There's a Falklands War song that has been on youtube for more than 3 years and not a single soul knows the name of the song nor who made it. Some of the people in the comments who have been asking for information about it are like, half of the comments are asking about the name of it and the other half making fun of the people who ask the name because apparently no one knows, including the OP by saying: "If i knew the name, i wouldn't call it "Falklands war song".
Since the quality is somewhat good, it wasn't hard to find out the lyrics, but even if you search for them on google you won't find anything about the song or it's singer(s), except for videos of it calling it "Falklands War song"
Also, it's important to state that the song is very similar to the song known as "The Battle of New Orleans", by Johnny Horton. And because of that, there's even a video that calls it "Battle of Falklands", but it's obvious that it's not it's real name.
I would help you but I'm an argie, jokes aside the song sound very similar to other militar songs,in the comments they compare them with other military songs like Johnny Horton Battle Of New Orleans and a mexican song about La Batalla Del 5 De Mayo, so what we can think from this information is that the rhythm was widely used for songs referring to Wars. But the most interesting that I found in the comments is what someone wrote and it says that the song was composed by someone named Harvey Shield but when looking for the name of the supposed singer-songwriter and something relate to the falkland nothing appears.

I made a post on the Lostwave subreddit as I was suggested and seems like a british gentleman by the username "wildneonsins" found out its name and who made it! He did a great job on his research! As he said, the name of the song is "Battle of the Falklands" which is a clear reference to the Battle of New Orleans. And the singer/band name is Johnny Bull. I'm afraid I didn't find literally anything about the obscure band/singer
Here is his answer to the post: "I'm British, too young to remember The Falklands War first hand, haven't heard of heard of this song before, but it sounds convincingly British 'mates on a jolly' 80s (possibly very early '90s) Sun newspaper tabloid jingoism.
Sounds like it could be something recorded by a radio station breakfast show team as a topical laugh, or off one of those records of 'risque' comedy songs for/by squaddies.
fake edit: just tried searching some of the lyrics on discogs
'because of that, there's even a video that calls it "Battle of Falklands", but it's obvious that it's not it's real name.'
Meanwhile on discogs, there's a Pub Rock / Novelty record called Battle Of The Falklands by Johnny Bull (split with Force 1 Red Alert on Victory Records -not the '00s emo/metal one ) .
