Reeling In The Years

I would like them to play "I'm Feeling It (In the Air)" by Mark McCabe for the 2017 episode, to make up for them not playing "Maniac" on the 2000 episode.

I'd also like to hear Fontaines DC, Villagers and James Vincent McMorrow on the show. Would LOVE to hear "Lawman" by Girl Band on the 2014 episode, it's got really cool riffs that sound like chainsaws. Unlikely they will though.

2018 will be some episode, thinking back now that year is almost nothing compared to what were going through now

They shouldn't make them so recent.

I saw fidget spinners in one clip...eh what? That's hardly something worth including. Likewise the Theresa Mannion clip in Galway.

From May 2020-2021 will be rubbish when they make it.

Which will not be until sometime in the 2030s assuming RTE are still around then.

You'd be surprised when we see the 2010/2011/2012 episodes in terms of remembering things and songs

The early 2000s episodes brought back a lot of stuff i forgot

What songs would we all like to hear on the show? I think my choices (see post #32) are pretty good. I just hope they don't play it too safe. As I said I think that song by Girl Band would be a great choice for the 2014 edition.

Looking forward to this

Don't worry if you miss the first airing it will no doubt be repeated many many times

Virgins 'Don't Look back in anger' was good but its no reeling in the years

Siar na 70's/80's/90's is well worth a watch. More local angles and some unintentionally hilarious incidents and characters!

Don't think the point is to highlight some niche enough music, has to be some of the most popular music from the decade in keeping with the other ones

I kind of understand, but some of their music choices in past episodes have been terrible.

If they don't play any of those X Factor singers I'm good with that.

Gangnham Style will surely be in it.

Ed Sheeran breaking through will also be in it I guess.

They'll play whatever was the biggest song at the time.

I'd imagine there's zero chance that any of the ones you've suggested will appear.

I assume Ed Sheeran, One Direction and Adele will feature prominently.

Looking forward to seeing this, but would love if rather than every decade, they could do an episode a year or even every five years.

Here's the Mark McCabe song I was talking about; it was something of a comeback hit for him around 2017/2018. Since they didn't play "Maniac 2000" in the 2000 episode I think this song in the 2017 episode would compensate for that.

It's essentially a remake of Nalin & Kane's "Beachball", but a good song nonetheless.

I know from the promos that Hozier will be used on the show.

The censored version of Horse Outside is unintentionally comedic.

'Looks like Billie Piper after half a bag of jokes'

PTH2009

Jesus 'Horse outside' is that old

Remember went it that Munster vs Leinster game

Amy and Drico 11 years married who thought it be this long

Hoping for some Paul the Octopus content.

Really excited about this until I realised that ten weeks later I will be waiting another ten years for the next installment! Not sure how to handle that.

This series is not as exciting as the 1970s 1980s ones, which were released in the early 00s when the internet was still growing and we rarely saw clips from these decades, except on TV shows.

Now the new series of 2010 etc clips can be accessed in a second on You Tube.

Good segue
