I posted this on BR Collabs for the Paddyfest , Ralph wrote this while working in london on a building site , he shared a room with some Irish lads , and they would get a little homesick now and again , so he wrote this about them

Acoustic guitar and doubled vocal

Ahhhhhhh, thats what I needed, very nice song, very nice job here Rob.  I absolutely love songs like this, I could listen to fingerpicking all night.  Thats a heck of a fingerpicking pattern there, thats fancy stuff, no simple Travis picking there.  Lovely, lovely, lovely.  Great singing too.

Oh, yeah, Rob! This works for me. Beautiful song, never heard it, but really like it from first listen.

As usual, a perfect job on the recording and I love the way you deliver an acoustic tune.

Just awesome!

Beautiful in every way ....  song, singing, guitarplaying, recording, production ... but most of all the performance.

Lovely, just lovely. Another great cover, great playing and singing Rob. Agree with Mark, the recording is spot on, so crisp and clear. The guitar playing is wonderful, Tharek should love this when he hears it.

Cheers,

I'm giving this one a bump after hearing "Cookie Jar" - boy, you really have the vocals sorted on this one - flawless!  Beautiful song.
