Anyone […]
Anyone who has ever been in a university dorm with someone who owns a guitar will be all too familiar with this classic. It must be up there with Dylan’s Blowin’ In The Wind as a favourite of drunken young hipsters everywhere across the Celtic Isles. Sadly, this song is relevant today as we face […]
