It's the sort of thing I might have hoped to post out of my sometimes oblique sense of humor...but who knows. Maybe there are brain lesions to consider.

Do you have any idea of the pluck it takes for me to sit thru even a Muppet parody of it? The first time I saw the clip, I said, "Screw it," and nuked the clip before it barely got started.

What with you and 'Danny Boy', and Dubh and 'The Quiet Man', there are few Irish cliches left for the rest of us to enjoy without the feeling that some disapproving old git is waiting in the wings to tut at us.
Sheesh... (See avatar for ersatz :rolleyes: emoticon)
And whether the blood be highland, lowland or no.
And whether the skin be black or white as the snow.
Of kith and of kin we are one, be it right, be it wrong.
As long as our hearts beat true to the lilt of a song.

Danny Boy is just SO overdone here in the States. It's the epitome of Irishness...if you play something authentic, you are scoffed at and told to play something really Irish, like Danny Boybuddhu wrote:What with you and 'Danny Boy', and Dubh and 'The Quiet Man', there are few Irish cliches left for the rest of us to enjoy without the feeling that some disapproving old git is waiting in the wings to tut at us.
. As for Dub's aversion to The Quiet Man, I think it's because deep down he really wants to be like the John Wayne character. I can so totally see him being all "Sean Thornton"
