Tam Lin hands down has #1. I'd say #2 would be Julia Delaney.

If we really mean the whole world (instead of just ITM), but still, you know, tunes, I'm going to say "Kiss the Maid Behind the Barrel" and "Payne's Choice".

The Kesh AKA Kerrigan's Jig, and Bella Ciao. Now, I'm a Cape Codder whose forefathers were mariners; maybe it should be, We'll Rant & We'll Roar. Oh well, you decide.

I can't bear it. I've posted once but I'm posting again to nominate my "reserves." I don't care if the thread gets locked as a result. "Over the Moor to Maggie" and "The Wind that Shakes the Barley." :twisted:

Old Hag, You've killed Me takes top honors easily. After that it's tough. Maybe Idir Deighric Agus Breo. But probably not. Probably Sligo Maid at the moment.
