Man On The Clapham Omnibus Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 Eric Bogle: 'Now I'm Easy' gives me a huge lump in the throat. I've seen him a couple of times on stage in Nettlebed, Oxon. He doesn't tour here now though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norman Verona Posted November 21, 2012 Author Share Posted November 21, 2012 Green Fields of France can bring more than a lump to my throat. A friend of mine who runs Fagans in Sheffiled, once sang it A Capella at the end of that charity do with the jazz band and Capstick. Tom is a big man of Irish ancestry. He has a powerful voice. There wasn't a dry eye in the house. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Man On The Clapham Omnibus Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 Yes it is very moving - I marginally prefer Finbar Furey singing it although it's Bogle's work. Furey's voice is so rich and poignant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
