How cool, Gwen - I'll be the squeaky voiced one at the back.
This is so great.
Outstanding! One question.... what is the phonetic pronunciation of "bean sidhe?"
WOW! This is really ghoulish fun trip.

I would so love someone else with a good singing voice and the ability to record a mp3 file to sing this and POST IT. You'll be pleased to know that though I'll tell a story on audioblog, I will spare you my bad singing voice! :)
You know I think this is one of your coolest pieces Gwen. Such fun!
