Thanks again kind Sir.
Can someone help me with this?
There was a song in the top 10 mid 80's, probably 86 or 87. All I can tell you is it had a kind of Irish folk sound to it and the chorus had "In America, In Amric oroly oroly oroly oroly" and the lyric "All this peace and understanding".
Does anyone know what I'm going on about and if you know the song can you post it please. Iv been trying to track it down for ages.

The recent location of one of the ships from the ill-fated Franklin Expedition of the Northwest Passage is a fitting tribute to Atlantic Canadian singer Stan Rogers, who tragically perished in 1983 after a fire on an Air Canada flight, possibly ignited by someone smoking in the washroom.
"Rogers died alongside 22 other passengers (23 fatalities in all) most likely of smoke inhalation on June 2, 1983, while travelling on Air Canada Flight 797 (a McDonnell Douglas DC-9) after performing at the Kerrville Folk Festival. The airliner was flying from Dallas, Texas to Toronto and Montreal when an in-flight fire forced it to make an emergency landing at the Greater Cincinnati Airport in northern Kentucky.
Smoke was filling the cabin from an unknown source, and once on the ground, the plane's doors were opened to allow passengers to escape. Approximately 60 to 90 seconds into the evacuation of the plane, the oxygen rushing in from outside caused a flash fire. Rogers was one of the passengers still on the plane at the time of the fire.
His ashes were scattered in the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Nova Scotia."
