"Danny Boy" - Instrumental synth-bagpipe cover, by Yours Truly
Me, via YouTube (as Hopalong Ginsberg) ^ | 3/17/16 | Me, as "Hopalong Ginsberg"; Traditional

Posted on 03/17/2016 12:52:36 PM PDT by Slings and Arrows

Here's a little something that I whipped up for St. Patrick's Day. Serve with corned beef and cabbage.

I record all my music under the stage name of Hopalong Ginsberg. This to keep music industry goons from popping ASCAP in me.

For a free MP3 download of "Danny Boy," click either here or here.

For those of you who wish to sing along:

Oh, Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling
From glen to glen and down the mountain side
The summer’s gone and all the roses falling
It’s you, it’s you, must go and I must bide

But come ye back when summer’s in the meadow
Or when the valley’s hushed and white with snow
It’s I’ll be here in sunshine or in shadow
Oh, Danny boy, oh, Danny boy, I love you so

But when ye come and all the flowers are dying
If I am dead and dead I well may be
You’ll come and find the place where I am lying
And kneel and say an ‘Ave’ there for me

And I shall hear tho’ soft you tread above me
And all my grave will warmer, sweeter be
For you will bend and tell me that you love me
And I shall sleep in peace until you come to me

The Video alone was worth the Ping.
Then I noticed this musical sound track. :)

I want this played at my funeral, but I’ll need a closed casket. People would be alarmed to see the dead weeping.

Good job. Do the same treatment for Memory, please. Better without the Streisand.

I want a hardwood casket, because I know that people are going to be dancing on it.

I'll take a look, but I can't promise anything. Some songs just don't work well with the pipes.

I guess when your daddy's drunk and your mama's lonely, you can't catch a break even in death.

As I posted to the legendary troll DannyH upon his zottage.

Oh, DannyH, the kitties, the kitties are calling
From glen to glen and down the mountain side
The summer’s gone and all the roses falling
It’s you, it’s you, must go and I must bide

But come ye back when summer’s in the meadow
Or when the valley’s hushed and white with snow
It’s I’ll be here in sunshine or in shadow
Oh, Danny boy, oh, Danny boy, we ZOT you so
