I've been drying to remember the name and artist for that song that's always played at bars and pubs at the end of the night, with the violins after the chorus. I know the tune and could hum it but the lyrics I don't know that well.

I've been dah dah dah da,
dad da da da da da.

Great Big Sea does a version of Home For a Rest -- they are definately an East-Coast band.

Wicked, Thx for sharing that. Now I'll have to add both songs to the playlist since its technically a different band, I can get away with playing the same song 2 times in the same nite at a club. -
