What's the song stuck in your head right now?

only knew their biggest hits but 3 days ago i heard this song on power.fm and i i am abusing it...


Nice song. His voice gets better and better with age. I didn't like his screeching voice early on
 
Mama, she has taught me well
Told me when I was young
"Son, your life's an open book"
"Don't close it 'fore it's done"
"The brightest flame burns quickest"
That's what I heard her say
A son's heart's owed to mother
But I must find my way
Let my heart go
Let your son grow
Mama, let my heart go
Or, let this heart be still
"Rebel, " my new last name
Wild blood in my veins
Apron strings around my neck
The mark that still remains
I left home at an early age
Of what I heard was wrong
I never asked forgiveness
But what is said is done
Let my heart go
Let your son grow
Mama, let my heart go
Or let this heart be still
Never I ask of you, but never I gave
But you gave me your emptiness
I now take to my grave
Never I ask of you, but never I gave
But you gave me your emptiness
I now take to my grave
So let this heart be still
Mama, now I'm coming home
I'm not all you wished of me
But a mother's love for her son
Unspoken, help me be
Yeah, I took your love for granted
And all the things you said to me, yeah
I need your arms to welcome me
But a cold stone's all I see
Let my heart go
Let your son grow
Mama, let my heart go
Or let this heart be still
 
Dust in the Wind - Kansas

I have no idea why ...
 
Never heard the U2 one before, so gave it a listen -



Shares a name and similar theme to the folk song, but isn't the same song -



Prefer the folk tune, but then I never was a big U2 fan to be honest.

Beautiful song. Very soulful.

Definitely it is a brilliant song. That's my favourite arrangement too, Daoirí Farrell is a fantastic musician....one of the very best of the current generation of folk singers.

Best bouzouki player this side of Andy Irvine too -

 
She's on fire, and she burns through the night at the speed of light
She's on fire, with the heat of the beat right beneath her feet
She's on fire, and the name of the game is to fuel her flame
She's on fire fire fire fire fire

Awesome musician, first time I've ever seen that instrument. Very cool song about a white hare :)

Yeah it's an interesting one, a Greek instrument that was introduced into Irish folk music in the 1960s. The tuning and style of playing is very different than in traditional Greek music of course.
 
Had a 12km hike on Monday. This was the last song playing on the radio before we got out of the car, so was naturally in my head for the next 3-4 hours…
 
My 8-year old kept singing it so now it's stuck in my head:

"young blood, yeah you want, you need it, i'm just a dead man walking tonight"
 
Well, after reading the title...



Pretty spiffy video too. Brings me back to being stationed in S. Korea in my Army days.
 
Lyrics "song".. I'm a big fan of Jutro and Linda, and this track slaps very hard:



No lyrics I've been listening to this a lot lately. Just good chill vibes and a good melody:
