Simon Cowell's limey eyes are smiling at Colm Wilkinson's Irish tenor.

@Jeannenyc57 A wonderful thing is a tenor, tenors are wonderful things...and Colm Wilkinson is the ONLY one who can reach the notes he achieved in this video. He must have channeled Teddy AND St. Patrick himself.

I have seen every movie about the Kennedy family and read every book about them, too (well, the gossipy, interesting ones). However, this song and video says it all. A Kennedy funeral song is worth a thousand words. Happy Saint Patrick's Day, Teddy. Someday, you'll have to let me know the real story of St. Patrick and the snakes. I imagine St. Patrick as a medieval Steve "Crocodile Hunter" Irwin.
