my lovely horse

OK, we're not claiming to be mind readers, but we're going to take a wild guess here and assume you know all the words to the Father Ted classic, My Lovely Horse?

Yeah, that's what we thought.

It's become somewhat of an unlikely anthem for Irish people around the world and we're secretly hoping that one day we'll throw caution to the wind and actually enter it in the Eurovison.

And you know what? With these boy singing, we might just be in with a chance.

The Ramparts, a male acapella group from Dublin, took to St. Stephen's Green this week to perform there own rendition of the beloved song.  

Set up by Ruaidhrí O’Dálaigh, the male voice choir sing everything from trad to pop – and of course, barbershop.

The group also just so happen to be the only Irish act set to compete in BBC One's new show, Pitch Battle.

The first episode airs Saturday, July 15.

We know who we'll be rooting for anyway.

We have to admit that our most recent Eurovision bids have not gone down well.

And it looks like these Dublin lads want to up the game a bit by singing a song that everyone knows and loves.

Indie-pop band, Fallen Lights, headed out to Father Ted's house in Ennis, Co. Clare to sing a brilliant rendition of My Lovely Horse.

And, we have to say, they really pulled it off. So much so, that we reeeally want them to be our next Eurovision entry.

Fallen Lights are currently doing a tour around Ireland. Tonight they are playing in Offaly, with their gigs ending in Dublin at the end of this month.
