Manhattan pub bans singing 'Danny Boy'
I emailed this link to the music director at our parish. You know, in case he needs one more reason to discourage 'Danny Boy' at funerals. (I think there is a miraculous double-effect at work here. If it is pub song, you shouldn't sing it in a liturgical setting. And what of a song so egregious as to be banned from pubs? Well, you certainly wouldn't bring that into church.)
