I remember that summer in Dublin.
(From Irish Independent)
(. . . and the Liffey it stank like hell etc)
The old hit song by Liam Reilly and Bagatelle is still popular with people here because it evokes memories of the golden summers of years gone by when Dublin was a very different place. In a new series, CATHERINE MURPHY talks to people about their favourite summers in Dublin, beginning with Marian Keyes
For young Dubliners, Mundy's 'July' is an essential summer song, evokingmemories of last year's Witnness festival at Fairyhouse and open air gigs at Dublin Castle.
But for the over-35s, Bagatelle's Summer In Dublin - written a quarter of a century ago- still conjures up images of the old town. Written by Liam Reilly in 1978 and dominating the airwaves in 1980, his song was actually about getting away from the city, as theopening lines tell;
Take me away from the city,
take me to where I can be on my own.
