Mad about the pogues wrote:Got to be 'And the band played Walzing Matilda'

Why??

Well the pogues did not write the original lyrics - think it was written by a first world war poet - but

Sian make the poem alive with such emotion. As with a number of pogues songs (such as dirty old town and navigator) he has made it his own. This song is the most under-rated that they have done and what a fitting song to end rum Rum Sodomy & The Lash on..

I just wonder ehat kind of reception would he get if they ever did it live??

AFAIK they did..... even in the early days... wasn't there to witness how it was taken but...

i'm gonna go with gentalman soilder and boat train

yes, Gentleman Soldier. and Sit Down By the Fire. These were my first favorite Pogues songs.

I'd say Rain street

I'd say that the most under rated song is 'Haunting', in my opinion the best songs Terry Woods has written. Most under rated album is 'Red Roses For Me'.

Red Roses

Sea Shanty

mine are Waiting For Herb, because its a great album in general, and my favourite underrated song is WAXIES DARGLE! classic tune!

I've always been extremely fond of "South Australia."

Red Roses + Greenland Whale Fisheries

Yes, great song. Actually it was written by Eric Bogle.

The following from: http://www.windbourne.com/ebogle/eric.html

<Eric is an internationally known folksinger, originally from Peebles, Scotland. Born in 1944, he spent his first twenty five years in Scotland. In 1969 he emigrated to Australia first settling in Canberra. He eventually trained, and worked as an accountant, then in 1980 became a full time folk singer. Eric currently lives near Adelaide, South Australia. A gentle man, he's also one of the most straight forward and nicest people you could ever hope to meet.

He is best known for is the award winning "And The Band Played Waltzing Matilda." It was first recorded by June Tabor, and has been recorded by many other artists since. Other songs he's written include "No Man's Land (The Green Fields Of France)," "Leaving Nancy," "Nobody's Moggy Now," and "Little Gomez." His most recent release is Endangered Species on the ACMEC label. His new album, The Colour of Dreams has been released. >

He's still currently touring in Australia.
