Tell you what Joe that's because your aunt was I guess offered loads of money to reproduce the track and she said yes! therefore she trousered the money and headed for the nearest tax haven and magners decided to replace your aunt with some model who would not know the front from the back of a squeeze box!
"Magners Cider" LOL! A marketing hype - suddenly Ireland has a 'tradition' of cider-making. In no Irish literature I've ever read is there ever any mention of cider-drinking.
Bah, are you Irish? I am. If you must know Bulmer's is Irish cider. When they marketed it in the UK the called it Magner's because there was already something else called Bulmer's in the UK. I'd have to actually research it to find out the full history, but there ya go.
Armagh is called the orchard of Ireland because of the number of apples grown for the cider industry. Other counties also have large orchards for the same crop but I shall let you discover those areas for yourself!
Sharon Shannon, Mundy & Damien Demspey are going on the Magners Irish Sessions tour across the UK in November.
We're putting on a series of gigs celebrating the Irish tradition of spontaneous music.
NME award-nominated blogger Mike Smith will follow the tour around the UK, uploading real-time blog entries, posting exclusive interviews with each artist, video to our You Tube Channel - check it out!
Sharon Shannon doesn't sing. She has various guest singers on her CDs though she mostly does instrumental pieces. Steve Earle's Galway Girl appears on several of Sharon Shannon's CDs.Some of those vids appear on youtube
I love this advert but magners have stopped showing it in england and have a new one but was in an irish bar today and it came on RTEone and it was bulmers, does it get shown regular over there?
sorry didnt mean to seem like an ass...i accept that he did! i honestly coulda sworn i heard it growing up when i was young...so i thought it was an old irish folk song...thats why it baffled me to think Steve Earle wrote an old folk tune..but turns out it was written more recent than i expected!! i honestly didnt mean to annoy anyone! so im sorry for that!! i dont want to seem like those people who write horrible n stupid comments on videos
mundy does this song..its an Irish song...why would Steve Earle have any interest in a county in Ireland to write a song about it! Sharon Shannon is doing Accordian for it..
cilleinmcevoy, why dont you read Stee Earle's biography and learn a bit more about the man. And just to confirm, yes he DID write this song. As an Irishman I thought your comments were pretty cocky.
listen mate fuck knows why steve earle wrote it because he is a yank but im tellin ya he wrote it years a go and now mundy a band from dublin have started singing it
Love this song now. I hadn't heard this song before my medical formal last week. They loved this song so much that it was played twice, during the night and then as the last song of the night.
Bulmers Pear MMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!

what, so people can't sing songs about girls that don't come from their hometown?

If you're aiming that at me then there's a difference of actually writing the song and doing a copy
dannyboy340 3 years ago
no it wasn't aimed at you... and I was agreeing with you anyway.
I meant that musicians (like Steve Earle) have a right to write songs about girls from other countries.
I think my comment was pretty self-explanatory :/

Yeah, steve earle sings and his version is way better than mundys, i have it uploaded, i had uploaded with my other account but someone deleted it.
By the way this isn't even Steve earle's best song, his best song is copperhead road. If you liked this song you would definetly like it.
