Nobody should attempt to sing Fairytale of New York. The original can't be bettered. Timeless classic.
Seriously overrated tune.
Overrated or played out?
Both.

I am a big Beatles fan. That said some of the McCartney stuff and the George stuff that was influenced by Ravi Shankar is fast forward material.

Ob-la-di, ob-la da is pure rubbish and I remember reading about its recording when after the 6 millionth take Lennon was ready to explode with frustration.

That said it didn't deserve this treatment. Sit back and relax - grab a brick and be ready to hurl it at the screen.

QuoteI am now more certain than ever that Daniel is in fact a fictional character created by Steve Coogan

He doesn't lok unlike Alan Partridge - he might be his (relatively) embarrassing older brother.

I see him as a cross between Partridge and Bruno (Only Bruno isn't as camp).

The Irish anthem has just been slaughtered in Sweden.

The soldiers song gets slaughtered by every county scor finalist around the country every league match every weekend.

In the Gaa it should only be played at Provincial and All-Ireland Finals (maybe County Finals at a stretch). Then it might make the hair stand on your neck like it should.

Good call. But Maybe the writer should be slaughtered this time instead.
