Thanks, but I've already got the cd. I've heard it referred to as an "exile's song" and Manus certainly has a theme of exile sorts of songs going in his original stuff, as many of the Irish singer-songwriters do.

I've always referred to it as the "Coming and Going in Circles" song.

IMO, the very best duet by Manus and Karen was their first ever from 'Sidewaulk', Oh Mo Dhùthaich. One of the most stunning duets Manus has ever done.

I just popped the CD in, and listening to it is already giving me a headache. Manus composes lyrics in Donegal Irish, which is why so many people's eyes glaze over when you ask for translations of his original lyrics.

I think someone asked me to translate it once.

Coming and going, listen up...

go away...

then come on come back...

listen up...

The drip sound of the effects machine makes me insane...and then there is that truly obnoxious effect of something pounding metal...

Anseo...

agus chi...

repeat endlessly until your brain explodes...

sorry, just can't do it after two glasses of wine. I can't perform bleedin' miracles.
