The Brennans made up Clannad, Dalyer........half them ended up gee-eyed and the other half bought castles in Dalkey etc. I spilled a pint all over Ciaran Brennan by accident in 1992. He was twisted in Buglers after winning some award. His "wee sister" had to calm him down and apologise to me for his behaviour. Too many of them and too much money made from writing film scores and theme tunes....they couldn't handle it. Hollywood paid them huge money for "Doigh ar Bith" which was used in Last of the Mohicans. They changed the spelling to Doyee air bih to facilitate the Yanks and Brits.
Saved me having to type all that, thanks TIL.

Bitte schon as they say in Annagary.

In a lifetime. Version with Brian Kennedy covering for HRH Bono was better when they played the Trad-fest in Temple Bar in 2013. My ex mott dragged me along and I was suitably impressed with Clannad's following..
