Has Two Women, But Loves the Third: Dervish and "Máire Mhór"

Today's random song is called Máire Mhór and is by Dervish, a traditional Irish band from County Sligo described by the BBC as an icon of Irish music. Formed in 1989, they represented Ireland in 2007 in the finals of the Eurovision Song Contest. They have also been known to stand for their principles. In 2012 they canceled tour dates in Israel and announced a cultural boycott of the country, which in turn led to a negative backlash at home. Máire Mhór is from their 1995 album Playing with Fire. It was also recorded on their 1997 album Live in Palma and on the 2010 album Live at Johnny Fox's.
