    I am speechless. What are the odds? Two days ago, I told my friend I couldn't wait for the next Colm video. And since she's a big ABBA fan, she suggested you should cover an ABBA song. And I said to her: I would love to hear Gimme!Gimme!Gimme!
    And here it is! ❤

    Lyrics for anyone who wants them:
    Half-past twelve
    And I'm watching the late show in my flat all alone
    How I hate to spend the evening on my own
    Autumn winds
    Blowing outside the window as I look around the room
    And it makes me so depressed to see the gloom
    There's not a soul out there
    No one to hear my prayer
    Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight
    Won't somebody help me chase the shadows away?
    Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight
    Take me through the darkness to the break of the day
    Movie stars
    Find the end of the rainbow with a fortune to win
    It's so different from the world I'm living in
    Tired of TV
    I open the window and I gaze into the night
    But there's nothing there to see, no one in sight
    There's not a soul out there
    No one to hear my prayer
    Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight
    Won't somebody help me chase the shadows away?
    Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight
    Take me through the darkness to the break of the day
    Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight
    Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight
    There's not a soul out there
    No one to hear my prayer
    Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight
    Won't somebody help me chase the shadows away?
    Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight
    Take me through the darkness to the break of the day
    Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight
    Won't somebody help me chase the shadows away?
    Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight
    Take me through the darkness to the break of the day

I've had most of your stuff on repeat for weeks, love the huge collab you did with Bobby Bass for Misty mountains as well! Your rendition of the chemical workers song is part of my morning routine. Very grateful for people like you in the world, long live the bard!

    but seriously, Colm - I never get tired of being amazed by your creativity and ability to make each song your own, while still respecting the original. I send rays of warmth and sincere loads of inspiration!

I had no idea you could scream like that!! But it made me so happy, and it just made the cover of this song a hundred times more epic!!!
