Hallelujah, sung at a Wedding [by the Priest]

Rocker

This short video features a priest from Tyrrellspass [close to where I live in Co. Westmeath].

Enjoy.

Of all the weddings I've played for nothing like this ever happened!  There were a few where "the brides cousin", or "Uncle Tommy" were to sing a pre-arranged song with my guitar for accompaniment but......I got over most of what I was subjected to with just a few therapy sessions.

Just found out that Fr Kelly is Parish Priest in Oldcastle, Co. Meath.  He hails from Tyrrellspass......

That was brilliant,quite moving.

On a side note there's probably an inappropriate R Kelly joke somewhere there but in the name of good taste I think I shall refrain

I seem to be the only person on this wavelength, but I think it's one of the most naffest, most cringeworthy things I've ever seen.
