Been drunk as a skunk since I've been home
From bar to bar like a ghost I roamed
I can't forget those things I saw
Been down with the devil in the Dalling [?]
One place I don't want to go


correct me if im wrong but isnt the [?] = road

I believe it is. The lyrics above may have been copied from the book "Poguetry", which omits the word Road for some reason.
Dalling Road is also mentioned in Dark Streets of London:
"I liked to walk in the summer breeze,
Down Dalling Road by the dead old trees"

Anyway, my nomination for most underrated album is Pogue Mahone, and song is either The Curse Of Love or U.S.A..

My all-time favorite piece of music is the Battle March Medley simply because it gets me everytime. Having been mentioned but once in this nine page thread I can therefore count it as "underrated". Coming next on my list today is Young Ned of the Hill.

The most underrated song has got to be Lullaby of London, a fantastic song. Also, i cant understand anyone not liking Old Main Drag. Who else but Shane could write a song about drunken, addict rent boys and make it one of the most beutiful songs ever

House of the Gods on hells ditch has to be the most underrated, or The Wake of the Medusa. The thing about house of the gods is its one of those songs that you think sounds really wierd when you listen to it first. The difference is when you find out the lyrics it just gets wierder
