Songs In The Key Of Life With Nadine O'regan

"The only time I ever feel totally alive is when I'm on stage. I love singing. Singing is my saviour."   When Christy Dignam of chart-topping Irish band Aslan came in to the show on Sunday, he was extremely candid about the troubles he's had in life: he talked about his cancer diagnosis, his battles with drug addiction, and the hard process of facing up to his own mortality. Through it all, he said, singing has been his release: his way to feel happiness.    It was no surprise, then, to discover that Christy had curated such a brilliant playlist for the show on Sunday, with classics from Tom Waits, Phil Lynott and Jeff Buckley all on the playlist. "Jeff Buckley is a master," he said. "Any young singer that wants to get into singing should listen to Jeff Buckley."   Aslan are celebrating 30 years since the release of their debut album Feel No Shame -- and they play two gigs in Dublin's Iveagh Gardens in July.
