Hold me closer Tiny Dancer... Irish style

Paddy Casey, Mundy, Tom Dunne, Mary Black and a host of others have teamed up for a charity single for a four-year-old from Galway.

LILY-MAE MORRISON from Claregalway suffers from Stage 4 Neuroblastoma, a rare cancer. Three-hundred Irish singers have come together to perform a version of Elton John’s Tiny Dancer in order to raise funds and awareness.

They want to get the single to the Christmas number one spot.
