The saddest song I have ever come across is a very new one written by Deidre Scanlan and included on her inaugural and just released CD.

The song is titled Dunblane and is about the tragic occurrence of chldren and teachers who were shot in Scotland a couple of years ago.

American catters will relate to the many similar occurrences in the USA.

When Deirdre performed this song in Dublin about 3 weeks ago, at the Goílín Singers Club, there was a stunned silence. It was the last song of the night and people had difficulty getting up to leave.

See her Web site or contact Nenagh Singers Circle for details of how to obtain this unique CD.
