Thread Name: Irish songs which aren't Irish
Subject: RE: Irish songs which aren't Irish

I think that "Still I Love Him" was collected from Suffolk, does anyone know for sure?

And there's also "Irish" songs written by Mudcatters from all over. I know 'cos I've written a couple myself and I'm only 1/8th. Irish, and I'd just love it if I heard anyone say that they are Irish songs.

It's great that such a powerful tradition not only keeps singing but also spreads around the world.
