Song by Donegal singer Daniel O'Donnell. The Kingdom of Bréifne (also Breffny, Brefnie, Brenny) was the traditional territory for an early Irish tribal group known as the Uí Briúin Bréifne. The Bréifne territory included the modern Irish counties of Leitrim and Cavan, along with parts of County Sligo (an area roughly equivalent to the modern Roman Catholic Diocese of Kilmore).

=Lyrics=

Blue Hills of Breffni shining in the sun
Scenes that I knew so long ago
When in my boyhood barefoot I would run
Through the fields and the woodlands I would go

Down by the river there's a old swinging pole
Where we laughed and played the summer days away
And home in the evening with the sun sinking low
In the Blue Hills of Breffni far away

Chorus
Far away, far away
Blue Hills of Breffni far away
Old memories burning, soon I'll be returning
To my Blue Hills of Breffni far away

Old thatched cottage standing by the stream
Winter nights of story and of song
And the sound of the fiddle that my father used to play
And the music echoed as we sang along

Neighbours would gather round the old turf fire
They talked about the heroes of the day
Life was all for living in the days when we were young
In Blue Hills of Breffni far away

chorus

I had a sweetheart she was young and fair
She cared not that I had no wealth or fame
We'd go walking hand in hand along the leafy lane
To the old oak tree where once I carved her name

There we made our promises that we would never part
And our love would last for ever and a day
But I went aroving and left my love behind
In Blue Hills of Breffni far away

chorus

Classic performance from The 'Whitehall Theatre' in Dundee Scotland, from 1990

Saturday Night At The Movies is a 1964 song by the fabulous Drifters. In my opinion, The Drifters were the all time greatest recording group of the 50's and 60's.

In 1988 the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inducted
the seven significant contributors to The Drifters' legacy - originals
Clyde McPhatter, Bill Pinkney, and Gerhardt Thrasher, along with
subsequent members Ben E. King, Charlie Thomas, Rudy Lewis,
and Johnny Moore. Only King and Thomas are alive today.

Great sound of the Drifters with the great Johnny Moore.

This is simply my all all time favourite Drifters song. Never a hit but still brilliant, probably one of my top ten songs of all time. Not on YouTube . . . until now.

If you're from Northern Ireland, listened to Big T on Downtown Radio and were around in 1976 when the station started broadcasting, then you will love and recognise the song, especially as Trevor regularly plays it on the station's birthday - March 16th.

It's from their 1976 album 'Every Night's A Saturday Night With You'.

Full Track Listing :

"You're More Than a Number in My Little Red Book", "I'll Get to Know Your Name Along the Way", "Do You Have to Go Now", "Like a Movie I've Seen Before", "Twice a Week", "Another Kind of Sorrow", "Sweet Little Rock'n'Roller", "Midnight Cowboy", "Another Lonely Weekend", "I'll Know When True Love Passes By", "Summer in the City", "Every Nite's a Saturday Night with You"

The Drifters sing "Come Over To My Place" with a live performance.

Ray Pollard - The Drifter

Drifters studio performance recorded in 1990 for 'Daytime Live' at some ridiculous early time in the morning and a lesson learned,
DON'T flippantly ask the cameraman for 'a close up for me mum' when you haven't slept the night before.
