Well, it's Richard Thompson's birthday
So, in his honour, I thought I'd link a few clips on YouTube. He's probably my favourite singer-songwriter. Unless you count Andy Irvine, maybe.
Any road, here's "Beeswing" and "Oops, I Did It Again" (no, that's not a misprint ;-). And Christy Moore singing "Beeswing," as well.
"Beeswing," which is thought by some to be about Anne Briggs. One of my favourite songs.
"Oops, I Did It Again," from "1000 Years of Popular Music." Surprisingly, it's pretty good when sung bysomeone who can actually sing someone who's not Britney Spears RT.
And, because the embedding's disabled, a link to Christy Moore singing Beeswing with Declan Sinnott backing. Apparently Frank Harte always wanted him to sing it. What he's done with it is quite interesting.
