Editor's note: I'm starting to believe that the only difference between the Polish and Irish is that the latter have better looking hats. Think about it...the jig and polka are pretty similar, both cultures imbibe way too much in the spirits, have bad music (save for Chopin), play second fiddle to a superpower, are provoked to senseless anger and pretty much are goofy as all hell. Seeing as I'm half Polish and everybody who is white in America claims an Irish heritage we can see why I turned out as I did. The music on this record is standard fare but the echoing vocals make this sound older than 50 years old but doesn't make it any less enjoyable and actually makes it as good as it is.

You forgot to mention that the Irish are better looking. Other than that, I think you're observation is spot on. :-0
Irish and better-looking go together about as well as hawt British chix. We all know better than that!
