    "comment": "A \"Jackeen\" is a derogatory term used by people from other parts of Ireland to describe someone from Dublin. The Irish city traditionally had a strong association with Britain, and when Queen Victoria visited Dublin, folks there waved Union Jacks as a welcome to Her Majesty. This led to them being referred to as Jackeens.\n\nFontaines D.C. singer Grian Chatten, along with the rest of the band, left Ireland to pursue his music career in London. Here, he explores the transformation of their Irish culture and identity after moving to a different country.\n\n\"It's this kind of mutation of Irishness or loss of Irishness as it exists, or fails to exist, in a different environment.\"\n\n\"Jackie Down The Line\" came together almost instantaneously when Fontaines were working on a different track but got stuck. They called it a day, and just as Chatten was leaving, he heard bassist Conor Deegan playing the song's rumbling bassline.\n\n\"I had the melody come to my head before I'd got to the door,\" he recalled. \"I turned round, and we had the song basically done in about 20 minutes.\" https://tinyurl.com/552nbbdj",
