“There’s Only One Conor McGregor.”

Kildare teacher and singer songwriter, Mick Konstantin, has shot to stardom in the last seven days with the release of ‘There’s Only One Conor McGregor’.

Just hours after releasing the song on his Facebook page, Konstantin’s ode to The Notorious was already being picked up by global media.

In what has been an unprecedented week of fame for his hit song, Konstantin was invited to travel to Las Vegas by McGregor and his team to be part of the action.

“It’s all been a bit crazy really,” quipped Konstantin. “I really love creating music people enjoy, I could never have dreamt that the song would have reached the heights it has.

“McGregor’s team rang me the following day and told me Conor loved the song. That was amazing that he heard the song and liked it, but then McGregor and his team asked if I’d like to go to the fight.

“Conor said that they wanted to fly me over, put me up in a hotel, and get me tickets for myself and a friend. It was a dream come true.”

While the song was launched on Facebook, Konstantin was inundated with requests to make the hit song available for download.

Konstantin, ever grateful for the continued support of fans, family, friends and McGregor, has decided to give something back to ensure as many people benefit from his hit single as possible.

“I have decided to donate all iTunes sales of “There’s Only One Conor McGregor” until the fight to a charity Conor supports. The proceeds of the sales will go to Our Lady’s Children’s Hospital, Crumlin because I’d love to see the hospital benefit from this and see the proceeds going to a good cause.”

“There’s Only One Conor McGregor” is now available to download and purchase on iTunes.
