1. The anthem of the Republic of RTÉ, D4 and the Rugger Buggers.

2. Thanks. I’m after hurting my back cringing at this

3. How much is he paid again?

4. What was wrong with a round of applause and a cheer?

5. Haha this is hilariously cringeworthy

6. Why aren’t people happy? I’m confused. Is it the song or the masks?

7. Why are they waving Gaddafi-era Libyan flags?

8. Yeoh, get up them stairs wud ya and do that again,only this time do it properly with the real flag and anthem, thank you.

9. People on Twitter are never happy.

   The Late Late especially brings out the nut jobs there.

10. Seriously, who came up with that idea at the production meeting? Ffs.

11. They sing this in schools now, rather than our old military style anthem.

12. Sure everyone knows the best way to celebrate Ireland is to wave the old Libyan flag

13. I thought they had an audience before now. Last time I watched it was when they had that thing for Bob Geldof and there were people there.

14. I was in that crowd. It was incredible cringy, but you kinda get caught singing along when the band is playing. Got a free night hotel out of it. I think the green flags is something to do with it being Irish rugby, tricolour doesn’t represent the whole of the north I guess.
