The article fails to mention that it was first recorded and popularized by John McCormack in 1914 and states instead that the Connaught Rangers were the first to record it, which is incorrect.

I've been told it's about brothels in Soho...is this true? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.10.209.178 (talk) 22:25, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Town signs

If I recall right, when you enter the town, the sign there says : Welcome to Tipperary, you came a long way, which must be a back reference to this song. Maybe it should be mentioned somewhere? It has been quite some years since I have visited Ireland so maybe someone could check if the sign is still there or stolen by tourists ;-) -- 195.14.244.171 (talk) 23:48, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
