Yes i hear music in most things. In particular peoples voices.

But oceans and rivers  also do it for me. There amazin to my ears.  I have a profoundly deaf person in my family.

He watches my mouth when singing, feels my throat, or guitar. Picks up sounds in so many ways.

The Dawn Chorus. The best music ever especially now with the temperatures rising.

Hi Jets,

I think the Men here along with yourself should take a bow

for your awareness of this trait in your woman.

Well done Lads.

Hi Badeye,

So good your song. We need these constant reminders of our planet.

Recycle, recycle. To me its easy and  the most effective way to help our planet.

Strange how we cannot nurture our planet which  has nurtured humans for millions of years.

Hi Phil,

This song reminds me of how good our gut instinct is.  As in all aspects of life

Delighted your Wife's blue eyes still shine for you.

Hi UYK,

No offence whatsoever, i was a wee bit worried you were never going to get started, LOL.

Have you ever seen the chorus to "Fields of Athenry" mimed? We mime the words. Looks funny when you get a crowd to do it.

If "Fishes were Wishes" is a song im always saying ill learn. I will now after hearing you singing it. Lovely song.

Well done to you.

Thank You topdown",

I hope you had a great night away with your Segosha!

Im knackered  { very tired }myself after 4 days of a family celebration.  3  weeks to recover untill the next one.

Loved " Goin up the country" Ahh, The  Memories.

I have to say i loved the blues one even more.

I have used the word " Banjaxed "  meaning { Broken beyond repair } Here on the forun and had to explain what it meant.

I must admit i love the Dublin Slang.

Fáilte Marcalan,

What a wonderful twist on Immigration. My own sister who has been here the last few days, expressed her feelings about returning to the ould sod. In 30 odd years she has seen a remarkable improvement on this Island.

Your song reminded me of this one which i like to sing. Annie Moore and her brother were the first to step on to Ellis Island from this Island of Ireland. This link tells her story.

http://ie.youtube.com/watch?v=AcxIdYbKu7Q

America has been incredible with there acceptance  of the Irish Immigrant. But your right  Marcalan!  in your very clever observation ,  There is a big turnaround to return home.

Well done to you.        EM! Recording please.

How suddenly and swiftly our world can change for all of us.    Dwell on all that was good about your Dad, this will sustain you in your loss.

Your Mom and all her family are remembered in my prayers.

Fáilte IneedMcfly,

Great lyrics, great insight  for one so young.

I only learned how to nonconform as i got older.  Your song reminded me of this song from many moons ago.

http://www.ocap.ca/songs/littlbox.html   Same message i feel.

Well done, keep up the good work.

Old Doll.

Lots of people hate the Margaritaville song, But it is a great song to line dance to.

Ive pushed my tush to lots of great songs. Cottoneyed Joe, Bootscootin boogie, Black velvet etc,
and i reckon this one was my favourite.

Salsa is now taking over here. Whole load of new stuff to learn. I just need more time. lol
