She Moved Through The Fair...

The increasingly barking Sinead O'Connor (isn't she a Pope now...?) singing (and how...!) She Moved Through The Fair...

Wow...!

That's better!

Seems to be 'He Moved Through the Fair'. Is this gender-reversal valid in a folk-song context? Surely st. anley has an opinion on this? (Also probably Beresford Green, but not an intelligible one).

For once I understand Ron's challenging observation here.

In this performance I am willing to forgive gender-pronoun substitution. After all, Sinead has beautiful dentures.
I use this strategy myself (no, not the dentures,) on occasions: I hope rarely.

The essence of the song is unchanged. Padraic (he assures me from his grave) concurs with my opinion that this is NOT that ungodly phenomenon called 'Parody'.
