Question Slightly strange musical query
Having just seen a random episode of Billy Connollys tour of England, i was reminded of how much i loved the music for the closing credits. Anyone know who sings it or even the name of the song?

Thank youuuu

No it's not, I made that mistake on my previous post but it's a completely different song which happens to appear on the soundtrack.

It looks like a reworking of "England" by Ralph McTell changed to "Ireland". Probably just for the Billy Connolly show.

Helen,
not like you to give up easily
Look through the end credits find out who the production company is and contact them, someone will know and I'm sure they will find out for you if they don't know, failing that BC must have a fan club, contact them - dig harder girl
