  • Hang on, I can get this...

  • "Running around with a man on yer back like a train in the night, like a train in the, hang on I can get this...niiiiiiiight!!" Cue well placed shotgun blast that totally obliterates Ted's guitar!! Comedy heaven!!

  • "We have to lose that sax solo!"

  • @dempsi1997 yeah. "-panting- Dougal... WE HAVE TO LOSE THAT SAX SOLO!"

  • any chance of uploading the whole doco? am outside the uk and the poxy bbc is blocking access to their net TV

  • this is a blatent rip off from ving hoogan and the hooganotes!

  • He just wanted to commemorate all those talented people by keeping their music alive :)

  • @eimead

    Ahahahaha! :D

  • @eimead Yeah, I am sick off seeing the Hooganotes get ripped off constantly by jokers like this!

  • @sherwoodfella Forgive ignorance here got to ask who are the Hooganotes? Typed both that and ving hoogan into Google, Yahoo, You Tube and Wiki and nothing comes up, would be interested to hear some of it so I can compare it to this the frontman of Divine Comedy...

  • @gteage Do you watch Fr Ted? in the Eurovision episode the Hooganotes (sic) were the band credited with writing the song that ultimately became My Lovely Horse. It was a b side and supposedly was a very unknown song so Ted thought he might 'borrow' the tune and change the lyrics...but of course it backfired spectacularly!

  • @25pappy Thanks for the info, it's been a long time since I've seen any of Father Ted, will have to re-watch it :)

  • @25pappy Well everyone involved in the song was killed in a plane crash - the band, all the record company staff and everyone involved with the copyright.

  • @gteage lololololololololololololololo­l

  • @gteage - Yeah, they aint a reall band. My fault, I assumed all on here would be Father Ted viewers ; )

  • @sherwoodfella To be fair Hannon has written plenty of his own original stuff, he just did a humourous cover of a song (by a band who are let's face it not very well known...)

  • @howiej103 I don't think it is a cover version if it is a song you wrote...

  • @howiej103 - I was only kidding mate, I am a father Ted fan and thats tghe band Dougal says did this song. Hannon is one of my all time hero's!

  • @eimead thanks for making my day, that's the funniest comment I've read on youtube for ages...

  • @saintlee2008 cheers, credit to graham and arthur obviously.

  • @eimead It was origanaly written for ""Father Ted".................soooooooo­oooooooo
