Thread Name: What did your Dad used to sing?
Subject: RE: What did your Dad used to sing?
A few thoughts...
In the house as a young kid, some Opera thing that always sounded to me like "Harley Double Vic and Vee an Treenia"
In the car on a journey, it might be. When father painted the parlour Mick McGilligan's Ball Sweet Violets I've Got Sixpence.
Also, at home, around the house. A few from a John McCormack record, Oh The Days Of the Kerry Dancing, etc.
Annie Laurie Flow Gently Sweet Afton Vicar Of Bray
Tom Bowling Drake's Drum Old Bold Mate of Henry Morgan
At the moment, Jerusalem (Lift Up Your Gates and Sing) is popular.
