Subject: RE: Peace in Ireland: A Song Challenge
The Northern Ireland Office had an add on TV a few years ago which used the Cat's in the Cradle as the backdrop.

It ended with father gazing into his sons coffin while the band sang

'Oh my son was just like me yeah my son was just like me'

Very affecting I always assumed the family featured were protestants because the mother had a feathered haircut!!

Such are the Irish psychoses.
