Wow ~ this topic has brought out the best of the best in ever post! It's always a treat to hear Joan Sutherland, but then to see an almost forgotten favorite of mine right below it was the icing on the cake.

There is probably no more emotional subject than mothers, which has inspired thousands of songs. And yet a search of this thread seems to show that it has never been proposed before. It's amazing how sometimes the most obvious things can escape us.

We may have had this before but Dirty Old Town has nothing to do with Ireland. It’s about Salford in Lancashire.
