This song is about a love, once lost ... a long time ago! It is about the vulnerability of bringing a new partner home to meet your family, and how a breakup would hurt not just you, but also your family members who have fallen in love with that person. At  the same time it highlights the depth of family connections, noting that while the singer might be emotionally "fine" after a breakup, his family members could be devastated, because "...there are more hearts, than mine!"

With family origins from Ireland, Poland and Spain I had the pleasure to live in México, USA and various European countries for a while, too! Not surprising, that I feel like a world citizen with a lot of enthusiasm for all kind of folk music of this wounderful world. I think, folk music is like a business card of each particular culture and it is amazing, how all its differences in styles and languages always find together, bundle and focus in one universal spot: Joy of music! That’s, why I love to tell stories and to share experiences by music and with joy! There is a personal story behind each of the originals! Please enjoy!
