Thread Name: Lyr Req: 'girlie' songs
Subject: RE: 'GIRLIE' SONG LYRICS WANTED
Baba; Being a big fan of female singers (Joanie Mitchell, Triona Ni Domhnail, Natalie Merchant and Lui Collins being among my favorite) I play and sing songs from a female perspective quite a bit even though I am mere mortal and a male speciman at that. Among some of my favorites are: Broken Hearted I'll Wander; Weeping, Sad and Lonely; The lowlands of Holland; You Turn me on (I'm a Radio); most of Lui Collins stuff including The Silkie. Scratch the service of a Civil War re-enactor who is also a musician and likely you'll find someone singing from the female perspective even if they're not aware of it. Another good one; Johnny Has Gone For A Soldier. Hope this helps. Reguards, Neil (Irish Sergeant)
