of interesting information gets left on the cutting room floor. Check out our sources for more info!
