She’d be better off singing her songs now than talking about Bertie.
If she’s who we are relying on for political discourse in this country we are goosed
I’ve only recently become aware of this singer. She’s an inspiration.
You had two years to post this and managed to somehow be too late
Shut up you silly person. Stick with the music. You’re quite good at that. Also listen to the news.
Why does she hate Bertie so much, for someone who was a child at the time it seems personal
I’m as happy as anyone else that Bertie’s presidential ambitions have been killed. But I don’t for one second believe CMAT had anything to do with it.
>“I can trace it all back to the early 2000s, and the greed there,” she tells me. “And how that absolutely fucking ruined the village that I grew up in. People are a bit traumatised in this country. We’ve been traumatised by the last 20 years, and by a specific couple of figures who I’d love to name – and maybe I will in a while…”
In the „early 2000s she was, at most, 9 years old, and while things which happened in your childhood can have a huge impact on your development, I don’t think the economic situation (which in the early 2000s was the best it had ever been) is going to be all that directly impactful.
What came after 2008/9 sure. But we all have the same story of dealing with the aftermath of the death of the Celtic Tiger, but it feels like she’s hamming it up big time to tap into a market for generational trauma, which doesn’t belong to her.
Fair play, it seems to be working out for her, but it just rings hollow for me.
I do not know who this is, guess I have some music to listen to.
Everybody wants to be Zach de la Rocha now.
CMAT… The latest „trend“.
