Nice tune. Very listenable. Great melody and hook. A little poppish but I could put it in the loop.

James Vincent McMorrow, Susan Enan and now this. I have a sudden craving for a cool pint of Guinness.

From what I've read she basically quit the music business, got married, started a family, and has no interest in recording any more. It makes me sad, since I really enjoy her album. This is one of my favorite songs from her.

I heard this when it first came out and like it just as much now as I did then.

Great song, great singer. This CD is excellent. I hope she someday puts more music out.

That's too bad, I always like Lohan's voice and thought she enlivened many projects by other bands.

 
That's really a shame. I remember I bought the CD for this song, and after two months, the CD was still in my player - I couldn't seem to stop listening to it!

That doesn't sound like a bad idea at all.  Good song too.{#Cheers}

I'm with you. And I ain't Irish. Just love this!

This CD is worth tracking down, every song is great. Not sure why she didn't put out more music than a few CDs.

It's a very good record from beginning to end. Kind of surprising it wasn't a bigger hit.

The video for this song is great, catch it on Youtube. I hope someday she decides to put out more music.

The ebow-played guitar part at the beginning and the middle sounds like the first 5 -6 notes of Amazing Grace.  Anybody else hear it?

Been hearing this for years here and, while it's rather poppy, it's alright.  What is not alright though is the comical "I went to Cancun" hairdo.

Despite the album title, I can't help thinking Sinead Lohan would make a fine mermaid. Wistful thoughts of 'Local Hero' I suppose.

Funny. I'm a HUGE PT fan (seen them live 10 times and have never once seen Sinead Lohan) but I love this song (and this album) and would never turn it off in favor of PT. Differing styles of music for a differing purposes, I guess. Whatever happened to this Ms. Lohan, anyway?
