I never liked the Sawdoctors. Always thought yer man was always just shouting around the place. I could imagine them bashing around country halls and so on. Came across Tolo Makay recently with her version of the NI7. I could actually hear the words she was singing as her diction was spot on. It was a much better version…

Came across Tolo Makay recently with her version of the NI7. I could actually hear the words she was singing as her diction was spot on. It was a much better version than the boys themselves. More sensitive and I think more meangingful.

What ye think?

The song is meant to be interpreted and sung in it's own way as intended by it's writers, The Sawdoctors.
It was not really written and recorded in 1990 to be covered 30 years later.
