As I have written in the past I like Irish Folk songs. So the other day while at Crosswords I saw & picked up the CD "Ireland - The greatest songs ever". One song among the 12 songs in the album impressed me a lot and in the last few days I have listened to it several times.

The song was Four Pence a Day by Tola Custy & Cyril O'Donoghue. Surprisingly my 4 year old son has taken a liking to it and he demanded I play it twice today!.The song talks about the hard working conditions for Four Pence a day as salary. 

You can sample the songs from this Amazon page. If you like Irish Folk Songs this is a good album but the price at Rs.395 is damn expensive. You may be able to buy the few good songs online for much cheaper price.
