If there's any song that will reduce any Irishman or anybody with an Irish heritage to tears, that would be it.
Bagpipes also seem to stir something ancient and forgotten within every Celt for some reason. I've never been able to explain why but it definitely evokes strong feelings. It's something like a call to countrymen to gather for some solemn reason - a battle? a funeral? I just don't know. I do feel home though. And then after about 15 minutes of the droning it's time to put a hole in the cursed thing.
