Don’t worry, “Ireland’s Call” is banned.
Irish rugby star Jordi Murphy will make his DJ debut at the official launch of 3Plus, Three’s new rewards programme at 3Arena on Thursday night.
Since Jordi is making his big debut, we’ve decided to help him out by picking 10 songs we think he should play on the night.
1. Eiffel 65 – Blue
Jordi plays with Leinster, their jersey is the colour…
2. Rednex – Cotton Eye Joe
“This one goes out to big Joe Schmidt,” and then the song kicks in. Magic.

3. Irish football team – Put ‘Em Under Pressure
Thursday marks the 25th anniversary of Ireland’s penalty shootout win over Romania.
4. Freddie Mercury – Barcelona
Jordi was born in the Spanish city. Add some beats and synth to Freddie’s voice and it’s a choon.
5. Baha Men – Who Let The Dogs Out?
Jordi represented Ireland’s U20 side 13 times, they are also known as the “Wolfpuppies,” and wolf is a type of dog.
Who? Who? Who? Who?
6. Flight of the Conchords – Business Time
The Leinster and Ireland man studied Business in college. Made up reports suggest Jordi entered every lecture to this song.
7. Interpol – Song Seven
The number on Jordi’s back deserves it’s own song.
8. De La Soul – The Magic Number
Speaking of numbers, the gig is on at 3Arena so this De La Soul classic has to get a spin.

9. Eminem – Shake That
Jordi revealed to us on our Tombola of Truth that the best gig he’s ever been to is Eminem in Slane.
10. Dropkick Murphys – Shipping Up To Boston
A song that will drive any crowd wild with Dropkick Murphys and Jordi Murphy are basically family.
