‘And you still can hear me singin'
To the people who don't listen
To the things that I am sayin'
Prayin' someone's gonna hear
And I guess I'll die explainin' how
The things that they complain about
Are things they could be changin'
Hopin' someone's gonna care.’

I’m his Mammy. To everyone there who cheered him, stood for him and came up to him afterwards, you’ll never know how happy you made him. He’s been singing Christy since before he could talk, and Christy has replied to every letter Míceál wrote him. Christy is a living legend.
