  • brilliant stuff!!

  • Lovely playing and choice of tunes! The second tune is indeed 'The Belles (not bells) of Tipperary' but also with the alternate title of 'The New Policeman'. I really have to stretch my imagination to hear 'Billy in the Lowground' in 'The Belles..' though.

    Try these two relatives: 'Farewell to Connaught'-'Billy in the Lowground'. They are much closer.

  • The first is Sean Ryan's Reel.

    The second is known as The Bells of Tipperary in Ireland and Billy in the Low Ground in the United States where it's a popular Appalachian tune.

  • if someone chooses to use the irish form of their name, then that is their name, and it is not translatable. when someone says their name is seán and you ask to pronounce it, you dont say that it is pronounced "john." the equivalent is an intellectually stimulating factoid, not a socially relevant piece of info.

    likewise, if they were chinese, and their last name is 王 (pron. wang), you do not say that the name is pronounced "king," as that is the equivalent in english.

  • English for Mhaonaigh is Mooney. Not my opinion, I was told by an irishman - yes, a 'Mooney' - ;)

    Cheers
