This election descended into pure mud slinging quite a while ago. Imagine your job was trawling through Mitchell/Davis/Dana/MMG career to find something newsworthy. I expect "MMG in littering scandal" or "Dana caught without tv licence in 1996" any minute now.

Gallagher a big mover.

Big mover alright,close between top three but looks like Norris and Gay are sinking fast.

Still the leading candidate on first preferences, Michael D., is also the most likely to attract transfers. His to lose, I would say.

Dana in Royalties scandal. 

I think it because RTE can't play Dana songs for fear of showing bias.  So no royalties for Dana.

All Kinds of Everything
Totus Tous
Somethin's Cooking in the Kitchen

That's her sunk, now - apparently she was going to re-release this one in a late bid for the Aras...

Jesus Muppet - are you under 9?

I can almost remember Totus Tous (or however it's spelt) word for word. It's Latin for Totally Yours - Pope JP II's motto - and she released this crime on humanity for his visit in 1979.

There was another 'Pope song' at the some time. Some auld baritone gobshite singing "Wellllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllcome John Paullllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll"

Dreadful dreadful stuff.

I got canvassed at the door by FGs earlier. Hadn't the heart to tell them Greybo was not getting a high preference from me. I had sunk my student savings into the 'Dublin Olympics 1988' campaign expecting a good dividend. Lost everything.

Never forgive him for that  >:(

I am truly shocked. I thought your 70s collection would have been based on Horselips and Rory Gallagher and maybe with a gun to your head Gilbert O'Baritone.

But Dana!????

As I think I'm older than both muppet and Shamrock Shore I seem to recall a "Cold Cold Christmas" around 1976 sometime??
