In light of the fantastic news that Irish pop group B*Witched are reforming for a special TV show, we thought that now was an entirely appropriate time to put a shout out to the Irish bands that we think need to reunite soon.
1. OTT
OTT were a very popular Irish-boy band in the mid-90s. With classic 90s floppy hair and a bizarre need in every song to look lost, alone and in need of a hug, OTT had all the essential boyband material.
2. The Boomtown Rats
Possibly the best band to listen to if you were feeling a bit moody. 70s/80s band The Boomtown Rats would make any day feel a bit less awful, after all, who really likes Monday's anyway?
3. The Revs
Remember when indie was cool?! Why did these fellas have to go their separate ways? The lads from Donegal were the best in Irish indie music back in the early noughties.
Seeing as their former lead singer Rory Gallagher is back in the limelight with his hit Jimmy's Winning Matches, bringing them back would make a lot of sense.
4. Six
They went through the grueling TV show, talent search process and yet never really got the chance to reach their fame. Bursting out in a heartfelt rendition of 'Whole Lotta Lovin' is nothing to be ashamed of. Bring Six back!
5. Westlife
Sure what's Ireland without the Westlifes! Sure they didn't exactly write much original material, and sure they relied heavy on epic key changes but that's what made them great. Let us not forget that beautiful moment singing atop The Cliffs of Moher...
Bonus
Oh heck let's relive that Irish dancing in B*Witched's 'C'est La Vie' again.
