The electronic pioneer played a show at the Royal Hospital Kilmainham yesterday (August 21) and towards the end of the set, he paid tribute to one of the country’s most beloved comedy songs.
He introduced the track by telling the crowd, “If you need a new national anthem, may I suggest this song?”.
It was written by The Divine Comedy‘s Neil Hannon, alongside Father Ted creators Graham Linehan and Arthur Matthews, and was later included as a B-side on The Divine Comedy’s 1999 single ‘Gin Soaked Boy’.
It is not the first time that Moby has played ‘My Lovely Horse’ live – in 2001, he performed it Father Dougal actor Ardal O’Hanlon in front of approximately 80,000 people at Slane Castle in Ireland.
Moby, meanwhile, is in the middle of a run of European dates, and at a recent show on Brighton Beach, he praised the UK’s role in developing rave culture, telling the crowd that British DJs and promoters had transformed house music into the communal experience he discovered during visits in the early ’90s.
He released his latest studio album ‘Future Quiet’ in February, and recently described the Trump government as “the most corrupt, evil and incompetent” administration.
