Failte Ireland Tourism 2011

[SrtaRay]

Where's the lyrics?

[thestigsirishcousin]

im proud to be irish

[almostShredd]

great video - great song!!! I love this damn good song...it makes me happy ;)

best wishes from austria

[TrashcanBoogie]

world-class surfing in ireland! you should be seriously promoting that! makes sense, tho'. wildest west coast in the world.

[Jimmyleecork]

Great Promo video, captures a lot, but nowhere did it mention value for money, and in these difficult economic times, not just in Ireland, prospective Tourists will want to know they're not coming here to be ripped off, we need to capture repeat business to sustain in the long term and prices will be a big factor in that. The product is amazing, just get the cost right...

[keravankauhu]

..nice vid! but what about the irish chicks? are they any hot?

[dale9bx]

Anyone know the name of the song please?

[Brona1990]

Fantastic video, glad to see what Ireland has to offer!

[seanyd81]

Track is called Departure from a Dublin band called DC Pakt who are now defunct sadly but whose founder member is now in Cheap Freaks, a quality new band, who are supporting Beady Eye on their Irish gigs.

[IIXxAeroWxXII]

How come Oxegen... the best music festival in Europe, if not the world, isnt in this ad?

[hanifbul]

[Geeefan1]

[Kars7119]

Excellent video! Why would we ever want to leave the country when it's all on our doorstep!

[HerComesSanta]

Great Video

[thirdmantackle]

We need more emphasis on activities: walking holidays, cycling holidays, sporting events - big GAA games, Triathalon etc, tourism outside of Dublin.

[SecondWind2]

Great video and song! Count me as one of the 5.5 million :)

[CreevyCottages]

Great Video! Many great reasons to visit Ireland & Creevy Cottages in Donegal!

[meself1000]

[bdayh81]

[poetotoe]

Going Home

Had we not come home and had we not been born

How then to tell you of a place we call home, Ireland

For its land is a treasure you can hold all day and night.

Never so grand a land before your feet or eyes to feast on

Where your dreams come alive and friends are everywhere

As songs are sung your tears are laid to rest in Irish lullabies.

[poetotoe]

Ireland's shores are rocky and bare, lay true to its heritage Never destroyed, never forgotten by her lads and lassies Be you far or near its shore East, West, South or North. Remember your soul never rests till you come home For your blood flows to Ireland as a river to the sea High in the clouds come fly back home to Ireland. Here at home Ireland surely to renew your soul For your journeys through life's trails and joys Ireland is your love of life truly and it is real. poet.us

[Abhainnri2010]

Another great reason to holiday in Ireland and experience an Irish holiday.

[CampusLifeServices]

Pity that it does not mention Limerick as the European City of Sport 2011

[trinityfc]

Song is called 'Departure' by a now defunct Dublin band called DC Pakt.

[meself1000]

@99Sodbusters

if you download realplayer there's a plugin that comes with it that enables you to download the video. An icon appears in the top right corner of the video. It currently doesn't work with the Google Chrome browser, but it works fine with the Mozilla Firefox browser, you can choose in the preferences of realplayer what format to download to, default is flash file.

[VacationKillarney]

Well done to ITIC & Failte Ireland, we all need to get off our a** and get together and promote Tourism in Ireland, Its about Business, Jobs & Community. Ireland was always been renowned for great hospitality and a True Irish Welcome. Forget the Juknets, Expences, and Freebies, spend our Taxpayers money on Promoting Tourism in Ireland.

I hope this magnificent Video is the start of a new beginning for our Tourism Bodies involve the people and they will help

[TheDebrun]

Well done to the ITIC and Board Failte on this video, it makes me proud to be Irish and appreciate our beautiful country especially in the depths of depression!

[99Sodbusters]

Hi there - can this video be downloaded from some site? I'm sure alot of businesses would like to support this initiative by embedding in Presentations, or playing in receptions, etc (where not connected to the Web). Do you know where the original video can be sourced from?

Excellent work!

[macincork]

@99Sodbusters if you have real player installed (latest) you can install a download this video plugin that will allow you to download the vid

[AuxaneD]

You guys know how to "brand" your country, well done.

We have more to cell but can't even do that.

Kapferer come to the rescue pour la patrie!
