    Great songs ... (Whatever the musical genre) ... Songs with substance ... Songs that strike at your very core and give you goosebumps or seriously positive feelings every time you hear them ... Songs that offer up something that makes you think about a situation or an event from some other perspective ... Songs that give you the feeling that it's good to be alive ... Songs that make or help you empathise with anothers situation ... Songs that make me think "I wish I'd thought of that ... or ... "I wish I wrote that" ... Songs that ask of folk "what the F**k are you doing with this precious life of yours, and why are you spending so much time leading such an unhappy unfulfilled existance" ... Songs that make people think of all the crap that's going on in the world at the moment and how we CAN change things for the better if only we get up off of our apathetic rear-ends and actually do something about it ...

    Hi Johnny,

    Larry Guild is going to be a guest on Ciaran's Celtic Music Radio Show tonight between 5 and 7. It'll be a chance to hear what the man's been up to since we last saw him, and you can email the show to say hi.

    Either tune in to 1530AM or go to http://www.celticmusicradio.net and click on the "Listen Live" button on the top right of the page.

    Hi Johnny, yeah I spent years trying to avoid the myspace thing - guess the hype and stuff annoyed me + I knew I'd waste lots of time on it like I do facebook!  However I'll admit it is very handy...I've already got 3 gigs out it

    You still spending most of your time playing up North?  Hope things are going well.

    Maybe see you at the Vale sometime x
