Disney’s Frozen proved to be a smash hit around the world. The catchy songs in the film became the subject of new trend of videos posted on to YouTube, both of kids singing them and adults lip syncing them, some with more success than others.
This little guy certainly nailed it, and by singing Let It Go in Irish he has a unique quality to his performance.
The preservation of the Irish language has been an issue of debate in Ireland for centuries. Great historical figures such as Douglas Hyde and William Smith O’Brien spent years of their lives encouraging people to use their native language.
In recent years, it appears as though Irish is making a comeback. It was reported that Irish language is making a return to colleges as thousands of students are choosing to include it as part of their studies.
There is also a music school in Galway that is doing their bit to promote the language to young people, by translating and performing pop songs and posting them online.
