A 1930s SONG which has been reborn as an anthem celebrating the death of Margaret Thatcher has made it to number 2 in the official UK singles chart.
‘Ding! Dong! The Witch is Dead’, from the 1939 film version of ‘The Wizard of Oz’, failed in its attempt to get to number one – but did push its way into the top end of the chart, forcing the BBC to address it in the weekly broadcast of the latest singles chart.
The broadcaster had opted against playing the full song – even though it is only 51 seconds long – hoping not to inflame tensions between supporters and opponents of Thatcher, the former prime minister who died last Monday aged 87.
However, it did play an excerpt from the song as part of a brief news clip explaining Thatcher and her deeply divisive legacy.
People Piss on the Northside and Urinate on the Southside
very good
Nice one
Every year they moan, every year nothing happens, every year concert goes increase local business…
Ah now their taking the p!ss
Taking a piss OMG, I wonder when they walk their poodles do their dogs have to take a leak? Probably not! Why not plant a refugee site in the middle of Foxrock, that will give them something to moan about. As 99% of the PC brigade reside on the Southside, practice what you preach and help out the poor refugees.
Foxrock is nowhere near Marlay Park.
How long by unicycle?
Used to live there, every Saturday and Sunday entrance blocked by idiots out walking in the park or whatever, part of the joys of living near such an amenity just as at Croker. Let the young folk enjoy those concerts and stop moaning or move up to the top of the 3 Rock and become off the grid spoon whittlers FFS. Just think of sitting in yer yard listening to the music for free
Irish “rockers” Kodalin. No, they are not rockers! They are indie, Thin Lizzy, Rory Gallagher, Gary Moore, now they were Irish Rockers!
If you ask me they are taking the piss
Got their before me. Damn stubby fingers!
Urinating at will all over the place, who dream’s up these headlines, most of us can urinate at will, we just use the toilet.
In fairness there’s probably f**k-all public toilets put out. Ireland’s approach to public toilets tends to be “find a pub”
Yes indeed. We have a Northside for that sort of carry – on!
Always somebody to moan about something in this country, now if it was for a Gareth Brooks concert I would be in favor of it been cancelled
It’s not Gareth, it’s Garreth.
It’s actually Garth Del
If you got to go, you got to go.
Same old whingers with the same old whinge. Give it a rest for God sake.
You live how close to the concerts?
Rock music should be banned from populated areas.
Concerts should be held in soundproofed industrial units on the outskirts of civilisation.
Electric fences. That’ll sort the problem out.
Especially if they piss on them
“rockers kodaline”… yeah… so rock n roll man
Fair play to the judge.
Maybe if they had better toilet facilities at gigs than the usual portaloos from hell with now air freshening installed
Poor Will, why don’t they piss on someone else for a change.

Folks, Marlay Park is not a suitable concert/festival venue. Simple as.
“Urinating at will all over the place.”. What does Will have to say about that?
On the 12th Will will be urinating on chapels lol.
If they are not shooting at Will, they are pissing at Will….poor guy
Fuddy duddy’s. Its for one weekend ffs.
It’s a 2 month war zone
It’s usually 5-7 gigs in one month including the 3 days of longitude. “Two month war zone”. That’s a ridiculous statement.
In 5 weeks after this concert many girls will be wondering what happened to their period lol.
Residents got of fireworks display, now want get rid of concerts at marley Park,
Widdle me this Widdle me that Who’s afraid of the Big Bad Bat?
If Portoloos were provided not only inside the walls of marley park but on the main road outside, this wouldn’t be an issue. The reality is people will be drinking before the gigs and drink outside before going in. This is how it’s always been and it’s always been tolerated by the guards so it would be more productive to just provide them and keep the area clean
Urine, used condoms and faeces, a few STI’s and traumatised pets. Traumatised pets from seeing the jugheads at it rather than from anything else lol.
And a few knifing on the side, this generation are lobeheads with a K.
A couple of permanent festival sites in the country would suit all. Permanent loos and showers, mini huts, barrack style as part if ticket prices, bins, and food halls too plus indoor stages for rain (often).
Jobs for locals for a change.
Think Glastonbury. Car parking. No noise pollution and central for all in the country
In use for many conferences, adventure holidays for kids, Many uses.
Rural shows of produce. Agricultural shows. Etc.
Opportunities to showcase. Very useful.
Sports facilities, just basic. Track events, tennis courts. Football pitch.
Kids play area, safe and enclosed in case…
have your say
