H08 - DAMIEN DEMPSEY



Damien Dempsey with Sinead O'Connor - "Fairytale of New York" When I first heard about Damien's Pogues cover, I figured he and Sinead would be trading lines like Shane MacGowan and Kirsty MacColl did in the original. That's not the case here. Though it's referred to as a duet, it's really a solo song from Damien, with Sinead doing a bit of backing vocals.


It's not bad. Just not what I was expecting. Still, nothing beats The Pogues original.(buy)
