You know, I just listened to this today for the first time, while I was at school and I was at awe with it. So, I got on here to find it and listen to it again, and come to find out you had it the whole time. I feel like such a dummy he he! This is definately a beautiful song!

@bubbbb0 Isn't it magnificent? From the moment I heard it I couldn't help but love it. The emotion he puts into it each word always amazes me. I won't deny that I've gotten a little teary-eyed while listening to it. Anyway, I'm so glad I posted it as I don't think it's anywhere else on here.

@ClassicDamsel Yes and the high notes that he always seems to hit are just mesmerizing! Oh, and don't worry I am with you on that, I too got a bit teary-eyed, and not to mention very goose pimply at the same time! Thank you so much for this!

[ClassicDamsel]

@bubbbb0 That they are! Glad you had the same reaction. :) You're very welcome!

Gordon MacRae was a magnificent singer, and has there ever been a lovelier Irish lass than Maureen O' Hara? She was the loveliest rose in all of old Erin!
