All the above are great, but.... the Irish and others of a whimsical nature have a sense of humour, so how about:Lannigans Ball and The Rocky Road to Dublin - just for the fun of singing them.
Sister Josephine and Bridget and the Pill - just for the fun of watching Irishwomens faces start beaming.
Try to get hold of a recording by Sean Cannon. Have a good time.
