[@seanahernclon]

Follow me up to Carlow also Fiachna mac hugh o’beirne is the name of the tune

[@thefeebles]

Do these dancers get totally sick of the song while rehearsing the dance? To be this precise, I imagine they have to listen to it hundreds of times.

[@jennacablair]

Aran Johnson yes. For teams and sets its very annoying listening to the same song over and over but for solos we get to change it up:)

[@avionpiscean33]

jennacablair I get that way with saint Patrick's day.

[@bethbarrie118]

Haha! I hadn't ever thought of that (I grew up with this stuff, as my mother was an Irish dancing teacher) but I'm sure it must be for most dancers!

[@spokaneharanirishdancers1571]

As an Irish Dance teacher, I can tell you this-- if I want to tune out music, I absolutely can. All I hear is the beat. The song itself doesn’t exist. 😂

I learnt this dance when I was 10 and YESSS
