Well I got my info from Chivalry.com, a good site, but it was most likely a British/English site with more than a little slant. And yes, the obligatory "Kiss my ass" in Gaelic. I have went to take more pride in my Irish heritage since oh, about this time roughly last year, so yeah, my info was bad as my research proved. Ive even went to re-register here as Cumhal Macart. So...yeah sorry if I kinda had an edge. Its fine...but still, heritage doesnt equal knowledge, just influence. |

From Chivalry.com:
The song tells the story of Lord Trevelyan who brought a supply of corn back from America in a bid to battle starvation during the potato famine in the mid-nineteenth century. Unfortunately it was Indian corn too hard to be milled, so useless. However, local people thought it would save them and so broke into the stores, were arrested, and subsequently deported to Australia.
Just thought Id clear it up. makes kinda more sense now, huh?
The song was written in 1979 and recorded by Paddy Reilly. Over the past 17 years more than 400 cover versions have been made .
Just a couple of facts you may care about. |

Hey this is a good version. The first time I heard it was over the phone when I burnt an Alkaline Trio CD with the same cover and my friend got confused so I did a background check, and yeah...its by Berlin. Im not arguing anyone about it not being by Berlin, Im just restating. The Alkaline Trio version is really good, go check it out. |

Dont insult other peoples music without an argument basis. If you have a valid argument, then state it but don't simply say something sucks. Thats just illogical. |

| Dashboard Confessional – Again I Go Unnoticed Lyrics

i think this song is about how sometimes your relationships and the things you do together eventually get bland and meaningless because they occur so often, and he is still hanging on to the intimacy of them, but that the partner is giving up.
Note:
Sometimes your partner or you just give up trying though and think that all is lost and really it isn't because there wouldn't be a relationship unless you really connected anyway. you ahould just keep searching, it'll come back. I know from experience. |

I had this exact expierience about 3 weeks ago. During school, i had a girlfiend who i'm just insane over and we were doing fine until one day she just breaks up with me on a Friday of course and is with some other guy on monday, so i was rockin' some of DC's more mournful songs for a while but then she realized something and told me she still wanted a relationship with me, so we got together to see each other and pretty much had this expirience(but no, i didnmt "get any"). So i can really connect with this song because I know what he's talking about. |
