Simple, ancient, and thunderous.
My apple tree my brightness
Anyone watching Peaky Blinders will have heard Grace (barmaid and undercover copper) singing what I guess is the traditional version of this song, or poem as it originally was. Nice fiddle action in Sinéad's version.

It's Irish! So there. The original version of this is one of the many songs with a Funky Drummer sample.
The best track from an outstanding album.
This song comes from a poem written by Sinead's father to her deceased mother. Sinead did the poem justice, and so did the Dead Can Dance cover.
