The first half of this medley, "The Women of Ireland" by Laurie Lewis is exactly what you're looking for. Unfortunately, it's followed by an uptempo tune.
Buffista Music 4: Needs More Cowbell!
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.
Here, The Chieftains do a lovely version of "Women of Ireland".
You basically want to search for "Irish Fiddle Lament" and you'll get lovely pieces like this slow air.
It is like a COUNTRY MUSIC SONG TRAGEDY in Natter right now and it is all Jesse's fault. Becareful fokks, she is coming after your men, beer and trailers next - THAT IS HOW IT STARTS!

Ooh--now I remember!
Poor Ernie Brooks, the forgotten Modern Lover.

He went on to play with the Real Kids!
He's not on any of the Real Kids records I have. Are you confusing him with John Felice, who fronted the Real Kids (and was a Modern Lover for a time), or was Ernie only briefly a member?
