It's not science, It's magic. You have to love it to make it sound good. You have to know it to love it. You have to play it to know it. New strings, body heat, a singing heart, instrument as...
There's another Irish song called "Colcannon" which is pretty much the same as First of May.
Well, at least you know where to find it.

Also known as Rose Conlee or Rose Conley. The roots of the ballad are very old--- the gist of it is a young man who kills his lover and throws her body in the water-- related to songs called the...
Yes, he's in Albuquerque.
