Just for Fun – “Hop Tu Naa” and “Mannifest” Song Downloads

Taken to the habit of writing a song for each party we do, well, have done it twice now, first for the “Funky Zoo” party at the Ballagroove / Rotten Planet tent at Mannifest 2010”, enjoyed it so did another for last nights “Death at the Hop (Tu Naa)” party.

For those of you who don’t know “Hop Tu Naa” is our Celtic New Years Eve, represents the coming of “The Dark” (winter) so we all dress up a scary loons, carve evil faces into moots (turnips), sing mad songs and have a party. “Hop Tu Naa” is an old song, with many variants, virtually one for every village on the Island, so why not have another one, its not particularly loyal to the original but so be it.

Hope you like it, Happy ‘Hop Tu Naa’ !

“Hop Tu Naa” by Buggane from the album “Hot Turnip” - Death at the Hop (Tu Naa)

And, seems as I forgot to post it up here at the time, here is the “Funky Zoo” track we did for “Mannifest 2010”
