Dirty Old Town for @customnature.

Ewan MacColl wrote this song in 1949 for the play 'Landscape with Chimneys.'
The Dubliners and The Pogues have done popular versions, and this song is a pub staple.

YESSSS! Listening to this as I unwind for the night, such a pub staple! Love this!
Hope you're having a fun Friday eve friend!

It's a Star Trek night for me... that and singing pub songs:D
Happy Friday to you @artedellavita!

I'm an classic Star Trek fan! I was actually thinking of rewatching the series soon. :)
Enjoy your night, big hugs!

I'm actually watching Voyager right now. I just watched TNG and I'm going to watch Deep Space 9 next.
I just made it to season 3 of Voyager.

Cold nights are awesome for binging on shows! I hope you enjoyed it ☺️

Are we talking original Star Trek here or TNG? I love this cover! So good! You've got so much soul when you sing! :)

Oh shit! I've been anxiously waiting for the next open mic to see if ya might do it. Haha. Also, at the very same time you posted this, I was practicing the pogues intro in my old honner. I knew it years ago and was trying to recall. Bravo, mate. I loved it. Might have opened up Pandora's box of requests from me though. lol

I like having reasons to sing:)
A Hohner what?

Just a little harmonica in C. Classic cheap thing I've had forever. Haha. I would love to learn an instrument. One day I'll dedicate myself to learning.

That would be a good song for a harmonica!

Ever do any Tom Waits songs??

Only 'Old Shoes.' I've tried to play Hold On, but I've never liked my own version.

You do pogues stuff great. I'd love to hear you try some of Wait's hobo/drifter kind of songs. Maybe like 'Cold Water' or his live version of "Cold Cold Ground"..

Awesome!! You rock!

Thanks @soykatonline!
You also rock:)

Very nice cover song @tarotbyfergus.

Thanks @emma28!

Very nice! I gotta check this guy out!

This was outstanding, man. Great way to let that move through you...like it's just native to you somehow.

Great song!!!
