Christopher, Mic - Heyday Lyrics






For the sun, for the light
For the ride and for the masters
We come to be kind
To be warm here and after
We've been out but we're back
Because we're graced in these matters
And we'll rise
And we did a little love
But we walked
We make a sound for the mesto
Make a little call to the right
To the ball and to the mast-top
And we

We fool around now and again
We're looking good
But just as friends

And this is our heyday baby
And we're not gonna be afraid to shout
'Cause we can make our heyday last forever
And ain't that what it's all about
Oh living, in our own terrible way

And we lack a little love, but a sign
A sign to get a little messed up
Picking up the rules, for the chimes
Making up minds and making it last us
'Cause we live alone, and now we're grown
And we know what we're after
And we'll rise

We fool around now and again
We're looking good
But just as friends

And this is our heyday baby
And we're not gonna be afraid to shout
'Cause we can make our heyday last forever
And ain't that what it's all about

We fool around now and again
We're looking good
But just as friends
So we have ourselves a break
And when we're done
And we come to our senses
And we'll rise
Oh, and we'll rise

'Cause this is our heyday baby yeah
This is our heyday baby
This is our heyday baby yeah yeah

    Michael fassbender

  13. L.... 1....

    He seemed effortlessly shit cool

  14. D.... G....

    He went to my school remember we call set in the halla and sang that

  15. L.... C....

    He's my third cousin RIP Mic Christopher🙏🏻❤️😘

    L.... C....

    R. I.P Mic I visited Mic's grave 2 months ago and I have a video of visiting his grave on my YouTube channel here!!!!!!! You were the legend Mic we love you!!!!!!!!!

    L.... C....

    He was very special and always remembered . Clondalkin forever

    L.... C....

    @Ryan Settani
    And here we have one of THOSE special f*cking gobshites that should be taken from the gene pool. People as dumb as you didnt survive past infancy before modern medicine but you think the earth is flat and that Mic was sacrificed because somebody had to die for Glen Hansard and Damien Rices ASTONISHING WORLDWIDE FAME AND SUCCESS, right? Idiot.

    L.... C....

    @Tomás Ó Treasaigh 👌

  16. L.... B....

    27 people tripped and accidentally hit the dislike button with their nose

  17. L.... V....

    Mic is my dads cousin

  18. S.... P....

    This was used in a Guinness ad too.

    S.... P....

    Stu Pot if you opened your eyes you'd see the whole ad you fucking clown

  19. B.... ....

    There's another band called The mary janes also, so stick in mic christopher after it

  20. B.... ....

    if you like Mic folks, check out "the mary janes"

  21. G.... R....

    how the fuck did this cat die

    G.... R....

    Fell walking up steps and banged hes head suffering brain damage... And im not even joking

    G.... R....

    yeah he was supporting the beech boys or one of them ancient bands and tripped on stairs.

    G.... R....

    +sean mc donagh The Waterboys.

    G.... R....

    @Joanne Stazio He was supporting the waterboys? that must of being why the steps were slippy.... I'll get my coat

    G.... R....

    Jesus Christ, and everyone thinks that's an irrational fear I have.

  22. t.... ....

    this brings back memories! The guy in video looks a bit like Michael Fassbender no?

    t.... ....

    It is Michael Fassbender

    t.... ....

    From a Guinness ad, if i recall correctly

    t.... ....

    turfmonkey1 it is him

    t.... ....

    turfmonkey1 It's from the Guinness ad. He swims the Atlantic to make amends with a friend.

  23. D.... K....

    Congratulations Ireland! http://www.irishtimes.com/news/politics/same-sex-marriage-on-course-to-be-approved-by-ireland-1.2223646

  24. b.... u....

    hes such a sweet irish musician that you never here of..I heard how he died..tragic and was just a young lad ,the good die young they say,,U2 have nothing on this guy

    b.... u....

    u2 do suck but you know what i mean

    b.... u....

    +boo urns I think that's an unfortunate and unnecessary comparison given the history of irish american culture and the centrality of U2 to that culture in the modern era, on top of this being a central theme to the setting of this ad.
    The mic christopher story is tragic, and this tv ad is a really nice tribute to a young talented irish musician.

    b.... u....

    +boo urns he was my dads uncle

    b.... u....

    boo urns There's always one gobshite)))

    b.... u....

    boo urns amen he is OBVIOUSLY A CHILD OF GOD & U2 ARE THE TARES OF THE SCRIPTURES COMING TO THEIR END!!!!!!!

  25. S.... ....

    RIP MIK

  26. d.... ....

    He grow up in Clondalkin, went to the irish school my friend was in, and he died in Groningen where i lived.hes music is top class get hes album, its not only one song!!

    d.... ....

    @iiHorsess is bad what???????

    d.... ....

    @Mark Kelly You forgot to end your sentence with a full stop. If you are going to shite yourself with temper over someone elses atrocious grasp of the english language then you should use correct punctuation. Just saying, ya amadan.

    d.... ....

    @Tomás Ó Treasaigh says a man who edits his sentence first :) :) :) could you be less stereotypical and cringy with your 'put down' 🤣 😂 🤣 😂 Dickhead!

    d.... ....

    @Tomás Ó Treasaigh and I have absolutely no idea what 'shite yourself in temper' means to be honest. I'm guessing that's your way (bless) of saying I'm angry when writing my previous message to that numpty? Nothing could be further from the truth. Now if that's it I'll love you and leave you. Byeeeee

    d.... ....

    @samooskhka
    Lmfao, so editing literary mistakes is a bad thing? Whatever, ya gobshite. The 'Triggering' coming to a cinema near you (also available on pornhub).
    Edit: Just edited to make you cry delicious salty tears.

  27. r.... ....

    @tagzman619 american because of where he was born and lived for four years. he probably had little to no memory of it. Irish because both of his parents were Irish and that is where he grew up. being born in america probably played no role in who he became as a person.

  28. M.... L....

    5 people didn't have a heyday

    M.... L....

    now 40 I'm afraid

  29. S.... ....

    What a great talent. I loved this song when I was a kid. What a waste.

    S.... ....

    what waste?

    S.... ....

    His talent still lives

    S.... ....

    @donnod2 Amen.

  30. k.... ....

    American or Irish or American/Irish, who gives a flying F"%£^, its a great song, its sad that a potentially great musician passed before his time RIP

  31. I.... M....

    timeless Irish classic

  32. g.... ....

    R.I.P from NZ
