| Ted Leo and the Pharmacists – A Bottle of Buckie Lyrics
| 18 years ago
|
Well, no, it has nothing to do with Northern Ireland. As has already been established, Buckfast is called "Buckie" in Glasgow too and the Orange marches are prominent in Glasgow as well. Just because similar phenomena is present in Northern Ireland, doesn't mean it's an exlusive reference to that when the rest of the song blatantly refers to Glasgow, where the same terms are commonplace.
Plus, in an interview in Pitchfork, Ted Leo said himself the song is about Glasgow. |
