Songs For Boris.
With the news that the scarecrow haired professional bumbler Boris Johnson is the new Prime Minster of the UK breaking during the Muireann O'Connell show we thought we'd put it to the people of Ireland to create a playlist for BJ and his staff to play for his arrival at Number 10.
We are doing a special playlist for #BorisJohnson@MuireannO_C has got some suggestions so far... Radiohead's 'Creep' is really on point, "I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo.What the hell am I doing here? I don't belong here." 👀

This got a huge number of votes from listeners and the lyrics are spot on!
"clowns to the left of me, jokers to the right" = Brexit.
Steeler's Wheel - 'Stuck In The Middle With You'
The Black Eyed Peas - 'Shut Up'
This chorus is what we all want to say:
Scary, Posh and the other girls had his cards marked years ago.
The Spice Girls - 'Who Do You Think You Are'
A class tune and scarily appropriate lyrics: "I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo.What the hell am I doing here? I don't belong here."
Radiohead - 'Creep'
Another big hitter with listeners. This cracker:
The Frames - 'Fake'
There's no denying it so many of you were straight to the point. No messin'
