Kodaline featuring Gabrielle Aplin – Everyone Changes
Fancy a duet?
Irish chart toppers Kodaline team up with honey-tongued English singer/songwriter Gabrielle Aplin for their new single taken from the deluxe version of their album One Day At A Time.
Kodaline says:
“When we wrote ‘Everyone changes’ for our new album we always felt the song would work better as a duet, so with the help of Gabrielle Aplin and her beautiful vocals, here’s the result. We hope you guys like it.”
Kodaline play Malahide Castle on June 27.
Nick says: ‘Line dancing.
It’s Friday!
OK, we could all do with a lift this weekend. What better way to take our minds off the lockdown than with another music competition?
This week I want to know what song [1960-2020] by an Irish artist is the most underrated?
Reply below and you could be in with a chance to win a golden-leafed €25 Golden Discs voucher.
Here’s mine.
The winner will be chosen by my parish priest.
Please include video links if possible.
Lines MUST close at Saturday 6am.

Name that year, anyone?
N.O.A.H. – Shine
Not to be confused with Noah And The Whale.
N.O.A.H. are an Irish rock trio comprising Ryan Hill (vocals and guitar), Adam Rooney (bass) and Ronan Hynes (drums).
This mysterious Kells, Meath-based video (directed and edited by Mark JD Smyth) for their debut single will keep you wondering what it’s all about (in all senses of the phrase).
Nick says: Don’t be afraid of the Ark.

Mmf.
Hi all, please check out my gaming channel, here is a quick clip of me playing the Irish Government’s new game “Lockdown Level System” where I’ll be trying to figure out if it’s possible to unlock Level 5 restrictions while playing Level 3. pic.twitter.com/BJ35UMly4C

Still.
Beats the German version, in fairness.
Revelino – Happiness Is Mine
This video is (literally) a walk in the park.
Cult Dublin band Revelino’s eponymous debut was released in 1994 to great critical acclaim on both sides of the Irish Sea. ‘Happiness is Mine’, “a lost classic of 90s indie-melancholia”, was one of the singles of the year.
The re-mastered album, now available on vinyl for the first time, comes with a bonus ‘Happiness Is Mine ’ 12” yellow vinyl Remix EP.
The album is the best-selling of the week so far on vinyl, and was released on what would have been John’s Lennon’s 80th birthday.
Fingers crossed for Brendan, Bren and the boys.
Nick says: Walkin’ back to happiness.

Leopardstown, County Dublin.
What little cash was left in the 1980s went on the gee-gees.
Soft ‘g’, ladies.
