17 St Patrick's Day anthems for lockdown celebrations
We'll help you get in the mood ☘️
Last updated 17th Mar 2021
St Patrick's Day is celebrated in more countries around the world than any other national day! Sadly for the second year in a row now we've had to celebrate St Patrick's Day from home - it just doesn't feel right?
March 17th is the only day of the year it's socially acceptable to wear a totally green outfit, eat Tayto cheese and onion sandwiches and enjoy a pint of the black stuff before noon.
Typically the streets are filled with green cheer and plenty of beer, but this year all parades and festivities are cancelled. But just because we're all in lockdown, it doesn't mean you can't have a laugh at home.
Ireland is home to a symphony of sounds - from fiddly Celtic choruses to alternative punk and electric pop. Complete your St Patrick's Day playlist with some of our favourite tunes that will leave you dancing a jig the living room.
U2 - Beautiful Day
Two Door Cinema Club - What You Know
Ed Sheeran - Nancy Mulligan
