BK What songs do you 'see'? (79* d) RE: What songs do you 'see'? 08 Jan 00


Victoria: At last, another Danny Doyle fan!! "The Moon On Clancy's Wings" is definately another great one & it's also on the "Emigrant Eyes" CD I mentioned. (Written by two Aussies, acc to the liner notes - Jimmy Stewart & Doug Ashdown - surprised me, since it's set in the US) Eric Bogle, of course has also written many that grab me - I almost wrecked a borrowed car in the North of England, driving up to Scotland, foolishly tryin' to learn "Green Fields of France" as we were driving (has other names; "Flowers of the Forest," "No Man's Land," etc.) My wife & I were both ballin' our eyes out. All I could think of was those poor Marines blown away by a truck bomb. Took me years to learn to sing it & mostly get through w/out cryin'.

Cheers, BK
