Hey Rez,
I suggest using the "search" feature on this page. 6th item from the left, and simply search "back home in derry" and set to display "show threads"... Then watch what pops up!
Enjoy your reading... yes, this has been discussed before and no doubt will again.

I don't know if Gord officially approved the using of the melody from the Wreck for this song/tune... I've read a good deal and I'm still not sure.

There are a couple of youtube offerings that are well worth watching/listening to also.
