THere I was sitting watching Coronation Street as you do when that slapper of a woman and her letch of a boss are out in an Irish pub with the rest of the workforce celebrating Paddies Night. When blow my socks off they are sitting getting cosy and a tune starts.... What a wicked tune I love it ...This is wicked music ...We must dance to this.
And the wicked music was "The fields of Athenry".

But add to this the World karoake Attempt at the millenium Stadium The other week as a precursor to the start of the Six Nation match .. What was the song the chose yes "The fields of Athenry".

Is there something going on here????

Yes, yes. There is something going on here, and you don't know what it is, do you, Mr. Noddy?

It is a world wide conspiracy of evility and wickedness. It is explained in a coded message in the notes of "The Fields...".

Beware.

What you do is: you copy the CD onto your PC as a WAV file; then, using a suitable editor, examine the gaps between the tracks. What looks like low-volume thermal noise is, in fact, a secret coded message. Use your editor to concatenate these bits of data into one continuous stream of data. Then comes the really secret part: how to decode the message. I can't tell you more than that: I've already said too much. But take care to line your hat with baking foil, so the spy satellites can't read your brainwaves. I can't guarantee anything, but I've got away with it so far. Good luck!

No, no, Kat, it's the Fields of At-hen-way... about 2 pounds.

Is this a step forward for folk music?

Is "The Fields.." the best tune they could come up with?

Is the Media finaly coming round to trying to promote Folk Music to the masses???!!!

I was lucky on Paddy's Day. It's the only day I sing the dreadful song because you're always asked to. This year I didn't need to cos the landlord decided to sing it. What a 'bloody nice chap'

Maybe the true message lies in an anagram...?, e.g

Deafen the flirts, hoy!
Fathered Elfish Tony
Deafen others filthy
I fly forth and seethe

moo

Or it could be that someone involved in multiple projects licensed the use of that tune - and rather then go through the hassles of getting something else just used it in multiple places.

Any chance it is tied in with the Dutch plan to take over the world?

They are quietly trying to raise the ocean level until all other countries are flooded.

BUT The two characters were able to converse in normal tones as the music was barely audible -in a music pub on St Patrick's night! They'd have had to shout their heads off!
