How the Blades failed to break internationally is one of the great injustices of popular music. Which is why I like football more than music.... it rewards talent more than music does and is less susceptible to fashionable trends.Originally Posted by Partizan
Ghost of a Chance by The Blades.
To me the best Irish single of all time, but then again some crappy sentimental Bono/U2, Boyzone or Westlife trip will get it.
Whats the bet Daniel O'Donnell or Joe Dolan will be in the running.
P.S. I forgot, Teenage Kicks - The Undertones
RIP John Peel.
The only reason I did not suggest the Blades myself is I am torn between about three of their songs.. Downmarket and The Last Man In Europe are a bit special too.
Teenage Kicks I love because even I can play the bar chords to that one on a guitar
Which reminds me....
My Perfect Cousin by The Undertones... best Irish song to namecheck Subbuteo ever...
