Sovereigns bright

In case you’ve been a little on the non compos side, today is Saint Patrick’s Day. You know—when all the amateur drinkers come out to slosh down green beer and tell really cheesy jokes, which get cheesier in direct proportion to the amount of beer consumed.

I’ve already shared my thoughts on the day, the Irish and the country. So today I’ll just give you another of my favorite pieces of Irish music, which has so many layers of significance for me (including the youth hostel in Bordeaux). There are about a squillion versions of this one, but I keep returning to my homies.


Crank up the volume, pour an inch or so of good whiskey and just let yourself get into some real Celtic soul.
