so this weekend, when i was doing the last few errands for me 'special people' at work, the folks i've been spoiling all month in a spurt of
insanity happy halloween good feelings, i came across two CDs i bought because i've been interested the groups' sounds. one was Immortal, produced by CruxShadows, a band much promoted by John Ringo (in)famous author. i think i was expecting something a bit more Celtic-y, but the sound on Immortal is rather... techno-pop-ish, too much so for my liking. i'll try another CD of theirs later in case i got the worst thing they did by accident. the other CD was a Celtic Thunder CD, which i expected to have a generally faster beat to most of the songs. seriously, you do not need to slow down 'every breath you take' - it's slow enough already. even so, i did find a couple of songs i liked, including 'Willie McBride/ Green Fields of France', by Eric Bogle, lyrics repeated here:
