That was great Lynn. And I really enjoyed hearing you singing it too.
Happy St Patrick's Day to you too.

Thanks, everyone, for your responses.
I really just wanted to commemorate St. Patrick's day. I recently re-learned this song, and only in the process did I recall that I had known this song a child. It was fun to look at it again. As a kid I was always confused by the "cockles and mussels" - I sure didn't know what a "cockle" was and why was she selling "muscles"? and why "alive"?
I'm still working on an instrumental arrangement, there's a lot of potential there to do some really pretty embellishment, but I'm not there yet.

I think that St Patrick somehow drove all the snakes out of Ireland, which would make him one of my personal favorites among Saints. Haha - I'm terrified of snakes.
And thanks for you kind words about my singing - I don't sing often, and it is hard to combine that with fingerpicking, but once in awhile I manage a little something.

Well done Lynn that was really beautiful.
The last time I heard that song was probably at school and that wasn't yesterday! :laugh:
I see you are also wearing the correct colour of outfit for St Patricks' day as well.
Thanks for sharing.
