Name your Eurovision band........ GO!

I don't know what I expected, but I walked away completely satisfied. 10/10 brother bear 😂

I am speechless. What are the odds? Two days ago, I told my friend I couldn't wait for the next Colm video. And since she's a big ABBA fan, she suggested you should cover an ABBA song. And I said to her: I would love to hear Gimme!Gimme!Gimme! And here it is! ❤

I was just vibing and was NOT ready for that switchup at all, absolutely amazing as always.

I'm getting married next week, and my fiancé and I both love folk and ABBA. Your timing is uncanny, this is perfect ❤

I actually said out loud, “You didn’t,” with a stupid grin on my face when the style switched. Brilliant and an absolute banger as always!

Lyrics for anyone who wants them: Half-past twelve And I'm watching the late show in my flat all alone How I hate to spend the evening on my own Autumn winds Blowing outside the window as I look around the room And it makes me so depressed to see the gloom There's not a soul out there No one to hear my prayer Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight Won't somebody help me chase the shadows away? Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight Take me through the darkness to the break of the day Movie stars Find the end of the rainbow with a fortune to win It's so different from the world I'm living in Tired of TV I open the window and I gaze into the night But there's nothing there to see, no one in sight There's not a soul out there No one to hear my prayer Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight Won't somebody help me chase the shadows away? Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight Take me through the darkness to the break of the day Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight There's not a soul out there No one to hear my prayer Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight Won't somebody help me chase the shadows away? Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight Take me through the darkness to the break of the day Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight Won't somebody help me chase the shadows away? Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight Take me through the darkness to the break of the day

I am SHOCK you made a cover of this 😂 But as a swede i am honored. You did AMAZING!! ❤

I came for the medieval theme, I stayed for the metal theme

You managed to make a cover of a song so far removed from what people expected and make it excellent. I'm now starting to realize why "Now, Colly" exists. Ride on!

This man refuses to limit himself to merely one genre and I love it.

I doubt anyone had ABBA on their Colm Cover Bingo Cards

Now I only need this man's cover of "Never gonna give you up"

Holy crap. I was surprised to see you cover this song, and then the cover itself was even more surprising. Awesome work!

Damn, this was a cover of a GRAND song... we need a cover of Bohemian Rhapsody next.

Colm can cover literally anything and it's always perfect.

A rock/metal cover of ABBA?!?!? Yes, please! ❤❤❤ Wonderful surprise and work me Cap'n! More please.

- "No one expected this, but there could be no other." This quote fits this video perfectly. As always, a lovely cover in your legendary and lovely style, thank you so much!

Goodness, how does this fit together so perfectly? Musical wizardry at its finest. Probably one of my favorite ABBA songs, this was too perfect!

"How many genres you do?" "Yes"

When I say I came *running...* Fantastic work, as always! The switch into the metal style of singing was the cherry on top! 😘👌

Holy crap, this song was stuck in my head just yesterday and now I wake up to find you made an amazing cover of it. You knocked it out of the park, my man.

I can't believe you actually turned this into a rock song! Your music is so on point man, incredible talent being able to play what you can play and your vocal range is really impressive! I've had most of your stuff on repeat for weeks, love the huge collab you did with Bobby Bass for Misty mountains as well! Your rendition of the chemical workers song is part of my morning routine. Very grateful for people like you in the world, long live the bard!

it is a MASTERPIECE. and I accept no objection. celtic metal cover of my favorite ABBA song. just thanks Colm, I know what's going to be on repeat next month. but seriously, Colm - I never get tired of being amazed by your creativity and ability to make each song your own, while still respecting the original. I send rays of warmth and sincere loads of inspiration! update: i guess i have nearly 1-2k my views of this video on repeat, and i'm not even joking.

Definitely one of those "Are you not entertained?!" moments. Yes, Colm. We most certainly are.

I didn't know I needed this type of cover until I heard it!

Was not expecting this cover from you, and certainly not this way... And that's why i loved it so much i had to comment (which i never usually do), brilliantly done sir !!! 👏👏👏

A new Colm release = a good day

Nothing says Disco like a sweater and a violin! Excellent work, Captain.

Dude, this is brilliant!! 😂 Great idea for a fresh and unique cover! Love it. It totally suits your style, too! Both the celtic-ifying and the metal-ifying of it.

Those screams were unbelievably clean, now I wanna hear you cover some metal

Gods bless my YT recommendations for offering these 3 mins of perfection a minute after release. Currently drying my hair without a hair dryer during the rock part of it 🤘🤘🤘

I really like how it goes from a folksy sound at the beginning to metal later on. That's so cool!

This guy has an impressive vocal range. You can tell he is naturally a bass, but well trained for high tenor stuff.

This took an unexpectedly badass turn, and I love it! Great work!

This is so awesome! Edit: I can't stop listening.

Epic! One of my favourite Abba songs, this cover is right up there with the original!

The song bangs like never before, can't stop dancin' 💃💃💃

oh my god... i did not expect this to go metal when i started listening to it. awesome!

Ah!!! My goodness, I never expected Colm to cover my favorite ABBA song, such a wonderful surprise. And how fun this cover is! Awesome choice!!

Oh my god everything this man does is amazing! So much talent and an incredible range of vocals. I'm blown away every time. True talent my guy.

Not the cover we expected but the cover we needed

I'm a simply man. I found a channel that has irish shanty traditional music, with Disney songs, ABBA and metal, I subscribe.

Wonderfully executed once again. You seep talent, good sir, and I applaud you.

Started off quiet, then went HARD! That's what I like to see when covering certain kinds of songs, and this is beyond what I expected.

Dude! That was awesome!!! 😈

So glad Colm and Jonathan Young are getting along. :)))

As a fan of your voice and of ABBA, I was sceptic what to expect from this cover, but, well done Sir, well done :D

Absolutely Brilliant

A surprise, to be sure, but a welcome one! You knocked it out of the park, as aways 👌

Incredible! Love the interpretation and the editing is FIRE!!!

Not what I expected. Much better! Fantastic

I didn't know what I should expect with this one. Couldn't even think how you might be able to cover this with your style. Oh my goodness. This was fantastic!!! Taking your pub style and rock, this was perfect. Even before you switched to rock I was greatly enjoying. I will be adding this to my playlist immediately.

Мистер МакГиннесс как всегда прекрасен. Сколько труда, сколько талантов, человек-симфония. Браво 👏🏻

Oh. My. GOD. I. My jaw literally dropped at that switch and stayed dropped the whole song. I... you... how... Incredible.

I wasn’t really a big fan of ABBA og version. This really surpassed every expectation! 10/10 😎

Colm in a white junper: "We're doing a cover of ABBA!" 😃 Colm appears in a black jumper: "It just got Metal in here."😈

I was not expecting the transition half way through 🤯 So freaking good.

YOUR VOICE 😭😭😭😭 THE RANGE, THE STYLE CHANGE. IM CRYING AAJENFKSK

This went from "gimme a man" to "gimme a daddy" 🤘

This is a change up from Colm’s usual covers, and from ABBA’s usual style- but I love it!

Didn't see this coming, then the metal transition slapped me in the face leaving a big smile :D

Oh look- another Colm banger: this is the golden era lads

So the song starts out nice and easy, and I was thinking, this is a really nice change from your usual, darker, heavier stuff. And you start screaming, and I'm like, ohmygod, YES!!!! I had no idea you could scream like that!! But it made me so happy, and it just made the cover of this song a hundred times more epic!!! I would absolutely LOVE to see you cover some heavy metal songs!!! Rock on!!

Oh, holy love, it is one of my favourites from ABBA ❤

Another banger of a cover goddamn! Good job mate.

Well that escalated quickly!! 🤣 Not sure what I was expecting but it wasn't that high start or that roaring latter part. Love it anyway - nice one! 👍😊

At this point I'm just going to say the whole world could do with a little 'Colmifying'😂

No way I just Learned about this song and now Colm is doing a rendition of it!!

the way my jaw fucking dropped when I got the notification 😭 you had no right to go this hard???

Amazing as always

I'm enjoying Colm's "I do what I want" arc

My dude you are so talented, the song works well with the traditional instruments and then that transition to metal… omg.

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS

This is something I never knew I needed. But by the gods, I never want to go back

Gimme gimme gimme more McGuinness covers

Ton chant crié metal est vraiment extraordinaire !

AWESOME!

You did it again 👏 love your unique take on the songs you do

I still would love to see your rendition of Horse Soldier, Horse Soldier Think it would be amazing

I knew it! You looked too damn innocent in the 1st bit 😂 then the metal drops 😊 freaking love this

Oh man, this takes me back. I love Abba. Great cover.

Never even thought I needed this, love ya man

Colm got the SCREAMS! Let's gooooo!

I was not expecting THIS :'D Great job

When Merlin flies in on his anime body pillow and saves the day with explosions.

I couldn't imagine what to think, but WOW! Amazing, Colm! The change was perfect

When it dropped ... dayum.

Your re-imagining of this song is *amazing*! Good on ya!👏

The range of this man is just incredible

Grinning like a fool rn, always a great day when Colm uploads

What a talented man--he did justice to this ABBA song.

This works incredibly well.

Oo i love this

Hoooly smokes! That blew me out of my shoes! WOW!!!

Love the little change during the middle

was not prepared for the metal, but was pleasantly surprised🤘

Awesome 😊😊😊😊

Absolutely amazing cover!!!!

LOVE THIS SO MUCH!
