    Some say this is by William Houston Collisson, others by William Percy French (1854-1920)

    Here’s a bouncing foot tapper.
    Was sure I’d heard this before but not a sign on SAW, neither as Eileen Og.
    Really like the crooked melodic phrases in the B part.

    The octave sounds great on this one Simon when you play it without the capo. The range of the instrument comes across really well when played "open".
    My dad used to sing this song when I was a wee boy - we knew it as Eileen Og.

    I second what John said about the OM sound.
    Here is an explanation of the origin of the name.
