	Gaelic covers a lot of languages.  There's Irish, Scots, Welsh, 
Breton, and Manx (dead), usually referred to as Irish Gaelic, Scots Gaelic, 
etc.  Gaidhlig is, I believe, Scots Gaelic, although I am probably wrong.

	I came across the video for 'Shephard Moons' in the local
music store.  I don't remember what was featured on it, but there were
about 3 or 4 songs featured.  I'm not sure this is any help, but I'll
put my 2 cents in anywhere.

        Well, I can't speak for anyone else, of course, although I can
quote if I know of one that seems to pertain. I've been told, though, that
SF fans have traditionally felt oppressed by the mundane world. ("You read
that crazy Buck Rogers stuff?" "Hey, Jophan! Where do you park your flying
saucer? Har har har!" "You're rotting your brain reading that trash! You
are to stop reading that Amazing thing THIS INSTANT! And this weekend we
are going to gather up your entire collection and YOU are going to burn it!
Do you hear?" You get the idea.) If fannish filks on fan/mundane relations
are still shrill, it's probably a hangover from the bad old days, before SF
became fashionable. IMHO, that is.

Next time you bring "Hope Eyrie", try either the version on 
the _Challenger Memorial_ tape, or Kathy Mar's rendition on
_Song Of the Stars_ (DAG tape from ConChord 3); or, if you have it, the one 
from Leslie's out-of-print tape _Skybound_. The version on _Minus Ten 
And Counting_ is pretty, but has no life.

It's been established in court that "to the tune of" is acceptable, in a case

which is copyright to someone else who didn't want them posted.  This has
already happened once; I HOPE the copyright holder was not injured by it, but

THE BALLAD OF OBI-WAN KENOBI

tune: "The MTA" by the Kingston Trio (a.k.a. "The Ship that Never Returned")


A long time ago there was a man named Obi
In a galaxy far away.
When a trash can and a kid came knocking at his door
He knew trouble was headed his way.

Refrain:
   But did he ever get zapped? No, he never got zapped.
   He knows all the tricks those storm troopers use.
   They did trail him all around but they never shot him down,
   Kenobi is never gonna lose.

They loaded up their droids and they drove into town,
Right into a storm-trooper trap.
He faked 'em with the Force, and he fooled 'em, of course,
You can't catch Obi with sh*t like that!

He went in a bar, he met a starship pilot
And a thing with a cold, wet nose.
Those storm troopers were a bunch of party poopers
But Obi came out smelling like a rose.

Refrain

One more story 'bout Obi-Wan Kenobi
On a tragic and fateful day.
Old Darth Vader got left holding the bag,
But Obi's gone clean a-way.

Refrain

Spoken:  Old Jedi never die, they just hang around in a blue haze.
