[...] me if this is weird or not… A week on, Crystal Swing’s raunchy He Drinks Tequila is still playing on a constant rotation in my head. Stranger still, when I hum the song to myself, [...]

@Fiona: Yeah, they can sing and would do well on something like All Ireland Talent Show.

It’s just classic cheese with a fantastically inappropriate song. Least it got them some national notice, and shame.

Oh and Derek and Fiona sitting in a tree K-I-S-S-I-N-G…..

Don’t all gang up on me here but Crystal Swing are actually not that bad at all. They can both sing. They’re both good looking. Mum a bit bonkers but looks great for her age.

If they could just rein in Mr Crazy Eyes they’d do really well on something like AllIreland Talent Show (ducks runs for ccover!)

Yeah, but why the hell should any normal young man, independently wealthy to the extent that he can buy his own share of sweets and chocolates, really give a shit what auld ones think about him??

It’s the Daniel O’Donnell conundrum all over again.

Heh. I’d say the oul’ ones absolutely love him, and he loves that the oul’ ones love him.

@ Lauren – Homeschooled. He has to have been. Any schoolyard bully worth their salt would have beaten that chirpyness out of him by the second week of junior infants!

Jesus. Your man is well creepy, the crazy eyes on him. The website is brilliant too. The bit I love most is on the ‘About Crystal Swing’ page, where you have the option of listening to each member’s ’special talent’. Instead of something along the lines of ‘volume up/volume down’, they have ‘Can’t hear it?/Too Loud?’ for their presumably elderly fanbase. They might as well have put ‘turndatuptherenowwudya’ and ‘ahwudyaturnthatjaysusracketdownnow’.

This song came to my attention yesterday as I was doing singles reviews for Ticket so I reviewed it for the crack. Said its a little bit country, a little bit rock and a little bit disturbing. Or words to that effect.

@han shan: The sister to brother line is “You’re so naughty, kiss my body and just call me pretty…”

Harmless they say, if so, why do I feel sick?
