"Happy Baltimore" goes viral

The West Cork village of Baltimore has gone viral courtesy of a YouTube video showing locals dancing to Happy by Pharrell Williams. The 'Happy in Baltimore' video which was recorded the Sunday after the last big storm in Baltimore has already clocked up more than 9,000 views on YouTube. Filmed by local wedding videographer Colin Hickey, the video was the brainchild of Sheelagh Broderick, an artist and local HSE health promotion officer. Both say that no-one could have expected the level of input from local people on the day of filming or the reaction online since then.
