GUEST,chrisj ADD: Croi Croga from Clann (8) RE: Lyr Req: Help needed on Croí Cróga from Clann 09 Oct 01


I have to say that having listened to that particular track on Clannad's CD 'Celtic Collection' in my local music store, I feel they have slipped a long way away from their original sound. They seem to me to be overly influenced by the recent 'Pop-Celtic',easy-listening stuff that Wolfgang (and others) decry even if they haven't yet descended to putting: a)shamrocks, b)round towers, c)wolfhounds(saving your presence, Wolf) or d) all of the above on the cover. As a moderately good Irish speaker I listened but could not make out the words. Maybe the listener (I almost said 'consumer') isn't really expected to bother or am I too critical, after all I can't make out the lyrics of many pop songs in English either?!
