A song that would work for leavers and remainers. Not sure if that was your intention. Could also be played with a different rythm (slow march). Well written, Gavin. No mistaking the touch of Irish in the melody.
Vic Thanks Vic. I'm not sure how it would work for remainers, but I'm happy enough if it does. It's not a negative take on leaving, but a positive view of Europe. I thought of the melody as more Scottish than Irish, but they're very closely related, of course. When I think of a slow march, I think of a slowed down 3/4 time. The kind of thing you would see at military funerals or Remembrance Sunday when soldiers step on the first beat and pause on beats 2 and 3. Is that what you mean? Since it's already in 3/4, it would just be a case of slowing it down. Thanks for listening. I always appreciate your comments and find them helpful.
