Cemetery Sunday Cemetery Sunday
Cemetery Sunday is held in some towns in Ireland. Many expats return for Mass and a rosary at the cemetery. I combined this vivid image from my youth with a more recent memory of unwillingly leaving Dublin and returning to the States.
I Must Go I Must Go
"I Must Go" describes a man who must of necessity leave what he loves to seek his fortune. A personal song, yet with a hint of the historical emmigrant experience. Mastered. Yes!

Hello again!
I've got a new song up called "Catch Me Wings". I love it and I hope that you will too. Please stop by when you get a chance and give it a listen. It's my first song that's 100% done.
Thanks so very much for your time. God bless you and yours always.
Love and Peace,
Beth
Sean, I love you music. It's exceptional. Earl
Dear Sean,
It's been a long time coming, but I finally have a new song up. It's a song I wrote to my Daddy four days before he passed away. It was God's way of telling me that it was his time.
This is not the final version of the song. We recorded it in a hurry as I thought I was leaving town. The next version we'll take our time. It needs to be a bit slower, with less cymbals, and better vocals. The timing on it is a bit off as well.
Anyway...it will give you an idea of what's to come. I hope that you'll give it a listen. Oh...it's called, "Daddy Can You Hear Me Up In Heaven?" Thanks for checking it out. Have a wonderful day and God bless you always!
Love and Peace,
Beth
