I was listening to the radio this morning, radio tuned to Lyric as usual. Not sure which programme it was, either Marty in the Morning or Niall Carroll. They played an uncharacteristic song by Brendan Behan, absolutely gorgeous. Now I can't find the damn thing… It had a cellist, I think, playing behind the singer #BrendanBehan
