    What is the Roman name for Newcastle?

    Are you referring to Newcastle Co. Down or Newcastlewest Co. Limerick? If it's the latter I'll have a stab at it.

    I know this is a cryptic one but it's so easy just to get answers on the web...

    Which Irish Singer Songwriter shares a hit single title with the band that Mrs John Murphy formed after the Pixies?

    Just to give more info; Mrs John Murphy is actually better known by her real name and didn't form this band as Mrs John Murphy. The hit single is only the same by name and is not actually the same song.
