#Irish Scottish welsh stranger things amuses me A LOT

[corrodedcoughin]

Thinking about the Metallica cover of Whisky in the Jar & how much Eddie would love it…. (It’s no Thin Lizzy version but it’s Very Good)

ITS SLAPS you are RIGHT (but it’s still no thin lizzy). I feel like the cover is a gateway into exploring more thin lizzy for him, Rosalie gets added to some of his mixtapes I feel it in my bones.

Like he KNEW about thin Lizzy but didn’t give them /huge/ attention then the Metallica cover dropped and he started paying more attention? Which then maybe pulled him into Nazareth and Saxon?

Idk maybe MAYBE there’s a st Patrick day hour on the radio of Irish music and the Metallica cover comes on followed by thin Lizzy then the pogues and the undertones? And Eddie makes an Irish mixtape then dips into Scottish and eventually makes a ‘Celtic’ one and tries to claim Irish or Scottish or Celtic roots because he’d be one of those people even though he hasn’t had any direct descendants in over 100 years.
