    Coláiste Lurgan are absolutely brilliant, once again!

    The Gaeltacht summer camp, which has been making headlines with their famous Irish versions of famous hits, have now released their own version of the iconic ‘80s hit, Toto’s “Africa”.

    When you listen to it, you will probably think that it sounds better in Irish than the original English version!

    The group has also covered songs such as  Avicii’s “Wake Me Up,” Hozier’s “Someone New,” and Sia’s “Chandelier,” along with a fantastic version of Adele’s “Hello”.

    Watch the amazing video below:
