I have looked everywhere online for Declan Nerney A Christmas Hooley lyrics. I cant find them, does anyone know these lyrics. I know its a random one but the kids in my class really want to learn it for Christmas.

CombatCow · 14-11-2014 11:30AM

Email him and ask :P info@declannerney.com

Monty87 · 14-11-2014 02:26PM

I emailed that address last week and no reply

14-11-2014 02:40PM

Bit of a lame solution but you could play and replay the song (it's on Youtube) and write out the lyrics yourself!

Loving the test transmissions. I drove from Cork to Dublin yesterday and the Christmas music kept me company for a lot of the trip.

Is anyone else having trouble connecting to Christmas FM on either the Android or desktop players? It's not working for me at all

Heroditas · 29-11-2014 12:38PM

It's baaaaaaaaaack!

tomboylady · 30-11-2014 08:02PM

Anyone having any issues with the app? It's cutting out for a few seconds every 30 seconds of so. Kind of annoying when I just want to savour the joy!

Scarinae · 30-11-2014 08:11PM

I've been listening to it for about an hour on my iPhone and it's working fine.

Are you using the same app as last year by any chance? I tried using that and no luck, I had to go onto the Christmas FM website, click a link and download a whole new app for some reason

CombatCow · 30-11-2014 08:54PM

Christmas FM by Christmas Radio Ltd
https://appsto.re/ie/iEHdS.i

This is the one, been working fine for me all day.

Whispered · 30-11-2014 10:00PM

Just downloaded the new app for iPhone and it's not working for me. Few seconds then cuts out.

CombatCow · 30-11-2014 10:31PM

Yeah it's not working at all for me now, or in the tunein radio app, won't buffer the stream.

30-11-2014 10:34PM

Don't know if it helps but this is the link to the stream:

CombatCow · 30-11-2014 10:39PM

Yeah the app seems broken, it's working fine on the tunein radio app for me...

tunguska · 30-11-2014 11:53PM

They just played The bells of St. Marys(from Spector's Christmas album).
Epic, what an amazing tune.

AudreyHepburn · 01-12-2014 09:21AM

If anything is guaranteed to put me into a festive mood, it's Christmas FM! I just love christmas music and songs, I instantly revert to a childlike state on hearing them :-)

leahyl · 01-12-2014 02:29PM

The station seems to be skipping a lot when the songs are playing....it's getting a bit annoying now...

Westeros · 01-12-2014 04:10PM

Christmas FM is the one thing guaranteed to get me into the festive mood! Its been on in the car since Saturday

Last year, Christmas FM was my best friend coming up those dreaded college exams.

03-12-2014 10:27PM

Online stream seems to have been down for several hours.

CombatCow · 03-12-2014 10:44PM

Yeah the stream has been bad for the last two days, I tried the contact form on the site but nothing, kinda frustrating there's no feedback or acknowledgement.

TheCostumeShop.ie: Ronan · 04-12-2014 02:00PM

Hi CombatCow,

That should be fixed now.

One thing I need people to do is get the latest Iphone / Android App. The one from last year isnt supported and due to circumstances beyond our control we weren't able to access it to take it down or update it, so we had to run a new one. It still slightly works but not very well and cuts out often, the new version should be 100% at the moment.

As with all things we still have some minor teething problem (fewer than one might expect because the team have been incredible this year - Station Manager Dan is the man, he's working incredible hours the last few weeks).

Thanks, I don't mean to complain really as I know your all taking your own time doing this for charity

Can you post a link to the app just so we're on the right one.

leahyl · 04-12-2014 04:44PM

The radio station on the internet has improved greatly - no skipping anymore
