Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Mary McLaughlin - A Gaelic Christmas
Oh, that editor bit was just part of the description of the songbook -- I thought it was you saying it because of the lack of quotation marks around that part.

I apologize if you feel like I wasted your time. I didn't specify which songs because from what I can tell, McLaughlin has done her own versions of the songs, even the ones which have already been done by others -- adding her own verses. So other than Do'n Oíche Úd I mBeithil, the only other song I'm not seeking lyrics for is the one McLaughlin shared with me -- A Oíche Bheannaithe.

And let me add this clarification -- I've done a lot of searching for lyrics, so it's not too likely that I've missed any lyrics others will find with a quick online search. I was just hoping that someone on mudcat might have specialized sources which the general public is unlikely to have.
