Good interpretation. Pity the sound and pic. are out of sync.

Thanks for this. Thanks for all the words too. For me it's a wonderfully contradictory song with comic "oirish" lyrics and the the most beautiful heart-tugging melody.

What a heartless ...( 1 year ago by colinjohnrudd)
What a heartless man you are davesiomha! You obviously know little about the heart... but lots about petty bigotry with your smug criticisms,,,a heart is a secret place where you can never go with such a nasty attitude!
A song is free and anyone can sing it you silly man.

Quite right... A song is free and anyone can sing it, in fact everyone is duty bound to give a song their own personal take on it, and he does a grand job, well done. As for davesiomha, you really have no concept of what music is and what it's for, pity really.

davesiomha, you're correct, this song should be sung with heart. Comments should be posted with intelligence.
Look at Collin's eyes, he's got heart in this song.
Read your post, it comes up lacking.
Collin, excellent job on this song. You really captured the spirit of the song. Very nice.

Wrong key, bad phrasing, incorrect words:Danny? Try Denny...Sorry Col, it's back to the drawing board. Don't people do research before doing things like this?

Sorry Col, didn't mean to come on so strong.
Of course you're right; you do it the way you think is right, and that's your business. I think I'm too familiar with DM's version which is pretty good don't you think. I love this song as well, it reminds of my younger days; it's like an anthem for better times in the late sixties and seventies, not this modern shite we have to put up with. Perhaps I'm just an old and bitter pedantic git who's lived in a better time. Keep on keeping on...

I've lived in better times too John but I don't intend to be "an old and bitter pedantic git"...I wonder if Roy Orbison or Buddy Holly fans had a vicious dig at DM for recording their classics eh?....and I give my music away for free!
