Neil Hannon | Classical Connections

[@SM-je3dh]

Thank you! Love Neil Hannnon, his Divine comedy and Ireland. Bravo, a French admirer who saw him on stage for a week at La Philharmonie de Paris, inoubliable ! Merci!

Absolute genius, norn iron fan, such an underrated song writer and deserves sooooo much more accolades ;-)

I love Neil. He's like an Irish version of Jarvis cocker.

[@lancevance60]

Except with musical talent.

[@signoguns8501]

@@lancevance60 Yeah, maybe Jarvis was a better songwriter. His songs were very catchy and memorable. but both were quicky and unique. Neil did have his moments tho. Absent friends is a legitimately brilliant song.

[@lancevance60]

@@signoguns8501 I was saying the exact opposite. Neil is musically talented, with proper old-school songwriting chops like Burt Bacharach or whoever. Jarvis is just about image and snark.

I am glad you are a lier.

[@kevinbush4300]

Noooo! Pretty sure he didn't! This is fairly recent.

[@davidgraham7932]

I think you are referring to his father. Neil is very much alive and due to play several concerts over the next fortnight.

[@WhitbyStuff]

Nope.

No need to apologise for your innacurate comment. I cannot understand how you could have got something like this wroing. Maybe you aren't very bright.
