Video: Here’s Nadia Forde singing the national anthem

A slightly slower version than what we expected, but it certainly got the crowd at the Aviva fired up

A slightly slower version than what we expected, but it certainly got the crowd at the Aviva fired up

Whether she did a good or a bad job, model-turned-singer Nadia Forde was always going to make headlines with her version of Amhrán na bhFiann tonight at the Ireland game.

She gave the song a particularly slow treatment, much more low tempo than the normally stirring versions we’re used to, but we’re not about to stand up in front of a packed stadium and belt out the anthem solo, so we have to give her props for it.
