Corrigan Brothers' - "There's No One as Irish as Barack O'Bama?" invited to Inauguration per ABC
There's No One as Irish as Barack O'Bama?

December 21, 2008 10:40 AM

From the Irish town of Moneygall -- from whence President-elect Obama says his great great great grandfather hailed -- comes a song: "There’s no one as Irish as Barack Obama."



The Corrigan Brothers' new anthem features the chorus “O’Leary, O’Reilly, O’Hare and O’Hara -- there’s no one as Irish as Barack Obama." And, ABC News' Miguel Marquez reports, they have apparently been invited to play at the inauguration.

The Corrigan Brothers first came to note as Hardy Drew and the Nancy Boys and had an Irish rap called Cúpla Focal.
