Five on Friday

In honor of St Patrick's Day, I'm enjoying some of my Celtic and/or Irish favorites this week!

1. Love You 'Till The End ... Pogues ... from P.S. I Love You
    This would be another one of those songs that instantly makes me smile. Almost involuntarily. It also makes me take a happy breath. I don't usually listen to all of it though, because I have a thing about repetition. This one gets a little long for me.

2. If I Ever Leave This World Alive ... Flogging Molly ... also from P.S. I Love You
    Cause, you know, just in case. :)

3. Drunken Lullabies ... also by Flogging Molly, but not on the soundtrack
    I always think their songs are going to be different, based on the instrumentals in the beginning, which I love. Then they start singing. I don't love all their songs, but enough of them.

4 Dueling Bagpipes .... The Chieftans
   Because St Patrick's Day needs a little jig.

5. Braveheart Theme...Braveheart
   So, I know Braveheart was technically Scottish, not Irish. But they have Celtic influence in the film. Also, technically, I don't drink beer, green or not, I don't drink whiskey, I don't speak Irish or Gaelic. We have green Kool-Aid and we read silly Leprechaun stories about Rings of Truth and Gold. So, my music gets to be whatever I choose, as well.

Remember, Five on Friday is on Trav's blog. So head over for more Friday songs!
