Damien Dempsey – It’s All Good
From The Balladeer of Ireland

John Lennon – Working Class Hero
I am of the opinion that the lyrics of this song should be part of every school’s curriculum. The words are profound and true, unlike a lot of the shite that is pumped into the heads of the young across the globe. Lennon was a working class prophet.

It’s easy to forget just how good these fellas are.
Alien Ant Farm – Smooth Criminal
In my opinion, this is much better than the original. Just sayin’…
