Zuzana said...: Lovely song and a amazing pictures; did you take those? In Ireland?
I am not familiar with the singer.;))
Yesterday though I got to make an acquaintance with The Chieftains, introduced to me by my Irishman.
I have to say, what an incredible music!:)

The Chieftains are a well known traditional Irish music group,while The Dubliner's are an Irish folk music group who have also been popular here for many years - your Irishman will be familiar with them too. Sadly their main singer Ronnie Drew died earlier this year and "Love's Own Sweet Song" was on his last solo recording.
I took the sunsets in the Murcia region of Espana, they are always amazing there!; 10 August 2009 at 18:42
Maria said...: Well, I'm familiar with Ronnie Drew & the Dubliners since my childhood and that song is part of the backdrop of my youth. It's the kind you'd hear your aunts singing at wedding - especially with a 'few on them'. Ronnie Drew's voice is a bit of an acquired taste like the Guinness, but once you acquire the taste for it, but once acquired, it is never lost. That was most enjoyable!; 22 August 2009 at 05:12
