Most Cork song

Fabio

Hi all,

Living away from the People's Republic isn't the nicest thing in the world, there a lot of things I miss about home and often I find myself reaching for the likes of The Frank and Walters when wanting to hear some of the sounds of home.

For some reason "Daisy Chain" by The Franks would be my contender for most Cork song of all.

"Tony Cochrane", again by The Franks, does it too...."Tony had come back from the strand, waiting for the Barrack Street band"...

What are yours?

A multitude of John Spillane songs are very Cork to me.
