Excellent rendition of a popular Irish lullaby from "Murder, Misery, and then Goodnight": Hersh's solo collection of traditional folk songs and lullabies she had heard as a toddler when Hersh and her family lived in Appalachia at the time. Note: these are pretty dark, maudin tunes that would make "Rockaby Baby" seem tame by comparison...
ps--Colin Meloy of the Decemberists also did a killer cover of "Never Will Marry" with his old band from Montana, Tarkio. Highly recommended!
