This is a true story that happened in 1976, saddest song I have ever heard and the words cannot help but to bring a tear to your eye.
A real Irish song.

An interesting question -
What makes a "real Irish song"?
Does it have to be written by someone Irish?
Sung by someone Irish?
About an "Irish" topic?
All of the above? One? 2 out of 3?

Interesting to see him playing a diatonic accordian,, a sign of European folk music but also favoured in Irish music.

it is about timing of beats, plus it is usually a story line, it doesnt have to be written by someone Irish. Many jigs were written for the Uilleann pipes etc who were not Irish but love the Irish melody.
