Kiwi Folk Songs NOT to Ditch (32) RE: Folk Songs NOT to Ditch 09 Jul 97


Well, it looks as though I have a lot of music to go looking for now. :) I tend to look for artists and albums that come pre-recommended by another fan.. when I'm not bootlegging the music directly from them! :) Hm.. so maybe _that's_ why I'm so attracted to Celtic music - I'm a romantic at heart (but a bit cynical).. so I like the songs that appeal to my emotions. And every now and then, I like a happy ending.. But I'm especially a sucker for laments like "Back Home In Derry", written by Bobby Sands, and the sweet flute or violin pieces that wistfully, gently, sweetly rip out your heart and drop it on the floor - like "If Every You Were Mine" by Natalie MacMaster.
