Yeah, and because we didn't have money to hire a venue, we decided to have a party in our flat.
Yeah, that's our place.
That's where we live.
And also, the guy I was telling you about earlier on, the first person I met, the Dylanologist in Grafton Street, that's Pete, and he's the guy who sings.
Oh.
And then the woman who sings is my mother.
Yeah, that's my mother, Catherine.
And again, how we did it was instead of trying to hire a room and put lots of extras in it, we just threw a party and invited all our friends over and filmed it.
The older Marianne Faithfull.
Interestingly, Marianne Faithfull used to live in that flat also, which you might have somehow picked up on.
We're very lucky in that we live... One of the other people that I met when I was younger was Marina Guinness, who's part of the Guinness family in Ireland.
Ireland doesn't have royalty, but if we did have royalty, it would have to be the Guinness family because they're such a strong and powerful family in Ireland in a very nice way.
And of course, we all admire them because we drink their product constantly.
It's an amazing thing.
So I'm really glad you pointed out the guy and the woman because the guy is the guy I was talking about who took me on board and I spent a lot of time with him when I was younger and, of course, my mother.
There's one request I'll ask of you When your liberty came Remember Mitchell far away
I come big bound in shame.
That's a scene from Once, which stars my guests Glenn Hansard and Marketa Erglova.
Did your mother sing a lot when you were growing up?
Yeah.
