Not to everyone's taste, but I love it. RIP, Kirsty.

Heard that on the radio on the way to my cousin's house.

I'm from an Irish immigrant family, so that could have been ME if granddad had gone to 'Mericky' instead of Scotland!

Thanks, Grandad! Whew.

"I could have been someone .."
"Well, so could anyone."

More Kirsty. Her dad was the folksinger Ewan Maccoll. Tee may know.

Wow!Flashback to my younger years! I loved the Pogues (didn't understand a word they were singing, at the time!) and lately, with these internet "radios" (Pandora et al) we've been revisiting all kinds of our favorites from the late 70ies and 80ies, and had a Pogues marathon while cooking Xmas dinner.
This one is one of my favorites too!
