great song, very catchy!! love it!!! great voice!!! almost as catchy as "Sands Of Aberdeen", which is still my number 1 favorite Jed song, it's addictive!!!

[WildeNotesMusic]

I'm just the opposite. LOL I love the 4/4 versions, whether jigs or shottisches. This is a great, very upbeat interpretation. Love it!

[Vandenbu]

Good-- but much prefer the 3/4 versions of this.
