WE HAVE JOXER, Put ‘Em Under Pressure and Give It A Lash Jack – but what about some more modern classics for the boys in green?

This might be the one.

Kildare singer Mick Konstantin wrote a song last week before heading over to France for the Euros. He played it live earlier today on the streets of Bordeaux with a ukelele for Pundit Arena on Facebook – and within an hour it’s already been viewed nearly half a million times.

Probably because it’s an absolute tune

It’s called Taking Over France, and it’s blowing up.

Here’s the guitar version Mick put up on Facebook last week – and that stands at over 100,000 views in its own right

It’s safe to say given the reaction we could have a bona fide Euro 2016 anthem on our hands here

Instant classic.

    Could do with being translated again by something other than google translate.

    Agreed but I also think it adds to the authenticity. Couldn’t help but read it in a French accent! Nice work, Irish fans.
