Danny Boy
« on: June 10, 2011, 09:32:23 PM »
I do hope Jimmy sings Danny Boy at the festival.  He did that so beautifully while on the cruise.  Some tissues were being passed around on that.


I would get down on my knees and beg but I may never get up.  This is the best I can do.  Pleeeeeeeeeeeeease.

Billie, I think Laura hit it right on when she requested that Jimmy sing Danny Boy!  It certainly was powerful.  You were also a huge contributor, getting the music for him.  Not easy to do when you are out on the "high seas".

Billie has told me about Jimmy's absolutely awesome rendition of "Danny Boy" and Dan and I would really LOVE to hear Jimmy sing this at the Festival this year.  Since Billie has noted that she can't get down on her knees to beg, I am offering to do it in her stead.  I WILL beg and I WILL grovel!!  Please, Jimmy, oh please?????

I will be down there begging with you, Carolyn.  It was an incredible experience.  I would think Jimmy would add that number to all of his shows!  WOW!!!

I don't think any of us will have to go that far. Something tells me Jimmy hears us and will to try to make it happen---as he has in the past. ;) :)

It was absolutely the most beautiful version I have heard.  My sister is trying to sign up for an account to put her two cents worth in. 

I was more than happy to get the words for Jimmy.  I would do it again and again.

I will join you guys, since my knees are younger. Unfortunately I'm not good with begging, so I'll leave that up to Pam and Carolyn.

I remember the goose bumps and the tears.  I don't think there was a dry eye in the place.

I can't do the knee thing, either;  but I can beg.  Puleeze, Jimmy, do Danny Boy at the festival.

Jimmy sang Danny Boy on the cruise in January.  He did the best version I have heard.  I now have waterproof mascara an eyeliner.   Just saying.

I have heard the Three Irish Tenors sing the song and Jimmy does it so much better.
