The Irish traditional song She Moved Through The Fair is well loved and well recorded by many.

To some it is a ghost story that tells of unfulfilled longings and of hopes and aspirations cut short.

Sinead O' Connor and other fans talk about the haunting beauty of this ancient song and of why its imagery is carved into their souls.

Featuring:

Sinead O'Connor Catriona Crowe Bernie Warren David Johnston.

Producer: Maggie Ayre

First broadcast on BBC Radio 4 in February 2013.
