Hi Sharpi
A few I've used that seem to work well with the bodhran:
Crooked Jack, Irish (a quickly paced tune of the Star of the County Down)
Queensland Drovers/Overlanders, Australian
Danny Deever words by Kipling tune by Peter Belamy. Tune is sung at in different timing than the drum. For the drum I use a death march.
Swag All on My Shoulder, Australian
Langford Weaver, Irish, see threads on versions of the Carlton Weaver or Nancy Whiskey
Sorry Sharpie, there are others that I used to do but I can't recall them at the moment, getting rusty.
