Definition of a mine? Hole in the ground with a Cornishman in it. Steve Knightley obviously knew this one. Show Of Hands are brilliant, a wonderful mix of traditional folk idiom and social commentary.

@DarkeningStorms your point being? "Wales" just means "foreigners". The German for "Italian" is "welsch", which just means "foreigners". "Britain" just means "land of the Bretons". "Brittany" means exactly the same. So what?

My ancestors were Cornish people who came to South Australia to mine copper. Cornish ppl build many churches and opened the country up for others to follow. They were happy here but it was very hard at first :) Great song!

Looks like some people have forgotten the meaning of the name "Cornwall." When literally translated, it means "Horn shaped peninsula of foreigners." The Saxons got it.... So they must be cavemen.

As a proud Yorkshireman, I certainly don't hate the Cornish! Great people, great county, great song and a great band doing it.

@CornishNeverEnglish no such thing as the english parliament troll.

@15niall yes well done....your reply was truly insightful....you are a traitor to the niall name, now fuck off out of this cornish video

15niall

@3tangle3 Idiot.

15niall

@3tangle3 No, a lot of Cornish people are after independence. Alot of people have already stated this fact on this video alone. Seriousely, don't contradict me when clearly you have no idea what you are talking about. Perhaps you should embark on a little research. Secondly, kindly don't accuse me of being 'condescending', when firstly, you clearly do not know what it means;I was stating only fact. Nothing I said was incorrect, everything you said was incorrect. Condescending enough? True enough

WHY is their so much hatred of the cornish..........the descendants of king arthur shouldnt deserve such hatred....unless you all really are brainwashed into thinking you are pure saxons or normans :S

3tangle3

@15niall "grow up" ...surely you need to grow up if you are being so condescending...they arent after independence...just want their very ancient and effective stannary parliament....you may do well to do some actual research on cornish history.
