This is The Corrs' version of Spancil Hill. The song is originally by Michael Considine. It is based on the writer's real experience of leaving his home in Spancil Hill, County Clare, Ireland for a new life in California, USA. He wrote the song aged 23 for his sweetheart back home in Ireland, as he knew he was ill and didn't have long to live. He sings of his longing for his home in Spancil Hill, his friends and the love he left there.
Enjoy :)
