Turlough Songs about Angels (62* d) RE: Songs about Angels 21 Aug 04


Fran and BFG,

I remember the "story behind the song" that Gerry told. He said he'd written it for his father. Anybody who has ever seen Gerry perform, can imagine that, as a child, he was hyperactive. His father had invented a story to allow him to get rid of all this excess energy: he told him that, every night, angels went to a ball, where they danced so wildly that they lost some of their feathers. So Gerry used to run around every night before he had to go to bed, hoping to find one of these feathers.

T.
