Damo and Ivor…
Yer man would be Ivor…
Watching too much American Kardashian shite on the tele is what it is.
Mid Atlantic accent. Curated in Dublin 4 schools through elocution lessons in order to produce “talent” for RTE.
Very obviously from the Borough of Dun Laoghaire and Rathdown by how he pronounced the t in court. That’s an inbred thing, you grow up hearing it.
Trying to put a radio accent on, to flatten out the normal speaking voice. If he slowed down and perhaps deepened his voice a little it wouldn’t sound so odd.
It’s very much a media voice, like the posh voice your Ma used to put on when she answered the phone back in the day
bog standard Irish voice over accent
Speaking of the Verve – did you know they made pretty much no money from that song until, I think, 2012? There was a legal dispute over a sample they used and Rolling Stones got all the money raised from the track
That’s south Dublin with a bit of the wank taken out of it
That’s a typical south side accent. Sad thing is these fools think they sound Uber sophisticated.
It’s a mix between south dub and American. Definitely not standard south Dublin
He seems like he’d use the word totes instead of totally.
It’s like instead of west Brit it’s east yank
