Re: 6 Nations


Swing Low is bizarre. A stadium full of posh English people singing a plantation slave song with absolutely no sense of irony. What's that all about?

Swing low is almost as annoying and pointless as “Play Up Pompey” droning on and on again for 80 minutes.

Re: 6 Nations


The abolition of slavery in UK predates the formation of Rugby Union by approximately 70 years. Its a good communal song without orchestration for obvious reasons, so I'm not sure what the problem or even the irony is.
