St Patrick's Day



Liam Neeson narrates this gorgeous tourism ad for Ireland. The actor is a big softy when it comes to St Patrick's Day. The tough-guy actor provides a heartfelt voiceover for this 60-second Discover Ireland tourism spot, waxing poetic about his homeland.
"Every year, on St. Patrick's Day, the world goes green," he begins, as landmarks like the Leaning Tower of Pisa, Sydney Opera House and Paris' Moulin Rouge, all lit in emerald hues, flash by. "But here in Ireland," he continues, "every day is bathed in green."
We're treated to shots of rugged coasts, crescent hills and verdant forests, along with city scenes of bustling nightlife, shopping and parades. #GoGreen4PatricksDay is the hashtag.
