Finbar Furey

When the younger brothers Paul and George joined the band, several years later, The Fureys enjoyed hits including When You Were Sweet Sixteen, Tara Hill, Green Fields of France, Red Rose Café, and The Lonesome Boatman.

[citation needed] In 1997, after nearly thirty years as The Fureys' front man, Finbar decided the time was right to follow his own path as a singer songwriter.

He decided to step aside and pursue his solo career, to present his definitive one-man show, and to explore new pastures as a singer, producer, and writer.

The album, which featured guest performances from Mary Black and Shayne Ward, was released in North America in 2012 on the Valley Entertainment record label.

The song was performed again with the RTÉ Concert Orchestra in the final and came first place in the public vote, earning the title "The Ultimate Hit".
