THIS IS FUNNY


The debut album drops late Fall ’09. But Tom O’C already sounds the finished product to me… The only snag is, I think this guy might actually be serious. More Tom O’C here.

With thanks to Mark O’C!

    Too good to be true. He can’t possibly be serious!!

  2. enda Says:

    Oh dear god,,,,,,, those photos in the video are priceless, is that a water gun he’s holding in one shot!

  3. Eoin Says:

    It’s a toy gun Enda, notice he didn’t even bother removing the red tip from the muzzle. (Always attached to prevent toy being used as imitation firearm in an attempted robbery or, y’know… botched hip hop video.)

    I blocked a couple of posts on here, but man are they ever letting this kid have it on YouTube. Poor guy.

  12. Colin Says:

  15. Eoin Says:

    Not sure whether it’s just cos I can’t help comparing ’em to Tom O’C here, but those Cork rappers seem pretty decent.

    Fair play to them, they’re not bad at all…

  16. Colin Says:

    Well I said Tom O’C was worse than the Cork Rappers.

    And let us not forget that one of those rappers (GMC) helped get a man voted to Europe.

    Don’t make the wrong choice, Vote Alan Kelly, Munster needs a strong voice, Vote Alan Kelly !

  17. Eoin Says:

    Doesn’t seem that bad either in the context. I think what Brian Lenihan needs to do this year is invite Tom O’C into the Dail to perform and then, immediately afterwards, deliver his budget.

    That way the public would think “Wow, compared to Tom O’C, this budget really isn’t that bad!”

    I am sure some people were laughing at grandmaster flash and the sugarhill gang too

  21. Eoin Says:

    Jaysus, he doesn’t sell himself short anyway. “Cian Morris is a diversity…” (Huh?) “He has blessed ears loved hearts and kissed lips in prague, Glasgow, liverpool, london, ireland, glastenburry08 (sic) and electric picnic-08 the stage loves cian and he loves the stage…”

    Is he popular in Tipp?

  22. anthony Says:

    I am kinda out of the loop as far as what the kids around nanagh are into these days, in fairness to him he takes a good slagging

  23. Eoin Says:

    Anto – you should dust off your Hammer-time moves and go on tour with him!

  24. anthony Says:

  25. Colin Says:

    “the parachute pants are a much snugger fit these days”

    Going to be haunted by that image next few days.
