I dont really listen to much "oldies" besides the odd bit of Elvis and Johnny Cash but Christy Moore is by far my favourite. His better stuff is post 1980 imo but these two (although not written by him) we pre 80s tracks:

Written by Jack Warshaw in mid 70s


Written by Bobby Sands in Long Kesh


Old Scottish folk song


Short but Sweet


Discovered this randomly while looking for a song with a russian theme for a video project I was working on

Across the Universe....from Old Trafford.
Cheers mate. :cool:



Nah, I haven't seen that one before. It looks like the lyrics of the song are beautifully synced with a relevant movie (Deja View). Do you happen to like the film by any chance?
Deja View was an attempt to do videos for some very famous songs. the film was actually made specifically for the song...not the other way round.

here is Beach Boys Dont Worry Baby
