The video was first seen on British television on Big Brother's Little Brother. The song is about Spiral's hometown of Finglas.[1]
The song re-entered the Irish Singles Chart on 10 August 2006 at #9, after his profile had risen due to leaving the Big Brother House.[2]
The song had initially peaked at #38 on 16 March 2006 .[3]
[edit] Trivia
Spiral’s spelling of the word “Finglas” as part of the lyrics of the song was later the focus of his interview on The Podge and Rodge Show, where he was jokingly mocked with Podge saying “At least you learned how to spell Finglas”.
