Alan Doye from Great Big Sea does a solo performance of Raewyn, the first song he co-wrote with Russell Crowe, at the ECMA Songwriters' Circle in Charlottetown, PEI.. February 2006
"A son and a father should always be talking ....." What a beautiful last line. I had not heard this song until now. I had just read the lyrics, as if it were a poem. These two fathers have written a wonderful song; sweet, sad, yet hopeful words along with a lovely, moving melody. (I recall, I hope correctly, that Russell Crowe and Alan Doyle cowrote "Raewyn.") Thank you so much for this song.
Can't help but love this song as well for it's reality, tempered with sweetness but most of all for it'sability to heal and remind us of what is truly important.. This song came to mind may times as I watched my own Mother, slip lovingly , away.

I love Alan Doyle... he's such a good singer, and i think he's got hair that suits him really well. IF he gets it all cut off i would be so mad.
