Fcuk knows why, I had to check them out on google to see what they're all about. Brought me back to the horrible nights stuck in a little pub in towns where showbands are still big where some guy with a massive PA stuck in a corner plays every hick song known to man and the crowd love it. Bloody awful.

Mr E

Some US chat show (Ellen maybe?) tweeted about them, and their popularity exploded.

Jip

Yeah, I just read that in Ian O'Dohertys column, hence me googling them moments before I saw this thread. I still don't understand why though, is it because to the yanks this is a new fresh sound ?

I wish them all their best in their success but as I said, they sound just like every other C&W troupe you'd see in any village every weekend.

I think the Late Late production team are confused about why Crystal Swing have become a YouTube hit. It's not because people like the music or their act. It's because its so cringeworthingly awful that so many people have watched it. If CS have played this up knowing full well its a joke then fair play to them. They're a lot more business savvy than I thought. I suspect they really are just naive C&I zealots though.

Actually, we did the background on CS family yesterday; genuinely lovely people who appear to get it. The Crystal is from Ms. Gayle.

Is that Liz Hurley from Molhill

irishgrover

there is something heartwarming about a brother, sister and mammy lovingly telling the story of a Hispanic lady talking dirty to a drunk, in a trailer park 3000 miles away....

I wonder will social services be keeping an eye on them.. Very, very odd. Derbhla is gorgeous though :-)

By god those guests are slim pickings.

Liz Hurley may have been relevant once upon a time, possibly 1994-95 ish. And how have I not heard of those 'internet sensations?'. I use the internet all the time....

She was popular for the pin dress and dating Hugh Grant

She is a terrible actress imo

I hope Ryan asks her about Hugh and the prossie

Jip

Yeah, we'll never forgive Hugh for his misdemeanor with the protestant that time.

Yeah, but it's not just the Late Late, every freaking article concerned with them is something referring to Gately. It really is overplayed now.

Hmmm..... They sound perfect for the show so. :pac:

Looking forward to this thread tonight though. It was comedy gold last week. I'm sure there's bound to be a laugh with Crystal Swing and Boyzone.

That camera work has to be seen to be believed. No wonder the Irish have started winning Oscars.

That's not gonna take long:-D
She will also be talking to Amanda Brunker in the Sunday World magazine: desperate times Liz...

Were Boyzone not on the Late Late milking their dead freind's death already?

RubyBlu

I don't understand how Boyzone and the other ones are on the Late Late so often. They are on every second week. Pat Kenny used to just kiss their asses. Why???
