    Talking The Fields of Athenry

    There is a new version of The Fields by 5th and Pontiac. They have sent it to Celtic and hope to release it for the Celtic Charity Fund. You can find it at:-

    I kinda liked the verses, but the chorus really lacked punch& sounded a bit anemic.

    its always gonna be measured againt the original/traditional versions of it... though credit for trying a new spin on it.

    quite liked the classical version and wasn't too sure of a punk version before listening to it but mildy surprised by it (as mentioned earlier in this thread)
