Me Oh My is the debut studio album by Welsh musician Cate Le Bon, released on 12 October 2009 by Irony Bored. The album was originally going to be named Pet Deaths, referring to Le Bon's experiences with the subject. One song written in Welsh, 'O am Gariad', was originally going to be on the album, but was discarded because it interrupted the flow, [5] though Welsh can still be heard on some tracks. [6]
