Yes, you read that right the Muppets came together to sing Danny Boy for St Patrick’s day!
You would be amazed over the years how many people have created a cover of the original song.
The list includes Thin Lizzy, Tom Jones, Celtic Woman, Eric Clapton, Elvis Presley and the list goes on and on!
Either way, Danny Boy remains one of the most popular and well known Irish love songs of all time.
I will shortly have an article about some interesting facts about the song so stay tuned or join my weekly dose of Irish here.
The version today, however, has reached over 10 million views and is a lovely reminder of the scale of St Patrick’s day.
Here are the muppets version of “Danny Boy”. Enjoy and be sure to share!
Just great isn’t it? I never thought I would see the muppets singing Danny Boy for St Patrick’s day.If you are looking for some lovely Irish music for St Patrick’s day. This article has a playlist with over 4 hours of great Irish music.
But my favourite cover has to be Celtic Woman’s cover. Give it a listen here.
Otherwise, enjoy these St Patrick’s day facts and have a great day wherever in the world you are celebrating!
