Song for the Economic Crisis

Christy Moore is regarded as Ireland’s leading folk singer. His recording of the song “Ordinary Man” resonated in the Ireland of the mid-1980s, with its deep economic depression. As I listened to it again for the first time in many years, I realized that it resonates anew today, especially as the “ordinary man” pays the price for Wall Street greed. Anyway, have a listen to the song. For those not familiar with Christy– it’s worth the effort!
