Well Holy God! Did ya ever think there’d be another Miley to rival our own Miley Byrne? Apparently Myley Cyrus is a young actress/singer who stars “as Miley Stewart/”Hannah Montana” in the television series Hannah Montana on the Disney Channel.” I’d never hear of her before coming across this post on WordPress.com but what do you know, she’s famous! That explains all those Hannah Montana lunchboxes in the shops.
Meanwhile, the real Miley was a character in the Irish soap Glenroe that enthralled the Irish nation during the 80′s and 90′s. Mick Lally who played the character recently joined TG4′s Ros na Run. Must set that up to record later. He also released a single that flew up the charts to hit the no. 1 spot in Ireland. Check it out on Youtube. There is also an atrocious remix of the Glenroe theme song by Dustin. Oh dear, prepare to have your ears assaulted if you click that link!
A song from the series, The By-Road to Glenroe, performed by Mick Lally, was released as a single in Ireland in 1990, featuring the Jim Lockhart version of the theme tune as its B-side, and reached Number 1 in the Irish singles chart.
I did a double take when I heard about Miley Cyrus, thinking of Miley from Glenroe of course. The same happened when I first heard Fergie on the radio. I thought, “she doesn’t have such a bad voice for a British Royal.”

I’m just waiting for Miley Cyrus to fall from grace. these tween pop stars always do in such a dramatic way. it will be funny to watch her become a complete shlag like Charlotte Church did.
Doesn’t Miley byrne have a photographic memory?

Dan – I’ve never heard her speak, let alone sing. Not in any rush to hear her anyway so I’ll wait until Irish radio picks up her latest single. Shouldn’t be long I expect.

Donncha, do you remember that awful line dancing song from a few years back ‘Achy Breaky Heart’ by Billy Ray Cyrus? Yes, he is Miley’s dad.
