This is what happens when you ask people to sing in Irish at 4am
Props to the ladies belting out Óró, sé do bheatha ‘bhaile while doing the Macarena.
MOST PEOPLE LIKE a good sing-song, especially those carried out in the wee hours (unless it’s in your neighbour’s house).
With this in mind, Ravelóid – an Irish language music festival – set up a camera in Dublin city at 4am and asked passersby to sing as Gaeilge.
Some people got really into it – and we’re glad they did.
Props to the ladies belting out Óró, sé do bheatha ‘bhaile while doing the Macarena. You can watch the full video below.
Ravelóid will take place on the grounds of Ardgillan Castle in north county Dublin on 11-11 June. The line-up includes Delorentos, Kíla and HamsandwicH. More information can be found here.
