Finally, I'm sure it's not necessary to add that Feargal's singing and dancing would be so enjoyed when seen all the way through the song - he is SO enjoying himself!

Remember seeing this on TV on Top Of The Pops when it came out……I was just starting high school and it’s been one of my favourite songs ever since….along with “A Good Heart”, just brilliant songwriting for Feargal’s totally unique voice. Whoever came up with the design and choreography for this video is a genius though…..the guys dancing with the trombones, the two drummers, the women marching up and down the stairs, all in lock step with the rhythm of the track…..it’s simplicity is a joy to watch.
