Conor Mc Ginty - A Mothers Song****NEW SONG**** #ShareTheLoveAndLetHerKnow Conor Mc Ginty - A Mothers Song ❤️ Hi guys, this is probably the most personal recording I've ever done & I am so glad I came across this special song a few weeks ago. As you all probably know my Granny Madeline passed away 4 months ago. My mum is an only child and I wanted to do something to help her in the hard time she's going through & to do something to show her how loved she is. The song tells the story of me growing from a young boy with my mum, following my dreams as a singer, finding my fiance Aisling & moving forward in my life with everything that is happening. A massive thanks to Tony Carter in the United States, who is the writer of this song, for giving me the permission to record it & I hope I have done it justice. A huge thanks to Eamon Karran for his brilliant arrangement and production and to my good friend Jordan O'Keefe for his help on the lyric video A proper video will be coming in the next few weeks and I hope you can share this song near & far and let everyone hear it
