Ah St. Patrick’s Day—when we celebrate whatever percent Irish we are or completely pretend to be Irish for the day. Key elements go into celebrating this great holiday perfectly; lots of green, more shamrocks than you can count, the clinking of bottles and of course, the singing and dancing. Now that you (hopefully) have all that is necessary, it’s simple: learn the accent and sing away like the inner angry Irishman you truly are! Get drunk, get rowdy, or go swap stories with your grandpa and his friends. No matter how you celebrate it, everybody’s Irish tonight! éirinn go bràch!

I can’t believe you left out Van Morrison and The Chieftains- “Star of the County Down”! http://youtu.be/8GbdB7PlGtc (basically anything by The Chieftains is fantastic)
