[stnicholas54]

Great Irish singer is our Mary  :-)

[Babylolo181]

I'm an Irish singer, I'm sixteen.. She is STILL one of my inspirations. She is beautiful and her voice is amazing. Like for support of the Irish music industry !!

[apzmulli]

Nah @dannywodniak your still Polish..Any1 can get a Irish passport it will still say Natinality polish and by the way a true irish person will never refer to themselves as a paddy..its a insult!! Go back to Poland!!

[dannywodniak]

@apzmulli think what you want

[sailingwest]

@apzmulli Its idiots like you that give us a bad name ,you are a disgrace to Ireland and the Irish.

[rylaneirl]

@sailingwest agree

[yabadiba]

@apzmulli you are a wanker!

[Catherine6050]

My youngest girl is called Katie by me and me only and she's across the world and this song makes me cry when i think of her. Lovely song reminds of her so much xxxxxxxxxxxxx

[sailingwest]

@Catherine6050 My 19 year old daughter is moving to Australia in 4 weeks and I'm missing her already, can't imagine how you feel.

[Catherine6050]

@sailingwest I,m sure your daughter is just leaving now, my girl is in Oz as well and loves it, I hope your girl sette=les well there xx

[deisebabay]

Called my little girl katie after this song was playing in the labour room when she was born... Lovely song!!

[apzmulli]

Sorry Danny but u will never be a Paddy ur still Polish!!!

[dannywodniak]

@apzmulli Is that right? I hold Irish passport now so Irish born in Poland. I can play for Irish national soccer team with no problem. Be gone

[sailingwest]

@dannywodniak Don't waste your time on him Danny ,if you feel Irish you are Irish, Z kim sie zadajesz, takim sie stajesz

[dannywodniak]

@sailingwest Very good point.

[Evaaa897]

this song is beautiful,never tired of listening to it

[deefed1]

Fabulous mary

[443superman]

plucking makes for more creativity than strumming what do you think mary?

[MrBradforce]

Ah! Mary, I'd listen to your music anywhere. I have three of your CD's one each in the car, office and the kitchen... Just lovely to listen to when I'm on my own, gives me time to myself and the time to think. One of our best female ballad/ folk singers in Ireland..

[WARKING1945]

my mother used to sing this song to me when i was a child

[ogarafan1]

just love this song....always brings a tear to my eye.....amazing voice....no matter what mary black sings she always puts her all in2 it. If you haven't gone 2 see her in concert it's a must see....lovely woman and extremely witty and charming.

[dublinbarterclub]

Fond memories of this song:grew up listening to Mary Black as my Dad loved her music.He got me and my sisters to learn this song and sing it at family functions.Love Mary Black's music still and i'm 20 now,have her Greatest Hits on my ipod.

[jkjlmrj100]

[dannywodniak]

Well well... Iam Polish living in Ireland for the past 6 years and since I listen to a music like this I'm proud to say I'm a Paddy now. Ireland became my new home land and believe it or not I love it more than any other country in the world.

@dannywodniak welcome,,wer glad ur here :):) xx

[limrich08]

@dannywodniak nice to hear  Djenkuje bardzo from an Irishman living in Poland

[ZadZadrack]

If ever I was given a choice of having a £60,000,000 win on the National Lottery, and being given a Singing Voice like Mary Black's, I would never hesitate to opt for the latter. lol. However, on second thought, it would be better to take the £60 Million, and spend it in IRELAND on promoting all the GREAT SINGERS OF TODAY, AND THE YET UNBORN GREAT SINGERS OF TOMORROW. Now, that would be a more realistic ambition to achieve. lol

[deboeahshasha]

That was brilliant i loved that hugs and all the stars wee deborah sha sha xoxo ireland

[TheWelshlovely]

Absolutely love this. Thanks Mary Black. Amazingly unique voice xxx

[KtCalvFlt]

I'm Katie, and have been away from home for 15 years. It's nice to know how much friends still remember me back home enough to send me a lovely song like this. Thanks Walter!

[fltstfrnd]

@KtCalvFlt - And the smile upon your face, the tears upon your cheek, and the night sky on the window your heart calling out to me. Come running home again Katie, come running home again. You're welcome, Katie - Walter

[ZadZadrack]

If ever I had to utter the words 'THANK YOU', it would be addressed to Mother Nature for giving us MARY BLACK.

i have a friend who has a daughter called katie.......this song always reminds me of when my own daughter brighid and katie were childhood friends...the haunting melody trails back down the passage of time...beautiful.

Black's voice is wonderful as always but as ever, it is Sinnott's understated arrangement that truly makes this a great, moving track. Top marks.
