Guess the artist one liner thread...

[Swanjaxs]

Sinne Fianna Fáil,
atá faoi gheall ag Éirinn,
Buíon dár slua
thar toinn do ráinig chughainn,
Faoi mhóid bheith saor
Seantír ár sinsear feasta,
Ní fhágfar faoin tíorán ná faoin tráill.
Anocht a théam sa bhearna baoil,
Le gean ar Ghaeil, chun báis nó saoil,
Le gunna scréach faoi lámhach na bpiléar,
Seo libh canaig amhrán na bhfiann...

Bloody hell that would send some into meltdown.

Once I was a young man
And all I thought I had to do was smile
Well, you are still a young girl
And you've borne everything in style

Great song.

Sun is shinin' in the sky
There ain't a cloud in sight
It's stopped rainin', everybody's in the play
And don't you know
It's a beautiful new day? Hey...

One of my favourite songs and groups, it's Mr Blue Sky by Elo ..

Correct and what tune

 

[Swanjaxs]

So don't misunderstand me
You put the light in my life
Oh, you put the spark to the flame
I got your heart in my sight...

I had tickets for ELO and then Covid happened and the gig was cancelled which was a bummer.

It's definitely Irish Gaelic as one of my favourite bands sings some songs in Irish Gaelic and as Fianna Fail in the first line is an Irish political party (Republican?), I'd have a guess and say it's the Fianna Fail party's anthem?

Close, it's the National anthem of Èire, The Soldier's Song, Amhrán na bhFiann

Written by Mike D’arbo of Mannfred Mann. Best version in my opinion is Rod Stewart’s in the late 1960s.

Absolutely agree
And he sung it down the Liberty a few years back.

Massive Celtic fan btw
