In my opinion, this is the best version of Danny Boy that I've ever heard. RIP Eva.

Thanks for posting it!

9. Have you ever heard Jackie Wilson's version of Danny Boy? I can't

find one to link up to so you have to take my word for it, his voice, his singing, added a dimension to the song that I just can't describe.

14. To me, Jackie Wilson's voice was like the voice of God.

6. I've never heard of them but I plan to listen to all of these clips.

The Rifles of the IRA sounds like a helluva protest song:

"They shot down wives and children
In their own heroic way, but
The black and tans, like lightening ran
From the Rifles of the IRA."

15. I Like DKM

But I loved Mike McColgan's voice better than the new guy (if you could call him new, he's been with them forever now, huh?). Not that I wouldn't like to see them yet again (I've only missed 1 pgh show), they're great live, super fun.

McColgan's new group, The Street Dogs, is good. This video rocks http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pMJ9DZrSyN0

18. I can't let this thread die without sharing these two videos with you:

They are by the Rankin family from Canada. The first is a beautiful song in Gaelic. No, I don't know what it means but I believe that this is what angels sound like. The second one is one that you can dance to. They really raised the roof with it. Enjoy!
