Just came in to post this… What a cracking song. Powerful even.

It’s only a week old but this will be the one. We’ll get Brian Eno to produce it.

Irish singers. English song.

Duly noted…

There are some great English folk songs but they are hard to find.
Christy Moore’s favourite Lord Baker is one. The Sinead o’connor version is superb
