Seems like so long ago… but “The Cup Song” was huge last summer!
All of my summer campers were tapping plastic cups & clapping all summer.
And now this version is floating around the Internet… a new Irish Gaelic version of
“You’re Gonna Miss You When I’m Gone” with 600 kids hand-popping their cups!
It’s a great video, and a beautiful version of the catchy little ditty!

Click here for the fun-loving Irish Gaelic, cup-popping, hand-clapping video.

And for those of you who live in a bubble and have never seen the original “Cup Song” video, or the movie “Pitch Perfect”, click here for the original movie video clip.

And if you would like to learn how to do it yourself… click here for a video tutorial.

I love this! The first time I heard this song was on “Pitch Perfect,” and it was wonderful, but to have this done by a bunch of kids in Ireland, in Gaelic? Awesome!
