Featured bewitched by a song

really into the pogues at the moment, and alexa led me to this sweet nugget

spent the whole night learning the lyrics unable to play

feel like walking into an open mic night and singing it acappella, after a few irish whiskeys of course

thats what i love about playing music though, i don't do it for anybody but me

just a way of getting things out, therapy really

missing it madly

........apparently

 

Love The Pogues. Shane McGowan (RIP) "Dirty Old Town" - classic.

 

if you get a chance, watch the crock of gold documentary

 

one of my favourite irish penned songs, in a mad tuning

 

Hey Charlie, Could only understand about half the words, BUT ABSOLUTELY LOVED the music and his voice!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

hey aqui

glad you liked it !!, very authentic isn't it. The lyrics from what i can tell seems like a guy trying to sow his wild oats after a skinful

totally alien to me

 

Absolutely.

 

Not hard to sing though. I've never heard it before and came in on some harmonies anyway. I'm not sure most guitarists would want to tackle the arrangement.

 

its actually quite an easy one evey, the strange tuning makes it sound more complex than it is
alot of it is open string
