Rationale of fair use for Clare's Dragoons audio sample
This is a sound sample from a commercial recording. Its inclusion here is claimed as fair use because:
 * It illustrates an educational and historical article that discusses the Clare's Dragoons song from which this sample was taken.
 * The section of music used is discussed in the article in relation to the song's lyrics, and contains part of the song's chorus.
 * It is a very short sample of the song, less than 3% of the original audio of a very much longer recording, and could not be used in any way as a substitute for the original commercial recording or to recreate the original recording.
 * It is of a lower quality than the original recording.
 * It is not replaceable with an uncopyrighted or freely copyrighted sample of comparable educational value.
 * It is believed that this sample will not affect the value of the original work or limit the copyright holder's rights or ability to distribute the original recording.
 * The audio sample is a copyrighted work. Copyright laws apply to this work. Should a free or public domain sample be located, it should be used in place of this audio sample.
 * The use of the excerpt is in good faith, and its inclusion enhances the quality of the subject article without reducing the commercial value of the recording from which it was drawn.
 * The sample presents part of the chorus towards the end of the song with vocals and music from the warpipes as well as the orchestra.
 * Lyrics alone are inadequate to describe the song, and presenting the sound of this song alongside lyrics is necessary for a complete understanding of its nature and its contrast.
 * The song is of historically significant being written by Irish revolutionary Thomas Davis.
 * This is a rare version of the song, as all other recordings of the song are folk music.
 * There is no other samples from the Clare's Dragoons song used on Wikipedia.
