My own music inspires me.

Going to keep it Irish for these next few songs.

Something different from me. Just love this song. Irish - American. Thing is everybody used to say the lead singer looked like me. Had never heard of them when that was said. He is a handsome devil. Maybe 15 years ago or so. I always had the sknhead and the goatie beard. Even had a Boston Celts basketball top. So I got what they were saying when I saw him.

I found this one for you Cuchculan

 

[Cuchculan]

Sure is different. Wow. Some songs should be just left alone. Don't think I could get into this version. Over here in pubs, years ago, on the hour, every hour, jump around came on, and you had to jump around or get kicked out.

One of our finest songs. Oscar winning song. Did post some music by Glen Hansard above with his band, The Frames.

As i get older my musical taste gets more refined. Love Leonard Choen singing. Didn't begin singing till he was 36. Before that he was a poet. Which sows in his lyrics. Love this song. About a couple going through life together. from when he first sees her, to the first date, to getting married, to having kids, to getting old together.

My favorite Chris Stapleton song...

 

[Cuchculan]

I guess been Irish and all of that the whole country music thing is not something we listening to much. A few people would be into it all. Growing up the only such singer that was always played in this house was Johnny Cash. The father loved the man. Still have all the albums. Plus I have added to it myself over the years. Was also some Hank Williams here in the house. But that never appealed to me much at all. Singing about dogs that have just died and women that have ran off with other men. Do like me a bit of Steve Earle too. Not exactly country music.

The Script. They did a good cover of Crazy world. Had the lead singer of Aslan on stage with them. Aslan a band I love. As do most Irish people.

 

[Cuchculan]

As it is still raining outside. Second day in a row. Why not post a song or two about rain.

 

[TruthHurts]

Gordon LIghtfoot is great!

 

[Cuchculan]

My favourite song by him. Sort of music you would hear in Ireland by a singer called Christy Moore. Will post a video by both.

Now for Christy. This is him singing with a band he sang with before going solo.

Just close your eyes and chill out. For the next while nothing else matters in the world.
