new favorite pogues song
I once read that Shane MacGowan wanted this song to be the follow up to Fairytale of New York but was overruled. MacGowan has a way of writing new songs that sound decades old, this is one of them. My mother was born and raised on the Shannon near where this was set so always brings back memories.
