Phil Lynott (song)

"Phil Lynott" is a 2008 single by the Irish band Jape, taken from the Choice Music Prize-winning third studio album, Ritual. Released on 19 December 2008, Jape fans were behind an unsuccessful online petition to establish the song as the Christmas number one in the Irish Singles Chart. "Phil Lynott" was well-received, with critics generally regarding it as one of the finer songs on the Ritual album and the Irish Independent naming it the best Irish song of the year.
