Why not try studying for TEG
www.teg.ie? It's a series of carefully graded tests that you can work up to and earn a recognised Certificate. You could study for a GCSE as well.
As for songs try John Beag's "Pócaí folamh' is cloigeann tinn" (empty pockets and a sore head!) or Cóilín Pháraic Shéamais. I like Róisín El Safti's singing and Tim Dennehy's. If you listen to RnaG you'll hear plenty.
Can you get Raidio na Gaeltachta where you live?
Write a few sentences in Irish here and we'll respond.
Best of luck anyway. Go n-éirí go geal leat.
