Music on loudspeaker before Tipp v Cork anyone?

Drugness

Hello all
I was at the Tipp v Cork match in Semple Stadium a few weeks ago and was curious about that song that was played over the loudspeakers before the match started.
I think the guy said that someone had won a competition to write a song about the Tipp hurlers and that was the tune being broadcast.
Anyone know this tune? I'm looking for the lyrics in particular but if i can get a copy of the song (as mp3 preferably) than even better
Thanks everyone
DG

The song is called "The Mighty Blue and Gold" and was written by Seamus Doran of Roscrea, he won the Premier Song Competition with it. Afraid I can't help you with the lyrics but it's due to be released on CD soon I think.

pyramuid man

the lyrics for the song were on the match programme that day in semple. If you know anyone who was at the game they might have one. If not PM me, i think i still have it

Op,

Did you find this in the end, I have a programme somewhere at home, I'll put up lyrics if you still need them.

A better song (which didn't win that comp) is We're from Tipperary - you tube it. (I'm in work so can't link to it unfortunately)

it's from Erins Own (I think - not 100% on that though)

Check this out, a song for the Tipperary Team called "The Premier Rap" done for fun by a local band from Cahir called Johnny B & The Boogie Men. It's top class:

Keep an eye out on YouTube and the bands Myspace/Facebook for the video which should be up soon enough.

I heard it was on the radio alright. It's also been played by the DJ in a pub at the weekend.
