Father Ted theme?

[robertson]

The theme music to TV sitcom Father Ted is said to be the track Songs Of Love by The Divine Comedy. Yet, on the band's Best Of album, Songs Of Love doesn't sound anything like the Father Ted theme. On what CD can I buy the Father Ted theme as it sounds on the TV series?

You can't (and yes, it does sound very different as it's played on completely different instruments - the TV version is done on guitar, the LP version is all on keyboards). But you could always get the DVD/video and record it off that.

'My lovely horse'' is a class song!!!

And don't forget the caravan version of 'The whole of the moon' was that in Doolin?
