1. That was so cute. I am so chuffed by the international exuberance over Obama.

2. Thank you Jackeens! What a catchy tune this is...
I like this version of the Barack Obama song, who was the group singing it?

(Can't find an Irish flag smilie anywhere...) Ireland Forever!!!

3. They're called....gulp....Hardy Drew and the Nancy Boys - but:
it's not all smiles - they're in a legal dispute with another fella over ownership of the song! See, everyone wants a bit of Barack!!!

5. Hardy Drew and the Nancy Boys ... : )
Luvs it! I was on youtube some weeks ago and came across Shay Black's version of the song and to tell you the truth, I couldn't finish watching the video. The Boys' original song is great! One of these years I'll get to visit Ireland, where I'll drink a pint (or two) in Barack Obama's honor.

Thank you for the link!

:)
