We had a brief taste last night, but now we can bask in two minutes of front row power balladeer brilliance.
In a bid to get his hands on Electric Picnic tickets for the Irish Women’s Rugby team, Leinster and Ireland player Cian Healy has posted a short video of himself belting out a power ballad by Electric Picnic 2014 act Bonnie Tyler last night.
But not content with just doing a typical effort, Healy gets all dressed up, ropes in a mate to play piano and makes fine use of a wind machine, some dry ice and a candle.
We reckon those tickets are in the bag. Top man.
UPDATE: And now here is the full video, covering two entire minutes. Amazing.
UPDATE II: Sure enough, the folks at Electric Ireland came through and delivered for the women’s team. The power of #PowerBallads…
Congrats @irishrugby women’s team @CoghlanFiona we’ll get the tickets out to you and we look forward to seeing you at @epfestival!
