The new Shanneyganock video for Home Boys Home can be
viewed at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WvvEuDOT98Y
It includes cameo appearances by Alan and Bob of Great Big Sea,
former Newfoundland and Labrador premier Danny Williams,
and many other local Newfoundland and Labrador characters.
I think it is currently #4 on the iTunes world music chart.

The song was written by Darrell Power, ex-of Great BIg Sea,
and is not the same as the song by the same name that
The Dubliners performed. The Shanneyganock song is
a powerful expression of Newfoundland and Labrador
nationalism.
